"Palace Lord, wasn't the location Ouyang Kuishan pointed to just now the direction where the anomaly occurred? It seems like it's most likely true." Xueying stood by for a while and couldn't help but say.

"Don't rush. If that's really the entrance to the Taiyi Hall, how could there be no restrictions or guards? Even if others arrive, it probably won't be easy to get in," Xiao Jinhan said, shaking his head.

"Do you mean that what Ouyang Kuishan said just now was false? That's unlikely, right? If he had the guts to deceive us, he wouldn't have betrayed Bai Liyan," Xueying said with a slight frown, a hint of contempt flashing in her eyes.

"We can't completely trust the words of people like Ouyang Kuishan. It's never wrong to be a little more cautious," Xiao Jinhan said slowly.

As he spoke, he flicked his finger on the formation disk.

A layer of dazzling light emerged from the formation disk, then spread out, forming another array.

The array flickered twice, and a figure emerged in the center, shining with light. It was Lu Yue.

"Subordinate greets Palace Lord. You summoned me suddenly. Is there something you need me to do?" Lu Yue asked respectfully after bowing.

"Where are you now? Did you sense anything just now?" Xiao Jinhan asked.

"Subordinate is currently in the southeast area where we separated earlier. I didn't sense anything just now," Lu Yue replied.

"Understood. Continue searching around there. If you find anything, report back immediately," Xiao Jinhan nodded and instructed.

"Yes," Lu Yue nodded, ending the communication.

Xiao Jinhan made a hand gesture, about to activate the formation disk again.

Just then, a black light appeared on his body.

His expression changed slightly, and he immediately waved his hand.

A black formation disk appeared in his hand, emitting rings of black light. A blurry black figure stood in the black light. It was the person he had spoken to secretly last time.

"Palace Lord Xiao, the entrance to the Taiyi Hall has appeared. Feng Tiandu has also discovered it and is rushing there. We have arranged everything according to plan," the black figure asked.

Hearing this, a hint of joy flashed in the depths of Xiao Jinhan's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

"Where is the Taiyi Hall?" He paused slightly before asking.

The black figure waved his hand, and black light condensed in his hand, turning into a map with a mark on it, which was basically the same place Ouyang Kuishan had mentioned.

"Good, I'll go there immediately," Xiao Jinhan nodded and said immediately.

The black figure hummed in agreement, ending the communication.

"Let's go!" Xiao Jinhan made a hand gesture, and a white light shot forward.

Xueying's eyes relaxed, and she also waved her hand, sending a ray of light into the white light beneath her.

The speed of the white light's flight immediately increased a bit.

The group flew forward for a while, and a blue light appeared in front of the group on the right, flying over extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye, it arrived before them.

Xueying frowned and stopped the white light beneath her with a hand gesture. Just as she was about to open her mouth to reprimand them, Xiao Jinhan stopped her with a look.

The blue light converged in front of them, revealing a group of Cangliu Palace cultivators. The leader was Palace Lord Luo Qinghai.

"Palace Lord Xiao, and Vice Palace Lord Xue, it's really fate that we meet here. Seeing you all in such a hurry, I wonder where you're going?" Luo Qinghai cupped his fist at Xiao Jinhan and the others, and said with a smile.

"Palace Lord Luo, please speak frankly if you have something to say," Xiao Jinhan asked calmly, his expression unchanged.

"Hehe, Palace Lord Xiao is truly straightforward. Then I won't hide anything. I discovered some ruins ahead, with a rather troublesome restriction inside. We have tried for several days, but we still haven't been able to break it. I assume there must be important treasures inside. It just so happens that Palace Lord Xiao is passing by. I wonder if you're interested in taking a look together?" Luo Qinghai asked with a smile.

"Important treasures... I wonder where it is?" Xiao Jinhan asked, his eyes flashing.

"It's not far ahead, only about half a day away," Luo Qinghai said, pointing in the direction he came from.

Xiao Jinhan looked in the direction the other person was pointing and found that it was not the direction of the Taiyi Hall's entrance.

"From what I can see, there's probably an ancient tomb under that restriction. Although I don't know who is buried there, it must be someone of great importance," Luo Qinghai said, taking out a blue jade talisman.

With a wave of his hand, the jade talisman immediately emitted a bright blue light, condensing into a water mirror. Inside, a scene of a howling wilderness with rolling sandstorms was shown.

A huge yellow light barrier, elliptical in shape, could be seen on a part of the ground, giving people a sense of chaos.

Under the light barrier, a huge mausoleum could be vaguely seen, like a giant beast lying prostrate on the ground. Even through the water mirror, one could still feel the oppressive aura it exuded.

"It seems that Palace Lord Luo is very lucky. But wouldn't it be better for you Cangliu Palace to have such a treasure land all to yourselves? Why invite us?" Xiao Jinhan glanced at the water mirror and nodded, then asked.

"Palace Lord Xiao, I already said that the restriction outside this mausoleum is extremely powerful. We have exhausted all of Cangliu Palace's power to attack for several days, but we still haven't been able to open it. If we delay any longer, it might attract the covetousness of other forces, so I've come to invite Palace Lord Xiao to go with us. The two of us can work together to break the restriction and divide the treasures inside equally. What do you think?" Luo Qinghai lowered his voice slightly, his expression solemn.

"Even the restriction that the Palace Lord of Cangliu Palace couldn't break, I'm afraid I'm powerless to do anything about it," Xiao Jinhan said, shaking his head, his eyes flickering.

"Regarding this, Palace Lord Xiao can rest assured. I've studied that array for several days, and although I haven't been able to break it, I've also come up with a solution. It's just that this solution requires six Golden Immortals to work together to execute it, so I've come to invite Palace Lord Xiao," Luo Qinghai said with a smile.

Hearing this, Xiao Jinhan paused slightly, then turned to look at Xueying and said, "Since only six people are needed, your Cangliu Palace has five Golden Immortals. You only need one more. Xueying, you take them with you and go with Palace Lord Luo."

"But Palace Lord, you suspect that... If you go alone, what if he..." Xueying said urgently, transmitting her voice to Xiao Jinhan.

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing," Xiao Jinhan waved his hand, interrupting Xueying, and said.

Hearing this, Xueying didn't say anything else.

"It's the same with Vice Palace Lord Xue going. Vice Palace Lord Xue, time is of the essence, let's set off now," Luo Qinghai urged.

After saying this, he waved his hand, sending out a blue light that enveloped the group of Cangliu Palace members and shot forward.

"Palace Lord, then I'll go now," Xueying nodded slightly to Xiao Jinhan, flipped her hand, and summoned a flying boat in the shape of a swallow, carrying the others.

"Go ahead and assist Palace Lord Luo well," Xiao Jinhan instructed calmly, emphasizing the word "assist" slightly.

Hearing this, Xueying didn't say anything more and made a hand gesture.

The flying swallow boat flew forward, disappearing into the distant horizon in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Jinhan watched the directions the two groups of people had gone, his eyes flickering. Only after their figures disappeared did he transform into a white rainbow and continue forward.

Several days later, a white light flew from a distance and landed above a huge canyon, revealing Xiao Jinhan's figure.

He stood with his hands behind his back, the howling cold wind causing his clothes to flutter. His gaze swept around.

According to the locations Ouyang Kuishan and the black figure had pointed out earlier, it should be nearby.

After a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and his figure shot out silently, flying towards a direction in the canyon.

…

Below the canyon, there was a huge square white stone wall, hundreds of feet in size, with an extremely smooth surface. It looked somewhat like a large gate.

Engraved on the stone wall from left to right was a landscape painting, lifelike and vivid.

A thick white light barrier was floating on the white stone wall, flickering continuously.

In front of the white stone wall, many people had gathered, vaguely divided into four groups.

The largest group was the Fulings Sect, with almost everyone who had entered the secret realm present, except for Feng Tiandu, Qi Tianxiao, and three other Golden Immortals. It seemed like only one or two True Immortal cultivators were missing, probably having fallen somewhere in the Immortal Mansion.

Not far from the Fulings Sect, a group of alien race cultivators stood. It was the Nanli race.

However, of the four Golden Immortals of the Nanli race, only the elderly man and the white-haired old woman were present. The other two Golden Immortals were nowhere to be seen. The number of True Immortal cultivators was also only half of the original number. It was unknown whether they had split into two groups or if the other group had already fallen.

The other two groups had the fewest people. One group was Ouyang Kuishan and the other three Zhulong Dao Golden Immortals.

The other group had even fewer people, with only one man and one woman, standing the farthest away from the crowd. The man was an old man in a black robe, with a black beard and hair, looking energetic. The woman was wearing a yellow dress and had a beautiful appearance.

If Han Li were here, he would recognize them as Huyan Daoren and Yun Ni.

Just then, a golden light flashed in mid-air, and a figure appeared silently, with a square face, a silver beard, and a white robe with golden patterns moving without wind.

Although the person hadn't spoken and there wasn't even a trace of aura emanating from his body, the scene suddenly became silent, and everyone felt an invisible pressure arising spontaneously.

This white-robed man was Xiao Jinhan.

His sudden appearance startled everyone present. Only Ouyang Kuishan and the other three showed joy and went to welcome him.

"Greetings, Palace Lord."

"You have made a great contribution this time. When we leave the Immortal Mansion, you will be heavily rewarded," Xiao Jinhan glanced at the three of them and nodded.

"Thank you, Palace Lord," Ouyang Kuishan and the other three said with joy, nodding. Then they walked to the side, standing with their hands hanging down.

Xiao Jinhan then turned his head to look at the Nanli race, Huyan Daoren, Yun Ni, and the others, his eyebrows furrowing imperceptibly.

"Palace Lord, these people should have also been nearby. After seeing the celestial phenomenon, they rushed here in the past few days," Ouyang Kuishan noticed Xiao Jinhan's expression and quickly explained through voice transmission.

Xiao Jinhan nodded slightly, without replying.

Seeing this, Ouyang Kuishan and the other three felt a slight relief.

"So it's Palace Lord Xiao. I didn't expect you to come so quickly. But why are you alone? Where are the other fellow Daoists from the Immortal Palace?" Feng Tiandu looked over, raising his eyebrows and asking.
