299: Chapter 299 The Journey to Find a Master: The Master is in a Panic

The moment the illusion shattered, the surrounding black mist dissipated instantly.

Ye Qingyao stood back by the edge of the wangchuan water. Her face was still a bit pale, but her eyes were incredibly clear. The Dao Rhyme around her body was more condensed than before; clearly, her mental state cultivation had reached a new level.

The several Cultivators behind her were simply dumbfounded, standing in place with their mouths wide open, unable to say a single word.

My God!

She actually forcibly broke the illusion of the wangchuan water?

Don't the ancient texts say that as long as one is trapped by the illusion of wangchuan water, even a True Immortal shouldn't dream of coming out?

This Old Ancestor actually relied on her own will to forcibly shatter the illusion? This is too terrifying, isn't it?

The looks in the eyes of the several people as they watched Ye Qingyao were filled with awe, and they didn't even dare to lift their heads.

Ye Qingyao ignored them. She looked down at her hands, feeling the more fluid Imperial Essence within her body, and a faint smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

The illusion just now was not a tribulation for her, but an Opportunity.

The obsession from her past life that she had always suppressed in the depths of her heart was finally completely let go today.

From now on, she would never be troubled by past events again; her Dao Heart would only be more stable than before.

The wangchuan water was shaken by her Imperial Might, kicking up waves over two meters high. After a long while, it finally calmed down slowly.

Just then, a palm-sized stone tablet floated up from the wangchuan water and landed at Ye Qingyao's feet.

The stone tablet was engraved with dense patterns and carried a faint Dao Rhyme. That Dao Rhyme was so familiar to Ye Qingyao that she couldn't be more familiar with it; it was precisely Su Changge's Qi.

Ye Qingyao's eyes lit up instantly. She quickly bent down to pick up the stone tablet and examined it carefully.

An engraved map was on the stone tablet, marking the exact location of the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins. Beside it were several lines of ancient script, roughly meaning that the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins contained the Legacy of the Ancient War God, as well as secrets related to the Great Dao Origin.

Ye Qingyao's heartbeat accelerated instantly.

Revered Master is indeed in the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins!

The hand she used to hold the stone tablet tightened slightly, and her face was full of excitement.

She had finally found Revered Master's whereabouts.

Seeing the stone tablet in Ye Qingyao's hand, Li Mo's eyes lit up. He plucked up his courage to take a step forward and asked in a low voice.

“Old Ancestor, what is written on this stone tablet? Is there some great Opportunity?”

Ye Qingyao glanced at him, and a faint pressure radiated out.

Li Mo was so scared that he quickly retreated two steps, lowering his head and not daring to speak. Sweat suddenly broke out on his forehead.

“I... I was just asking casually. Please don't be angry, Old Ancestor.”

Ye Qingyao ignored him, lowered her head to put the stone tablet into her Storage Ring, and turned to walk toward the exit of the Secret Realm.

She had no time to delay here now; she had to go to the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins to find Revered Master immediately.

Li Mo and the others looked at Ye Qingyao's back, stunned for a moment, then quickly chased after her.

“Old Ancestor, are you leaving? The wangchuan water hasn't been taken yet? And the styx lotus at the bottom of the abyss, we haven't looked for it yet?”

Ye Qingyao didn't even turn her head, her voice floating over faintly.

“Those things, if you want them, just take them as you please. Don't bother me.”

The several Cultivators were instantly overjoyed, bowing repeatedly toward Ye Qingyao's back.

“Thank you, Old Ancestor! Thank you, Old Ancestor!”

“Old Ancestor's great kindness is something we will never forget!”

They had come in this time originally for the wangchuan water and the styx lotus. Now that the Old Ancestor was leaving all these things to them, it was simply a windfall from heaven.

Ye Qingyao paid no attention to their thanks, her steps fast as she walked toward the entrance.

Her mind was now full of Su Changge's image, and she wished she could fly to the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins and to Revered Master's side immediately.

After taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped and turned to look at a hidden corner beside the wangchuan water.

A palm-sized black lotus was growing there, its petals shimmering with a faint golden light; it was precisely a styx lotus.

Ye Qingyao remembered Revered Master seemed to have said that he liked using lotuses to brew tea.

She walked over, plucked the styx lotus, and carefully placed it into her Storage Ring, a faint smile appearing on her face.

When she sees Revered Master and gives this to him, he should like it, right?

Thinking of the way Su Changge would look when he received the lotus, Ye Qingyao's ears turned slightly red, and her pace quickened even more.

Before long, she reached the entrance of the bronze coffin and pressed her hand onto the lid.

The coffin lid opened with a 'hum', and Ye Qingyao stepped out, her figure disappearing into the entrance.

By the time she returned to the side of the Stagnant Pool in the Black Marsh, the Yin Moon was about to sink below the clouds.

Ye Qingyao did not stay for a moment, directly summoning her Imperial-grade flying Magic Treasure. With a flash of white light, her figure instantly vanished into the horizon, flying toward the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins.

Sitting on the flying Magic Treasure, Ye Qingyao held the stone tablet in her hand, her gaze incredibly determined.

Revered Master, wait for me.

This time, I will not be separated from you again.

Just as Ye Qingyao was rushing toward the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins, Su Changge, inside the Shattered Star Ancient Ruins, was looking at the dozen-meter-tall golden Remnant Soul of the War God's Vanguard in front of him. His face was calm, but his heart was panicking.
