Chapter 1291 Hitting Upon Treasure


    A wintry wind rushed through the cave, howling loudly like a demon.


    Ye Fan entered the cave without any hesitation.


    Nothing was gained by sitting on your hands and staying away from danger, after all.


    He hade so far. He had to find out what was in that cave.


    Besides, Ye Fan was confident that nothing on this ind could harm him.


    He walked deeper into the cave cautiously.


    At first, the dim light streaming in from the entrance allowed Ye Fan to see the inside of the cave.


    However, it grew darker the deeper Ye Fan ventured into the cave until it becamepletely pitch-


    ck. Having no other choice, Ye Fan slowed down as he cautiously made his way further into the


    darkness.


    The danger that he was expecting did not ur.


    It was an unexpectedly smooth and safe journey.


    That did nothing to ease the suspicion and wariness that Ye Fan harbored.


    In fact, the looming sense of danger only grew.


    The sand hissed loudly as Ye Fan''s feet took careful steps in the darkness.


    Save for the quiet sounds of his footsteps, it was utterly silent in the cave.


    All he could see was a pitch-ck darkness.


    Ye Fan slowly and carefully inched his way deeper into the cave.


    An invisible burden began to weigh upon his shoulders as he made his way inplete silence and


    darkness.


    It became a heaviness that sat heavily in his heart.


    After a long time, a glimmer of light finally emerged at the end of long and deep cave.


    "Is that light I''m seeing?"


    Everyone craved the light.


    Having been submerged in darkness for such a long time, Ye Fan was ted by the sight of that faint,


    glimmering light.


    He quickened his steps and approached the source of the light swiftly.


    As he made his way forward, he realized the growing distance between him and the walls.


    The long and narrow tunnel was expanding into something more spacious and less ustrophobic.


    His tion did notst long.


    When he finally reached the end of the tunnel, he froze.


    A solemn look darkened his face.


    His eyes stared unblinkingly into the distance.


    rm and caution red loudly in his head.


    It was as if he was staring his greatest enemy in the face.


    That would be the shadowy figure that was barely ten meters away from Ye Fan.


    Cloaked in ck robes and a veiled mask, the figure sat cross-legged on a stone tform.

    Even though they were separated by ten meters and the figure before him did not deliberately try to


    intimidate Ye Fan, the young man could still sense the invisible waves of power emanating from the


    cloaked figure.


    The rm and caution that such power invoked in Ye Fan led the young man to an instant conclusion.


    The cloaked figure before him must be incredibly powerful.


    In fact, the figure must be powerful beyond measure.


    This was someone who would at least upy one of the first ten positions in the Sky Ranking.


    How much power did that entail?


    China had a poption in the billions. Yet, no one had managed to get themselves into the top ten


    positions in the Sky Ranking.


    The most powerful martial artist alive today, Ye Qing-Tian, did not have a ce amongst those top ten


    positions.


    Any one of those ten martial artists would be viewed as a titan by the rest of the world.


    Yet, such invincible personalities were oftentimes cloaked in mystery.


    You never knew where they were and would be.


    In fact, many of the martial artists who ranked top ten in the Sky Ranking had hardly been seen or


    heard in the past few decades and even centuries.


    Who knew how many of them were still alive today?


    Ye Fan had seen much of the world in the numerous years that he had lived and he had note


    across such a powerful martial artist. That was evident of how rare such powerful warriors were.


    He had not expected to bump into one on this ind!


    "If I''m right, this swordsman must be the person who killed the giant ape outside. I can''t believe my


    luck! I''ve managed to bump into such a powerful martial artist!" cursed Ye Fan inwardly while his eyelid


    twitched violently.


    He had expected the swordsman who had in the ape to leave after retrieving the treasure inside the


    cave.


    Those marks outside clearly showed that the fight had taken ce a few days ago.


    That would have given the powerful warrior enough time to leave the South American continent.


    Ye Fan could not have expected the martial artist to stay and, in fact, retreat into seclusion.


    The fact that the cloaked figure had not yet sensed Ye Fan''s presence was because the martial artist


    was in a deep meditative trance that required full and absolute attention.


    Otherwise, as a powerful martial artist, the cloaked figure would have immediately sensed Ye Fan''s


    presence as soon as the young man had stepped foot on the ind.


    "I shouldn''t stick around anymore. I have to leave before he realizes I''m here."


    Ye Fan knew that the person before him wasn''t to be trifled with. He wasn''t the match for the cloaked


    figure. A misstep might just get him killed.


    He was prepared to slip away unnoticed.


    Ye Fan might be proud, but he wasn''t aplete idiot.


    He wasn''t suicidal and had no interest in getting himself killed.


    It was then that a blue light red and shed across the inside of the cave.


    Ye Fan''s eyes were instantly drawn to the pale blue fruit before the cloaked figure.


    The fruit hovered in mid-air and emanated a pale, eerie light.


    The faint light that Ye Fan had seen earlier had been from this spirit fruit.


    It turned slowly in the air, in time with every inhtion and exhtion of the cloaked figure.


    Ye Fan could sense from the glow enveloping the fruit waves of pure spiritual energy streaming from


    the fruit towards and into the cloaked figure.


    "This fruit..." Ye Fan''s pupils contracted instantly while shock rippled through his body. "Could this be


    the millenary ice spirit fruit?"


    There was an entry on the fruit in the Book of Celestial Cloud.


    It took ten years for its flower to blossom, another ten to bear fruit, then another ten for the fruit to ripen.


    A full cycle that spanned three decades was required before a spirit energy fruit could be formed. New

    Spirit fruits that ripened in extremely coldnds would inherit the element of ice.


    Spirit fruits that ripened in extremely hot climates would inherit the element of fire.


    Judging from the icy blue light that the fruit emanated, it was clear that it was a millenary spirit energy


    fruit that had inherited the element of ice.


    Ye Fan was certain that this one fruit could start wars amongst martial artists who had been ranked in


    the Sky Ranking.


    "I can''t believe it. The precious and rare treasure that the Book of Celestial Cloud writes of truly exists. I


    can''t believe that I''ve managed toe across one!"


    Ye Fan''s eyes burned as waves of emotion swelled inside him.


    No words could describe the spike of excitement that he was feeling right now.
