"Go, go, make a fortune early! If you don't act now, when will you..."
Ye Qiu couldn't hold back any longer and kept urging him.
The old Taoist priest was dumbfounded.
What kind of partner did I find?
I'm already completely heartless, but why do I feel like he's even less moral than me?
Is this a serious young man?
Thinking of this, the old Taoist priest was delighted, "Fuck, I have met a bosom friend."
I, an old man, have been misunderstood by the world for so many years. No one can understand me. I have gone to the cemeteries to visit those tombs that have been sealed for many years to uncover the heroic deeds they did in the past and make them public.
Instead, they misunderstood me and said that I had lost all conscience and was being punished by God.
I never expected that today I would meet a soulmate in a foreign land, a young man who shares the same ideals as me.
Like me, he has a strong interest in historical events that have happened in the past, those unknown things hidden in the dust and darkness. He wants to unravel them all and make the world bright again.
Thinking of this, the old Taoist priest burst into tears and was so moved that he was speechless for a moment.
great!
You are a great man.
"Walk……"
The emotions reached this point, and the old Taoist gradually revealed his true feelings. Just as Ye Qiu said, it is better to get rich early.
He had been observing that tomb for hundreds of years and knew it like the back of his hand. If he had not had a reliable partner to help him, he would have opened it long ago because he would not have been able to unlock the seal on his own.
When he thought of the former Immortal King buried in the tomb and forgotten in the dust of history, he felt extremely heartbroken.
No matter what, this time, he must be allowed to reappear in the eyes of the world and let everyone know how great a man he once was.
Of course, the treasures inside must belong to him, the opener. After all, this job requires payment.
Let me make it clear first, he didn't go there just to make money, he went there purely for academic interest.
Listening to his selfless speech, Ye Qiu smiled and said a few words to please him, cursing in his heart.
"You damn old man, it's just a tomb robbing, why do you have to give yourself a great title? If you don't know, you would think he is on a great mission to save the world."
Ye Qiu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. This old man was truly a rare talent, a brilliant and unique flower in the world.
The two of them were plotting together, and felt that they had met too late. In just a few words, they became friends regardless of age difference.
Through the old Taoist's statement, Ye Qiu also learned some strange stories about the universe, as well as some common sense things.
These are all useful knowledge points, Ye Qiu silently memorized them in his heart. At least... they will be of great help to him in his future adventures in the world.
During the conversation, the two passed through one void ruin after another and came to a piece of land drifting among the vast starry sky.
"This is the original land! It is a piece of original rune land in the ancient fairyland."
"Name: Spruce Highlands."
"In the past, countless ancient immortals were influenced by the original runes, and their wisdom was greatly awakened. They were the first to awaken from the chaos and embark on the journey of cultivation."
“So, this place is also known as one of the top ten origins.”
Listening to the old Taoist's explanation, Ye Qiu nodded secretly. Although they had just entered the Spruce Highlands, through observation, he had already discovered some huge creatures lurking in the mountain stream, watching all potential dangers in the dark.
It's dangerous here!
The towering spruce trees block out the sun, making this place dark and gloomy all year round.
Different from the weirdness of the ethereal fairyland, this place is filled with a strong murderous intent floating on the surface.
"Where is the Immortal King's Tomb you mentioned? Which Immortal King's tomb was it?"
Ye Qiu asked curiously.
The old Taoist priest chuckled and said, "I have been observing this tomb for a hundred years. After making inquiries from many sources, I learned that this tomb... is the tomb of a Yunshan Immortal King after the ancient immortal domain was shattered."
"This is the Spruce Highlands, where countless creatures live, and they are extremely fierce! A large number of them were once the descendants of this Immortal King giant, and they have been guarding this place for generations."
Having said this, the old Taoist's eyes became much shrewd, and he pointed at the pairs of eyes hidden in the darkness and spoke.
"Do you see those eyes? They are the watchful eyes of the Spruce Clan. Anyone who breaks into this forbidden area will be discovered by these eyes, which will trigger the alarm. In a moment, the news will spread throughout the entire Spruce Highlands."
“It’s not an easy task to sneak in here secretly, hehe…boy, we’ve known each other for so long, but I still don’t know what you are capable of.”
"If you want to get along with the old Taoist priest, it's not enough to just talk. Just treat this as the first test."
The old Taoist priest smiled evilly. Ye Qiu looked at him deeply and smiled without saying anything.
This old Taoist priest is indeed a shrewd man and very cautious.
Of course Ye Qiu noticed those eyes he was talking about!
Countless pairs of eyes in the darkness are watching every corner of the Spruce Highlands. It is not an easy task to sneak in here.
However, this is not a problem for Ye Qiu.
Through observation, he carefully discovered that when these pairs of eyes patrolled back and forth, there would be a fleeting blind spot.
As long as you seize this opportunity, you can easily pass this level of Watcher's Eye.
The old Taoist priest had been observing for so many years and obviously knew this fatal flaw, but he did not say it and let Ye Qiu discover it himself.
Ye Qiu understood what he meant. Although this shortcoming was fatal, it was very difficult to implement.
Because there are layers after layers, you have to avoid visual gaps tens of thousands of times. As you go deeper, you have to reach the next blind spot as quickly as possible during the interval, and you also have to observe the next safe point at the deepest point.
This requires incredible speed and powerful insight to achieve this.
It just so happens that Ye Qiu possesses both of these qualities.
"No problem! Please lead the way, senior."
Ye Qiu spoke confidently. The old Taoist was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Ye Qiu to be so confident. Could it be that he had observed the flaw in such a short time?
"This boy is truly extraordinary! It seems that the old Taoist priest has found the right person this time."
After being secretly surprised for a while, the old Taoist finally began to show his true strength.
The moment he withdrew his gaze, his eyes became exceptionally sharp, as if he had become a different person, completely devoid of the cynicism he had just shown.
Dressed in a black robe, suddenly... he flashed, and in the fleeting moment of opportunity, he entered the first safe blind spot.
But he didn't expect that as soon as he entered the blind spot, Ye Qiu had already followed him in like a shadow.
"Hiss... what an amazing speed!"
The old Taoist priest was really shocked. You know, it was because of the dangerous job he did that he developed such a skill to escape.
But he didn't expect that a young man would come today to challenge his job?
How could this be possible! He immediately started competing with Ye Qiu.
Both of them concealed their own breath and quickly shuttled through the darkness. Those pairs of eyes did not notice them.
