Chapter 127: Chapter 127

So unless it was Ancestor Li of the Lei Clan personally taking action, only then could the power be controlled to the limit, piercing only the protection without harming the grotto heaven.

Alternatively, one could use Wu Shuangge's Mixed Yuan Gold Bowl, using filth and poison to corrode and dissolve a portion of the protective power.

As long as the erosion was swift enough, quick enough, a hole could be broken before the other parts of the power could shift over, allowing someone to enter.

And this power wouldn't be like forcibly blasting it open, making the entire grotto heaven withstand all the impact.

"Then it must be right, it's the Sorrow Cave Heaven.

I advise you not to go; a long time ago, more than one group of people had been there already.

An ancestor of my family had gone there a long time ago.

It is recorded that the place was filled with a strong alien power, making it difficult for Qi Refinement, along with rampant demonic qi and evil flourishing.

My ancestor left a family edict, saying that the Sorrow Cave Heaven was the mausoleum of a fearsome strong man, and forbade descendants from disturbing it."

Yu Ziqing almost burst out laughing.

From this, one could tell what kind of people your family were.

People who explore forbidden lands and seek out cave heaven blessed lands year-round, can still say such things?

Ancestor No.4 must have been taught a lesson inside back then.

So after coming back, he instructed not to disturb.

If he hadn't been beaten severely inside, your ancestor would probably have even dug up the strong man's ashes to see if they were useful.

No.4 himself felt a bit embarrassed; he knew his own family matters, so he quickly changed the topic.

"Of course, that's because my ancestor was only at the Sixth Tier when exploring the Sorrow Cave Heaven.

Otherwise, there would definitely have been more information.

Although no one in our family has been there since, we have always been keeping an eye on this Sorrow Cave Heaven.

I know recently, the Lei Clan from Dazhen seems to be preparing to explore it.

They aren't the first ones to go either.

More than a hundred years ago, Dali's Lihuo Institute had cooperated once with Dazhen's Crown Prince to explore it.

But that time, they all suffered heavy losses, with two Dao Cultivators falling inside.

It's said that Dali lost a Shadow Envoy and the then-Deputy Chief next only to the Shadow Supreme.

Everyone else also came back injured.

Later, I heard people from Dazhen say that they disturbed a dead spirit there that almost killed them all.

They paid a great price before finally sealing the dead spirit.

After they got out, they further reinforced the grotto heaven's entrance protection.

Over the past hundred years, no one has gone again."

After finishing, No.4 thought and said.

"That's roughly it, I don't know anything more specific."

"Thank you." Yu Ziqing cupped his hands in gratitude.

"You're welcome, the intelligence you provided saved my life; actually, the information I'm giving in return doesn't match up to yours.

If there are similar questions in the future, feel free to ask me; I might not dare say about others, but I'll know a bit about this kind of thing."

Following the principle of speaking as little as possible, Yu Ziqing bid farewell to No.4 and left the Seventh Floor.

Yu Ziqing opened his eyes and put away the Seventh Floor ring.

He was a bit puzzled; more than a hundred years ago, Dazhen had already cooperated once with Lihuo Institute.

Logically, Dazhen should have a lot of data, right? But why did Lei Yu seem unaware of this?

Is there some information that even the Lei Clan couldn't obtain?

Or maybe Lei Yu actually knew these but still wanted to enter Sorrow Cave Heaven for another purpose.

Standing up, Yu Ziqing went to find Old Yang, who was exercising with the village chief.

"I have something I want to ask you."

"Is it still about formations?"

"No, do you know Sorrow Cave Heaven?"

"No, I've never heard of this name."

"Ha, there's something you don't know?" Yu Ziqing laughed.

"There are as many matters in the world as there are stars in the sky; even cave heaven blessed lands are numerous like hairs on a cow. How could I possibly know them all?"

Yu Ziqing recorded the information he just got from No.4 onto a jade scroll to archive it and let Old Yang take a look.

Old Yang frowned at a glance.

"More than a hundred years ago, Dali's Lihuo Institute and Dazhen joined hands and still failed.

A No.2 figure in the Shadow Department even died.

How come I don't have the slightest impression of such an event?"

Old Yang immediately sensed something was wrong and closed his eyes to recall.

"More than a hundred years ago, I was just in Daqian's Imperial City. If such a big event happened, I couldn't possibly have no impression.

The current Chief of the Shadow Department, Ye Jiuyuan, came into power less than a hundred years ago, a few decades after what you mentioned.

According to the Shadow Department's tradition, the previous Chief probably died, and there has been no news about him ever since.

If what No.4 said is true, then it must be Dali's Shadow Department and Dazhen's Crown Prince jointly suppressing the news.

To cover it up so strictly, there must surely be the intention of Emperor Li and Emperor Zhen behind it."

After finishing, Old Yang looked at Yu Ziqing, feeling that he might be inviting disaster again.

"You'd better not go to that Sorrow Cave Heaven.

If a matter can be covered so strictly without even the Lei Clan knowing, it's not something you can meddle in.

If Lei Yu knew about this but didn't tell you, then this guy must be up to no good. You shouldn't go either."

"Ha, do you think I want to go on an adventure?" Yu Ziqing laughed aloud.

"Even if I agreed to Lei Yu, I would at most take Wu Shuangge along to help him break the protection.

Exploring whatsoever, maybe I used to consider it, thinking to gain more benefits.
