Thunder, Fox Spirit, go on a trip!
As for the benefits, Zhang Chen will take them!
Because Zhang Chen used gunpowder to blast, not only did some stones fly outside, but some also flew inside the stone chamber. Fortunately, it didn’t cause any major damage.
"What kind of thing is that? It goes off without any warning. Even someone at the Twelfth Tier, if they don’t have a natural warning sign or a unique escape skill, could get caught!" Fox Spirit stood in the stone chamber, looking at the post-explosion mess, her eyes filled with horror. Suddenly, she felt that it wasn’t unjust when her physical body was blown to pieces.
Looking at the stunned Fox Spirit, her cherry-like little mouth unable to close, Zhang Chen suddenly had a thought, recalling the various awful smells when he made gunpowder, his lips curling slightly: "Want to learn?"
He seemed like a wolf grandmother, smiling at a little lamb.
This is free labor! With Fox Spirit helping to make gunpowder, how much time could he save?
As for the gunpowder technology leaking out? Right now, Fox Spirit is his skill, and his Soul Hook chain is linked to Fox Spirit, how would she have the opportunity to leak it? As long as he keeps a close eye, Fox Spirit doesn’t have the chance to betray him.
"I can learn? You’re willing to teach me?" Fox Spirit was stunned by his words, her eyes full of disbelief, filled with joy.
This kind of technique was enough to make her drool!
It goes off without any warning, making it impossible to resist. Even Twelfth Tier old-timers could fall if they’re unprepared!
"Learning this technique is very tough, are you sure you want to learn?" Zhang Chen confirmed again.
Fox Spirit nodded vigorously upon hearing this, of course she wanted to learn! Once she mastered this skill, she could probably stand up and seek revenge on an old nemesis.
Hearing this, Zhang Chen laughed, revealing two rows of white teeth: "I’ll teach you when we get back!"
"But for now, I’d trouble you to move the rubble out," Zhang Chen pointed at the numerous scattered stones on the ground.
Seeing the scattered stones everywhere, Fox Spirit’s little face crumpled, but she couldn’t disobey Zhang Chen’s orders, so she could only pick up the stones and throw them into the underground river outside.
"I say, aren’t you thinking about escape? Instead, you’re wasting time here. The sooner we find a way out, the better chance we have. If you keep delaying, we won’t have much time left." Fox Spirit turned to look at Zhang Chen while moving stones.
Zhang Chen watched the delicate, white-clad Fox Spirit continually moving large stones, suddenly feeling a stark contrast, like Lin Daiyu uprooting a weeping willow.
But after Fox Spirit moved for a while, she looked at Zhang Chen, who was leisurely watching from the side, becoming unhappy: "I say... can’t you help a little? Look at my tiny strength, with these thin arms, isn’t it hard moving back and forth? Can’t you have a little tenderness?"
"You are my skill right now! Have you ever seen someone cherish their own skill? And since you’re in skill state, shouldn’t you not feel tired?" Zhang Chen unhesitatingly struck back at Fox Spirit’s words.
Fox Spirit didn’t speak anymore, just started cursing at Zhang Chen, muttering continuously while moving stones.
Watching the submissive Fox Spirit, especially as she panted heavily, moving large stones, Zhang Chen was in a great mood.
Fox Spirit didn’t tire, and in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the stone chamber was cleared out. Then Zhang Chen, holding the Luminous Pearl, approached one wall. He didn’t look at the Human Race’s scroll; he wanted to look at the Demon Race’s scroll to draw some learning from it.
The orange Qi Mechanism he saw outside earlier came from the wall mural.
The stone chamber was spacious, about twenty meters high. The Luminous Pearl’s light barely illuminated it, but Zhang Chen wasn’t troubled. He directly manipulated Fox Spirit to float in mid-air, hovering back and forth on the stone wall, using the Luminous Pearl’s light to illuminate it.
"It’s actually a mural," Zhang Chen said, surprised.
"This mural is where our Qingqiu Race acquired the Visualization Secret Technique. Our Qingqiu Race can touch the mysterious Spiritual Internal Refining Technique, also from this scroll. As long as you visualize this picture and grasp its true meaning, you can enter the marvelous Mental Sensing Realm, using that realm to refine the soul and grow strong enough to achieve Soul Emergence. But this scroll is too dangerous, suitable only for my demon kind to visualize, so don’t visualize it. If you go insane, dissolved into thin air, don’t drag me down." Fox Spirit hovered in mid-air, using the Luminous Pearl to illuminate the scroll.
Zhang Chen carefully examined the lines on the stone wall, carved about a foot deep, soft and perfect without any pause, as if someone had completed it in one go.
"The Power of the Ancient Gods is truly incredible," Zhang Chen said, looking at the depth of the marks, observing that the lines were undamaged, as if, for the one who inscribed them, the bluestone was like flowing water, without any obstruction. Fresh chapters posted on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝·𝘧𝙞𝙧𝙚·𝔫𝔢𝔱
"Only if the person’s hand is sharp enough can they carve through the stone wall as if cutting through water, without causing any damage," Zhang Chen mused internally.
At that moment, Zhang Chen’s eyes were on the lines on the stone wall, but the Luminous Pearl’s light was too dim, unable to fully illuminate the wall mural at once. Zhang Chen could only see scattered lines on the wall but couldn’t make out the entire outline of the lines or what was carved on the wall.
