After burying the ashes.

Mu Jinyu carefully explored all the nearby prohibitory traps, retrieved all the bone arrows, and took the opportunity to watch the runes flashing when the restrictions were triggered.

To see if there were any runes he hadn't mastered.

But there weren't any.

Then, Mu Jinyu gripped the Dragon Spear tightly, raising his gaze to sweep across the entire folded space, and swung it fiercely, the spear's light bursting out, instantly sweeping the eight directions with energy!

He wanted to see if there were any other concealing runes he hadn't mastered that prevented him from perceiving any remaining restrictions nearby.

"Boom!!"

Unfortunately, after the energy swept in all directions, no restrictions were triggered.

"Alright, you can come over now."

Mu Jinyu turned back to look at Nai Mucha and Wang Tengfei and the others, calling them over.

"Okay."

Upon hearing Mu Jinyu, Nai Mucha finally stepped forward towards Mu Jinyu.

Setting foot in this connected folded space area.

Wang Tengfei and the others followed closely behind, coming along.

Mu Jinyu, however, paid them no mind, stepping towards the light fog wall at the forefront.

If nothing unexpected happened, the light fog wall here should be stronger than the one he just cracked.

He intended to continue studying the runes contained in the light fog wall, keep deciphering them, and clear the way to Mount Tai.

"Hum!"

"Clang!!"

Mu Jinyu took out a magic treasure, continuing to tentatively attack the light fog and carefully observe the flashing runes when the restrictions activated.

While Mu Jinyu was taking action.

Wang Tengfei and the seven others didn't watch but instead acted on their own, carefully exploring the spiritual medicine they had long been eyeing in this broader folded space.

They even ended up snatching from each other.

Indeed, Mu Jinyu had only picked up the treasure fragments and the black bone arrows from the restrictions here, regarding the existing spiritual medicine, Mu Jinyu only picked a few stalks with unclear effects on him, while the spiritual medicines he had in his Yinlong Mountain medicine field, he didn't touch.

Even if it's a rank four spiritual medicine, even if it's a thousand-year-old medicine, he was not tempted.

Yes, not all spiritual medicines can survive ten thousand years and become ancient medicines.

Most spiritual medicines can only live for a few thousand years, after which they will rise and fall, wither and die.

The thousand-year-old medicines here visibly show countless rotting spiritual medicine traces around their roots, indicating that the currently growing thousand-year spiritual medicines have regrown from the seeds of spiritual medicines that vigorously lived and then withered over generations.

Such spiritual medicines hold no significance to Mu Jinyu, who can foster spiritual medicine growth.

Considering their cooperative relationship, even if they were of minimal help to him, Mu Jinyu wouldn't take everything, leaving them with nothing.

They snatched from each other, but not ostentatiously; once something was taken by others and pocketed, they would completely give up.

Because they didn't dare to cause too much commotion to avoid angering Mu Jinyu and getting expelled, which would prevent them from gaining anything.

Mu Jinyu was aware of their petty actions but simply ignored them, spending a few minutes, perhaps due to mastering several ancient runes, even facing a stronger light fog wall now, it didn't take him long to crack it.

Simultaneously, he mastered a new rune from it.

"Boom!"

The light fog wall collapsed, revealing the folded space behind it, connecting with it.

Mu Jinyu looked up to see that the unfolded space this time held nothing — no spiritual medicine, no remains, no treasure fragments.

Apparently, this was a plainly placed folded space, already explored by others.

"Have you been to this space before?"

Mu Jinyu turned to Wang Tengfei and the others, asking.

Wang Tengfei scrutinized the space ahead for a moment, nodded slowly, and said, "I've been here, but I arrived late, and this space had already been explored with nothing left."

Zhuo Bufan and Monk Liaowu also confirmed they were not the first to arrive in this space.

Mu Jinyu acknowledged with a nod, not probing further, indifferent to anything taken away, only asking casually.

If they knew, he'd ask more to see if he missed any information; if not, he'd leave it at that.

Then, Mu Jinyu stepped into this folded space, sweeping it horizontally with the Dragon Spear, yet no restrictions were triggered.

Clearly, this folded space was thoroughly exploited by someone before.

With a helpless shake of his head, Mu Jinyu proceeded towards the front light fog wall, continuing to crack it.

For him, the greatest gain from this journey was these light fog walls, which segmented and divided each space. The runes he covertly learned elevated his restriction proficiency significantly.

Thus, he no longer cared about obtaining any magic treasures.

"Bang!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!!"

Half a day later.

Mu Jinyu, accompanied by Wang Tengfei and others, all the way cracked the restrictions in the light fog walls and covertly learned the runes, arriving approximately midway up Mount Tai.

During this journey, they cleared countless folded spaces, some of which were previously explored, while others still hid many relics, bones, treasure fragments, spiritual medicine, spirit fruits, and some stone booklets…

The stone booklets seemed to document something, but the texts were unrecognizable, leaving uncertain whether they contained cultivation methods. In the end, Mu Jinyu also took them.

"Whiz!"

As Mu Jinyu grabbed a crimson bone arrow, his body shook, and the tiger's mouth cracked, blood seeping out.

By midway up the mountain, the restrictions and traps existing in the folded spaces began to wield arrows with destructive power reaching the late stage of the Unity Realm.

Mu Jinyu had been barely sustaining by leveraging the enhanced power from the "True Dragon Mystic Taoism."

But now, Mu Jinyu knew he was nearing his limit.

This time, he wouldn't be able to climb directly to the peak of Mount Tai.

"Uncle Mu, are you alright?"

Nai Mucha, seeing Mu Jinyu bleeding again, asked with a face showing some concern.

Mu Jinyu shook his head, put away the red bone arrow, circulated some Life Source Energy to heal the wound slightly, then looked towards the light fog wall ahead.

"Dragon Master, maybe… we should head back?"

"Yeah, we've gained quite a lot this trip, no need to risk it further."

Wang Tengfei and the seven others, seeing Mu Jinyu still intending to continue cracking the light fog wall, felt their hearts racing and quickly urged him.

After all, Mu Jinyu had fought his way up here; most folded spaces here remained unexplored, and once the restrictions were triggered, the arrows' power seemed capable of destroying heaven and earth.

They were very worried whether in the next cleared folded space if restrictions were activated and Mu Jinyu couldn't deflect them, would they, staying behind Mu Jinyu, be wiped out in one wave?

Their hearts beat with trepidation, desiring to leave, but at this point, without Mu Jinyu's word to leave, they dared not.

Mu Jinyu said, "Let's crack one more wall; if there's anything behind, we'll head back."

He also understood he was nearing his limit, not wanting futile risk, thus planning to break one more light fog wall, and after fully mastering a rune he yet hadn't, they could return.

"Boom!!"

After Mu Jinyu's several tentative attacks.

The profound runes embedded in the light fog wall were finally fully mastered by Mu Jinyu.

Just as Mu Jinyu showed a pleased expression, ready to finalize the exploration of the folded space ahead and leave after grabbing what he desired, he suddenly heard a weak yet familiar voice:

"Mu... Master Mu?"
