The target point of the fourth level was a towering mountain range. From afar, one could not see the peak of the mountain. They could only vaguely see a few huge peaks that shot into the sky through the lingering clouds. The mountain range was as endless and vast as a river.
Although Immortal Venerable Nanji and the others had seen a lot and had long seen countless magnificent sceneries like this, they could not help but frown when facing such a mountain range. If this target point had a secret technique, it would probably not be easy to find a secret technique in such a vast mountain range. Of course, the most important thing was that they could feel their spiritual sense being suppressed and restricted.
“Shen Ping, can your divine sense clearly investigate?” Immortal Venerable Qi asked.
Shen Ping looked at the mountain range shrouded in clouds and shook his head. “Senior Qi, my divine sense can only extend for tens of thousands of feet. Any deeper and I will be disturbed.”
Immortal Venerable Yu said helplessly, “We can only sense dozens of feet away. We haven’t seen far. This suppression is too great.”
Immortal Venerable Nanji said, “Let’s enter the mountain range and see the situation first.”
The group followed the mountain path to the foot of the first mountain in the mountain range. Before they could investigate their surroundings, the jade plate on their bodies floated out again. The surface of the jade plate flickered with light patterns. This time, it actually gathered into a translucent jade book. On the jade book, there were lines of special words.
“T-This is a Dao pattern!!”
“Could it be that the 52 secret techniques are on these jade plates?”
All the Immortal Venerables, including the Immortal Venerable Nanji, looked at the translucent jade book with excitement in their eyes.
Shen Ping, Lian Xuejin, and Lin Yu were confused.
Immortal Venerable Qi glanced at them and explained, “Dao patterns are a language that represents the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Be it secret techniques or self-created Great Dao divine powers, they can only be carried by these words. The immortal seal divine runes can only carry ordinary immortal Dao methods.”
Shen Ping came to a realization and could not help but say, “Senior Qi, in that case, as long as we obtain enough jade plates, we can obtain 52 Great Dao secret techniques?”
At this moment, the Immortal Venerable Nanji smiled and said, “That’s right. The Dao patterns on these ten jade plates can’t even be considered a general outline. It should be a remnant of a secret technique. I had guessed that the jade plate was related to a secret technique. I didn’t expect the secret technique to be carried on the jade plate. I think there should be many jade plates in this mountain range. Let’s not waste time. If the geniuses and Immortal Venerables of the other races arrive, it will depend on their own methods!”
The other Immortal Venerables and Shen Ping understood.
Since the jade plate was related to a secret technique, there would definitely be a fight. It was still fine within the Human Race, but if it was between the races, there would be no fear. They would definitely fight. However, along the way, they did not see or sense any Beast Spirit geniuses from other races. This meant that the Human Race might be the first to arrive.
Thinking of this, the group hurriedly entered through the entrance of the mountainside. The interior of the mountain was wider than the divine sense of Shen Ping and the others. However, there were a large number of caves inside. Just like the Ten Thousand Cave Mountain in the western district of the Abyss of Supreme Darkness, they were densely divided. Moreover, every cave was winding and rugged, making it impossible to probe to the end with divine sense.
Everyone looked at Shen Ping. After all, only Shen Ping’s divine sense was suppressed and restrained the least. “There are golden-purple bugs in the twelfth cave on the left!”
“Let’s go over.”
Swoosh! Swoosh! As their magic power surged, Shen Ping and the other Immortal Venerables quickly arrived in the cave. The moment they saw the golden-purple spider, the spider pounced over. A large number of golden spider silk swept from all directions.
Boom, boom.
Immortal Venerable Nanji immediately took out an immortal artifact to attack. However, when the immortal artifact struck the golden-purple spider, there was not even a mark. When the other Immortal Venerables saw this, they also activated their immortal artifacts and magic treasures to attack, but the outcome was the same.
Shen Ping thought of the golden purple spider from before and hurriedly shouted, “Seniors, we have to use the methods of the Heaven and Earth Great Dao to attack.”
Although the cultivation levels of Immortal Venerable Nanji and the others were suppressed to the Void Refinement Realm, all of them had comprehended the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and could barely use a trace of the power of the Great Dao. The consumption was huge. However, after activating it, they indeed easily killed the golden-purple spider.
This time, after the golden-purple spider died, it did not leave a corpse. Instead, a ball of light appeared. In the ball of light, there was a beast blood’s essence and a jade plate.
“Haha, there is indeed a jade plate in the mountain range.” Immortal Venerable Nanji and the others laughed. They did not know that there was a secret technique engraved on the jade plate. Now that they knew, they were naturally excited to see the jade plate again.
Immortal Venerable Yao reminded them, “The golden-purple spider we encountered previously had an extremely powerful illusion ability. We didn’t even notice it at all. In the end, Shen Ping dealt with it and we escaped. This golden-purple spider doesn’t have any illusion ability at all. It should be suppressed by the special environment of the mountain range or deliberately set up by that artifact spirit senior. Its goal is to let us kill the golden-purple worm and obtain the jade plate.”
Immortal Venerable Bing nodded, “Indeed, the test of this mountain range should be to find the golden-purple worm in so many cave tunnels and kill it. I think we can act separately. This way, the efficiency will be higher.”
Immortal Venerable Qi, Immortal Venerable Yu, Immortal Venerable Nanji, and the others looked at each other and immediately understood what Immortal Venerable Bing meant. The jade plate concerned 52 secret techniques. Whoever obtained the most would obtain more Great Dao secret techniques. If they acted together, how to distribute them was a problem..
