Fu Caiwei was shocked. "Could it be Jade Green?"
Chu Li shook his head. "You can't drink it, it's poisonous."
He could feel the danger hidden in this dark green pool. Even if it was him, he would not have a good time drinking this water. Even if he did not die, he would lose a layer of skin. He sighed and said, "The owner of this cave is really vicious."
Many people would be overjoyed when they encountered such a situation. They thought that they had encountered a miracle. It was rare spirit milk, but it was actually poisonous. Moreover, it emitted a faint fragrance. No one could reject it.
Fu Caiwei asked, "Did he purposely make it to harm people?"
"He used a formation to twist it and form this poison," Chu Li said. "Let's go, we'll continue to walk in and avoid this."
Fu Caiwei did not refute and walked straight in.
The two of them skimmed over the small green pond and walked inside. In the corner of the stone cave, they saw a bookshelf. It was empty, and there was a pile of powder next to it. It was moistened by the moisture. With one look, they knew that these books had been crushed.
"See that? That's how vicious it is, "Fu Caiwei scoffed.
Chu Li looked at the pile of powder and gently flicked it. A gust of wind from his finger swept towards the powder, showing the purity of his finger energy. It was a gentle force. Amidst the powder, an iron plate appeared on the ground.
The iron plate was about the size of a palm. It was a combination of a semicircle and a square. There was a faint pattern on it.
Fu Caiwei was shocked. Her eyes widened as she looked at the iron plate.
Chu Li waved his hand. The iron plate floated up and slowly floated in front of them. It hung in the air and rotated slowly, allowing them to take a closer look.
There was a pattern on it. It seemed to be a sun and a moon. The moon and the moon coexisted, looking rather strange.
Fu Caiwei was about to reach out but stopped. She took out a thin glove and put it on, but she could not notice its existence.
Chu Li picked it up and passed it to her.
Fu Caiwei asked, "Did he leave it on purpose or did he not notice it?"
"Who knows." Chu Li smiled. "Unless he comes back from the dead, no one will know. … The pattern on it is a little strange."
Fu Caiwei examined it carefully and touched it a few times. There was no mechanism, and it was indeed a simple pattern. It could be a token of some sect, or it could be some kind of identity symbol, or it could be a key.
It was almost impossible to guess the origin of this iron plate.
She handed the metal tag back to Chu Li. "It's very likely that it was hidden in these books. He was in a hurry to burn the books, so he didn't notice it."
Chu Li nodded slowly.
Through the observation of Ashes, he knew that this iron plate was not at the bottom. There was a dent on it, but it was not deep, which meant that it was not thrown at the beginning, nor was it thrown at the end, but it was caught in the book.
Did the owner of the cave know about the existence of this iron plate?
This was probably a mystery. No matter how powerful he was, it was impossible for him to know everything.
"Since it's a poison pond," Fu Caiwei said, "then the books on this bookshelf are very important, and the iron plate is also very important."
Chu Li nodded.
Fu Caiwei said, "Unfortunately, it was still destroyed."
Chu Li was a little regretful. "It's even more unfortunate that we can't find out the identity of this person."
If they knew the origin, they could trace it back. Even if they could not find any clues here, they could still search through his identity. There would be a lot of clues. Unfortunately, it was burned completely, and there was not a single trace left. This person was very careful, and it would be difficult to find any flaws.
"Let's go and take a look over there." Chu Li said.
"But this bookshelf was left, isn't it strange?" Fu Caiwei pointed to the antique bookshelf in the corner. "Actually, after I left, when I thought about it, I was very upset that I left the bookshelf behind. Maybe there's something hidden in the bookshelf."
Chu Li stared at the bookshelf and sighed. "Fortunately, the bookshelf was not touched. You guys are really lucky."
He could not help but sigh. Once the bookshelf was touched, even if the two women's martial arts were high, it would be difficult for them to escape unscathed. This bookshelf not only contained opportunities, but also formations. Once it was activated, it would be very troublesome.
The two women's identities were not ordinary, and they had treasures on them. They should be able to escape, but the loss would not be small. They might even delay the opportunity and be trapped by the formation. At that time, they might not be able to escape.
"There's a mechanism on it?" Fu Caiwei asked.
Chu Li said, "Mechanisms and formations are connected one after another. It's better not to touch it. Let's go."
"Since there's a chance, could it be hiding something more important?" Fu Caiwei said. "Something that he can't bear to destroy?"
Chu Li slowly said, "That makes sense!"
His Omniscient Mirror had already seen through everything. There were no treasures, but he suddenly realized that the Omniscient Mirror was also tricked. This formation within a formation had already been activated, but he was not aware of it.
This was specifically targeted at people with a strong spirit like him. Fu Caiwei was not affected at all. This cave owner's method was really clever. It seemed like they were the same kind of people. Both of their souls were far stronger than ordinary people.
Was it because of the Cultivation of Spirit, or was it because she was born like this?
Could it be that there was a second person in the world who reincarnated like her? Possessing innate wisdom, not forgetting the past life?
There were many monks in Buddhism who had innate wisdom, such as the Ten Lifetimes of Buddhahood, and so on. They cultivated through life after life, but these innate wisdom were actually different from her own situation. The so-called innate wisdom was to remember what they had learned in their past life, but not everything could be remembered clearly.
Many things were washed away. The power in the womb was strong, and it was already commendable to remember the cultivation method. This was because the cultivation method was strong enough to resist the washing of the power in the womb.
The requirements of the Soul-Refining Art were too high. It required an extremely powerful soul force and an extremely tyrannical spirit. Otherwise, one would die without a doubt. Did the owner of the cave create this Soul-Refining Art, or did he cultivate this Soul-Refining Art?
No matter which one it was, it was very powerful, but in the end, he died from internal demons.
If he created the Cultivation of Spirit, it was because the technique was not perfect. If he did not create the Cultivation of Spirit, it was because his spirit was not strong enough?
No matter how he thought about it, cultivating the Cultivation of Spirit was extremely dangerous. However, in order to win against Song Wuji and enter the arcane realm, he could not care so much. He could only try.
"Are we going to dismantle it?" Fu Caiwei asked.
Chu Li stretched out his palm like a knife and lightly chopped.
A blade energy condensed in the void and slashed the wooden cabinet with a "chi" sound.
"Bang!" Amidst the loud noise, a strong force surged and brought with it a cloud of white smoke. In the blink of an eye, it filled the entire cave.
Chu Li and Fu Caiwei were surrounded by an invisible force. The white smoke could not get close to them, but it lingered around them.
Chu Li used telepathy and said in Fu Caiwei's ear, "Watch where you step!"
Fu Caiwei quickly leaped and stepped into the air.
The ground sank slightly and then stopped.
Chu Li sighed. This was the trump card. There were already more than ten extremely sharp treasured swords erected. If they were one step slower, they would have been pierced through their feet.
To be able to make the treasured swords approach silently, it was not only because of the attraction of the formation, but also because of the ingenuity of the mechanism.
The swords must contain a strange poison. They were silent, but the danger was concealed by the formation. Those who were trapped in the formation would lose their senses, and it would be difficult to avoid these swords.
"Go down!" Chu Li said.
Fu Caiwei quickly landed on the ground.
She was not afraid of these at all. She was just too lazy to use Fleeting Night Blossoms because of this. Otherwise, she would not be hurt at all.
Chu Li, on the other hand, carefully stared at these mechanisms and dodged them one by one.
