Chapter 376: Spirit Machine Spring Eye
Fang Wuqian, standing in the front, walked into this stone gate first. Gao Yuyao and Duan Xueyi were also unwilling to fall behind and followed up immediately. The two of them hadn't found what they wanted in the alchemy room, so they could only pin their only hope on the back of this last stone gate.
"Eh! Why is there nothing inside here?"
After Song Qingming walked into the stone gate last, he soon heard a sound of angry scolding from Fang Wuqian in the front. After scanning the surroundings, he discovered that this stone room was truly as he said, a room with nothing.
The size of this stone room was about the same as the alchemy room next door, only aside from some dust on the ground and a stone bed against the wall on the side, there was nothing else, not even a table, chair, or stone stool.
After the few looked around in the stone room, they still didn't discover other things in the room, so they could only give up searching and gather together, their faces showing expressions of disappointment one after another.
"Alas! This senior is truly too stingy. In this bedroom for practicing and meditating, there isn't even a meditation cushion. He is truly not taking care of us juniors who came later!" Fang Wuqian sighed, sat directly on the empty stone bed, patted this hard stone with force, and complained somewhat indignantly.
"Fellow Daoist Fang, wait a moment, don't move!"
At this moment, Duan Xueyi, who was closest to Fang Wuqian, suddenly shouted and then closed her eyes.
Her shout instantly attracted the full attention of everyone present. Even Song Qingming, who had already relaxed his heart after entering the stone gate, followed and suddenly became nervous, quietly taking the Azure Water Bell into his hand.
Not only Song Qingming, Gao Yuyao, who was standing beside him, also took out a flying sword and began to scan the surroundings of the stone room very vigilantly. After all, this place was once a Core Formation cultivator's cave dwelling. If something dangerous was truly hidden inside, it wouldn't be strange.
Fortunately, after Duan Xueyi finished speaking, nothing strange happened, and Fang Wuqian, who was sitting on the stone bed, didn't encounter any danger, so Song Qingming and his companion gradually felt relieved.
"Senior Sister Duan, what's wrong? What did you discover!" Gao Yuyao asked Duan Xueyi directly, only to find that after she shouted loudly, she had already walked a few steps forward and arrived at a position not far from Fang Wuqian, and was closing her eyes and pondering, feeling the changes in the spiritual energy around her.
Fang Wuqian, who was sitting on the stone bed, was startled by her. At this moment, he was sitting on the stone bed, not daring to move at all, for fear of triggering something dangerous, and didn't even dare to speak, so he could only look at the three people for help with his eyes.
It was just that what made the three somewhat puzzled was that Duan Xueyi didn't answer Gao Yuyao's words immediately but said to Fang Wuqian, "Fellow Daoist Fang, trouble you to pat the stone bed again just like before. Remember, don't use too much force and don't use too little, just do it the same as before."
"Fairy Duan, what is this for?" Fang Wuqian asked casually, but didn't hesitate too much, and immediately followed Duan Xueyi's instructions, raised his right hand, and did it exactly the same way once.
Song Qingming and Gao Yuyao on the side, who were also somewhat unclear, saw Duan Xueyi acting so strangely, and also leaned toward her position lightly.
After Song Qingming approached Duan Xueyi, he suddenly felt a clearly different spiritual energy fluctuation with the spiritual sense in his body. This spiritual energy had far exceeded the spiritual energy concentration of this cave dwelling, and the feeling it gave people was completely unlike the spiritual energy emitted by the spirit vein in this cave dwelling.
After Song Qingming entered the water pool, he had long since felt that the deeper they went to the bottom of the water, the higher the concentration of spiritual energy around them. After they broke the magic array outside and entered this cave dwelling, the spiritual energy inside had already approached a second-tier high-grade spirit vein.
Originally, Song Qingming thought that this Core Formation senior built the cave dwelling here because of this second-tier water vein at the bottom of the pool. He didn't expect that after approaching Duan Xueyi just now, the spiritual energy he felt was several times denser than before. It seemed that this senior's cave dwelling was not as simple as they had seen before.
"Fellow Daoist Fang, you come over first. The spiritual energy at this stone bed position is somewhat wrong. It is possible that something is hidden inside." This time, before Song Qingming could speak, Duan Xueyi had already directly stated the situation she discovered and walked slowly toward that stone bed that looked very ordinary.
Seeing that she discovered the clue of the stone bed so quickly, Song Qingming was also somewhat surprised. Duan Xueyi had already discovered the wrongness a step earlier than him when those demon crocodiles attacked them yesterday, and now she could probe that there was a secret hidden in the stone bed so quickly. It could be seen that her spiritual sense was not inferior to Song Qingming's, and it was even possible that it was even better.
Hearing Duan Xueyi say this, Fang Wuqian finally felt relieved, hurriedly stood up with a smile, and gave up his position to Duan Xueyi.
Duan Xueyi arrived at the side of the stone bed, first turned around it, and then looked carefully at the positions on both sides near the stone wall.
"How is it? Is there anything else hidden below." Seeing that Duan Xueyi seemed to have found some clues, Fang Wuqian, who was standing on the side, asked somewhat anxiously again.
Duan Xueyi stood up, shook her head with a smile, and said, "Hard to say. I am also not sure if there is anything else hidden below. Fellow Daoist Fang, you and Fellow Daoist Song will still have to work hard to help move the stone bed away and see, then we will know!"
This stone bed was very large and was cut directly from a natural giant stone, weighing two or three thousand catties. If it were according to Fang Wuqian's temper, he would definitely want to split it directly with a sword, saving time and effort. But now he also knew that there might be some good treasure hidden below, so he naturally didn't dare to use this method.
Like this giant stone weighing several thousand catties, even ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators could not move it so easily. Fortunately, now that there were many people, it was not a difficult thing to move it away by casting spells together.
After a while, under the strenuous cooperation of Song Qingming and Fang Wuqian, the two finally pushed the stone bed that was blocking the way to the side. Only then did they see clearly the things hidden below. It turned out to be a small water pit less than three chi in radius.
There was also a spring eye in this water pit that was constantly bubbling, but it seemed to have been forbidden by someone casting a spell. Inside, although water was constantly bubbling, not a drop of water could flow out.
After seeing the spring eye under this stone bed, everyone showed expressions of doubt one after another. Only Duan Xueyi, who discovered the anomaly first, said with surprise, "This seems to be a Spirit Machine Spring Eye."
"Spirit Machine Spring Eye? Fairy Duan, please tell us what exactly this Spirit Machine Spring Eye is first." Hearing that Duan Xueyi seemed to recognize this item, Fang Wuqian hurriedly asked with an anxious face.
