ing scales, neatly covering Chen Ping's body, not a single one out of place."How could this be"Ning Hai was astonished. Just a few days ago, Chen Ping's indestructible golden body had nearly shattered...Chen Ping discovered that this place was rarely visited because of the barrier, and it was estimated that there had been no human activity for several decades.
Many animals, seeing Chen Ping appear suddenly, were all frightened and hid away.
Chen Ping walked slowly forward along the valley, occasionally glancing at the surrounding peaks. Since someone had set up a barrier here, there must be something they didn't want people to see.
Chen Ping had been walking for over half an hour when a straight mountain peak blocked his path. This must be the end of Yaosheng Valley, but to climb out of the valley from this mountain peak would be nearly impossible. The almost hundred-meter high peak stood straight up, and even martial arts masters wouldn't be able to climb it.
"Is there nothing here"
Chen Ping's brow furrowed slightly, and then his divine sense spread out. A radius of hundreds of meters appeared in Chen Ping's mind.
Soon, Chen Ping found a cave on the side of the mountain peak, about ten meters high. However, because it was hidden by trees, Chen Ping didn't notice it. If he hadn't used his divine sense to investigate, Chen Ping wouldn't have found it.
Chen Ping slightly exerted force on his feet, leaping into the cave mouth with a single bound. The entrance was small, barely big enough for one person to squeeze through. To prevent any unforeseen incidents, Chen Ping used his divine sense to scan inside the cave and found nothing unusual.
There wasn't any sense of life, no living creatures within the cave. There was also no trace of spiritual energy emanating from it, proving there were no treasures inside. However, since he had already arrived, Chen Ping decided to go in and take a look anyway.
Slowly extending his right hand, a ball of flame beat in Chen Ping's palm, instantly illuminating the cave entrance.
Chen Ping walked into the cave and saw that it was very dark and damp inside. The stone walls were covered with moss, and irregular stones were piled everywhere, clearly indicating that someone had lived there.
Borrowing the light from the flames, Chen Ping slowly walked inside. After walking more than twenty meters, the cave began to become dry, and then suddenly it became open in front of him, revealing a hall like dozens of square meters.
In the middle of the hall, there was a table with candles on it, though they had long since burned out. On one side of the hall, some household items could be seen, but they were covered in thick dust.
When Chen Ping shifted his gaze to the other side, he was startled. He saw a thin old man with wrinkles all over his face sitting cross-legged on a stone bench.
The old man's eyes were slightly closed, completely still. His white beard was half a meter long, but his body was covered in dust, clearly showing that he hadn't moved for a very long time.
Chen Ping calmed his mind and enveloped the old man with his divine sense. Only then did he realize that the old man had long since stopped breathing. No wonder Chen Ping hadn't detected any aura outside the cave entrance just now.
But looking at the elder's appearance, it was as if he had just achieved enlightenment. He seemed lifelike. In front of the elder lay a yellowed book, its pages covered in dust.
Chen Ping blew gently, scattering the dust from the yellowed pages of the book. The words on the page became visible.
Supreme Elixir of Immortality!
Chen Ping looked at the book in front of him, feeling very curious. Could this be a book about alchemy Were all the entries alchemical formulas
Chen Ping slowly picked up the yellow-covered book.
But the moment Chen Ping's hand touched the book, it suddenly burst into flames, instantly burning it to ashes.
Chen Ping was taken aback, instantly feeling remorse. He had thought it was his own carelessness, that the flames from his palm had ignited this alchemy manual.
Just when Chen Ping was frustrated, a flash of inspiration suddenly struck him, and countless formulas for alchemy appeared in his mind.
"Young man, you have inherited my supreme Dan Lu (presumably a manual of alchemy), and you must carry on the legacy of our Yaosheng Valley…"
A raspy, aged voice echoed in Chen Ping's mind, laced with a sense of weariness and timeworn experience.new there was nothing he could do.And for these undead, it is a release.But just as the flames burned, a sinister aura emanated from the undead. The sacred fire, capable of consuming all things, extin...
