Chapter 370 This guy is pretty brave.
In Yaoyue's view, there were arrows embedded in the mountain walls inside the cave.
Clearly, the trigger that everyone had heard earlier was these arrows.
After her gaze swept over the arrows on the mountain wall, Yaoyue suddenly raised her hand, her five fingers curling into claws. With skillful force and true energy, she pulled an arrow that was more than half-buried from the mountain wall into her hand.
But the moment the arrow landed in her hand, Yaoyue narrowed her eyes slightly.
"This arrow is actually made of fine iron."
Upon hearing Yaoyue's words, Dongfang Bubai and Shuimu Yinji, who were standing nearby, clearly understood what Yaoyue meant.
After pondering for a moment, Dongfang Bubai flicked his finger, sending a burst of energy towards the mountain wall.
However, when the energy struck the wall, it only left a mark an inch deep on the mountainside.
In response, Dongfang Bubai said, "This mountain wall is harder than ordinary rocks, yet this arrow was able to penetrate half of the wall. The force inside is probably something that even ordinary Grandmaster or even Great Grandmaster level martial artists would find difficult to withstand head-on."
At this moment, Zhu Yuyan spoke up: "It is said that the Yang Gong Treasure Vault was designed by Lu Miaozi, who is known as the 'Number One Craftsman in the World.' As a master of mechanisms, Lu Miaozi's traps and mechanisms are extremely ingenious and powerful, even comparable to those of the Tang Clan of the Ming Dynasty. Even a martial artist at the Celestial Realm might be injured by these traps if he is not careful."
"Therefore, Young Master Chu, you'd better be careful in this Yang Gong Treasure Vault!"
Chu Qinghe chuckled and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Empress Yin."
After a brief discussion, Yaoyue glanced around the cave once more.
At this point, the cave was not a straight path with only an entrance and an exit, but rather had nine entrances in total.
Judging from the current situation, if one goes to the wrong entrance, the road ahead will surely be full of traps.
Therefore, after turning her gaze away, Yaoyue looked at Chu Qinghe and asked, "What's the next step? Should we deal with the Bad Commander here first?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qinghe slowly said, "Now that we've confirmed that there are so many traps inside Yang Gong's treasure vault, why should we act as stepping stones for others?"
Listening to what Chu Qinghe said, Qu Feiyan asked, "Does that mean we should go out now and wait for the Bad Guys to come in so we can scout ahead and take care of these traps?"
Chu Qinghe nodded and said, "Pretty much, but you don't need to go out. There are hiding places everywhere in here. Just hide well."
As he spoke, Chu Qinghe glanced around and then focused his attention on the southwest corner.
"That's a good location."
Upon hearing Chu Qinghe's words, the group turned around and stood on a rock that was nearly ten feet high and three feet long.
Compared to other locations, this rock is situated in a corner of the cave, so no matter which of the other nine entrances a person enters the cave to move to, they will not end up behind this particular spot.
As everyone's attention was focused on the rocky area, Chu Qinghe suddenly raised his right hand and seemingly casually slapped the mountain wall in front of him.
As Zhu Yuyan and the others observed, the arrows that had originally been more than halfway embedded in the mountain wall were now completely embedded into the mountain wall under the force of these thrusts.
Throughout the entire process, Jellyfish Yin Ji was unable to sense any fluctuations in Chu Qinghe's true essence.
After pushing all the arrows made of fine iron into the surrounding mountain walls, Chu Qinghe slowly walked towards the distant rocks.
Upon seeing this, Dongfang Bubai, Shuimu Yinji, and the other women simultaneously lifted their feet and followed.
Zhu Yuyan frowned slightly at Chu Qinghe's opinion, but quickly concealed it, and instead followed behind Chu Qinghe without saying a word.
During the process, Chu Qinghe continued to gently fan himself with his folding fan. The concealing powder also silently mixed into the energy with this movement, brushing past Zhu Yuyan and the others, and entering their bodies along with their breath.
At this moment, Wanwan asked doubtfully, "But the leader of the Bad Guys is among the people who will come in later. Even if we hide in here, it won't do us any good, will it?"
After all, the Bad Commander was a martial artist who had reached the peak of the Divine Seat Realm, and his martial arts golden core had been condensed.
Such a person's six senses are far beyond those of ordinary people.
Even standing at the entrance of the cave leading from Wulou Temple to Yang Gong's treasure vault, one could probably hear the heartbeats and breathing of Chu Qinghe and the others.
Naturally, in Wanwan's view, even if they hid, it would be difficult to hide from the Bad Commander.
In response, Chu Qinghe slowly said, "Unless he comes over on his own initiative, he won't be able to notice."
Once everyone was standing behind the rocks, Chu Qinghe picked up his folding fan again, and only after his true essence flowed through his right hand did he slowly fan himself a few times.
Suddenly, a gentle breeze arose, stirring up the dust on the ground.
The dust completely covered the footprints left by the group as they moved.
At this moment, Wanwan exclaimed softly, "After you fanned it a couple of times, it seems to have removed some of the dampness in this cave. Now the air in the cave smells much fresher."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Yuyan and the ten elders of the Yin Kui Sect subconsciously took a few deep breaths, realizing that what Wanwan said was true.
Although the cave was still damp, it felt much better than before.
If everyone previously felt like the damp, stuffy feeling of a summer day after a rain, then now Wanwan and the others felt like they were in the countryside after a spring rain.
However, before Wanwan could figure it out, she saw that Dongfang Bubai and the other girls beside her were all looking at her strangely.
