Chapter 51: The Road of Life and Death (Part 1)

"The entrance of this cave is too hidden!" Li Muran said in his heart. If Qing Fengzi had not led the way, he would have been afraid that he would not have found the entrance of this cave after walking back and forth several times by the ruins.

"I don't know how deep the hole is!" Qingfengzi frowned.

"This is easy to deal with!" Li Muran smiled slightly, took out a fluorescent stone, and threw it down from the entrance of the cave.

The faint light emitted by the fluorescent stone gradually became smaller and finally disappeared completely. After a while, a muffled sound came.

"What a good way!" Qingfengzi praised: "But this hole is so deep, at least two or three hundred feet!"

"I'm afraid it's more than that!" Li Muran said: "There are no ladders, but we can fly down with the talisman paper crane to take a look."

"Good idea, I'm just about to say that!" Qingfengzi nodded to Li Muran with a smile, and then sacrificed his own talisman paper crane.

Li Muran also sacrificed the talisman paper crane, and the two flew into the cave with the night pearl.

The entrance of the cave is not big, but it just fits the talisman paper crane. The lower it goes, the wider the entrance of the cave, and the easier it is to fly.

After flying down four or five hundred feet deep, the two finally arrived at the bottom of the cave. The two used night pearls to illuminate the bottom of the cave and saw the surrounding environment.

Almost nothing, there are a lot of debris that emit light fluorescent light underground, of course, the fluorescent debris that Li Muran threw down before.

Li Muran took a look at the debris, and suddenly a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but this expression was fleeting, and he immediately remained silent.

"So there is nothing!" Li Muran said with a frown, looking very sorry.

"Yes, this hole is so deep, I thought it could lead to the third level of space!" Qingfengzi said.

Li Muran nodded, and he had similar thoughts.

"Let's go!" Li Muran said.

"Don't be anxious, check carefully first!" Qingfengzi said, then fumbled carefully inch by inch on the cave wall and advised Li Muran: "Junior Brother Zhao, don't be idle either, see if there is any mechanism on the stone wall."

"Okay!" Li Muran agreed. He first put a Vajra Talisman on his body, and then carefully groped on the stone wall behind him.

"Why do you need to use the Vajra Talisman? This Talisman consumes a lot of mana and requires a large amount of vital energy to replenish vital energy!" Qingfengzi asked with a frown.

Li Muran replied casually: "Just be on the verge of mind! If there is really a mechanism here, and it is a trap, it is also good to have self-defense."

"Well, I did it right!" Qingfengzi nodded, thoughts moved, and also used a Vajra Cover spell.

After the two of them fumbled for a while, Li Muran actually found an unusual stone on the cave wall. After gently pressing the stone, a flash of inspiration appeared on the wall, and a curtain of spiritual light of about a meter-sized size appeared, as if a mirror with brilliant light shining.

"It's really an organ!" Li Muran was shocked, "What is this?"

"This is the teleportation light curtain!" Qingfengzi said with a straight expression: "My junior must have heard of the teleportation magic array. That magic array is very unique and can teleport people and treasures in the array to a certain distance away. The teleportation light curtain is a type of teleportation magic array. As long as you pass through this light curtain, you can reach the other end of the teleportation array."

"In other words, the secret of this deep hole is probably also the secret of the third level, just after the teleportation light curtain!"

Li Muran said, "But, after this light curtain, there may be crises everywhere, and there are many traps. If it is, it will be impossible to come out again when it enters behind the light curtain. If that is the case, this light curtain is a death trap!"

"Junior Brother Zhao's words are reasonable!" Qing Fengzi nodded and sighed: "But the most important thing for those who seek immortality and ask for Taoism is the word "opportunity"! Now there is the opportunity in front of you and me, and it is impossible not to try it because of timidity!"

"Let's do this, as the senior brother Zixiaguan, I should take the lead and let the senior brother explore whether the light curtain is safe first! If the senior brother comes out safely, it will not be too late for the junior brother to enter again. If the senior brother does not appear again, it is most likely that he is in danger. The junior brother can leave by himself and don't get involved in the dangerous places again!"

Qingfengzi's words are so righteous that they are admirable.

"It's not appropriate to let the senior brother take risks!" Li Muran shook his head and said.

"It's okay, who made me your senior brother!" Qing Fengzi smiled slightly, ignored Li Muran's advice and directly penetrated into the teleportation light curtain. The whole process was without hesitation, and he seemed full of heroism!

Qingfengzi disappeared behind the light curtain, and the light curtain disappeared, and the original appearance of the stone wall was restored.

Li Muran did not leave, but continued to wait here without moving.

Sure enough, just as Li Muran had already expected, he had only waited by the stone wall for a while, and saw another wave of spiritual light shining on the stone wall, forming a light curtain. Qing Fengzi's body penetrated out of the light curtain and seemed very excited.

"Junior Brother Zhao, it's very safe over there. Let's wait!" Qingfengzi said to Li Muran happily.

"Yes!" Li Muran nodded and sank into the teleportation light curtain with Qingfengzi.

The next moment, Li Muran's eyes lit up and he found himself and Qing Fengzi appeared in a simple but relatively wide stone chamber.

This stone room is full of fluorescent stones of all sizes, making it shine brightly.

However, there was nothing in the stone room, only two stone doors, and apart from that, there was only the teleportation light curtain behind them.

"We can return through this teleportation light curtain at any time!" Qing Fengzi pointed to the light curtain behind him and said to Li Muran.

There are no traps and a way out, so it is indeed very safe here.

"It seems that there is no other road here, but I don't know what's behind the stone gate!" Qing Fengzi murmured, and was about to push the stone gate.

"Senior Brother Qingfeng is careful, there may be danger!" Li Muran reminded.

"I naturally know that, but someone must do this dangerous thing, so I will bear it!" Qing Fengzi nodded and said. After that, he took the initiative to push open the stone gate. He did not encounter any danger, but found that behind the two stone gates, there was a dark passage, which was very long and could not see the end at a glance.

In addition, these two channels are also different. One of them is covered with various open and dark lines, which is obviously full of mechanisms; the other one looks very ordinary.

Qingfengzi said: "Junior Brother Zhao, there are two passages here. You and I will walk one by one. No matter whether you find anything, you will come back here and meet again in half an hour?"

"Senior brother, don't worry!" Li Muran smiled slightly, "Let's find out first!"

Li Muran said, walking slowly in the stone chamber, carefully looking at every inch of the stone chamber.

"Senior Brother, there seems to be some words on the stone wall behind you!" Li Muran suddenly said to Qingfengzi.

"Is that right?" Qing Fengzi turned around and saw two lines of shallow ancient Chinese texts on the stone wall. She couldn't tell if she didn't look carefully.

"What kind of text is this? It's so weird!" Qingfengzi murmured.

Li Muran said lightly: "This is an ancient text that has been abandoned for many years! However, others may not recognize it, but Senior Brother Qingfeng is a late-stage disciple of the Yuanfu Sect. In order to make talismans, our Yuanfu Sect disciples have to practice a large number of ancient characters. This ancient text may be difficult to attract disciples of the other three sects and some young disciples of this sect, but does even Senior Brother Qingfeng recognize it?"

Qingfengzi was stunned. After looking carefully, she smiled embarrassedly and said, "Haha, after Junior Brother Zhao's reminder, I remembered that this is indeed an ancient text I have seen. Some of the talismans have come from this ancient text."

After reading the ancient text carefully, Li Muran frowned and said, "Although this ancient text cannot be fully understood, it roughly means that this is the last treasure of the Dark Night Clan. There are only two ways to obtain the treasure. However, these two ways are a life and a death, a path for life and death! It seems that the two paths behind these two stone gates are the so-called path for life and death! Brother Qingfeng, do you think this is the case?"

Qingfengzi nodded with a serious expression and said, "I didn't expect that Junior Brother Zhao is so knowledgeable about ancient Chinese. I only understood a few words, but the meaning is roughly not much different from what Junior Brother Zhao said."

"Since my junior brother is not wrong, these two paths are life and death. Senior Brother Qingfeng, what do you think should you do?" Li Muran looked puzzled.

By following the right path, you can get the so-called treasure of the Dark Night Clan. This is a god-given opportunity that immortals dream of; but if you go to the dead path, you will die, and the road to immortal cultivation will end!

There are half the chances of life and death, which is undoubtedly one of the most difficult choices!

After pondering for a moment, Qingfengzi resolutely said: "The same thing, we cultivators like us value the word "opportunity" the most! This great opportunity is right in front of us, and it is impossible to miss it for nothing!"

"Let's do this, life and death are fate! Junior Brother Zhao and I each chose a way to explore the treasure. Whoever can survive and get the treasure depends on everyone's chances and luck!"

At the end of his speech, Qingfengzi looked determined and seemed to have prepared for various possible accidents!

"This is a relatively fair method!" Li Muran nodded, "But who will choose the way first?"

Qingfengzi said righteously: "As the eldest brother, of course I should be more polite, so Junior Brother Zhao chooses the way! Junior Brother Zhao, you choose the way, and I choose another way. There is always one of you and me who can get the treasure! Even if I encounter an unexpected accident, Junior Brother Zhao can get the treasure in disguise, and thus go further on the road to immortal cultivation. I am deeply pleased!"

"Thank you, Senior Brother Qingfeng!" Li Muran bowed with emotion.

"Which path should I choose?" Li Muran came to the two stone gates and looked carefully.

Qingfengzi said: "The stone gate passage on the left looks like there are many traps; the stone gate passage on the right is very ordinary. On the surface, the passage on the right seems to be safer! Of course, this is entirely possible because of the layout of a suspicion array! If the mechanism is really to be arranged, the trap arrangement of the left passage on the left is too obvious, and anyone can see that it is inappropriate."

"So, it is possible that the passage on the left will be safer! Junior Brother Zhao, what do you think?"
