Xin Lin walked into the Stone Gate, first pushing it with her hands, but the Stone Gate did not budge.
This Stone Gate was sowhat peculiar; it seed to be connected to the wall without any crevice.
Upon closer inspection of the Stone Gate, there were so patterns on its surface.
The patterns were irregular, scattered here and there.
At first glance, Xin Lin thought they resembled a modern jigsaw puzzle, seeming to require assembly to form a complete picture.
"That is the Five Elents Pattern, a very unique Spiritual Power pattern, said to be drawn using Spiritual Power, and similarly, it requires Spiritual Power to move and complete them. Wu Xuan and I are completely clueless about Spiritual Power."
Wu Yuan muttered nearby.
He and Wu Xuan’s cultivation was not weak, but they were utterly lacking in thods related to Spiritual Power.
Left with no choice, the two had co to Purple Cloud City, the closest to Black Water Lake, to find a Great Spirit Master.
Who would have known that despite being the capital, Purple Cloud City had very few Great Spirit Masters.
The few Great Spirit Masters that were there had been recruited by the Imperial Family or other powerful figures.
Eager to avoid alarming the Dragon Ascending Royal Family, their only thod was civilian recruitnt.
Wu Yuan, who happened to know the people from Black Brilliance Castle, knew there was a Black Brilliance Market here and used his old rcenary identity "Xuanyuan" to look for a Great Spirit Master.
Who would have expected that, one thing leading to another, they found Xin Lin.
Even more unexpectedly, Xin Lin was only a Spirit Warrior at the ti, quite a distance from becoming a Great Spirit Master.
However, at that mont, the two also discovered that other forces had found the location of the Dragon Ancient Tomb, and they couldn’t afford to look for a new Great Spirit Master. They had no choice but to bring Xin Lin along, treating a dead horse as if it’s still alive.
Fortunately, within just a few days, Xin Lin’s cultivation had also risen to that of a Spirit Master.
Yet, the two still weren’t sure if Xin Lin’s Spirit Master abilities could open this Stone Gate.
Xin Lin knocked on the Stone Gate, then pressed her ear against it.
The Stone Gate seed to block everything inside, and even with Fu Xi’s Energy focused at the bottom of her eyes, she couldn’t see through it.
Xin Lin tried to rge so of her Fire Spirit into the Stone Gate.
When the Fire Spirit rged into the stone, there were no significant changes initially.
Gradually, the patterns on it began to move.
"It’s really moving! I knew it, it has to rely on a Spirit Master."
Wu Yuan exclaid with joy.
The stone pattern shifted half an inch, but Xin Lin felt a significant consumption of her Fire Spirit.
This stone pattern truly devoured Spiritual Power.
Xin Lin took a breath and was about to inject another portion of Fire Spirit.
But as soon as she retracted the Fire Spirit slightly, the stone pattern returned to its original state.
Xin Lin was surprised and tried again.
Whenever she slightly withdrew so Spiritual Power, the moved stone pattern would imdiately revert to its original state.
"What?"
Wu Xuan and Wu Yuan exchanged glances, not knowing why this was happening.
"To piece together this kind of Five Elents Pattern, it must be completed in one go. If failure occurs, the order gets disrupted and you have to start over, all the spent Spiritual Power is wasted."
Xin Lin shook her head.
The Stone Gate had many stone patterns; if she used her Spiritual Power to push the patterns, she wouldn’t last one-third of the way before running out of Spiritual Power.
She did have so Qi Stones on her, but those were reserved for critical monts, to save her life.
"What should we do then? Shall we let your Overlord Egg try? It looks like it has plenty of Spiritual Power, probably no less than a Great Spirit Master."
Wu Yuan was also at a loss.
They had no idea solving a stone pattern would be so demanding.
Xin Lin shook her head.
The Overlord Egg didn’t like this place, and it had a bad temper. If they really forced it to act, Xin Lin suspected, it might just spark a small fla and blow up the Stone Gate.
