[Today’s post is refreshing...]
[The new post is available in the Strange Records. Please check it promptly.]
Zhou Qing had just taken two steps when the crisp notification sound from the system unexpectedly echoed in his mind.
He was initially stunned, then a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily lifted: "How random, but I like your untimely antics."
Immediately, Zhou Qing focused his heart and spirit, opened the Strange Records, and a cyan-gold post appeared before his eyes.
[Copy Post: Within three breaths of the target’s application of a cultivation technique’s divine techniques, place the post on your own forehead, or directly on a jade scroll to copy.]
Seeing the introduction, Zhou Qing felt a rush of excitement.
These posts appearing each time truly always bring unexpected surprises and anticipation.
At this moment, looking at No. 6 walking ahead and opening the way for him, and the seemingly bottomless mine ahead, Zhou Qing suddenly had an idea.
"Perhaps, this Copy Post came at just the right time!"
The ground beneath the mine was soft and muddy, each step feeling like stepping into a swamp. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on noⅴelfire.net
Soon, Zhou Qing noticed that seemingly a fierce battle had taken place in the mine. The deeper they went, the more the walls collapsed.
In some places, sharp ice crystals remained to this day, reflecting a chilling light in the dim ambiance.
It appeared these were the traces left by No. 6’s true body when it previously came to explore and took away some precious items.
"To outsiders, this mine might seem to have no exploration value left, but actually, there’s more to discover inside!"
Finally reaching the bottom of the mine, No. 6 stopped, took out a crimson bone from her storage bag.
As soon as the bone appeared, the blood within Zhou Qing’s meridians halted momentarily, even the Golden Crow Burning Sky Scripture began to operate automatically, causing a hot golden halo around his body before quickly calming down.
Zhou Qing squinted, tightly staring at the bone.
The bone was entirely scarlet, as if just retrieved from a sea of blood, threads of blood Qi lingered around it, faintly carrying a mournful phoenix cry.
Seeing this, No. 6 explained in a low voice: "This is the genuine Blood Phoenix Bone, also the divine bone I simulated hundreds of times from this mine, making me certain of the secret here."
After finishing, No. 6’s hands quickly formed seals, and in an instant, countless spirit seals emitting dazzling light streamed from her fingertips.
A myriad of spirit seals enveloped it, and within moments, the Blood Phoenix Bone seemed activated, emitting blinding blood light that resonated with the spirit seals, buzzing loudly.
Soon, strange changes occurred in the stone wall at the mine’s bottom.
The originally rough and hard stone wall transformed into a calm lake, rippling gently, layers of waves spreading out.
Amid the ripples, space twisted, faintly revealing a pitch-black passage.
This scene resembled the abyss where the Golden-winged Roc had previously fallen.
Turning to Zhou Qing, No. 6’s eyes glinted with excitement, saying, "It’s here, follow me!"
Saying this, she took a deep breath and stepped into the ripples first, her figure instantly disappearing within.
Curious, Zhou Qing gritted his teeth and followed.
Passing through the ripples, a denser and more humid stench hit him, the smell like a mix of centuries-old rotted meat and the salty tang of the deep sea, making him almost want to vomit...
Forcing himself to endure the discomfort, Zhou Qing opened his eyes to survey the surroundings, noticing countless cocoons hanging from the ceiling of the cave.
Each cocoon was semi-transparent, faintly revealing humanoid creatures curled up inside.
On the surrounding cave walls, a luminescent slime flowed, snaking down the walls and gathering in the lower areas.
The unpleasant smell emanated from there.
At this moment, No. 6 made a "shh" gesture, eyes full of caution.
Understanding, Zhou Qing nodded, sensing that the creatures inside the cocoons were alive, exuding a violent and dangerous aura.
"I need that thing, is there a way to obtain it?" No. 6 slightly turned, whispering with an almost inaudible volume.
Following the direction pointed by No. 6, Zhou Qing saw an ancient stone platform at the center of the cave, with a blood-colored scroll placed on top.
Beside the platform, an ancient divine medicine grew, seemingly carved from ice, with a round white fruit at its tip, faint threads of spiritual Qi emanating from it.
There was no scent, but Zhou Qing felt it was akin to seeing the few green leaves on the ancient tree in his Pocket World.
It must contain immense vitality and potent medicinal power.
This was definitely a true divine medicine.
As Zhou Qing marveled secretly, the white fruit suddenly flashed and transformed into a small white bird, sleeping soundly on the divine medicine’s branch.
Its slender form, snow-white feathers free of impurities, soft down gently fluctuated with its even breaths.
Especially, its head tucked under its wing, looked adorably clumsy.
The sight made Zhou Qing’s pupils contract.
Divine medicine transforming?
At this moment, No. 6 subtly approached Zhou Qing, gently tugged his sleeve, and pointed to another direction.
Zhou Qing followed her direction, seeing a blood-stained cloth moving like a nimble black serpent among the hanging cocoons above.
