There were a few shattered magical treasures, some jade scrolls that looked ancient, and a few elixirs emitting a strange glow.
Li Yunjing picked up a jade scroll and infused it with his spiritual power to read the information inside.
"These jade scrolls record some cultivation insights; you can take a look."
A moment later, Li Yunjing furrowed his brow and handed it to Yu Yunyi.
Then, he picked up another jade scroll, but the result was equally disappointing.
"These magical treasures are so broken, theyâre probably useless."
Fu Chao picked up a shattered magical treasure, fiddled with it a bit, and impatiently put it down.
"These elixirs seem unusual, they might have healing or cultivation-enhancing effects, letâs keep them for now."
Lv Ruoxi picked up the elixirs and examined them carefully, and everyone nodded in agreement.
After checking, they didnât find anything important. Those ordinary Tier Two magical treasures, elixirs, and talismans... they were of no use to the four of them.
Everyone was already "wealthy," so it was a bit of a letdown.
"Surviving and getting out is already our biggest victory. Next, letâs continue looking for the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realmâ; I refuse to believe we canât find it."
Li Yunjing, seeing that everyone seemed a bit dejected, smiled to encourage them.
"Yes! We can definitely do it!"
Yu Yunyi and Lv Ruoxi also expressed their agreement.
"This wasnât a total loss, challenging the âOther Shore Flower Sea,â I vaguely felt some insights. This must be an opportunity! In the future, after breaking through to the Golden Core Realm, Iâll return here to explore the depths to see if itâs truly connected to Hell!"
Li Yunjing thought to himself.
The "Cyan Cloud Ship" was like a streak of light, swiftly weaving through the undulating peaks of the "Endless Mountain Range."
In the mountains, there were times when clouds and fog swirled, other times when lightning and thunder roared, and various oddly-shaped demon beasts occasionally sprang from the forest, letting out roars. But they were all left far behind by the "Cyan Cloud Ship."
It wasnât until they were far from that terrifying valley that Li Yunjing and the others disembarked from the "Cyan Cloud Ship."
They couldnât maintain flying forever.
That would be too dangerous.
In these days, over the "Endless Mountain Range," Tier Three and even Tier Four flying creatures were often seen passing by.
In such an environment, their cultivation levels werenât particularly high, nor did they have the confidence to fly around recklessly.
In the month that followed, Li Yunjing and his companions navigated through various peaks in the "Endless Mountain Range," encountering numerous challenges and even being pursued several times.
On one occasion, they were actually chased by a Tier Four demon beast.
Fortunately, this demon beast wasnât particularly interested in them, nor was it deliberately pursuing them. After obtaining enough food and having a good meal, it turned and left.
In such an environment, Li Yunjing and his companions used many of their trump cards.
By the time they had not discovered the "Celestial Ruins Secret Realm," Li Yunjingâs team had already lost about twenty percent of their combat power.
"I sense a fluctuation of mana, it seems there are other cultivators nearby."
Li Yunjing intently observed a lakeside ahead, and said in a deep voice.
Upon hearing Li Yunjingâs words, Yu Yunyi, Lv Ruoxi, and Fu Chao grew tense and tightened their grip on their magical treasures.
In such a place, encountering cultivators wouldnât likely be friendly, and a conflict could easily arise.
Everyone needed to be extremely cautious.
"What should we do, Old Li?"
Fu Chao asked.
"Letâs go take a look! Never interacting with other cultivators isnât a solution!"
Li Yunjing thought for a moment, then reminded, "Letâs continue pretending to be people from the âMyriad Poison Sectâ!"
"Yunjing, do you think this will work? Weâve already slipped up!"
Yu Yunyi asked with a worried expression.
"We have no other choice!"
Li Yunjing shrugged, smiled, and continued, "I donât know any other demon skills, so I can only choose to impersonate using poison skills. Letâs disguise ourselves like this! I think the people from the âNangong Familyâ might not be able to chase us here, right?"
"Yes, thatâs our only option!"
The other three reluctantly nodded in agreement with Li Yunjingâs suggestion.
In these areas, they definitely couldnât reveal their affiliation with the "Shenxiao Dao Sect." The only other option they had was to utilize the identity of the "Myriad Poison Sect."
"Letâs go and take a look!"
Once the three were disguised, Li Yunjing led the group towards the lakeside.
The journey of several miles didnât take long, and soon, Li Yunjing and the others arrived at the lakeside, where they saw dozens of cultivators gathered on a flat grassy area.
The attire of these cultivators varied significantly; some were dressed in elaborate Daoist robes, others in light combat gear, while some wore full armor, and there was even a demon cultivator that looked anything but friendly!
Among them, Li Yunjing and his companions even saw a bald head!
There was even a monk present here!
These dozens of people clearly came from different factions, but they all had one common trait: without exception, they emanated a strong aura, all being experts at the Foundation Establishment Realm or higher!
There were even five or six Golden Core Realm cultivators among them!
By the lake, these people had even set up simple tents, stone houses, and wooden houses, surrounded by a defense array, clearly forming a temporary base.
"Who are you, and why have you come here?"
As Li Yunjing and his companions approached, two cultivators responsible for guarding quickly surrounded them, their magical treasures gleaming coldly as they asked cautiously.
"I am Li Wutian of the âMyriad Poison Sectâ, and these are my three companions. We are undergoing training in the âEndless Mountain Rangeâ and happened to pass by this place. We sensed the mana fluctuations from fellow Daoists and decided to come over to take a look."
Li Yunjing stepped forward with a smile, "May I inquire why everyone is gathered here?"
"I see, we are cultivators from different sects, gathered here to search for the âCelestial Ruins Secret Realm.â"
The two guards exchanged a glance and put away their magical treasures. One of them, a middle-aged Daoist, said in a deep voice, "This âEndless Mountain Rangeâ is too vast, and searching for clues individually is inefficient. So we decided to collaborate and explore together."
