ent of fact from Bo Jin Yu.Shen Ningran crossed her arms and nodded in denial, "Yes, it was intentional. She wanted to push me into the water and make me embarrassed. I slipped because of her shove an..."As the Yin Xianzi said, thank you, Yin Xianzi, for giving Ji a three-day time limit. Ji will now leave this garden and go to other places to search."

After the patriarch Cangnan expressed his gratitude, he bade farewell and quickly disappeared into the murky lake water.

Chen Xuan and Chu Qingqiu finally let out a sigh of relief.

This old geezer was still scared away by the ghosts and fairies, even though they were just rumors.

The difference between celestial immortals and earthly immortals in the Shan Hai Jing is greater than the difference between humans and dogs.

For example, although the first powerful man in 50,000 years, Emperor Fuxi, had a body of martial arts immortals, there were only a few earth immortals in the Shan Hai Realm who could withstand his punch.

For example, even a water-deity immortal like the Cangnan Ancestor, could they withstand a single sword strike from Zhong Nantian, the world's foremost expert It's debatable.

The ghost fairy Yin Ruomei is as alluring as a phantom, and she alone can control Youyue Lake, one of the five major lakes in Nanguo. Even after leaving for so many years, no other top-tier cultivators dare to claim Youyue Lake as their own, which is enough to prove that Yin Ruomei's strength is extraordinary.

Actually, one's cultivation level and actual combat strength aren't perfectly equivalent. How can the combat prowess of 800 outer sect disciples and 3,000 left-path cultivators who attained immortality be compared to that of sword immortals and martial immortals who specialize in the way of killing

Though the Ghost Dao attack is inferior to that of Sword Immortal and Martial Immortal, it is still possible to cultivate into a Ghost Immortal. Those who achieve this possess an ethereal, ghostly aura, much like a phantom. However, they are not comparable to figures like the Cangnan Patriarch, who ascended to Earth Immortal through sheer luck and fortunate opportunities.

In the Shan Hai Realm, ordinary earth immortals are often weak. Their lifespans are because they focus all their cultivation on breaking through realms in pursuit of longevity, neglecting to improve their combat strength.

To attain immortality is already a daunting feat, like the legendary Wu Xian and Jian Xian. It's an incredibly difficult challenge to overcome, requiring immense effort and perseverance. Those who successfully ascend to the rank of Earth Immortal possess power that surpasses all others of their level – a mastery that eludes even the most dedicated cultivators.

Ying Chonghua confirmed that after Cangnan's ancestor escaped from the surface of the lake, she immediately turned back into the room and sealed the prohibition. Afterward, her breath returned to its long and lingering state.

"Yin Jie's hello is so impressive!"

Chu Qingqiu's beautiful eyes lit up with admiration.

Chen Xuan also had to admit, a look of admiration on his face: "Yin Chonghua, you really impressed me with your courage. To deceive a celestial being! Fortunately, Caonan ancestor is a coward, otherwise the three of us would have our lives on the line here."

Yin Chonghua said nothing. Right now, what she cared about most was Yin Ruomei's room. She had to find the top-level ghost Dao techniques stored there.

The room is simply furnished, so everything in the room is visible at a glance.

The only thing, possibly a top-level ghost dao skill, was in the dressing table, a square, exquisitely crafted treasure box.

Seeing Chen Xuan and Chu Qingqiu walk towards the treasure box under a darkening sky, curious eyes followed them as well.

Three pairs of eyes were fixed on the lid of the treasure chest. On the surface, four elegant and ancient characters were carved: "Xia Yi Ke Qi."

"What does this mean"

Chu Qingqiu was puzzled.

Yin Chonghua slightly raised her delicate brows and then tentatively sent a beam of spiritual light towards the treasure box. The beam of light was instantly absorbed by the treasure box, as if nothing had happened.

Although the treasure box looks ordinary and there's no visible arrangement of restrictions, it can instantly absorb Yin Chonghua's spiritual energy. This suggests that the surface of the treasure box is adorned with highly sophisticated restrictions.

Then Yin Chonghua unleashed numerous forbidden techniques, but the treasure box remained unmoved. Even his powerful magical artifacts above the double wheels couldn't harm it in the slightest.

"The Evil Emperor borrows your Xuanyuan Sword for a while."

Yin Chonghua didn't mind and shook Chen Xuan's hand.

Chen Xuan, however, didn't just pull out the Xuanyuan Sword: "The key to opening the treasure chest is obviously on the lid with these four characters carved on it. I think relying solely on brute force will not only fail to open the treasure chest but might even damage what's inside."

Yin Chonghua knew that Chen Xuan was right. She understood that the four characters on the box lid had meaning, but she had no idea how to open it based on them.

At this time, Chu Qingqiu took on the role of a divergent thinker: "Yin Jie's Chen Xuan, you said that these Xia Yi point to whether we are descendants of Huaxia"

Or are they descendants of the Xia Dynasty

"I don't know the relationship between Yin Ru Mei and the Great Xia Dynasty, but the surface meaning should be that descendants of the Great Xia can open the treasure box."

Chen Xuan thought Yin Ru Mei couldn't possibly have come from Huaxia to the Shan Hai Realm. Although Yin Zhong Hua had said that Yin Ru Mei and her Yin clan had a major connection.

Whether it's Dàxià or Huáxià, the key point is that there are no other clues to open the treasure box besides these four characters. Even if we are descendants of the Xia clan, it won't help.

Yin Chonghua looked around the room again, hoping to find more clues.

Chen Xuan smiled faintly and said, "It's very simple. Let's try the old-fashioned method first."

Chu Qingqiu and Yin Chonghua both looked at him curiously, wanting to know what he meant by "outdated methods."

Actually, Chen Xuan, with his simple way of thinking, believed the most direct way to prove himself as a descendant of the Great Xia dynasty was to display his bloodline.

And he, with the purest blood of the Three Emperors flowing in his veins as a descendant of Xia, directly dripped a drop of essence blood onto the lid of the treasure box and looked. There was no reaction.

As Chen Xuan had predicted, the treasure box absorbed his drop of blood and emitted streaks of light. Then, layers of mechanisms within the box began to unlock with a series of clicks. Finally, with a soft "pa" sound, the lid flipped open, revealing an object inside.

Chen Xuan and two others saw a jade bracelet and a blue ancient book with four characters on its cover, "Whisper of the Moon".

Seeing this jade bracelet, Chen Xuan didn't even need to think to know that it must have been the token of love that Guchen Xiao had given to Qiu Sanniang back then.

Then he took the bracelet out of the treasure box, and beneath it, that blue booklet was picked up by Yin Chonghua's hand.

When Yin Chonghua opened the first page, Chen Xuan's attention shifted from the bracelet to the booklet.

Chu Qingqiu also came over.

Coming into view before the three were rows upon rows of elegant, small characters.

"If you can open this booklet and see these words, it proves that you are the purest descendant of the Great Xia Dynasty because you have used the blood of Great Xia to unlock the treasure chest."

"It also means you and I are as close as shadow and light, fated to be together."

This treasure chest contains two items. One is a jade bracelet crafted by the legendary Emperor Fuxi himself and gifted to the immortal physician Gu Chenxiao by his daughter. This bracelet was later bestowed upon Qiu Shengnan, the third daughter of the Five Lakes Moneychanger in the Southern Kingdom, by Gu Chenxiao.

Although this jade bracelet is not an illegal treasure, it is one of the few remaining relics left by the human emperor Fuxi. I do not want it to fall into the hands of outsiders, so I took it back from Qiu Sanniang's possession and intended to hand it over to the descendants of the Xia Dynasty for safekeeping. However, I have been unable to find them, so I can only temporarily hide it in my secluded dwelling at the bottom of Youyue Lake.

After that, I questioned the Ghost Emperor about why he hadn't gone to Zhongzhou to help Fuxi and the Great Xia Dynasty resist the invasion of demons and witches back then. He chose to journey into the Netherworld alone under the pretense of seclusion, spending many years at the bottom of Youyue Lake to establish a passageway there leading to the Netherworld.

“This farewell note, before embarking on a journey to the netherworld, perhaps one with no return, was left by someone who resided at the secluded Moon Lake. It contains their insights and experiences gained during their practice of Taoist arts. As a descendant of the Xia Dynasty, I hope you will take good care of this relic left behind by the Emperor Fuxi. The author expresses their gratitude for entrusting me with this valuable item.”

After reading this passage, the book suddenly relaxed and a piece of paper with a golden chrysanthemum pattern and a bookmark slipped out.

Chen Xuan caught it and took a look. On the book signature, there were seven characters: "A lifetime bowing to Fuxi".us, isn't it"With plastic surgery in the past and now Zhou Zhiru directly accusing her, even several elders of the palace family should start to doubt her identity.Mo Cang thought deeply about Shen Ni...
