Engagement Canceled: I Can Extract Prefixes

The Ankong Sect has already had many treasures come to light, but without exception, they all ended up in the hands of other sects.

The sects that obtained these treasures all experienced some improvements because of them.

This time, the treasure is hidden so deeply, several times more difficult than before.

The things hidden inside are sure to be more precious.

There are too many sects with this kind of thinking.

That’s why so many people have come here.

Although the enemy is not far away, Shen Han shows no sign of fear.

He remains at the foot of the mountain, listening to the latest developments.

As long as he is cautious enough, he will be safe here.

Hidden in plain sight, right near You Wanying, she would never suspect.

During this period, the benefits of practicing the Old Method have become increasingly evident.

If he were cultivating the new system, he might have been caught long ago.

But with the Old Method, his aura is concealed, making it too difficult for others to find him.

The experts who have come to Heqiu Mountain all have their own ways of trying to solve the puzzles within.

But these strong ones have been here for a month with no results.

By calculations, Shen Han has been here for two months now.

During this month, he also met some familiar faces.

Elder Sizhi and Dean Sixin.

And the Vice Sect Leader of Five Immortals City has also arrived.

The Ankong Sect’s treasures are truly tempting; those who hear about them can’t resist.

Shen Han remains hidden among the crowd.

With the arrival of these powerhouses, the young disciples of humble strength have all been pushed to the outskirts.

The crowd has the self-awareness to know this.

As it stands, without strength in the Illusion Realm, they probably don’t even have the qualification to go see for themselves.

Standing in the distance, Shen Han saw the Vice Sect Leader going to find Elder Sixin and Elder Sizhi.

However, it seemed he only received cold shoulders.

The two Elders didn’t even speak with the Vice Sect Leader.

Shen Han rested peacefully at the foot of the mountain, knowing that as long as these powerhouses remained, the secret of Heqiu Mountain had not been cracked.

What Shen Han needs now is an opportunity.

But from the looks of things, as long as those powerhouses are here, he will have no chance.

The best plan is to wait, keep waiting.

No one has been able to solve it for so long; hopefully, the other powerhouses will also remain at a loss, so he can have a chance.

After resting for a few days at the foot of the mountain, Shen Han thought it over and decided to go to the nearest city to rest.

In that city, if you want to learn about related news from here, a little money will get you information.

Having made up his mind, Shen Han wasted no time and directly headed there.

He stayed at an inn and waited patiently.

With so many powerhouses coming here, Shen Han felt even more anticipation for the things hidden inside.

The treasures of the Ankong Sect are about to emerge, but it seems they have nothing to do with the Ankong Sect.

Wonder what their sect would feel like to learn about this.

Today, having some free time, Shen Han went to the city’s teahouse to listen to the people’s chatter.

Of course, there are also those who specifically sell such information.

But sometimes the information bought is of questionable authenticity.

Some are fabricated to attract attention.

Not far away, three middle-aged men were conversing.

From the information heard, those powerhouses truly seem helpless regarding the location of the treasure.

Intrigued by the gossip, Shen Han ordered a pot of good tea and walked straight to the table of the three men.

"Three elder brothers, here’s a pot of fine tea; could you also talk to me about the happenings on Heqiu Mountain?"

Shen Han’s tone was very polite, and the tea he brought was the best Maojian tea from the store.

Seeing Shen Han so understanding, the three elder brothers laughed heartily and invited Shen Han to sit down.

"In these two months, Heqiu Mountain has been quite a sight.

The strong from all major sects have come, but they’re all helpless against the defenses set by the Ankong Sect. Do you know why?"

The old man speaking wore a look of pride while talking.

Attracting Shen Han to offer hospitality and to listen in gave him quite some joy.

The people around him all stared at him, waiting for his answer.

"What the Ankong Sect has hidden inside is their number one treasure, the Spirit Devouring Mirror."

Mentioning the Spirit Devouring Mirror made the other two people pause for a bit, their pupils dilating slightly.

But Shen Han had no concept of this.

"This brother here must have never heard of the Spirit Devouring Mirror, being so calm."

The old man’s face carried a faint smile.

He couldn’t believe anyone would hear the name of the Spirit Devouring Mirror and remain indifferent.

"I’m just a country bumpkin with limited knowledge, and I’ll rely on your guidance."

Shen Han asked humbly, as he truly knew little about it.

"I guess you don’t know. You probably know about Absolute Grade and Immortal Grade treasures.

But little do you know there are treasures of even higher levels above Immortal Grade.

This Spirit Devouring Mirror is even more precious than Immortal Grade items and can be called a Magical Treasure.

The treasury of Heqiu Mountain is precisely because it holds the Spirit Devouring Mirror. Those powerhouses trying to break through the defenses find it impossible.

The techniques used by those experts are directly swallowed by the Spirit Devouring Mirror, making it utterly impossible to break through."

Spirit Devouring Mirror, devouring.

Frowning, just listening to the old man’s words, one could feel the mystery within.

"Is it really that powerful... capable of devouring everything?"

"Of course it is. Why was Ankong Sect once the top sect? It’s because of the Spirit Devouring Mirror that gave them such confidence.

If you don’t believe me, just watch. No one can forcibly break open the treasure’s location.

Without deciphering its secrets, let alone a few months, even decades won’t suffice."

This old man spoke with certainty.

Although he heard it from others, the people who enjoy discussing in teahouses all have a firm belief in the news they’ve heard.

Shen Han didn’t argue with him, as arguing only leads to dissatisfaction without any benefit.

He roughly understood that the treasures inside had the power to harness Heaven and Earth’s Momentum.

It wasn’t as the old man said, capable of devouring everything.

But for those using the new cultivation system to draw upon Heaven and Earth’s Momentum to attack, forcibly breaking it open was absolutely impossible.

"Just watch, it won’t be long before those experts leave.

They’re wasting their time here.

Sitting in high positions, their time is precious and they won’t linger here endlessly."

The old man’s words were full of certainty.

Shen Han agreed with this point of view.

The time of experts is indeed too valuable to waste.

However, concerning the Spirit Devouring Mirror, Shen Han needed to think more about it.

Upon returning to the tavern, Shen Han pondered deeply over the Spirit Devouring Mirror.

If it could devour Heaven and Earth’s Momentum, would it still be a treasure for those following the new cultivation path?

The Spirit Devouring Mirror could devour the Heaven and Earth’s Momentum invoked by experts, but wouldn’t it also devour the surrounding Heaven and Earth’s Momentum?

Perhaps it could be controlled by the user’s Heart Thought?

Many doubts arose in Shen Han’s mind, but for him, the Spirit Devouring Mirror was definitely a supreme treasure.

He didn’t rely on Heaven and Earth’s Momentum, so even if the Spirit Devouring Mirror devoured the surrounding Heaven and Earth’s Momentum, it wouldn’t affect him.

Regardless, this Spirit Devouring Mirror was extremely useful to him.

Devouring Heaven and Earth’s Momentum opened up the possibility of facing stronger opponents.

Of course, this was assuming what the old man said was true.

He was just babbling based on hearsay, so if it’s not true, it would be a waste of effort.

But no matter what, all I can do now is wait.

Having already wasted a few months, there’s no rush for the moment.

Shen Han wanted to quickly enter the First Grade Realm, but even for those following the new cultivation system, it wasn’t easy to reach such strength.

Not to mention, he practiced the Old Cultivation Method.

Feeling lost without a clear path for advancement was indeed confusing.

For now, trying to seize this supreme treasure seemed to be all Shen Han could do.

Calming his mind, Shen Han decided to settle in this small city.

Over two months, Shen Han often sought information about it.

Information regarding the Spirit Devouring Mirror gradually increased.

The news conveyed that the Spirit Devouring Mirror was indeed wondrously mysterious and could be controlled.

No wonder so many were vying for it.

Acquiring this supreme treasure would be immensely significant for a sect.

Possessing the Spirit Devouring Mirror in a fight at the Illusion Realm level almost guaranteed victory.

In those two months, most of the strong individuals from various sects showcased their skills here.

Those labeled as strong naturally had some extraordinary abilities.

However, the outcome was the same for all: returning without any success.

Along with this, more news emerged.

The Spirit Devouring Mirror, after consuming too much of Heaven and Earth’s Momentum, would counterattack, unleashing retaliation.

Many experts wisely chose to leave.

The teahouse old man hadn’t exaggerated a bit.

Experts’ time is precious beyond measure.

With little gain, they wouldn’t waste more time.

Like You Wanying, she still had to figure out how to deal with me, so she couldn’t waste her time here.

Two and a half months later, most of the experts who should have left had indeed left.

Shen Han went back to Heqiu Mountain again.

After the experts departed, many young people still lingered.

Many young people gathered here, first, to exchange cultivation methods.

Secondly, many sects held a glimmer of hope.

The outermost gate was believed to only be decipherable by the younger generation.

Experts speculated that perhaps only the younger generation could unlock these opportunities.

Thirdly, many hadn’t truly witnessed the Spirit Devouring Mirror, only knowing it from rumors.

It might not retaliate, but what if it did and severely injured the experts?

What expert would risk themselves for that?

Younger individuals, with weaker strength, couldn’t summon much of Heaven and Earth’s Momentum.

The possibility of triggering retaliation from the Spirit Devouring Mirror was naturally lower.

The reasoning was plain and simple.

Young talents couldn’t possibly be valued higher than established experts.

Shen Han observed that most young people weren’t too worried about the supposed retaliation.

Wu Ke and Shen Ao also remained behind.

Squinting slightly, Shen Han looked at the two of them among the crowd.

You Wanying probably thought that with so many people around, I wouldn’t dare to act against her two disciples.
