Cause and Effect

Qin Tian happily wolfed down the food.

If there is anything Qin Tian loved besides his parents mean that's the food.

Qin Tian decided to leave after a successful banquet and said: "old ape, I am leaving then and I'll surely remember to come after I reached the soul refining realm."

Old ape nodded and said "take this map and try your luck" as he handed over the map.

Qin Tian took the map and asked: "what is it?".

Old ape responded "This is a map for some cultivator remains, it's in the inner area so go and seek out now while you have my people protection"

While he's not a greedy person, he knew if he doesn't take the offer, they will insist on it so, why not? Anyways he needs to improve his strength quickly.

So, Qin Tian nodded and as he paid the thanks and he followed apes to seek out cultivator remains.

The inner region of the sunset forest is thicker and very cruel.

If not for the protection of mountain ape's tribe he should've died even he has a hundred lives.

To say mountain ape's tribe strength is quite strong and their tribe masters grade 3 demonic beasts as he knew he is talking.

While Qin Tian found the story from the old ape about the previous incident, but he found many loopholes, since he is working with demonic apes why not know about tribe matters nook and corner.

"Know yourself and know your enemy so, you don't need to care about 100

war results. [1]"

Qin Tian knew about this statement so; he is inquiring about the tribe.

As long story short, mountain tribe clan master(Old ape) has many wives but he loved two of the most and only one of their sons can become a new tribe master.

So, Assassins are common but the thing conspiracies are going on is definitely

significant matter.

While assassins are common, but violent wolves' tribe and mountain ape tribe are bloody enemies and someone released the matter about clan master son is a conspiracy.

And there is one more chance that someone in the ape tribe has spies.

Even though Qin Tian understood the situation but, he can't do anything right now.

So, he pushed the information to a corner of his brain.

Back to reality

While Qin Tian and ape's team are on the way, they encountered many beasts but when they sensed grade 3 demonic beast pressure, they quickly made their way.

After two days

Qin tian asked grade3 demonic ape "where are we?"

Even though if ape elder wants to kill Qin Tian he can kill with a snap of a finger but he didn't dare to neglect because of the only reason "Tribe Master orders".

The ape elder replied, "we are almost there".

After an hour they reached a cave and when Qin Tian reached the cave, he felt nothing and it's almost like there is nothing but an empty cave.

Albeit, He entered and left cave many times and searched nook and corner he found nothing.

Qin Tian perplexed as he looked at ape elder and when ape saw his confusion they explained: "there is an ancient formation and one need to know formation to feel the cultivation remains".

Qin Tian nodded in understanding and asked: "How do I know the ancient formation?".

The ape elder smiled and looked at the map.

"Drop blood on the map" ape elder said while Qin Tian raised the map puzzled.

Qin tian bites his finger and dripped with his blood on the map.

A lot of information about the ancient formation and ancient remains flowed into Qin Tian's sea of consciousness.

Qin Tian entered the cave and made a strange seal and inserted spiritual energy into the wall at the end of the cave and he found some formation flags.

Though he found formation flags, Qin Tian can't set up the formation so he looked at the ape elder.

Qin Tian explained the formation and ape elder helped tian to set-up formation.

After setting up the formation ape elder said: "we will be waiting here so, go and find your luck".

Qin Tian found information from the map as they can't enter the cave so, he nodded.

He activated the formation and space distorted in front of the cave.

Tian quickly entered into the distorted space and distorted space disappeared.

After a while ape elders and remaining apes heard a voice from the sky as Qin Tian fell from the sky.

"F**K, can't he have made normal exit", Qin Tian cursed as he tidied up his clothes.

"Did you get any treasures?" the ape elder asked Qin Tian.

Qin Tian nodded as he showed what he got.

One cultivation technique, alchemy technique, some pills, and a cauldron appeared in his hand.

The ape elder nodded in satisfaction and told tian to put those in a spatial ring.

Qin Tian and mountain apes started the journey again towards the outer region of the sunset forest.

Qin Tian when he was at cultivator remains

When tian entered into space distortion, he saw everyone disappeared beside him and found the same cave but the only difference is it's not empty.

When he entered a cave, the whole cave lit up and saw the bones of the cultivator and he carved he seem to be carved some words on the wall.

"I was born in the small clan but because of my desire to not submit to someone, I cultivated and found my path in "Dao of Alchemy" and became alchemy emperor in the eternal world, but because I found the formula for an ancient pill, most of the alchemy emperors and martial artists coveted my pill formula and chased the whole eternal world and here I am died at some corner of the world, fated one, since you came here I'll give you my inheritance and pass my legacy to someone if you are not interested in Dao of Alchemy."

Qin Tian found many porcelain bottles and found some cultivation techniques and alchemy techniques and finally found one cauldron.

Cauldron seems to be brownish color and it gave a pleasant feeling and four sides, four divine beasts carved and appeared as they are alive.

After he took everything he moved towards the exit and fell from the sky.

Back to Reality

Shadow guards are still searching for Qin Tian and they didn't dare to go back to Qin clan as they knew if they can't find Qin Tian clan master surely will surely kill them.

They are almost searching Qin Tian for 4 days and still, there are no results.

So, they decided to venture into the inner region.

When shadow guards thinking about the inner region, they heard some voice and made their way towards the voice.

Qin Tian and apes are almost at the border between the inner region and the outer region.

Albeit, he knew they are protecting him because he needed to help him, still, Qin Tian can't help but appreciate their hospitality.

While he was talking and walking towards the outer region with ape elders 4 shadows attacked apes out of nowhere.

All shadow guards are soul refining stage and when they made their move, apes don't have a chance to fight as they quickly subdued.

While Qin Tian still in shock he heard a shout from an ape elder "Qin Tian, quickly escape I will try to stall him" as he imagined shadow guards are Qin Tian's enemies.

Perhaps ape elder following tribe leader orders or he truly liked Qin Tian, he decided to fight by putting his life on the line.

Though Qin Tian knew this is a misunderstanding, this time he touched to the core and started to consider ape tribe as his own.

When he recovered from shock Qin Tian shouted: "shadow guards stop, what are you doing?".

Every guard immediately stopped, knelt and greeted "Young master Tian".

Ape elder shocked, though he knew Qin Tian came from the great family he never guessed guards are in the same level as him and started to imagine how big his clan his.

This time ape elder wrong, though they called shadow guards their position his no weaker than elders in the clan.

Qin Tian ignored shadow guards and made his way to mountain apes and apologized to them as he helped to get them up.

Shadow guards truly shocked when they saw his behavior and realized they didn't understand their young master.

Shadow guards immediately apologized when they found mountain apes saved Qin Tian.

Shadow guards and mountain apes became friendly after some introduction and then a shadow guard told Qin Tian "young master tian, clan master is quite worried about you and you should immediately come and meet him otherwise he might as well kill us".

Qin Tian smiled and shook his head as he felt his grandpa was worried for nothing.

Then, he said to the ape elder that "ape elder, then I will bid my farewell and return to my clan and I'll surely remember to visit tribe when I reached the soul refining stage."

The ape elder nodded as they parted their ways.
