Before the entrance was a flat boulder, where Mo Wuji and his group of five landed. A few meters ahead of the flat stone stood a black gate made of an unknown material.

While Pu Qian and the others perceived the gate as a solid piece of rock through the water screen, Mo Wuji's spiritual sense clearly detected a thin crack in the middle of the gate.

Mo Wuji gestured for Pu Qian and the others to wait, then walked to the gate and pushed it. The gate seemed to budge slightly. Mo Wuji channeled his elemental energy and pushed again, and the gate slowly opened.

A burst of golden light shot out, stunning Mo Wuji and his companions. Behind the gate lay a spacious hall, its walls adorned with golden glazed lanterns, exuding an air of opulent grandeur.

Mo Wuji beckoned to Sang Yiping and the others, and led the way through the gate.

As he stepped inside, the immense water pressure instantly vanished without a trace. Moreover, there was not a single drop of water in sight, resembling the legendary Dragon Palace, where water flowed outside but could not penetrate the entrance. The air inside was fresh and clean, making it impossible to believe they were underwater.

Sang Yiping and the other three followed, and Zhuang Yan, relieved from the pressure, immediately exclaimed in awe, gazing at a bright pearl overhead, "That must be a Water-Repelling Pearl, blocking the seawater!"

The others also stared eagerly at the pearl, wondering how much a Water-Repelling Pearl would be worth. Even a top-tier spiritual weapon couldn't compare to the value of this pearl.

"Could this really be an immortal's dwelling?" Sang Yiping was the first to react. With a Water-Repelling Pearl at the entrance, what else could it be?

"The spiritual energy here is so dense. I think it's very likely," Pu Qian said excitedly. The moment he entered, he felt the abundant spiritual energy. He had never cultivated in such a spiritually rich place before. And this was just at the entrance; how dense would the spiritual energy be inside the golden hall?

Sang Yiping looked at Mo Wuji expectantly and asked, "Sect Leader, what should we do?"

Mo Wuji had already scanned the surroundings with his spiritual sense. He then said, "We'll only know if this is an immortal's dwelling after we explore it. However, the pearl at the entrance is not a Water-Repelling Pearl, but just a regular eye of a Bright Light Array. The reason why water can't enter has nothing to do with the pearl. There is a Water-Dispelling Array here."

Hearing Mo Wuji's words, the others were disappointed.

Mo Wuji smiled and said, "Even if there's nothing here, this place with its rich spiritual energy is still a good place to cultivate. Let's go in and take a look first."

The group walked past the front of the hall and stood inside the magnificent main hall. A line of words directly ahead caught their attention: "So what if you obtain the immortal's dwelling? So what? So what, huh?"

The three consecutive "So what?" left them completely baffled.

"Is this really an immortal's dwelling? Did we enter an immortal's dwelling?" Sang Yiping asked in shock.

Even Nie Zhengnong, who rarely spoke, looked at Mo Wuji with anticipation. Entering an immortal's dwelling was a great stroke of luck.

Mo Wuji sighed. "This should indeed be the place where the immortal's dwelling was inherited. Unfortunately, we're not the ones who entered the immortal's dwelling. We only entered the main hall where the immortal's dwelling was located. The real immortal's dwelling must have been inherited long ago. Look here."

As he spoke, Mo Wuji pointed to an area directly in front of the hall. There were many footprints on the ground. Although the footprints were faint, they were very clear. The footprints formed a circle, and in the center of the circle, an area about two to three zhang in diameter was free of dust or any footprints.

"Sect Leader, are you saying that the center is where the immortal's dwelling was located? Someone came in, walked around the immortal's dwelling, and then entered it, but where is the immortal's dwelling?" Sang Yiping asked, puzzled.

Pu Qian said from the side, "I've read in some notes that top-grade treasures have spirituality and can actively recognize their masters, then automatically disappear. Perhaps the immortal's dwelling was inherited and then vanished from here."

Mo Wuji wasn't sure what an immortal's dwelling was like, so he could only explain it using Pu Qian's words.

"Alas, what a pity. We entered the location of an immortal's dwelling, but gained nothing. This hall looks magnificent, but it's just some pretty Bright Light Arrays. What a disappointment," Sang Yiping sighed, looking dejected.

Mo Wuji had been carefully examining the footprints on the ground, and finally determined that they were two people's footprints. However, he wasn't very familiar with Mo Xiangtong and Shi Yi Niang, and didn't know if these footprints were left by them. Deep down, Mo Wuji hoped that these were their footprints.

"It's not necessarily a complete loss. There's another door here," Mo Wuji said, standing up and walking towards the right side of the hall. He reached out and pushed.

The wall, which had previously appeared seamless, unexpectedly opened up to reveal a small door.

The group entered the small door and were immediately stunned. Inside was a small bedroom. There was a bed in the bedroom, and on the bed was a dried-up corpse. In front of the corpse, there was a piece of leather scroll, a ring, and a crystal-clear jade seal placed on the scroll.

In addition, there were several shelves made of an unknown material around the bed, filled with various jade bottles.

The group exchanged glances, unsure of what was going on. Could this corpse have been cultivating here?

Mo Wuji walked over and picked up the leather scroll, ring, and jade seal in front of the corpse. The words on the scroll were clear, and everyone could read them.

"I, Jing Gumu, fought with dozens of experts from the True Meek Continent for the Six Mud Immortal Abode, suffered severe injuries escaping from Tian Hai, and landed on Tian Hu Island to heal in this cave. However, my injuries worsened, and the Six Mud Immortal Abode was of no help to me. So what if I risked everything to obtain the immortal's dwelling?

After years of seclusion, my lifespan has reached its limit. Looking back on countless years, I am filled with sorrow, and my heart is deeply saddened, and inner demons have arrived. The Six Mud Immortal Abode is not meant for me. I leave it here in the hall, waiting for someone with destiny. Whoever enters this small room, please take everything away. The jade seal is the key to open the immortal's dwelling; it can be refined with blood to recognize its owner. Do not disturb my remains..."

"I know who this Jing Gumu is," Sang Yiping suddenly said after reading the contents of the leather scroll.

Mo Wuji looked at Sang Yiping and asked in confusion, "Who is he?"

"He is the Sect Leader of the Heavenly Sect. I heard he loves to collect treasures. As long as it's a treasure, he will definitely go and collect it..."

"Ah, Jing Gumu?" Pu Qian exclaimed in surprise after hearing Sang Yiping's words.

Mo Wuji asked, "Is Jing Gumu very famous? I've never heard of the Heavenly Sect."

Sang Yiping replied, "The Heavenly Sect was once the largest sect in the Five Empires. Even the Wen Tian Academy might not have surpassed it. The strength of the Heavenly Sect Leader, Jing Gumu, was rumored to have reached the Late Heavenly Realm. It is said that he was the only Late Heavenly Realm expert in the entire Five Empires. However, Jing Gumu was not good at socializing and was extremely arrogant, and his subordinates followed suit, so the Heavenly Sect disciples were also arrogant. Many years ago, the Heavenly Sect Leader suddenly disappeared.

Without a Sect Leader, the suppressed contradictions of the Heavenly Sect suddenly surfaced. Factional infighting within the sect led to a rapid decline. At this time, Wen Tian Academy accused the Heavenly Sect of ten major crimes and directly removed the Heavenly Sect from Lost Continent.

The three Heavenly Sects of the Star Han Empire, Heavenly Sword Island, Heavenly Sound Palace, and Heavenly Devil Sect, were established by descendants of Heavenly Sect disciples. In fact, my Heavenly Mystery Sect also has some origins with the Heavenly Sect, because the founder of Wen Tian Academy was once an outer disciple of the Heavenly Sect. It's just that my Heavenly Mystery Sect is of a very low level, so no one cares."

"Why did Wen Tian Academy remove the Heavenly Sect?" Mo Wuji asked, puzzled.

"It is said that the name of the Heavenly Sect offended Wen Tian Academy, one being 'Heavenly' and the other 'Asking Heaven,' clearly indicating a lower rank. When Jing Gumu was around, Wen Tian Academy didn't dare to say a word, but after Jing Gumu disappeared, Wen Tian Academy naturally wouldn't be polite," Sang Yiping explained.

Mo Wuji nodded and returned the items in his hand to their original positions. Then, he said, "Let's all go outside first."

Seeing that Mo Wuji didn't touch the elixirs on the shelves and returned the items he had obtained, the other four followed Mo Wuji out of the small room.

After everyone was out, Mo Wuji said, "We can infer several things from this Heavenly Sect Leader's message. First, if we continue forward from this Tian Hai, we can reach another continent called the True Meek Continent. Second, Jing Gumu, a True God Late Stage expert, was severely injured and eventually died in the True Meek Continent, indicating that there are many powerful experts in the True Meek Continent. Third, the message at the entrance of the immortal's dwelling was probably left by Jing Gumu. Fourth, it is possible that Tian Hu Island sank because someone took away the immortal's dwelling, or these arrangements may be related to Jing Gumu, perhaps Jing Gumu didn't want anyone to disturb him."

"That's indeed the case," Pu Qian immediately nodded in agreement after hearing Mo Wuji's analysis.

Mo Wuji frowned and asked, "But have you noticed some deeper issues?"

"What issues?" Sang Yiping and the other three asked in unison.

Mo Wuji pointed to the hidden room behind them and said, "One is that Jing Gumu said that the jade seal to open the immortal's dwelling is still there, but the immortal's dwelling is gone. If the immortal's dwelling wasn't opened, how did it disappear? Second, Jing Gumu escaped from the True Meek Continent along the Tian Hai to this place and chose this place for closed-door healing. From his words, we can see that he was seriously injured. But who sent out the immortal's dwelling sea chart that I obtained? Another question is, since someone saw the immortal's dwelling, how could they not find Jing Gumu's room?"

When he mentioned the last question, Mo Wuji's heart stirred. If the immortal's dwelling was taken away by Shi Yi Niang and Mo Xiangtong, then they might really not have found Jing Gumu's room, because neither of them had cultivated and didn't understand the ways of cultivators at all. But if Jing Gumu said that the jade seal to open the immortal's dwelling was still there, how did Shi Yi Niang and Mo Xiangtong take away the immortal's dwelling?
