And Tempering An Unsullied Body - Chapter 285

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Due to the dark entrance and the previous panic, Gu Xi, who had always been calm, did not notice it at all.

“Up!”

Without hesitation, Gu Xi shouted and rose up from the ground.

Su Lian and the others also followed without hesitation.

After them, thousands of figures rose up.

!!

In just a breath’s time, many figures rushed into the dark entrance above, but this was only the vast majority.

There were still people who stopped in the tunnel below.

They… had no time to escape.

“I can’t die here!”

“I don’t have a Dao Partner yet! I can’t accept this!”

“It’s not easy for me to cultivate to this point. The Heavens are unfair!”

Mournful voices rang out one after another, accompanied by the loud sound of the mountain walls closing together.

On the other side, there was another wide passageway.

Figures appeared from the spatial vortex one after another, and everyone was on high alert.

When they first saw this passageway, they almost had the urge to turn around and run. Fortunately, they held themselves back.

After a long period of vigilance, there was nothing unusual here.

However, everyone was still silent.

Even though they had successfully entered the spatial vortex, the voices of those who had not escaped just now reverberated in their ears for a long time.

Many of them had bloodshot eyes and were about to cry.

Among those who had died, many of them were their friends, Senior Brothers, and even their own Dao Partners who had been left down there forever.

“It’s all thanks to you this time.” Qing Xue broke the silence and looked at Gu Xi. “We owe you a huge favor.”

Su Lian curled her lips but did not refute.

Qing Xue was right. If it were not for Gu Xi, all of them would have been stuck on the mountain wall forever.

“I was just trying to protect myself.” Gu Xi shook his head and began to size up the environment in front of him.

Although there was still a passageway in front of her, it was not as narrow as before. Not only that, there were countless stone doors on both sides of the passageway.

At this moment, someone had already mustered up the courage to open a stone door. Soon after, a pleasantly surprised shout was heard. “These are all spirit tools!”

Once these words were said, the crowd once again began to stir.

Many people rushed into the stone door one after another. There were also many people who opened other stone doors one after another.

“These are all Cultivation Methods!”

“There are so many spirit herbs here!”

…

One after another, exclamations sounded out. The crowd completely went crazy.

Behind every stone door here, there were a large number of rare treasures!

Although these items were not of outstanding grade, they were all passed down from ancient times!

“Looks like there are quite a few good things here.” Looking at the people shuttling back and forth, Qing Xue said softly.

“I think it’s better for us to leave this place first,” Su Lian glanced at the walls on both sides and said with lingering fear.

She really did not want to experience something like what had just happened.

Gu Xi also nodded in agreement. “Indeed, it’s better to leave this place first. I think these things on the outside aren’t much better. The really good things are all inside.”

As he spoke, Gu Xi looked towards the far end. There, a towering stone door stood quietly.

The few of them looked at each other and simultaneously rushed in the direction of the stone door in the distance.

At this moment, Li Du, Qin Hai, and the other large sects and forces had already quietly slipped towards the stone door at the end. It was obvious that they were also a little afraid of what had happened just now.

Moreover, as people who came from the Vast Expanse Sword Domain, the Raging Fire Valley, and other large sects and factions, they were also not very interested in the things at the periphery.

Under the group’s full speed, they quickly approached the location of the stone door.

However, during the process, they unintentionally glanced at it, causing Gu Xi’s figure to suddenly stop.

Qing Xue and the others at the side also noticed Gu Xi’s strange behavior. They followed his line of sight and looked at an inconspicuous stone door not far away.

Above the stone door was an inconspicuous cauldron.

Without the slightest hesitation, Gu Xi’s figure flashed and appeared in front of the small stone door.

His gaze was fixed on the cauldron carved on the stone door. Gu Xi’s body trembled slightly.

If he was not mistaken, this was an alchemy cauldron!

“What? Have you never seen such a thing as a cauldron?”

Su Lian glanced at the cauldron carved on the stone door. There was no difference between them.

On the other hand, Qing Xue was deep in thought.

“Open it and take a look,” she said softly.

Upon hearing this, Gu Xi nodded and then suddenly pushed open the stone door in front of him.

Boom —

With a dull sound, the stone door opened.

For a moment, dust flew around the room.

Gu Xi waved his hand, and the dust dissipated.

When he saw everything in the room clearly, he could not help but suck in a breath of cold air.

In front of him, there were countless jade bottles. The pill fragrance that assaulted his face made him feel as if he had returned to the eastern continent for a moment.

This was really a Pill Room!

If this was the eastern continent, it would be normal for a Pill Room to appear in the Secret Realm. But now, in the southern continent, this was simply a miracle!

“There are actually so many here…”

Looking at everything in front of her, Qing Xue’s red lips parted slightly. Her eyes were filled with shock.

Medicinal pills, which she had seen in the ancient books, was now placed in front of her like candy. This made her feel a little incredulous for a moment.

On the other hand, Gu Xi’s excitement gradually faded. However, an even bolder guess appeared in his mind!

The thing that should not have appeared in the Secret Realm, and their numbers were so shocking. There was a very big possibility — perhaps the owner of this Secret Realm did not belong to the Southern Continent under his feet!

Perhaps he came from the Eastern Continent!

This did not only mean that the four continents were actually connected, but also meant that he had a chance to find a way to return to the Eastern Continent!

If the master of this Secret Realm really came from the Eastern Continent, then there was an 80% chance that this Secret Realm had a way to return to the Eastern Continent!

As he thought about it, Gu Xi’s breathing gradually became rapid.

“Hey, are you okay?” noticing Gu Xi’s change, Su Lian frowned and asked.

“I’m fine.” Gu Xi shook his head and forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart. He glanced at the shocking amount of pills in front of him and continued, “These are all good things. Put them away.”
