Five Elements Sacred Secret

Chapter 352 Same as above, level 3

"What are you looking at?" Mu Xiaofeng looked at Mu Dingyang with a hint of displeasure on his face and asked.

Mu Dingyang looked at Mu Xiaofeng fearlessly, with curiosity glittering in his eyes, and said, "You are quite skilled in this set of moves. Have you done a lot of murders and robberies?"

Mu Xiaofeng was furious. How dare this guy question him like that? He couldn't help but glance at Mu Dingyang, thinking, this guy really doesn't know what's good for him. He just saved his life, but now he's doubting me!

"What? Do you want to stand up for justice again?" Mu Xiaofeng responded coldly.

Mu Dingyang straightened up and said righteously, "I, Mu Dingyang, specialize in dealing with injustices."

Mu Xiaofeng couldn't help but find it a little funny. This kid does have a strong sense of justice, but he also needs to have enough strength! With his current cultivation, he still wants to take care of those unfair things?

"If you want to take care of unfair things, you need to have some cultivation. Even with this, you still take care of unfair things?" Mu Xiaofeng retorted with a hint of sarcasm.

Mu Dingyang was hit hard by these words. He immediately lowered his head, with a trace of frustration and unwillingness on his face.

Seeing this, Mu Xiaofeng softened his tone a little and asked, "What happened this time?" He didn't really have any aversion to Mu Dingyang, he was just joking.

"Shi Saque was trying to rob people on the road here, and I encountered him. I couldn't help but stand up again. As a result, the man saw that their attention was on me, so he ran away. I'm the only one left here." Mu Dingyang said helplessly.

"It's like this now, are you going to keep this character?" Mu Xiaofeng asked, and in his heart he had more admiration for Mu Dingyang. After all, if it were him, he would definitely not be able to do this.

"What's the big deal? I'm not asking for anything in return." Mu Dingyang replied disapprovingly.

Mu Xiaofeng glanced at Mu Dingyang and warned him, "You should learn your lesson in the future and don't be so reckless again."

"I understand." This time, Mu Dingyang didn't say anything stubborn, but agreed honestly. He knew that Mu Xiaofeng was doing this for his own good.

Seeing that Mu Dingyang heard what he said, Mu Xiaofeng was ready to leave. He originally just wanted to remind Mu Dingyang and didn't intend to take him with him. After all, he just saw that he had said a word for him before, so he helped him when he saw that he was in danger.

"I'm going to the third floor, what about you?" Mu Xiaofeng asked tentatively, without thinking of taking Mu Dingyang with him.

"Let me follow you. I didn't expect your cultivation to be so strong. I was too nosy in Pingdingshan before." Mu Dingyang said this loudly at the beginning, and his voice became smaller and smaller as time went on.

Mu Dingyang wanted to follow him, but Mu Xiaofeng didn't think much about it. "It's up to you. If you want to follow me, just follow me." Mu Xiaofeng said casually, and then prepared to continue to move south. Mu Xiaofeng walked forward steadily, and Mu Dingyang followed closely behind him as he said, but Mu Xiaofeng didn't take it to heart.

The two of them traveled southwards and met many cultivators along the way. However, most of the spiritual herbs growing in these places were still low-level ones, which could not arouse much interest for Mu Xiaofeng now. He glanced at these spiritual herbs and could not help but feel a little disappointed. Looking back at Mu Dingyang who was far behind, Mu Xiaofeng decided to let him go with him.

"Aren't you interested in these spiritual herbs?" Mu Xiaofeng asked.

Mu Dingyang asked back: "I'm not an alchemist, why would I be interested in spiritual herbs?"

Mu Xiaofeng was indeed a little curious, and asked, "If that's the case, then why did you come here? You know, this area is famous for its abundant spiritual herbs."

"There are not only spiritual herbs here, but also relics. Besides these, there are also some more precious treasures." Mu Dingyang replied.

"Do you know a lot about this place?" Mu Xiaofeng heard the tone in Mu Dingyang's words as if he knew a lot about this place, so he asked.

Mu Dingyang chuckled, looked around, and said, "It's actually not that bad. Someone from my family came here before. But times have changed, and our family has declined a lot. Don't be afraid of being laughed at. Some time ago, our house was visited by a thief. This person was in cahoots with Wu Tianlu. Wu Tianlu approached me at first, but later I found out that he was just trying to deceive me. It was because my family was once prosperous that people called me Master Mu, but I know that I am no longer a master."

After Mu Dingyang finished speaking, he sighed somewhat dejectedly. However, his words surprised Mu Xiaofeng. Could it be that the painting he bought for himself was seen at Mu Dingyang's house?

"Then why are you going up with me instead of looking for ruins?" Mu Xiaofeng asked.

"Alas, it is precisely because these ruins are on the upper level that I also want to go up. However, with my level of cultivation, I am afraid I can't go up." Mu Dingyang was a little depressed.

"Huh? Can't go up?" Mu Xiaofeng was a little curious. Wouldn't it be possible to just go up the stairs directly? After all, Mu Dingyang had the cultivation level of a virtual god.

“Brother, you don’t know that the higher you go in the Purple Flame Heart Cave, the stronger the suppressing force of the stairs becomes, so at the end you can’t withstand the suppressing force at all. My ancestor was promoted to Chengding by chance here, so he reached a certain level and obtained some treasures in the ruins. But not long after he came back, my ancestor died inexplicably for some unknown reason, and there was no further news after that.” Mu Dingyang explained.

This staircase also has a suppressive force. Mu Xiaofeng didn't feel any force when he just came up.

"Then with your cultivation level, how many levels can you reach?" Mu Xiaofeng asked.

"According to the notes left by my ancestors, this Purple Flame Heart Cave has nine floors. Corresponding to the nine realms, I can only reach the sixth floor at most. However, there are relics only above the seventh floor, and the floors below the sixth are said to be all spiritual herbs, with the sixth floor mostly having some high-level and precious spiritual herbs. There are relics only above the seventh floor, and my ancestor has only reached the first seven floors because he has just entered the Chengding realm." Mu Dingyang replied.

Mu Xiaofeng suddenly realized that this was the case. Mu Dingyang wanted to enter the seventh floor, but the existence of the ruins would generally be much more beneficial to him. After all, treasures can be used by oneself, but if you don't know how to make pills, you can only exchange spiritual herbs for spiritual stones. Ruins mean the possibility of changing your destiny.
