124 Chapter 123/stone tablet
It was a ruined swamp.
A faint greenish-black mist filled the air.
Qin shujian took a step onto the swamp. He poured his quintessential essence into his legs so that he would not sink into it.
This was only one of the uses of true essence.
As a true martial realm expert …
No matter which level it was, it was far from what the martial entry-level could compare to.
“This is the location of the unknown cave!”
Qin shujian’s expression didn’t change much as he looked at the swamp around him.
The greenish-black mist was a result of mixing marsh gas with other poisons all year round.
If an ordinary person entered this place without any means to avoid poison, they would die from the poison in just a short while.
Even those at the martial entry-level.
As long as one’s qi and blood had not reached the peak level, they would also be unable to resist the poisonous gas here.
Even people at martial entry-level six and above would find it difficult to maintain it if they stayed for too long.
However …
All of these restrictions were only limited to the martial entry-level.
After all, this was a swamp that was born in the mortal domain.
Even stronger.
Most of them revolved around the martial entry-level.
Those who could threaten a true martial realm expert were already as rare as Phoenix Feathers and Qilin horns.
Qin shujian wasn’t sure if there were any Forbidden Lands in the Liangshan true domain that could threaten a true martial realm expert. However, he was certain of one thing.
Even if there was.
It would definitely not include the swamp in front of them.
Qin shujian followed the coordinates given by the bronze token and advanced in the swamp.
The greenish-black mist blocked out most of the sunlight.
The sunlight that shone in could only dispel a little bit of the darkness.
&Nbsp; so,
The swamp was in a dusky environment almost all year round.
Logically speaking.
This kind of environment was the easiest to breed all kinds of poisonous insects.
However, as he walked through the swamp, Qin shujian did not find any poisonous insects or any living creatures.
When he felt the tiny amount of demonic Qi in the green-black mist, he was stunned.
Qin shujian came to a realization.
At the same time.
His understanding of the demonic Qi’s ability to exterminate everything had deepened once again.
After about ten minutes.
Qin shujian stopped in his tracks. He looked at the dried up swamp before him and took out his bronze token.
The bronze token, which had not shown any signs of abnormality, suddenly emitted a green light after it was taken out, shining directly into the dry swamp.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The ground shook violently.
Under Qin shujian’s shocked gaze, the dried up swamp split open, and a stone tablet that was as tall as two people rose up from the bottom.
On the stone tablet.
Four big words were engraved on it.
Hua Ding cave abode!
“You’ve discovered the immortal’s cave, Hua Ding!”
The system’s message appeared.
Qin shujian squinted his eyes and looked at the four large words on the stone tablet. A majestic aura instantly gushed out.”Immortal’s cave, Hua Ding!”
Just from these four words.
He could tell that the person who left the stone tablet behind was definitely extraordinary.
At least …
Qin shujian felt that he was not capable of doing that.
I thought it was just a small cave abode. I didn’t expect it to involve such a powerful expert. It seems like there might be something good inside!
Soon after.
He then saw the bottom right corner of the stone tablet.
There was a depression there.
If he had to compare it, it matched the bronze token.
Qin shujian looked at the token in his hand and walked toward the stone tablet. He then inserted the token into the gap in the stone tablet.
Buzzzzzzzz!
An invisible wave spread out from the stone tablet.
Qin shujian instinctively took two steps back. He gathered his true energy and stared at the stone tablet. He was on guard against any accidents.
The words ‘immortal’s cave in the middle of the stone tablet twisted violently.
Immediately.
A crazy pulling force burst out, and the spiritual Qi floating above the undying Plains seemed to be pulled by some kind of force. It instantly broke through the barrier of the green and black fog and gathered into the stone tablet.
As the greenish-black mist broke apart …
Large amounts of sunlight spilled through the gap, dispersing most of the gloomy atmosphere in the swamp.
“That’s quite a big movement.” Qin shujian’s expression was calm.
The amount of spiritual Qi that the stone tablet could draw in was enough to affect the entire undying Plains.
The commotion was not small at all.
At least …
Anyone with some power in the Liangshan true domain should be able to sense this change.
However …
Qin shujian didn’t care how big of a commotion the stone tablet caused.
In the Liangshan true domain.
No one had the right to snatch anything in front of him.
This was his confidence as the Lord of the Liangshan territory.
&Nbsp; so,
When the stone tablet was madly pulling in the spiritual Qi of the world, Qin shujian stood by the side and watched silently, allowing it to absorb as it pleased.
As the spiritual energy of heaven and earth continued to surge in …
A dense light gradually appeared on the stone tablet, like a Whirlpool.
This change.
It lasted for half an hour.
Qin shujian’s expression was getting impatient.
The stone tablet had been absorbing for so long, but there was still no sign of it stopping. The scene in front of him also told him that the cave dwelling had not truly opened.
One had to know.
Following the true Dominion’s advancement, the heaven and earth Spirit Qi had become several times richer than before.
Under such circumstances, the stone monument still needed to absorb the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth for so long.
If it was in the mortal domain.
Qin shujian estimated that it would probably take at least half a day.
Suddenly.
His ears twitched slightly as he looked up into the distance. There, three figures were speeding towards him.
Each of them exuded a strong aura.
Even with Qin shujian’s eyesight, he could tell that the three figures were two men and one woman.
Qin shujian didn’t wait for the three of them to get close before he suddenly thrust his palm out.
His vital essence instantly turned into a huge palm print, crushing towards the three people.
The terrifying power stopped the three of them in their tracks. They looked at the palm print in shock.
At the same time.
An angry roar sounded in his ears.
“Get lost!”
It was a simple word, but it shook their blood and Qi until they scattered.
Immediately after.
The palm print was about to hit him.
The three of them couldn’t even resist and were sent flying backward by the palm print.
He was sent flying for dozens of meters before he fell into the swamp.
As soon as they landed, the three of them realized that they had not suffered any serious injuries. They immediately turned around and fled out of the swamp.
They were not stupid.
It was obvious that the person who had attacked him had been merciful.
Otherwise …
With that terrifying strength, he could definitely take the lives of the three of them in one move.
With such an expert present, the three of them no longer dared to think about the strange phenomenon in the swamp.
After he had escaped far away.
The two men and one woman finally stopped.
Huchi! Huchi!
One of the middle-aged men was panting heavily. He looked at the swamp and forest behind him with lingering fear and said in shock, “”The one who attacked just now was a true martial realm expert, right?”
“His true Qi has left his body, so he’s definitely at the true martial realm!” The other man nodded and said in shock, ” how long has it been since they advanced to the true Dominion? why are there true martial realm experts so quickly? could they be experts from the outer protectorates? ”
“Perhaps he’s from the outer domain, or perhaps he’s from our Liangshan true domain.”
“Could it be …”
The three of them looked at each other and suddenly stopped talking.
It would be fine if it was an expert from the outer region.
However, if it was someone from this region …
Given that the true Dominion had just been promoted, there was no need to mention the identity of a true martial realm expert.
The woman sighed. I didn’t think that the strange phenomenon would be caused by the Lord of the Liangshan territory. With a powerful cultivator like him around, there’s nothing much we can do. If he hadn’t shown mercy, we would probably have died there.
“Let’s go, let’s go.”
The other two also understood.
On the other side.
Qin shujian retracted his palm. He looked at the three figures that were running away in a sorry state, but he did not attack again.
As for the three people who were attracted by the strange phenomenon …
He didn’t have any thoughts of killing them.
As long as the other party was tactful, Qin shujian would give them a warning and let them leave. However, if they encountered someone who was not tactful, Qin shujian would let them know what the Liangshan territory Lord’s strength was.
The stone tablet continued to absorb the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth.
During this time, several more waves of people came from all directions.
Without exception.
These people couldn’t even get close to the stone tablet before they were sent flying back by Qin shujian’s palm.
True essence leaving the body!
This was the symbol of a true martial realm expert.
For ordinary people at the martial entry realm, they might not know what the true martial realm was like.
However, the people who were attracted here were almost all the top masters in the martial entry realm.
Every single one of them.
They were all at least martial entry-level eight.
Such experts were already qualified to learn about the true Dominion, and most of them knew about the existence of the true martial realm.
Therefore, when they saw their true essence leaving their bodies, those who had some knowledge left without looking back.
He was a true martial realm expert, and he was in the undying Plains, a place close to the Liangshan stronghold.
They only needed to use their brains to think a little and they would basically know.
The person who would make a move, there was a high probability that it would be one of them.
Even if it was someone he didn’t know.
After realizing the difference in strength between the two sides, they also retreated silently.
No matter what.
Up until now, all the people who had come were still tactful. They did not allow Qin shujian to go to the point of killing.
Another hour passed.
Finally, the suction force on the stone tablet gradually weakened.
The surging spiritual energy of heaven and earth also seemed to have lost its target.
Without the tearing of the world Energy, the opening above the swamp only existed for a while before it was covered up by the dark green mist again.
The entire marshland was plunged into darkness.
After that.
The darkness only lasted for a short while before it was swept away by a warm light.
The stone tablet, which had absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy, was now emitting a dark green light, as if it was cast from Jade.
In the middle of the stone tablet.
The dense vortex slowly rotated.
A faint aura came from behind the vortex, indicating that the cave had officially opened.
Qin shujian glanced at the stone tablet a few times before he finally arrived in front of the vortex.
Sensing the aura behind the vortex, he stepped into it without much hesitation.
A magical fluctuation spread.
The moment Qin shujian’s body came into contact with the vortex …
It was as if he had been swallowed by the stone tablet, and his figure could no longer be seen.
As Qin shujian entered …
The Jade green light from the stone tablet had also suddenly weakened.
For a moment.
The swamp regained its peace.
