Sign In Buddha’s Palm - Chapter 224: Return And Shock.

“It is as Senior said.”

The Old Taoist respectfully replied in a low voice.

“Okay.”

Su Qin did not continue to ask questions. He looked at Qingqiu Qianqian and said, “On Ying State Monster Island, is there a box made of jade stone?”

“A box made of jade stone?”

Qingqiu Qianqian didn’t know what Su Qin wanted this thing for, but she still answered truthfully: “Yes, I’ll get it for you Master.”

Although the Demon Fox Race was from the Monster Clan, this does not mean that they don’t like beautiful things. They naturally collected beautiful things and the jade stone box was among them.

Soon, Qingqiu Qianqian brought a half-human sized jade box. The material of this jade box was extremely exquisite. If this was brought to the Tang Empire, it would be deemed absolutely valuable, but in the eyes of Su Qin, it was just an item where you can put stuff in.

“Come with me.”

Su Qin glanced at the jade box and walked towards the small island on the lake.

“Yes.” Qingqiu Qianqian held the jade box and followed Su Qin smoothly.

The Old Taoist hesitated for a while before he braced himself and also followed along. Although Su Qin didn’t let him stay, Su Qin also didn’t say that he could leave. Under such circumstances, the Old Taoist naturally did not dare to act rashly.

Not long after, the three arrived outside the Cave Mansion of the True Monarch of the Eastern Sea.

[Rumble~].

The black stone gate slowly opened.

“This is the Cave Mansion of the True Monarch of the Eastern Sea?”

The Old Taoist looked around cautiously and found that most of the things were decayed, especially the bottles and jars. Su Qin may not care, but these made the Old Taoist feel endlessly distressed.

“Wood Spirit Pill, Spirit Transformation Pill, Golden Fire Core…These, these all are extremely rare Divine Pills! These are enough to stock up a group of Major Sect disciples. Some of the medicine pills had been lost for thousands of years…”

The more the Old Taoist looked, the more his heart bled. The bottles and jars in the Cave Mansion may not be used by him, but for the sect, it was enough to raise the foundation by one or two levels.

But now, these pills had been ruined by the flow of time. So how can the Old Taoist not be heartbroken?

“Huh?”

The Old Taoist’s gaze continued to wander and when he saw the body of the True Monarch, his pupils suddenly shrunk. If Su Qin were not in front of him, the Old Taoist would have probably run away already.

“The True Monarch of the Eastern Sea…” The Old Taoist swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, his legs were shaking.

“He is indeed the True Monarch of the Eastern Sea, but only his body is left. His Divine Sense has long disappeared.” Qingqiu Qianqian said, seeing the Old Taoist’s performance.

“His body…?”

“That’s right, how could the True Monarch live to this day? It must be just his body.” The Old Taoist felt cold sweat on his forehead.

Su Qin stopped in front of the True Monarch’s body, and was lost in thought.

“Master, I will move him out.” Qingqiu Qianqian thought that Su Qin felt that this body was in the way, and said quickly.

“No need.”

Su Qin shook his head slightly, saying: “Dust returns to dust, earth returns to earth, even if one is an Earth Immortal, he’ll still return to the ground.”

Su Qin said softly as he randomly stomped his right foot.

Suddenly, the area where the True Monarch’s body suddenly collapsed, and the True Monarch was buried in it.

When Qingqiu Qianqian saw this, a touch of complexity appeared on her face.

In the eyes of the Demon Fox Race, the True Monarch of the Eastern Sea had an extraordinary significance. After all, the True Monarch had enslaved the Demon Fox Race for hundreds of years. Even if it was nearly 10,000 years after his death, it nonetheless left a great psychological shadow on the Demon Fox Race.

“Sigh~”

The Old Taoist sighed inwardly.

The so-called Martial Artists, even if they were at Peak Earth Immortal like the True Lord of the Eastern Sea or the supreme powerhouses that surpassed the Earth Immortal Realm, all of them were the same as an ordinary person in the end. Once their lifespan was up, they would be reduced to ashes.

After Su Qin finished burying the body of True Monarch, he turned around and came to the Spirit Spring.

After the consumption of Su Qin’s breakthrough, the Spirit Spring had been completely dried up. If it weren’t for the faint spirit still radiating from it, it would certainly just be ignored by people.

“Senior, is this the rumored Spirit Spring?” The Old Taoist’s face changed slightly, and finally couldn’t help asking.

“You have good eyesight.”

Su Qin turned his head, glanced at the Old Taoist, and indifferently said.

At this moment, the Spirit Spring did not look like a ‘spring’ at all. If you didn’t pay attention to it, you will only think it was a spirit converging ground.

Since the Old Taoist was able to recognize its true identity at a glance, he was obviously experienced and knowledgeable.

“We once had a Spirit Spring. It’s just that it dried up 5,000 years ago…” The Old Taoist continued: “So there is a detailed record of Spirit Springs in the sect.”

As an overseas power, a Major Sect, with roots from the previous prosperous era, it was not surprising that they had a Spirit Spring.

“Is Senior going to transfer the Spirit Spring?”

The Old Taoist looked at the jade box Qingqiu Qianqian was holding in both hands, and asked tentatively.

The Spirit Spring is the aggregation of endless spirits, ordinary items wouldn’t be able to contain it. Only a pure jade stone can barely stop the leakage and contain it.

Su Qin had indeed asked Qingqiu Qianqian to get the jade box for this purpose.

“Not bad…”

Su Qin praised.

Now that the Spirit Spring was almost completely exhausted, instead of leaving it on Ying State Monster Island, it was better to bring it to Chang’an City and Cultivate it. Maybe someday the Spirit Spring will recover, and the spirits will be all over Chang’an City. By then, Chang’an City will become a Cultivation Holy Land.

“Okay.”

“Put down the jade box.”

“You stay away.”

Su Qin ordered.

“Yes.”

Qingqiu Qianqian immediately placed the jade box in front of the Spirit Spring, and then retreated respectfully.

The Old Taoist was full of awe. After exiting the Cave Mansion, he kept looking all around, as if he was worried about something.

“What are you looking at?”

Qingqiu Qianqian looked at the Old Taoist curiously, and asked in doubt.

“Senior wants to transfer the Spirit Spring, don’t you know anything?” The Old Taoist was puzzled and asked rhetorically.

“Huh?” Qingqiu Qianqian blinked.

“Sigh~” Seeing this, the Old Taoist could only patiently explain and answer Qingqiu Qianqian’s confusion: “The Spirit Spring is rooted in the Earth. If Senior wants to transfer the Spirit Spring, it is tantamount to pulling up an old tree by the roots, do you know what it means?”

“What does it mean?” Qingqiu Qianqian asked.

“It means…” But the Old Taoist was interrupted.

[Hong long long~]!

The entire Ying State Monster Island suddenly trembled. The sea became turbulent and Qingqiu Qianqian felt like the end of the world was happening.

If it weren’t for the Array around the Ying State Monster Island, barely resisting the shocks, I’m afraid that the entire island would have already split into pieces.

After one hour, the trembling slowly stopped.

It was only now that the Old Taoist had the opportunity to say the second half of his sentence: “It means that the Heavens and Earth are turning upside down.”

“Senior’s strength is really deep and unmeasurable…”

The Old Taoist looked at the Cave Mansion and expressed heartfelt awe.

When their Spirit Spring ran out and were ready to transfer, they used the power of the whole sect and it took several months to complete it.

But Su Qin just did it in just one hour.

Amidst the Old Taoist and Qingqiu Qianqian’s shock, Su Qin’s voice suddenly rang in their ears.

“You two, come in.”

“Yes.” Qingqiu Qianqian and the Old Taoist glanced at each other and entered the Cave Mansion.

At this moment, compared to chaos that had happened outside, there seems to have been no change inside the Cave Mansion. The only difference was that the deep pit where the Spirit Spring was, had disappeared.

“Master, where is the Spirit Spring?”

Qingqiu Qianqian immediately noticed the change and cautiously asked.

“It’s already packed.” Su Qin glanced at the jade box next to him and indifferently said.

If it weren’t for Su Qin entering the 8th Heavenly Layer, it would have taken him a lot of effort to transfer to the Spirit Spring.

The True Monarch of the Eastern Sea planted the Spirit Spring on Ying State Monster Island nearly 10,000 years ago. Since then, the Spirit Spring had long fused together with the island.

If Su Qin wanted to remove the Spirit Spring, it was equivalent to shaking the entire island.

Although the Ying State Monster Island was not comparable to the mainland, no ordinary 7th or 8th Heavenly Layer Legend would be able to achieve this feat.

“It’s inside?” Qingqiu Qianqian kept looking at the jade box.

“Pick up the jade box.”

Su Qin looked at the jade stone box and instructed.

Although the System Storage claims to contain everything, it was only useful for treasures obtained through Signing In. As for other things, it cannot be stored.

“Yes.”

Qingqiu Qianqian stepped forward immediately. She looked at the jade box curiously, but when then she was about to hoist it up in her hands.

“Aiya?”

“Master, why has the jade box become so heavy?”

Qingqiu Qianqian’s pretty face became slightly red. Even after trying for a long time, she couldn’t even move the jade box by a bit, let alone lift it up.

“Although the Spirit Spring is gathered by endless spirits, it is related to the Earth Veins. Even if it is only a tiny bit, it weighs a thousand jin. And this is already very tiny…”

The Old Taoist explained. He hesitated for a moment, and asked Su Qin: “Senior, should Junior give a try?”

Although Qingqiu Qianqian was from the Monster Clan, in the end, she’s still at early Legend Realm. The Old Taoist was already at Peak 4th Heavenly Layer. Although his body was not amazing, he has great strength. After all, strength was not all Body.

“OK.”

“Give it a try.”

Su Qin slightly nodded.

The Old Taoist immediately stepped forward, and his True Essence moved on both his hands. He grabbed both sides of the jade box and shouted, “Get up for me!”

The Old Taoist slowly raised the jade box, and then held it between his hands.

“Senior.”

“What do you think?”

The Old Taoist slightly relaxed. He respectfully turned towards Su Qin.

“Not bad.” A smile appeared on Su Qin’s face and applauded: “I will leave it to you on this journey.”

“This is what Junior should do.”

The Old Taoist was overjoyed and quickly replied.

He was most afraid of not being able to help Su Qin and be discarded.

“On the journey?”

But soon, the Old Taoist was taken aback. He subconsciously asked: “Senior, where are we going?”

“We’ll return to Chang’an City.”

Su Qin looked in the direction of Chang’an City and said.

……

Overseas.

Dark Source Sect.

The Sect Master of the Dark Source Sect was sitting on the throne. His eyes were deep, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

At this moment, a man bowed and said: “Sect Master, Senior Brother Mingyou’s [Illusory Devil Body] has already reached the Great Accomplishment. He will definitely find out exactly what happened on the battleground.”

“Naturally, I’m not worried about the battleground.” The Sect Master shook his head and said in a low voice.

For the Sect Master, although the battleground was important, it was not a top priority.

“It’s not about the battleground?”

The Elders looked at each other, full of doubts.

Currently, the Dark Source Sect’s standing overseas, juxtaposed with the Thunder God Sect, Dao Yi Men and many other Major Sects. It controls most of the resources overseas. So apart from the battleground, what else was worth thinking about?

“I let Mingyou take action this time because in addition to the battleground, it is also related to the Cave Mansion of the True Monarch of the Eastern Sea.” The Sect Master glanced at the crowd and said.

Even though the Cave Mansion of True Monarch was top secret, at least the Elders present knew about it.

“The Cave Mansion of the True Monarch?”

The others’ eyes slightly shrunk, they were shocked.

As a Peak Earth Immortal from 10,000 years ago, the True Monarch’s Cave Mansion should hide great opportunities! Maybe he had a way to make up for the flaws of the Dark Source Sect’s Cultivation technique.

Originally, the Dark Source Sect planned to use the strength of the whole sect to jointly take down the True Monarch’s Cave Mansion. Mingyou was scouting ahead.

“Yes.”

The Sect Master nodded and said: “Now that the vitality is recovering, the Cave Mansion of the True Monarch could leak its aura and reveal itself to the world. If I wait any longer, it is very likely that some early bird will end up catching the worm.”

“So that’s how it is.”

All of the Elders suddenly realized.

As a powerhouse at the Master-class, the Sect Master must stay in the Sect. Other than the Sect Master, Mingyou was the most suitable.

Mingyou was one of the Legends closest to the Master-class in the whole overseas. He was good at survival and even if a real Master-class took action, the latter may not necessarily be able to do anything.

“Since Senior Brother Mingyou made the move, why is the Sect Master worried?”

The Elder was in doubt and asked.

“I’m worried about the Cave Mansion of the True Monarch…” The Sect Master sighed.

Many Major Sects, such as the Thunder God Sect, Dao Yi Men and Snow God Palace, all have an Earth Immortal at some point in their history. But the Dark Source Sect never had one because of the defects of their Cultivation technique.

Compared with other Major Sects, the Dark Source Sect badly needs the inheritance of the True Monarch.

“Sect Master, you worry too much.”

The Elder, who first spoke, said with a smile: “You should be clear about the strength of Senior Brother Mingyou. Even if there is something unexpected about the True Monarch’s Cave Mansion, let people occupying it early, Senior Brother Mingyou can snatch it easily.”

“Indeed.”

“If there are people that occupied the Cave Mansion, then they better hand it over obediently. Otherwise, the Dark Source Sect will definitely let them not have the will to live, but unable to ask for death.”

“Even if it is a Major Sect, let’s see if anyone really dares to occupy the True Monarch’s Cave Mansion.”

The Elders either expressed disdain, contempt, or confidence.

“That’s right, why was I being worried?”

A smile appeared on the face of the Sect Master. With the strength of Mingyou, even if he’s easily defeated, killing him would be as difficult as Heavenly Ascension.

No matter what accidents happen in the True Monarch’s Cave Mansion, Mingyou should be able to deal with it.

Furthermore, even if Mingyou can’t deal with it, with his life-saving skills, he can escape back to the Dark Source Sect. By then, who in the world can resist the power of the Dark Source Sect?

The more the Sect Master thought, the more joyful he was.

When the Elders began to discuss the treasures in the True Monarch’s Cave Mansion, a disciple suddenly hurried over.

“Sect Master.”

The disciple knelt on the ground with a thud, and said with a trembling voice.

“Don’t panic, just tell the story.” The Sect Master said.

Now that the Dark Source Sect was about to acquire the True Monarch’s Cave Mansion, the Sect Master was naturally in a good mood. Otherwise, if a disciple dared to break in like this, he would have slapped the disciple to death.

“Sect Master.”

“It is about the Martial Uncle, he…he…”

The disciple hesitated and stammered.

“Senior Brother Mingyou? Has he already collected the things inside the True Monarch’s Cave Mansion?” An Elder was overjoyed and stared at the disciple with scorching eyes.

The Sect Master’s eyes lit up, and his Divine Sense began to spread towards all directions.

“Master, Martial Uncle, he…”

Under everyone’s expectation, the dísciple almost cried: “Martial Uncle, his fire of life has been extinguished.”

When these words came out, the Elders, including the Sect Master, suddenly froze. They were in shock!
