57: C57 Underground Cave

C57 Underground Cave

Underground cave, chapter 57.

It was a disgrace for a cultivator to rob a merchant group of mortals!

"I wonder where he hid those Spirit Stones and goods!"

Lin Xuanwang sighed with emotion as he looked at the desolate mountain ridge, which was filled with rocks.

Lin Xuan searched Black Robed Man's body and only found a bag of money. It was filled with ordinary gold and silver. Other than that, there was nothing else.

However, just as Lin Xuan was about to carry Black Robed Man and find a place to bury him, he suddenly found that Lin Jiqiu's shoes had fallen off. Along with him, there was also a beast skin envelope that was tightly sealed!

"This is..."

Seeing this, Lin Xuan immediately had some guesses in his heart. He placed Lin Jiqiu's corpse back on the ground and pinched his nose to open the beast skin envelope.

In fact, this was also Lin Xuan's psychological effect. As a cultivator, he had no blemishes, so he naturally wouldn't have the stench of his feet.

Then, Lin Xuan saw that there was actually a small ancient book hidden in the envelope. The cover was slightly yellow, as if it had been there for some time.

"Heaven Comparing Atlas, what is this? How dare it have the word 'heaven reaching' in its name!"

Lin Xuanwang muttered to himself in doubt as he looked at the words on the cover.

He subconsciously opened the ancient book and found that each page was connected and could be opened directly.

The Heaven Comparing Atlas was a meter long, and it was unknown what material it was made of. It was as thin as a cicada's wing, but Lin Xuan had a feeling that he could not destroy the diagram.

He subconsciously tried, and found that it was indeed impossible to tear it apart. One should know that Lin Xuan's current strength was several thousand kilograms, and when it exploded, it was more than ten thousand kilograms. Not to mention tearing a page of paper, he could even tear apart a Demon Beast alive!

After that, Lin Xuan looked at the contents of the atlas and saw that there were dense and obscure words written on it. In Lin Xuan's memory, he had never seen such words before!

"This is too difficult. It is even more difficult to understand than those tadpole-like English words in my previous life. There is no reference at all!"

Although Lin Xuan could not understand the words on it, he also understood that this Heaven Comparing Atlas book contained a great secret and was very precious!

"I don't care, this time even the system didn't give me any notifications. Perhaps my realm hasn't reached yet, so I'll put it away first!"

Lin Xuan stored the Heaven Comparing Atlas into the Dimensional Pocket, then opened the beast skin envelope again. There was a small map hidden inside. The map depicted the rough terrain of Sunflower Water Town and Wenshui City.

A black dot was marked at the edge of the map.

"This map is so rough. It should be drawn by Lin Jiqiu himself. The black dot that was specially marked should be where he was hiding, right?"

"It is very easy to get lost in this desolate mountain ridge that stretches for two hundred miles. It must be because he was afraid that he would not be able to find his way back. He did not expect that it would be so easy for me in the end!"

Lin Xuan followed the instructions on the simple map and directly found the black spot!

Suddenly, there was a narrow entrance at the bottom of the mountain ridge. Lin Xuan carefully entered the hidden cave and found that the cave was not as bare as he had imagined. Instead, there was a universe inside!

Inside the cave, it was like an underground palace. There was a long passageway that led to the deepest part of the cave. The passageway was paved with green bricks, and the lamps on both sides of the passageway were still lit. They had yet to be extinguished!

As Lin Xuan slowly approached the deepest part of the cave, he realized that it was a hall that could hold up the sky. It was even wider than the hall that the Lin Family had built.

The scene that made Lin Xuan feel the weirdest and almost scared him to the point of turning around and fleeing was in the middle of the main hall. There was a futon made of some unknown material that was glowing. Sitting on top of it was a white-haired old man whose eyes were tightly shut.

There was a terrifying fluctuation circulating on the old man's body, as if it could shatter everything in the world. Lin Xuan almost couldn't help but kneel down!

Only when Lin Xuan confirmed that the old man no longer had any life force left in his body did he heave a sigh of relief. He once again sized up the old man, but he didn't dare to be careless!

In front of the white-haired old man was a short stone table. Looking from afar, there was a small sword that looked like green jade placed on it. There was also a page of golden foil beside it. No one knew how long it had been there, but at a glance, it was extraordinary!1

"This is completely inconsistent with my guess. This is not the cave where Lin Jiqiu is hiding, but a mysterious underground cave. I don't know what era it was opened up in. "Is the elder on the praying mat the owner of this cave?"

Lin Xuan's pupils contracted. He was greatly shocked.

"Is this really a dead man? He looks no different from a living person..."

"Could it be... that the Heaven Comparing Atlas was obtained from this place by Lin Jiqiu?"

"Then how did he discover it... and why did he steal the Spirit Stone in the family..."

There were simply too many things that Lin Xuan could not understand. He only felt that if today's news were to spread, it would definitely shock the heavens and earth. It was likely that it would attract the covetous eyes of a true great figure!

That old man was absolutely an invincible expert when he was alive. It was unknown how long he had died, but his flesh was still rosy. This was the sign of a physical body becoming a saint. Endless calamities would not be extinguished...

"This old man... could he be a Spirit Saint...?"

Lin Xuan suddenly felt a great sense of terror in his heart. A Spirit Saint was a legendary existence, and every single one of them was a great figure in the Immortal Domain. If this was true, he couldn't be underestimated!

"Even if they aren't the Spiritual Saint, they must be close to the Spiritual Saint realm!"

Fortunately, the old man's aura was restrained. If it wasn't for this, the entire mountain range would have been buried.

"This old man seems to have directly died of old age, passing away in this place..."

Even though Lin Xuan had some guesses in his mind, he didn't dare to get too close to the old man. The fluctuation in the old man's body was too terrifying, and Lin Xuan couldn't resist it at all.

He bypassed the main hall and looked at the rows of stone rooms behind the main hall. These stone rooms had already been opened by someone. Obviously, this place had already been visited by someone.

"Being visited by someone also means that this place is not dangerous!"

Lin Xuan murmured and carefully walked towards those stone rooms.

"If there is any danger, it will be the same as the golden foil in front of the old man and the green jade sword. No one dares to take it away!"

Indeed, as he said, Lin Xuan entered several stone rooms in a row. Most of them were empty, except for the bottles and jars on the ground that still contained some medicinal fragrance.

"These medicinal pills were refined by an old man who is close to the spirit sage realm. How powerful would the medicinal effects be? It has been so long and there is still a lingering medicinal fragrance..."

Lin Xuan sighed with emotion. He continued to walk around the last few stone rooms. All of them were empty, and there was nothing left!

"They really moved everything clean. The remains of an expert close to the Spirit Saint Realm. How rich must they be? They can even create a supreme sect out of thin air!"
