You read that right.
Xiang Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly and knocked on the stone bricks in order. He found that most of the restriction patterns that appeared were different, and only a few were the same.
There are dozens of stone bricks on an entire wall, and there are four walls here, so the number is too large.
Xiang Sheng couldn't find a pen or paper to write it down, so he could only knock on the stone bricks again and again, forcing himself to remember the general direction of the forbidden pattern.
She didn't understand the restrictions, but she could grasp the patterns. This way of finding the treasure was better than blindly rushing around like a headless fly.
I don’t know how much time has passed.
Xiang Sheng squatted on the ground, drawing, her eyes were bloodshot, and her pale face could not hide her fatigue, but the light in her eyes was getting brighter and brighter.
The clues hidden in the forbidden patterns are actually very simple. When put together, they point to clear directions of stone bricks.
However, with her memory, it was difficult for her to remember so many sequences, so she could only simulate them repeatedly in her mind to consolidate her memory.
Finally, at a certain moment, she suddenly stood up, walked to a stone brick on a wall, and pressed it without hesitation.
With a click, the stone brick sank into the groove and stopped moving.
Xiang Sheng kept pressing, and brick after brick on the wall caved in. Finally, when she pressed the last brick, a muffled sound came from the opposite wall.
When Xiang Sheng turned around, he saw a stone door emerging from the stone wall.
“Success!”
Xiang Sheng was overjoyed and walked through the stone door in two steps, but he did not go out. Instead, he came to another stone chamber.
The light in this stone chamber was quite dim, but it did not prevent Xiang Sheng from seeing the golden corpse sitting cross-legged on the ground at first sight when he entered.
He paused for a moment, then walked to the corpse and examined it carefully.
It was the first time she had seen a golden skeleton. Although she didn't know what level of realm was needed to create such a corpse, the cultivation level of this senior was probably beyond her imagination.
On the ground in front of the corpse lay the second letter and the jade box. Xiang Sheng picked up the envelope and opened it.
"Young man, the fact that you were able to find this secret room shows your extraordinary wit. You can entrust me with my treasure.
However, the path of cultivation emphasizes cause and effect. If you accept this treasure, you will be accepting a share of my cause and effect.
The weight and depth of this cause and effect are beyond the reach of ordinary people. If you possess a fearless heart committed to the Dao, I will not stop you. If not, I'm afraid this treasure will not be an opportunity for you, but a source of disaster.
That’s all I have to say. Take care of yourself.”
After reading the suicide note, Xiang Sheng felt a little heavy in his heart, but soon felt relieved.
Cause and effect, disasters, are all too far away for her.
All she wanted now was to get out of the mountain safely, nothing else.
After putting down the letter, Xiang Sheng did not rush to open the jade box. Although this person's test method was a bit excessive, he had given her a treasure after all, and she had to let him rest in peace.
But just as she touched the golden corpse, it suddenly turned into golden powder and dissipated, and another letter emerged from the golden powder.
Xiang Sheng quickly picked it up and opened it, and instantly got goose bumps all over his body.
"There is a treasure in the jade box, a blood ring. Although it is precious, it is not the treasure I entrusted to you. If you leave now, it will not be a loss.
But if you harbor greed and attempt to take away this remains from me, you will be captured by the malicious thoughts in the remains in an instant and be devoured to death by them.
Since you can see this letter, it is probably because you are thinking of burying me. Nian Chong is loyal to his master. Now that he knows that his master is dead, he will follow him and will not hurt you.
The treasure I left for you is between the stone bricks under the remains. You can take it away.
The contents of this item are no joke. Never show it to anyone. Remember! Otherwise, disaster will befall you, and your soul will be shattered, forever condemned to extinction!
—A final masterpiece.”
"Qingtian Juebi, is this person called Qingtian?"
He gently put the letter aside, looked at Sheng Zhengzhong for a moment, and sighed softly.
She picked up the jade box, opened it, put the blood ring mentioned in the letter on her ring finger, and then gathered the golden bone powder scattered on the ground and put it into the jade box.
After doing all this, Xiang Sheng pried out the brick that Qingtian mentioned and smashed it hard on the ground.
With a bang, the stone brick cracked in two, and a palm-sized triangular stone plate rolled out from it.
Xiang Sheng picked it up, wiped it clean, and looked at it carefully.
Is this the treasure that this person has been emphasizing?
After watching for a moment, Xiang Sheng bit his fingertip and a drop of blood fell on the triangular stone plate, but was not absorbed.
The letter didn't mention the treasure's purpose, only asking her to hide it. Blood recognition proved useless, and Xiang Sheng couldn't think of any other solution, so she could only wipe off the blood and put it away.
But I didn't expect that the blood that was not absorbed by the stone plate would cause a reaction when it brushed against the ring on my ring finger.
Xiang Sheng only felt his fingers getting warm, and the blood ring disappeared. At the same time, his mind established a connection with it.
Is this... recognizing the master?
Xiang Sheng was surprised, and with a thought, the blood-red ring reappeared on his ring finger. It turned out that what happened just now had stimulated the ring to recognize its master, causing it to hide in the cortex.
Concentrating his mind on the ring, Xiang Sheng sensed the huge space contained in the blood ring, which was comparable to the two stone chambers.
"It turns out that the Blood Ring is a type of storage ring..."
Xiang Sheng suddenly realized that she had seen something similar in Xiang Wenli's hand before, but it looked gray and did not seem to have the ability to automatically hide in flesh and blood.
Senior Qingtian has a very important background. Since the blood ring is so precious, it probably has other uses, but she just couldn't discover them at the moment.
However, the "auto-hiding" feature alone is enough to benefit her greatly.
