Mortal Cultivation: Portable Space

#1764 - Arrival at the ruins

The others laughed upon hearing this, clearly thinking the same thing.

"Hehe, but let me say the ugly things first. Don't forget what you promised me, or don't blame me for being unsympathetic!"

The scholar smiled gently, but then changed the subject, his eyes gleaming.

These words made the others exchange glances, but soon, Lai Changyi said solemnly:

"Fellow Daoist Yue, please rest assured, how could we be untrustworthy people? The first three treasures must belong to you."

"Yes, we would all be taking advantage of you. Without you, we wouldn't even be able to get in,"

The old woman echoed.

"Very good, then let's go."

The scholar nodded in satisfaction, then stood up and led the way forward.

The others quickly followed suit.

Soon, the group disappeared into the jungle again.

............

Half an hour later...

"Phew... finally up here. Brother Wu is really amazing, the second half of the journey was much faster than before."

As soon as Xiahou Jian walked out of the illusion, he quickly ran forward for a distance until he passed through the dense forest and stood on a wide gravel road, then he felt relieved, breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned to smile at Wu Fan.

At this time, the others quickly followed, looking at the scene ahead.

However, after seeing it, strange expressions appeared on their faces.

"Hehe, being able to speed up is also due to gaining more and more experience. I just didn't expect there to be so many buildings here, which surprised me."

Wu Fan replied simply, then grinned.

In his sight, the dirt road in front of him stretched straight ahead, he didn't know how far. On both sides of the street, as far as the eye could see, were sparse, simple houses, some with earth and stone structures, and some simply built with wood. It looked like a dilapidated village.

Moreover, these buildings faced different directions and were not arranged in order, but seemed to be built randomly, giving people the feeling of temporary residences, but there were a large number of them. Initial estimates suggested that there were at least hundreds of them nearby, all built along crisscrossing streets.

Note that this was only what could be seen. As for the distance, it was not clear, but based on the area of ​​this hilltop, which was dozens of miles in radius, there were at least thousands of such houses.

Wu Fan wanted to release his divine sense to take a look, but found that there was a god-forbidden formation restriction here. Even with his cultivation, he could only see a hundred feet away, which was no different from looking with his eyes.

"There's nothing strange about this. It's obvious that this is a temporary base for a sect. The houses nearby are all residences built by the sect's disciples."

Huangfu Sheng guessed the general idea after seeing the broken dirt road and the dilapidated houses under his feet. After all, a true sect's base would not be so casual. At the very least, they would dig out some stones to pave the streets. Combining this with some historical records, the truth became clear.

Because Dragonfall Valley was originally an ancient battlefield in ancient times.

"Well, that should be the case. However, judging from the area of ​​this ruins, this sect should not be small. I just don't know where to find the treasure vault? Also, the things we discussed before..."

Now that they had arrived here, Wu Fan naturally guessed the real situation. As for being surprised before, it was because he only vaguely saw a few houses at the foot of the mountain. Now, seeing this scene, he felt a great impact.

But this was not what he really cared about. What bothered him the most was that it was agreed that he would get a share of the treasure first, but searching for the treasure vault in such a large area, if everyone did not search separately, he didn't know how long it would take. This was different from what he thought at the foot of the mountain. Therefore, Wu Fan hesitated for a moment, then frowned and said half a sentence to the others.

"This...! Alas! Such a large place, who knows where it is? Moreover, since it is a treasure vault, this sect will definitely hide it well. It may not be easy for us to find it. How about we...!"

Wu Fan's words made the faces of the others flash with embarrassment. They were all experienced people and naturally knew what Wu Fan was thinking. For a time, they looked at each other. In the end, Xiahou Jian said euphemistically.

Although he didn't finish his words, the meaning was already obvious, which was to act separately.

But in this case, it meant that whoever found something would own it, and Wu Fan would no longer have any chance to take advantage of it, and the previous agreement would be invalid.

But you should know that the treasure vault of this sect must contain many precious strategic materials. Whoever can find it first will make a fortune, but in this case, Wu Fan will suffer.

The others grinned and turned their heads to the side without speaking.

Gong Yugan wanted to say something, but after seeing such a large ruins, he swallowed the words back.

"It seems that Brother Xiahou wants to act separately. Okay, then let's listen to you. This will indeed save some time. But I'll put my words here first. If anyone finds the treasure vault first, they must notify everyone, and then we will divide the things inside equally. I wonder if you all agree?"

Wu Fan raised his eyebrows, glanced at Xiahou Jian, and said with a solemn expression.

"Okay, I agree!"

Soon, Gong Yugan nodded and agreed.

"This..., alright!"

"Then we'll do as Fellow Daoist Wu says!"

"I don't object either!"

Huangfu Sheng, Madam Yan, and Xiahou Jian hesitated for a moment, then agreed one after another.

It was just that no one knew if these people really thought so.

But Wu Fan was not worried. The treasure vault was not an ordinary place and must have formation restrictions for protection. Except for Gong Yugan, the others did not know the formation path, so it would not be easy to break it. Even if they chose to break the formation by force, the commotion would not be small and Wu Fan would still be able to sense it. After all, this place was only dozens of miles in radius, so he would just rush over when the time came.

As for Gong Yugan, he could quickly break the formation, but Wu Fan believed that this friend would definitely not let him suffer.

"Okay, then it's decided. Everyone, let's split up!"

Wu Fan nodded and didn't waste any words. He was about to leave, but at this moment, a voice came out, causing him to pause.

"Oh, right, Fellow Daoist Wu, there won't be any more illusion formations here, right? Didn't you say that the formation eye of that illusion formation was on the top of the mountain? Should we find the formation eye first and destroy it?"

These words were said by Madam Yan. It could be seen that this woman was worried about being trapped in the illusion again later, because only Wu Fan could break the formation here.

If they were trapped inside and Wu Fan ignored them, then the treasures here would all belong to Wu Fan alone.

Hearing this, the others also felt a surge of anxiety and quickly turned their heads to look.
