Chapter 1578 A Cultural Treasure
“Really?”
Everyone was stunned and looked at John Doe in confusion.
Just now, at the call of He Gaoming, everyone clearly saw the situation under the clouds in the river. Although they couldn’t see it now, nothing strange had happened during this period of time. How could the disappearance of the scene in the water have anything to do with John Doe?
Could it be that John Doe had triggered some kind of mechanism?
“Let me tell you the details.”
Fang Qiu said, “When I went to the other side of the mountain just now, I saw the river connected to the source of the water. I also saw the situation under the clouds in the river. I found that the Second Venerable of the Nirvana Organization has entered the ruins. He is now trying to climb up the Heavenly Ladder.”
“What?”
“Is that group really from the Nirvana Organization?”
“It seems that what the Sword Fanatic told you is right. Just now, we were sure that the group of people must be from the Nirvana Organization because of their clothes. We were not sure, but we didn’t expect the person to be the Second Venerable!”
The four patriarchs, Master Numinous, and the four gurus of the Sword Sect frowned at the same time.
They had all come into contact with the Nirvana Organization before.
They also understood how powerful the Venerables were in the Nirvana Organization.
In the past, the strength of Seventh Venerable alone was already a headache for them.
They didn’t expect that the Second Venerable would come this time and bring so many people!
“At that time, I heard He Gaoming shouting and was about to come over and tell everyone about the situation, but I was attacked by a big fish. While chasing after the big fish, I went to the bottom of the river and reached a strange space. After I came out, I mastered the channel to enter and exit the relic at will.”
At this point, everyone was surprised.
A way to get in and out of the relic at will?
Could he go out and in the relic at will?
Was he so powerful?
However, Fang Qiu didn’t stop. Instead, he continued, “After mastering this method, I tried to go out and meet the Lord Virtuous of the Nirvana Organization at the gate.”
Hearing this, everyone’s expression changed drastically in an instant.
“Is the Lord Virtuous of the Nirvana Organization here?”
“We mentioned him before, but I didn’t expect him to come!”
“Has Lord Virtuous of Nirvana really reached the One-Flower Core Formation?”
“If he is so powerful, none of us would be a match for him!”
Everyone asked one after another, looking a little worried and nervous.
“Yes.”
While everyone was asking, Fang Qiu nodded without hesitation and said, “Lord Virtuous does have the strength in the One-Flower Core Formation. When I just went out, he attacked me and wanted to kill me. Fortunately, I mastered the method of entering and leaving the ruins at will. I returned to the ruins.
“Later, I found that in addition to the members of the Nirvana Organization, another group of people came.
“But they seemed to be sent flying as soon as they entered the ruins.
“I went out to have a look.”
“I found they were from the Seven Kingdoms headed by Murica. Two gurus from each of these countries formed a team of fourteen gurus.
“They were tricked into the ruins by Lord Virtuous and sent flying by the domineering Qi of Heaven and Earth in the ruins. They all got injured and fought against Lord Virtuous.
“However, those fourteen gurus from the Seven Kingdoms are not easy to deal with. Lord Virtuous didn’t have the upper hand in the battle with them.
“In the end, both sides suffered losses. The gurus of the Seven Kingdoms were ready to escape, but they were all killed by Lord Virtuous and me!”
Speaking of that, Fang Qiu finally stopped.
Everyone was also shocked.
They didn’t expect Fang Qiu to go out and kill all the foreign gurus during this period of time.
After listening to the whole story, what shocked everyone the most was that John Doe had mastered the passage to enter and exit the ruins at will.
This kind of thing was so unbelievable.
That was to say, as long as this relic existed, John Doe would be invincible.
As long as he wanted to, he could enter the relic instantly so that no one could hurt him.
“Have you joined forces with Lord Virtuous to kill the gurus of the Seven Kingdoms?”
Master Numinous asked in disbelief.
“Yes.”
Fang Qiu nodded and said, “How could I let foreigners break into the relic of Huaxia at will? Since they had come here, I couldn’t let them go easily. The most important thing is that everyone was inside the relic and knew nothing about the situation outside. If I had let any of them off and attracted many guided missiles, it would be a little terrible.”
Although they couldn’t understand why John Doe joined forces with Lord Virtuous, everyone nodded in agreement.
However, in the face of fourteen gurus, only by joining forces with Lord Virtuous could John Doe kill all of them!
“Didn’t the Lord Virtuous attack you?” Diwu Mingchuan asked.
“He wanted to.”
Fang Qiu sneered and said, “However, in the fierce battle with the fourteen gurus, he was besieged and injured. He consumed a lot of internal Qi, so he didn’t dare to act rashly. I also consumed a lot of internal Qi, and I was not sure if I could defeat him, so I went straight back to the relic to recover.”
“The Lord Virtuous has been injured and consumed a lot of internal Qi. That is to say, he is at his weakest now!”
A guru of the Sword Sect stood up and said, “This is a great opportunity. Why don’t we go out together and join forces to drive away the Lord Virtuous?”
Everyone’s eyes lit up.
“I went out again just now.”
However, Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “He’s no longer at the entrance of the relic. I searched carefully but didn’t find any trace of him. This person is extremely cunning. He must have hidden in the distance to recuperate and regulate his breath!”
“What should we do?” Patriarch Qian asked.
“There is no time to lose.”
Fang Qiu said, “Let’s take action first. Take out all the treasures left by our ancestors. Then we can join forces to deal with Second Venerable and the others!”
“Okay.”
Everyone nodded to show approval of his method.
They all knew they came here to protect the relic and bring the treasures back to Huaxia!
Now that they were in the ruins, the most important thing was to find all the treasures.
“We don’t have much time left. Let’s continue searching separately.” Fang Qiu suggested.
Everyone dispersed again.
There were too many people and too many forces. Therefore, Fang Qiu was too embarrassed to let his own force occupy all the directions, so he called He Gaoming and the others to search the ruins together.
With the assistance of the tiny tripod, Fang Qiu could vaguely see something, the treasures hidden in the ruins.
Soon, Fang Qiu took He Gaoming and the others to the back of the thatched cottage. On the top of the mountain, they walked all the way to the peak of the mountain.
When they arrived at the highest peak, something appeared.
There was a reading desk at the peak of the mountain.
It was made of ordinary bluestone, five square meters. There was a stone block for sitting on it, and there was a rectangular stone table in front of the stone block.
Several bamboo slips were on the stone table!
The color of these bamboo slips was ruddy. They didn’t look old at all. However, when people looked at them carefully, they could clearly feel an ancient aura.
“What is this?”
Seeing the bamboo slips on the stone table, He Gaoming rushed up excitedly, but he didn’t dare to act rashly.
The other brothers were also very curious.
“Could it be some kind of technique?”
“It will be great if it’s a technique.”
“The oldest is so amazing. He took us to find such a treasure so quickly.”
While everyone was discussing in surprise, Fang Qiu stepped forward, sat down at the stone table, picked up the bamboo slips on the stone table, and looked at them.
“What do you think? Is it a technique?”
The Sword Fanatic came up and asked.
“No.”
Fang Qiu shook his head with a smile and said, “It’s about culture.”
When he spoke, he even opened the bamboo slips for his brothers to have a look.
They looked at these bamboo slips and found it was really a cultural classic left by some talent in ancient times.
Everyone was very disappointed.
It was not easy to find a treasure, but it turned out to be a useless cultural classic. They were very depressed.
But Fang Qiu was very happy.
In his opinion, the cultural classics were the treasures of human culture. What was recorded on the bamboo slips were all lost things. There was no such complete copy in the world.
Moreover, these bamboo slips were well preserved.
No matter what, he had to take these things out and give them to the country!
“Give me your backpack.”
Fang Qiu waved to He Gaoming and said, “Pack up all these bamboo slips and take them out.”
He Gaoming didn’t question or ask.
He immediately did as Fang Qiu said.
After putting away the bamboo slips, Fang Qiu used the tripod to sense and found that there seemed to be something halfway up the mountain not far from them.
“Let’s move on.”
Fang Qiu led everyone to continue to explore.
After crossing two mountains, they came to the middle of the mountain where he sensed something.
“There’s something strange with the Qi of Heaven and Earth here.”
He walked to this place and found a field. Although it was not big, it was indeed a field.
But there was nothing planted in the field.
“Let’s work separately and search around. If there is anything unusual, report to me immediately!” Fang Qiu said.
“Okay.”
Everyone nodded in response and immediately dispersed to this area to look for things.
Just as everyone scattered to search, Fang Qiu secretly drove his Divine Consciousness to go deep into the ground quickly.
The tiny tripod reminded him that there was something hidden here. Since it wasn’t here on the surface, it should be underground.
With a stir of his mind, he tried to control his Divine Consciousness to go deeper quickly.
He found it was Breathing Earth in the field. Then he also found the Jade Marrow in the Breathing Earth. Although it was not much, it did exist.
“Could it be that a mysterious jade full of the Qi of Heaven and Earth can grow in the Breathing Earth?”
Fang Qiu suddenly came up with the idea.
Even he himself was shocked by this idea!
If that were the case, wouldn’t that mean the mysterious jade would continue to flow?
