“Since there is a reaction from the Sound Resonating Talisman, there can generally only be two possibilities. One of them is that Chen Wuhui and his gang of people met with danger along the way. The other possibility is that they actually found the treasure.”

As he looked at the Sound Resonating Talisman that was shining continuously in mid-air, Mo Wen immediately knew that Chen Wuhui and the rest must have made some discovery.

Earlier on, Intentionless Sect and so many other sects had gone down the abyss in pursuit of the treasure of Luofeng Sect. They might not be able to find the treasures of Luofeng Sect. However, at the depths of the abyss, there was a deserted land which was bound to contain endless treasures. The appearance of any treasure at all would likely incite a fight.

Mo Wen looked up higher to where the Sound Resonating Talisman was. The Sound Resonating Talisman immediately made a buzzing noise before flying fiercely towards him.

As it passed him, Mo Wen began to follow the Sound Resonating Talisman. Through it, he could easily find the other Sound Resonating Talisman. From there, he would be able to find Chen Wuhui and the rest.

However, he had only walked about a hundred meters when the Sound Resonating Talisman stopped flying forward. Instead, it adhered to a wall, constantly emitting buzzing sounds.

“Eh, what’s going on?” A look of shock flashed through Mo Wen’s eyes. Although he could not concoct the real Sound Resonating Talisman, this piece of Sound Resonating Talisman still belonged to the immortals. It should not have lost its ability. Under normal circumstances, the Sound Resonating Talisman would choose the path that it could go on in order to find another Sound Resonating Talisman.

What was the situation now? Was it a dead end?

Such a situation would usually only arise if there were no other alternative paths. However, the road ahead was free of obstruction. What did it mean if the Sound Resonating Talisman had gone straight into the wall and had stopped moving?

Mo Wen looked at the Sound Resonating Talisman uncomprehendingly. He extended his hand to grab the Sound Resonating Talisman back. Then, he retreated tens of meters before releasing it.

He had hoped for it to continue flying forward. However, the Sound Resonating Talisman flew back with a whizz and slammed itself onto the wall once again.

“So odd!” Mo Wen muttered to himself. He turned to walk over to the wall and analyzed it in greater detail. He could not see anything special about it. It appeared to be just a normal wall.

“Hm?” Suddenly, his ear twitched twice and a light gleamed in his eyes. He took a step forward and pressed his ear against the wall.

“Could it be?” An odd look flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. He decisively punched a fist against the wall.

With Mo Wen’s current power in his mortal body, one punch could essentially kill an ancient martial art practitioner with the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm. To him, a wall was no different from tofu.

With a huge roar, the wall had a huge hole broken into it. The hole was tens of meters wide. Mo Wen’s destructive abilities were indeed exceptional.

Behind the wall was an empty space. The wall was only a meter thick and as the hole opened in the wall, a ray of light shone through it.

Meanwhile, in a complicated cave within the abyss, a huge group of human ancient martial art practitioners had gathered. There were more than a hundred of them and everyone had amazing cultivation. They were all at least of the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm. They all hailed from the various sects in the Ancient Green Mystery Dimension and were amongst the top of all ancient martial art practitioners.

They were in a huge limestone cave and the space was very big. Although there were hundreds of people around, it did not feel packed at all. In fact, it was still rather spacious.

The ancient martial art practitioners inside were gathered into smaller groups of three to five, and they each found a place for themselves to gather. Between the groups, there was a certain amount of space, as if everyone was on their guard.

The people of Intentionless Sect were at one corner of the limestone cave. There were only three of them and their situation did not seem very positive. Their clothes were tattered and they all seemed to have sustained a certain level of internal injuries.

“Father, would that Sound Resonating Talisman work? Would Mo Wen be able to rush over?” Chen Zikuang furrowed his brows and his expression paled a little. There were traces of blood on his body and his condition was clearly not very good. He wasn’t the only one. All the ancient martial art practitioners in the limestone cave had a certain level of injury. It was hard to spot a person without any injuries at all.

After all, the depths of the abyss were extremely dangerous. Any random monstrous beast that they met along the way would not be of the average strength.

There were also many ancient martial art practitioners who had already died in the abyss. The death count was already up to 30 percent of the total number of people.

Intentionless Sect only had three people left. Something had already happened to Sect Elder Wang Qiusheng, meaning only Chen Wuhui, Chen Zikuang, and the Sect Great Elder, Xia Kunqian remained. Although the three of them were still alive, they were all seriously injured.

“Since Mo Wen passed the Sound Resonating Talisman to me, I believe it will be effective,” Chen Wuhui said in a deep voice, looking at the token which was shining continuously.

This Sound Resonating Talisman seemed different from the others that he knew of. He was also not sure whether it would be able to contact Mo Wen. However, the Sound Resonating Talisman did not look seem to be basic and surely could not be completely useless.

“I hope Mo Wen will be able to get here in time. That way, the chances of us obtaining the treasure of Luofeng Sect will increase,” Chen Zikuang said, sighing deeply. There were so many ancient martial art practitioners gathered in the limestone cave and it had everything to do with the treasures of Luofeng Sect. That was because Luofeng Sect’s treasure was located in this particular limestone cave.

Initially, Intentionless Sect had been the first to discover the treasure of Luofeng Sect and should have been able to obtain it easily. However, they did not expect that things would be so tough in the limestone cave. They had all almost lost their lives inside it.

Because of the chaos that the few of them had caused, more and more ancient martial art practitioners had found out about the treasures. They did not know when the news had leaked out but within an hour, more than a hundred people had gathered in the cave.

With so many people now present Chen Zikuang was afraid that, even if they were actually able to obtain the treasure, Intentionless Sect would not even be able to get a share.

Moreover, the treasure of Luofeng Sect was not that easy to obtain. So many ancient martial art practitioners were gathered but no one dared to make a rash move.

Chen Zikuang knew of Mo Wen’s abilities. Although his battle abilities were not strong, if he worked with and complemented the power of others, they would not even have to fear a later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art master, let alone an ancient martial art practitioner with the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm.

There were so many ancient martial art practitioners in the limestone cave and there were some very strong sects around. If they did not have Mo Wen around, Intentionless Sect would not be able to establish an edge over others.

“Let’s hope he’ll be able to get here quickly,” the Sect Great Elder, Xia Qiankun, sighed. In reality, everyone knew that the chances of Mo Wen making it over were not high. That was because they were in the abyss, where everywhere was fraught with danger. They could not even be sure if Mo Wen was still alive at the moment, much less be certain of him being able to rush over within such a short time.

He was someone who had collaborated with Mo Wen before. Naturally, he knew just how much of a help he would be to them.

However, just Xia Qiankun had finished speaking, the rock wall behind him exploded with a roar and collapsed. Huge rocks were flying flew everywhere. Xia Qiankun was taken by surprise and was hit by some of the rocks. Then, he stumbled and fell onto the ground.

It was fortunate that Xia Kunqian was still an ancient martial art practitioner with the Golden Elixir realm. His mortal body was strong and it was difficult for him to get hurt by the usual knives and swords, much less injured by a few rocks. It was just that he had been taken by surprise and was currently a little more haggard than usual.

Xia Kunqian was not the only one who had been harmed from the shock. A large number of rocks were flying about and a lot of people in the area had been hit by them.

“Who is that! Come out right now.” Xia Kunqian flew into a rage. There were actually people who dared to do such things. It was simply too much. They didn’t even respect him, the Sect Great Elder of Intentionless Sect.

“Sect Elder Xia, why are you so angry?” Under the pile of broken stones, a soft laugh erupted. The sound was warm and gentle, and it made them feel very comfortable. The sound was clearly coming from someone who was not very old. However, there was a degree of persuasiveness in the voice and it made one feel inexplicably comfortable.

“Mo Wen!” Xia Kunqian’s body shivered and he turned to look behind him. There was shock and amazement in his eyes. The voice was very familiar to him. It was none other than Mo Wen!

Almost simultaneously, Chen Wuhui and Chen Zikuang looked over. Their eyes were also full of shock and surprise.

A lanky figure walked out from the huge hole that had been created. He wore a white robe and was dressed in a way that was very simple and refreshing. There were no accessories on his body and he was rather young, only about 20 or so years old. The people in the cave were either old men or middle-aged. Young people simply were non-existent among the current group.

That was because people who could appear in this area were at least of the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm. Who would have such cultivation at such a young age?

“After receiving the Sound Resonating Talisman, I rushed over immediately. What happened to you guys?” Mo Wen smiled and glanced across at the three people from Intentionless Sect. He could tell that they were in a bad way and realized that they were one person short.

He had not expected that Chen Wuhui and the others were just behind that passageway. The distance between them had been even less than a hundred meters.

“You really come and go like a shadow.” Chen Zikuang looked at Mo Wen helplessly. None of them had expected that Mo Wen would use such a shocking method to appear before them, at the very moment when they had been wondering if he would even be able to make it.

This was the abyss and Mo Wen had actually been able to smash his way into the cave. Was he not even afraid to barge into a monstrous beast lair?

“Where is our second Sect Elder?” Mo Wen asked.

Chen Wuhui sighed, “Second Sect Elder has sacrificed himself. Earlier, we encountered a scary monstrous beast and second Sect Elder sacrificed his life to buy time so that we could escape.”

Mo Wen nodded his head and did not press the matter further. “I have some healing medicinal pills, you guys should have some. You should then be able to recover in a while.” He reached for a jade bottle in his sleeves and poured out three white pills. Then, he gave them to Chen Wuhui and the two others. Those were the Cyan Spiritual Pills that he had concocted. Now that they had a higher level Heart Nourishing Pill, the Cyan Spiritual Pills were no longer so important so there was no need to keep hold of them.

The injuries of Chen Wuhui and the two others were not too serious. Hence, the Cyan Spiritual Pills would be enough to help them recover immediately. They did not need a high-level pill like the Heart Nourishing Pill.

“Thank you, young friend Mo Wen.” Chen Wuhui received the Cyan Spiritual Pill and was impressed by Mo Wen’s generosity. Although the Cyan Spiritual Pill could not be compared to the Heart Nourishing Pill, it was still a healing medicinal pill. If he had traded it with another sect, he would have been able to obtain something really good.

If it had been under normal circumstances, he would definitely have felt like it was a waste to eat the healing medicinal pill. However, it was a very crucial time now and as long as they were able to maintain their optimal condition, their chances of obtaining the treasures of Luofeng Sect would be higher.

The other two knew that it was not the time to be petty as well. Hence, they swallowed the Cyan Spiritual Pill immediately after receiving it. Then, they simply sat down cross-legged to recover.
