"Little loachie said that it's best not to run around recklessly. This place is more dangerous!"
Lu Zhiruo translated, "Especially below!"
"Ziqi, what do you think?"
Sun Mo muttered to himself.
"At the very least, we should understand why the spirit qi is so dense, right?"
Li Ziqi's curiosity was about to explode. "Didn't little loachie say that the spirit qi gushed up from below? Let's go down and take a look then! "
"Alright, but you guys have to listen to me. When I say retreat, no one is allowed to refute!"
Sun Mo instructed.
The spirit qi roaming dragon didn't wish to go to the lower level of this palace, but Lu Zhiruo wanted to go. It had no choice but to continue leading the way to prevent them from taking the wrong path and encountering trouble.
The lower they went, the denser the spirit qi was and the more spirit crystals there were. The light they emitted was sufficient to illuminate the place. Moreover, the blue glow made one feel as though they had entered a dreamland.
Sun Mo and the other three had already thrown away their torches.
A five-meter-tall spirit-wind wandered past aimlessly.
"What a big one!"
Lu Zhiruo, who was hiding behind the wall, patted her chest with lingering fear.
They were different from the spirit-winds above. Although they were few in number, they were all mutated. Not only were their bodies huge and strong, but there were also great changes in their forms.
Their bodies were formed from blue spirit crystals, but their joints were connected by many tornadoes.
Because they were glowing, they were like human-shaped lighthouses when they walked past.
The spirit qi roaming dragon was very sensitive to spirit qi fluctuations. Hence, it could detect elemental lifeforms that were rich in spirit qi in advance and avoid them.
On the way here, Sun Mo saw many lifeforms. However, because they had been living in such a place with dense spirit qi for a long period of time, they had all mutated.
Almost every one of them had a spirit crystal carapace growing on their bodies.
"All of these are worth money!"
Ying Baiwu's eyes shone. She wanted nothing more than to sweep through the place and crush all of them, picking up their corpses to sell for money.
"This place doesn't seem right!"
Sun Mo suddenly halted his steps.
"What's wrong?"
The papaya girl didn't understand.
"It has already been a few minutes since we encountered any living creatures. This is not normal. Perhaps, we have entered the territory of a certain species of darkness."
Just as Sun Mo finished speaking, two balls of red light suddenly lit up at the corner in front of them. After that, a crab that was much bigger than a tank waved its pincers and crawled out arrogantly.
Sun Mo immediately activated Divine Sight.
Mutated Rock Crab's combat strength was average, but because of its mutated carapace, it was extremely sturdy, like a layer of heavy armor.
Note: Low IQ, bad temper, carnivorous, weak point of the lower jaw.
"Teacher, should we retreat first?"
Li Ziqi asked.
"Don't panic!"
After all, Sun Mo wasn't a native of the Nine Provinces. His train of thought hadn't changed yet. When he saw this mutated rock crab, his first reaction was that if he brought this thing back, how much money could he sell it for?
If it was a female crab, how much crab roe would it have? Also, these two big pincers were definitely filled with meat. If they were dipped in garlic sauce and accompanied with yellow wine, it would definitely be super delicious.
The Mutated Rock Crab began to accelerate.
Sun Mo took out the spirit rune paper that depicted the Flame Explosion Technique and tore it apart.
First, a few sparks flickered. After that, they extended into many lines of fire, entangling together. Within a few seconds, they formed a fireball the size of a coconut. With a swoosh, it shot toward the mutated rock crab.
Boom!
The large fireball collided with the mutated rock crab's body. It was like an RPG rocket hitting a tank, directly exploding.
Pala! Pala!
The crab's shell burned and fell down, emitting a concentrated sound.
The mutated rock crab's defense was indeed outstanding. It actually didn't die after suffering such a powerful Flame Explosion Ball. However, it couldn't run anymore and slammed its head into the wall.
Ying Baiwu sniffed. "It smells a little fragrant."
"System, can the mutated rock crab be an ingredient for the spicy fragrant crab burger?"
Sun Mo asked.
Right now, he had a recipe for a dark and strange flavor called the spicy fragrant crab burger.
The spicy fragrant crab burger that was cooked according to the recipe would produce an enraging effect after being eaten while it was hot. It would cause the user to become irritable and easily angered, and their combat strength would receive a significant increase. It would last for about three minutes.
Using an analogy, it was equivalent to the explosive potion in games. After eating the crab burger, one would be able to unleash a wave of explosive power.
"I'm not your mother. Can't you research it yourself? Don't ask me if you have any questions."
The system scolded.
"Is your great aunt coming? Why is your temper so bad? "
Sun Mo wasn't going to take this lying down and directly retorted.
Ying Baiwu prepared to pick up the corpse, but she stopped after taking a few steps. It was because another large group of rock crabs surged out from the corner ahead. Although they weren't as big as this one, there were too many of them.
Clatter clatter!
The rock crabs rushed over. If someone with trypophobia saw this, their scalp would definitely turn numb and they would die on the spot.
"What are you thinking about? Quickly run! "
Sun Mo carried Li Ziqi and broke into a mad dash.
...
Zhang Qianlin had been living a very unhappy life recently. He felt that the entire world was against him.
After traveling for three years, Zhang Qianlin had finally returned. He felt that with his attainments in the study of spirit runes, even if he wasn't in the top three in the Central Province Academy, it wouldn't be a problem for him to be in the top five.
Next, it would be time for him to display his shocking talent and fame. At that time, he would become the most famous teacher in the Central Province Academy.
What Liu Mubai? Go and eat shit!
At that time, he would propose to An Xinhui. She would also admire his talent and handsome looks and agree to this marriage.
After that, An Xinhui would give up her position and become a female assistant to assist him.
As for him, he would become the headmaster of the Central Province Academy and lead the school back to its peak, standing at the top of the Nine Greats.
Because of these great achievements, the school would fund a bronze statue of him and place it at the main entrance of the school for future students to admire.
Look, what a perfect life this was!
Zhang Qianlin had already planned everything out, but who knew that when he took the first step, he would sprain his ankle? No, not only did he sprain his ankle, even his leg was almost broken.
A new teacher named Black Doggy Sun had messed up his plans.
God Hands?
This name was simply too resounding, so resounding that it caused Zhang Qianlin to feel despair. Just when he was unwilling to admit defeat and wanted to use the study of spirit runes that he was the most proficient in, he discovered to his horror that Sun Mo's attainments in the study of spirit runes were even higher than his.
Spirit rune potted plants, deleting spirit runes, drawing rapidly, and drawing spirit runes that he didn't recognize...
All these things that Sun Mo could casually do were things that he couldn't do.
Zhang Qianlin felt as though he had become a stepping stone, and his beautiful dream was being shattered. In this lifetime, he probably wouldn't have any hope of marrying An Xinhui and trampling Sun Mo to death.
However, as the saying went, 'out of extreme misfortune comes bliss'. Who wouldn't eat dumplings during the new year?
Zhang Qianlin looked at the ancient altar before him and couldn't hold back the agitation in his heart. He laughed out loud.
"Haha!"
"Haha!"
This feeling was as though the goddess of luck had taken the initiative to remove her underwear and climbed onto his body. She then sat down and was preparing to move on her own.
Zhang Qianlin was arrogant because he truly had some capabilities.
At a young age, he had read many books. Moreover, because his father Zhang Hanfu was working in the Central Province Academy and because he was talented and intelligent, he was deeply doted on by the old headmaster. Therefore, he had many opportunities to seek guidance from the old headmaster. In fact, he could even borrow books from the old headmaster's private library.
Zhang Qianlin didn't recognize the altar before him, but this didn't hinder his deduction.
Through the construction style, the pattern of the totem, and the age of the stone, Zhang Qianlin deduced that this should be an ancient sealing formation.
"No matter what is sealed inside, from today onward, it will be my slave!"
Zhang Qianlin was very complacent.
There would definitely be a powerful mysterious species of darkness sealed in such an ancient sealing formation. If the other party didn't sign a soul contract and become his slave, he wouldn't help it break the seal.
Just think about it. Would a mysterious species of darkness that had been sealed for thousands or even tens of thousands of years be able to resist the temptation of freedom?
Definitely not!
Even in his dreams, Zhang Qianlin didn't expect that he would be able to come here after chasing after the eight-gate cloud. It was truly a blessing in disguise.
"Can you hear me? If you can, then answer me! "
Zhang Qianlin shouted.
This altar was made of bronze and there were strange and profound totem runes carved on it. However, the center of the altar was concave and was about the size of two basketball courts.
Zhang Qianlin stood at the edge and glanced inside. He discovered that other than the blue spring water, there was nothing else. However, the spring water kept on emitting spirit qi, and it was so dense that it made one feel intoxicated.
At the thought of this, Zhang Qianlin felt happy again. Even if he didn't obtain any treasures, just these spirit crystals and the dense spirit qi were already an astronomical sum of wealth.
His own clan was about to rise, it was a matter of course!
No one replied. Hence, Zhang Qianlin shouted even louder and even threw a huge rock into the spring water.
Plop!
"Is there anyone? If there isn't, I'm leaving! "
Zhang Qianlin frowned. (Could I have guessed wrongly?) Just when he was about to panic, an imposing and majestic voice that seemed to come from ancient times rang out.
"Insignificant bug, who gave you the courage to disturb the slumber of an ancient king?"
Zhang Qianlin's spirit stirred. Honestly speaking, he felt a little cowardly, nervous, and afraid when he heard this voice. However, these emotions soon turned into agitation and excitement.
"There's no need to be afraid. This is an ancient sealing formation. It won't be able to escape. Otherwise, if an ancient king like this were to appear, the Darkness Continent would have long been turned upside down."
Zhang Qianlin consoled himself and started to consider how to negotiate so that he could maximize his benefits.
One couldn't help but say that Zhang Qianlin was still very impressive. The current him was bold yet meticulous, calm, and wise, and he started to scheme against an ancient king.
"Hehe, is it slumber? From my point of view, you are imprisoned here and have no way to break free! "
Zhang Qianlin mocked. "Only I can help you leave this place and regain your freedom!"
The entire hall fell silent once again.
Zhang Qianlin frowned. Even if the other party was enraged, it was better than remaining silent. If that was the case, he wouldn't be able to judge what the other party was thinking!
"However, this time around, I must become the winner."
Zhang Qianlin swore. "Sun Mo, just you wait. After I subdue this ancient king, the first thing I will kill after I leave this place is you!"
