Chapter 1269: The True Cave of the Spirit Emperor
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Flower Fairy, Xianzhi Qin, and Linger Yao were also amazed since they all hailed from Huaxia and had been to Tai Mountain before.
It was truly amazing that a picture of Tai Mountain was engraved on the coffin.
It was unthinkable that this coffin and Tai mountain, two seemingly unrelated things, were linked.
“Brother Li, why do you think there is a pattern of Tai Mountain on the surface of the coffin?” Flower Fairy pointed her slim finger at the black coffin and asked.
After a moment’s consideration, Qingfeng Li said, “If I’m right, the true cave of the Spirit Emperor is concealed in the picture of Tai Mountain.”
Then he touched the picture on the coffin.
His fingers traced from the top of the mountain to the bottom.
And at the lowest right corner, Qingfeng Li found a bulge.
This spot was higher than the other parts of the coffin, and it was shaped like a tombstone.
Qingfeng Li had seen a tombstone at the foot of Tai Mountain when he toured the mountain. Made with meteorite, the tombstone was intact after standing there for a thousand years.
At that time, Qingfeng Li already knew that the tombstone was not an ordinary tombstone but was made by some self-cultivator.
Qingfeng Li put his hand on the coffin and moved to the spot of the tombstone.
The pattern of the tombstone in the picture was very small, just a little bigger than a needle point; it would be unnoticeable if one wasn’t looking closely.
Among the group of people here, only Qingfeng Li found the spot.
He channeled his vital essence and directed it along the meridian to his right forefinger. His forefinger pressed hard at the spot and send vital essence into the pattern of tombstone.
Kacha!
With a sound, the coffin floated up before everyone’s stunned eyes.
Yeah, the coffin indeed floated up and hovered above their heads.
On the ground below the coffin, a round cave opening appeared. While the coffin was black, the inside of the cave opening was covered with a white thin film.
Qingfeng Li knew that the thin film was a protective veil and that there was a protective array funder it protecting the inside of the cave.
Swoosh!
From the white thin film shot out a beam of white light. The white light beam contained such strong suction force that Qingfeng Li was suddenly sucked in there and vanished instantly.
Boom!
With a huge sound, the coffin dropped down and the opening was blocked.
“No! Brother Li was sucked in there.” Flower Fairy’s expression changed sharply.
Linger Yao, Black Puppy, and Xianzhi Qin all came to the side of the coffin anxiously and pressed on it with their palms, trying to activate it and make it float up again.
But the coffin remained where it was despite their many attempts.
And since the black coffin was a spiritual treasure of a Spirit Emperor, it was too heavy for them to lift.
Black Puppy extended its paw and pressed on the spot of the tombstone pattern because it had seen Qingfeng Li press the spot.
But the coffin showed no response at Black Puppy’s pressing, even after it transferred vital essence into the coffin.
Flower Fairy asked Black Puppy to step aside. She pressed her finger on the spot and transferred vital essence into it, but the result was the same.
Only Qingfeng Li could make the coffin float up by pressing the tombstone button.
“Puppy, what do we do?” Flower Fairy asked Black Puppy.
Among the group, Black Puppy was the most powerful and knowledgeable, so everyone turned to it under such situations.
Black Puppy wagged its tail and said, “I don’t know. We can do nothing but wait.”
Everyone sighed, eyes full of worry and anxiety. They waited silently around the coffin and were at a loss for what to do next.
Seeing them at a loss, Linger Yao walked over. As the strongest cultivator of the Demonic Dao, she knew a lot about the things that had happened during the ancient era.
More importantly, she had also read about the method of opening a similar coffin in another Spirit Emperor Tomb from one ancient book left by the Demonic Peacock Empress.
Linger Yao extended her right forefinger and, following the instruction left by Peacock Demon Empress, she channeled some vital essence into the coffin.
Under the influence of Demonic Peacock Empress’s spell, the coffin was forced to float up and reveal the white cave opening under it.
A beam of white light shot out and the strong force sucked Linger Yao inside.
“Big Brother Li will be fine since Linger Yao is in there now too.” Seeing Linger Yao enter the cave, Flower Fairy was joyous.
They knew the great power of Linger Yao and believed Qingfeng Li would be fine if she was accompanying him.
At the same time, Qingfeng Li was falling downward after being engulfed by the white light.
It was a very deep cave under the protection of an energy array formation.
Qingfeng Li didn’t know how much time passed before he finally landed in a palace.
It was a huge palace with an area of at least 10,000 square meters. Around the palace were a valley, a mountain, and a river.
Looking around, Qingfeng Li was full of curiosity and amazement.
He knew that he was not in the cave or the hole under the coffin. He had been sent out of the cave and separated from his people, arriving at this mysterious place.
The voice of Dark Night Emperor sounded in Qingfeng Li’s mind, “Qingfeng Li, this is not a real place, but a mystic realm created by the Spirit Emperor Realm master.”
“Mystic realm.” Hearing the words of Dark Night Emperor, a flash of astonishment appeared in Qingfeng Li’s eyes.
As a cultivator, Qingfeng Li naturally knew what a mystic realm represented.
Mystic realms were small spaces not continuous with Earth, which only powerful self-cultivators could create.
Qingfeng Li had read from the ancient books that self-cultivators must reach the Spirit Emperor Realm before they could create mystic realms, and then, only one out of ten-thousand Spirit Emperor Realm Masters could create them.
Out of 10,000 Spirit Emperor Realm masters, only one was able to create the mystic realm, which showed the great power and the rarity of such a dimension. And it was a wonder that Qingfeng Li encountered one.
Qingfeng Li knew that the owner of the mystic realm was the real owner of the Spirit Emperor Realm cave.
