Are you crazy? Who asked you to hunt for treasures in the emperor's harem?

"Dan Zhen, who is Yao Yue? His relationship with the princess is really special! He actually walked all the way from Qinhuai City to this ancient secret realm with the princess at an unhurried pace!"

Zuo Gongzhi glanced at the tent where Yu Youwei was resting and spoke lightly.

"Humph, that's just a nice way of saying it!"

You Danzhen snorted coldly, "Yaoyue probably just wants to verify whether the ancient secret realm that the prince mentioned is true. They are just a bunch of old foxes, staring at the princess in disguise! I don't know what the prince is thinking, to let the princess get so close to that old man Yaoyue!"

"Dan Zhen!"

Before You Danzhen finished speaking, Zuo Gongzhi shouted, "Talk about the princess, don't bring the prince into this!"

At this moment, You Danzhen obviously realized something, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

"Dan Zhen, you and I just need to follow what the prince said, secretly ensure the princess's safety, and report to the prince all the people who come into contact with the princess. The rest is none of our business!"

…………..

the next day,

Ye Fan and Liu Mengying continued to explore around the red line with the students of Mingyuan College, while Wen Zheng went to the contact point agreed with Lao Miao again.

at sunset,

Like other Xuan practitioners, Ye Fan and his group did not find a way to cross the red line, but they did explore a teleportation array that many people had explored...

The night gradually fell,

"Ye Fan, Meng Ying!"

Everyone was eating by the campfire next to the camp, when suddenly, a male voice that was quite familiar to both Ye Fan and Liu Mengying was heard. They both looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was Miao Qingcheng, whom they had not seen for a long time. At this moment, the other person still had a nest of mushrooms on his head, which looked quite funny.

Next to Lao Miao was Wen Zheng, who had a smile on his face.

"Lao Miao, Elder Wen Zheng!"

Ye Fan and Liu Mengying immediately stood up and greeted them.

Afterwards, Lao Miao and Elder Wen Zheng sat by the campfire, eating mustard greens and pork rice with big mouthfuls, taking a sip of liquor from time to time, and cutting a piece of roasted lamb chops that were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

"Lao Miao, how long have you been hungry?"

Ye Fan was surprised when he saw Miao Qingcheng eating voraciously. It was the first time he saw Miao Qingcheng eating like this.

The other students of Mingyuan Academy were curious about the old man brought back by Wen Zheng, but since Elder Wen Zheng had no intention of introducing him, they all chose not to ask.

"I haven't had a drop of water in almost half a month!"

Miao Qingcheng took another gulp of the liquor, "The Huangmei wine from Jiangzhou City is really good... Although a cultivator can go without food or water for a long time, they will still get hungry... Especially when they are always on the move..."

"About half a month ago, I discovered that the Xuanhuo Alliance among the three sects seemed to have discovered a special teleportation array..."

...........

An hour later,

Ye Fan and Liu Mengying finally understood why Miao Qingcheng, who had always been gentle and polite when eating, was now eating like a wolf. The new students of Mingyuan Academy were shocked and admired, because they knew that the old man in front of them, who looked quite funny, was actually a super expert who had entered the ancient secret realm, fought with a bunch of terrifying beasts, and passed through countless traps...

"Lao Miao, this means there is already a way to cross the defensive formation near the red line and enter the ancient secret realm!"

Ye Fan asked a question that he and everyone present were very concerned about.

"I don't think so!"

Miao Qingcheng thought for a while and finally shook her head.

Under the gaze of the crowd, Miao Qingcheng slowly said: "Although I and many people entered some teleportation arrays, encountered many dangerous crises, and obtained many good things... it looks very real, but anyone who is not exploring the ancient secret realm for the first time knows that those so-called treasures, mysterious stones, medicinal herbs, etc. are the least valuable things in the ancient secret realm!"

At this point, Miao Qingcheng paused, "The truly valuable things in the ancient secret realm are opportunities... or inheritance!"

"inherited?"

Ye Fan frowned slightly.

"Yes!"

Miao Qingcheng nodded, "No one can tell how the ancient secret realm came into being, but one thing is certain, the ancient secret realm contains the inheritance left by the ancient great powers, and the ancient great powers are at least the monarch level...If they can obtain the monarch level inheritance, their profound energy cultivation will most likely reach the monarch level in the future. This is also the reason why every time an ancient secret realm appears, countless profound practitioners will flock to it!"

"And there are rumors that there is a legacy left by the legendary Saint-level cultivator in the ancient secret realm... But the Saint-level thing is too ethereal. At least I have never heard of anyone obtaining a Saint-level legacy..."

"This is normal. After all, if one's Xuan Qi cultivation reaches the legendary Saint level, then one's life span will basically be the same as the heaven and earth..."

Miao Qingcheng's voice was not loud, but it stirred up a storm in the hearts of the young students of Mingyuan Academy.

"Lao Miao, I heard stories about inheritance from my father when I was a child..."

At this time, Liu Mengying spoke up, "According to my father, there seems to be a side effect of inheriting something. One can only reach the level of cultivation of the person who left the inheritance in one's lifetime... He said that inheritance is good, but it also leaves a shackle on the path of Xuan Qi cultivation for Xuan practitioners!"

"Mengying, your father is right!"

Miao Qingcheng continued, "It is almost impossible for the person who has inherited the legacy to surpass the cultivation level of the person who left the legacy... But as I just said, the person who left the legacy in the ancient secret realm has a cultivation level of at least the King Rank, and the King Rank is a rare existence in the entire Piaomiao Continent... At least none of the heads of the five sects is a King Rank!"

"The three sects do have the presence of the Lord, which is also the foundation of the three sects. However, the Lords of the three sects are almost all in seclusion, seeking breakthroughs, and have not been concerned with worldly affairs for who knows how many years! Those old guys will probably only show up when the sect is facing life and death!"

At the end, Miao Qingcheng was a little emotional. He had also been in seclusion for a hundred years before, seeking a breakthrough, but in the end he got nothing...

"That's it..."

Ye Fan understood a little.

"Of course, there are some special cases!"

At this time, Wen Zheng spoke up, "Because the ancient secret realm is extremely dangerous, there are also monarchs who have fallen. Before they fell, the monarchs might have tried to preserve their understanding and comprehension of Xuan Qi cultivation. This kind of 'external' opportunity is what most Xuan practitioners are looking for, especially the descendants of the fallen monarch-level Xuan cultivator, their sect or family!"

"After all, other opportunities in the ancient secret realm rely purely on luck, but the fallen monarchs have traces to follow!"

"The Cuilin Pavilion among the Five Sects has been searching for a powerful monarch from their ancestor. He died in an ancient secret realm, but there is no regular pattern to the appearance and disappearance of ancient secret realms, so they have never found him!"

"Of course, it is possible that it has been found, but there is no suitable person to inherit it!"

Wen Zheng quickly explained to Ye Fan and the others.

"Hasn't this ancient secret realm always been there since it appeared?"

Ye Fan frowned slightly, "I thought it was a fixed location like a treasure trove!"
