232 The Correct Use of the Black Stone Slab (3)
“What is this place?”
Standing there, Jiang Ming felt like he had been teleported to a new world. He was floating, and his spiritual consciousness seemed like it was about to break away from his body.
He realized that he had probably come to a terrifying secret area.
Jiang Ming looked at the fog-filled passage behind him, took a deep breath, turned around, and walked forward. Since he had already come here, he could only explore further.
Jiang Ming, who was heading to the ruins, did not know that the moment he poured his blood Qi into the black stone slab, the cave behind him had also changed.
* * *
In the cave, a burly young man stood by the side of the stone pool with his hands behind his back. He stared at the black-haired man’s body that fell into the stone pool and the purple crystal dust left at the bottom. His brows furrowed.
“Who did this?” the burly young man gritted his teeth and asked with a cold glint in his eyes. Although he looked young, his eyes were filled with wisdom and his aura was terrifying. All of this showed that he had an extraordinary identity.
In his hand, the black sword trembled as if it wanted to escape. However, it was tightly held and could not break free.
Li Qianya, Qi Yue, and the others stood at the side with cautious looks in their eyes.
“Why is he here?” Li Qianya’s heart trembled. He was Lu Qianshang. He was a prodigy from the previous generation of the Cangming Grotto-Heaven. He was a Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator and was ranked in the top ten of his generation in the Feather Kingdom.
Li Qianya’s eyes flickered. He realized that this secret place was far beyond his expectations. Otherwise, the Cangming Grotto-Heaven would not have sent such an important person.
“Damn it, it’s too late to call for help now,” Li Qianya cursed in his heart.
Fei Ming, who was covered in blood, quickly stepped forward and said, “Master Lu, it was an individual cultivator called Yan Chixia who stole all the ten-thousand-year-old rock spirit blood. He has now escaped into the foggy passage.”
“Idiot!” Lu Qianshang’s eyes were stormy. “Open your eyes and take a look. It’s not just the ten-thousand-year-old rock spirit blood that’s all gone. The rock spirit blood crystal is all gone too! It’s a rare spiritual item that is hard to find in this world. It’s a rare treasure that can completely change the innate ability of an immortal cultivator!”
Fei Ming’s expression changed drastically when he heard this. He hurriedly rushed to the side of the stone pool. When he saw the remaining crystal dust, his face instantly paled and revealed an expression of extreme regret.
He clenched his fists tightly. If he had known this would happen, he would not have snatched the black sword. So what if the sect had given him a precious treasure? For a cultivator who had not yet reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, the rock spirit blood crystal was invaluable!
Lu Qianshang was furious and shouted, “Take good care of everything here. I’ll go after that b*stard. How dare he kill the people of my sect and steal our things? He must be tired of living!”
His eyes were cold as he charged into the foggy passage.
Fei Ming quickly said, “Master Lu, be careful. This passage is very strange. It will suppress your cultivation. Furthermore, the deeper you go, the more spiritual energy you will consume. It’s extremely dangerous.”
“I don’t need you to tell me, I know what this is,” Lu Qianshang said calmly. It was as if he were no stranger to the gray fog. He walked into the passage with a calm expression.
On the surface of his body, a faint layer of blood-red mist rose. It was the power of blood Qi.
Fei Ming’s face revealed a look of realization and he immediately calmed down. “So, only martial artists can enter this passage. Master Lu is a dual cultivator. Yan Chixia is dead for sure!”
Lu Qianshang’s eyes were also calm. Yan Chixia was just a kid in the Qi Refinement Realm. He probably would not be able to run far in this place before his spiritual energy ran out. He could just kill him.
However, at this moment, an unexpected thing happened.
The black sword in Lu Qianshang’s hand suddenly trembled violently, and blood-red ripples spread out from the sword.
The tip of the black sword was pointed into the foggy passage. It seemed to have sensed something and was trying to break free from Lu Qianshang’s control.
Lu Qianshang’s expression changed slightly. It was as if the black sword had gone berserk, and the power that burst out had caught him off guard.
The blood-red ripples on the black sword exploded wildly, and the entire cave shook. A terrifying martial arts aura actually swept out from the black sword at this moment.
Even Lu Qianshang fell into a trance at this moment.
The black sword left his hand and plunged into the passage, disappearing into the fog without looking back.
The people in the cave finally returned to their senses. Fei Ming was dumbfounded. After spending so much effort, were they going to gain nothing?
Li Qianya looked down and stood still. However, he was laughing wildly in his heart. Amazing! This was too f*cking amazing!
This was karma for breaking the rules.
Li Qianya shook his head slightly and prayed that Yan Chixia would be able to escape from this place as soon as possible.
“Damn it!”
Lu Qianshang’s expression changed drastically, and he did not have time to give any orders. He stomped his feet and chased after the black sword. He rushed into the foggy passage and disappeared from everyone’s sight.
