"Everyone in the world knows about the ambitious desires of the Wanyan Family. Mr. Ye, rest assured, we will certainly be cautious!" a man shouted loudly, "Mr. Ye, we appreciate your kindness, but perhaps you should first show us the things from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master, so the heroes of the world can have a clear look!"

Many people nodded in agreement, and Ye Qing smiled lightly, saying: "Mr. Ye's words are complete, and now, let all of you take a look at what has been brought out from this Tomb of Ghost Valley Master!"

As Ye Qing spoke, he gently clapped his hands, and someone immediately brought out a tray. On top of the tray was placed an ancient book that seemed to have been stored for an unknown duration. The text on the book was in Taoist Incantations, but there were very few at the scene who could actually read it.

Upon seeing this ancient book, the crowd immediately erupted into chaos. Is this the item Ye Qing obtained from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master? It's an ancient book, but what does it record inside? Could it be the top-level Secret Technique of the Taoist Sect?

"This ancient book is precisely what Mr. Ye obtained from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master. It's written entirely in Taoist Incantations, and Mr. Ye himself does not understand it, so he hasn't known what is written on it," Ye Qing explained. "Today, since all the heroes are present, you can verify and see exactly what this ancient book contains."

"Mr. Ye, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" a man suddenly shouted, "You mentioned it's written in Taoist Incantations, so only those who understand the language can recognize this book. By showing it to us like this, what can those of us who don't understand Taoist Incantations discern?"

"Yes, yes, the majority of us present don't understand Taoist Incantations, your actions are unfair!"

"Indeed, by doing this, you're clearly showing it only to those who understand Taoist Incantations, and not to us!"

The crowd began to clamor in dissatisfaction with Ye Qing's approach. Ye Qing, however, smiled calmly and remained silent, waiting for the noise to settle before gesturing and saying: "If the Taoist Incantations are unfamiliar, anyone can freely transcribe a copy to take back and study with someone knowledgeable about Taoist Incantations."

"Oh? Transcription is allowed?" The crowd became excited, as this indeed was good news. Ye Qing not only displayed the ancient book from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master but also allowed them to transcribe it. This made everyone more impressed with Ye Qing.

"Of course!" Ye Qing affirmed, "This is the method I have thought of. There is only one book, but heroes from all over the world are here. Naturally, no one should leave empty-handed. Therefore, this book can be transcribed by everyone, and I've also prepared paper and pen for those who need them at any time."

After Ye Qing finished talking, a group of people emerged from behind, bringing out paper and pen for transcription, clearly facilitating transcriptions for everyone present.

At this, the crowd became even more thrilled. Initially, they thought acquiring something from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master would require a fierce competition, perhaps even risking their lives with no guarantee of success. Who would have thought Ye Qing would simply display the book for everyone to see and provide paper and pen for transcription, truly unexpected. Could it be that Ye Qing is overly generous?

Wanyan Hongsheng stood within the crowd, finding Ye Qing's actions somewhat unusual. In his view, Ye Qing surely wouldn't easily reveal the items from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master. Yet, Ye Qing not only revealed them but also generously allowed everyone to transcribe them. What exactly is going on?

He discreetly glanced at the eager crowd and subtly signaled to someone who had allied with the Wanyan Family, whispering a few instructions.

The person understood, stepped forward, and called out loudly: "Mr. Ye, is this the ancient book you obtained from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master?"

"Indeed!" Ye Qing nodded in confirmation, "This ancient book was concealed within the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master!"

"I wonder how many ancient books Mr. Ye obtained from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master?" the person queried once more.

This question compelled everyone to turn their gaze to Ye Qing. If there was only this one ancient book, then it would be fine. But if Ye Qing had obtained several books and only presented this one, then the crowd would be displeased.

"What do you think is the number of ancient books in the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master?" Ye Qing retorted.

"I haven't entered the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master, how would I know?" the person sneered, "Only Mr. Ye himself knows how many ancient books are in the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master. We are merely subject to whatever Mr. Ye chooses to play us as!"

"So you do not trust me, then!" Ye Qing smiled lightly, and said: "If you do not trust me, it's no issue, Mr. Ye can take this ancient book back. Besides this book, Mr. Ye has nothing else to present. Should anyone believe Mr. Ye privately hoarded anything from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master, feel free to name it and demand it from Mr. Ye!"

The crowd felt a bit awkward; who could say what exactly was inside the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master? It's simply unrealistic to know. Moreover, since this ancient book was displayed, if Ye Qing were to reclaim it, wouldn't everyone's efforts be in vain?

Thus, many began to look displeased at the person. Regardless of how many books Ye Qing might reveal, they should at least transcribe this one first before dealing with other matters. If Ye Qing indeed retrieved the book, wouldn't everyone be left with nothing?

Wanyan Hongsheng grew increasingly anxious seeing his subordinate lost for words. Now, trying to find someone else to speak up would be too late, leaving him no choice but to step in personally.

"I've heard the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master hides great secrets regarding the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, is that what Mr. Ye encountered?" Wanyan Hongsheng asked aloud, subtly altering his voice to avoid being remembered.

"Yes, yes, the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master indeed contains secrets about the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates!"

"Ye Qing, what about these secrets? Surely you must have seen them!"

The crowd erupted in excitement; secrets about the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates were critical desires for everyone.

"Regarding this question, Mr. Ye truly does not know how to respond!" Ye Qing sighed and said: "I only obtained this ancient book from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master, and as for other items, truly I did not see. Let alone any secret about the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates!"

"Ye Qing, do you really think we will believe you?" Fang Tianliang shouted, prompted by a glance from Wanyan Hongsheng.

"Whether you believe or not, Mr. Ye cannot say much. If disbelief prevails, Mr. Ye will simply take this book back!" Ye Qing stated.

As the crowd hesitated about what to do, suddenly an elderly man in a Taoist robe stood out, proclaiming: "I believe what Mr. Ye says!"

Seeing this elder, many were caught off guard, with a few already recognizing his identity.

"Is he the Blue-robed Elder Daoist, hasn't he passed away?"

"The cultivation techniques of the Taoist Sect are truly formidable; this Blue-robed Elder Daoist is nearly one hundred fifty years old, isn't he?"

"Who knows, but reportedly this elder has significant research into the Taoist Sect, perhaps he recognizes those Taoist Incantations?"

The crowd whispered among themselves, focusing on the Blue-robed Elder Daoist, eager to hear what he would say.

"Thank you, elder!" Ye Qing expressed gratitude, clasping his hand towards the Blue-robed Elder Daoist.

"No need for courtesy!" the Blue-robed Elder Daoist emerged from the crowd, saying: "I understand what everyone is questioning, so perhaps you could all listen to me speak a word?"

Everyone promptly nodded in agreement; given the Blue-robed Elder Daoist's seniority alone, he was acknowledged as truly venerable. Also, he understood Taoist Incantations, so who wouldn't listen!

"When I say I believe Mr. Ye's words, it's not empty talk but with cause!" the Blue-robed Elder Daoist picked up the ancient book from the table, saying: "Do any of you know what Secret Manual this ancient book actually is?"

Most shook their heads; only a few present understood Taoist Incantations. Others genuinely couldn't identify the script on the book.

"This ancient book is called Returning Origin Technique!" the Blue-robed Elder Daoist declared slowly.

"Returning Origin Technique?" The crowd was astonished, with someone exclaiming: "What's its relation to the Primal Mysterious Body?"

"I don't know what connection this Secret Manual has with the Primal Mysterious Body, but it indeed is Returning Origin Technique!" the Blue-robed Elder Daoist stated: "The Primal Mysterious Body is one of the Taoist Sect's most top-level secret techniques and has been lost for thousands of years. In later generations, no methods related to cultivating the Primal Mysterious Body exist; this is considered the Taoist Sect's greatest regret. Now with this Returning Origin Technique, perhaps the Primal Mysterious Body can truly be rediscovered!"

The crowd also recognized the power of the Primal Mysterious Body, not only equal to the Buddhist Sect's Vajra Indestructible Body or the Demon Sect's Indestructible Demon Body in power, but also able to extend life and provide longevity, making it highly significant. If this truly was the Returning Origin Technique, then everyone will strive desperately to seize it!

"I understand the skepticism if Mr. Ye is deceiving, but if he were to deceive, why would he use a Returning Origin Technique to deceive?" the Blue-robed Elder Daoist continued, "Moreover, the Return to Origin Sacred Body has been lost thousands of years; even if he wished to fabricate a Returning Origin Technique, it would be impossible. So, this Returning Origin Technique likely came from the Tomb of Ghost Valley Master!"

The Blue-robed Elder Daoist's analysis prompted the crowd to nod in agreement, though Wanyan Hongsheng frowned deeply. He hadn't anticipated this Secret Technique to be Returning Origin Technique, which significantly complicated matters. From the name alone, it surely had undeniable ties to the Taoist Sect's top-level secret technique Primal Mysterious Body. Such a manual couldn't fall into outsiders' hands without causing great trouble for the Wanyan Family!

"And what about the great secrets of Heaven Earth Man Three Gates?" Fang Tianliang persisted, shouting: "There's only Returning Origin Technique, without secrets about Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, who would believe it?"
