Chapter 360: Secret behind the stone wall
Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Sima You Yue waited until King Flame had left before saying to Bei Gong Tang and the others, saying, “You all head into the pond to cultivate.”
“Into the pond?” Fatty Qu was shocked, “Can’t we just stay by the side?”
“I don’t know why, but the spiritual qi bubbles from the pond. It will be faster if you go inside to cultivate.” Sima You Yue said.
“What about you?” Wei Zi Qi’s acute senses could sense the meaning behind Sima You Yue’s words and asked.
“I have something I need to check on with Halcyon.” Sima You Yue said, “Halcyon, make a barrier around them. Don’t let others enter.”
“Okay.”
Halcyon nodded and used his arts to set up a barrier, enveloping the entire cultivation pond.
“You Yue, what are you going to do?” Fatty Qu was helpless.
“This place, as well as the cultivation pond at the Snow Wolf’s territory is a bit strange. I’m going to find out what’s going on.” Sima You Yue said, “You all stay here and cultivate properly. I shouldn’t take too long.”
“Then, you take care.” Bei Gong Tang said.
“Relax. I’ll come back earlier if it gets dangerous.” Sima You Yue said.
She came to the deepest part of the entrance in front of the stone wall with Halcyon. She stretched forth a hand to touch it, and it actually was the same as the one in the Snow Wolf clan.
When they entered, they realised that this place was rather similar to the other side. They guessed that it must be something like a barrier. Who knew that they would hit the nail on the head.
Sima You Yue called out Little Roar and let him fuse with herself. After that, she kept Halcyon away into the Spirit Pagoda and walked past the barrier.
Bei Gong Tang and the others saw her disappear from inside the cave, and chose a spot in the pond and headed in.
“Such dense Spiritual Qi!’ Fatty Qu exclaimed.
“I can feel the fire elements surging into my body!” Sima You Le was extremely excited, and he stretched forth a hand to cup the water.
“Let’s cultivate quickly. If we cultivate here for a year, we may be able to rise a few ranks.” Ouyang Fei said.
“He he, who knows, we might rise to Spirit Saints.” Fatty Qu said.
Sima You Yue, Bei Gong Tang and the others were on the borders of Spirit Saint. They just had not managed to go past the pinnacle of Spirit Overlord. As a result, she wanted to make use of this chance to break through and reach Spirit Saint.
“Fatty, you have to work hard. If you lag too far behind us, we won’t wait for you.” Ouyang Fei said. He wanted to use this to encourage Fatty.
“Start cultivating once you’re ready.” Bei Gong Tang didn’t say anything else as she closed her eyes and began to cultivate.
Because the Spiritual Qi was too dense, it was slightly intolerable. She quickly activated her inner spiritual qi to guide the spiritual qi that had just entered, to get it to enter her spiritual pool obediently.
On this side, Sima You Yue realised that this barrier was similar to the stone. However, once she entered, she realised that it was a kind of space.
She called Halcyon out again and said, “Look here.”
“Cave in a cave?” Halcyon looked at the the unending cave and said, “Want to go down?”
“Of course I do.” Sima You Yue said, “Discovering something out of the ordinary without going deeper is not my style.”
After speaking, she leaned over and jumped down.
Halcyon saw her jump in without hesitation and smiled, jumping in after her.
Sima You Yue continued to descend, and realised that the temperature was getting hotter. At the end, she had no choice but to release some spiritual energy to envelope herself in order to continue heading down.
After going down a bit more, Sima You Yue had no choice but to stop because she realised that the heat was going to completely burn away her defensive barrier.
“We can’t go any deeper.” Halcyon said, “Even I can barely take the heat.”
Sima You Yue took a look downstairs and saw that they were quickly at the end. She said, “Go back first, I’ll use Crimson Flame’s fire to protect myself and go down for a look.”
“Okay.” Halcyon was not about to show off, and returned to the Spirit Pagoda.
Sima You Yue kept Little Roar away as well. She used Crimson Flame’s fire to surround herself, and she could clearly see the distortion in the air around her due to the intense heat.
She quickly reached the bottom, but once she looked closely, she realised that there was nowhere she could land.
“It’s actually magma. Is this magma from the core?”
She looked around her, but she had no place to land. There wasn’t any place special either, but she could sense something out of the ordinary from within the magma.
“Bloop-”
A bubble appeared from the bottom of the magma, and popped when it came above the magma, releasing a soft popping sound.
A feeling was released from that bubble, which actually felt ancient.
“It looks like I can’t see much here.” Sima You yue said, “It’s all magma and I have no way to continue. Since this is the case, I might as well head back.”
“Go down.” Crimson Flame’s voice suddenly transmitted
“Crimson Flame?” Sima You Yue never thought that Crimson Flame would awaken at this time, saying, “Crimson Flame, the magma is so hot. I can barely tolerate being here. If i go down, I’ll be burnt to a crisp.”
Crimson Flame pondered for a moment, then Sima You Yue saw that the flame surrounding her slowly turned into a red ball.
That red ball finally lowered her into the magma, and quickly destroyed it.
“Cultivate here.” Crimson Flame said.
After Sima You Yue entered the magma, she felt the extremely dense fire elements. The red ball seemed to help her absorb it, and she only needed to channel the flame attributes that were inside the ball into her body.
“The fire elements here are a lot more overbearing than usual!”
She could feel that the fire elements she was absorbing were extremely hot. So much so that it lightly burnt her as well. It was a good thing that Crimson Flame had refined her bones before, so these flames could not really hurt her. It just gave her slight pain.
However, even if this was the case, she could barely keep a straight face and almost exploded.
“Hurts…”
She gritted her teeth. Even she thought that this was painful. If it was Bei Gong Tang and the others, they would already have been burnt to a crisp.
However, the red ball did not care whether or not she was in pain or whether the flame elements were hard to bear. It continually absorbed the fire elements, forcing her to absorb those fire elements as well without rest, and the cycle kept going.
It was unknown how much time had passed, and Sima You Yue did not know whether she had gone numb from pain or if she had just gotten used to it but she no longer felt pain. She merely knew that a lot of fire elements had entered her body. If she continued at this rate, her body would definitely be burnt into trash by the new fire elements that entered. As a result, she cultivated non-stop.
Sensing that she had already grown accustomed, Crimson Flame came out from inside her, and a red ball also enveloped him.
“It’s rare to find this kind of amazing place. Looks like my wounds can be healed by an entire level.”
After speaking, he came neither too near or too far to Sima You Yue and sat cross legged. He started to cultivate just like a human.
