Chapter 254: Chapter 253: Treasure Hunt

Su Yang walked over, removed the silver needles from Chen Shao’s body, and Chen Shao immediately collapsed on the ground, limp.

For the past half hour, he had truly endured torment akin to hell itself. His entire body was unbearably itchy, yet he could not scratch it. This agony was even more intolerable than pain.

"Speak," Su Yang said.

Chen Shao took a deep breath and whispered, "I... I don’t know exactly what they plan to do. They just gave me a map and asked me to scout the mountain, saying they wanted to go there for an adventure. I... I just helped them with the arrangements, that’s all... I truly don’t know anything else..."

"Where is the map?" asked Su Yang.

Chen Shao didn’t dare to delay and quickly took out the map and handed it to Su Yang.

Su Yang took the map and glanced at it, his eyebrows slightly furrowing.

The map depicted a mountain nearby, and according to the drawing, the mountain was of a very ordinary type, with nothing special about it.

However, Su Yang had received a message while using the Soul Searching Technique on Wang Shao earlier; they had come in search of a very important treasure. Su Yang had stayed behind for this very reason.

Could something that made the Eldest Young Master of the Wang Family come in person be simple?

The map showed no particular features, but after pondering for a while, Su Yang called over Master Fang and asked him to protect everyone with the Kirin Jade and Xiao Hei while he himself set out overnight to check out the mountain.

Exiting the small town and arriving at a secluded spot, Su Yang summoned the Nine Cold Jade Sword and rode it, swiftly heading toward the mountain.

Having reached the Integration Realm, even in the pitch dark, he could see things as clearly as in daylight.

The mountain was about thirty kilometers away from the small town, located in a deserted area with no one around for twenty kilometers.

Su Yang flew above the mountain on his sword and looking down, something felt off.

The condition of the mountain matched what was drawn on the map. But the map was missing a few crucial points. It was these points that greatly changed the trend of the mountain. Not to mention, there was a cave within the mountain with an abundance of spiritual energy.

However, the geomancy of the mountain seemed to converge in the same place, which likely meant that the cave was occupied, hence the situation.

Using the Kanyu Technique, Su Yang speculated for a moment before descending from the sky, landing on the middle of the mountainside. This place was where the geomancy converged.

But instead of the grave mound Su Yang had expected, there was a flat area.

Su Yang slightly frowned; he walked around the vicinity for a couple of turns, preparing to calculate the location of the grave mound. At that moment, voices rose from the foot of the mountain.

"We’re almost there, it’s that platform’s location!"

"Are you sure it’s here?" Another voice came through, and it was Wang Shao’s voice.

Su Yang was surprised; Wang Shao and his group hadn’t left but had come back to this place quietly. It seemed the thing in the mountain must be very important.

Although Su Yang had discerned with the Soul Searching Technique that there was something important here, he hadn’t figured out exactly what it was. Unaware of the specifics, Su Yang decided not to barge in recklessly. He quietly hid himself, leaving the area for Wang Shao and his people.

Soon after, Wang Shao and the others arrived. There were a few more people compared to when seen at noon, including a man wearing a robe with a long beard. The mountain wind stirred his robe, giving him an ethereal appearance. However, his slightly sleazy small eyes made him look somewhat out of place.

After circling the area twice, the bearded man nodded and said, "Wang Shao, it should be here!"

"Then quickly find the spot!" Wang Shao exclaimed excitedly, "If we find a Superior Magical Artifact, I will definitely reward you handsomely!"

"Wang Shao, rest assured!" the bearded man immediately smiled and said, "This map is a treasure left by my ancestral master. They have always treated it like a gem and wouldn’t even let me glance at it. If it wasn’t for my master passing away recently, I still wouldn’t have access to it."

"I once asked my master what was actually in here. He told me it was a treasure beyond my wildest dreams! My master already had a Medium Quality Magical Tool, now think, aside from a Superior Magical Artifact, what else could be beyond my wildest dreams?"

Wang Shao became ecstatic, "Master Wufang is a hermit praised even by my great grandfather. He isn’t interested in wealth or power. For such a hermit, it has to be either an unparalleled secret manual or a powerful magic artifact, nothing else is attractive!"

"So, I’m guessing, there has to be at least a Superior Magical Artifact here!" the bearded man laughed, "Wang Shao, with your current power, if you can get a Superior Magical Artifact, you could probably be elevated to the Fusion Realm directly. With the Fusion Realm, you’ll be among the top ten in Pingnan Province. By then, forget about Pingnan Province, you’ll be one of the best among the young generation in the whole Huaxia!"

"Hahaha..." Wang Shao laughed proudly, "If I can get a Superior Magical Artifact, I will never let you down. You’ll live a life of glory and wealth for the rest of your days!"

"Thank you, Wang Shao!" The bearded man quickly bowed down, overwhelmed with excitement.

"Wang Shao, once you’ve advanced to the Fusion Realm, you absolutely can’t let that Su Yang off!" Another young man hastily said.

"Of course!" Wang Shao gritted his teeth, "That Su Yang made me lose all face, daring to make me apologize to him in front of everyone. I’ve kept all these accounts in mind. Once I get that Superior Magical Artifact, he’ll be the first one I go after. Even if he begs for mercy on his knees in front of me, I won’t let him go. I’ll make him understand the consequences of offending me!"

Everyone was thrilled and joyful. One of the youngsters even excitedly said, "And about that Qi’er, once we’ve dealt with Su Yang, we’ll make him obediently hand over the girl. Such a beauty doesn’t deserve to be by his side, it’s a waste!"

"That’s for sure!" Wang Shao sneered coldly, "I have my sights set on that beauty!"

Everyone looked envious; they too lusted after Qi’er.

The bearded man, holding a compass, began to locate and search around the area, starting to find the position of the grave mound.

Su Yang was hiding in the dark. In this short time, he had already calculated the location. The professional skill of this bearded man was quite average, using all these tools and still taking so long to calculate?

After about an hour, the bearded man cheered, "Found it!"

"Where?" Wang Shao was the first to rush over.

The bearded man had already stood at the edge of the platform, pointing down the cliff: "Right here!"

"What?" Wang Shao was taken aback, "Are you joking? This is a cliff!"
