Chapter 411 The Old Site of Yaochi
The so-called "Flying Immortals of Yaochi" is actually a unique natural wonder in the ancient site of Yaochi.

Legend has it that it is a remnant from ancient times, a reflection from countless years ago.

Its existence predates the establishment of the Yaochi Holy Land, which is one of the important reasons why the Queen Mother of the West chose to establish her sect here.

According to the original text, once you see this wondrous sight of immortals flying, you are not far from the ancient site of Yaochi.

Ye Fan and the other group members exchanged glances, their faces showing excitement.

Without hesitation, everyone immediately flew out of the star destroyer and landed on the reddish-brown land below.

Lin Yu glanced at the bewildered woman in white, and after a moment's thought, he took her along as well.

Before long, the group landed on the reddish-brown land.

Ji Ziyue opened her eyes wide, curiously looking around at her surroundings, and couldn't help but speak:

"Young man, is this truly the ancient land of Yaochi?"

Although she had never seen the original site of Yaochi Holy Land before its relocation, she had heard some legends about it.

It is said to be a landscape of breathtaking natural beauty, a rare blessed land of immortals.

But now, all they see is desolation.

Apart from the endless expanse of red sand, there was nothing else to be seen.

Ye Fan and the other group members exchanged glances and couldn't help but let out a soft sigh.

They all knew that this was because the husband of the Queen Mother of the West, the Great Accomplished Saint Body from the ancient times, suffered misfortune in his later years due to a curse from the underworld, and voluntarily died at the hands of his wife, the Queen Mother of the West.

Afterwards, the Queen Mother of the West passed away, leaving behind a plan to resurrect herself and her husband using the Nirvana Technique.

However, the underworld at that time had long coveted the corpses of the Western Queen Mother and the Great Accomplished Holy Body.

Just as they were trying their best to open the two coffins, a supreme-level ominous curse surged out, instantly polluting the entire Yaochi Holy Land, which led to the Yaochi Holy Land being basically reduced to ruins.

Recalling the plot of the original work, the group members couldn't help but feel emotional.

However, this matter involves many secrets and is also somewhat related to the Great Emperor Wushi.

Considering all these reasons, Ye Fan and the other group members did not tell Ji Ziyue these secrets, but simply told her with certainty that this was the old site of Yaochi.

In the course of their conversation, Lin Yu had already flown dozens of miles away with the woman in white.

Everyone used their own methods to catch up, but when they arrived at Lin Yu's side, he had already stopped and was gazing thoughtfully at the reddish-brown earth below.

Suddenly, he waved his sleeve, and his magical power surged out like a river, instantly stirring up gusts of wind that peeled away layers of the reddish-brown soil on the ground, sending it flying everywhere.

After the red soil was blown away, what was revealed was an ancient well surrounded by ancient jade stones.

Above the well is a huge rock that emits a slight ripple, constantly absorbing the sunlight projected from the sky.

"found it!"

Ye Fan and the other group members were all immediately impressed.

Lin Yu waved his sleeve and moved the boulder, releasing streaks of silver light that carried everyone into the ancient well.

Looking at the distorted and ever-changing world before her, Ji Ziyue couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. Before she could react, she was teleported to the bottom of the well by the power of space.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling silver light burst forth, illuminating the entire world at the bottom of the well.

Ji Ziyue steadied herself, feeling the muddy ground beneath her feet. She couldn't help but wrinkle her delicate nose, and waved her hand to release several gentle breezes that formed a barely perceptible wind membrane around her body.

This is one of the new wind-based spells that Ji Ziyue has learned.

She possesses the perfect aptitude of all five spiritual roots, is proficient in all five elements of magic, and can even perfectly replicate composite spiritual roots such as lightning and wind by arranging and combining them.

Once the wind membrane was released, isolating it from external interference, Ji Ziyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Similarly, Ye Fan and the other group members also used various methods to unleash their protective abilities.

However, unlike others, they did not dislike the environment at the bottom of the well, but rather knew that this place had been infected with an ominous curse, so they acted cautiously to avoid any problems.

Then, led by Lin Yu, the group proceeded along the riverbed at the bottom of the well.

Before long, the ground beneath our feet began to rise, as if the river ahead was gradually rising.

After traveling several dozen miles, the first rays of sunlight pierced through the darkness, and the group's spirits lifted. They immediately quickened their pace and soon arrived at the exit where the first light of day had broken.

In an instant, the world before my eyes suddenly opened up.

Ji Ziyue was surprised to find that this was actually the entrance to an underground river, but the river had dried up, which was why it had become this muddy tunnel.

The dried-up underground river leads to a lake that has also dried up.

The lakebed had long since dried up and cracked, with many large white fish bones lying on the ground.

A quick glance revealed that many of the fish bones were nearly twenty meters long, indicating that they were powerful spirit fish in life.

Startled by the changes at Yaochi Holy Land, Ji Ziyue dared not linger there any longer. She decisively leaped onto the lake shore with the rest of the group.

But once she stepped ashore, she glanced around and noticed that one of the people around her seemed to be missing.

Ji Ziyue was startled, her scalp tingling. Thinking that something strange had happened again, she quickly turned her gaze to the dried-up lake behind her. There, at the bottom of the lake, she saw Ye Fan engrossed in collecting fish bones.

"..."

Ji Ziyue's face darkened, and she couldn't help but angrily call out to Ye Fan.

This little brat didn't even tell her before he started doing something, which startled her so much that she panicked and thought something had really happened to him!
Meeting Ji Ziyue's gaze, which was a mixture of anger and relief, Ye Fan was somewhat bewildered.

As he collected the fish bones, he casually said, "Don't rush, I'll be right there after I finish collecting them!"

Ji Ziyue frowned slightly, puzzled, and asked, "Why are you collecting this?"

Ye Fan said without changing his expression, "I have a feeling that I will soon get a good dog as a pet, and these fine fish bones are my gift to it!"

"puff--"

Knowing the plot, the group members couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Ji Ziyue blinked, looking at everyone with a blank expression.

"What do you mean?"

"literal meaning!"

Lin Yu replied with a smile, then turned to look at Ye Fan and said, "Alright, bones of this level aren't enough to attract that guy."

"Once we leave the Jade Pool Holy Land, I'll add some more ingredients for you, and I guarantee it will enjoy it!"

What a great feeling!
Ye Fan's eyes lit up, and he immediately put away the fish bones in front of him and leaped onto the lake shore.

Afterwards, the group continued forward, passing through the desolate ancient forest along the lake shore, and climbing over one barren and desolate mountain after another, until they finally saw several pavilions built by humans.

Unfortunately, these pavilions have long since collapsed, and even the few remaining Daoist patterns on them have lost their original value.

However, what Ye Fan and his group members cared about was not these pavilions, but the endless palaces and halls standing on the mountain peaks in front of them.

"Is this the ruins of Yaochi?"

The group members' eyes lit up, and they immediately leaped up and rushed into the ruins, eager to see if any precious treasures remained in the Yaochi Ruins.

Even Ji Ziyue couldn't resist taking a step forward and joining this treasure hunt.

Of the six, only Lin Yu remained suspended outside the hall, calmly watching the backs of the others.

As he expected, not long after, Ye Fan and the group members flew out dejectedly.

"Ruthless! Absolutely ruthless!"

Su Haoming sighed, "The palaces, treasure vaults, scripture pavilions... and even the various medicinal fields and spiritual springs between the palaces have all been looted. Many open spaces even have abrupt pits, clearly indicating that the ground has been dug up entirely, and it is no longer known what originally stood on this land!"

Upon hearing Su Haoming's words, Ye Fan couldn't help but nod in agreement.

This ability to exploit the land is astonishing, even to a professional who specializes in historical sites. It is clearly not the work of an individual, but rather the work of a gang of at least dozens of people!
He Jingfeng turned to Lin Yu and said, "Brother, did you already know?"

"Nonsense!" Lin Yu said without any politeness, "The most famous thing about Yaochi Holy Land is its palace in the sky. Look at all the palaces, which one of them is floating in the air?"

...It’s true!

Everyone looked at each other.

"So, the Jade Pool Immortal Palace that was suspended in the air was also moved away?"

Yun Ye couldn't help but complain, "Who did this? Couldn't they have left something for those who come after them?"

Lin Yu sensed the faint divine energy fluctuations remaining in this place and said thoughtfully, "I guess the vast majority of them were done by the descendants of Yaochi when they moved away, and only a small portion were done by cultivators who accidentally entered this place."

He paused here, then looked at the misty mountains ahead and chuckled softly:

"However, don't be too disappointed. Although those cultivators had the opportunity to enter this place, whether they will leave alive is another matter..."

After saying this, the group continued on their way, crossing several more mountains, and finally arrived at the central area of ​​the Yaochi site.

Compared to the palace complex that had just been looted, the environment here was significantly better.

On the beautiful mountains, palaces stretch endlessly, a masterpiece of nature. Waterfalls cascade down like silver ribbons, crashing into the misty lake below and creating a white spray.

Moreover, the spiritual energy here is much stronger than in other areas.

Upon entering, one can automatically absorb the essence of heaven and earth without even needing to activate any profound techniques.

Upon realizing this, Ji Ziyue's spirits lifted, and she immediately raised her head with bright eyes, gazing at the source of the dense spiritual energy—the misty lake.
"Could this be the sacred lake of Yaochi, or more accurately, the legendary Yaochi?!"

"Not bad!"

Lin Yu smiled and said, "The water of Yaochi is full of spiritual energy. Mortals who drink it can prolong their lives, while cultivators who drink it can slowly improve their physique and accelerate their cultivation of profound arts."

"The reason why the fairies of Yaochi were all so pure and immaculate was because they drank this water and bathed in it year after year."

"So, Little Purple Moon, you've heard all this, are you interested in going for a swim?"
