Chapter 181: Clues about the Bronze Coffin

"Senior Sister, having cultivation without strength is not enough. If you encounter danger, you don't even have the ability to protect yourself."
After helping bury the six deceased senior cultivators, Yang Fan used the excuse of taking Cattle Gu Yuyu for training to leave again.
Haing Qingshan needs healing, and the big monkey didn't suspect it. He pestered Xiong Sanwan to tell him the experiences during the past few months.
Yang Fan manipulated the flying sword and flew at full speed, heading straight to the location of the spiritual energy tide.
On the way, they encountered many suitable monsters for battles but didn't stop. Niu Guyu couldn't understand and asked, "Xiaofan, where are we going?"
"I'm taking you to a good place."
"What is your current cultivation level?"
"I have completed my foundation establishment and after finishing your matters, I plan to go into seclusion for a while to adjust my state and then break through. I have been here for so long and I don't know what the outside world is like."
The spring of spiritual veins is located approximately a million meters away, right at the center of the entire secret realm. The spiritual energy overflowing from the spring spreads outwards, nourishing and nurturing the Feihe Secret Realm.
Yang Fan speculated that it might be the only spiritual vein in the secret realm.
The next morning, the two of them squeezed through the narrow entrance and descended to the location of the mineral vein.
Although Yang Fan had already mentioned it on the way, Niugu Yu couldn't help but widen his eyes in amazement when he saw it with his own eyes, "Are these all spirit stones?!"
"Yes, I don't know how far it goes on the other side, but from what I can see, there are over 500,000 pieces. Even if the entire cultivation world of Blue Star were to use it, it could cultivate a large number of Foundation Establishment cultivators, and even produce quite a few Golden Core and Nascent Soul cultivators."
Yang Fan smiled and said, "This may be considered another way to revive the spiritual energy. The Blue Star cultivation world will definitely usher in a golden period."
Moreover, his intuition became even stronger. The emergence of the Feihe Secret Realm is likely the arrival of true spiritual energy revival.
"Let's go, ahead..."
A few minutes later, the two arrived at the source of the spiritual vein, where the tide of spiritual energy spewed out in concentric vortexes, entering the surrounding cave walls. The radiance was dazzling, making one's eyes dazzled.
However, it has become much thinner compared to the beginning.
"Sister-in-law, go in and enter the vortex above. You can cultivate your techniques there. Remember to follow the method I told you: open the small extraordinary vessel first, and then open the twelve large vessels."
The intensity and circulation speed of the Spiritual Qi flow have both decreased. Yang Fan is unsure if Niu Guyu can open up 999 small orifices before the Spiritual Qi tide completely stops.
But she is currently at the third level of the Foundation Establishment stage, with only twelve major meridians opened. She can open more minor meridians first, which will allow her to open up more meridians during the Foundation Establishment period.
"You can continue to cultivate slowly, I will go and mine some spirit stones."
After Niuguyu closed his eyes and crossed his legs, Yang Fan took out the Qinggang dagger and began to dig spiritual stones from the cave wall.
For a full eight days, Yang Fan transformed into a miner and dug out over a thousand kilometers from the spiritual eye position, filling more than thirty storage rings with as many as six hundred thousand top-grade spiritual stones.
People are all numb.
Fortunately, there is cultivation to support, otherwise they would have collapsed a long time ago.
"Sister-in-law should almost be done."
Yang Fan looked ahead and didn't know how far the spiritual stone mine was. He decided to leave a suspense and come back to mine later.
However, coming down from the collapsed sinkhole and turning right to here, the spirit stones on the cave wall are obviously not as dense, so there should not be many.
However, just over three thousand meters away from him, the spiritual stream converges into a small pool, where an old man with white hair sits cross-legged in the water, meditating and cultivating.
The source of spiritual energy, the tide of aura above the pool has disappeared, and Niu Guyu is in the pool, with the clear water not reaching her snow-white neck.
Sensing the movement, Niu Guyu opens her bright eyes and says, "Xiaofan, you're back!"
"Well, how is it?" Yang Fan noticed that her cultivation had reached the Foundation Establishment stage.
"I opened a total of eight hundred and twenty-six acupoints, and then the spiritual vortex disappeared. It didn't have much effect when I went down to the pool."
The sound of splashing, Niu Guyu stood up and got on the shore, saying, "The water here is as comfortable as a hot spring."
Her wet body was tightly pressed against her clothes, revealing her graceful figure, which made Yang Fan feel envious and his gaze wandered.
"Over 800 is enough." Compared to ordinary people, twelve major acupoints and 365 minor acupoints are a world of difference.
Yang Fan believed that even without using special magical techniques, relying solely on the condensed attacks from his internal energy, Niu Guyu would still be able to dominate the world.
"Let's go, I'll take you to practice your skills."
"Sure," Li Ke said.
Niu Guyu saw that Yang Fan's eyes were avoiding his gaze, feeling a bit confused. He lowered his head and glanced down, instantly realizing the situation. He quickly used his martial arts to dry his clothes, and his round face turned slightly red. Even his heartbeat couldn't help but speed up.
At this moment, her mind uncontrollably wanted to rush up and hug Yang Fan.
Suppressing the inner desires for too long, in such a deserted underground cave, isn't this the perfect opportunity?
However, in the end, she cannot ignore her reputation.
Of course, there is another important reason, Shen Xintong.
Although it was said by Yang Jianye, the tour guide, she herself is willing and looking forward to it, but she still cannot bring herself to hook up with another man behind someone's back.
Unless... Yang Fan takes the initiative.
"Fool..."
Niu Guyu laughed in her heart and started complaining about Yang Fan. He just doesn't get it.
Yang Fan glanced at her and asked, "What are you thinking?"
"Oh, it's nothing. How many spirit stones did you dig up?"
"600,000!"
"A lot. We have so many spirit stones that old second master also sent medicinal resources. We can't use them all."
The two returned to the ground, and Yang Fan took Niu Guyu to experience and train with the monster beasts.
As expected, despite her unskilled movements and occasional nervousness, Niu Guyu was able to suppress her cultivation to the same level as the demonic beast. However, her solid and strong Qi allowed her to stand invincible.
Half a month later, Niu Guyu had completely adapted to battle and was considered a qualified cultivator in Yang Fan's eyes.
"Xiao Fan, how was it?"
After killing a sixth-level Foundation Building stage Swordtooth Tiger, Niu Guyu's clothes remained clean and he flew joyfully to Yang Fan's side.
"Not bad, we've finished our training. Let's go back, adjust our state, and prepare for the challenge!"
"Halfway through the journey, Yang Fan suddenly felt a movement in his heart and stopped."
"What's wrong, Xiao Fan?"
"The bell rang!"
Yang Fan looked around and headed towards a big tree in the distance, "Let's take a break for now!"
"Did Second Grandpa come out of seclusion?" Niu Guyu was also very excited, "Wasn't he supposed to close up for one or two years?"
"Probably not."
Yang Fan took out the Yang Bell from the storage ring, condensed a barrier around him, and then activated it with a finger technique.
"Young master!"
An image appeared in his sea of consciousness, with a shiny bald head and a smiling face. It was the Ghost Monk Ye Bugui, standing in a pavilion with a chessboard in front of him.
"I, the humble subordinate, have not returned home at night. I have seen the young master and ask for his forgiveness for contacting him after such a long time."
"He actually wanted to contact Yang Fan a long time ago, but there was nothing important. He thought that the first meeting with the young master in the mortal realm was crucial. At the very least, he should bring some good news as a gift. In addition, Yang Jianye reminded him to avoid using the Yin-Yang Bell unless necessary, so that's why he delayed for such a long time."
"Hello, what's happening in the underworld?" Yang Fan knew him. Grandfather had mentioned some information about this fake monk who frequented brothels.
Nightfall shaved his bald head and respectfully bowed, saying with a smile, "Everything is going smoothly in the underworld. Our Lord is currently in seclusion, so please rest assured, Young Master. I contacted you to deliver another important message."
After a moment's pause, Ye Bugui continued, "My lord had always instructed me to find someone to study a formation related to the bronze coffin, and now it's mostly confirmed."
Shen Xintong took a panoramic photo of the underground palace with her phone and showed it to Yang Jianye's dharma body. She then proceeded to investigate and research with the help of others after she returned.
"Oh?"
Yang Fan's heart moved, guessing what kind of extraordinary monster the bronze coffin in the underground palace suppressed, "Is it a sealing formation?"
Ye Bugui nodded, "It does have a sealing effect, but the main function of this formation is teleportation, and it's a super huge teleportation formation. We can call it a portal. According to our speculation, the distance it can teleport from the desolate realm to the underworld, or even directly to the immortal realm."
Yang Fan was stunned. Transfer array? Transfer to the immortal realm?
Yang Fan didn't know how far apart the Underworld and the immortal realm were, but at the very least, it had crossed realms. The distance between the barren land and the underworld was billions of miles, far greater than tens of thousands of blue stars.
Night doesn't return: "The eye of the formation is the bronze coffin, and the stone door behind the eighteen statues also serves as a teleportation function, a gateway channel to different destinations."
Yang Fan bit his lip, various thoughts and speculations emerged in his mind, "Has the method of activating the formation also been studied?"
"Just need to move eighteen statues to fixed positions at the same time, what do you think, young master..."
As he spoke, Ye Bugui wiped his bald head, fiddled with the chessboard in front of him, and moved the pieces to correspond to the statues, creating a strange pattern. "It should be like this, but there are limitations based on cultivation. At least a perfect foundation building stage is required, and it is uncertain whether those statues will come to life or not for now."
Yang Fan was taken aback, "Come back to life? What do you mean?"
"We speculate that those statues may still have a guarding function, similar to protecting puppets. Activating the formation attracts attacks, and if the strength is insufficient, it will automatically shut down."
Yang Fan nodded and felt it was highly possible, just like the nine levels of barriers in the secret realm, he asked again, "Isn't there also a sealing effect? Is there a possibility that some peerless demon is sealed inside the coffin?"
"This... "Yue Bugui looked strange and touched his bald head. He said, "It shouldn't be. The bronze coffin is located at the center of the formation, functioning as a spiritual gathering point. We all believe that it should contain a large amount of aura to maintain the formation. It doesn't seem like it's suppressing demons...If it's really suppressing a demon, then it would require the presence of such a powerful existence that would need eighteen emperors to guard it."
"The eighteen emperors? Those statues?"
"Yes, it's those eighteen statues. We have found the origins of three of them, which are legendary ancient emperors: the Blue Dragon statue, the Scholar statue, and a giant ape statue with three heads and six arms..."
After listening to the introduction, Yang Fan continued to ask, "What about the old man riding a cow?"
"We haven't found the source of this one yet, but these three are all emperors, so we can assume that the others are also formidable beings at the emperor level..."
After talking for over half an hour, Yang Fan grasped the situation and smiled, "Okay, I got it. Thank you, General Ye."
"Just call me Monk, Young Master. If you have any orders, feel free to contact me. I will do my best and will not hesitate to die."
    He should take advantage of the Lord's seclusion to establish a good relationship with the Young Master. In the future, they may even meet in person if fate permits.
    "Alright! Let's do that for now."
    After ending the call, Yang Fan frowned and fell into deep thought.
