Along the outskirts of the Zhong Zhou Province, on a luxury bus, two men and a woman were conversing. The older man looked spirited and energetic despite his old age while the other younger man's expression suggested he possessed a sharp mind and sound judgment. The girl beside them was young; she watched the two men with a pair of witty eyes.

They were Chen Fan and his entourage.

Chen Fan had politely refused Zhou Tianhao's offer for a ride. He was not in a hurry, and therefore, he had decided to take a bus so that he could enjoy the view on the way. The bus was slow, it had been three days, and they had just crossed the border into Zhong Zhou Province.

The girl next to him was A'Xiu.

A'Xiu sat quietly with determination written all over her face. Regardless of how many times Chen Fan had asked her to leave, she just stared back with a pair of watery eyes, begging to stay with him.

Master Wu took pity on the girl and braved a request for her to travel with them. Chen Fan kept his silence, which Master Wu took as permission.

However, the girl quickly proved to be quite a helper.

Both Chen Fan and Master Wu were used to having everything done for them. Therefore, they asked the girl to handle most of the chores, such as buying train tickets, booking a hotel, and asking for directions.

Chen Fan looked at Master Wu with a half smile.

Master Wu's real name was Wu Shanhe.

The smile on his face frozen in place when he noticed Chen Fan was studying his face intensely.

"Why are you looking at me like this? I have already told you everything I know. "

"Really?" Chen Fan fished out the grey crystal from his pocket and asked, "What really is going on at the Yin Dragon Pond? Don't try to fool me again. I know more than you about this Yin Dragon Pond."

Yin Crystals only formed around areas where Yin Qi conglomerated.

Such a place was practically a heaven for sentient beings that cultivated the Yin Qi. Calling it a sacred ground was not overstating it, particularly on earth where most of the Qi had already dried up. It was like a lush oasis that would attract all kinds of animals, big and small.

Not all sentient beings cultivated the Spirit Qi. Some felt a closer affinity for the Malice Qi, Yin Qi, and even Fiend Qi.

If Master Wu and his sect were really in charge of such a sacred ground for cultivation, he would have at least reached the Ethereal Enlightenment level. However, Chen Fan knew that that was far from reality.

Master Wu's smile evaporated from his face; his body quivered as he stammered... "Master Chen, you already knew about that place?"

"Know what?" Chen Fan's face was placid and calm.

The old man no longer dared lie to Chen Fan, so he shared it all. "Actually... this pond indeed belongs to my sect.

"My sect is called the Yin Ghost Sect, and our founder was an infamous Captain of the Tomb Raiders—Yes, it was a thing ever since back in the Han Dynasty. Our founder lived during the Qin Dynasty, and he stumbled upon an ancient tomb of the Tang period, and it turned out to be a treasure trove. From the tomb, he had gained a secret art of the ancient Tang dynasty family, and he started cultivating following the method outlined in the art. After a while, he started up his own sect. "

"I am the third-generation disciple of our founder. I have two more sect brothers. Their powers were both on par with mine. My teacher had passed away many years ago, and the three of us had been managing the sect since.
