Chapter 323

They followed Yuan Jing to a certain place. Yuan Jing pointed to a place and asked Major Zhu and others to take turns attacking. This was the weakest point of the formation that he could see with his divine eye.

Major Zhu and Qian Feng attacked without hesitation. Even at the weakest and most easily breached spot, they still expended considerable effort. Finally, they seemed to hear a "crack", as if an eggshell was broken. Yuan Jing shouted "Go", and Major Zhu took the lead and rushed in.

After entering, they still followed Yan Yuanjing's opinion and did not walk around randomly. There was a formation outside, and there might be many traps inside.

Yuan Jing unceremoniously led them to plunder all the things in the building. He found a letter from the owner of this place in a room. This was left by a cultivator named Xuanyuan who failed to break through and went into seclusion before his death. He left all his life's accumulations for the right person.

They found a bookshelf in this room, with many books and jade slips on it. Yuan Jing and Jian Hui knew what jade slips were at a glance, but Professor Xu and Major Zhu didn't know. However, the texture of the jade slips was enough for them to pay attention to them. Moreover, one of the most important jade slips was placed in a jade box.

Professor Xu and Major Zhu were ecstatic. Just taking these books back should be enough for them to unlock the secrets here. Although this place was full of dangers, it was worth taking the risk. It was a pity that some of the jade boxes seemed to contain things like medicinal herbs, but after the jade boxes were opened, the medicinal herbs inside turned into powder, which showed that they had been left here for too long.

"Comrade Yan, can you see anything unusual about this small bag?" Major Zhu brought a small purse-like bag that he had found and presented it to Yuan Jing to ask.

Yuan Jing knew it was a storage bag at first glance. He took the bag and said, "There is a glow on this bag. I think it is not an ordinary thing. Let me give it a try."

Yuan Jing seemed to have triggered some mechanism, and a bunch of objects suddenly appeared in front of them, which alarmed Professor Xu who was concentrating on the books and made him come over to take a look.

Professor Xu suddenly thought of something and was overjoyed: "Could it be that this is some kind of hidden magic, that there is another space in this bag where I can store items?"

Yuan Jing casually threw the bag to Professor Xu. Anyway, this time, Professor Xu would definitely dive into the laboratory and would not come out for a long time. He, Jian Hui and Major Zhu checked the items that were poured out. There were pills, but they were useless pills. The medicinal materials were the same as those outside. There were a few weapons that could still be used. Yuan Jing pretended to wave a sword casually, and ended up cutting a corner of the table like cutting tofu.

Major Zhu felt like he was almost numb with surprise. Was this the legendary magical weapon?

Yuan Jing and Jian Hui had to pretend to be surprised, but they were relieved in their hearts. They finally found something useful. With these things, China will not lag too far behind other countries. Currently, China's comprehensive strength lags far behind that of foreign countries. They only hope to overtake in the cultivation of civilization.

Half a day later, they took away as much as they could from the building. Each person had a big bag, and each person held a weapon they had found to avoid danger on the way back. This was the most handy and sharpest weapon they could find at the moment.

Although they haven't walked through the whole place yet, they all feel that it is important to take the things found here out for thorough research. They can also send more people in to continue exploring to avoid an uncontrollable situation. It would be a waste of time if they lose their lives here.

The return journey was much faster. Yuan Jing also used his soul power several times to suppress the monsters they encountered on the way, preventing them from getting close. As a result, the journey was safe and sound. It took them three days to reach the entrance. After resting and replenishing their energy, Yuan Jing led them back to the outside by the same route.

When Professor Xu came out, he suddenly had an idea: "Xiao Yan, do you think that place just now is in another space? Just like that purse, there is a storage space inside."

Yuan Jing silently gave Professor Xu a thumbs up in his heart: "I think what Professor Xu said makes sense. This layer of green light outside may be a kind of spatial energy?"

Professor Xu felt full of energy. He thought he could work for another hundred years without feeling tired. He was only in his fifties this year, so it was not impossible for him to live another hundred years. With the emergence of spiritual energy and cultivation, it would not be a problem for him to extend his life.

While saying this, no one in the group let their guard down. In fact, because of their trip inside, they had a deeper understanding of the dangers outside, which were definitely not something that the current power of the earth could contend with. Now, after walking this path twice, they would not be able to remember the route clearly if they were asked to walk on their own again. Just one step wrong could make a world of difference.

"The people outside must be very worried when they see us missing," said Major Zhu.

Indeed, this news even reached Boss Bai's ears. Boss Bai was so anxious these days that his mouth was covered with blisters. He came here in person to look for the whereabouts of his nephew and Professor Xu. If his nephew could never be found again, how would he explain to his second brother and father?

"Don't worry. According to the people who stayed outside, your nephew Yan Yuanjing is very confident. Apparently he may know where to go."

Boss Bai thought to himself how could he not be anxious, but he also couldn't bring too much pressure to others, so he had to patiently search for clues everywhere. However, at the last place where Yuan Jing and his group disappeared, no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find any clues. He was finally persuaded to go back to the tent to rest, because Boss Bai's eyes were full of bloodshot.

Boss Bai was reading a document and couldn't fall asleep when he suddenly heard a commotion outside. Someone shouted, "They're back!"

Boss Bai ran out quickly, his speed comparable to that of a young man, and grabbed a man and asked, "Where is the person?"

"Look, Commander, it's right there!"

Boss Bai looked carefully and saw that indeed, a dozen soldiers escorting a group of people in a dishevelled state appeared in his sight. These people were holding things in their arms, carrying packages on their backs, and had things hanging around their necks and arms, using themselves as walking luggage racks.

Boss Bai almost cried with joy. He ran over and glared at his nephew. He was too rash and impulsive. Didn't he know that his family would be worried? Major Zhu started to report in a serious manner. He didn't even have time to sit down and take a breath or drink a sip of water. He was eager to report everything he saw to his superiors because everything he saw was too shocking.

Boss Bai asked his men to arrange a tent for Professor Xu and his companions to rest and eat something. It was obvious that they were very tired and needed to wash up, so Professor Xu took Yuan Jing and his companions and left with their luggage. Some soldiers wanted to help Professor Xu with his packages, but Professor Xu refused. In his opinion, these were all treasures, and who knew that these guys would accidentally touch them? He would be heartbroken even if a small corner was broken.

When they arrived at the tent, Yuan Jing and Jian Hui left all the things they brought out with Professor Xu. They just washed, ate and rested, because in there everyone took turns closing their eyes and their nerves were highly tense. If they were not in a place with rich spiritual energy and the wild fruits they ate were also full of spiritual energy, they might not have been able to hold on.

When they woke up, they saw that there were a lot more people in the camp. There were also a lot more protective forces outside their tent. Yuan Jing and Jian Hui looked at each other. Needless to say, it must be Major Zhu and his men who reported the special features of Yuan Jing's eyes, so they had to be protected.

After they got up, washed their faces and brushed their teeth, someone brought them food. Just as they sat down to eat, Boss Bai came in. He had relaxed and taken a short nap earlier, and when he heard that his nephew had woken up, he hurried over to check on him.

"Are you okay these days?" Boss Bai asked with concern.

Yuan Jing waved his arms and said, "Look at me, I'm strong and healthy. I'm fine. On the contrary, we have gained a lot this time. Has Dabai seen what we brought back?"

Boss Bai said with a threatening face: "Do you know that this is very reckless? Have you ever thought about what would happen if you can't come back? What would your father do?"

Yuan Jing knew that his family would indeed be worried. Looking at Boss Bai's condition, he knew that he had not rested well in the past few days. However, he was not afraid of Boss Bai's serious face at all. He even reached out and tugged at his sleeve and said, "Uncle, I actually have a feeling that there will be something very important there, and it can ensure that we will return safely. Really, we are not taking a blind risk, otherwise I would not let Professor Xu go with us."

"You." Few youngsters act like spoiled brats in front of Boss Bai. Boss Bai is helpless with this nephew, but then he glares at Jian Hui again, "Don't you know how to stop Jing Ge'er? Are you fooling around with him?"

Jian Hui touched his nose and listened to the lecture obediently: "Uncle, I was wrong. I will stop it next time."

"Well, that's not right. Who told you to call me uncle?" Boss Bai just nodded and became angry again. This kid is so slick that he actually dared to call him Uncle Bai. It is obvious that he is not an honest person.

Jian Hui quickly shut up and stopped provoking him.

Boss Bai still had a lot of opinions about him, but he couldn't say much in front of his nephew. Finally, he sighed and patted Yuan Jing on the head: "You have made great contributions this time. The country will reward you. After preliminary sorting out the things you brought out this time, we have found that they are very important to our country. They can help humans practice. With these things, we Chinese will not lag behind other countries."

"Brother Jing," Boss Bai thought about it and added Jian Hui. Seeing that his nephew was devoted to this boy, he knew that it was impossible for him to find another man. He could only reluctantly include him as his own. "And Jian Hui, think about the reward this time. Do you want a material reward or..."

Yuan Jing said cleverly: "Can we join the training team? The country needs test personnel, and both of us want to sign up."

Boss Bai also had this idea, but he was a little worried: "Will it be dangerous?"

Yuan Jing shook his head and said, "In fact, I found a message from the owner of the house there. He called himself Xuan Yuan, a cultivator, and left his life's accumulation there. The skills he practiced were recorded in a jade slip. I know that jade slip, and uncle also knows that my eyes are special. Maybe I can read that jade slip. By the way, jade slips are a tool used by cultivators to record text and images. So I think there will be danger, but it should be within a controllable range. The world will be different in the future."

Boss Bai looked at his nephew with emotion. He was indeed the most insightful person. The world might be full of dangers in the future. Even the Bai family might not be able to protect him. It would be better for him to become stronger on his own.

He nodded and said, "Okay, I will submit your name and Jian Hui's name, but Dabai can only do his best to help you. However, Yuan Jing, your situation is special, and with the contributions of both of you, maybe this position can fall on you."

"Thank you, uncle." Yuan Jing thought so too. He and Jian Hui actually both had cultivation skills, but they needed an excuse. The skills they found in the secret realm just met their needs.

Jian Hui also followed in expressing his gratitude, and joined Yuan Jing in calling him "uncle", which made Boss Bai speechless. This brat was so shameless.

But if he also gets this quota, the bond between him and his nephew will become even closer, and he can't possibly push such a talent away.

After Yuan Jing and Jian Hui's names were reported, there were not too many surprises. Someone came to talk to them, mainly talking about the dangers and confidentiality issues. Both of them accepted it, so they and Major Zhu's soldiers were included in the first batch of test subjects. Moreover, Professor Xu really came to draw a tube of Yuan Jing's blood, which made him laugh and cry. Professor Xu was very concerned about his specialness.

Yuan Jing stayed in the camp because he was the only one who could lead people into that place now. By the way, they already knew from a book that the place was called Gan Yuan Secret Realm. When Yuan Jing led people in, he also told them about the dangers inside. They were lucky when they went in before and did not encounter too many wild beasts attacking them, otherwise their life and death would be unpredictable.

Jian Hui went back for a while to arrange things in the factory, and soon returned to the camp to figure out the skills in the jade slip with Yuan Jing. Others also knew that the jade slip was a recording tool, but no one could read the contents inside. Using other instruments would worry that the jade slip itself would be damaged and the contents inside would not be read, so this important task was handed over to Yuan Jing, and the leader also hoped that Yuan Jing's special eyes could play a role again.

As they wished, Yuan Jing read the contents of the jade slip, and then took the time to record the contents word for word on paper. Professor Xu and others studied it as if it were a treasure. After that, Yuan Jing entered into a state of meditation for the first time, and the aura detector also detected the changes in the aura around him. As expected, humans can use aura to practice and strengthen themselves.

These people gathered in front of the tent and dared not make a sound, fearing to disturb Yuan Jing inside. There was a saying about going astray, and they now regarded Yuan Jing as a treasure. Yuan Jing stayed there for a whole day and night before coming out to tell everyone that he had drawn Qi into his body.

Afterwards, with Yuan Jing's guidance, Jian Hui, Major Zhu and a few others were able to draw the Qi into their bodies smoothly and embarked on the path of cultivation. However, some people took a long time to feel the spiritual energy outside, which obviously meant that their aptitude for cultivation was relatively poor.

Major Zhu and his group entered the secret realm. Because the spiritual energy in the secret realm is much richer than outside, one day of cultivation inside is equivalent to one month outside, and someone is needed to continue exploring the secret realm.
