The young man suddenly thought of this doubt, and the strength to resist emerged from nowhere. He struggled to stand up and questioned Chen Yun.

"Hmph. Stop being so self-righteous. If I didn't have some questions to ask you, I wouldn't have wasted a Hao Yuan Pill on you."

"You were able to save your life and survive temporarily, all thanks to the treasure you wore around your neck that temporarily blocked some of the poisonous gas."

"Otherwise the poison will invade your heart, and even elixirs and magic medicines will not be able to restore you."

Chen Yun's face was gloomy and he spoke mercilessly.

"Have you touched this object?"

When the young man heard Chen Yun mention the silver key, he realized the item he treasured as much as his life.

I didn't know when I was exposed. I was shocked for a moment, but I calmed down temporarily.

"I am also curious about this. A cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage was poisoned but did not die immediately. Naturally, I want to find out the reason."

"However, the Haoyuan Pill can only suppress the poison temporarily. After one day, the poison will attack your heart again. You will still die."

Chen Yun responded calmly.

Feng Yue answered without any hesitation:
"If we talk about 'that' Ningzhong, it must be the Guanning Feng family. In the Guanning Prefecture, they are also a force that cannot be ignored."

Chen Yun narrowed his eyes slightly and asked curiously, "Guan Ning Prefecture? Which prefecture is this?"

Feng Yue looked puzzled and explained:

"There are indeed many cities named 'Guan Ning' in the territory of Da Jin. However, in terms of popularity and strength, only the Ningzhong Feng family in Guan Ning Prefecture in Liaozhou is the most famous."

Chen Yun nodded his head in understanding, seemingly not caring at all, and then asked:
"By the way, how did you get the 'Lingxia Pei' you just mentioned? What kind of historical traces are behind it?"

Feng Yue seemed quite surprised. He answered frankly:
"This Lingxia pendant is a symbol passed down by my father to our Feng family. May I ask why you suddenly became interested in it?"

Chen Yun looked at the young man with doubt and asked questioningly:

"Could it be that everyone in your Feng family holds a top-level magic weapon as a token of trust?"

Feng Yue shook his head slightly and responded seriously:
"As far as I know, there are only three or four similar tokens in our Feng family. Only direct descendants can obtain this treasure."

Chen Yun understood what he meant and immediately realized that Feng Yue's position in the Feng family was not simple, so he followed up on the other party's topic and asked:
"So, your position in the Feng family must be very important."

At this moment, Feng Yue's mouth twitched, and a trace of pain flashed in his eyes:
"Yes, I am the eldest grandson of the Feng family. If everything goes well, I will inherit the Feng family's responsibilities in the next few decades."

After listening to Feng Yue's story, Chen Yun immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

It seems that the Feng family may be in some kind of predicament at the moment, or even the entire family may have encountered some major event.

Chen Yun did not delve into matters that had nothing to do with him. Instead, he focused his attention on the young man and directly asked the question that concerned him the most:
"What is the relationship between your Feng family and the Great Jin Buddhist Sect?"

"I hope you won't tell me you know nothing about this. Since it is possible to use the Buddhist spiritual light to perform this blessing, there must be some connection between the two."

Facing Chen Yun's questioning, Feng Yue hesitated for a moment and then answered truthfully:
"In fact, there is indeed some connection between the Buddhist sect and our Feng family."

"It is said that one of the ancestors of the Feng family was a lay disciple of Qianguang Temple, and Qianguang Temple is a branch of the Buddhist giant Jinluo Sect."

"Therefore, the Feng family practiced Buddhist techniques when they were first founded."

"However, since Qianguang Temple moved away from Liaozhou hundreds of years ago and relocated to the location of its sect, we Feng family disciples have turned to studying Confucianism."

After hearing this, Chen Yun suddenly felt happy. Although he didn't know what Qianguang Temple was, he already knew the name of Jinluo Sect.

This sect is one of the four major factions of Buddhism in Dajin.

From this we can see that the Feng family practiced the purest Buddhist techniques in the past.

Then, Chen Yun asked again: "Do you know these Buddhist secrets?"

Feng Yue hesitated for a moment and gave the answer:
"In fact, I have no interest in Buddhist secrets, so I have never tried to memorize them. However, there is no doubt that the Feng family has preserved the complete training instructions for these techniques."

After thinking it over and over again, Feng Yue finally realized that this person obviously came here to obtain the secret techniques of Buddhism, and he could not hide his surprise.

Because he knew very well that the power of the Buddhist sect's cultivation system became immeasurable in the later stages, but the progress of cultivation was extremely slow and the conditions were extremely harsh, so it was notorious in the Dajin cultivation world.

Therefore, there are very few people who dare to voluntarily practice the secret techniques of Buddhism.

The sarira is a treasure unique to the Buddhist world, and not all practitioners can possess it.

Some are revealed in the foundation-building stage, while others require reaching the spirit-transforming stage before they can be cultivated into shape.

The rules and regulations are difficult to grasp, and for non-Buddhist practitioners, they are undoubtedly quite mysterious and strange.

However, it is worth noting that many of the profound Buddhist techniques and powerful supernatural powers can only be studied or demonstrated by possessing relics.

Because of this, even if the monks of the sects are far ahead of the Buddhist disciples who have successfully cultivated the relics, they still feel awe and remain vigilant.

Chen Yun relaxed and nodded in agreement, then calmly asked Feng Yue the same question: "Relics? Great-grandfather did cultivate such spiritual objects."

"However, due to his limited talents in other aspects, he was unable to break through to the Spiritual Transformation Realm and became discouraged, which led to the establishment of the Ningzhong Feng Family."

Feng Yue heard the answer and responded with a slight frown.

Chen Yun couldn't help but feel more energetic. He guessed that maybe he didn't have to go deep into Jin State to have a chance to find a way to remove the mixed evil spirit.

Thinking of this, he smiled and his expression became more relaxed.

Then he raised another question:
"Your Excellency. I want to know why you, a mere beginner monk, were attacked by such a horrible poison."

"No matter how unbelievable it is, from a certain perspective, the value of the Ten Deadly Poisons even exceeds that of some rare medicinal pills."

"Since the other party intends to capture you, such a precious poison is obviously not the first choice."

"If their purpose is to kill you, it seems even more reckless and absurd to choose to use such poison with their cultivation in the Spiritual Transformation Realm."

After hearing this, Feng Yue looked a little heavy:
"You don't know about this question. This thief Feng Zhen is actually a magic practitioner adopted by my Feng family many years ago."

"He once offended a master and was hunted down. In order to save his life, he took the initiative to become a servant of my Feng family and even changed his name."

"My grandfather was still alive at the time, and the Feng family was still powerful, so they were able to protect this villain. He had been in charge of the trade between the Feng family and the Tuwu tribe."

"My original plan when I came here was to look for him. But I didn't expect that he had secretly defected to the Kong family and ambushed me in the garrison."

"The reason why he chose to use a highly toxic poison like bitter poison is because he had already been cast with the Feng family's unique spell. Anyone who is a direct descendant of the Feng family at the beginner level or above can control his abilities through spells."

"If he hadn't attacked me with his bitterness, how could I have been defenseless?"

When Chen Yun heard this, he suddenly realized:
"I see. It is said that bitter poison is invisible and colorless, making it unnoticeable. Once it comes into contact with the weaker practitioners, it will immediately paralyze them and make them faint." "It seems that the Kong family is undoubtedly the biggest enemy of your Feng family."

"It is indeed as you said. The Kong family, the Zhang family, the Jin family and my Feng family are undoubtedly the four major families in Guanning Prefecture."

"Originally, we have always maintained a balance of non-aggression."

"However, in recent years, as the Feng family's strength has gradually declined, the Kong family has actually joined forces with the other two major families to secretly attack our Feng family."

When Feng Yue said this, his eyes were filled with anger.

As a child of an aristocratic family, he is now exiled to a foreign grassland with his life in danger, so he naturally bears a grudge against these three major families.

"I don't care about the grudges between your families. But your answer satisfies me. Now, we can talk about the Haoyuan Pill."

"I only have a few of these pills left. I still have about ten or so. They should be enough to help you hold on for another ten days."

"But please remember that each Haoyuan Pill is worth thousands of spirit stones. Can you really afford it?"

Chen Yun said calmly.

Although Feng Yue had doubts in his heart for a long time, when he heard the offer of "thousands of spirit stones", he was still shocked in his heart.

You know, this is even enough to buy a top-level magical weapon of supreme value.

However, just a moment later, Feng Yue's stoic face regained its composure and he decisively uttered two words: "Deal."

Chen Yun looked at the young man in front of him for a long time, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and asked in a meaningful tone:

"You actually have tens of thousands of spirit stones on you?"

He obviously didn't believe that the young man in front of him could possess such a huge fortune.

Feng Yue did not answer directly, but took out a silver key and handed it to Chen Yun without hesitation:
"The key to the Feng family's secret cave is here, along with the secret cave that the Feng family has treasured for hundreds of years. As a circulating item, it is definitely worth tens of thousands of spirit stones."

Facing Chen Yun's silence, Feng Yue immediately elaborated:

"Yes, this is the only magic weapon that can unlock the secret collection of our Feng family for more than a thousand years."

"As a core member of the Feng family, the eldest grandson of the direct line, I should naturally shoulder the responsibility of protecting the family's wealth."

"When they learned that our family was about to encounter an unexpected change, the elders decisively instructed me to take this key and flee first."

“Although I have never set foot in that mysterious place, I know very well that the treasures contained there are worth far more than tens of thousands of spirit stones.”

Chen Yun did not immediately reach out to take the key, but stared at Feng Yue with a cold look, as if waiting for him to continue explaining.

Feng Yue did not feel uneasy about this, but said more firmly:

"Now I am the only core member left in the Feng family, the rest are servants and disciples of side branches."

"If we fail to resolve this crisis, the Feng family's secret cave will surely fall into the hands of others, not to mention the way to revive it..."

Chen Yun immediately fell into deep thought. After a long while, he slowly spoke:

"In exchange for this, I can provide you with the elixir you need."

"But before that, I must examine you to confirm that what you said is true."

"Otherwise, no matter how precious the Feng family's secret cave is, I don't want to become a laughing stock."

When Feng Yue heard this, his face turned extremely pale in an instant, and his eyes were filled with deep fear.

Seeing this, Chen Yun smiled slightly and explained:
"The soul-searching technique can only be performed by those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage or above."

"However, if you cooperate voluntarily, then I won't have to resort to such means."

"Besides, the secret technique I master is fundamentally different from ordinary soul-searching techniques."

“Although a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage cannot delve deeply into complex matters, it is more than enough for them to distinguish true from false.”

Feng Yue's heart trembled when he heard this.

As a descendant of a noble family, he naturally knew the horror of the soul-searching technique.

However, when he looked down and saw his already black hands and the unchangeable wheel of fate, his heart was filled with an endless sense of powerlessness.

Feng Yue sighed and said firmly:
"In this case, I am willing to cooperate with you in casting the spell."

"As long as it involves the Feng Family's secret cave and the Buddhist sect, you are not allowed to involve other aspects."

"At the same time, I will strictly control my own consciousness to avoid being disturbed."

"No doubt, I am very interested in this matter."

"As for other matters, they are not enough to make me pry. In this way, this transaction can be successfully completed."

"This place is quite eye-catching. Please follow me to another place to cast the spell."

Chen Yun smiled and without waiting for a response, he waved his sleeves and gently brushed the young man's face.

A green light quickly emerged and enveloped Feng Yue's head.

The young man's body tilted and then fell to the ground, but the green light tightly wrapped around his waist like a rope, causing him to slowly float up into the air.

Although Chen Yun's cultivation has been sealed, he is still skilled and extraordinary in the use of magical techniques, far surpassing ordinary foundation-building practitioners.

At this time, a dark cloud transformed from the second Yuanying rushed out from the forest nearby.

After a fleeting flash, it changed back into its baby form and hovered steadily in front of Chen Yun.

One of the hands still held the three-edged spike tightly, and the other hand held the Eagle-eyed old man's soul.

"It's useless to keep this, it's better to destroy it."

After Chen Yun caught a glimpse of the old man's soul, he spoke in a cold and ruthless tone.

Hearing this, the second Yuanying smiled lightly, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and a black-green flame suddenly ignited in his hand.

The green ball of light trembled in the flames and silently turned into a wisp of green smoke.

At the same time, Chen Yun flicked his finger, and an egg-sized fireball landed accurately on the remains of the old man's body. (End of this chapter)
