69: The former site of the Su family, a mysterious altar

"Huff."

"That was close."

In Huaixuan City, Qin Tian put away the sound transmission jade, his brow relaxing.

"Senior Brother, how are Junior Sister and the others?"

"Rest assured, they are fine." Qin Tian said with a smile, "That monster has already been exterminated, and Third Junior Sister's injuries are not serious."

"Once Third Junior Sister recovers, Revered Master will bring them to Huaixuan City to rendezvous with us."

Upon hearing this, Su Ningying breathed a sigh of relief, "Senior Brother, what are Third Junior Sister and Fourth Junior Sister coming here for?"

"Probably just for fun..." Qin Tian smiled, "After all, they haven't really left the Dao Seeking Immortal Sect much, so they wouldn't pass up a rare opportunity to come out."

It definitely wasn't as simple as just for fun!

The corners of Su Ningying's lips twitched slightly, and she thought to herself: "They are nine times out of ten here to keep watch..."

"Detestable, is this Senior Sister not worthy of trust?"

"Besides, the Materials for the Obedience Potion have already been used up... how could it be so easy to gather them all again..."

"Hmph~ Two idiots!"

Qin Tian put away the sound transmission jade and looked at Senior Hua, frowning as he said: "Senior Hua, how come I don't remember ever proposing marriage to you?"

Su Ningying suddenly looked up, staring at Senior Hua in disbelief.

Su Zhirou opened her mouth, "Pro... propose marriage?"

"Oh my!"

"This..."

Senior Hua turned her head away, her eyes darting around evasively.

"The result is the same anyway. Boys should be more proactive; I am just helping you..."

Proactive my foot!

Qin Tian was speechless.

This Senior Hua, she just says whatever comes to her mind!

How is she anything like a Senior!

"My Little Qiyue is full of integrity and has a beautiful face, and she is of a similar age to you. You won't be at a disadvantage... why not consider it...?"

Su Ningying jumped up!

"No consideration!!"

"Senior Brother, I want to go back and take a look at the Su Family, will you accompany me?"

Without waiting for Qin Tian to speak, Su Ningying pulled him and ran out.

Senior Hua sighed softly.

"Little Qiyue, it seems you have quite a few rivals..."

"However, this kid is mysterious. He can cause such a big commotion while only in the Grotto-Heaven Realm; perhaps in the future, he can overturn the long-unchanging structure of the Ancient Immortal world."

"And he is handsome, pleasing to the eye..."

"He is also Xiao Xi's disciple; his background is also suitable!"

"This marriage must succeed. Little Qiyue, oh Little Qiyue, no matter how many rivals you have, you must win him over for me!"

The sound transmission jade flashed, Senior Hua issued an order, and then her figure flickered, secretly guarding behind Qin Tian...

...

North of Huaixuan City.

Unlike other places, this area remained a ruin.

It was not that the King of Yan did not want to develop this land, but after the incident with the Su Family, You Ruoli had once ordered a total Ban(sealing) and strict investigation of the ten-mile radius around the Su Family's main residence.

Later, the investigation fizzled out, but the sealing order was never lifted.

The old accounts of the Su Family were overgrown with weeds and had long since been abandoned.

However, this also provided much convenience for Qin Tian.

If it had been renovated and rebuilt, it would have been even harder to find traces.

heaven and earth map, activate!

He chanted silently in his heart, and all the details of the Su Family's old site were clearly imprinted within it...

Beside him, Su Zhirou looked at the ruins before her, her body trembling, and tears kept falling from her reddened eyes, unable to stop.

"Aunt... is this the Su Family..." Su Ningying murmured.

This extremely unfamiliar place before her should have been the place of her birth...

She was not like Su Zhirou, who had a strong sense of belonging here, but she could not help but feel a little sadness in her heart.

"Ningying, that is the Su Family's main residence, and it is also where your parents were married..."

"Over there is the martial arts training ground, where several hundred-pound giant stones were placed. The Su Family lineage placed great importance on physical fitness and held a stone-lifting competition for the younger generation every year..."

"And over there, that is the medicine room and the warehouse..."

Su Zhirou introduced them one by one, and Su Ningying listened patiently.

However, Qin Tian frowned.

Every brick and tile of the Su Family's old site was extremely clear; on the surface, it was very ordinary, but under the heaven and earth map, all details were infinitely magnified.

He finally discovered something amiss.

On those broken rock pillars and shattered bricks and tiles, there were many residual Formation patterns.

At first glance, they were unremarkable and no different from ordinary defensive Formations.

But after marking them completely, Qin Tian discovered that these Formation patterns did not all originate from the same Formation; a small portion was nested within the defensive Formation, very hidden and easily confused.

If not for the Divine Thought marking, it would have been very difficult for Qin Tian to discover them.

"Disperse."

The marks belonging to the defensive Formation patterns disappeared.

Only the fragmented, unique, and mysterious patterns remained.

Qin Tian patiently found them one by one and then pieced them all together...

"Senior Hua, what kind of Formation is this?"

Senior Hua's voice transmission sounded in his mind, "It is a small, dilapidated teleportation Formation, capable of accommodating at most ten people to pass through."

"Embedding a teleportation Formation within a defensive Formation, what is the purpose of this?" Qin Tian murmured, looking at Su Zhirou.

"Fairy Su, does the Su Family have a large-scale teleportation Formation for evacuation?"

Su Zhirou came back to her senses and nodded, "There is a teleportation Formation under the ancestral shrine that can accommodate a thousand people, which can only be activated in the event of an existential threat to the clan."

"Underground?"

Qin Tian's eyes lit up.

His Divine Thought probed underground.

Immediately, his Divine Thought was consumed rapidly, more than twice as fast as before.

Fortunately, he finally discovered the dilapidated large-scale teleportation Formation under the ancestral shrine.

Looking again at this one before him.

Whether in terms of transmission distance or capacity, it could not be compared to that large Formation.

In other words, this small teleportation Formation was not used for evacuation; it was very likely a passageway leading to a secret place of the Su Family.

This teleportation Formation was engraved within the defensive Formation; one reason was for concealment, and the second was that if the defensive Formation were destroyed, this teleportation Formation would perish along with it, so no one would be able to find the Su Family's secret place.

That secret place was nine times out of ten deep underground, and it was guarded by some strange object that could isolate Divine Thought; only in this way could it avoid You Ruoli's investigation.

Perhaps, by going there, it would be possible to know why the Su Family perished, and also to know what kind of relationship the Su Family had with the alien races!

Thinking of this, Qin Tian thought silently:

"System, can this teleportation Formation be repaired?"

[Replying to the Host, the fate reversal points mall has Restoration Talismans.]

"How much?"

[3000 fate reversal points each.]

"Can it be cheaper?" Qin Tian looked at the few hundred fate reversal points he had left and sighed heavily.

[Does the Host want to try a lucky draw?]

"Can it drop?" Qin Tian's eyes lit up.

"Draw!"

[Congratulations to the Host, good fortune has arrived, you have obtained 1x Restoration Talisman.]

"Good System, you are sensible!"

Qin Tian flipped his palm, and a silver-white Talisman flashed.

Senior Hua: "?"

"What kind of Talisman is this, that this Fairy has never seen it before?"

The Restoration Talisman ignited, and the dilapidated teleportation Formation gradually returned to its original state.

Senior Hua opened her eyes wide, her face full of disbelief.

"He is also proficient in Talisman and Formation arts?"

At the very least, Senior Hua was completely unable to repair that teleportation Formation...

Before long, the teleportation Formation lit up.

Su Zhirou was a bit surprised, "Is this Formation from my Su Family?"

Qin Tian smiled, "Let's go, we'll know once we go inside."

"I'll go in first."

Senior Hua appeared, stepped into it, and disappeared.

Ten breaths later, the sound transmission jade flashed, and Qin Tian and the others followed and stepped in.

With a dizzying sensation, the group arrived in a sealed space.

Ghost fires ignited, illuminating the surroundings.

Qin Tian raised his eyes, and a huge dark red altar firmly attracted his gaze...
