Chapter 413: Core Formation Treasures [Subscribe Requested]
What on earth made Luo Qingni think that I would follow her arrangements?
Zhou Chun pondered again and again and felt that there was only one possibility.
If he didn't follow the Message Talisman at the crucial moment, Luo Qingni might reveal the news that he had a Third Order Flood Dragon and Millennium Dragon Transformation Grass.
That should indeed pose a significant threat to him.
Besides, Zhou Chun didn't believe that Luo Qingni, having met only a few times, would naively expect him to help her out of friendship.
But was he really afraid that Luo Qingni would leak the news of his owning a Third Order Flood Dragon and the Millennium Dragon Transformation Grass?
Not necessarily!
He could simply stop mingling in the Great Zhou Kingdom!
Zhou Chun pondered over this and felt that he seemed to be getting himself twisted into knots.
That's why they say you should never guess a woman's mind!
Unable to guess, Zhou Chun decided not to bother: "Forget it, I won't think about it anymore. If I do see her again, I'll just casually ask her about it!"
Then he put the Message Talisman into his chest pocket and let the Wood Charm lead him along the shore of Muli Lake, searching for Spirit Grass and Spiritual Medicine.
He intended to stay near Muli Lake for a few days. If Luo Qingni's Message Talisman showed no reaction after several days, he wouldn't wait any longer. He would wander the prairie, taking in the sights and unique Demon Beasts of Doran Prairie.
...
On the other hand, after Yan Qiyang and Luo Qingni rode the Blue-Black Giant Turtle into Muli Lake, they also encountered quite a few aquatic Demon Beasts.
However, the Blue-Black Giant Turtle was an upper-grade Second Order Demon Beast. Ordinary Demon Beasts dared not approach it, and even if a fearless Second Order Demon Beast did approach, it would be killed on the spot by Yan Qiyang using a Talisman he had prepared in advance.
Meanwhile, Luo Qingni focused on steering the Blue-Black Giant Turtle.
After who knows how long of underwater travel, the Blue-Black Giant Turtle suddenly started circling in one area of the water.
Each time it swam into the area ahead, it would soon return to the place it had entered, wastefully expending considerable physical and Mana energy.
After several such attempts, without needing instructions from Luo Qingni, the turtle also looked at the waters ahead with confusion and fear, not daring to go any further.
On the turtle's back, however, Yan Qiyang showed no sign of panic and instead sighed with a sense of wonder, "This 'Grand Reversal of Grand Universe Array' truly lives up to being a legendary Forbidden Formation. Even with a detailed map, each time we arrive here, we fail to notice anything unusual. We need to hit the wall a few times before we can determine the exact location!"
Listening to his words, Luo Qingni spoke indifferently, "If it weren't for such a mysterious array protecting it, this dwelling located above Muli Lake would have been discovered by the 'Multi-Winged Clan' long ago. How could it still be waiting for us to come!"
"Yes, who would have thought that above this Doran Prairie's Muli Lake, there lies an ancient dwelling established by a predecessor of the Human Clan!" said Yan Qiyang with a slight smile on his face. After speaking, he raised his hand and pulled out an ancient-looking Jade Talisman.
Looking at Luo Qingni's hand, no one knew when but she also had a similar Jade Talisman in her grasp.
Then both of them infused Mana into their respective Jade Talismans, which soon radiated a layer of white light that enveloped them.
At this moment, Yan Qiyang was the first to leave the turtle's back. He lunged forward, and his figure instantly vanished from Luo Qingni's sight.
Seeing this, Luo Qingni also followed suit, leaving the turtle's back and disappearing from the spot.
But the Blue-Black Giant Turtle was left behind, and, as if instructed, it lay down on the lakebed below, concealing its aura.
Moments later, the figures of Yan Qiyang and Luo Qingni successively appeared on a bluestone plaza.
A closer look revealed that the bluestone plaza was on an island, and above the island, some thirty feet in the air, was a white barrier dome.
Standing on the plaza, Yan Qiyang and Luo Qingni could see waterbirds flying through the distant sky and feel the warmth of the sun and the flow of the wind through the white barrier.
But both knew that this island, cloaked by the 'Grand Reversal of Grand Universe Array', allowed wind and rain to enter but not living creatures!
Unless one held the same token for entry as they did, no one else could reach the island even if they knew it existed.
Unless a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator took personal action to break through the array!
At that time, after Yan Qiyang and Luo Qingni stood on the bluestone plaza for a while to acclimate, Yan Qiyang was the first to speak, "Although we lost Brother Mo during the last exploration and completely figured out the situation in the garden, this time, no matter the cost, we must succeed in securing the Five Elements Spirit Fruit from that tree!"
Hearing this, Luo Qingni also expressed her agreement, "Naturally. Now, we lack nothing but the condensation of a Golden Core. A Five Elements Spirit Fruit can increase the success rate by thirty percent. With one in hand, there will be no doubt in successfully forming a Golden Core!"
Saying so, they exchanged smiles and then confidently made their way down a certain stone path leading away from the plaza.
At this moment, it could be observed that several stone paths led from the plaza to different destinations. In the distance, one could glimpse palace-like structures amidst the mountains and waters, many of which shimmered with various colors of spiritual light, clearly guarded by potent Forbidden Techniques.
The direction that Yan Qiyang and Luo Qingni took also led towards a cluster of palace buildings.
