My Master Knows It All

Chapter 1622: Chapter 371:

Everyone had been assigned their tasks, and another day passed.

Boom!

A loud noise erupted, and the entire ruins began to tremble. Along with this, the light barrier at the hundred entrances of the ruins gradually faded, revealing a hundred spiritual energy bridges.

One end of these bridges led outside, while the other end connected with the ruins.

The ruins had opened!

In the passageway where Cao Zhen was, there was only him. Although he hadn’t targeted anyone, upon seeing him staying there, others retreated one after another.

Behind him, his silver wings gently flapped, and the whole person took off into the air, landing directly on the spiritual energy bridge.

He had indeed encountered danger in many places he had visited before, but now that he had reached the peak of the Longevity Period, he was truly unafraid of those dangers.

However, as he flew from the bridge into the ruins, he saw no signs of danger.

Inside the ruins, it was sunlit and warm, with a gentle breeze caressing him, making it feel full of vitality.

“It’s really strange, why can’t I sense any danger?” Cao Zhen muttered to himself as he gazed into the distance.

In his vision, a mountain peak towered into the clouds, exceptionally conspicuous. In his view, there was only this one peak, higher than the clouds.

In just a few breaths, he had flown to the front of the mountain peak. However, as he ascended further, he found that the surrounding clouds acted like a wall, blocking him from flying over them directly.

“To break through the clouds isn’t impossible, but it would require using the extreme power of the Longevity Period.”

Cao Zhen sensed the power emanating from the clouds and landed back on the mountain.

Looking up, he could see a house on the peak, with the door tightly shut, and melodious music wafting out from the house.

“So, our earlier guess was correct. This is a Musical Rhythm Mountain, and there should be others, like Calligraphy Mountain, Swordsmanship Mountain, and so on…”

Although this house was above the clouds, and his flight was obstructed by the clouds, when he walked from the mountain, there was no resistance. He walked as if on a regular mountain peak, stepping up to the house, raised his hand to push open the door, and walked in.

The next moment, the door behind him shut abruptly, and inside, the melodic sounds disappeared. Instead, in the center of the room was a huge character “Heaven”!

Beside the character was a pen and a sheet of paper, standing still in the void.

“What does this mean? Do they want the entrants to also write the character ‘Heaven’? Is it imitation, or transcendence?”

Cao Zhen was puzzled but approached the paper, glanced at the character before him, picked up the pen, and imitated the “Heaven” character, writing the same on the paper.

The moment he finished the last stroke, the house trembled violently and suddenly shot up, shrinking instantly to the size of a palm, landing in his hand.

The direction where it appeared to be originally, now had a mass of mist.

“Is it over just like that? So simple? But wasn’t this supposed to be a Musical Rhythm Mountain? How did it turn into a Calligraphy Mountain? Outside, I clearly heard music, but inside, it turned into calligraphy. Could it be that what is heard from outside is completely different from what is encountered inside these houses?”

Startled, Cao Zhen quickly took out the Sound Transmission Talisman crafted by Ling Xi, infused it with immortal power, and transmitted to everyone: “These places seem to be strange; what we hear outside and what we see inside are different.

I clearly saw a Musical Rhythm Mountain, but the test I encountered inside was the Dao of Calligraphy!

So, for now, don’t enter them.”

Unlike ruins, in perilous places, it’s impossible to use Sound Transmission Talismans to communicate. At the very least, with Ling Xi’s current capability, the talismans she crafted can’t be used in perilous places.

As soon as Cao Zhen finished speaking, the next moment, his talisman vibrated. With another infusion of immortal power, the voice of Little Beiyan came through.

“Master, you’re too late. Fortunately, I wasn’t the first to enter the house. I was just outside a Painting Way room, and outside were paintings and calligraphy. You know, Master, I don’t understand the Painting Way, but someone entered the room, so I had to stay outside. In case someone took the treasures inside, I could seize them back.

A Celestial Art Sect expert went in just a moment ago, but they were immediately thrown out and lost all signs of life.

The Celestial Art Sect is top in painting arts, yet their people died instantly. Now no one dares to enter recklessly anymore.

And from the look of his corpse, it seems like he was pierced by countless weapons.”

“Master, it’s the same here. I was just at a Talisman Peak, wanting to go in, but someone beat me to it. That person must have been very proficient in talismans, but as soon as they entered, they died instantly!”

“Master, I’m currently at an Alchemy Peak. What I encountered is the same as the other brothers and sisters. A Holy Pill Sect person went in and died in an instant. As for what lies within the door, we can’t see.”

Cao Zhen furrowed his brow; indeed, the situations inside and outside the doors were completely different.
