Yideng was controlling Yue Jang's body and flying on instinct, but soon enough he collided with a mountain peak.
After Yideng collided with the mountain peak, he lost control of Yue Jang's body and tumbled into the mountain. Debris and dust started flowing with the black miasma, and Yue Jang's body lay on the ground, writhing in pain. As the dust settled, Yideng saw a coffin that had been unearthed by the collision. The coffin was made of black stone and had a sinister aura emanating from it.
"Why is there a coffin here?" Yue Jang questioned.
"Fool, you are quite lucky. Now we can be saved," Yideng said excitedly.
"What do you mean by that?" Yue Jang became confused.
"In such a place, someone has put their coffin. That person must be strong, and all the treasures and resources of that strong person would be kept in the cabin," Yideng explained.
Yue Jang hurriedly moved forward and tried to open the coffin with his hands, but it didn't budge.
"How should I open it?" he asked Yideng.
"Kowtow three times and it will automatically open," Yideng replied.
Yue Jang followed the instructions and kowtowed three times to the coffin.
As the coffin gate opened, it emitted a bright and blinding light that filled the area. Yue Jang shielded his eyes and stumbled back, trying to adjust to the sudden brightness. As the light faded away, he looked into the coffin and was amazed by what he saw.
Yue Jang exclaimed, "Wow!" after seeing just the upper contents of the coffin. There were many spiritual weapons, high-grade medicinal herbs, high-grade pills, and many raw materials. It didn't end there; there was more in it.
Excitedly, Yue Jang moved toward the coffin. Suddenly, Yideng said, "Shit, they've caught up to us!"
"Why are they still following us?" Yue Jang wondered, thinking that they wouldn't follow them in such a dangerous way.
"What do we do, Yideng?" Yue Jang asked urgently.
"What can we do other than running away from here as well."
"But what about the treasure? They are not normal treasures!" Yue Jang said.
"Sigh! We can't take these treasures with us. If we leave the treasure here, there is a possibility that our lives would be saved as they will be busy collecting the treasure. And I'm sure, with your luck, we would find better opportunities in the future," Yideng consoled Yue Jang as he took control of Yue Jang's body. Yue Jang looked at the coffin with disappointment. Then Yideng flew out from the cave.
As they flew, Yue Jang couldn't help but feel a sense of regret for leaving behind such valuable treasures. However, he knew that their safety was more important at the moment. He hoped that they would encounter more opportunities in the future to acquire treasures of equal or greater value.
...
"Are you talking about this deal?" the old man asked as he appeared in the cave with Wang Chen.
"Yes, I knew that Yue Jang was hiding something deep, so I had to use everything at my disposal to bring out his deepest secret. I knew he was receiving help from a particular ancient soul, which made it difficult to deal with him even with my fullest power. But what if I could get a strong person like you? Then it wouldn't be hard," Wang replied.
The old man nodded in understanding, "I see, so you wanted me to help you deal with Yue Jang and that ancient soul."
"Yes, I knew that you are one of the strongest in this area and with your help it was done easily." Wang Chen said.
As Wang Chen approached the coffin, he looked over the array of spiritual weapons, high-grade medicinal herbs, and pills, all of which glittered in the light of the cave. He randomly picked up a single item. His expression was unreadable, but there was a sense of satisfaction.
[ Congratulations host for intercepting the protagonist's opportunity and getting 8000 Destiny Points. ]
Then he put the item back. He just needed to get the opportunity before the item so he can get the Destiny Points.
"Old man, there are many valuable items, resources, and treasures here that you might be interested in. Please take them," Wang Chen said politely, knowing that he had made a deal that he couldn't back out of. If he didn't fulfill his end of the bargain, the old man would kill him in an instant. Wang Chen was relieved to discover that the old man was an honorable man; had he been a greedy individual, he would have been drooling with desire by now.
The old man looked at Wang Chen with a smile and said, "Young man, you are a man of your words. I appreciate it. I will take a look at these treasures, but I won't take them all. I have no use for them. I only want what is necessary for me to achieve my goal."
The old man was also extremely curious to see what treasures were in the coffin. He searched the coffin thoroughly from top to bottom, and his hands trembled as he saw the amazing items inside. He was clearly shocked and awed by what he saw, unable to contain his excitement at the sight of the treasures before him. The old man picked up a few items and put them in his storage ring.
After a few moments, he looked back at Wang Chen with a serious gaze. "I will leave those items which can help you with your cultivation, and I will take only what I need. As for the raw materials, such as the special type of high iron used to create weapons, I will take those as well. If you were to refine them yourself, you would be charged a high price. But don't worry, I will compensate you by giving you a refined weapon made from those materials."
Hearing the terms and conditions from the old man's mouth, Wang Chen became quite satisfied. "I'm happy to hear that," he replied with a nod.
"By the way, my name is Xue Lan and you don't have to take the second test," Xue Lan announced.
"Huh? What do you mean by no need to take the test, Old Man Xue Lan?" Wang Chen became confused.
"What is said is what I mean," Xue Lan said in a nonchalant tone.
"But I still want to take the second test!" Wang Chen replied firmly.
Xue Lan looked surprised, as if he didn't expect anyone to refuse his offer. "Are you sure you want to take the second test?" he asked again.
Wang Chen nodded. "Yes, I am sure."
Xue Lan looked at Wang Chen with interest, trying to gauge the young man's character. It was not often that someone would willingly choose to take the second test, especially after knowing the horrors that lay within.
"Hmm, you are quite the bold one," Xue Lan commented, a hint of admiration in his voice. "Most people would have fled at the mere mention of the second test, let alone insisting on taking it."
Wang Chen simply smiled, his determination evident in his eyes. "I have come this far, why not go all the way? I want to see what lies beyond the second test, no matter how difficult it may be.
"Hmmm, okay, it's time to go back to the sect. I have to visit other sects as well," Xue Lan said as he stood up and walked towards the cave entrance. As they emerged into the open air, Wang Chen looked around, feeling a sense of awe as he saw the black miasma swirling around them. Xue Lan held Wang Chen tightly as he started to fly, skillfully deflecting the miasma with his cultivation. Wang Chen felt the wind rushing past him and the sense of freedom that came with flying, a feeling that he had never experienced before. Wang Chen felt a sense of excitement and nervousness.
…
"Grandpa, why did Wang Chen take the old man to follow Yue Jang ?" Su Chen asked.
"I don't know but Wang Chen's strength is not what he shows." Su Zhong replied.
