Chapter 588: Chapter 587: Nine Palace Qiankun Furnace
"Master Gu, this, this?"
Chu Xiaoxiao’s face was filled with questions.
However, Master Gu did not offer an explanation, but simply said indifferently,
"All right, follow me."
He then took the lead and started walking.
"Miss Chu, I feel something is very wrong here. Shouldn’t we just leave?"
Ye Feng said with a tone of worry.
But Chu Xiaoxiao had already been spellbound.
She had no regard for anything else.
"No, I can’t have come all this way for nothing; it’s almost within reach. If you want to go, then go."
With that, she summoned her courage and climbed onto the snake’s body.
"Xiao Xiao, wait for me."
Scared out of his wits, Sun Heng followed suit.
"Forget it, you guys go ahead. I’m not going. My mission is already complete; I need to return and report."
Xue Ying, a veteran assassin seasoned by many battles, possessed an innate sense of danger.
Though she did not understand the full situation, she had already sensed the whiff of death.
She was well aware that such matters were no longer within the reach of mere mortals like herself.
Zhang Xiaoshan had been eaten by the python; there was no need for her to risk her own life any further.
She turned and left directly.
Ye Feng stood still, hesitating for a moment.
"Fine, ’send the Buddha to the west.’"
On one hand, he wanted to take revenge on his employer, Chu Xiaoxiao, and on the other, he was somewhat curious.
Master Gu, Chu Xiaoxiao, Sun Heng, Ye Feng.
The party of four soon arrived at the plaza Zhang Xiaoshan had seen before.
"God, this place, there’s actually a complex of buildings here."
Chu Xiaoxiao was quite astonished.
Ye Feng also felt very shaken.
"With Yanxia’s history of five thousand years, perhaps this primeval forest, isolated from the world, may also have housed some civilization hundreds, if not thousands, of years ago."
"Shennong Immortal Medical Sect, the name carries some mythological connotations."
The few of them looked up at the huge plaque in front of them, their expressions filled with amazement.
Behind the plaque, the inscription below the giant statue read,
"Shennong Ancestor" in four large characters.
"Shennong tasting a hundred herbs?"
"Could it be that this place is related to the legendary Shennong?"
Legends of Shennong have always circulated throughout Yanxia.
It is said that in ancient times, when humanity had just emerged, and grains were not yet distinguished, it was Shennong who spread knowledge of a hundred herbs, teaching humanity to cultivate crops and discern medicinal herbs, thereby establishing the ancient Yanxia civilization.
There are also places of worship for Shennong throughout the land.
But legends are just legends, with no way to verify them.
Could it be that there truly exists the lineage of Shennong here?
Meanwhile, Master Gu had already ascended the platform behind the sacrificial plaza.
This was where the main hall was located.
It seemed to have been through a great battle before, as the main hall had collapsed significantly.
"Master Gu, this place, it’s already in ruins. Could there still be Divine Medicine to rejoin my grandfather’s meridians?"
Chu Xiaoxiao asked uneasily.
"What’s the rush?"
Master Gu’s demeanor at this time seemed to have transformed him into a completely different person.
He paced around the main hall.
Then, he stopped in front of a huge stone-flagged brick
and tapped it with the old smoking pipe in his hand.
"This is the place."
Afterwards, he struck the ground fiercely with his fist.
"Boom."
The giant stone-flagged brick exploded on impact.
Immediately revealing a dark hole.
"What, what is this?"
The few of them were startled, but Master Gu did not speak; he simply walked in.
The remaining three could only follow.
"Oh, no wonder I searched around and found nothing; the secret was here all along."
In the shadows, concealing his own breath, Zhang Xiaoshan revealed a cunning smile.
After five or six minutes, he followed suit and went down.
...
Below was a vast Underground Palace.
There was one area filled with various books, as well as bottles and jars.
At the same time, rich Spiritual Energy was pouring forth from a tunnel below.
The group entered straight into the heart of the ground.
It was an immense open space, seemingly having excavated most of the mountain body, with stalactites hanging from the rock walls in various shapes and brilliant colors, resembling an Immortal Realm.
More importantly, upon arriving, everyone felt as if all the pores in their bodies had been opened, giving them a sense of having their marrow cleansed.
"That, what is that?"
The people’s gaze shifted towards the back of the chamber at the end of the cavern.
It was a pool.
Inside was a pool filled with green liquid that startled everyone, and even more astonishing was that above this small pond floated a four-legged copper furnace.
The copper furnace stood one meter high, with a diameter of over half a meter. It was glowing red and was engraved with various ancient runes, with a large Tai Chi symbol prominently displayed on the front, exuding an extremely majestic aura.
"It’s, it’s, it’s the Nine Palace Qiankun Furnace, haha, I’ve found it, I’ve really found it."
"Fifty years, I’ve been searching for you for fifty years."
"Finally, today I’ve actually found it."
Master Gu laughed ecstatically, dancing around on his knees with excitement.
"The Nine Palace Qiankun Furnace?"
"What, what is that thing?"
"Master Gu, this, how is this related to healing my grandfather’s meridians?"
Chu Xiaoxiao asked with extreme confusion.
Ye Feng had already sensed that something was amiss, tightly clutching the military spike in his hand, vigilantly surveying the surroundings.
"Hahaha."
Master Gu laughed wildly.
"This thing has absolutely nothing to do with curing your grandfather’s illness because I never intended to help your grandfather in the first place when I went to the Chu family."
"You, you deceived me?"
Chu Xiaoxiao was startled.
"I, my Chu family has treated you well over the years, why, why would you deceive us?"
