As soon as we got here down, we have been stopped in our tracks whereas we gazed on the rocks. There was no seeming entrance to the mentioned caves, if it weren’t for Xi Son’s affirmation that these rocks weren’t pure, nobody may ever be capable to persuade me in any other case.

I assumed excessive arduous and low on the place the doorway to those rocks could possibly be however got here to no favorable reply.

“Ought to I break them?”

“And threat the chance of destroying the doorway? There are too many variables and issues in danger, maybe this might even be a check that we have to determine earlier than getting into. I say we spend slightly little bit of time considering, fascinated about all potentialities earlier than performing rashly then struggling penalties we do not need. In any case, this can be a cave made by an ascendant.” I spoke.

“I am shocked you realize concerning the Ascendant stage of cultivation, it is uncommon to seek out individuals with such huge information even after they’re nonetheless younger cultivators.” Xi Son mentioned whereas delivering a stab in between his phrases, stating that I am far weaker for my information. He would possibly as nicely say that I used to be really tightening the noose round my neck, however higher hold my paranoia in verify. Now I must focus.

I acquired nearer to the boulder formation and deduced that if there was going to be an entrance, there ought to be a gate, and most rocks right here have been too small to behave as a gate, in addition to the biggest one amongst them. I slowly climbed up and tried to know how this boulder would act as a gate whereas it appeared like a totally strange outsized tall boulder.

Then it hit me like a practice. And I grinned.

I climbed down and took a number of steps again, “I believe I figured it out,” I replied.

Xi Son waited for me to reply.

“Right here, the grass, why is it this small, it ought to have been thick and overgrown, but it by no means went previous this space. Then that fowl’s nest, it does not look pure, most birds would often lay their nests on timber, and their nests will not be aas completely spherical as that one.” I replied.

“I do not actually perceive.”

“That is one other type of inscription, a formation, nay, a restriction. It is a puzzle that solely those that can see can unlock.” I replied.

“However I fail to spot a key to mentioned restriction.” Xi Son mentioned.

“As a result of there is no such thing as a key,” I replied and sat down in a meditative state.

The person frowned, unable to know.

“That is really a clock, it’ll open by itself at a sure time, although I do not know when, the big boulder is performing because the clock’s longer hand, then you’ve the opposite boulders performing because the hours of the day. I presume that when the big boulder’s shadow is over the fowl’s nest, then one thing will occur.”

And that did not look like it will take quite a lot of time, because it solely took a number of hours earlier than the solar moved, inflicting the bigger boulder’s shadow to cowl the nest, after which I felt a small vibration, virtually delicate, however to Xi Son, it was loud sufficient that it woke him from his meditation with a large grin on his face.

But, his expression disappeared virtually instantly when nothing appeared to have modified.

I additionally discovered myself in a perplexing scenario, unable to discern the correct solution to enter this ‘gate’.

Xi Son’s pervasive Divine Sense swept proper by way of the boulders with no indicators of any change. However I did not fall to despair.

“The bronze plates, can I see them?” I requested.

And the noble offered them virtually too eagerly. Simply as I grabbed the plates, attempting to see if I may determine one thing, certainly one of them shone brightly in my hand.

On the boulder, there was a seam that I did not discover earlier than, and it most likely was hidden, however the seam was an ideal sq..

I positioned the sq. shining plate on it and instantly the large boulder shook and actually opened up like an iron maiden.

Contained in the boulder was a tunnel that led down.

“Effectively, that labored,” I mumbled.

I gave the remainder of the plates again to Xi Son, who eagerly pocketed them and jumped into the tunnel, not giving heed to what doable risks an Ascendant Cultivator’s cave may entail.

I sighed as I adopted after him, leaping contained in the small gap throughout the boulder I fell all the way down to the darkish unknown. Not desirous to die flattened on the bottom as a result of my incapacity to fly, I unceremoniously pulled out my flying sword and plated my ft above it mid-fall.

The sword swooped down and carried my weight with no seen pressure. On this darkness, it was slightly bit arduous to see the place Xi Son was, however not unimaginable.

I pulled my finger and used my inexperienced flame, the identical flame I used to mild my pipe with once I was smoking Joyful Weed with Elder Yun.

The small flame danced because it lit the darkish collapse inexperienced mild.

The cave wasn’t huge, however it was deep, it was like a big nicely that led down. I descended, whereas Xi Son raced ahead. He appeared considering no matter an Ascendant’s cave would entail in treasures and assets, however I used to be extra curious on why an Ascendant would construct a collapse such a distant aircraft space.

As soon as we arrived on the backside, I noticed Xi Son standing in entrance of a sq. platform, frowning.

“What’s incorrect?” I requested.

“This, this can be a long-range teleportation platform, it must be powered with non secular stones to activate. Although I’ve, I am actually reluctant to half with them…” Xi Son mentioned.

And he was proper, Religious Stones, although ineffective for me except I take advantage of them to energy X, for a daily cultivator they’ll use them to domesticate. In contrast to drugs that restore vitality, Spirit Stones can bolster one’s inside Qi and assist them domesticate to larger realms, there are uncommon drugs that may do the identical impact, however nothing is as Pure as Spirit Stones, in spite of everything, Spirit Stones are the condensed type of Heavenly Power, given form into small marble-like objects that may energy an individual with no unwanted effects as would drugs and their impurities that they go away within the physique.

“I want if I may assist, however the few Spirit Stones I’ve I already used them for my challenge, I solely have some weak ones,” I said as I pulled out hundreds of normal Spirit Stones that I acquired from the cultivators that attempted to kill me within the Poison Cave.

“Good, that is greater than sufficient, Amount is high quality in itself.” Xi Son mentioned as he pulled one other two thousand to my thousand Spirit Stones.

Although it pained me to half with so many Stones, I needed to be a ‘half’ of this expedition, no less than now, Xi Son would really feel apprehensive from outright ending my life, no less than, he would really feel slight guilt now that I am really serving to him with out regard to my wealth. Or so I imagine.

I nonetheless have X able to exit at a second’s discover if Xi Son proved a risk, however I ought to keep passive for now.

Xi Son waved his hand, carrying all of the spirit stones and putting them on the platform, which immediately devoured them, turning them to mud and lit up.

A number of runes shone brightly beneath the platform, I used to be fascinated with the complexity of mentioned runes earlier than Xi Son gestured for me to comply with whereas saying, “Although I respect your want for information, these runes are historic and would require quite a lot of time learning to not point out correctly utilizing them. It will be finest to not waste time attempting to determine these items lest the gate closes.” Xi Son mentioned.

However I did not want to review them proper now, I memorized the entire platform, all because of my Thoughts’s Eye, a severely overpowered potential, although I am positive each cultivator has it, relating to photographic reminiscence, it proved past useful once I wanted to review this afterward.

I stood subsequent to Xi Son and instantly the teleportation gate lit up, and I felt as if my physique was being disintegrated molecule by molecule, and instantly my sight went darkish earlier than it was assaulted by a shiny pervasive mild.

Opening my eyes, I discovered myself in a big swath of inexperienced fertile land. I might have sworn that we have been ejected outdoors of the cave if not for the dense heavenly vitality that was swirling about on this space.

“My God, the Religious Power in right here is a number of folds stronger than again on the capital.” Xi Son said the plain.

However for me, it did not matter if it was thick or skinny, I am unable to domesticate non secular vitality, however that is not sufficient to place a damper on my temper. In any case, excessive non secular vitality signifies that non secular herbs are extra vulnerable to bloom and blossom in such areas.

And the poison god’s guide had already despatched me a personal message, extra like telepathic audio that a number of herbs may show helpful to me on this space.

“We must always discover the realm, let’s break up up, and right here,” Xi Son mentioned, giving me a jade.

“If you end up at risk, simply break this and I will seem as quickly as doable. I would not need you to die on me, not earlier than I repay your assist,” Xi Son mentioned in a trustworthy smile although I felt it was a blatant lie.

He needed to maintain observe of me, maybe I’d get fortunate and discover one thing that will curiosity him.

“Thanks in your benevolence,” I mentioned as I pocketed the jade.

In any case, I even have my means of coping with his monitoring mechanism, except he makes use of Divine Sense to search for me, I may simply alter this jade and ship him to the incorrect location. Although if I discover myself in hassle, I will not hesitate in breaking it, higher have him cope with any shenanigans I’d encounter than me dying meaninglessly in a bloody Ascendant’s cave.

Rattling, typically I do some silly stuff. Nonetheless, each harmful encounter is definitely worth the dangers, the treasures that these expeditions award are definitely worth the dangers, no less than the non secular herbs. Now, let’s have a look at, which means ought to I head to?
