Gu Xi went to the keyhole again. When she looked closely, she realized that the dark red dots had disappeared and been replaced by a rune arrangement that matched the blueprint.
She had absolutely no idea how to use the key, so she could only keep turning it.
Unfortunately, no matter how she spun around, nothing in this space reacted.
Chains, runes, light—everything stopped, as if it were a giant gate with a broken lock.
With no hints, no clues, Gu Xi, somewhat frustrated, pounded on the massive door. She couldn't help but complain, "What the hell! Is this door really broken? How can it not be opened!"
She felt like she was going crazy; how could this have happened?
Hehe~
Suddenly, a creaking sound broke the silence, offering Gu Xi a little comfort in her agitated heart.
Gu Xi used the light from the shark pearl to look at the approaching bird.
The bird that came was none other than the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS. At this moment, it was flapping its large wings and flying towards her.
Why are you here?
The Ice Crystal Bird BOSS cawed twice more, then tapped the keyhole with its beak. Then it cawed at Gu Xi again.
"I tried, but it won't open."
Although Gu Xi appeared calm on the surface, she was unwilling to admit defeat.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS anxiously flapping its large wings against the giant door, and then pecking fiercely at the keyhole.
Although Gu Xi admitted that it tried very hard to express itself, she still couldn't understand it.
This communication barrier really stumped the bird. The Ice Crystal Bird BOSS cawed twice more, this time much louder. To Gu Xi, it sounded like the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS was scolding her for being useless.
Gu Xi sighed helplessly and shrugged. She was met with a disdainful look from the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS.
Gu Xi completely ignored the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS's gaze. Looking at the keyhole, she asked it, "Do you have a way?"
quack
The Ice Crystal Bird BOSS shook its head and hurriedly used its wings to pull Gu Xi closer. Then it gently touched her forehead, radiating its spiritual power.
A cool sensation ran through Gu Xi's body, and she felt her mental energy, which had been greatly depleted, being repaired.
She stared wide-eyed at the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS, trying to push it away. She needed to get inside quickly, not stay here to recover her mental energy. Besides, she could use potions to recover her mental energy; she couldn't waste time here.
Feeling the cub struggling, the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS mother angrily slapped the cub with her wing.
Yes, that was a very loud blow. It completely stunned Gu Xi.
Even after the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS finished resupplying, Gu Xi still looked dazed.
Then the mother bird slapped her with its wing again. Gu Xi finally realized what was happening.
So, she got a lesson from a bird?!
She glared at the Ice Crystal Bird BOSS, her anger barely contained. What she saw was an even angrier mother bird, flapping her wings incessantly against the giant gate and pecking at the key with her beak.
For a moment, Gu Xi didn't know what to do with her hands and feet.
She stared at the angry bird, feeling her mouth go dry. She could already see the rage burning in its eyes. (This chapter is now complete. Please click to continue reading the next chapter!)
