Chapter 53
There was an enormous hall inside the cave .

Perhaps because the formations had collapsed, the hall looked rather battered right now with cracks on the walls and a lot of debris on the ground .
As soon as he entered it, Gu Qingfeng had released his spiritual sense and discovered that this immortal cave was much bigger and more complex than he had imagined .
Although the formation core was depleted and all the formations had collapsed, the dangers of an immortal cave did not stop this . There were still many mechanisms left .
Soon, Daoist Qing Ning, Mu Zibai, Li Qiandong, Huang Yao, and others had entered the cave too .
“Who is he?” Mu Zibai looked at Gu Qingfeng and asked .
“He is…” Daoist Qing Ning did not know who Gu Qingfeng was and she just explained everything that had happened outside .
Hearing that Gu Qingfeng’s reminder had saved everyone, Mu Zibai was slightly surprised and introduced himself, “I am Mu Zibai of the Redcloud Sect, may I ask what’s your n”
“A passerby . ” Gu Qingfeng stood there quietly and continuing to probe the outline of this immortal cave with his spiritual sense .
A passerby?
Huang Yao said, “Senior brother, this man doesn’t know to differentiate good from bad, why don’t we get rid of him?
Daoist Qing Ning glared at him angrily and shouted, “Huang Yao, what did you say? If it wasn’t for him, all of us would’ve probably died!”

“I… . ” Huang Yao wanted to say something but Mu Zibai waved his hand, indicating that the immortal cave was more important .
Daoist Qing Ning said, “The same old rule applies! We will all act together and share the resources inside this cave . ”
Following the old rule and sticking together was the safest way, because no one knew what kind of dangers they would encounter in the immortal cave . If someone acted alone, although he could gain more resources, there would be no one there to help him if he encountered danger .
“Is everyone alright with that?” Huo Yong and the other people all agreed with Qing Ning, and naturally, Mu Zibai had the same opinion .
However, to their surprise, Gu Qingfeng had other plans, “You guys go together, I’ll just stroll around by myself . ”
Stroll around?
Was an immortal cave the place for someone to just stroll around?
Daoist Qing Ning wondered if she had misheard, “Fellow daoist, you are not coming with us?”
“No . ” Gu Qingfeng gave a simple reply and left .
“Hey, Fellow daoist…fellow daoist!” Daoist Qing Ning shouted after him a few times but Gu Qingfeng had disappeared without a trace .
“Heh, inexperienced and over-confident people like him could be found everywhere . ” Mu Zibai faintly smiled .

Although he had a Colored Foundation and was a little proud of himself, he was well-aware of the dangers in this immortal cave .
“You see, Daoist Qing Ning? If he’s just asking for his death, then let him have it . Hmph! We even offered him to come with us but instead he wants to go on his own and enjoy all the resources for himself . Truly audacious!” Huang Yao sneered .
“Stroll around an immortal cave? Someone as inexperienced as himself is really arrogant . ”
‘Audacious? Over-confident? Inexperienced?’ Looking in the direction where Gu Qingfeng had disappeared Daoist Qing Ning’s brows furrowed deeply .
Although she could not sense any spiritual force aura on Gu Qingfeng’s body and could not understand why did he choose, he did not look like someone over-confident and inexperienced .
How could someone who had a stronger spiritual sense than herself be over-confident and inexperienced discover?
“Qing Ning, there’s no need to care about him . Our time is precious, although I’ve placed a formation on the entrance of the cave, we never know what could happen . We should act quickly . ”
Daoist Qing Ning’s thoughts were stopped by Mu Zibai’s voice, to which she nodded and then led the group deeper into the cave .

The immortal cave was extremely large and resembled a labyrinth .
Gu Qingfeng walked at a fast pace and there was some confusion in his eyes .
He was an expert in digging caves and stealing treasures and he had done these kinds of things in his younger days . Even after he had gone to the Heavenly World he still dug out a lot of immortal dimensions and devil caves .
Therefore, it was safe to say that he understood quite a lot about immortals caves .
Usually the age of the immortal cave could be known by investigating the layout of the immortal cave . By investigating its layout, one could understand what magical ability had been used to open up the immortal cave .
It was also possible to obtain some hints about the owner of the cave .
However, the layout and structure of this cave puzzled Gu Qingfeng . He had dug out a lot of immortal caves but he had never encountered one that was as complex, delicate, and mysterious as this one . This wasn’t an immortal cave that could be opened up by an ordinary cultivator .
Even the immortals from the Heavenly World were not capable of opening up a cave as mysterious as this one .
Gu Qingfeng walked throughout the cave while carefully investigating for some clues .
Although most of the formations inside the immortal cave had already dispersed, there were still quite a lot of damaged formations . Moreover, these formations had different ages . Some of them were set up 2,000 years ago, some of them 3,000 years ago, and there was even a formation that was 5,000 years old .
And these formations had not been set up by just one person, but by many people . Moreover, there were all kinds of formations, some were defensive formations, some were offensive, and some were used for traps .
But all of the formations were definitely used for fighting .
Gu Qingfeng wondered what had happened in this immortal cave before .
He opened a stone door and arrived inside a hall that had a lot of bones and swords on the ground . Because their age was too big, almost all of these magical treasures had been destroyed, but Gu Qingfeng still received all of them inside his storage bag .
He planned on researching them after he got back, and he wanted to refine them if it was possible . If not, then they would be just scrap iron .
He turned around and continued to walk within the immortal cave, then he opened another stone door and arrived in another hall .
This time he had not found any bones or magical treasures, but he encountered Li Qiandong, Huang Yao, and Huo Yong .
They were shocked after seeing Gu Qingfeng and Li Qiandong asked in a serious tone, “How did you get here?”
“By walking . ” Gu Qingfeng smiled and discovered that Daoinst Qing Ning and Mu Zibai were not present, “What about the other two people?”
“My eldest senior brother and Daoist Qing Ning went ahead to explore the cave . ”
“I see . ” Gu Qingfeng looked around and noticed that a mechanism was inside the hall .
“Did you find any treasures?”
Gu Qingfeng shook his head .
Huang Yao became enraged, “I asked you something! What do you mean by shaking your head? I advise you to recognize what’s good for you!”
Gu Qingfeng paid no attention to him and continued to investigate the mechanism on the wall .
“You dare to ignore me! You’re just tired of living!”
