C4481 In the Secret Chamber at the Bottom of the Lake.
C4481 In the Secret Chamber at the Bottom of the Lake.
A hint of anticipation appeared in Ye Feng's eyes. Then, he realized that Miss Mu Rong had already shown signs of exhaustion. It was obvious that the long period of intense combat was a little difficult for her.
"The test is temporarily over. You can use the power of the Lingdong Jade Pendant now."
Ye Feng said indifferently.
"Alright!"
Miss Mu Rong immediately became spirited when she heard this. Her exhaustion was swept away, and her entire aura became confident and arrogant.
The crocodiles that were attacking Miss Mu Rong clearly felt that something was amiss. However, they did not know what had happened. After being stunned for a moment, they once again launched their attacks.
This time, Miss Mu Rong unleashed all of her firepower. Blade lights swept out like a storm.
In just half a quarter of an hour, all of the crocodiles were killed. They did not bleed, but they turned into white pearls that floated in the air.
"Hu, hu..."
Miss Mu Rong panted continuously. Although she did not consume too much energy by borrowing the power of the Lingdong Jade Pendant, the long period of intense combat was still very tiring for her.
"Rest well. Put away these pearls and the Turin Grass below."
Ye Feng smiled indifferently when he saw this and reminded her.
"Yes, I know."
Miss Mu Rong nodded and replied weakly with her tongue stuck out like a puppy.
At this moment, a ripple appeared in the lake below. A small whirlpool appeared in the center of the lake, and the whirlpool grew bigger and bigger. In the blink of an eye, it covered the entire lake.
Ye Feng raised his eyebrows in shock. Miss Mu Rong's eyes widened, and she even forgot to breathe.
The scene at the bottom of the lake was revealed. It was an ancient stone slab, and there were dense runes drawn on it. There was a hole in the middle of the slab, looking like a keyhole.
"A keyhole?"
Ye Feng blinked. Just as he was about to go closer and take a look, he felt a commotion in the sky. A golden halo slowly descended from the sky.
When the golden halo reached a distance of ten feet above them, it dissipated, revealing a golden key.
"Interesting."
Ye Feng's eyes lit up. He was excited. If he killed all the crocodiles in the lake, would there be a special reward?
"What is this?"
Miss Mu Rong also revealed a curious expression. She did not expect that a key would fall from the sky.
"It should be a reward."
Ye Feng thought for a moment, but he did not let Miss Mu Rong do it. Instead, he took the key and flashed to the bottom of the lake.
"You hide far away first. Be careful not to get into an accident."
Ye Feng waved his hand at Miss Mu Rong.
"Oh."
Miss Mu Rong obediently flew further away. She had absolute trust in Ye Feng.
Seeing this, Ye Feng decisively inserted the key into the hole on the stone floor. As for the dense runes carved on the stone floor, Ye Feng did not understand them, so he did not continue to study them.
"Creak …"
After the key entered the hole, the sound of gears operating came from the bottom of the stone floor. The dense runes lit up one after another, and the light became even more dazzling, finally drowning Ye Feng.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
When Miss Mu Rong saw this scene, she could not help but shout out nervously.
However, there was no response from Miss Mu Rong in the light. It was just emitting a dazzling light.
"This is …"
Ye Feng slowly looked around. The moment the light bloomed, Ye Feng felt the ground beneath his feet. Then, he came to the place in front of him.
This was a secret room. A broken old box was floating quietly in the secret room.
Ye Feng raised his head and looked. There was a halo above his head. He must have fallen from this halo.
Since that was the case, he could leave this secret room through the halo.
After thinking through this, Ye Feng calmly walked forward. He did not feel any danger. This was definitely a reward. Even if it was not a reward, it was not a threat to him.
Observing the box closely, he could not see any clues. Although there were many holes on the box, he could not see what was inside through the holes. The box seemed to only be dark, so dark that it could not be dissolved.
Ye Feng was silent for a moment. He knew that there was no result from observing from the outside, so he decisively opened the box.
The moment the box was opened, a jade bottle appeared in the box.
The light was released from the bottle, and it was a round and smooth Pill. Even though it was separated by the jade bottle, Ye Feng could still feel the pure Spiritual Qi.
"Spiritual Pill?"
Ye Feng's brows slightly raised. This was indeed a Spiritual Pill. It was a Spiritual Pill refined by an alchemist with spirit herbs as the main ingredient and all kinds of medicinal herbs as the supplementary ingredients.
Spiritual Pills were the same as spirit herbs. They were both used to increase one's cultivation and nourish one's soul, but the effects were very different.
The time it took to refine a Spiritual Pill was faster than refining a spirit herb, but the increase in strength was ten times or even dozens of times more than a spirit herb.
The difference between them was partly determined by the quality of the spirit herb, and partly determined by the level of the alchemist.
However, no matter what, Spiritual Pills were much more precious than spirit herbs. There were at least fifty Spiritual Pills in this jade bottle, and the harvest this time was not small.
"That's right."
Ye Feng revealed a smile and carefully looked around. He wanted to see what else was in this secret room, but he was disappointed to find that this secret room was empty.
"Is that so?"
Ye Feng's brows raised slightly. He felt that he had figured out some of the rules of the Abode of Gods.
Killing the beasts of the Abode of Gods could give him a white pearl, and if he killed all the beasts in an area, he could obtain the key and the reward.
In other words, when the beasts of the Sky Heavenly Cave gathered together, they were usually guarding a secret room under a stone slab. As long as they killed all of the beasts, they would be able to open the stone slab and enter the secret room.
As for the treasures in the stone slab secret room, they were probably all stored in the box. The items in the box were probably fixed, or they might be random...
Ye Feng still did not understand many of the details, but he felt that the general situation was like this. His guess might not be accurate, but it was probably not far off.
At the same time, Miss Mu Rong was still anxiously waiting in the sky. She saw five figures not far away, and they were quickly approaching.
"Stop immediately, don't get any closer!"
Miss Mu Rong had yet to see the appearance of the five people clearly, but she was worried that the five people did not have any good intentions, so she hurriedly shouted.
However, when she heard Miss Mu Rong's figure, the five people did not care at all and instead increased their speed.
"Not good!"
Miss Mu Rong's expression immediately darkened. She was sure that her shouting was loud enough, and these five people would definitely hear it.
And they were clearly still getting closer, probably with bad intentions.
"Young Master, what should we do now?"
Miss Mu Rong silently activated the power of the Eastern Jade Pendant. A sharp spiritual energy blade appeared in her hand. She was not sure about Ye Feng's safety, and she did not know the situation in the halo. Therefore, she had to protect this halo and not let the five people get closer!
