The Devil's Tribulation

Chapter 602: Night Exploration of Treasure Land

Wanbao Pavilion in Licheng of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

In Chu Xuanji's cave, Chu Xuanji introduced the relevant information of the Guan family. Pan Chengfeng thought for a while and asked, "Who auctioned this land before? With such a large piece of land, the original owner should not be a small family, right?"

Chu Xuanji replied: "When it was sent for auction, it was the Miao family who sent it for auction, but the original owner of the land was the He family of the Aristocratic Family Alliance~

The He family suffered a great change that year and had no choice but to sell their property and move out of Licheng."

"Not in Licheng anymore?" Chu Xuanji nodded and said, "Yes, the strange thing is that no one knows where the He family moved to. There are tens of thousands of people in the family, but there is no news at all."

Pan Chengfeng sneered and said, "What's so strange about this? There are only two possibilities. First, the He family hid themselves. As for why they hid themselves, it's hard to say now.

Second, the family was probably wiped out, and it was done by a master. I am more inclined to believe that the He family was wiped out by someone."

Except for Pan Chengfeng, Qian'er, Chu Xuanji and Huang Bing were all shocked.

Qian'er asked hurriedly, "How did Chengfeng determine that the He family was exterminated?"

Pan Chengfeng replied: "Then we need to see if there is any problem with the land."

Pan Chengfeng thought for a moment and said, "Elder Huang, you should go to Wang Lisheng later. You are still the deputy leader of the Loose Cultivator Alliance. Since you have returned to Licheng, it would be inappropriate not to go back."

Huang Bing stood up and bowed, saying, "I will go now. If Alliance Leader Wang asks me, how should I answer?"

Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "Just tell them that Qian'er asked you to come over and ask you to help her with the purchase of the land. I don't think Wang Lisheng will agree to it, so just deal with him like this for now."

Huang Bing nodded and asked, "If the leader asks how many crystal beads the Zhong family is willing to give, how should I answer?"

Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "Just say that the Zhong family will offer 500,000 low-grade spirit stones~"

Huang Bing was startled and asked again quickly. Only after getting an affirmative answer from Pan Chengfeng did he leave the cave.

After Huang Bing left, there were only three of them left in the cave. Pan Chengfeng whispered, "I'll go to that piece of land tonight to see what treasures are there. I think Wang Lisheng and the Miao family conspired to seize the He family's land.

Also, my brother said that more than a hundred years ago, the He family suffered a great change. What was it?"

Chu Xuanji replied: “Three He family’s Spiritualization cultivators suddenly disappeared, including a family head and two elders, all of whom were mid-to-late Spiritualization cultivators.

The He family concealed the truth for a few years at first, but not long after, news came out that the head of the He family and two elders were actually dead, not missing.

Afterwards, the He family began to decline, and soon they sold their property and left Licheng."

Pan Chengfeng nodded and said, "Since we can't find the He family to verify it, we can only investigate it ourselves."

"How do we check?" Chu Xuanji and Qian'er asked together. Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "Since we can't avoid this piece of land, we should naturally start from this piece of land~"

Chu Xuanji frowned and said, “Brother has also seen that piece of land, but didn’t find anything special.

Oh, it seems that the spiritual energy is more concentrated than that nearby, but there is nothing special about it~"

Pan Chengfeng smiled and said, "It won't delay anything if I go and take a look. I'll be there in the evening. Wait for my news~"

At midnight in the evening, Pan Chengfeng, dressed in night clothes, appeared next to a vacant lot in the northwest of Licheng. It was called a vacant lot, but in fact it was a piece of wasteland that could be developed.

There are a few small hills and a medium-sized river passing through here. Pan Chengfeng scanned the area with his spiritual sense and thought to himself, "What a great place! This place has not been developed by anyone. What's going on?"

Although the He family did not develop this place, they also established a family stronghold here, using an area less than one-tenth of the land. I don't know whether they had no money to build it or if they had other ideas.

Pan Chengfeng walked directly into Hejiabao and walked around carefully for a few times. There were actually people inside.

Pan Chengfeng paused for a moment, pricked up his ears, and heard several monks complaining. Monk A said, "It's your turn to drink. This is a rare and fine wine. I think you didn't lose on purpose, did you?"

Monk B said angrily, "You are the one who lost on purpose! This is how I play finger-guessing. Do you want to play more? If not, just drink!"

Monk C said cautiously, "Brothers, we are here to perform duties, so we should not drink too much. If the leader finds out, he will definitely scold us."

Monk A said angrily, "On duty! This is just a shabby house and a few broken mountains. What duty is there?"

Monk B quickly hushed and said, "Are you going to die?! The leader of the alliance asked us to serve here because he trusts us, so don't complain!"

Monk A sneered, "What did we do before? Now, for the sake of the leader, we have been pretending for so many years, but we only earn a few jars of peach wine every day. It's so fucking depressing!"

Monk C smiled and said, "Although my life was a bit hard before, I was free and could do whatever I wanted. Now I have to pretend to be like that in front of others, which does make me a little uncomfortable~"

Pan Chengfeng thought to himself, "What did he do before? Was he an evil cultivator? A cult? It seems that those who can come here to work should be Wang Lisheng's confidants.

A jar of peach blossom wine with a top-grade crystal bead, several Yuanying cultivators can actually drink it every day? There is definitely something wrong here!"

A few Yuanying cultivators complained for a few words, then started drinking big bowls of wine and eating big chunks of meat. Pan Chengfeng quietly left the He Family Castle and came to a small hill.

After walking back and forth on the ground for two or three times, he still couldn't see anything. Finally, he muttered, "It seems that the problem can only be underground. Let's go down and take a look. I have to find a chance to learn the 'earth escape technique', otherwise I will have to dig a hole every time~"

Pan Chengfeng did it right away. He cast several prohibitions and then began to dig a hole with his bare hands. Pan Chengfeng's current physical strength was not inferior to that of a low-grade spiritual treasure.

Before long, Pan Chengfeng dug ten thousand meters deep, and then extended his spiritual awareness down five thousand meters, but still found nothing.

Pan Chengfeng was covered in mud, sitting in the pit and muttering, "Impossible, could it be that my estimate was wrong? It's not underground?

There must be something wrong with this Alliance Leader Wang. This land is definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface. Could it be that he dug too shallow? Forget it, let’s dig a little deeper!”

After digging another ten thousand meters deep, Pan Chengfeng wanted to give up. Although digging a hole was not difficult for him, it was troublesome. It had been three hours and he had dug a twenty thousand meter deep hole but found nothing.

Seeing that dawn was about to break, Pan Chengfeng quickly jumped out of the deep pit and set up a basic small magic array on the pit.

This is because Pan Chengfeng has learned a little bit from Pang Qiaoqiao in the Dry Bone Realm over the past two years, so he can barely set up this lowest level illusion array.

After the arrangement was completed, Pan Chengfeng took a look and said with satisfaction: "It should be no problem to deceive those Yuanying cultivators~

It seems that we can’t find the problem in one or two days, I have to come more often~"

Get to know the surroundings, so you don’t get lost when you come back and have to dig all over again.

Just when Pan Chengfeng was exploring the treasure land at night, Huang Bing also returned to the headquarters of the Loose Cultivator Alliance and met Wang Lisheng.
