Junior sister slandered me, the Drunken Swordsman, I cut through the gate of heaven with one sword

Ye Qian'an handed the scroll to the village chief Lin, but because the characters were from ancient times, he couldn't understand them at all and could only demote him to the village chief of Dashi Village.

The village chief took the scroll, a solemn look flashed in his eyes, his fingers moved slowly along the words, his lips moved slightly, as if he was deciphering an ancient secret language.

As the village chief explained, his face became paler and beads of sweat gradually appeared on his forehead.

"Immortal, this... this contains a terrible curse." The village chief said in a trembling voice.

Ye Qian'an frowned, stepped forward and asked, "Curse? What curse?"

The village chief took a deep breath and said slowly: "This rune is a sealing spell that seals an ancient monster. Once the rune is touched, the monster's aura will be leaked. Those monsters are affected by the monster's aura and will go crazy and attack our village.

Moreover, as time goes by, the power of the monster will gradually break through the seal, and by then, the entire Luoshen Gorge and even wider areas will be plunged into disaster."

Ye Qian'an's eyes flashed. If what the village chief said was true, then what happened before made sense. After all, it was only after he took down these runes that the violent beasts suddenly appeared here.

"Is there any way to resolve this?"

The village chief shook his head and sighed, "The scroll did not mention how to remove it. It only said that the seal was done by an ancient powerful being. I thought it could suppress the monster forever, but I didn't expect..."

Ye Qian'an narrowed his eyes. It seemed that only by returning to the inner world of Luoshen Gorge could he find the source of the matter.

However, relying on his own strength, he is naturally not afraid of that group of guys, but the so-called seal is very likely related to the curse of Luoshen Gorge.

The village chief also decided to follow Ye Qian'an to find out what was going on. With himself as an interpreter, he might be able to find the hidden secrets.

Ye Qian'an did not refuse, and then set up a barrier formation around Dashi Village to prevent any monsters from invading the area.

Returning to the cave in the inner world again, the mysterious atmosphere became stronger and stronger, and the runes on the altar flashed with strange light.

Ye Qian'an approached the altar cautiously, trying to find a way to crack the runes, while the village chief looked around for other clues he had missed.

Suddenly, Ye Qian'an discovered that there was a subtle pattern on the altar that was similar to a mark on the scroll. He looked closer and found that it was a star-like pattern surrounded by some fine lines.

Ye Qian'an reached out and touched it. A powerful force came and some blurry images flashed through his mind.

In the scene, the ancient powers joined forces to perform the sealing technique and trapped the monster here.

The key to the seal seems to be to find five spirit beads that correspond to the star patterns and place them in the five corners of the altar to re-strengthen the seal.

Ye Qian'an opened his eyes and told the village chief what he had seen.

The village chief thought for a moment and said, "My Immortal, I have seen records about the Spirit Pearl in the ancient books of the village. It is said that the Spirit Pearl is hidden in five secret places in Luoshen Gorge, and each place is guarded by a powerful monster."

Ye Qian'an's expression moved slightly, and his right foot stepped lightly on the ground. Circles of energy ripples spread out in all directions, perfectly enveloping the entire Luoshen Gorge.

For safety reasons, he asked the village chief to return to Dashi Village, and he went to look for the spiritual pearl that the village chief had mentioned. Ye Qian'an headed towards a place called "Misty Forest", which was filled with fog all year round and was said to be full of unknown dangers.

However, after flying tens of thousands of kilometers, Ye Qian'an did not see any signs of human activity. Only then did he realize that he had never left Luoshen Gorge from the beginning to the end.

Originally, I thought that Luoshen Gorge was only a thousand miles long, so why had no cultivators ever come here? It turned out that this was a large-scale formation, and anyone who entered here would not be able to leave safely.

Either you stay here forever, or find the spirit bead, which is the location of the array's center, otherwise you can never leave safely.

Even Ye Qian'an, who was at the Golden Immortal level, was unable to break the formation, which was enough to show how terrifyingly powerful the person who set up the formation was.

As soon as he stepped into the forest, Ye Qian'an felt a strong sense of oppression. It was obvious that the monster guarding the spirit pearl had noticed his arrival.

Ye Qian'an walked forward vigilantly. Suddenly, a huge black panther jumped out from the fog, emitting a black light from its body and with fierce eyes.

Ye Qi'an dodged the black panther's attack and gathered his spiritual power to counterattack the black panther. The black panther moved swiftly and shot towards Ye Qi'an's position again.

"roll."

Ye Qian'an opened his lips slightly, and the cold energy suddenly hit the black panther's body, and the latter died almost instantly upon contact.

"This formation is indeed strange. Although there are no monsters that threaten the Golden Immortal, it gives me a feeling of confusion."

Ye Qian'an walked forward, and every time his footsteps landed, ripples would appear in the void. When the ripples dissipated, the figure would have already appeared thousands of feet away, which was extremely mysterious.

The monsters on both sides turned into ashes and disappeared without a trace the moment they came into contact with the ripples.

At this moment, Ye Qian'an was a little curious. Why would the strong man who set up the formation choose to trap only Dashi Village? Apart from being stronger than ordinary people, Dashi Village posed almost no threat.

Could it be that Dashi Village has been hiding its shortcomings from the beginning to the end?
Or is there some secret hidden?
Ye Qian'an's expression changed slightly, and he decided to break the formation here first and then go find the village chief to ask him clearly. He must be hiding something, otherwise those monsters and ghosts would never attack the people of Dashi Village like crazy.

With his understanding of the formation, Ye Qian'an quickly found the center of the formation. It was a mountain emitting azure light. Above the mountain was a palm-sized spirit bead floating, and right below the spirit bead lay a ferocious beast whose cultivation had reached the peak of a wandering immortal.

"Is this the spiritual pearl that the village chief mentioned?"

It is said that only by gathering five spirit beads can the barrier of this place be completely broken. Even if it is not for Dashi Village, Ye Qian'an must break the formation before leaving this place.

As he moved his fingers, red crystal light flashed like thunder and shot towards the ferocious beast lying on top. Almost in an instant, the ferocious beast was turned into ashes and died on the spot.

According to Ye Qian'an's search, he soon found four spirit beads in the four directions of east, west, south and north, and the last remaining one was deep underground in Dashi Village.

"He is really cunning. He actually used Dashi Village as a price to open the formation and used the souls of the people in Dashi Village to maintain it. What a good trick." (End of this chapter)
