Seeing this scene, Zhou Qing chuckled silently, recalling that simulation where Second Grandpa re-dug through the wall and appeared, mimicking his actions by placing three crows from the Blood River on his shoulders and head, thus briefly avoiding that Corpse Wax Crow, obtaining the "Yin Yang Skills" amidst the green mist.
Soon, a five-colored ritual altar appeared before him, with eight grooves around it, containing the residual powder and aura of top-grade Spirit Stones.
Zhou Qing crouched down to scrutinize it, seeming to understand sothing.
If I’m not mistaken, we need to fill these eight grooves with corresponding top-grade Spirit Stones to activate it.
At that ti, he would be transported to the other side.
There, if he dug a bit further, it should be the location of that tunnel.
The altar being intact indicates that although the Supre Elders have repaired the tunnel, they couldn’t lock this place.
Gazing at the altar, Zhou Qing couldn’t help admiring.
Second Grandpa is truly a genius, not only can he find the Pocket World but also get transported inside, perfectly avoiding the Gravity Zone.
Born tomb raider!
"Perhaps this is the only secret passage I can sneak through in the future!"
To avoid being discovered, he hurried back and took out a paper, starting to record the condition of the soil around the passage.
Until he reached below the second Fla Spirit Blood Pool again, looking at the still winding and dark passage ahead, Zhou Qing hesitated but returned to the surface first.
Pretending to soak for a while, confirming the Supre Elder hadn’t arrived, he ca down again, beginning to walk along the passage.
He wanted to see where the entry of this passage was located.
After an unknown period, he finally reached the end, then started climbing up the passage wall using both hands and feet.
Soon, he saw a ray of light shining down from above, simultaneously, an overwhelming stench hit him.
Quickly pinching his nose, Zhou Qing frowned, moved a stone above his head cautiously, poked his head out, and froze at the sight.
Because not two ters away was a latrine, no wonder it stank.
Then, his gaze moved forward, and this glance left him utterly stunned.
Because not far away was a courtyard of Core Disciples, and near the window, a girl was intensely focused, ticulously carving a piece of wood with a small knife.
Her appearance, who else could it be but Lu Yaoyao?
After a while, catching his breath, Zhou Qing gently moved the stone back and then leaped down.
For a mont, he was utterly speechless towards Second Grandpa.
Putting the entrance beside a latrine and having a girl disciple living nearby, truly sothing he could think up.
However, on second thoughts, it didn’t seem right.
This passage is quite old. Back then, Lu Yaoyao probably wasn’t even born; most likely, she was arranged to live here after the place was cleaned up.
"The most dangerous places are often the safest, but a latrine—" Zhou Qing still found it hard to fathom.
Mapping the route, he quickly returned, sealing the soil, re-paving the bricks, dispersing Spiritual Power, and restoring Spiritual Liquid to the pool bottom, ensuring nothing leaked before tunneling out.
"Damn, that was thrilling!" Zhou Qing couldn’t help but curse.
Then, looking at the full pool of Spiritual Liquid, not daring to delay, he swiftly settled his mind and began absorbing using the "Yin Yang Skills"...
Ti passed bit by bit, watching the Blood Pool’s color start to fade, Zhou Qing slowed his absorption.
"No wonder it’s ’Yin Yang Skills’. After wandering such a big circle, the absorption and refinent speed is several tis faster than the ’Taiqing Profound Qi Skills’ I used when I first ca!"
Zhou Qing sighed.
Although he wanted to absorb all the dicinal power, it didn’t match his current body’s condition.
For an ordinary person, such Spiritual Power not only didn’t burst his body but nearly completed the refinent. Let check, what’s the deal?
Or maybe the pool bottom leaked?
Zhou Qing smiled wryly, decided to stop the absorption, particularly since the three pieces of Fla Spirit Blood Ointnt he had were far superior to the liquid before him.
Not long after, Duanmu Shu’s voice sounded from outside.
"Zhou Qing, how’s the soak?"
Hearing the voice, Zhou Qing quickly got dressed, erged flushed, then bowed respectfully: "Thank you, Supre Elder. I gained a lot."
Duanmu Shu nodded, went in to inspect roughly, and couldn’t help but show a surprised expression.
"Good absorption! Body refining is a worthwhile path for cultivation!" Duanmu Shu encouraged.
Zhou Qing thanked her again and then left.
Before leaving, he carefully examined the surroundings, comparing it with the passage map in his hand.
"A bit confused. Don’t know if the third blood pool is above that passage?"
If it is, next ti directly sneak down from Lu Yaoyao’s side, not only take a bath but also dig so more Fla Spirit Blood Ointnt.
Just like that, he walked to the front mountain, and passing by the exchange hall, unexpectedly encountered Senior Sister Shi Zhen.
"Senior Sister, you’re not in seclusion?" Zhou Qing exclaid.
Seeing Zhou Qing, Shi Zhen imdiately showed a grateful look, then slightly embarrassedly said: "After the last failed seclusion, I almost exhausted the Spirit Stones accumulated over the years. Thanks to the Nascent Soul Formation Pill you gave, I gained so confidence."
