Chapter 543: Chapter 543
"Huh, how did your aura increase so quickly?" Seeing the atmosphere still somewhat awkward, Zhou Qing’s mind raced, and he hurriedly changed the topic, exclaiming in surprise.
Lu Yaoyao’s eyes sparkled with excitement upon hearing this, and she became more energetic, her eyebrows dancing with animation as she exclaimed, "Master Lu taught me a special cultivation technique. In less than three years, I will be able to break through to the mid-Nascent Soul stage!"
Zhou Qing was also filled with excitement and relief upon hearing this.
It seemed that the usually cold and aloof Lu Yuanzhi genuinely cared for Junior Sister Lu, which put his mind at ease.
"Breaking through requires Spirit Stones. I have some here, take them!" Zhou Qing said as he pulled out a Storage Bag and handed it to her.
But Lu Yaoyao gently shook her head, "No need, I have enough. Don’t worry, I won’t easily owe favors... Don’t change the subject, drink the soup quickly, then I’m going to find Second Grandpa. Don’t just drink any random wine."
With that, her cheeks puffed up again, full of mock anger.
Zhou Qing’s expression changed instantly, and he quickly spoke to stop her, "No, no, no, Junior Sister Lu, listen to me. Drinking wine this time actually helps me too. Second Grandpa’s wine is not something just anyone can drink. Although I’ve been drunk for a few days, my Spiritual Power has greatly increased..."
An hour later, Zhou Qing’s mouth was dry, and he had used all his arguments, finally persuading Lu Yaoyao not to go find Second Grandpa.
Moreover, he promised her that he would no longer touch a drop of alcohol in the future, only then did he send her off to the Cave Mansion’s entrance.
"Oh, Junior Sister Lu is here! Old Fourth, this academy really is a hidden dragon and crouching tiger place. Look at what I’ve got, fifty whole jars of Spirit Wine!"
At this moment, Yan Xiaohu’s loud voice came from afar, having gone out for a drink earlier.
He looked excited, hugging three jars of wine, making his steps a bit unsteady.
"Although it’s not as good as what Second Grandpa invited you to drink, it’ll still do the job... Old Fourth, what’s wrong with your eyes?"
Yan Xiaohu was puzzled, then he grinned at Lu Yaoyao, "It’s perfect that Junior Sister Lu is here, let’s drink for three days and nights! And let’s call Senior Brother Li Daoxuan..."
The more Yan Xiaohu spoke, the more excited he got, but suddenly he couldn’t help shivering.
The smile on his face instantly froze, "It’s so cold. Why is there a chill that carries killing intent? Junior Sister Lu, what are you doing? I’m your senior brother, save me—"
Past midnight, Zhou Qing took out the red scroll and began to appraise it immediately.
[Blood Phoenix Race’s Inheritance Treasure Skills: This is an extremely rare Inscription Level cultivation technique and divine technique—Hundred Tribulations Blood Curtain, which requires an Extreme Dao Weapon to unlock. If it can evolve into the ultimate three thousand Phoenix Flame Dao Patterns, it can be comparable to a Tao Trace Level divine technique.]
Seeing the feedback, Zhou Qing was stunned on the spot.
He couldn’t understand it, but he did see that it required an Extreme Dao Weapon to unlock.
If he remembered correctly, the grinding disc in Taiqing Sect’s Gravity Zone was a fragment from the Extreme Dao Weapon, Void Ring.
The Broken Sword was obtained from there.
The grinding disc served as the key to the entire Gravity Zone, guarding Taiqing Sect for generations, but even so, it was just a fragment of an Extreme Dao Weapon.
It showed just how terrifying a true Extreme Dao Weapon really was.
He had never even seen such a weapon, let alone used it to open the scroll.
Did he waste a replication talisman to get this thing?
Zhou Qing felt a wave of frustration.
After sighing and seemingly thinking of something, he hurriedly took out the Tetanus, trying to fiddle with the scroll.
However, after trying for a long time, he still couldn’t open it.
Looking at the Broken Sword, he felt a sense of self-mockery.
It seemed he was overthinking.
After waiting another night, he tried appraising it again, getting the exact same result, leaving him no choice but to decide to seek out Second Grandpa.
Inside the Cave Mansion!
Second Grandpa stood in front of the stone table, eyes fixed on the ancient scroll in Zhou Qing’s hands, as if he were petrified, unable to recover for a long while.
Zhou Qing looked earnest, his expression full of sincerity, afraid that Second Grandpa wouldn’t believe him.
"Grandpa, I’m not lying. I really dug this out. You know, my Cave Mansion now houses two people, so space is a bit cramped. I was planning to expand it a bit, and while digging, I found this."
"Right, there was also a note attached to the scroll at the time."
Zhou Qing frowned slightly, trying hard to recall, "The note said it needed an Extreme Dao Weapon to unlock and mentioned Inscription Level and Tao Trace Level. Grandpa, what does this mean?" Follow current novᴇls on novel·fiɾe·net
Zhou Qing asked in confusion.
Upon hearing this, Second Grandpa’s face twitched involuntarily, especially when he heard the words "Tao Trace Level," his body trembled fiercely, and he grabbed the scroll instantly, as if afraid others would snatch it away.
"The note... where is it?" Second Grandpa’s voice trembled with urgency.
Zhou Qing sighed helplessly, explaining, "It’s been too long. The moment I touched it, it disintegrated into powder, leaving nothing behind."
Second Grandpa, upon hearing this, grew anxious in an instant. Without another word, he grabbed Zhou Qing’s arm and dragged him to his Cave Mansion.
On the way, Second Grandpa’s expression was solemn, and he said nothing.
Zhou Qing felt like his arm was about to dislocate, but it also confirmed that the scroll from the forbidden area indeed contained extraordinary secrets.
The two quickly arrived at Zhou Qing’s Cave Mansion.
Fortunately, Zhou Qing had prepared beforehand, digging a large hole deep inside the Cave Mansion, with scattered dirt and stones littered around, looking like a mess.
