As Yusuf Zuck rushed into the Alchemy Cave, he was completely stunned, for what unfolded before his eyes was not any formation map, nor any furnace, but rather intricately complex chanical equipnt.
Indeed, it was chanical equipnt arranged like an assembly line, spanning across the entire cave.
Of course, these pieces of equipnt differed from mundane technology; firstly, their shapes were bizarre, and secondly, they appeared rough in build. In essence, they were machine tools for manufacturing organ beasts.
Yusuf initially assud that things were crafted in a furnace, but who would have thought that cultivators would also use chanical equipnt to create things?
A thick layer of dust covered all the machine tools, golden floating dust, and the entire mine was vast, filled with these assembly line-like machine tools from top to bottom, from left to right.
Yusuf hadn’t studied chanical manufacturing, so he didn’t understand or know how to use these machines.
He wandered around, hoping to find the formation map ntioned by the giant bird, but unfortunately, besides the assembly line of machine tools, there was nothing else. It was very likely that these assembly lines were all abandoned.
"Hmm? The machine tool over there is plugged into the wall?" Upon careful inspection, Yusuf suddenly discovered that the end of the assembly line was inserted into the wall, which should also serve as the exit of the assembly line.
Curious, he walked to the wall, thought for a mont, and climbed inside the machine, following the massive passage within the machinery.
Indeed, there was also a tunnel within the wall, a 360-degree circular tunnel, akin to a gun barrel, albeit thicker and longer.
Once he crawled inside, he could walk upright without any issues; it was akin to a mountain tunnel.
The passage was approximately five hundred ters long, and when he reached the end and looked down, his eyes were painfully stung by rays of golden light.
The end of the passage led to a large cavern, and the cavern was filled entirely with semi-finished organ beasts, like heaps of scrap iron piled into the shape of a mountain.
It was a cavern of semi-finished products; so organ beasts lacked heads, so lacked claws, and so had no fur. It seed to be an abandoned area.
"Hmm? There’s another cave ahead!" Upon sweeping around, Yusuf realized that this was a series of interconnected caves: the previous one was a workshop, this one a workshop of semi-finished products, and there was another cave ahead—could that be the finished product workshop?
Yusuf leaped over quickly, swiftly passing through the circular five-hundred-ter cavern.
"Whew~" When he reached the third cave, he took a deep breath, because... just as he anticipated, it was a finished product workshop. However, the workshop only contained ten organ beasts, and all ten were with their eyes shut, clearly untriggered and unactivated!
"Haha, this is a good thing, once activated, they’ll be imnsely useful!" Yusuf laughed heartily, for these organ beasts were truly impervious to blades and bullets. Even his Emperor Sword couldn’t break them—how tough must they be?
It’s fair to say that each organ beast was equivalent to an exceptional Dao Lord, perhaps even more powerful!
And if these organ beasts gained spiritual wisdom, they could possibly rival longevity itself!
"I’ll take them." Despite not knowing how to activate them, Yusuf decided to take them first; soone outside might know how. With a wave of his sleeve, the ten organ beasts were collected into the Blue Sea and Cloud Sky.
"Hmm? There’s another cave behind?" As he collected the ten organ beasts, he unexpectedly noticed another opening in the wall where the organ beasts had previously been—it was smaller, preventing the organ beasts from entering.
Curiously, he jumped over and continued inside, eventually discovering a fourth cave.
However, while traversing halfway through the passage, unexpectedly, the Purple Blood Beads within his mind started pulsating, thumping vigorously!
Yusuf was imnsely surprised—the Purple Blood Beads were pulsating again, this ti not as a warning but excitedly jumping!
What did this indicate? It indicated the presence of a significant supplent for the Purple Blood Beads up ahead, possibly even the Source of the Universe!
With an exuberant howl, Yusuf sprinted forward, arriving at the edge of the fourth cave in a flash.
This fourth cave held neither machine tools nor organ beasts—there was rely a stone bed, a ditation cushion, and a bookshelf.
The bed was uncovered, but there were a dozen or so books on the bookshelf.
Though Yusuf hadn’t been fond of reading as a child, as an adult he knew that books were truly a Golden House, deeply intertwined with a world’s civilization, history, and strength.
Books are the cradles of human civilization dissemination.
"Hmm? The Blood Beads are still pulsating, but where is the supplent?" Yusuf now had a clear overview, for everything within the cave was in his sight, yet he couldn’t spot any supplent!
And without a supplent, why did the Purple Blood Beads continue to pulse?
"No, no, there must be sothing, it must be hidden sowhere!" Yusuf jumped down, swiftly advancing to the bookshelf, picking up a thread-bound ancient book, but oddly, he couldn’t recognize the characters on the book.
Indeed, they were characters from so obscure world; he didn’t recognize them at all.
Neither did the second book, nor the third—even the dozen or so books shared similar characters, and he comprehended none.
Eager to find the supplent, he decided to collect these books first, then overturned the bookshelf, searching for hidden chanisms or secret compartnts behind it.
But alas, he found nothing.
He then overturned the bed, but there was no chanism or secret compartnt, nor beneath the ditation cushion.
"What’s going on?" Yusuf pondered, surveying the limited space of the cave. He had scrutinized everything, but there was nothing else—so where could the supplent be?
"Whew~" Taking two deep breaths, he tried calming himself down, closing his eyes to carefully sense his surroundings.
Stepping to the left resulted in the Blood Beads’ usual reaction, as did stepping to the right, then forward, and finally backward.
"Hmm, when stepping backward, the Blood Beads seed to pulse slightly faster!" As he was fully imrsed, he sensed even the subtlest changes in the Blood Beads!
Thus, he turned around and approached a certain wall.
Sure enough, as he moved closer to the wall, the pulsing frequency of the Purple Blood Beads intensified.
The treasure was within or behind this wall, yet after examining it from top to bottom, Yusuf found no hidden compartnts or chanisms—the treasure was deeply concealed!
He retrieved the Epoch Etching Blade once again, swiftly cutting through the wall with precision.
The blade was incredibly sharp, and as he cut with agility, he carved through the wall, constantly advancing forward!
After cutting through over two hundred ters, sweating profusely, he continued his effort, and finally, at the last stroke, a sliver of blinding white light pierced through from the other side.
At that mont, the Purple Blood Beads began to throb violently.
"Open for !" With a powerful kick, Yusuf broke through the final stone barrier, revealing a mass of dazzling white light surging toward him!
