Chapter 619 - Hidden Sect (2/2)

“It’s… it’s the Sacred Medicine Sect!” Someone exclaimed. They immediately moved forward, but on seeing that Lonemoon, Yi Qing and Shen Ying were still standing rooted to the ground, they changed their minds. Instead, they just watched them, waiting for directions.

The sect seemed to have been hidden in another space because of the Spatial Li. Now that the Spatial Li has been chased away, the sect has shown itself.

These cultivators were all here to search for opportunities. Of course, the Sacred Medicine Sect was what everyone was looking for. However, Lonemoon had no interest in it whatsoever. Therefore, he did not stop them from entering. Instead, after activating his divine perception and making sure that there were no other dangers lurking around, he allowed them to go ahead.

Everybody rejoice immediately. After bowing to them respectfully, they entered the palace. None of them were treating Lonemoon and Yi Qing as possessions to be won over anymore. Instead, all of them were treating them as respected and distinguished elders.

Chef, however, scanned the palace and suddenly muttered, “Father Niu, don’t you think that this palace-”

“Is too perfect,” Lonemoon completed his sentence. He frowned even more deeply. Looking up at the mountain gate, he read the sign that said, “Sacred Medicine Sect”.

According to what Lu Lin told them, this valley has been here for a long time. Yet, this Sacred Medicine Sect seemed to have maintained its perfect exterior so well. It did not look like it had been destroyed in any type of natural disaster.

“Let’s take a look around!” Lonemoon suddenly said. The three of them mounted their words and flew around the palace, looking for clues. Apart from the fact that there was no living aura around, they did not find anything out of the ordinary.

The cultivators from the Dawning Pill Sect, however, yielded different results. All of them came back hugging many things in their hands. The palace was very well-maintained – of course the things that they found were all in working condition and stored nicely away in the storage room.

“Elder, we found the inheritance of the Sacred Medicine Sect in their storage room,” one of the female cultivators said as she carried a storage bag to Lonemoon and Yi Qing. One would think she was reporting back to them. She did not even look like she wanted to keep any of it for herself. Each one of the other female cultivators did the same.

Lonemoon stared blankly at them. These people were so honest. He shook his head and said, “You all found these. These are yours. We don’t need them.”

“Well…” One of the female cultivators’ expressions looked troubled. “But we only managed to find the Sacred Medicine Sect thanks to you, Elders.” The things inside were rightfully theirs. If not for the three of them, the female cultivators might even have been eaten by that strange demonic beast.

The other female cultivators mumbled in agreement. They kept trying to persuade the three of them to accept the loot, but after seeing that they had no intention to, they finally turned around and walked away.

Once again, Lonemoon inspected the empty palace. Still, he could find nothing out of the ordinary. His expression falling, he said, “Strange! Why did the Spatial Li hide this place?” There’s nothing special about it.

“Let’s go and take a look at the entrance?” Shen Ying suddenly suggested.

Entrance? What entrance?

Lonemoon stared blankly back at her. Suddenly, he recalled that the Spatial Li seemed to be acting as a gate when they first noticed it. Could it be that this had something to do with the mountain gate? The three of them headed toward the mountain gate. Coincidentally, one of the cultivators from Dawning Pill Sect was just about to step through the gate.

As she stepped through it, the mountain gate formed a layer of ice. The entire thing trembled, and something like yin Qi shot out from the gate, filling the surrounding air and causing the temperature around them to drop.

“Holy shit!” Lonemoon shouted.

Chef was one step ahead of him. He summoned his sword and with one flash, freed the female cultivator from the gate. She flew backward from the impact, landing far away from the gate.

That was… Ghost Qi from the Underworld!
