Chapter 602: Ancient Cave Dwelling (1/2)
Ye Chuan who had risked his life all along the way was stupefied like wooden chicken. It was not because of the three words “Heavenly Yao Cave”, rather the pattern on the side.
Over a period of a long time, this pattern carved on the wall was already blurred, but it was still recognizable, which was a bamboo. A thin bamboo branch and a piece of a bamboo leaf could be clearly identified.
This was not a pattern, rather a unique symbol!
Under heaven, only one person used bamboo as a symbol. She was none other than his follower, Blue Eyed Yao Empress, in other words, founder of Heavenly Yao Sect!
Ye Chuan stood still in a daze. He was greatly shocked in his heart. He vaguely seemed to see a past scene. No one knew how Blue Eyed Yao Empress arrived here, she accidentally discovered a grotto. She then carved three large words ‘Heavenly Yao Cave’ on the cliff along with her symbol, wanting to build another cave dwelling here.
When did Blue Eyed Yao Empress find this grotto? When did she leave?
Blue Eyed Yao Empress liked this place definitely because of this land’s feng shui. Later, he didn’t know what happened but was abandoned, becoming the current forbidden zone.
Ye Chuan was very confused. Suddenly seeing the symbol of his former follower Blue Eyed Yao Empress, his heart was stirred. Only after a good while, he slowly came back to his senses as a cold and gloomy wind that came from inside the grotto blow against his body.
“Zixia, Zixia……’
Ye Chuan loudly called out again. As he expected, there still was no response. But, after sensing around for a while, Ye Chuan could vaguely sense a familiar aura in that gust of cold wind. He even seemed to have heard the sounds of chains being dragged. That aura and that sound made Ye Chuan’s eyes shone. He hastily bandaged the wounds on his back and boldly entered the cave after taking out Iron Blooded Banner.
Whoosh……
A cold wind blew against his face. After stepping into the Heavenly Yao Cave, Ye Chuan felt unusual coldness. His right leg was already feeling numb.
There was a strange chill in Heavenly Yao Cave.
Ye Chuan, however, took a deep breath and continued forward, gritting his teeth. Soon, both of his legs were numb, then half of his body. The cold qi rapidly spread all over his body. Even after circulating 12 Heaven Swallowing Talismans, he was having difficult to resist this cold qi. If he continued to stay inside Heavenly Yao Cave, then he might become an ice sculpture not long after.
Ye Chuan took a step forward with great difficulty and looked around.
Like outside, inside Heavenly Yao Cave was also filled with fog. But, upon looking carefully, he could see the vague outline inside. This grotto had elegantly decorated hall inside. There were carvings and paintings with the patterns of Wilderness World millions of years ago, everywhere on the walls. Around the hall, there were many different sized grottos. There were cultivation chamber, alchemy chamber, study, weapon storing chamber and so on. This place was not big, but all kinds of chambers were available here, everything needed was there. Looking up, it was enveloped in mist whose end couldn’t be seen. Although the entrance was not big, it was a completely different world inside.
One could well imagine that this place was used as a cultivation cave dwelling in the past. It was very likely that Blue Eyed Yao Empress had used all her powers to build this place, preparing to use for long term seclusion. Unfortunately, after millions of years, this huge cave-dwelling had became a discarded place. It was covered in dust, the walls and ceiling were full of spider webs, resembling a broken-down dwelling.
“Zixia, Zixia……”
