Chapter 927 Who is the Yellow Bird?
"found it!"

Zhou You was thinking about a countermeasure when he suddenly heard Liu Jinguo's surprised voice.

I heard a panel prompt next to my ears that I had reached the entrance. That's right, I finally found it this time.

In the center of the temple, a statue stands in a majestic pose. Although many details have been worn away by rain and wind, the general outline is still recognizable.

"Master Zhou, I didn't think much of it at first, but the more I watch this action, the more familiar it seems!"

Liu Jinguo pointed at the statue and introduced, "This move is called...Knocking the Jade Cup, and it is a widely circulated basic boxing move."

That’s right, the inventor of this trick of holding the jade cup is none other than the Martial Saint of All Things himself.

This further verifies the fact that this place is the legacy of the Wanxiang Martial Saint.

Liu Jinguo stood at the same height as the statue, demonstrated a set of moves and said, "The boxing routine that has been passed down through the ages to counter the jade cup is called... Holding the Golden Plate!"

Liu Jinguo raised her palms upwards and placed them on the statue's wrists, blocking the statue's clenched fists.

She exhaled slightly and pushed the statue forward with force. Crack! The statue and the base were originally one piece, but her strength broke them apart and the statue flew backwards.

The statue fell to the ground, breaking the ground and revealing a dark entrance.

"My guess was right. The statue is the key. Follow the prompts and play the Golden Plate move. The statue will land in the designated position to open the entrance to the secret room!"

Liu Jinguo took out an object, which turned out to be a hand chime covered with seal characters, and shook it towards the hole made by the statue.

The pleasant sound echoed in all directions, like a flock of docile sheep neatly entering a cave, spreading back and forth in the dark underground space.

Zhou You moved his ears and turned around in a complicated manner. It can be seen that the terrain of the underground space is very complicated, but there is no sign of danger.

After a moment, the hand chime stopped and the sound ceased abruptly.

Liu Jinguo flicked the hand chime with her slender fingers and asked Zhou You, "Did you find it?"

Of course I found it.

This hand chime is a secret treasure of seal script, made by a blind master, and is a masterpiece that embodies the "seal script sound" tradition.

Just now, Liu Jinguo used seal sounds to explore the underground space. In addition to confirming whether it was safe, she also took the opportunity to scan all directions and confirmed that there were many people hiding nearby.

In fact, there was no need for seal sounds, these powerful warriors hiding in the dark had already been exposed. They were like running naked in front of Zhou You, without any secrets at all.

The three-dimensional map on the panel has deep red and light red spots of different sizes, with clear coordinates and distinct strengths.

"Don't waste time, let's go!"

Zhou You meant that we don’t need to bother with those people with ulterior motives.

"That's exactly what I meant!"

After saying this, Liu Jinguo made up her mind and invited Zhou You to fall into the hole in the ground together. The statue was leaning against the hole and extending downwards, like a stone staircase leading to a deep and dark underground space.

After a while...

Swish, swish, swish, one figure after another appeared, all of them were Beixuan’s famous strong warriors.

Huo Xiangui from Jueguang Sect, Sun Dingxiu from Wanxiu Mountain, Zheng Feixiong from Dayin Mountain, and other powerful warriors from other emerging sects, although most of them are in the early stages of becoming a strong warrior, their number is very considerable.

"He Zhenkong, you are the disciple of the second most important person in the world, but why didn't you take precautions? Liu Jinguo discovered your whereabouts in just a few moves. Where are your Golden Immortal Dao skills?"

He Zhenkong, who was being questioned, was the leader of Tiebi Mountain. He thought that a small sect had no human rights and was loudly questioned by Huo Xiangui.

The group of powerful warriors knew that something was wrong. The reason why they were discovered was because of Liu Jinguo's shaking hand chime.

"Which one of Zhou You and Liu Jinguo is a simple person? They have already guessed our existence. Their actions just now were nothing more than verifying their guess. Even if I can block the seal sound, they still have other ways."

He Zhenkong argued, "Don't forget, the subsequent treasure hunt still requires my um... Golden Immortal Dao methods, be polite to me!"

"You need to be more polite!"

Zheng Feixiong spoke, and upon hearing his voice, He Zhenkong's face turned pale and he dared not say another word. Then, Zheng Feixiong continued, "Everyone, Zhou You and Liu Jinguo must have come here for a purpose. As the saying goes, a phoenix will not land in a place without treasures. These two are both outstanding talents."

"The most likely reason for coming to this desolate wilderness is to cure Liu Jinguo's symptoms of being enchanted."

"According to my estimation, this place must be a treasure site. We cannot let them take advantage of it for nothing. Everyone who sees it should have a share."

Even if there is no other gain, the means to remove the charm is priceless and worth the risk.

This group of powerful warriors followed us all the way with the purpose of taking advantage of us.

Zhou You’s previous guess was correct. Their whereabouts could not be concealed, and someone must have followed them.

Only no one came from Juyi Mountain. After all, they had some friendship with Zhou You and didn't want to get involved in this mess.

"Okay, let's go!"

Zheng Feixiong is at the fourth level and has the strongest strength. He was the first to enter the underground space through the cave entrance.

The statue slanted and turned into a stone staircase, running across the cave entrance to the underground space. Since Zhou You and his companions had entered safely before, the danger was not great, so the warriors did not hesitate.

When He Zhenkong passed by the statue, he suddenly saw a few lines of tiny words on the broken base and couldn't help but look down.

It was not a big deal to look at it, but his eyes widened immediately, "Stop, there are words here."

"..."

For a moment, Zheng Feixiong and other powerful warriors stopped and urged He Zhenkong to decipher the text as soon as possible.

He Zhenkong studied and explained that although the characters on it were also old, they were several eras later than the ancient seal script and were closer to the current writing style.

So, it took him less than a moment to decipher the content of the text on the base.

"The martial arts path leads to sainthood, and one's strength rivals that of the Nine Cauldrons."

"The road to supremacy begins here."

The breathing around him became heavier. These few sentences were easy to understand. To sum it up, they contained the secret to becoming a Martial Saint.

"I think, if there is anyone in this world who can reverse the fall of Mei and restore Liu Jinguo to her original state, it is only the Martial Saint."

A strong warrior suddenly realized, "If even the Lord of the Mansion can't do it, who else can do it except the Martial Saint?"

Their eyes suddenly became burning, this place turned out to be a treasure trove of the Martial Saint.

A flash of red light appeared in Zheng Feixiong's pupils, and suddenly two white rays extended from his ribs. The white rays entangled in the middle of the void, causing the object to be torn into pieces.

Suddenly, palm-sized pieces of paper fell from the empty void.

Someone among the powerful army actually leaked the news?

If Zheng Feixiong hadn't intervened, this great fortune would have inevitably attracted late-stage strong warriors or even grandmasters to come forward, so how could they have a chance to take action? How could this be tolerated?
"No, not me!"

Qiang Wu, who was pulled out, defended himself with a pale face. He was also the leader of a small sect. At this moment, he was extremely scared and vulnerable in front of everyone.

After a while, the warriors worked together to kill him and hid the body in a storage bag.

"From now on, no one is allowed to leave. Everyone must move forward together. Anyone who disobeys... will die."

Zheng Feixiong gave the order with murderous intent.

Then he led a group of strong men and stepped on the statue into the cave. Before leaving, he did not forget to erase the lines of text to prevent them from being seen by later people.

only……

After everyone disappeared into the cave, the base of the statue began to glow, and the erased text reappeared, becoming clearer.
