Chapter 961: A Shocking Discovery

Five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone?

Damn!

Xu Que was startled instantly. Previously, Bai Cailing had mentioned that a three-pattern Spirit Dao Stone was condensed by a Golden Immortal stage expert.

Now a five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone actually appeared, two levels higher than a Golden Immortal. What kind of realm must this be?

"Whoosh!"

Immediately, Xu Que arrived with a flash step, looking at the place Er Gouzi had dug out, his eyes narrowing slightly.

A pile of skeletons was scattered on the ground, and underneath were several Spirit Dao Stones, as if experts had condensed them before they died here, only to be covered by the skeletons later, causing the Dao Rhyme to be buried and never discovered by anyone.

But this was ultimately difficult to escape Er Gouzi's nose; it smelled them out and dug them directly out of the pile of skeletons.

Among the several Spirit Dao Stones, there were two one-pattern and three two-pattern ones. The five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone was the only one, and its Dao Rhyme was very intense.

This made Xu Que somewhat puzzled. Logically speaking, a cultivator could only condense one Spirit Dao Stone in their lifetime. How could several appear here at the same time?

In this situation, either the other party had collected several Spirit Dao Stones on their body before they died, or several cultivators died at the same time, each condensing a Spirit Dao Stone before they died.

But no matter how you look at it, both situations were a bit unreasonable. If they had collected several Spirit Dao Stones on their body before they died, why not use them directly to extend their life?

If several cultivators condensed Spirit Dao Stones at the same time before they died, that would be even less scientific. With such a large gap in their realms, how could they die at the same time and agree to condense Spirit Dao Stones together?

"Kid, don't say this God Venerable is unkind. There are six Spirit Dao Stones here; this God Venerable will only take one, and the rest are all yours!" At this time, Er Gouzi said, reaching out to grab the five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone.

"Wait, don't move!" Xu Que shouted immediately, his face solemn.

"Huh?" Er Gouzi was so frightened that it retracted its hand, astonished: "What's wrong? Is there any danger?"

"Yes!" Xu Que nodded, his gaze fixed, a trace of cold sweat oozing from his forehead, and said in a deep voice: "Don't take it yet, there's danger!"

"Damn, this God Venerable knew it, there wouldn't be any free lunch in this world!" Er Gouzi immediately started cursing, retreating with an unlucky face.

Xu Que immediately reached out his hand and clenched his five fingers in the air.

Whoosh!

The six Spirit Dao Stones were instantly sucked into his hand. Nothing happened in the surroundings; it was peaceful.

Er Gouzi was dumbfounded on the spot. After being stunned for a good while, it roared: "Damn, kid, you lied to this God Venerable. Where is the danger? Where is the danger?"

"The danger is with me!" Xu Que said righteously: "This is a five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone. How many experts would be jealous if it were taken out? Whoever has it on them is in danger. Er Gouzi, I'm doing this for your own good. Don't treat my kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs. Do you think it's easy for me to do this?"

"Damn, damn it, this God Venerable isn't afraid of danger, give the Spirit Dao Stone back!" Er Gouzi rushed over directly, pestering him to get the Spirit Dao Stone back.

"Stop messing around!" Xu Que pushed it away directly.

"Stop messing around, you first take out this God Venerable's Spirit Dao Stone!" Er Gouzi said relentlessly.

"Fine, fine, fine, here you go!" Xu Que said, directly taking out a one-pattern Spirit Dao Stone and throwing it out.

"Awoo!"

Er Gouzi darted out immediately, rushing toward that Spirit Dao Stone.

Xu Que lifted the corners of his mouth and looked at Jiang Hongyan: "Little girl, do you have any Array Repair Stones? You can handle this part of the incomplete formation; I'll repair another location!"

"Okay!" Jiang Hongyan smiled faintly and nodded.

Subsequently, the two walked to the open space separately and began to repair the formation.

The formation patterns of the teleportation array on the ground were very large, but they were incomplete in many places and extremely complex. It was very difficult for ordinary people to complete them; otherwise, experts of the five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone level wouldn't have fallen here.

Even for Xu Que, he could only understand a small part of the incompleteness, the simpler parts, which is why he left them for Jiang Hongyan to use the Array Repair Stones to compensate for.

As for the most difficult part in the middle, it could only be left to the system.

"System, how many Acting Cool Points does it take to complete this part of the formation?" Xu Que summoned the system to ask.

"Ding! After detection, completing the formation requires consuming 50,000 Acting Cool Points. Do you want to proceed with the formation repair?"

"Yes!"

Swish!

A white light suddenly shot out from Xu Que's hand, shooting directly onto the ground, following those patterns and beginning to depict them.

"Awoo, awoo, awoo, kid, this God Venerable is back!" At this time, Er Gouzi returned, looking sneaky, clearly feeling guilty.

Xu Que raised his eyebrows instantly.

This is not right! It completely doesn't fit Er Gouzi's usual style.

He tricked it by taking a one-pattern Spirit Dao Stone, and it didn't care after coming back? This definitely has a problem!

"Huh, Er Gouzi, what secret thing did you hide?" Xu Feifei suddenly asked. The position she was standing in happened to allow her to see behind Er Gouzi.

Er Gouzi immediately looked stern and said loudly: "Didn't hide anything, this God Venerable just put away that Spirit Dao Stone."

"No, you were holding a piece of skin just now!" Xu Feifei looked suspicious.

"Skin? What skin, where did the skin come from? There isn't even pig skin. You must have seen it wrong. You young girl, you're so young, how could your eyes be blurry!" After Er Gouzi finished speaking, it even made an expression of sighing.

Xu Que immediately grabbed Er Gouzi, lifted it into the air, and sneered: "Er Gouzi, is your skin itchy? You've learned to swallow things alone, huh?"

"Damn, kid, aren't you also swallowing things alone? I discovered the five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone myself, why was it taken by you!" Er Gouzi was furious instantly.

"Fine, then I'll return the five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone to you, and you give me the thing you just discovered!" Xu Que said with a smile.

"No!" Er Gouzi shook its head hurriedly.

"No?"

"Right, don't want it anymore. This God Venerable has thought it through. You've been taking care of this God Venerable for so many years, so that five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone is a gift to you." Er Gouzi replied.

Xu Que widened his eyes instantly. Good guy, it seems this idiot got a treasure even more precious than the five-pattern Spirit Dao Stone!

"Forget it, forget it. Since you discovered it, I won't snatch it from you. But... can I just take a look?" Xu Que shook his head and asked.

"Of course you can!" Er Gouzi nodded immediately, reached out and touched, directly taking out a piece of stinky tofu, mysteriously saying: "Kid, look, there is stinky tofu in this place too, and it was discovered by this God Venerable. Don't you think it's magical?"

"Pat!"

Xu Que immediately hammered Er Gouzi on the forehead with one hand, "Magical your sister, are you treating me like a fool, taking out a piece of stinky tofu to fool who? Hurry up, take out that piece of skin you just had and let me see, maybe it will be helpful for us to get out!"

"Damn, then you're also treating this God Venerable like a fool, is there a possibility of taking it back after taking it out?" Er Gouzi stared.

"You seem to know a lot! Fine, then forget it, I'm not going out, I'll go chat with that Warden, don't wait for me tonight!"

After Xu Que finished speaking, he threw Er Gouzi aside and made a gesture to turn and leave.

"Damn!" Er Gouzi exclaimed immediately, shouting: "Don't, don't, don't, kid, let's talk things over. It's just a piece of skin, this God Venerable will let you see it!"

After speaking, it waved its dog claws and took out a piece of yellow skin from its belly, which was actually a blackened ancient human skin!

"Huh?"

Xu Que was stunned instantly. The human skin was actually covered with dense small characters, which seemed to be a Dharma technique, and also seemed to be a refining technique.

"This was discovered by this God Venerable beside that pile of skeletons. Kid, look if you want, don't think about swallowing it alone. This is a true divine object!" Er Gouzi said vigilantly, feeling uneasy, and handed the human skin over reluctantly.

"Don't worry, I won't. I'm not that kind of person!" Xu Que nodded immediately, his eyes full of sincerity, and took the human skin from Er Gouzi's hand.

However, upon seeing this, Xu Que's expression changed instantly, his heart filled with horror and shock.

A shocking discovery!

The things recorded in this human skin were actually related to the Spirit Dao Stone, simply extraordinary. If there were no accidents, this would be a new path toward the peak of life in the future!
