Immortality Cultivation: I can use my clansmen’s energy and blood to add points

Chapter 811: Further investigation, mysterious old man?

"We still need more time to study, but it can be determined that this crystal may be the key to controlling the Night Spirit Flower." Another elder added.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other, their hearts full of expectations and worries.

They knew that this crystal might be the key to unlocking the secret of the Night Spirit Flower, but it might also bring new dangers.

"Master, what should we do next?" Luo Chen asked respectfully.

The master pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "You have done a good job, but the matter of Evernight Valley is not over yet. We need more information about the Night Spirit Flower and the crystal, but before that, you should take good care of yourself."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang nodded. They knew that the master's arrangement was out of concern for them, and also to give them enough time to prepare for the next task that might be more difficult.

In the next few days, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang got enough rest and recovery in the sect.

They used this time not only to adjust their physical condition, but also to think deeply and summarize their experience in Evernight Valley.

They knew that the secrets of the Night Spirit Flower and the crystal, as well as the identity of the mysterious man, could have a profound impact on the alliance of the three forces they were in.

The elders of the sect were not idle either. They conducted various tests and studies on the crystal, trying to unlock the secrets.

Finally, in a late-night gathering, the elders summoned Luo Chen and Qing Shuang to share their research results.

"After our unremitting efforts, we found that the power contained in this crystal has a direct connection with the Night Spirit Flower." An elder said, his eyes flashing with excitement.

"Not only that, we also found that there seems to be an ancient seal hidden in the crystal, which is closely related to the withering of the Night Spirit Flower." Another elder added.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang listened attentively, they knew that this information might be the key to solving the whole mystery.

"So, how was this seal formed?" Qing Shuang couldn't help asking.

The elders looked at each other, and then slowly said: "According to our speculation, this seal may have been set by an ancient cultivator to seal a powerful force, and the Night Spirit Flower may be the key to this seal."

Luo Chen frowned, and he began to think about the relationship between this seal and the mysterious man: "So, does the mysterious man want to use the Night Spirit Flower to unlock this seal?"

"It is very likely." The sect master nodded, "If this is the case, then you stopped him and may have avoided a disaster."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other, and they felt that the responsibility on their shoulders was even heavier.

"What should we do next?"

Luo Chen asked again.

The sect master pondered for a moment, and then slowly said: "The more we investigate the matter, the more hidden things behind it seem to be beyond our expectations."

"Luo Chen, if you two are willing..."

Before the sect master finished speaking, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang had already understood what he meant.

They knew that the future of the sect might all fall on their shoulders.

"We are willing to continue investigating until the truth comes out." Luo Chen answered firmly.

Qingshuang also nodded in agreement: "We will not let the secret of the Night Spirit Flower become a threat."

The sect leader nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the elders: "So, what is the next plan?"

An elder stood up with a detailed map in his hand: "We have identified several places that may be related to the Night Spirit Flower and the crystal. These places are recorded in ancient documents and may hide more secrets about the seal."

Luo Chen and Qingshuang carefully observed the map, which marked several places they had never heard of, each circled with a red mark.

"We need to explore these places one by one." The elder continued, "But you must be careful, these places may hide unknown dangers."

"We understand." Qingshuang replied, "We will be fully prepared."

In the following days, Luo Chen and Qingshuang began to prepare for the upcoming expedition.

They collected the necessary supplies, learned the coping strategies for various situations that might be encountered, and strengthened their own cultivation.

After being fully prepared, they embarked on the journey to their first destination.

It was a place called "Ghost Valley". It was said that it was shrouded in fog all year round. Only at a certain time would the fog dissipate, revealing the road leading to the valley.

After several days of trekking, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang finally arrived at the entrance of Ghost Valley.

Just as the legend said, the entrance of the valley was shrouded in thick fog, and it was almost impossible to see the road ahead.

"We have to be careful, there may be traps hidden in this fog." Luo Chen reminded.

Qing Shuang nodded, she took out a piece of talisman paper from her waist, muttered something, and the talisman paper burned in her hand, emitting a faint light, illuminating the road ahead.

They walked into Ghost Valley carefully, and there seemed to be countless eyes watching them in the thick fog.

Luo Chen held the hilt tightly, and Qing Shuang held the talisman paper tightly in his hand, ready to deal with possible dangers at any time.

Just as they went deep into the valley, suddenly, the surrounding fog began to roll violently, and a vague figure appeared in their sight.

"Who is it?" Luo Chen shouted loudly.

The figure didn't answer, but ran towards them quickly.

As the figure approached, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang saw each other's face clearly. It was an old man with a haggard face, and his eyes revealed a look of fear and uneasiness.

It was as if something was chasing him.

"Don't be afraid, we won't hurt you." Qingshuang said softly, trying to calm the old man's emotions.

The old man gasped, as if he had just experienced a fierce chase.

He looked around, and then fixed his gaze on Luo Chen and Qing Shuang.

"Who are you?" The old man's voice was trembling and full of vigilance.

"We are disciples of the sect. We are here to investigate some things." Luo Chen replied, while remaining vigilant and observing the surrounding environment.

The old man seemed to react to the word "disciple of the sect", with a hint of complicated emotions flashing in his eyes.

"Disciples of the sect..." the old man murmured to himself, and then suddenly grabbed Luo Chen's arm, "You are here just in time. I have something important to tell you."

Luochen and Qingshuang looked at each other and realized that the old man might know some key information.

"Please tell me." Qingshuang encouraged.

The old man took a deep breath and began to tell his story: "I used to be the guardian of this valley, responsible for guarding an ancient secret. But not long ago, a group of mysterious people broke into the valley. They seemed to be looking for something. I tried to stop them. They, but their power is too strong, I can only escape here."

After Luo Chen and Qing Shuang heard this, their hearts tightened.

They realized that the mysterious man mentioned by the old man might be related to the masked monk they had met in Eternal Night Valley.

"What are they looking for?" Luo Chen asked eagerly.

The old man shook his head: "I don't know what they are looking for specifically, but they seem to be very interested in certain specific places in the valley. I once overheard them mentioning the 'Eidolon Flower' and the 'Seal' word."

Qing Shuang and Luo Chen exchanged a look, and they knew this was no coincidence.

"We are also investigating the secrets of the Eidolon Flower and a mysterious crystal stone." Qingshuang explained, "It seems that we may be pursuing the same clue."

After hearing this, a glimmer of hope flashed in the old man's eyes: "If you can stop those people, you may be able to protect the secrets of this valley from being destroyed."

Luochen nodded: "We will do our best, but before that, we need to know more about the secrets in this valley."

The old man thought for a moment, then slowly said: "Follow me, I will take you to a place."

Luochen and Qingshuang followed the old man through the Ghost Valley. They found that the fog here seemed denser than at the entrance, and they could only see a few steps away as far as they could see.

Not long after walking, the old man stopped in front of a huge stone wall.

The stone wall is covered with ancient runes, emitting a faint light.

"This is the place where secrets are kept," the old man said.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang carefully observed the stone wall, trying to decipher the runes on it.

"These runes seem to be telling an ancient story." Qingshuang said softly.

"Yes, this is a story about the Eidolon Flower and the seal." The old man's voice was a little heavy. "A long time ago, the Eidolon Flower was not what it is now. They were spiritual beings that guarded the seal, but as time passed, As time goes by, the power of the seal gradually weakens, and the Eidolon Flower also changes. "

Luo Chen frowned: "So, what is the real purpose of the seal?"

The old man sighed: "The seal is to prevent the evil energy in the cracks from eroding this land. If humans come into contact with this evil energy, they will turn into puppets who only know how to kill, and even immortal cultivators will It’s hard to avoid.”

After Qingshuang and Luo Chen heard this, their hearts sank.

They realized that the task they faced was more difficult than they imagined.

"We need to find this seal and find a way to strengthen it." Luochen said firmly.

The old man nodded: "I will do my best to help you, but first, we need to find the exact location of the seal."

Luochen and Qingshuang began to search for possible clues around the stone wall.

After a careful search, they discovered a hidden mechanism.

"It seems like a passage can be opened here." Luo Chen pointed at a groove on the stone wall and said.

The old man nodded: "Yes, this passage will take you to where the seal is."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang worked together to activate the mechanism, and the stone wall slowly opened, revealing a downward staircase.

"Be careful, there may be danger down there." the old man reminded.

Luochen and Qingshuang nodded, they lit torches and walked down the stairs.

The stairs are winding and winding, seeming to lead deep into the ground.

After walking for a while, they came to a spacious underground cave.

In the center of the cave, there was a huge stone platform, which was engraved with complex runes. In the center was a groove, the shape of which matched the crystal stone they found on the altar before.

"This is the core of the seal." The old man's voice echoed in the cave.

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang stepped forward and carefully observed the runes on the stone platform.

"These runes seem to instruct us on how to strengthen the seal." Qingshuang said.

Luo Chen nodded: "We need to find the correct crystal stone and then operate according to the instructions of the rune."

The old man took out a crystal stone from his arms and handed it to Luo Chen: "This is what I took back from those mysterious people before. Maybe it is what you need."

Luochen took the crystal and found that it was exactly the same as the crystal found on the altar before.

He put the crystal into the groove of the stone platform, and the crystal immediately merged with the stone platform, emitting a dazzling light.

After the light gradually dissipated, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang discovered that the runes on the stone platform began to move slowly, eventually forming a new pattern.

"Is this... a success?"

The old man smiled bitterly and shook his head. He whispered: "No, this is just the first step. If you really want to strengthen the seal, or completely seal the crack so that the evil energy cannot leak, you need to do other things. measure."

Luo Chen and Qing Shuang looked at each other, their hearts filled with determination and courage.

They know that every next step may be full of unknown dangers, but they also understand that this is a responsibility they must bear.

"So, what do we need to do?" Luo Chen asked.

The old man walked slowly to the stone platform and gently touched the runes with his fingers, as if he was talking to ancient wisdom.

"This seal requires a special kind of energy to activate. This energy comes from a rare ore called 'Ling Yuan Stone'." The old man explained, "Only by placing the Lingyuan Stone in a specific position on the stone platform can the seal be activated." Completely activate the seal."

Qingshuang frowned. She knew how rare the Spiritual Essence Stone was. This kind of mineral was almost extinct in the world of cultivation.

"Ling Yuan Stone...how can we find it?" Qing Shuang asked.

The old man was silent for a moment, and then slowly spoke: "The Spiritual Essence Stone is not easy to find. It is hidden in an extremely dangerous place - the 'Netherworld Abyss'. It is the place with the strongest demonic energy. Even for cultivators, It’s hard to escape intact.”

After Luo Chen and Qing Shuang heard this, their hearts sank.

They knew that the journey to the Netherworld Abyss would be full of hardships, but they also knew that this was their only choice.

"We are willing to look for the Spiritual Essence Stone." Luo Chen said firmly.

The old man nodded, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes: "Your courage is admirable. I will give you some guidance, hoping to help you complete the mission successfully."

The old man took out a yellowed map from his arms and handed it to Luo Chen.

The map marks the location of the Netherworld Abyss, as well as some possible dangerous areas.

"Remember, there is not only demonic energy in the Netherworld Abyss, but also many creatures corroded by demonic energy. They will attack all living creatures indiscriminately," the old man reminded.
