"I'm so incredibly unlucky! I initially thought they were just some insignificant little group, but I never imagined they'd be backed by a major figure from the Eternal Realm..."

The youth in the golden robe looked dejected, and the thought of ending his own life even crossed his mind. He had been far too arrogant before; this time, he had truly provoked an existence he couldn't afford to offend.

His face ashen, an intense urge to die washed over the golden-robed young man. He knew he was doomed this time.

"Master, is this Ancient Dragon Cave Map genuine or not?" the Bloody Overlord Demonic Dragon asked from the carriage.

"I'm not sure," Ye Yun replied, his gaze fixed on the ancient map, deep and profound, seeming to flicker like flames. He suddenly glanced at the golden-robed youth and instantly read his memories.

The golden-robed young man hadn't lied. This Ancient Dragon Cave Map had indeed been obtained by his ancestors. Despite it having been passed down through many generations, his family had never managed to comprehend this Ancient Dragon Cave Map. However, one of their ancestors had once entered the Nether Immortal Ancient Land and discovered a place there that bore a striking resemblance to a location marked on the Ancient Dragon Cave Map. Despite the similarity, they hadn't found any treasure.

This time, the golden-robed young man's objectives were to find the Divine Element Longevity Fruit and to further explore the Nether Immortal Ancient Land, hoping to locate the Dragon Clan's hidden treasure. But now, his life was forfeit. He had no choice but to offer this Ancient Dragon Cave Map in exchange for his life.

"I'll spare your life. You can scram," Ye Yun said suddenly.

The Mana binding the golden-robed youth instantly vanished. To Ye Yun, killing or sparing a mere Destiny Realm cultivator was inconsequential. He decided he would erase portions of the golden-robed youth's memories, including those concerning Luo Li, Big Black Cat, and the others. That should prevent any future complications. In the version of events Ye Yun would leave in the youth's mind, he had fled the Nether Immortal Ancient Land due to an attack by a large number of Shadow Crows, an attack that had claimed the lives of all his subordinates.

"Thank you, Senior, for sparing my life!" The golden-robed youth, never having expected to survive such a desperate situation, quickly kowtowed three times to Ye Yun, then turned and vanished into the sky.

"Master, is the Dragon Clan's treasure hoard indicated on the map this fellow provided really within the Nether Immortal Ancient Land?" Big Black Horse asked curiously.

"I'm not sure. However, since Little Black Cat is also here, we can examine this map once we return..." Ye Yun handed the map to Big Black Cat.

"Rest assured, Master. I will definitely complete the task you've assigned me," Big Black Cat declared solemnly.

"Alright, then. You should head back now!" Ye Yun waved his hand.

Before Big Black Cat could react, he felt the world shift around him, and in the next instant, he found himself standing before the entrance to the Bronze Door of the Nether Immortal Ancient Land.

Such a powerful space-tearing Divine Skill! When will I ever be as powerful as Master? Big Black Cat gave a wry laugh, then transformed into a streak of light and shot through the Bronze Door.

Ye Yun returned to the carriage and closed his eyes, the image of the Ancient Dragon Cave Map appearing in his mind. This Ancient Dragon Cave Map exuded an extremely ancient and remote aura. Ye Yun also noticed a very small, unique Dragon Clan character on the back of the map. It was the character for 'dragon'. This character was one that cultivators of the Cangnan Continent would not recognize; they would likely dismiss it as a mere decorative pattern. But Ye Yun recognized it. This proves that this Ancient Dragon Cave Map... was genuinely the work of a Divine Dragon. But why would it draw a map? What secrets does it hold? Could this Divine Dragon have wanted to leave its legacy behind?

Ye Yun was somewhat curious, but he had no clues at the moment. Coincidentally, the juniors have already gone to the Nether Immortal Ancient Land for training, so I can have Big Black Cat try to find some clues. If this so-called Dragon Cave really is in the Nether Immortal Ancient Land, that would be absolutely perfect. If it isn't, then it must be hidden somewhere else on the Cangnan Continent, and we'll still have a chance to look for it later.

Having mulled it over for a while and formed a plan, Ye Yun closed his eyes and began cultivating a new Divine Skill. Meanwhile, his avatar remained within Luo Li's consciousness.

Luo Li and the others had been flying through the black fog for some time. Seeing that no cultivators were pursuing them, they stopped to wait for Big Black Cat.

"The Nine-tailed Spirit Cat... he hasn't run into any trouble, has he?" Jun Moxiao asked with a worried expression, looking back in the direction they had come from.

"He should be fine. He has the Emperor Artifact Walking Boots. Even if he couldn't defeat them, escaping wouldn't be a problem. I suspect he probably lured them off in another direction," Su Wanyi mused.

"He's back!" Cat Baby, who was observing their surroundings with the Heavenly Spirit Mirror, suddenly spotted a familiar figure and cried out in joyful surprise.

Everyone instantly felt a wave of relief.

A streak of black light pierced the fog and landed before them in an instant.

"Sect Master, I'm back," Big Black Cat said excitedly, his expression one of extreme elation. He'd gone out for a bit, and the Master had given him a new task! If he completed it well and found this 'Dragon Cave,' it would be a truly great achievement!

"Did you manage to lead those people away?" Luo Li asked, scrutinizing Big Black Cat. Seeing he was uninjured, she finally relaxed.

"I wiped out almost all of them. Only that fellow in the golden robe escaped," Big Black Cat said with a smug grin. He didn't hide anything and recounted everything that had happened outside. After all, Luo Li was the current Sect Master of the Dragon God Sect. Since he, Big Black Cat, was now holding the Ancient Dragon Cave Map and would be searching for the supposed Dragon Cave within the Nether Immortal Ancient Land, he naturally had to inform Luo Li. They were a small team that always acted in unison, and as such, they naturally had to follow the Sect Master's arrangements.

"So, there's actually a Dragon Cave hidden within the Nether Immortal Ancient Land?" After listening to Big Black Cat's account, Luo Li examined the Ancient Dragon Cave Map for a moment before handing it back to him. This map is very important; it's best to let Big Black Cat keep it.

"Senior Sister Luo Li, we should get going," Jun Moxiao reminded her from the side.

"Let's go!" Luo Li waved her hand, and the group flew forward once more.

They flew for an hour. Fortunately, they didn't encounter any attacks from strange creatures. However, Mu Qing's complexion was steadily worsening.

"Sect Master, this black fog's poison is truly bizarre," Mu Qing sighed.

"Yes, I feel unwell too," Cat Baby chimed in, nodding. Her small face was veiled by a faint layer of black gas.

"Strange, why do I feel perfectly fine?" Big Black Cat scratched his head, chuckling awkwardly.

What should we do? Luo Li turned around. Seeing Cat Baby's and Mu Qing's faces darkening, she couldn't help but worry.

"Sect Master, please don't worry too much. While the black fog's poison isn't immediately lethal, it's said that a Super Sect within the Nether Immortal Ancient Land has built many Heavenly Mechanism Towers. These towers not only offer temporary shelter but can also expel the toxins from one's body," Mu Qing said with a thoughtful smile.
