The Mingying battlefield has not changed much over the years.

The two great countries of Jin and Chu have invested too much here.

Even though the attacks of monsters have become more and more intense in recent years, we have still managed to hold on.

Relying on the favorable terrain, the overall situation on the Mingying battlefield was stabilized.

All the way along the border cities of Jin State.

There is still a big difference between the border cities of Jin State and a small country like Zhou State.

There aren’t that many farmers in the border cities here.

The State of Jin was large and had no shortage of land for cultivation.

Therefore, there is no need for farmers to come to the border to farm, and the Jin court will not give them any tax exemptions.

Border cities that are more developed generally rely on buying and selling things to the warriors who pass by.

There are also some herbalists who want to take risks and make big money.

Although the territory of Jin State is vast, there are so many people collecting herbs everywhere every year.

Many extremely remote areas are visited by many herbalists.

These places are also dangerous.

Even though there are dangers, the competition is still fierce.

Under such circumstances, some herbalists turned their attention here.

Few people set foot in the wilderness.

Warriors rarely go in, let alone people who collect herbs.

The wilderness is a treasure trove that has never been mined.

You don’t have to walk to many cliffs to pick medicinal herbs like you do within the country.

Although there are monster threats in the wilderness, many medicinal herbs are easy to pick.

Monsters have a keener insight into warriors above the fifth rank.

Ordinary people like them are not sensitive.

Even the common people know this.

Even now, many places still maintain the habit of sending young warriors below the fifth rank to carry out espionage missions.

If you have better coping skills, this method is actually not bad.

Along the way, Su Chen saw the lives of the people living along the border of Jin State.

Sometimes, a country’s wealth does not mean its people are rich.

The State of Jin was considered a first-class great power in the world, but many of its people still lived a hard life.

Su Chen could only sigh that it was impossible for him to change it in one fell swoop.

Monsters are causing trouble on the border, and the Mingying battlefield is even more of a gold-eating beast.

The Jin court had many problems to solve.

Su Chen was not confident enough to think that he could change everything by controlling these things.

There are so many people in the Jin court, and not all of them are good-for-nothings or treacherous ministers.

If I take charge myself, it is possible that the people will live even worse.

Su Chen is still very self-aware and just does his own thing well.

The most important thing right now is to go to the Mingying battlefield and find out the problem with the Yuanshi Seal.

After walking along the border for about seven days, we finally arrived at the city outside the Mingying battlefield.

This place should be where most of the warriors of Jin State have been.

As long as you grow up a little and have some strength.

Most warriors will be sent to the Mingying battlefield for training.

Even if you can’t enter the central area, you will still look around from the periphery.

It is for this reason that an industrial chain was born in this peripheral city.

The information gathering industry is very prosperous in the peripheral cities of the Mingying battlefield.

The information gathering here is fundamentally different from the buying and selling of information in Zhou State.

When Zhou State buys and sells information, it wants information that is extremely time-sensitive.

What happened recently and what happened there.

This kind of news, which just happened recently, can be bought in Zhou State.

To gather information in these peripheral cities of the Mingying battlefield, we just need to ask some questions.

For example, who is in a certain sect, what is his strength, what his life is like, and how strong he is.

How strong a force is, how deep its foundation is.

As for things involving timeliness, there is basically no hope and you can’t ask about them here.

Of course, you can also sell information.

Many young people of average ability would come here to sell out some information about their own sects.

The sect leader has a conflict with someone, and their sect is at odds with some other force, so the relationship is not good.

As time goes by, this industry is getting bigger and bigger.

After Su Chen arrived here, he went to inquire about the situation immediately.

News about Sang Moyuan and his identity.

Wulan Villa has been plagued by troubles in the past year or two and has been caught in the whirlpool of public opinion.

Therefore, a lot of information related to them has been collected on the Mingying battlefield.

It’s hot news.

There are many people asking about it, but there are even more people who can sell the relevant information.

All in all, the price isn’t actually that high.

Sang Moyuan’s identity was also revealed to Su Chen at this moment.

Sang Moyuan is Qiu Ruoxue’s only son, and Qiu Ruoxue is Qiu Ruoshuang’s eldest sister.

In other words, Sang Moyuan is Qiu Ruoshuang’s nephew.
My previous guess has come true at this moment.

But Su Chen didn’t want it to come true at all.

The hatred between himself, Sang Moyuan and Wulan Villa is already quite deep.

Even if Qiu Ruoshuang did not approve of her nephew’s words and deeds, he was still Qiu Ruoshuang’s nephew and a relative after all.

She is caught in the middle and will definitely not feel good.

After asking this question, Su Chen did not ask any other questions.

The boy who was selling the information kept asking questions, saying that he could give a discount or something.

But for Su Chen, he just wanted to find out this piece of news.

After a short rest and preparation in the restaurant, Su Chen began to plan to go to the Mingying battlefield.

There are warriors stationed on the south side of the Mingying battlefield, including the southeast and southwest.

Su Chen didn’t want to attract attention, so after thinking about it, he decided to go through the east.

The area over there is inhabited by monsters, and the danger level is increasing rapidly.

But it’s not a big problem for Su Chen.

I have a keen insight into monsters. When they see me, I have already seen them.

After thinking it through, Su Chen started to move forward.

It is noon now, the time when monsters are least active.

Most monsters prefer to appear at night, when the sky is brightest.

It is also most beneficial to people’s eyesight.

Those celestial demons are smart and will of course choose other times to carry out their activities.

Enter the Mingying battlefield from east to west.

Entering from this position, you will be directly in the low-lying area.

Thinking back, it was here that I obtained the treasure left by the Immortal Jingbo.

There should be more treasures in the Mingying battlefield than just these.

But this time when he came in, Su Chen didn’t want to go treasure hunting.

The purpose is very clear, which is to explore the origin of the Yuanshi Seal.

Senior Yin Nu gave a relatively detailed description of the location where he obtained the Yuanshi Seal.

But Su Chen was not sure whether what he said was true.

It has already appeared before that Senior Inu is not honest at all when it comes to matters concerning his core interests.

Avoiding some dangerous crises, Su Chen went deeper into the depths.

According to the location described by Senior Inu, we arrived at the designated location that night.

This place is actually quite deep and is an area with many monsters.

When Senior Yinnu was young, his strength and talent were very humble. He was able to get to this place, and he was really hardworking.

It is really not easy for him to get such an opportunity.

Among the younger generation, few dare to reach such a position.

The Indian slave predecessors when they were young might have felt somewhat desperate.

He said that his talent and ability were very humble back then.

Coming here is probably a desperate idea.

This area seemed normal, very quiet and deserted.

It is very difficult for warriors to reach this position when they enter the Mingying battlefield.

There was no trace of anyone, Su Chen could understand it.

But not only is there no trace of people here, there seems to be no trace of monsters either.

With the ability of [Good Monster Hunter], Su Chen can see the traces of monsters coming and going.

But for a month or two, no monsters had set foot in this area.

There was no sign of him passing by.

Although this place is remote, it is not a dead end.

Even if you don’t intend to come to this place, you may pass by it.

There are so many monsters in the wilderness, and there is no trace of monsters at all, so there is only one possibility.

That means these monsters are actively avoiding this area.

Su Chen was originally a little skeptical, wondering if Senior Yin Nu was lying again.

But seeing this unusual situation, Su Chen felt that this place was somewhat real.

After calming down, Su Chen began to patiently search for clues.

Just looking at it with the naked eye, there is absolutely no problem.

Su Chen also has impressive research on mechanical techniques and his strength is quite good.

But after looking around, I didn’t see any trace of the mechanism.

One hour, two hours
Nothing was found.
Su Chen could be sure that there was something strange about this place. With this place as the center, all the monsters avoided this area.

Even if it has nothing to do with the Yuanshi Seal, there must be other strange things.

Another half day of exploration, still no results.

Su Chen began to calm down and think carefully.

Connect the clues in your hands together and think about them together.

First of all, let’s talk about the information given by Senior Yinu. Apart from this location, there is nothing else of value.

Su Chen was thinking more about the things left behind by Immortal Jingbo.

While thinking, Su Chen focused his mind on the breeze blowing around him.

After learning the methods of controlling wind and attracting thunder from ancient books, Su Chen’s perception of wind and thunder is different from that of ordinary people.

I concentrated my attention on feeling the gentle breeze blowing past.

And followed, began to look for the trace of the breeze.

Most of them blew in from the east, but a few wisps came out from the ground.

These breezes are so small that they can’t even be called wind, just a few wisps of air.

But the air flow coming out from the ground means that there must be something underground.

Su Chen thought of this and immediately started to take action.

With the help of the [Craftsman] destiny, it is just a matter of digging the soil and it won’t take long.

Following the air flow, Su Chen began to dig downwards step by step.

The whole process does not go straight down, but it meanders several times in the middle.

It should be the different looseness of the soil that causes these air currents to turn and emerge from another place.

Going down, digging deeper and deeper.

When it was about five meters deep, Su Chen stepped on empty air and the soil below collapsed.

My body fell downwards and I found myself in a spacious underground secret room.

It was very dark in the secret room. Su Chen hesitated for a moment and went back upstairs.

After making a torch that lasted longer, I went back underground.

With the light source, I could see clearly what the secret room looked like.

The extreme darkness before was so severe that even for a martial artist like me who had enhanced my vision so much, it was still difficult to see clearly.

When the secret room became brighter, all that could be seen before us were piles of dry bones.

The flesh and blood had long since dried up, leaving only some clothes remaining on the dry bones.

Walking inside, there is a dead skeleton every two or three steps.

Judging from the position of these dry bones, these people were even arranged in some kind of formation when they died.

Afterwards, an extremely powerful pressure directly crushed them all.

Su Chen had no ability to judge what the strength of these dried bones was when they were alive.

But from the relics they left behind, it can be seen that these people were extraordinary.

The sophisticated weapons around him are almost all top quality.

Anyone who can hold a supreme weapon is definitely not an ordinary warrior.

Moreover, with so many people, all equipped with top-grade weapons, I wonder what kind of top force can send them out.

The person who caused their instant death was even more terrifying in strength.

Judging from the current situation, even Qiu Ruoshuang, a warrior at the Guiyi realm, would not be able to do it.

Su Chen followed the passage and continued walking inside.

The deeper they went, the more pressure of submission brought by the Yuanshi Seal came.

Feeling this pressure, Su Chen knew that he was in the right place.

Further into the passage, there seems to be a hidden cave.

However, the periphery of this hidden cave is equipped with a difficult-to-observe defensive array.

This formation is difficult for others to understand, but Su Chen knows it very well.

This is the formation method set up by Immortal Jingbo.

The methods of deceiving people are the same as what Su Chen learned from the secret book left by the immortal Jingbo.

Besides, it was dark in here and even with torches it wasn’t very clear.

If you don’t have a deep study of the formation, you probably won’t be able to discover this defensive formation.

Bending down, Su Chen removed some of his cover and began to work on ineffectiveening the defensive formation.

When it was disassembled, it was discovered that this defensive formation was actually an explosive formation.

When this formation is activated, the entire formation will automatically enter a state of disorder.

Generally speaking, if there is a problem with the formation, the team will stop playing.

However, the formation pattern of this large formation is special, and it is the exclusive skill of the immortal Jingbo.

The reaction stimulated by this array will be very violent.

This caused the entire formation to burst and explode.

Various objects that can hurt people will also be placed on the defensive formation.

As the formation explodes, these harmful objects will also explode and attack the surroundings.

Su Chen carefully took it apart.

I feel like this might be another relic left behind by the immortal Jingbo, but I’m not sure.

Immortal Jingbo did not leave so many obstacles in the other relics he left behind.

There is no formation that can harm people’s lives.

But at this moment, if one fails to detect this explosive formation, even the most powerful warriors may get into trouble.

After the defensive formation was unlocked, Su Chen continued to go deeper inside.

After pushing open a stone door, there were actually several defensive formations hidden in the cave.

I don’t know if these formations set up by the owner here are meant as tests.

If so, the consequence of failing this test would be too cruel.

Fortunately, Su Chen did have some understanding of these formations, so they didn’t have to sleep here forever.

After unlocking six defensive formations, Su Chen finally reached the deepest part of the cave.

Here, there is also a dry skeleton sitting on a cushion.

The cushion had been washed away by the years and had long since decayed, leaving only an empty shell.

On the contrary, the withered bones above still seem to retain some pressure. (End of this chapter)
