Chapter One Hundred and Fifteen: The People of the Autumn Family

  With the help of his extraordinary soul power and his own caution, Chen Ye approached the left front without any scruples... With his current cultivation, as long as he is not a high-ranking expert in the Upper Mystic Realm, no one can detect him.

  If there really is such a master in front of the left side, now at this time, it has already been discovered, and even more so without hiding or evading.

  It was only a few hundred meters away, and after more than ten seconds, Chen Ye had already arrived, sweeping up a large tree, looking through the gaps in the branches... It turned out that in front of him was a vast open space, and on the open space, five people were sitting cross-legged.

  These five people formed a circle, with old and young, male and female, each with their own thoughts, as if they were cultivating.

  Of course, in the wilderness, especially where monsters roam, it is impossible to cultivate in such a bright and upright manner. Even if these five people's cultivation is not bad, the weakest one has already reached the third level of the initial spiritual realm. Among them, the strongest old man can sense his breath, which has already reached the middle spiritual realm, but he cannot judge which layer it is in.

  With such a masterful opponent, if they were to clash, Chen Ye would have to use every trick in the book just to preserve his life and retreat.

  Curious about what these five people are doing tonight?

  However, this curiosity only lasted for a few seconds. When Chen Ye's gaze shifted slightly and moved away from the five people for a moment, he saw that in the middle of their encirclement, there was a huge pit.

  This hole is so deep that it's naturally invisible at dawn and night, but I should guess that these five people are staying here, which should be related to that pit.

  Everyone has curiosity, and Chen Ye is no exception. Since he came here, he doesn't want to leave without knowing anything. Moreover, he hasn't forgotten that what attracted him was the feeling of something being off from the auras of these people.

  However, the five people in front of him looked normal, and the unusual aura that had been present since he arrived here also strangely disappeared.

  Five people sat cross-legged and motionless, as if waiting for something.

  At a glance, the empty space in front of him was indeed an empty space, with very few plants. However, this empty space had too few plants.

  Originally being in the midst of a mountain range, and not a barren desert, how could there be no plants on the ground at all? Moreover, that patch of land was emitting faint black smoke, as if it had been scorched by fierce flames.

  Here, everywhere reveals some strange, how can you not see clearly?

  In the midst of quiet waiting, more than an hour flew by swiftly. At this moment, the earth seemed to have shaken lightly, and then, visible to the naked eye, a fiery red light burst out from the pit in the circle of five people.

  A fiery glow shot up into the air, carrying with it an extremely hot breath that instantly raised the temperature of the surrounding space by no small margin. Even Chen Ye felt the scorching heat at this moment, as if he was being directly exposed to the blazing sun.

  Just as the light appeared, the old man among the five people quickly moved his hands, and a object floated out quickly. Then the five people simultaneously made their move, each of them forcing their vital energy into that object.

  "Hum!"

  When the Five Elements of Mystical Energy entered, that small object suddenly expanded violently, and in the end, it transformed into a giant iron tower-like size, shooting into the fiery red light.

  The old man's eyes narrowed slightly, and the iron tower, after being enveloped in a fiery red glow, was actually absorbing energy from it. At the same time, the absorbed energy seemed to have been refined by the iron tower and transformed into a stream of energy that surged into the old man's body.

  As such energy entered, Chen Ye could vaguely sense the old man's breath gradually stabilizing.

  "What is this?"

  The old man's body was injured, and he was using this unknown energy to heal his wounds.

  The world is vast and indeed has everything!

  I never thought about it on a quiet night, but unexpectedly encountered such a thing.

  That fiery red glow, without a doubt, had a scorching aura. To say nothing of ordinary people, even if he were to directly enter it at dawn or dusk, he probably wouldn't be able to resist much and would be melted by the glow.

  Those five people, don't know what they rely on, are so close to the fiery red light, yet not a single hair is harmed. And that iron tower, also doesn't know what kind of treasure it is, actually isn't afraid of the scorching heat of the fiery red light either...

  However, although it is so, these are only temporary, visible to the naked eye, the iron tower in the fiery red light, its current state is not very good, apparently, it cannot last for too long. And those five people, due to the scorching heat, except for the old man who was using this energy to heal his wounds and looked fine, the other four were all lightly trembling, they should also be unable to hold on for much longer.

  At this moment, Chen Ye finally felt that eerie aura too, and it turned out that the source was here.

  After a while, Chen Ye withdrew his gaze, and he was no longer curious about these five people. His curiosity had all shifted to that fiery red glow.

  "Dao Ling, can you sense what that light is?"

  Whenever something strange happens, there must be a genius treasure! This principle, Chen Ye understands, and believes that the five of them also understand. However, the latter group did not make further discoveries, but simply relied on the light to heal their wounds, which is enough to know that with their abilities, they cannot excavate the treasures buried in the deep pit.

  "After a moment of silence, Knife Spirit said: 'In the world, there are too many rare and precious things, I'm not clear what it is either. But I can be sure that in that deep pit, something must be hidden.'"

  At this point, Knife Spirit smiled and said: "What's wrong, Master? You're moved?"

  Upon hearing this, Chen Ye also smiled. If he wasn't moved by the words, that would be a lie. But now, that old man obviously needed that guy to heal his wounds. Chen Ye wasn't that kind of unreasonable person...

  "Hey!"

  Just as they were about to think more, the old man among the five let out a loud roar, his two hands beckoned, and the iron tower transformed back into its original shape, returning to his hand. Immediately, the other four people also rapidly retreated.

  At this moment, the old man's breath was slowly rising, and although the speed was slow, it made people know that he could reach the next level.

  But that fiery red glow did not change in any way due to the actions of these five people, as if it came from nature, a kind of wonder of the universe, and continued here.

  At last, at a certain moment, the old man's breath stabilized at a level, and a clear and pleasant voice came out of his mouth.

  "Grandfather, congratulations to you! Not only have your injuries recovered somewhat, but your cultivation has also advanced a level." The sole woman present smiled tenderly.

  The old man turned around, smiled for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly became stern as he stared at a certain spot in the surroundings. He shouted loudly: "Friend, you've been watching for quite some time too, haven't you? Will you show yourself?"

  In that direction, it is the place where Chen Ye is located. Chen Ye was stunned, with his cultivation as an elder, even if he had made progress to another level, shouldn't he have discovered himself?

  "Master, at the moment of breakthrough in cultivation, one's perception will greatly increase..."

  So that's how it is!

  Chen Ye nodded slightly, flashed out from behind the big tree, and appeared in front of the five people. Since he had been discovered, hiding was not an option. With the old man being such a powerful expert on the other side, it was impossible to leave quietly without being noticed.

  "Passersby, I came here unintentionally, hoping not to disturb everyone!"

  The five of them were stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting that it would be such a young man... So young, yet none of them had noticed the depth of his strength, leaving everyone puzzled!

  "Was it unintentional?" After regaining her composure, the woman coldly smiled and waved her hand. Except for the old man, the other three people floated up and surrounded Chen Ye, trapping him inside. This move made it clear that unless Chen Ye came up with a reasonable explanation, he wouldn't be able to leave easily today.

  He glanced around at midnight, and his eyes finally stayed on the old man, saying lightly: "They don't believe I'm unintentional, it's understandable, but if you also think I'm intentional, that's not right."

  Upon hearing this, the old man's expression turned stern, and after a moment, he slowly said: "I am Qiu Zhen, the master of the Qiu family from Qingyang Town outside the mountain. I don't know how you should be addressed, young brother?"
