Is this where the Ghost Sect is located?
Austin murmured as he looked into the deep valley enveloped in cold and humid mist. He regained his senses after killing the two men and two women who attacked him.
"Austin, there may be the treasure of the Ghost Sect down there. How about going in and searching around?"
Violet proposed with hopeful smile and eager eyes.
"The ghosts are probably the greatest threats here, but we can deal with them easily. That should not be a problem."
Austin also itched to have a go.
"Well, now that we're here, there's no reason to back down. Let's go inside and have a look."
The two of them carefully started to move down the valley. They were not going to let go of a chance to get the treasure.
Along the way, Austin and Violet came across some arrays, but their power had been greatly reduced. They had been there for a long time and that had lessened their impact.
On the other hand, both Austin and Violet had very strong spiritual sense. While they moved forward, they used their spiritual sense to constantly feel the fluctuation in the vital energy in the space ahead. Whenever they felt that there was something wrong, they would quickly take a detour. In this manner, they were able to avoid many arrays that lay in their way.
At times, due to a little misjudgment, they were caught up in some arrays, but they overcame them easily and were finally able to clear the path with their joint efforts.
In Austin's Space Ring, there were thousands of superior vital energy crystals which could absorb vital energy directly, so he didn't need to worry about the exhaustion of his vital energy.
Although they advanced very slowly, they met no other obstacle and were able to move on unhurt.
A day later, the two were able to enter the interior of the Ghost Sect. When they looked around, they saw many broken walls and rubble lying across. Some of them were probably parts of terraced buildings which now lay destroyed.
Austin wanted to look around and see if he could find something valuable in the ruins, but soon he gave up the idea. It was unrealistic to expect something in all those ruins that lay before them.
Ghost Valley had existed there for a long time. Over the years, countless cultivators had rushed to this place looking for treasure. Among them only the strong ones had been able to set foot in the interior. Therefore, even if there was anything of value or to be treasured, it must have been taken away.
Austin and Violet stood amid broken roofs and toppled walls. They looked at the destroyed buildings and the debris around. This was the state of the Ghost Sect.
They looked around but there was no trace of the legendary treasure. Probably, there was no treasure at all. Maybe it was an unrealistic story or myth created by the cultivators over the years.
Yet, it was also possible that the treasure was hidden in a concealed place in the ruins. A treasure wouldn't be so easily accessible or readily visible. It would be somewhere where it was safe and unreachable.
