Chapter 464
"Yin Qi, save me, we are in..."
Ye Fan's cry for help came from the token, but it stopped abruptly before he could finish, and it was mixed with Pang Bo's angry roar and the sound of intense fighting.
Yin Qi's eyes narrowed, and he hurriedly started to calculate.
Half a month ago, Duan De came from the Central Region and found Ye Fan and Pang Bo, saying they were going to the Taichu Ancient Mine to explore and find treasures, and the Black Emperor also clamored to go. Ye Fan even asked him if he wanted to go together, but was refused by Yin Qi.
So the three of them and the dog went to the Taichu Ancient Mine.
But he didn't expect that they would encounter danger so soon, and it seemed they had fallen into someone's ambush.
"Hmm!"
Soon, Yin Qi's expression sank, because he actually felt the heavenly secrets were chaotic, as if someone had forcibly disturbed the heavenly secrets.
In the Zhetian world, especially the Big Dipper star domain, there are not many people who cultivate the path of heavenly secrets; they can be counted on one's fingers.
He is skilled in the art of heavenly secrets, which is not a secret either.
Therefore, this matter is very likely using Ye Fan and the others as bait, but actually targeting him; otherwise, it would be impossible to deliberately disturb the heavenly secrets.
"The wind will surely destroy the tree that stands above the forest."
"With you here, the geniuses of all parties on the Big Dipper Star will never have a day to stand out. Do you think they can tolerate that?"
The old Palace Master's words appeared in his mind again.
"It seems that someone can't hold back anymore."
Yin Qi whispered to himself, his eyes cold.
Since they want to lure him out, he will grant their wish.
He wants to see exactly which forces have joined hands to want to get rid of him.
Of course, Yin Qi would not be arrogant and go to the Taichu Ancient Mine without any preparation. He found Yan Ruyu and said directly: "Princess, I need to borrow your Chaos Green Lotus."
"Good!"
Yan Ruyu readily agreed and handed the Chaos Green Lotus to Yin Qi, only then asking: "What happened?"
With Yin Qi's cultivation, he wouldn't borrow an Emperor Weapon unless he was facing a difficult situation.
Yin Qi took the Chaos Green Lotus and said in a deep voice: "I just received a call for help from Ye Fan; they are in danger. I wanted to calculate their location, but found the heavenly secrets were chaotic. There should be an expert in the path of heavenly secrets who made a move to disturb the heavenly secrets, and the target is very likely me, to lure me away from the Heavenly Palace."
He is not like Ye Fan and the others, who like to roam around.
If they want to make a move on him, they must first find a way to lure him away.
Yan Ruyu's expression became serious, and she hurriedly said: "Is it those ancient races, especially the Kun Zhou Great Saint? If they are truly dealing with you, one Great Saint won't be enough; there should be many forces united. If you go like this, wouldn't you be falling right into their trap?"
"That's why I came to borrow the Emperor Weapon."
Yin Qi said: "There is only the thief who steals for a thousand days, not the one who guards against the thief for a thousand days. Since they have made a move, let's take this opportunity to beat them thoroughly so they won't dare to have bad thoughts again."
In fact, he came to borrow the Emperor Weapon mainly to guard against the Dark Supremes in the Taichu Ancient Mine.
With the Heavenly Palace, even if several Great Saints besieged him, he would be invincible.
Yan Ruyu knew she couldn't persuade Yin Qi, so she said: "I'll let Grandma Liu follow you."
Grandma Liu is the Saint King by her side.
Yin Qi shook his head: "No need, taking her would be a burden instead. After I leave, you should activate the sect-protecting array. Unless the Emperor Weapon is fully revived, even a Great Saint won't be able to break in."
Yan Ruyu nodded and instructed: "Be careful on the way."
The Big Dipper has seven life forbidden zones, which are the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land, Taichu Ancient Mine, Cangqiong (Burial Heaven Island), Immortal Tomb, Divine Ruins, Undying Mountain, and Sea of Reincarnation.
Among them, the Taichu Ancient Mine is only in the Northern Region of the Eastern Wasteland.
This was originally a huge source mine, but because Supremes lurk deep inside, it has become a forbidden land.
Among them, the Dark Supremes include the Corpse Emperor (originally one of the giants of the Underworld), Qilin Ancient Emperor, Blood Phoenix Ancient Emperor, Wanlong Emperor, Golden Ancient Emperor, and four unnamed Supremes, totaling nine.
It can be said that among the seven life forbidden zones, the Taichu Ancient Mine has the most lurking Supremes, because it is rich in Taichu Life Stones, which contain endless vitality and the mystery of life, which is of great benefit to the Supremes' slumber.
Outside the Taichu Ancient Mine, large areas of land are almost all occupied by major Sacred Lands, and it is the most productive source mine area.
This land is reddish-brown and barren, completely a wasteland.
Source City.
A city standing outside the Taichu Ancient Mine.
It is located within the range of the source mine area and was built by cultivators; there are no mortals here, mostly disciples of major forces and people transporting source stones.
Because of the geographical advantage, a large number of gambling stone workshops have naturally gathered here, and major Sacred Lands all have branches here.
Although the Taichu Ancient Mine is dangerous, there has never been a shortage of people throwing themselves into the fire, rushing to the Taichu Ancient Mine one after another. Some are purely for curiosity, some are to go inside to find treasures, and others go inside to find opportunities.
In fact, many powerhouses choose to go deep into the Taichu Ancient Mine in their later years, hoping to find opportunities to extend their lifespan or break through, but unfortunately, many go in, and very few can come out.
Ye Fan and the others going into the Taichu Ancient Mine will most likely start from here.
In fact, Yin Qi is not very worried about Ye Fan and the others; none of the three people and the dog are simple, especially the Black Emperor and Duan De, who both have many life-saving techniques.
Yin Qi walked out of the void and entered Source City, pretending to inquire about the whereabouts of Ye Fan and the others.
He did this, of course, to tell the masterminds that he had arrived.
Ye Fan and Pang Bo are famous people in the Eastern Wasteland. Through the relationships of the Jiang family and the Yaochi Sacred Land, Yin Qi soon found out about Ye Fan and the others: about eleven days ago, they followed a guide to the Taichu Ancient Mine.
The Taichu Ancient Mine is divided into inner mines and outer mines.
The inner mine is the core area of the Taichu Ancient Mine, and because Supremes are lurking there, there is basically no way out.
As for the outer mine, although there are various dangers, after generations of exploration, some safe routes have been explored. Many guides make a living by this route, taking some people who like curiosity to turn around in the outer mine area.
Refusing the guides of the two families, Yin Qi recorded several safe routes and left the city to head to the Taichu Ancient Mine.
Passing through a large uninhabited area and walking through the boundless Gobi, Yin Qi arrived at the periphery of the Taichu Ancient Mine, which was less than a thousand miles away from the Taichu Ancient Mine.
There is nothing here; the earth is red as blood and barren.
It has been like this since ancient times; desolation is the eternal theme.
Gravel is everywhere, and the occasional stone mountain is as red as blood and as lonely as a tombstone.
The key is that when he arrived here, Yin Qi keenly felt the abnormality of the energy here. He opened his Po Wang Eye, and the scene before him was colorful and magnificent, with energy of various colors evolving into various visions.
Sometimes peaceful like a fairyland, sometimes gloomy like hell, or murderous like a tide.
These are all naturally evolved from the energy of heaven and earth.
Especially when he looked deep into the Taichu Ancient Mine, nine purple divine rays shot into the sky, no one knew how high, like divine pillars as if they wanted to penetrate the universe.
Yin Qi knew that those were the fortune essences of the nine Supremes; they were lurking in the deepest part of the ancient mine.
There, endless immortal light was steaming, evolving into layers of heavenly palaces and immortal towers.
