to the token.'Boom!'A piece of text appeared in Qin Sang's mind!As expected, it's similar to a jade tablet, an object used to store information.Qin Sang looked thoughtfully at the corpse of the Baiyun...Yan Wu seized the opportunity to escape the engulfing of the Feng Tuan, finally entering the wind tunnel at the last moment and escaping danger.

"Thank you, Senior Elder Yu, for saving my life."

Yan Wu, though appearing rough and bold, was also a grateful person. He expressed his gratitude to Yu Kongxing with a deep bow, almost to the point of tears and prostrating himself on the ground.

It may seem exaggerated, but after all, it's a life-saving grace, and everyone can understand.

After this incident, the other people looked at Yu Kong with a few less wary eyes.

Previously, the words of Luo Xingnan and Sheng Yuanzi had, to some extent, planted some discordant seeds. Now, they have been diluted by a large part. For a time, the atmosphere in the team eased considerably.

Having finally made it through the perilous journey and entered the cave, everyone felt a sense of relief. They quickly began to examine their surroundings.

The wind howled, and the rain poured down in torrents.

The wind was fierce and the rain was biting. Even though they were all cultivators, some could no longer bear it and hurriedly channeled their spiritual energy to protect themselves.

Oddly, these raindrops vanished after landing on them or the ground, as if they were illusions, yet they were truly there. One could clearly feel the raindrops hitting their bodies, and they had a certain destructive power.

These winds and raindrops are actually manifestations of chaotic spiritual energy. The entire cave dwelling is not entirely rain, in other places there are heavenly fires falling, and there is also a sky full of yellow sand.

There are all sorts of strange phenomena, countless and varied.

Vision blurred and obstructed their view, so that all they could see were the shadows of the mountains ahead. They couldn't make out the people or buildings on the mountaintop. Most prominent was the ancestral temple at the summit, visible only as the outline of an ancient building.

The mountains were steep and rugged, like a sword thrusting towards the heavens.

A man-made stone staircase began at the foot of the mountain, stretching all the way to a place where people could not see clearly.

At this time, some places in the mountains had twinkling lights piercing through the rain curtain. They were escaping lights flickering, and many people had already entered the cave mansion ahead of them, starting their treasure hunt journey.

“These sights are caused by the chaos of the protective barrier’s power leaking. Right now, the barrier is at its lowest point. As long as you protect yourself with spiritual energy, there shouldn't be any major problems. However, it's best to walk up the mountain. Flying into the sky makes it easy to get caught in the chaotic spiritual energy, otherwise, it will take a lot of effort to get free…”

Yu Kong was not in a hurry to climb the mountain, but instead repeated the precautions needed in the cave dwelling, warning everyone. Then he turned around and pointed behind him and said:

“Remember where we came from. Before the trough ends, the large formation won't change much. From the starting point, you'll encounter the same wind formation that you already know. It's easier to go out than come in, so don't worry about being trapped inside the formation.”

Behind them, boundless clouds formed a chaotic scene, like a gigantic eye of the wind.

Everyone remembered the location where they were to enter.

These are common sense things to know after entering the cave, Yu Kong repeatedly reminded everyone, lest anyone overlook anything.

"There are still some fellow cultivators who have not responded to Yu's request," Yu Kong's gaze fell on the Xiu sisters and Mu Teng elder, etc., "Now that we have entered the cave abode, I wonder what plans those fellow cultivators have. Will you follow Yu to Lingbao Pavilion behind the mountain, or act independently"

Qin Sang had agreed to Yu Kong's invitation long ago, and stepped forward, standing behind Yu Kong. Yan Wu also went without hesitation, followed by Shangguan Lifeng.

The others looked at each other, all hesitating.

Mu Teng, the elder, lightly coughed and asked seriously, “Friend Yu said before that whoever finds a treasure first in Lingbao Pavilion gets it, and others are not allowed to fight over it. I wonder what Friend Yu would do if someone sees a treasure and covets it, violating this rule”

Yu Kong looked around and said lightly, "Yu will join other cultivators to eliminate him. I believe the other cultivators share my view and find such despicable actions abhorrent. If Yu goes back on his word, all of you don't have to hesitate!"

Hearing this, the old man Mu Teng's eyes flashed, he nodded, and walked to Yu Kong's side.

Wu Chen struggled for a while, and then followed.

Just three women remained. Yueya Fairy smiled sweetly and, with a pitiful expression, leaned closer, “This humble servant is all alone. To receive the care of Senior Yu and the help of these fellow cultivators brings me great joy. How could I refuse”

The Xiu sisters conferred for a moment, then together bowed to Yu Kong with a hint of apology. "Our sisters have other goals," they said, "and unfortunately, they're not in the back mountain. We're unable to travel with Senior Yu. Please forgive us."

Yu Kong didn't mind. He stretched out his hand and said calmly, "As I said before, everyone is free to come and go. The two Misses, please feel free to leave. May you both get your wish."

Thank you, seniors!

The Xiu family sisters bowed and departed, disappearing into the rain under everyone's gaze.

Yu Kong smiled and said, "Although we are two Taoist friends short, the power of the Guiyuan Formation has been greatly reduced. However, all of you are outstanding in strength, and I believe that this time you will surely return with full loads. Let's go up the mountain quickly, everyone, follow me."

After saying this, Yu Kong’s figure flashed and he charged into the rain curtain. The others hastily raised their escape lights and followed closely behind.

The stone steps were steep, and many places were severely damaged, but for cultivators, these were not obstacles. The crowd followed closely behind Yu Kong, dashing towards the mountain peak. Along the way, they encountered others, who all gave way to each other, no one would start a conflict here.

After a short while, everyone arrived at the summit. Just as everyone thought Yu Kong was going to leap over the Hall of Offerings and run towards the back mountain, he actually walked straight towards the front of the Hall of Offerings and stepped inside.

This left everyone incredibly surprised, wondering why he would linger in this place that was already confirmed as a ruin.

The main hall dedicated to offerings has been turned upside down, no one would waste time here, there isn't a single figure in the hall.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Outside, the torrential rain continued unabated, and the ancient temple had become a ruin.

The only clay sculpture, lopsided and displaced from its original location, has long since lost its color, revealing its age. However, it is discernible as a figure of a Taoist priest.

Yu Kong stood in the great hall, gazing up at the crooked mud sculpture.

Its posture seemed as if it were worshipping.

Everyone followed him in.

Yu Kong looked at the clay sculpture and smiled: “My friends, don’t be surprised. I was just remembering what a friend said: when one receives kindness, one must always keep a trace of gratitude in their heart. Yu Kong deeply agrees with this. Last time, I received a spiritual pill here that helped me break through to the middle stage. Unfortunately, the master of the cave abode is long gone, and I don’t know his name. Yu Kong has nothing to offer in thanks. Now that I've returned to the cave abode, I'll come in to pay my respects. It won't take long.”

As he spoke, Yu Kong walked to the clay sculpture, reaching out to gently straighten it and brush away the dust. Then, he stood ten paces in front of the sculpture.

Stand with feet together and hands hanging naturally at your sides.

The lower jaw is received inward, the tip of the tongue touches the palate, and the chest is held in, with the back arched.

After putting on a show, Yu Kong unexpectedly performed three bows and nine prostrations towards the clay sculpture!

Everyone looked at each other in surprise, but seeing Yu Kong's serious expression, no one dared to speak up.

Qin Sang's eyes flickered, a strange feeling lingered in his heart. He couldn't tell if Yu Kong was truly sincere or cunningly disguised as loyal!
