Chapter 173 Mysterious Skeletons, Crimson Spirit Pool
Su Chen and the others sat outside the cave, waiting quietly!
About ten minutes later, the eagle appeared and called out to Shen Qingli a few times.
Shen Qingli's brows relaxed, and she said, "Diao Mao said there's no problem inside, it's very safe!"
"Then, it asked me what 'eagle feather' meant!"
Su Chen hadn't expected that Shen Qingli would have such abilities!
This surprised him somewhat.
His gaze fell on the eagle's feathers, and he said, "It means 'great'!"
After saying that, he beckoned Wu Hao and the others to enter the cave.
There was no foul smell inside the cave; on the contrary, it had a pleasant fragrance.
They ventured deeper and deeper, and after a while they came to see a hole that was only the size of a bowl.
That astonishing spiritual energy emanated from this bowl-sized hole!
"We can't get through this!"
Qi Beifeng said that Su Chen was considering whether to forcefully blast it open.
Shen Qingli had already drawn her sword; the sword light flashed, cleaving the stone wall in two.
A passageway that people can pass through has appeared!
Let's go!
Shen Qingli sheathed her sword, a smile on her face.
Qi Beifeng feigned surprise and said, "Sister-in-law is awesome!!"
Su Chen: "???"
Shen Qingli couldn't suppress the urge to smile, but she still pretended to be aloof.
"Xiao Qi, you can't just call me that!"
After she finished speaking, she took out a bottle of pills.
"I see you were slightly injured earlier. Take this; it's incredibly effective at healing!"
Qi Beifeng couldn't suppress his smile and said, "Thank you so much, sister-in-law!!"
Tang Shufei and Wu Hao's lips twitched, thinking to themselves that this guy truly lived up to his family's reputation as a lackey.
This is simply incomparable!
Then they went inside.
Inside, there was a fairly spacious area, with some crystals on the surrounding stone walls, emitting a faint glow.
And in the middle!
A white skeleton, about three zhang tall, lay there quietly, its body emitting a faint fluorescent glow!
Beside the skeleton was a blood-red pool about ten feet wide.
It contains a blood-red liquid, and the astonishing spiritual energy emanates from within this spiritual pool!
"What is this thing?"
Su Chen couldn't help but speak up, he really couldn't figure out what kind of monster the skeleton was!
Wu Hao and the others chimed in, "We don't know either! I feel like I've never seen a monster like this in any textbooks before!"
"I told you the textbook didn't cover everything!!"
At this moment, Shen Qingli spoke up: "These are the remains of a royal demon beast from the starry sky!"
"I never expected we'd meet here!"
"No wonder there's such a large army of demonic beasts stationed here, so that's why!"
After saying that, she stepped forward and carefully examined the monster's skeleton.
"This spirit pool must have been formed after the demonic beast died and merged with the spiritual veins of this place!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Shufei subconsciously asked, "Sister Shen... oh no, sister-in-law! How did you know this was a royal beast from the starry sky?"
"I recall that none of our human race has ever ventured into space!"
He's acting strangely!
Shen Qingli paused for a moment, then replied, "That's just because you don't know it. Do you really think no one has ever been to the starry sky?"
"But those who went into space never heard from again!"
"I happened to see a record of a similar monster in an ancient book from the Shen family, which is how I made that deduction!"
Upon hearing this, Su Chen nodded and said, "That's true. I've heard Grandpa mention it before!"
Human martial arts civilization has developed to this point, and after so many years of fighting against demonic beasts, how could we possibly have never ventured into the starry sky?!
However, several attempts to explore the area yielded no results!
Ultimately, it's because they were too weak and couldn't protect themselves in space.
Hearing Su Chen say that, Tang Shufei nodded.
He was just curious; he didn't mean anything by it.
At this moment, Wu Hao said, "Boss Su, I'm begging you, please let us in right away!!"
"I can't wait any longer! I feel like ants are crawling all over my body!!"
"Please, just go in for a second, just for a second!!"
Su Chen's lips twitched as he looked at Wu Hao.
This feels like it's saying, "I'll just rub against you, but I won't go in..."
Then, Su Chen spoke up: "Alright, let's hurry up and go inside!"
To be honest, Su Chen was also getting impatient!
Just then, the sound of footsteps approached.
Su Chen frowned suddenly and turned to look behind him, where he saw about ten people walking in through the passage.
These dozen or so people didn't look very old, but their faces were filled with horror!
"What amazing spiritual energy!!"
"Damn, what kind of spirit pool is this? This is the first time I've ever seen one. If I could cultivate in it, my cultivation level would definitely break through!!"
"What kind of skeleton is this? I've never seen anything like it before?"
"I don't know? I've never seen it before."
As they talked, they arrived at the edge of the spirit pool, seemingly oblivious to Su Chen and the others.
Or rather, they simply ignored Su Chen and his group!
Su Chen's face darkened; these guys actually wanted to enter the spirit pool directly.
He stepped forward: "Gentlemen, we discovered this place first, and we also killed the monsters outside!"
"It's a bit inappropriate for you to just pick the peaches halfway through!"
As soon as he said that, the surroundings seemed to fall silent for a moment.
Several pairs of eyes turned to look at Su Chen!
They looked at Su Chen, and when they realized that Su Chen was only at the Meridian Opening Realm, they all dismissed him!
"So what? And then?"
"Just because you said you discovered it first doesn't mean you did?"
"I could have said we found it first!"
A burly man said, "It's obvious they're going to rob us outright!"
Immediately after, another man, who was rather thin, spoke up: "Dude, what are you pretending for?"
"There are numerous demonic beasts outside, most of them at the Meridian Opening Realm, and some even at the Golden Body Realm. You're saying you killed them?"
"What gives you the right?"
"With your cultivation level at the Meridian Opening Realm, is that all you've got?"
The people around him also mocked him, completely disregarding Su Chen!
Su Chen's expression darkened further.
Among these dozen or so people, there are three Golden Body Realm cultivators and five Meridian Opening Realm cultivators, making for a very strong lineup.
But... that doesn't necessarily mean he's no match for him...
At this moment, someone else spoke up: "Alright... go outside and guard the gate!"
"Don't say we're bullying you. Just keep watch at the door for us, and maybe if I'm in a good mood later, I might leave you some soup!"
An arrogant man spoke, his eyes full of disdain.
Su Chen was so angry he laughed!
He raised his hand, and a light imprint condensed between his palms before suddenly striking!
"You want to steal my stuff, huh? And you expect me to guard the gate for you?"
"If I don't beat the shit out of you today, you'll be considered clean..."
