Immortality Cultivation Era

Chapter 869 The Cave in the Cliff

When the car stops, Xia Shengtang gets off the car and takes out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. The pack has been soaked with blood. It is dry now. The cigarette tastes quite special.

Yue Xincheng walks over here. Xia Shengtang passes a cigarette to him. They smoke together and look around the surroundings.

Currently, they are situated in a valley. Not far away, there is a cliff several hundred meters high.

“Why don’t we go up there?” Xia Shengtang asks.

“The entrance is on the cliff.” Yue Xincheng sticks out his hand and points at the front, “Probably more than 30 meters high.”

Xia Shengtang is a bit surprised. He stares at the rock wall and suddenly grins.

The rock wall of the cliff is very even with a few rocks bulging. There is literally no point of strength.

“Look. Does the cliff look like being cut off by one slash?” Xia Shengtang says.

Yue Xincheng doesn’t say anything but he has been fascinated by it.

He doesn’t think about whether Xia Shengtang’s statement is possible. Instead, he only wonders how strong one should be to cut off the mountain. How awesome the act must be!

Xia Shengtang raises his head, motivates his aura and gathers it in his eyes. He looks up from below and suddenly knits his eyebrows.

There are some holes chiseled by edge tools on the rock wall. The diameters of the holes are not long. The holes looked like a man-made mountain-climbing rope. Besides, they should be made not long ago.

“It seems that you are right. Jin Hao has got here,” Xia Shengtang says.

Yue Xincheng snorts, “Great. Let him die here then.”

Xia Shengtang glimpses Yue Xincheng and asks, “You are so confident?”

Yue Xincheng puckers his lips, “If I cannot even kill Jin Hao, I will be too useless.”

Xia Shengtang says nothing and only cracks a smile. He increasingly feels that Yue Xincheng and Gao Ge have a lot in common.

“Do you think we should set off now or wait for Gao Ge to wake up first?” Xia Shengtang asks.

Yue Xincheng immediately understands Xia Shengtang’s words and asks in surprise, “Shengtang, will you go with me?”

“Why not? Are you worried that I will fight against you for the swordsman’s legacy?” Xia Shengtang says laughingly.

“Not really.” Yue Xincheng hastens to wave his head, “In this case, thank you.”

“Enough. After all, you and my sister are good friends. Otherwise, do you think I will help you?” Xia Shengtang says.

Yue Xincheng grins.

“Let your girlfriend watch Gao Ge. Let’s directly go up there,” Xia Shengtang says, “Set off early, come back early.”

“Okay but...” Yue Xincheng seems a bit worried.

Xia Shengtang laughs and seems to have known what Yue Xincheng is worried about now.

“Rest assured. If any danger really happens, Gao Ge will wake up in time.”

Hearing Xia Shengtang’s reply, Yue Xincheng lets out a sigh of relief and nods heavily.

Xia Shengtang turns around to look at the rock wall and narrows his eyes, saying, “Before going, you should be prepared.”

“What?”

Xia Shengtang turns to look at him.

He says in a grim voice, “I can feel that something dangerous is there.”

“Dangerous?” Yue Xincheng is shocked.

Previously, when they were faced with Jin Yun who was at the late stage of the realm of Grand Master, Yue Xincheng didn’t find Xia Shengtang was nervous at all.

Nevertheless, now, he finds a bit of grimness in Xia Shengtang’s eyes.

What does it indicate?

The thing in the rock wall is even more terrifying than a cultivator at the late stage of the realm of Grand Master!

“What? Are you afraid?” Xia Shengtang asks with laughter.

Yue Xincheng rubs his nose and doesn’t know how to answer the question.

Having stayed silent for a while, Yue Xincheng says, “Actually, I’m not afraid but a bit perturbed.”

Xia Shengtang doesn’t know whether to cry or to laugh. What kind of answer is that?

He stops laughing and takes a glance behind. After taking a deep breath, he says, “It seems that you are different from Gao Ge. If Gao Ge heard me say that, he couldn’t be perturbed. He could even feel excited because he knew that the more dangerous, the more benefits.”

Yue Xincheng thinks about it and feels that Xia Shengtang is right.

In light of what he knows about his boss, he thinks so too.

“No more talking. Let’s go up there and take a look first,” Xia Shengtang says. Then, he taps the ground and flies upward at an extremely fast speed.

Yue Xincheng is dumbstruck.

Normally, the cultivator can move agilely like a swallow when he reaches the realm of Grand Master. Otherwise, Xia Shengtang and Jin Yun couldn’t fight in the air. However, it is also a great cost of aura.

Yue Xincheng rubs his nose in confusion.

Xia Shengtang can move along the vertical rock wall quickly but now he is at the realm of Strength Exposure only. He can’t make it at all!

Fortunately, a rope droops.

He doesn’t know when Xia Shengtang prepares for the rope. Meanwhile, he thinks that if he has time, he must put a rope in his storage space too for unexpected needs.

He grabs the rope and starts to climb along the rock wall quickly.

Very quickly, he finds a cave up there.

When he was down there, he didn’t see any cave.

Can it be due to an enchantment?

“Here we are,” Xia Shengtang says with narrowed eyes, “There is a layer of energy. This cave cannot be seen from the foot of the mountain. However, when we come up here, we can see it then. It’s kind of a formation.”

Yue Xincheng coughs and feels shocked.

It takes all sorts to make a world!

“This formation must have existed for many years. It appears that the one who left the formation here must be some miraculous master!” Xia Shengtang sighs.

The formation’s maintenance requires energy. And this formation has lasted so many years. That is enough to indicate that the one who set up this formation was really strong.

“By the way, do you know who the swordsman leaving the legacy was?” Xia Shengtang suddenly turns his head and asks.

Yue Xincheng shakes his head, “I don’t know. What I know is that there is the swordsman’s legacy. It was my half master who told me about this. Since he didn’t tell me who left it, I suppose he doesn’t know it either.”

Xia Shengtang nods.

He is clear about what Yue Xincheng means by “half master”. Since the information is acquired from Horn Dragon, it must be reliable.

Having thought about it, he takes a deep breath.

“It’s no point thinking about these issues here. We will find the answers after we go inside.”

After saying that, Xia Shengtang lifts his feet and walks into the depths of the darkness.

“There are footprints here, which should be left not long ago. By estimate, five or six people have gone past here,” Xia Shengtang says.

“They must be Jin Hao and his men.” Yue Xincheng’s voice is murderous.
