But thinking about the Profound Turtle Cave Mansion matter, he had a worried expression again.

Since the large formation at the entrance of the Profound Turtle Cave Mansion was broken, the battles among the major Immortal Sects became much more frequent, with countless casualties, of course.

Originally, according to the plan by the Sect Leader and the elders, members of the sect could return each year to collect pills, but due to the intense exploration, they needed them to escort the pills to Purple Ice Lake.

"How many people will die this time?"

A month later, Gu Yuan and Zhong Mountain arrived at the wilderness around Purple Ice Lake.

The Good Beast Sect’s group was stationed on a mountain peak which was originally occupied by a middle-stage second-rank monster, but it was killed under the siege of the Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Good Beast Sect, and even its territory was seized.

The two verified their identities, descended to the mountain peak, handed over the pills to an elder, and someone came to inform them to head to the Profound Turtle Cave Mansion entrance for assembly.

"Is there a new discovery?"

Hearing the news, the two were extremely delighted and hurriedly flew on their swords towards the cave mansion entrance.

Along the way, traces of magical battles could be seen occasionally; the Purple Ice Lake region was teeming with monsters, and this was after the Supreme Profound Sect had led away a group; otherwise, even with many cultivators gathered here, they wouldn’t dare to clash head-on with the monsters.

Over the years, disciples from the Immortal Sects and loose cultivators, apart from breaking the entrance’s Spirit Array, would also spend a lot of time and effort dealing with scattered monsters around.

Before long, they landed at the cave mansion entrance, which was a hollowed-out mountain peak, with faint streams of magical light flowing faintly over the surrounding mountain walls.

Immortal Sect cultivators from various places had gathered here, besides the Good Beast Sect and Supreme Profound Sect, there were practitioners from the Guangnan Domain and several surrounding domains’ lower-level Immortal Sects.

Altogether, there were no less than twenty Immortal Sects’ cultivators present.

"I heard the people from Fuyun Mountain arrived too!"

An elder who came along with Gu Yuan and Zhong Mountain said in a low voice.

This exerted considerable pressure on everyone, as Fuyun Mountain was considered the most famous Immortal Sect in the surrounding domains.

The sect has many Foundation Establishment cultivators, and it even birthed Golden Core cultivators, but Golden Core cultivators generally rarely stay in Small Domains and mostly head towards Large Domains.

No one knew what had become of the Golden Core cultivators recorded by Fuyun Mountain.

Chong Mountain pondered quietly.

At that level, no Immortal Sect would think of using an Immortal Contract to bind a Golden Core cultivator, that would undoubtedly be courting death.

The inside of the cave was exceptionally spacious, yet there was no passage extending inward, which was quite normal.

Rarely would an alchemist’s cave mansion be opened underground or within a mountain, unless there was another world inside.

In many Foundation Establishment cultivators’ speculations, the Profound Turtle Alchemist was an alchemist, so his cave mansion must be in a place of earth, otherwise, it would not be possible to nurture a medicine garden and cultivate the herbs used for alchemy.

Therefore, it was most likely in a place with both water and earth.

The distance from the center of Purple Ice Lake couldn’t be far, but unfortunately, frequent spirit magnet phenomena occurred around Purple Ice Lake, making sword flight almost a suicidal act, that’s why they dared not venture openly.

Moreover, even if the location was truly found, it couldn’t be said that it would be recognized.

Experienced Foundation Establishment cultivators attach great importance to their cave mansions, let alone the well-off Profound Turtle Alchemist.

Based on past false cave mansions, it’s clear that the chance of finding the Profound Turtle Alchemist’s cave mansion by straying off the path is very slim, at least it’s not something Foundation Establishment cultivators can achieve.

Golden Core cultivators might stand a chance!

But Golden Core cultivators mostly are not in Small Domains, and besides, they might not be interested in the inheritance of a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

In the past, when the Profound Turtle Alchemist’s cave mansion was highly rumored, occasionally curious Golden Core cultivators passing by would take a look; with their methods, breaking the numerous Spirit Arrays left by the Profound Turtle Alchemist was not difficult, yet the gains were scant, so they left promptly.

After thousands of years, the reputation of the Profound Turtle Alchemist’s cave mansion had become blemished; even if a Golden Core cultivator heard of it, they wouldn’t bother to make the trip.

"Sect Leader! Fellow Daoists, any progress?"

Soon everyone found the group from the Good Beast Sect.

Sect Leader Yan Jue said, "The second Spirit Array key has been found."

Everyone looked forward, where there was a door, inside which numerous seated figures could be seen.

They were the top alchemists from various Immortal Sects.

The second Spirit Array of the Profound Turtle Alchemist requires someone with an Alchemy Dao cultivation to comprehend it.

This is one of the reasons numerous cultivators value this cave mansion.

Because previous false cave mansions generally did not have such restrictions.

"This time, it really should be the Profound Turtle Alchemist’s Cultivation Cave Mansion."

It was well known that the Profound Turtle Alchemist had no descendants, so it’s very likely this place was his search for a suitable Alchemy Dao inheritor’s cave mansion.

Everyone agreed.

However, Yan Yu wasn’t in a good mental state; he did not want to see this, as once it’s confirmed to be an inheritance cave mansion, he likely wouldn’t gain much from it.

In the Good Beast Sect, the most outstanding in Alchemy Dao talent is none other than He Feng, but He Feng’s talent still falls short compared to the disciples of several veteran alchemists from Fuyun Mountain.

"Hopefully not, this way we can still gain more."

Yan Yu prayed in his heart, but sometimes, the more you do not wish for something, the more likely it comes.

A half day passed, and numerous alchemists within the sect stood up successively, then sect leaders received sound transmission shell messages.

"Protect Alchemist Huang."

Yan Yu also received messages from Huang Yun and others, and then shouted in a low voice.
