The wall was just as dark as the one in the secret room. As Gu Yuan got closer, it became more and more transparent. There were a lot of words on the wall. Gu Yuan started to read them.
"The rest of the year, be less frivolous and do many irreparable mistakes. The young elites, the heroic couple Wu Lin, both died in this old man's hands due to trying to show off their strength. Afterwards, they listened to the slanderous words of the villain and personally destroyed countless families that were originally kind to them. Sigh... "Too late for regret, too late for regret."
"So … It's like this! " Gu Yuan finally understood his intention at this moment. It turned out that all of this was the fault of the relic's owner before his death. Gu Yuan finally understood his intention at this moment, all of this was the fault of the relic's owner before his death.
"This painstaking effort is really impressive!" Gu Yuan smiled bitterly, the hatred in his heart subsiding a little. Today's experience was one of the most impressive lessons that Gu Yuan had ever experienced in his life.
The wall rose slowly and Gu Yuan walked into it. He found that he had returned to the secret room when he left.
Turning around to take a look, he realized that Gu Yuan was also sitting cross-legged, recovering his zhenqi and adjusting his state of mind.
Roughly an hour later, the other wall in the secret chamber began to change from black to transparent.
Gu Yuan stood up and walked to the wall.
"Yu 50 years old, experienced countless life and death situations, tempered by his mental fortitude and temperament. He is well aware of the dangers of rivers and lakes, and the higher his strength, the heavier his responsibilities. Each word and deed, the more important it is."
"From the looks of it, the owner of this relic is also a righteous person. He didn't change his personality because his family was killed, but was instead aware of the mistakes he made. As his age and strength grew, he became more serious."
After carefully reading every word on the wall, the wall completely rose up and Gu Yuan walked in without any hesitation.
As Gu Yuan took a step forward, the surroundings suddenly changed. The sudden brightness made Gu Yuan unable to resist closing his eyes.
After gradually adapting, Gu Yuan found himself at a valley entrance, and there were people all around him.
These people were all dressed in Cultivator's clothes, and judging from their strength, they were probably not weak at all. They were all grouped together in groups, talking about something from time to time.
Feeling someone grabbing his sleeve, Gu Yuan turned around and realized it was a girl who wasn't even 20 years old. She had a round face and big eyes and looked very cute.
"Brother Lin, are we really going in?"
Gu Yuan was stunned, he did not understand why the young girl called him Brother Lin. He nodded at the young girl and smiled. Gu Yuan did not say anything, but used the system to check the cultivation bases of everyone around him.
"All of them are at least of the Aurous Core stage!" Gu Yuan was shocked. Three of them had cultivation bases that Gu Yuan had to be careful of.
A strange middle-aged man wearing a straw hat and a straw cape was at the early Nascent Soul stage.
An old woman dressed in thick makeup, early Nascent Soul Stage.
The most powerful one was a sturdy old man with a golden blade. His strength had reached the middle phase of the Nascent Soul Stage, the same level as Purple-clothed Fairy.
Gu Yuan thought about it for a moment. With his current strength, he could only barely defeat an early stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Victory was still in the halfway, so Gu Yuan was not confident of defeating a middle stage Nascent Soul cultivator.
"Still, be careful." Not daring to be careless, Gu Yuan decided to hide himself.
Gu Yuan unconsciously moved towards the edge of the crowd. The girl holding Gu Yuan's sleeve was very cute, although she was curious why Brother Lin kept moving out of the crowd, she felt that the other person didn't want to talk to her, so she didn't ask and followed closely behind Gu Yuan.
Gu Yuan moved to the outer most part of the crowd. Suddenly, the middle level Nascent Soul stage old man with the golden blade walked to the front of the crowd. With a leap, he jumped onto a two meter high rock.
The crowd turned silent. Gu Yuan also stopped his actions and looked at the old man with the golden blade.
Seeing that the crowd had quieted down, the old man with the golden blade was very satisfied. He said loudly, "I believe that everyone already knows the reason why we have gathered here today. The Qingbei Realm has always been a peaceful place, and treasures should not ruin the past relationship. I, Nangong Lin, am not talented today, so before I entered the valley, I made a few rules.
Seeing the crowd nod their heads, Nangong Lin continued, "First, we cannot kill each other. Anyone who attacks their companions for the benefit of the treasure will be served by the Golden Blade, regardless of their relatives. Everyone has their own opinions."
After scanning the surroundings and seeing that no one objected, Nangong Lin continued: "Second, work together. We can't differentiate each other. This valley is dangerous. If you don't act with your full strength, you will still be beheaded by the golden blade!"
He scanned another round, but there was still no one who objected. It could be seen how important Nangong Lin was to these people.
"Third, the treasures obtained will be divided evenly, and cannot be fought over. Unbiased, this old man will swear with the golden blade in my hand that if anyone finds out about the hidden treasures, I will hack them to death!"1
Following Nangong Lin's words, everyone started whispering, especially those unspecialized characters. Their faces were full of excitement, as if they were happy because of Nangong Lin's three rules.
After seeing everything, Gu Yuan felt disdain in his heart.
"You speak of righteousness and are despicable and shameless. I do not believe that under the condition of absolute power, there will be someone who would hand over countless treasures to others for the sake of fairness."
After the rules were set, along with Nangong Lin's shout, the hundreds of people blocking the entrance of the valley started to rush into the valley.
Gu Yuan observed carefully and found that most of these people were in groups of three or five. Only three of them were organized.
They were the beautiful old woman with more than thirty people following her. The middle-aged man in the raincoat had less than forty subordinates with him. The one who led the most was the old man with golden blades who called himself Nangong Lin.
"It seems like the final treasure fight is going to take place among these three groups of people." It seems like the final treasure fight is going to take place among these three groups of people.
Gu Yuan continued to observe and thought in his heart: "It's good that you guys don't trust me. As long as you guys mess up, I have a chance."
The valley was very wide, and even if several hundred people entered, it didn't seem crowded. After all, this was a temporarily formed team, and there was no tacit understanding between them. They were all unruly cultivators, so after walking not too far, they would hear a lot of noise.
Nangong Lin, who was at the front of the team, obviously heard the sound from behind, and his face didn't look too good. He thought to himself, "A motley group. If it wasn't for the fact that this valley is too dangerous and needs you to die, this old man would have already taken the treasure and waited until today."
Another wave of angry curses came from the crowd. It seemed as if they were going to find Nangong Lin to judge.
