In an inconspicuous hill, hidden by trees, there is a small cave.

At this time, Qin Cheng was sitting cross-legged in the cave, with his aura surging and his skills running continuously.

A few hours later, after all the losses and hidden injuries during this period had been replenished, Qin Cheng slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of foul air.

"I have returned to the first level of Transformation Realm. With this level of cultivation outside, I can still be considered a strong person, but in this place of trial, I am probably the lowest level monk."

Qin Cheng shook his head in distress. This time, the backlash from heaven was so severe that not only did he get seriously injured, but his cultivation level was also affected.

With his current level of cultivation, let alone competing with Zhang Junyi and others for the first place in the Tianjiao Festival, even facing Feng Wuhen's level would be a problem.

"Besides, I have been in a coma for more than ten days. I wonder how Ye Zun and the others have gained? Zhao Ding, Dong Tiancheng and others have improved." Qin Cheng thought secretly.

Just as he was about to transmit a message to Ye Zun through the light spot in the sea of ​​consciousness, Qin Cheng's mind suddenly moved and he took a few steps back.

Above the ground, a formation flashed, and Qin Cheng instantly disappeared into the darkness of the cave.

"Miss, this is the cave. Let's rest here for a while and then walk a hundred kilometers to get there."

Outside the cave, there was a series of footsteps and an old man's voice.

Then, Qin Cheng saw five people walking into the cave, including two women and three men. In addition to a young woman, there was also a young man. The remaining three were all over the age of seventy.

The cultivation level radiated ranges from the third level to the sixth level of Transformation Realm.

"What's going on?" Qin Cheng frowned.

Isn’t it true that only a hundred geniuses can enter the Genius Gala? Why would such a person appear?

"At that time, you were backlashed by the law of heaven and did not listen clearly to the rules that Elder Xun said." Fu Mo said.

"As the Chosen Sons, you will enter this place ten days earlier than other young warriors, and you will sacrifice your blood to enter. They are just ordinary intruders, so there are a large number of ruins and treasures that these people cannot enter, and even they cannot

I'll take action against you and others. This ancient sect's secret realm has very strict level restrictions."

"There are still such rules." Qin Cheng was stunned. At that time, he was only focused on fighting against the backlash of heaven, and he really didn't care about Elder Xun's words.

However, with the influx of a large number of warriors into this secret realm, the situation must have become even more chaotic.

While the two were talking, the five people were sitting in the cave.

"Elder Zou, my mind is very confused right now. My father came here to hunt for treasure twenty years ago, but he died in the abyss without knowing anything. He even lost the key to the family treasure house here. This has made the family worse and worse."

"In addition to this bet, if I can't get the key back, the Ye family will have to change their surname. How can I live up to my dead father?" The woman sighed and looked at the bonfire worriedly.

"Don't worry, Miss. It's not that easy for the Tao family to annex our Ye family. Don't forget that you have clues left by the old family master. If you want to find his burial place, we will definitely be faster." The old man surnamed Zou comforted

road.

"Yes, Miss, the Tao family went too far to deceive others. They even used the family to bet, but they had no idea that we had any clues. We will definitely win this time." The old woman also said with a smile.

"I hope so."

The woman forced a smile. She recalled the strange smile that appeared on the face of the Tao family before he entered this place, but she could not calm down.

Qin Cheng stood in the shadows and already understood the purpose of this group of people. The matter was not complicated, it was just a matter of the woman wanting to retrieve her father's belongings and preserve her family.

This made Qin Cheng couldn't help but think of Zeng Li. Being in a big family may not be all benefits, but also a lot of pressure.

The woman was upset and almost involuntarily took out her father's belongings.

It was a piece of broken jade, or a corner of a complete jade stone.

When her father came to this secret place, she was still young. She held on to her father and cried bitterly, so her father cut off a corner of her most beloved jade and gave it to herself to ensure that he would come back.

However, his father was buried here since then, causing the family to lose its treasure house. Many cultivation bases could not be passed down, and the former vassal families took advantage of them.

"Father, where are you? Yu'er misses you so much." The woman held the broken jade and murmured silently.

But the moment the jade stone appeared, Qin Cheng's body moved slightly.

From this broken jade, Qin Cheng felt a special aura, which touched the Dao pattern scars in his body, and there was a hint of recovery!

"What kind of strange jade is this?"

Qin Cheng was shocked. He didn't expect that the aura emanating from a piece of broken jade had the power to heal Dao marks.

"Miss, it's almost time to rest. Let's go." The old man surnamed Zou put out the bonfire. Several people stood up and prepared to leave.

"etc."

Qin Cheng suddenly spoke and walked out of the darkness.

If he had the opportunity to repair the cracks in the Dao pattern, he would naturally not let this opportunity pass him by.

"Who are you!"

The expressions of several people changed dramatically. They did not expect that there were outsiders hiding in their hiding place. They took out their weapons one after another, and even the woman named Ye also drew out a long sword.

"Are you sent by the Tao family?" The old woman also frowned.

"Don't get me wrong. I mean no harm."

Qin Cheng quickly raised his hand to show that he was not hostile. He smiled lightly and said: "If I am really sent by the Tao family, you didn't find me. Why did I expose my identity?"

"Actually, I was already here before you came."

Qin Cheng pointed at the formation at his feet, and everyone noticed that there was a trace of the formation in an inconspicuous corner of the cave.

The five people's expressions turned pale at this moment. It was as if they had accidentally bumped into the cave where Qin Cheng was. Facing the five people, Qin Cheng hid first to avoid them, so it was not out of character.

"Then young master, why did you suddenly show up?" said the woman surnamed Ye.

"I overheard your conversation and I think I have the ability to help you." Qin Cheng said.

"You don't have no conditions, do you?" the woman said.

"I want your broken jade." Qin Cheng said.

As soon as he said this, the woman's complexion suddenly changed slightly and she clutched the jade stone tightly.

Qin Cheng sighed. He also knew that this object was a relic left by the woman's father, but there was nothing he could do to cure the Dao pattern.

"It's really ridiculous. A young boy appears out of nowhere and promises help. Miss, ignore him. I think this person is just a liar with no ability." Elder Zou frowned and sneered.

"If I don't have the ability, then you will be even more useless." Qin Cheng said.

"Bastard, what did you say!" the old man shouted angrily.

Qin Cheng didn't explain either. He suddenly raised his arm.

In an instant, lines of light lit up on the ground, forming a spiritual array.

Several chains of spiritual energy suddenly flew out from under the old man's feet, wrapping around his whole body, and a sharp edge of spiritual power suddenly fell, suspended above the old man's head, as if it could fall down at any time and cut off his body.
