CHAPTER 293: CHAPTER 177: OMEN OF GREAT PROSPERITY, DANGER AVERTED

Clearly, this is also a critical choice.

Very important for Jiang Fan’s future.

Normally, for an invitation from an unknown Foundation Establishment Cultivator, without knowing the other party’s intentions, it’s natural to choose refusal, which is the prudent choice.

As the saying goes, one knows the face but not the heart.

The Cultivation Realm is filled with deceitful, cunning, despicable cultivators.

No one knows if the other party might stab you in the back.

For profit, countless people will draw swords against each other.

However, according to the information from the Fortune-Telling Talisman, even if I refuse Ma Zhong Mountain, there will be no trouble, no gains, and no hidden dangers.

On the contrary, agreeing to the invitation might lead to significant rewards.

After all, this is extremely auspicious.

The Fortune-Telling Talisman rarely gives information of extreme luck.

This means that the trip to the Golden Core Cave Mansion must have treasures I need.

Regardless of whether the other party has good intentions or malicious motives.

But for him, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

"This trip to the Golden Core Cave Mansion is thrilling but safe."

"That means there will certainly be disturbances along the way, but no danger."

"It’s worth a try."

Thinking of this, Jiang Fan looked at Ma Zhong Mountain.

Then he opened his mouth and said, "Fellow Daoist Ma, I am very interested in your proposal. What kind of Golden Core Cave Mansion is this?"

Although he is indeed a very cautious person, the act of cultivating sometimes requires courageous advancement.

Careful when needed, bold when necessary.

Only then can one advance and retreat with ease.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, are you interested?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Zhongshan’s eyes lit up at once. He was already prepared for rejection.

In fact, he wanted to invite other Foundation Establishment cultivators from Seven Stars Peak to join the action.

Unfortunately, other Foundation Establishment cultivators refused him, claiming the risks were too high.

But he never expected this young Foundation Establishment cultivator to seem quite interested.

For him, this is good news.

Ma Zhongshan immediately said, "This Golden Core Cave Mansion is located in the Mist Mountain Range. I discovered it by chance; although I don’t know who this Golden Core Zhenren was, judging from the Restriction Array of the Cave Mansion, they must have been extraordinary in life. Once we break through the array inside, our gains will be considerable.

Moreover, to ensure foolproof action, I have invited three other Foundation Establishment companions from Xuanjian City. If Fellow Daoist Jiang joins, there will be five Foundation Establishment cultivators, ensuring there’s no safety issue."

"I see."

"Since Fellow Daoist Ma has made such thorough preparations, I am willing to join."

Jiang Fan knew the Mist Mountain Range was a vast mountain range within the Profound Celestial Sword Sect’s territory, much larger than the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range.

It is said the mountain range is shrouded in white mist, obscuring its true form.

Once inside, one may get lost in the depths of the mountains.

Because of these traits, many Demon Beasts and Demon Cultivators hide in the depths of the Mist Mountain Range.

In the past, the Profound Celestial Sword Sect sent cultivators into the Mist Mountain Range to eliminate them.

Unfortunately, it was all in vain.

Because the Mist Mountain Range is too vast, and it’s easy to lose one’s way.

Ultimately, the Profound Celestial Sword Sect could not find those who deliberately hid, leading to no resolution.

Therefore, the Mist Mountain Range is extremely dangerous.

Without necessity, ordinary cultivators dare not approach the Mist Mountain Range.

Of course, due to the Mountain Range’s characteristics, it is rarely visited.

Thus, deep within the mountains could lie hidden Spirit Medicines and Demon Beasts and many rare mineral veins.

This is why many Loose Cultivators, to earn Spirit Stones, choose to venture into the Mist Mountain Range.

"This is great."

"In that case, it’s a deal."

"Three days later, we shall go to the Mist Mountain Range together."

Ma Zhongshan said immediately, full of joy.

After speaking, he quickly left.

The Ten Thousand Transformations Pill Furnace beside him was completely speechless, not knowing what to say.

It didn’t know when its master became so daring, proactively seeking adventure.

Could it be that upon advancing to Third-Layer Foundation Establishment, he started feeling bold?!

"Weiwei, I’ll be going out for a few days."

"Stay back at Seven Stars Peak and wait for me to return."

At this moment, Jiang Fan said to Su Weiwei.

"Alright."

Su Weiwei nodded. Although she was a little worried about her husband’s safety, she also knew her man was cautious and should encounter no major problems.

Presumably, this adventure will be uneventful.

Three days later, Ma Zhongshan appeared on time and together with Jiang Fan, left Seven Stars Peak, heading towards the Mist Mountain Range.

......

Of course, this matter also came to the attention of other Foundation Establishment cultivators on Seven Stars Peak.

After all, in this world, there are no walls without cracks.

"Tsk tsk, Fellow Daoist Jiang seems like a cautious cultivator."

"I never thought he would agree with Fellow Daoist Ma. What kind of persuasive words did Fellow Daoist Ma use?"

Fan Wenli clicked his tongue, clearly not optimistic about Jiang Fan and Ma Zhongshan’s action, even believing they face ominous challenges.

"Oh, does Fellow Daoist Fan think the Golden Core Cave Mansion is fake?"

Yu Kelian’s beautiful eyes sparkled as she curiously asked.

"It might not necessarily be fake."

"But exploring a Golden Core Cave Mansion is not so easy."

"Perhaps Fellow Daoist Ma himself has no great malice."
