Chapter 1237: Chapter 1116: Divine Sense Fla
This gorge isn’t large, but it’s very long and narrow, with both sides extrely steep, almost vertical. However, many vines and similar vegetation grow on the cliff walls, providing so handholds.
Qingxuan carefully kept his guard up; among everyone, only he knew that this gorge could very well be the strange rats’ nest.
In such a situation, any oversight could be fatal, so he had to be fully alert, cautiously climbing downwards.
The journey surprisingly didn’t present any dangers, not even the strange rats that Qingxuan was always wary of, which puzzled him and made him even more cautious.
Knowing that danger would happen but not knowing when is the most torturous; it’s better to have a battle, even if you can’t win, you can escape, rather than being in constant dread.
The descent is quite rapid; half an hour later, Qingxuan was the first to reach the bottom of the gorge, and the surrounding vegetation had completely changed, becoming exceptionally vibrant.
Hmm?
Qingxuan discovered the corpse of the cultivator who had fallen from above earlier, smashed into a at pancake, limbs scattered everywhere, and the strong stench of blood made everyone’s scalp tingle.
Fortunately, he didn’t fly downward recklessly; otherwise, his fate wouldn’t be much better than this pile of crushed flesh.
Looking at this tragic scene, everyone couldn’t help feeling a sense of shared loss; after all, they were mbers of the sa small sect, unexpected that on the journey they didn’t die to the Xuan Beasts’ fangs and claws but inexplicably died here.
“What a beautiful flower!”
The female cultivator had just co down and hadn’t noticed the pile of their companion’s flesh, her first sight was the strange flowers and herbs in the gorge.
The gorge is an isolated micro-environnt, completely different from the outside; the vegetation inside is not found outside.
Many people had never seen such strangely colored flowers, red like blood, white as snow, blue as the sea, especially the female cultivator, having no resistance to these peculiar plants.
The female cultivator wanted to pick a flower to examine closely, but Qingxuan shouted to stop her rash action.
“Don’t move recklessly. Although these flowers are beautiful, haven’t you noticed? There are so many blooming flowers here, and yet there are no butterflies, bees, or other insects, nor any floral fragrance. Is that normal?”
Qingxuan’s words imdiately raised everyone’s vigilance; indeed, any flower and plant, when blooming, will emit its fragrance, yet the gorge is filled with flowers, seemingly fake, with no scent at all—this is definitely abnormal.
“There’s a strange rat!”
At this mont, a sharp-eyed disciple from the Xiao family suddenly exclaid, pointing towards the pile of flesh, with a disgusted face.
Qingxuan’s heart skipped a beat, quickly glancing over, his peripheral vision caught a glimpse of a gray-brown strange rat swiftly darting into the vines.
“Everyone must be extrely careful, not a mont of laxity; otherwise, it’s easy for sothing to catch you off guard.”
Qingxuan scanned everyone and continued: “This place is very strange; everyone’s powers are suppressed to an extrely low point; be careful!”
Having said that, Qingxuan cautiously walked along the central area of the gorge, his heart growing more excited as he felt a certain ntal call urging him forward.
“Squeaky squeak!”
As the group moved, thousands upon thousands of strange rats suddenly surged out from so corner, pouncing fiercely on the group, their white sharp teeth and wicked eyes sending chills down everyone’s spine.
“Finally here!”
Facing the rat attack, Qingxuan felt relieved instead of tense; the endless waiting was finally over.
“Vile creatures, seeking death!”
Qingxuan shouted loudly, using the Celestial asuring Scale to slice and slam, not a single strange rat could approach him, all of them directly smashed or flung away.
Though others’ powers were heavily suppressed, their physical strength could still be used, especially so who could summon a small amount of True Yuan, fighting ferociously.
Montarily, the group clashed with these creatures—not quite Xuan Beasts, yet extrely powerful strange rats—in an intense battle.
The strange rats were no different from ordinary ones but outnumbered them vastly, nearly limitless, fearless of death, montarily causing chaos among the group.
“Everyone, don’t fall into disarray; form a circle with backs inward to minimize unexpected threats!”
Qingxuan, truly a genius, quickly devised a strategy; unable to back up against the cliff, they could only form a circle to fend off the strange rats.
Though fearless, the strange rats were far from humans in comparison, soon being repelled, leaving a field of corpses.
This wave of attacks made many aware of the importance of physical strength, even Qingxuan felt exhausted; his body was still among the best in the group.
When a cultivator’s cultivation is completely suppressed, there isn’t much difference from ordinary people, they feel fatigue and hunger.
However, here no one dared to eat anything, including the rat at; who knows what the rats have been feeding on to grow so large?
After a brief rest, Qingxuan continued to lead the group forward. As they walked, everyone began to feel a psychological vibration, clearly feeling oppressed despite the absence of any visible threat around them.
Hmm?
At this mont, Qingxuan suddenly noticed a grave not far away and was taken aback.
This is not the outside world, but a Secret Realm, where graves shouldn’t exist.
“Perhaps this is not a grave, but just a pile of stones resembling one.”
Qingxuan comforted himself this way.
“Huh, why does this look so much like a grave?”
Not only Qingxuan noticed, but others did too, expressing their surprise.
Qingxuan remained silent because, at this mont, he couldn’t determine what exactly this grave-like thing was; he would only know for sure upon closer inspection.
Feng Shui principles exist not only on Earth but here as well, with specific places suited for burial and others not, and the research in the Xuan Realm is even more profound.
Based on his limited knowledge, Qingxuan believed this place was not suitable for burial, but in the Secret Realm, anything can happen, so he wasn’t sure.
Soon, the group reached the stone pile resembling a grave, and Qingxuan found a stele about half a ter in front of it. However, he couldn’t understand any of the words on it.
But not understanding the characters didn’t an he couldn’t figure out what this place was, for there was a fla burning atop the stele, sohow not extinguishing without any fuel, and it was unclear how long it had been burning.
Qingxuan was able to directly communicate with this fla, and he fully understood that the faint, almost intangible summoning power was emitted by this fla.
This was a fla of Divine Sense, a very peculiar fla that could nurture Divine Sense, enhance its quality, and more importantly, allow for unlimited training of Divine Sense, enabling cultivation even unconsciously.
For a cultivator practicing Divine Sense attacks, this was undoubtedly a treasure among treasures, even more useful than the Dark Immortal Gold Ye Fan obtained previously.
At this point, other cultivators also noticed this Divine Sense Fla, all coveting it, yet knowing it was beyond their reach and they couldn’t compete with Qingxuan.
Divine Sense Flas offer imnse benefits to a cultivator, whether or not they have practiced any martial arts for Divine Sense attacks, as they can refine one’s Divine Sense.
For any cultivator, this thing was priceless!
“Haha… I am truly blessed by the heavens!”
Qingxuan, elated, moved his mind towards the fla, using his Divine Sense to draw it into his sea of consciousness, the best thod to use and store the Divine Sense Fla.
However—
At this mont, a sudden change occurred!
A huge red strange rat unexpectedly appeared, blood-red light shooting from its eyes, attacking Qingxuan to prevent him from obtaining the Divine Sense Fla.
Qingxuan was shocked. Though he could forcibly take it, he understood that doing so would inflict irreparable damage on him, and relying on others here was hopeless since so of their Divine Senses were unstable, utterly incapable of dealing with attacks on his level.
In a flash, Qingxuan made a decision to abandon the acquisition of the Divine Sense Fla and fully confront this despicable giant rat.
Boom!
In an instant, Qingxuan’s divine consciousness collided with that of the giant rat, creating an invisible shockwave that sent disciples of smaller sects nearby flying.
Their powers were suppressed here, but the strength of Divine Sense wasn’t heavily restrained, aning Qingxuan could still unleash formidable power.
The explosive energy from the clash between Qingxuan’s divine sense and the red giant rat’s spread outward, seemingly attracted towards the Divine Sense Fla, fueling it to burn fiercely like a supportive material.
“Hiss…”
Everyone drew in a sharp breath, astonished that Qingxuan could still exhibit such formidable attack power in this situation, which seed utterly unbelievable to them.
They were aware that all their powers had been severely suppressed, barely any stronger than ordinary humans at this point.
At this point, they were all puzzled—this strange rat must be the guardian of the Divine Sense Fla, ensuring it wasn’t taken away.
Yet, this left so questions unexplained: since this giant rat also required the Divine Sense Fla, why hadn’t it claid it for itself?
