Chapter 248 248. Noble
After searching for a whole day, they basically turned the entire mountain upside down, but they still couldn't find the cause of the earthquake.

However, someone suddenly discovered that there were a large number of caves of unknown depth near Wanling Villa!

This discovery immediately alarmed many people, and there were all kinds of speculations for a while. Among them, the speculation that convinced most people was that there might be an ancient treasure trove under the mountain.

The previous vibration, caused by the earthquake next door, moved the earth's crust here, causing the underground treasure cave to emerge.

Originally, the first person who discovered the cave wanted to conceal its existence. After all, anyone with a little bit of insight would know that there is a high probability that there are good things underneath, and no one wants to be left with a piece of the spoils.

For this reason, the person who discovered the first cave deliberately covered it with leaves, branches and other things.

I have to say, this method is really insidious.

After all, if such a hole of unknown depth is really covered up, it would be like a trap. It is easy for an unsuspecting person to accidentally step on it and fall directly into it.

But I don’t know whether these people didn’t think about this or they simply didn’t care about the safety of others, but they still did it.

But they didn't expect that there was more than one similar cave on this mountain. So although they had covered up the first cave, they couldn't cover up the second, third, fourth...

As more and more holes were discovered, now everyone knew about it!
Now no one thought about looking for the source of the earthquake, because everyone's attention was on the cave below where the treasure was suspected to be.

Just when everyone was getting ready to make a move, the people from Xuanfang Sect who had been missing for a long time finally came out.

There were a total of twelve people from the Xuan Fang Sect, two of whom Jin Jiu knew, one was Yuan Qing and the other was Lin Cai. Lin Cai was standing in the second row of the Xuan Fang Sect team, while the leader of the Xuan Fang Sect team was an old lady who looked older.

"The Metaphysics Exchange Conference was organized by my Xuanfang Sect. Since something happened at the Metaphysics Exchange Conference, my Xuanfang Sect has the obligation to be responsible. Before coming here, I have already divined what happened this time. This trip is a mixture of good and bad luck, but if a noble person participates, then danger can be averted."

When the old lady said this, her eyes swept across the audience. Her eyes were full of indifference, without any other emotions.

This made everyone wonder what she wanted to express for a moment.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "Master Fuyun, what do you mean by this? Why don't you explain it in detail?"

Taoist Master Fuyun glanced at the person who was speaking, and then said, "Everyone present here is capable. There is no point in lying. I can tell you directly that there is indeed a strange relic below, and the reason why this year's Metaphysics Exchange Conference was chosen to be held here is precisely because of the relic below."

When these words were spoken, although everyone was shocked, no one doubted what Taoist Master Fuyun said.

Because there is no need for the Xuanfang Sect to lie.

Moreover, it is well known that the location of each Metaphysics Exchange Conference is unique.

For example, the first Metaphysics Exchange Conference was also held in a mountain villa. There were hot springs on the mountain range where the villa was located. Two days after the Metaphysics Exchange Conference ended, the Xuanfang Sect invited everyone to take a hot spring bath.

Many people refused at that time. After all, although Xuanfang Sect had brought out many treasures at the Metaphysics Exchange Conference, no one took Xuanfang Sect seriously at that time, and people like them would not waste time on such meaningless things. So many people left on the day after the Metaphysics Exchange Conference ended. However, after leaving, all of these people regretted it.

This is because this hot spring is not an ordinary hot spring, it is more like the legendary spring that can temper muscles and bones.

There were not many springs at that time, only seven in total, but there were more than three thousand people participating in the metaphysics exchange conference. Fortunately, there were less than three hundred people who stayed to enjoy the hot springs, so it was not crowded.

In the end, all the 300 people who stayed behind left satisfied. After the news spread, some people didn't believe it at first, until the elders of Jianxingmen and Baihemen personally admitted it, and then everyone regretted it.

It was precisely because of this incident that at the end of the Second Metaphysics Exchange Conference, the Xuan Fang Sect invited everyone to have a picnic together. Although many people still felt puzzled, less than half of them left.

However, the small half of people who left eventually regretted their decision, because after the picnic, news came out that the meals prepared by Xuanfang Sect for everyone were all top-notch spiritual food.

Simply put, it is food with spiritual energy.

Since then, starting from the third Metaphysics Exchange Conference, everyone has become accustomed to the Xuanfang Sect preparing some small surprises for everyone after the Metaphysics Exchange Conference.

Although no one knew why the Xuan Fang Sect would be so foolish as to take out so many treasures and give them to everyone for free use, after all, everyone was getting them for free, so naturally no one would have any objections.

Therefore, when Taoist Master Fuyun said that they had known about the existence of this cave for a long time and that there was a relic underneath, no one doubted it... Of course, there might be a very small number of people who were not aware of the situation and would have doubts, but they would certainly not be stupid enough to say it out loud.

Anyone who has participated in a metaphysics exchange conference at least once before believes that the surprise of this session should be the ruins below.

"According to the original plan, our Xuanfang Sect will look for the noble person who can help us turn danger into safety at this Metaphysics Exchange Conference. If we find him and he is willing to help, we will naturally take everyone to the bottom to have a glimpse after the Metaphysics Exchange Conference."

Everyone became excited upon hearing this.

Many people immediately asked, "So can we go down?"

"Since Taoist Master Fuyun has said that there are ruins underneath, why don't we go down and take a look? I have lived for so long and have never seen a ruin!"

"Are you stupid or deaf? Didn't you hear Taoist Fuyun say that you must have a noble person to go down?"

When everyone heard this, their eyes fell on Taoist Fuyun again.

Taoist Master Fuyun stopped talking. Lin Cai, who was beside Taoist Master Fuyun, stepped forward and said, "We have predicted in advance that the ruins here will automatically appear in a hundred years. But now the time has not come yet, and it suddenly appeared. This is enough to show that something is wrong below."

"We were originally planning to lead the ruins out after the Metaphysics Exchange Conference ended... Besides, we haven't found the noble person yet."

After these words were spoken, everyone's faces visibly darkened.
