Shaking his head, Ma Elder walked out with his hands behind his back.
Qin Xuan stared blankly at the small booklet, remaining motionless.
"Qin Xuan, wake up!"
Bai Xiaohu jumped out of Qin Xuan's arms and looked at Qin Xuan, who was staring blankly at the booklet, feeling a bit anxious.
"This kid didn't really fall for it, did he?"
"Not necessarily!"
Putting down the small booklet, Qin Xuan coldly looked towards Ma Elder's Immortal Cave.
"This fellow truly has a death wish!"
Saying that, Qin Xuan settled his Qi into his Dantian, and instantly a sugar pill was spat out by him.
Not only the Gu worms, but even the medicine was spat out by him.
As a Chaotic Body, separating these medicines and sugar pills was as easy as flipping a hand.
"This old man, a Di Xuan Realm Cultivator, actually dared to plot against me. If it weren't for the important matter at hand, I could make him die dozens of times!"
Qin Xuan spoke coldly, the killing intent in his eyes becoming incredibly thick.
"Heh, I thought you had fallen for it too."
Bai Xiaohu said with a grin.
"What do you think of this person?"
"I always feel that this Ma Elder is not simple."
Bai Xiaohu stroked its chin in thought, looking truly like a human.
Qin Xuan thought for a moment and also nodded.
"Indeed, no matter how I look at it, I feel that this Ma Elder has some issues."
"A Sect Elder constantly researching these things... in my opinion, even if he doesn't know the entrance to the relic, he at least knows something."
"So I want to use him as a Breakthrough point. This way, I might be able to get some useful things from him."
Listening to Qin Xuan's words, Bai Xiaohu pondered for a long time and also nodded.
"What you said makes sense. Aside from anything else, no matter how I look at this Ma Elder, I feel like he has too many secrets."
"Moreover, he might even be a Gu Master, or at least has connections with a Gu Master."
Looking across the continent, throughout the entire world, only the Southern Border has the Dao of Gu.
The Dao of Gu worms is completely different from beast taming. In the Eastern Region, there has almost never been any mention of Gu Masters.
"Never mind, just wait and see. I really want to see what kind of tricks this Ma Elder can pull."
Qin Xuan said, turning his gaze to the small booklet in front of him.
Looking at the text on the booklet, he frowned slightly.
"Blood Extremes Scripture, interesting."
This booklet was completely different from the low-level Cultivation Technique Ma Elder gave him yesterday.
Yesterday's Cultivation Technique was more akin to self-cultivation, slowly increasing one's strength.
In contrast, this Blood Extremes Scripture appeared extremely overbearing.
"Devouring the blood of others to increase one's strength, and if one can devour Bloodlines, one can also improve one's Physique."
Qin Xuan stroked his chin.
"This thing is somewhat similar to the Primordial Divinity Refining Art."
The Primordial Divinity Refining Art also relies on Cultivation Technique combined with the Refining God Cauldron to absorb the Profound Qi of other Cultivators to improve oneself.
"But it's far inferior to the Primordial Divinity Refining Art. The Primordial Divinity Refining Art can refine the special Physiques possessed by other Cultivators into one's own body."
"This is much more powerful than the Blood Extremes Scripture!"
After glancing at the Blood Extremes Scripture a few times and confirming there was nothing special, Qin Xuan directly threw it aside.
"What are you going to do next? Do you want to directly search Ma Elder's soul?"
Just then, Han Ye transmitted his voice to Qin Xuan.
Hearing this, Qin Xuan shook his head slightly.
"No hurry. Let's see what this Ma Elder wants to do. Perhaps we can get an unexpected surprise from him."
Qin Xuan stroked his chin.
Clearly, this Ma Elder, like Qin Xuan and his companions, had been lurking here all along.
Qin Xuan didn't know how long this Ma Elder had been lurking here.
However, since he had been lurking here for so many years, the information he had gathered must be more than Qin Xuan's.
Given that, it would be better for Qin Xuan to pretend to be controlled by this Ma Elder. This way, perhaps this Ma Elder could help him succeed.
"Forget it, let's look at this Blood Extremes Scripture. Then, cooperating with this Ma Elder, there might be unexpected gains."
Qin Xuan transmitted his voice to Han Ye.
"That's true. Anyway, this Ma Elder's strength is mediocre, so there's nothing to worry about."
"Moreover, this relic has existed here for how many years? After all these years, who knows how many people have been here? They haven't found the entrance to the relic so easily. This entrance is indeed much harder to find than ordinary people imagine. This Ma Elder might be able to lead us to the secret here."
Han Ye said, then reminded Qin Xuan.
"But no matter what, you still need to be careful of this Bai Xiaohu. No matter how I look at it, I feel that this Bai Xiaohu is not simple."
Hearing this, Qin Xuan was stunned, then smiled slightly.
This Bai Xiaohu was certainly not simple.
From the very beginning of their contact, Qin Xuan knew that Bai Xiaohu's origin was extraordinary.
However, to him, this was nothing.
After all, he and Bai Xiaohu were currently in a cooperative relationship.
Bai Xiaohu needed his protection, and he needed the information Bai Xiaohu provided. That was enough.
As for what would happen in the future, who could say?
After they both got what they needed in the future, they might go their separate ways.
Qin Xuan had thought this matter through very clearly from the start.
Taking a deep breath, Qin Xuan sat cross-legged and began to Cultivate.
Before Ma Elder prepared to use him, Qin Xuan was temporarily not going to do anything else.
In the next three days, Ma Elder, after entering his Immortal Cave, never appeared again.
The people of Qixia Sect also did not come to disturb them.
Although he couldn't leave here, based on the Mother Gu, Qin Xuan could roughly determine that Ding Zhen had been searching for something these past few days.
However, it was clear that Ding Zhen hadn't found what he wanted, otherwise he wouldn't have been running around constantly.
Aside from him, those new Disciples had also been running around these past few days.
Unlike Ding Zhen, who secretly snuck out at night, these new Disciples were much more arrogant; their way of doing things was beyond ordinary arrogance.
They dared to run around in broad daylight.
However, the Qixia Sect had no reaction to these people.
At first, Qin Xuan was very surprised, but then he realized.
"It seems that for so many years, the Qixia Sect has been harassed by these chaotic 'undercover agents' every year, so they don't take it seriously themselves."
"Rather than risking exposing these people and completely offending them."
"It's better to pretend not to see them, out of sight, out of mind, and not offend anyone."
Qin Xuan could understand their actions.
"It seems that too many people have come here to search for the relic entrance over the years."
An innocent man is guilty because of his treasure.
The Qixia Sect was in such an awkward position, and then it was targeted by all these surrounding forces.
The more difficult part was that the Qixia Sect was truly not easy to leave here.
After all, once the Qixia Sect suddenly left here,
Some forces would suspect that they had already obtained something from the relic, and that would be truly dangerous.
It was better to pretend not to know anything, to play deaf and dumb, which could maintain the current situation for a longer period.
This was the dilemma of a small Sect.
