Starting from Signing In from Womb

Qin Huaian turned his head and found that the person who spoke was a middle-aged man in a black robe. The other party's eyes were as sharp as knives, and he had obviously noticed his unusualness.

"I am just a casual cultivator who happened to come here. I have no intention of offending you."

Qin Huaian remained calm and composed.

The middle-aged man smiled coldly: "Really? Then why is your aura so different from that of an ordinary cultivator?"

Qin Huaian's heart trembled, knowing that he might have been exposed.

He quickly adjusted his state and smiled faintly: "Different aura? Perhaps it's because my cultivation method is a little special."

The middle-aged man was obviously not convinced. He slowly approached, and the aura on his body was gradually released. The atmosphere in the entire camp suddenly became tense.

Qin Huaian secretly clenched his fists, and the spiritual energy in his body circulated quietly, ready to deal with any unexpected situation at any time.

However, just as the two sides were on the verge of a fight, a cold voice came from the black tent -

"stop."

The middle-aged man stopped what he was doing, a look of awe appeared on his face, and he bowed in the direction of the tent: "Yes."

A figure slowly walked out of the tent. It was a young man in a purple robe, with an indescribable majesty between his brows.

His eyes fell on Qin Huaian, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly: "My friend, since you are here, why not stay and chat."

Qin Huaian had anticipated the appearance of the man in purple robe, but he still couldn't help but feel wary.

Although the other party did not release any pressure, Qin Huaian knew at a glance that this person was definitely not an ordinary cultivator.

He secretly mobilized his spiritual energy, but on the surface he calmly clasped his fists and saluted: "I am just an unknown person who accidentally entered this place. If I have offended you, please forgive me."

The purple-robed man smiled slightly, with an inexplicable deep meaning in his eyes: "Entered by mistake? Since you can kill the Scarlet Flame Wolf and enter safely from outside the Falling Star Valley, you are not like an ordinary casual cultivator."

Qin Huaian knew that the other party had doubts about him, so he could only adapt to the situation and said calmly: "I was just a little lucky and was lucky enough to get some means to save my life. Otherwise, how could I dare to go deep into this Falling Star Valley."

The purple-robed man stopped asking questions and turned to walk into the tent, waving his hand: "Come in, we can talk slowly."

The other monks in the camp looked at Qin Huaian, their eyes filled with indifference and vigilance, but more of a hint of hostility.

Qin Huaian knew clearly that these people were not friendly to outsiders, especially to a stranger who might disrupt their plans.

Despite this, he still followed the purple-robed man into the tent, walking steadily and without hesitation.

The layout inside the tent was simple and solemn. In the middle was a long table engraved with complex array patterns, emitting a faint spiritual light.

Several cultivators with powerful auras stood on both sides, each of them had a cultivation level above the Foundation Establishment Stage, and at the end of the long table sat an old man with white hair and an aged face.

The white-haired old man closed his eyes and rested, his breath was restrained, but he seemed to be one with the world.

He didn't raise his eyes, but just sitting there made people feel an invisible oppression.

Qin Huaian instantly judged that the old man's cultivation was at least above the Jindan stage, or possibly even higher.

The man in purple robe walked up to the old man and whispered a few words. The old man then slowly opened his eyes and his gaze fell on Qin Huaian.

At that moment, Qin Huaian felt as if a mountain was pressing down on his heart, but he did not show any sign of abnormality. He just bowed slightly to show his respect.

The old man spoke calmly, his voice low and majestic: "Are you a casual cultivator? If so, why are you here?"

Qin Huaian had already prepared his words, and he answered respectfully: "Senior, I am from Tianfeng City. I heard that Luoxing Valley has abundant spiritual energy, so I took the liberty to come here to explore. I have no other intentions."

The old man nodded slightly, seemingly not interested in the answer.

He glanced at the purple-robed man, who immediately understood and said, "In that case, why don't you stay here for a while to rest? We happen to be in need of a few capable assistants. If you perform well, you will naturally get some benefits."

Qin Huaian nodded in thanks, but he became more alert in his heart. He could feel that these people obviously had other plans, and the so-called assistants were probably not just simple chores or guards.

The purple-robed man seemed to see Qin Huaian's hesitation and said with a smile: "You don't need to think too much. We are not bad people. We are just here to do some business and practice. Since you can get through the dangerous area outside, it is enough to prove your strength. Staying here will benefit both you and me."

Qin Huaian knew that refusal would only bring more trouble.

He thought about it for a moment and agreed: "In that case, I will follow your arrangement, but if there is anything wrong, please let me know."

The man in purple robe nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered his men to take Qin Huaian to a more remote tent to stay temporarily.

The camp was heavily guarded, with formations and sentry posts interlaced, making it difficult to find a way out. Qin Huaian observed along the way, secretly noting down the arrangements in various places, and gradually gained some confidence in his heart.

As night fell, the camp was silent.

Qin Huaian sat in the tent, pretending to meditate and practice, but in fact he separated a strand of mental energy to quietly explore the surrounding situation.

He discovered that in the black tent in the center of the camp, several high-level monks were talking in low voices, and the content of their conversation vaguely mentioned words such as "teleportation array" and "spiritual vein core".

This information shocked Qin Huaian.

He finally understood that the reason these people chose Falling Star Valley was not just to hide their whereabouts or practice, but for other purposes.

He listened carefully, and gradually pieced together a startling picture.

It turns out that there is an ancient spiritual vein hidden deep in the Falling Star Valley, and this group of people are preparing to activate some kind of teleportation array to guide the power of the spiritual vein to the outside world.

If successful, it would not only pose a serious threat to the Martial Arts House, but could also cause turmoil in the entire cultivation world.

"I see..."

Qin Huaian said in his heart.

He knew that he had to stop all this, but given the current situation, he was alone and the strength gap was huge. Any rash action would only result in his life being wasted.

He suppressed his anxiety and decided to wait for the opportunity.

At the same time, he was also considering whether he could use the power of the system to gain more bargaining chips for himself.

The next morning, the purple-robed man found Qin Huaian again, handed him a jade token, and said, "This is a pass token. With it, you can enter and leave the camp freely. But remember, don't approach the black tent in the center without permission, otherwise you will bear the consequences."

Qin Huaian took the token and nodded respectfully, laughing in his heart: "With this token, my actions will be more convenient."

In the next few days, Qin Huaian assisted the monks in the camp in completing some chores step by step, but in fact he continued to collect intelligence and gradually figured out the location and activation method of the teleportation array.

He discovered that the core of the teleportation array required three spirit stones as a guide, two of which had been placed in the array, and the last spirit stone was carried by the purple-robed man.

Qin Huaian knew that this was his best chance.

He formulated a bold plan and decided to seize the spirit stone and destroy the formation when the teleportation formation was about to be activated, while trying to transmit the information back to the Martial Arts Mansion.

In the dead of night, he quietly left the tent and sneaked towards the residence of the purple-robed man.
