Ni Qingshui and Lin Chen looked at each other and saw in each other's eyes... It was not a good place to stay for a long time.
Ni Qingshui took the lead and bowed deeply to Ling Xuzi.
"Elder... Elder, Senior Brother Ye, we still have some things to do in our alchemy room, so... I won't disturb you."
Lin Chen also quickly followed suit and bowed, his head lowered.
"Disciple retires."
The two of them moved quickly, almost walking out of the cave with the same hand and feet.
Ye Feng looked at them as if they wanted to put on their wings and fly away, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
He turned to Ling Xuzi and his expression returned to calm.
"Master, what else do you know about the forbidden area?"
Ling Xuzi pondered for a moment, then picked up the tea cup and took another sip.
"There are no records within the sect regarding the forbidden area."
"I only know that the place has existed since the sect was founded, and that the ancestors of the past generations have reinforced it. Seal."
"What exactly is inside, why the demonic energy suddenly appeared, and why the formation became loose, etc..."
Ling Xuzi shook his head.
"No one knows."
"Perhaps we can only bring back some clues when the disciples who entered it come out."
Ye Feng asked again: "How many people can be teleported at one time with the teleportation array? Is there a time limit?"
Ling Xuzi put down his tea cup.
"The teleportation array can only teleport one person at a time, and the interval is uncertain, which is very unstable."
"As for time, the sect has no limit, as long as it can come out alive and bring back useful information."
Ye Feng nodded, thinking about it.
Ling Xuzi stood up, "Okay, I've said all that needs to be said."
He walked to the exit of the cave, looked back at Ye Feng, and then glanced at the smell of alcohol that still remained in the cave despite having been cleaned up.
"The sect master gave you this cave to allow you to practice well. Don't live up to this abundant spiritual energy." He paused, "Not to mention, always thinking of turning this place into a wine cellar!"
After saying that, Ling Xuzi's figure flashed and disappeared from the entrance of the cave.
Bai Shun'an quickly raised his hands to Ye Feng and followed him out quickly.
Ye Feng was the only one left in the cave.
Forbidden areas, demonic energy, unstable teleportation array, Su Li...
It seems that we have to go through this muddy water.
However, before that, some preparations must be made.
The next day, it was dawn.
Ye Feng left the cave and walked towards the Zongmen Zongwu Hall.
All the inner and outer disciples he met along the way respectfully saluted him and said hello.
"Good morning, Senior Brother Ye!"
"I have met Senior Brother Ye!"
Ye Feng's reputation in Tianji Sect is now at its peak.
After a great competition with the Wanjian Sect, he counterattacked and became a core disciple in one fell swoop, moving into the mountain cave with the most spiritual energy.
These deeds have already spread throughout the entire sect and have become the envy and worship of countless outer sect disciples and even inner sect disciples.
Ye Feng had an easy-going smile on his face and nodded to every disciple who greeted him, without any airs of being a core disciple.
This made the disciples who were a little nervous at first feel even more flattered, and looked at Ye Feng with even more admiration.
Soon, Ye Feng arrived at the Zongwu Hall.
People were coming and going in the hall, and many disciples were queuing up to receive or deliver tasks.
Seeing Ye Feng come in, the originally noisy hall suddenly became much quieter.
Everyone’s eyes fell on Ye Feng.
Surprise, curiosity, envy, awe...all kinds of emotions are intertwined.
Ye Feng walked straight to the area where the mission was released.
On the mission jade, there are a dazzling array of mission entries in various colors.
And at the top of all the tasks, there is a task emitting a faint purple light.
Purple mission: Exploring the changes in the sect’s forbidden area, which requires cultivation during the foundation building period.
The eyes of the entire Zongwu Hall disciples were attracted by the purple light, and then fell on Ye Feng who was walking towards the jade bi.
He... what is he going to do?
Could it be...
Amidst the shocked eyes of everyone, Ye Feng stretched out his hand and lightly tapped the purple task.
A flash of light flashed, the light of the purple task entry dimmed slightly, and three small words "Accepted" appeared behind it.
The entire hall was silent.
Everyone was stunned by Ye Feng's crisp movements.
That is a purple mission!
The highest level mission of the sect, the degree of danger can be imagined.
Even the proud daughter of Heaven like Senior Sister Su Li and the inner disciples of the ninth floor of the Foundation were trapped in it and have not returned yet.
Ye Feng ignored the gasps and discussions around him, turned around and walked towards the deacon disciple responsible for the registration task.
The deacon disciple quickly stood up and bowed respectfully to Ye Feng.
"Senior Brother Ye, are you sure you want to take on this mission?"
Ye Feng handed over his identity jade tag with a smile on his face.
"What else? Am I here to see the scenery?"
The deacon disciple took the jade token, injected spiritual power, and confirmed the identity of Ye Feng's core disciple, his hands trembling slightly.
Core disciples take on the purple mission, this is a big deal!
He quickly wrote it down on the jade slip, his attitude becoming more and more respectful.
"Senior Brother Ye is indeed extraordinary and courageous!"
He added while registering.
"The sect has an order that the contribution points of any core disciple who accepts a task will be doubled, and there is no time limit for the task."
"Senior brother, be sure to...be careful when you go here!"
Ye Feng took back the jade token and nodded.
"Thank you for reminding me."
After saying that, he turned around and left the General Affairs Hall under the complicated gazes of everyone.
It wasn't until Ye Feng's figure disappeared at the entrance of the hall that the silence in the hall was broken, and buzzing discussions broke out in an instant.
"What do you know! Is Senior Brother Ye an ordinary person?"
"Oh, I hope Senior Brother Ye can return safely..."
...
After Ye Feng left the Zongwu Hall, he flew directly to the depths of the sect with his sword, to the area that was classified as a forbidden area.
The closer to the forbidden area, the spiritual energy in the air seems to become thinner, replaced by a vague sense of depression.
The light in the sky seemed to have dimmed a bit, and the surrounding mountains and forests were silent, even the chirping of birds and insects had disappeared.
An invisible heaviness enveloped this area.
Ye Feng restrained his breath and slowly landed on a platform outside the forbidden area.
In the center of the platform, there stands a simple stone formation.
Mysterious runes are engraved around the formation, which is emitting a weak but unstable light.
On the edge of the formation, there are two core disciples of the sect.
Their cultivation levels are all at the Golden Core stage!
This is the sect disciple guarding the teleportation array.
Seeing Ye Feng fall, one of the golden elixir monks with a stern face glanced at him like lightning.
"Who is coming? Forbidden land, retreat quickly!"
The voice was cold, with unquestionable majesty.
Ye Feng bowed his hands in a salute, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Disciple Ye Feng is here to perform a sect mission and explore the forbidden area."
As he spoke, he showed his core disciple jade badge and the purple mission certificate he had just received.
When the golden elixir monk saw the jade plaque and the mission certificate, his eyes moved slightly, and his cold expression softened a little.
Another Jindan monk who had been closing his eyes to rest his mind also opened his eyes and looked at Ye Feng a few times.
"Core disciple Ye Feng?"
"Are you the boy who won the competition?"
Ye Feng smiled slightly.
"Just a fluke."
