These fourth-level awakeners were all affected by this battle.
Qiao Yuan and the other man quickly explored the underground world and finally arrived at their destination. After confirming that the two parties who had fought before were no longer there, they approached.
There is actually a palace in the underground world!
However, perhaps because of the battle just now, the palace in front of him looked particularly dilapidated and gloomy.
There are rubble everywhere, as well as incomplete walls and bronze objects covered with rust, filled with the desolation of time.
When I arrived at the door, the bronze door, which was about three inches thick, had become dilapidated.
Boom!
With a gentle push, the bronze door collapsed!
After the smoke and dust cleared, Qiao Yuan looked inside.
The darkness inside could not block Qiao Yuan's sight. Everywhere he looked was desolation and deathly silence.
But... Qiao Yuan saw the well in the middle at a glance.
Familiar spiritual well!
"It's the Lingjing!" said the person behind him who knew the situation with a little surprise.
…
Unlike the stone well in his own secret realm, this well was made entirely of bronze objects and looked quite ancient.
This spiritual well was found just like that?
Why do I feel no sense of accomplishment deep down?
Qiao Yuan stepped through the door and took the first step!
I felt the temperature drop suddenly, and a biting coldness rose from the soles of my feet.
At this temperature, any awakener below level 4 will surely die!
"There is no spiritual energy here...!" The voice of someone in the know suddenly sounded.
"What?" Qiao Yuan frowned.
"There is no spiritual energy here, not at all!" The person in the know looked moved and incredulous, and then seemed to have thought of something and said it quickly.
"The concentration of spiritual energy in the secret realm varies. Even if there is an abnormality somewhere, causing the concentration of spiritual energy to be lower than that in the outside world, it is not impossible!"
"But if a place without spiritual energy appeared in the secret realm, and it was near the source of the spiritual well, it could only prove one thing!"
"This secret realm is heading towards death!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qiao Yuan raised his eyebrows. He remembered the secret place where the King of Hell's spirit was before.
Secret realm of death!
The tomb of the awakened!
For every second the awakened person stays there, their strength will be weakened by one point.
And this place... is actually a secret place of death.
Qiao Yuan quickly came to the spiritual well and looked down. Sure enough... there was no spiritual liquid inside!
This spiritual well has dried up!
…
The person behind him who knew the situation came over with gritted teeth, looked at the spirit well repeatedly, and finally said: "I think I know what's going on!"
"Someone must have used some means to cause the secret realm to undergo a mutation, resulting in a massive explosion of spiritual energy. This is why the spiritual energy concentration outside this small secret realm is so high!"
"In this way, the problem of the spiritual fruit can be explained. At the cost of the complete withering of the spiritual well, this secret realm can be made into a disposable secret realm."
Qiao Yuan thought about it and felt that it made sense, but there were still many doubts.
People in the know don’t know that the origin of spiritual fruits is related to seeds. Even if there is an explosion of spiritual energy, causing the concentration of spiritual energy to increase in a short period of time, why is the way spiritual fruits appear different from the normal way spiritual fruits are born?
Here we need awakened people to become seeds!
unless……
An insider went on to say: "After much thought, I can only think of one way to do it."
Having said that, the two looked at each other and said it in unison.
"Strange things!"
It is impossible for an awakened person to influence a secret realm solely by his own power. At least the two of them have never heard of it.
But if there is the influence of something strange, then it will be much more normal!
…
Soon the two discovered another situation.
Not far from this dried-up spiritual well, a corpse was found next to a broken bronze pillar.
He was wearing a yellow Taoist robe, his face was dark blue as if he was poisoned, and he looked like an awakened person who looked like a Taoist priest.
What is his relationship with the murderer who caused the spiritual well to wither?
Scan with mental power.
In his clothes pocket, Qiao Yuan found a very interesting thing, a box related to his scabbard.
It is also a material that can block strange things.
He reached out and took out a small square iron box. Just as Qiao Yuan was about to open it, he was stopped by someone who knew the situation.
“Don’t use violence!”
"show me!"
After taking the iron box, the person in the know looked at it again and again, and finally breathed a sigh of relief as if he had confirmed something.
"This is a special secret box made by the Security Bureau. It looks like an ordinary iron box on the surface, but if someone forcefully opens it, it will explode!"
"It's not very powerful, but it's enough to destroy whatever's inside!"
"This kind of box is usually carried by awakened ones on secret missions. It seems... this Taoist awakened one was carrying out a secret mission and accidentally died here. There must be important information in the box!"
Qiao Yuan: "Can you open it?"
In the dim palace, the person in the know pushed his eyes open and smiled.
"Except for the city head of the Security Bureau, very few people know about this kind of thing, and I just happen to know how to open it!"
"But if this opening method gets out, I'll go in for tea!"
Qiao Yuan nodded, then tactfully turned his back to the person in the know.
The person in the know moved away from Qiao Yuan and went to a corner to start the operation.
…
Qiao Yuan: "..."
Is it necessary to be so defensive about yourself?
What about the basic principle of trust between people?
