Chapter 379: The Trapped Dragon Well’s Anomaly
"Then they disappeared into the well. I also tried entering the Trapped Dragon Well, but couldn’t get in. So I stayed here for three days, hoping to see something unusual, but nothing happened."
Liu Zhishang said.
"Oh?"
Ye Qingtian had probed using the Netherworld Forbidden Technique but had overlooked this place.
Now, taking a closer look, there indeed was an ancient array here, concealing all traces, creating an effect as if ’crossing the sea by a trick.’
This array is extremely old, at least a thousand years old.
No wonder it wasn’t detected back then.
"Huh? It’s actually the work of the same person as the array at the ancestral home of the Ye Family."
Ye Qingtian showed a faint smile.
Before him was an ancient well with nine chains beside it, rusted and exuding an aura of antiquity.
When the wind blew, the nine chains clinked, and terrible sounds came from within the well.
"Moo!"
Ye Qingtian and Xiao Jianting, along with others, clearly heard the sound of a cow coming from within the well.
Legend has it that a dragon’s roar is like a cow’s, making one wonder if there truly is a dragon trapped inside this well.
"This place is interesting, it really feels like a dragon is trapped below,"
Xiao Jianting said solemnly upon approaching.
"Alright, you all stay here and watch, I’ll go inside,"
Ye Qingtian said.
"Want me to go in with you?"
Xiao Jianting was very interested.
"Alright."
Just as the two were about to enter, a rustling sound reached their ears.
"Wait, let’s hide first."
To avoid startling the enemy, Ye Qingtian led everyone to hide nearby.
Soon, a group of people appeared there.
These people were dressed in bizarre clothing, with spirit artifacts and runes adorning them, giving off an indescribable eeriness.
There were four men and two women, all young.
The two women were stunningly beautiful, yet their peculiar attire gave them a unique aura.
Like roses with thorns, particularly alluring yet too dangerous to approach.
"If Long Wuya’s information is correct, the thing we want is in this ancient well,"
a handsome man beside them said.
"Alright! Let’s prepare to go down,"
one of the women said coldly.
"Wait!"
The leading woman stopped the group.
"What’s wrong, Senior Sister?"
Everyone looked at Chou Lifei with confusion.
Chou Lifei couldn’t help but say, "Long Wuya knew of the thing we wanted long ago, why didn’t he take it? Did he not have any thoughts about it?"
The other woman, Pei Junling, nodded, "Yes, this sacred object is coveted by the entire Spirit Void Dao, how could Long Wuya not be tempted?"
"Spirit Void Realm?"
Ye Qingtian frowned, glancing at the others.
Xiao Jianting whispered, "I have heard a bit about the Spirit Void Dao, it’s similar to the Hidden Sect in the Martial Arts Realm. Spirit Void Dao has many Spirit Masters far stronger than Long Wuya!"
"Oh, I see."
Ye Qingtian nodded.
Xiao Jianting’s eyes held a trace of excitement, "Looking at their spirit talismans and spiritual artifacts, this group is no small matter."
"Their coming here indicates there’s something in the Trapped Dragon Well they need,"
Liu Zhishang analyzed at the side.
"There’s no rush, let’s wait for them to go down first and see,"
the corner of Xiao Jianting’s mouth curved into a sinister smile.
...
"Oh my, the Celestial Masters of Spirit Realm Profound Sect are here and you didn’t even inform us!"
At this time, another group arrived, about twenty people.
"Hm? These people seem to be from a Spiritual Technique Family,"
Liu Zhishang couldn’t help but say.
"Who are you?"
Chou Lifei and the others’ eyes showed a hint of caution.
"We are from the Zhang Family, Hong Family, Profound Yin Sect, and Celestial Night Sect of the Spiritual Art Realm. We are also the main force of the Spiritual Art Realm."
These people introduced their identities.
"Well, with Long Wuya and the Xing Family gone, in the secular Spiritual Art Realm, you are the respected ones!"
Chou Lifei couldn’t help but say.
"We heard the Celestial Masters from the Spirit Realm Profound Sect were descending here, and quickly came from all over Huaxia, just to see the honored Masters. Of course, if the Celestial Masters have anything for us to do, just let us know."
These people wore big smiles, almost willing to grovel.
"We should go out too,"
Ye Qingtian suggested.
"Good!"
Xiao Jianting was the most excited, his face filled with enthusiasm.
"Huh? Another group?"
When Ye Qingtian’s group appeared, the others were visibly startled.
"Who are you?"
Immediately, over twenty pairs of eyes shot towards Ye Qingtian and his group in unison.
"We are from the Flame Fire Sect, a great Spiritual Art sect in Lingnan, and these are our two Young Masters from the Flame Fire Sect. Greetings to all the Celestial Masters."
Liu Zhishang acted as the old servant, arranging an identity for the group.
However, Ye Qingtian and Xiao Jianting stood with their hands behind their backs, looking dismissive of the others.
This Spiritual Art sect was wiped out by Xiao Jianting not long ago, hence Liu Zhishang quickly used it.
"Hmph!"
Xiao Jianting snorted coldly, and immediately, flames rose from his body.
"It really is the Flame Fire Sect’s Spirit Technique!"
Many recognized the Flame Fire Sect’s Spirit Technique, and couldn’t help but say so.
Chou Lifei nodded, "Oh, I see. But with so many people appearing, it’s probably not just to meet us."
"Celestial Masters, calm your anger! We heard there was a treasure in the Trapped Dragon Well, so we came,"
the major powers of each Spiritual Technique Family quickly pleaded, revealing the truth.
"Oh, I see,"
Chou Lifei nodded.
"No wonder all these headstrong ones showed up when they heard of the treasure’s appearance, but treasures are not acquired that easily."
Fang Zilong of the Spirit Realm Profound Sect and the other two junior brothers sneered.
The show of strength by Xiao Jianting earlier seemed childish to them; even the lowest disciple in the Spirit Realm Profound Sect could use such spirit techniques.
Chou Lifei and Pei Junling scrutinized Ye Qingtian and his group for a moment and then withdrew their gaze.
They had already determined Ye Qingtian and the others posed no threat to them.
"If that’s the case, shall we enter the Trapped Dragon Well, Celestial Master?"
Someone suggested.
In front of the Trapped Dragon Well, Chou Lifei and the five wore solemn expressions.
"Two Senior Sisters, since we came with the Master’s command, we must not return empty-handed, even if there’s danger."
Fang Zilong said.
Chou Lifei nodded, "Alright, since that’s the case, let’s explore. Everyone be careful."
The five exchanged a glance, then took action.
Firstly, all five used spiritual artifacts to protect themselves, and then they started throwing spirit talismans into the Trapped Dragon Well.
Immediately, crackling sounds emerged from the Trapped Dragon Well, like the tearing of lightning.
"Moo, moo..."
In an instant, the sound of a cow echoed from within the Trapped Dragon Well, as if a mighty dragon was struggling to break free.
"Splash, splash..."
Inside, the well water boiled up, mist surging straight into the sky.
An eerie atmosphere permeated, tightening everyone’s hearts.
"Look, look, what’s that..."
As the water from the well rippled out of the Trapped Dragon Well, everyone was stunned, full of disbelief.
Even Ye Qingtian and Xiao Jianting frowned slightly.
