Lin Yuwei and the Imperial Master took their simple luggage and set off on a long journey to the valley. Along the way, the scenery was picturesque, but they had no intention of appreciating it.

At first, the road was relatively flat, and their carriage moved smoothly. However, as the journey progressed, the road gradually became rugged and the carriage slowed down. The imperial teacher looked out the window and said solemnly, "Princess, the road ahead may be more difficult. We need to be mentally prepared." Lin Yuwei nodded, with determination in her eyes.

As night fell, they had to find a place to set up camp. Lin Yuwei and the Imperial Master worked together to build a bonfire and prepare a simple dinner. The cries of wild animals could be heard from the surrounding woods from time to time, which made people feel scared. Lin Yuwei looked at the Imperial Master with some uneasiness: "Isn't this place so gloomy? Is there any danger?" The Imperial Master comforted her: "Don't be afraid, Princess. I am here to protect you."

The next morning, they continued on their journey. The mountain road became steeper and steeper, and the carriage could no longer move forward, so they had to dismount and walk. The Imperial Master carefully explored the road ahead, and Lin Yuwei followed closely behind. Suddenly, the Imperial Master stopped and signaled Lin Yuwei to be silent. On the road ahead, a huge python was lying across the road, spitting out its tongue and staring at them.

Lin Yuwei was startled, but soon calmed down. The Imperial Master took out a dagger from his bosom and approached the python cautiously. The python sensed the danger and attacked fiercely. The Imperial Master dodged to the side and the dagger in his hand accurately stabbed the python's vital point. The python struggled for a few times and finally stopped moving.

After this thrilling experience, they continued to move forward. At noon, the sun was blazing and the heat was unbearable. Lin Yuwei and the Imperial Master's clothes were soaked with sweat, but they did not dare to stop.

Finally, in the evening, they saw the outline of the valley. The valley was shrouded in mist, exuding a mysterious atmosphere. The imperial teacher said: "Princess, we have reached the entrance of the valley, but there must be traps here, so we must be careful."

They walked into the valley carefully. The valley was unusually quiet, with only the sound of their footsteps echoing. Suddenly, the ground began to tremble, and countless spikes emerged from the ground. Lin Yuwei and the Imperial Master jumped nimbly to avoid them. Then, huge rocks rolled down from the mountain walls on both sides. The Imperial Master pulled Lin Yuwei and hid in a narrow cave.

When the danger was over, they continued to move forward. Finally, deep in the valley, they saw a simple wooden house. The national teacher said, "This must be the residence of the great man."

They went forward and knocked on the door, which slowly opened. A white-haired old man appeared in front of them. The old man looked at them sharply and asked, "What are you doing here?" Lin Yuwei said respectfully, "Senior, we heard that there is a treasure here that is very important to us. I hope you can help us." The old man sneered, "Treasure? How can you give it to me just because you ask for it!"

Lin Yuwei said hurriedly: "Senior, we are not doing this for personal gain, but to save the people. If we can get the treasure, we will be able to resolve a huge crisis." The old man was silent for a moment and said: "Words are not enough, can you prove your sincerity?"

Lin Yuwei and the imperial teacher looked at each other, then Lin Yuwei took out a jade pendant from her arms and said, "Senior, this is my royal item, representing my identity and determination." The old man took the jade pendant, looked at it carefully, and his expression eased slightly.

The national teacher struck while the iron was hot and said: "Senior, we have come all the way and experienced hardships just to seek the treasure. I hope you will believe in our sincerity." The old man pondered for a long time and finally said: "Forget it, since you are so persistent, I will give you a chance. But this treasure has spirituality. Whether you can get it depends on your luck."

The old man led them to a secret room, in the middle of which was a brocade box. The old man said, "The treasure is in this brocade box, go and get it yourself." Lin Yuwei and the national teacher walked forward and slowly opened the brocade box. A flash of light passed by, and the treasure appeared before their eyes.

However, just as they were about to pick up the treasure, a powerful force shook them away. The old man said: "This treasure has its own will. Only by passing its test can you truly own it."

Lin Yuwei and the Imperial Master stood up again, adjusted their breath, and prepared to face the test of the treasure...
