But not long after, the corpse fell down again, and the mist on its body gradually dissipated.
The old male's expression gradually froze.
The system gloated: "It can be seen that they haven't mastered corpse refining yet, they are only half-baked."
[They must be using that black crystal to control those orcs.]
Song Jinqiao looked at the system beside him and said, "What is that black crystal? It doesn't look like a contaminated crystal."
The system pondered for a moment, then shook its head and said, "I don't know either. Wait until I contact the Beast God to ask."
The old male did not give up and continued to study for a long time. Finally, when it was time for Song Jinqiao to gather, the old male left with an angry look on his face.
The system looked at his back and sneered: "This old dog!"
His partner was already urging him to go, and Song Jinqiao frowned as he looked at the corridor on the other side, but finally left slowly.
Back in the room where they were temporarily staying, Song Jinqiao briefly talked about what he had seen today, and then listened to everyone talk about what they had seen.
Hearing that they had also seen the test site, and in a different place, he immediately frowned.
"So the pagans have set up many testing grounds?"
The companions nodded and talked about the strangeness of the black crystal.
Yun Fu frowned when she thought of the smell she had smelled today and said, "Those polluting powers should have branched out from the power of the black crystal, because their powers are very similar."
Xuan Ji said, "They are using that tree and the power of the black crystal to research the art of resurrection, but from now on, there seems to be no progress."
Song Jinqiao asked about the general appearance of the test site, but found that only the test site he went to had two passages, while the others had only one identical passage.
"We'll look for it tomorrow."

"Huh? Where is this place? Am I not sleeping?"
Looking at the gray surroundings, Song Jinqiao frowned. Just as he was about to walk around, he saw a figure walking out of the fog.
"Cecilia?"
Song Jinqiao looked at him in surprise, then asked curiously, "Are you looking for me?"
But Cecilia shook her head and said, "No, there is a force that drew me here."
"Power?" Song Jinqiao looked down at himself and asked doubtfully, "Is it the power in me?"
Cecilia took a step forward, her golden eyes fixed on her. Suddenly, she frowned and said, "There's a very familiar aura about you."
That breath was really familiar to him, but he felt as if he had forgotten where he knew this breath.
It’s really her!
Song Jinqiao was surprised for a moment, then thought about it and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind: "The other side of the underground palace!"
"Huh?" Cecilia looked at her in confusion.
Song Jinqiao told him what happened today. Cecilia nodded slowly and agreed thoughtfully, "Maybe it really is because of that corridor."
"I need you to help me take a look at that place." He looked at her seriously.
Song Jinqiao paused, raised his eyebrows, crossed his arms, a sly smile flashed across his eyes, and he said with a grin, "Really? So Lord Beast God also needs my help!"
Cecilia was silent for a moment, her golden eyes shimmering with brilliance, as if lingering with a hint of indifference that could make one sink into it: "What do you want?"
"Please beg me!"
Song Jinqiao looked at him with a smile and said calmly, "If you beg me, I will help you."
"Please."
Song Jinqiao: "..."
Song Jinqiao seemed to have not expected him to be so straightforward, and just stood there in a daze.
Cecilia thought she hadn't heard what she had just said, so she repeated it slowly.
"I beg you to help me."
Song Jinqiao: "..."
Seeing that he wanted to say it again, Song Jinqiao simply waved his hand and said unhappily: "Alright, alright, no need to beg."
Really.
"Are all gods the same as you?" she suddenly asked curiously.
Exactly the same.
Cecilia glanced at her indifferently without saying anything. Song Jinqiao didn't care either. Suddenly, he remembered to ask him something.
"Do you know what Sombra is?"
"Know."
Then Cecilia fell silent.
Song Jinqiao tried to hold back, but finally couldn't hold it back any longer and asked, "What is black crystal?"
Cecilia stood with her hands behind her back, looked at her calmly, and asked, "Want to know?"
Song Jinqiao nodded in confusion. There was a mysterious feeling in his words that immediately attracted her, and then she heard Cecilia's words.
"Beg me."
Song Jinqiao: "..."
Cecilia looked at her seriously, her expression still indifferent and ruthless: "If you beg me, I will tell you."
Song Jinqiao: "..."
He pulled the corners of his lips, a hint of anger flashed across his eyes: "So God still holds grudges!"
"Taking advantage of someone's misfortune!" she complained.
Cecilia felt no shame about her behavior and was even kind enough to correct her: "The idiom 'taking advantage of someone's misfortune' doesn't apply here."
Song Jinqiao looked annoyed: "What do you care?"
Seeing that she was about to explode with anger, Cecilia then mentioned the black crystal.
"The black crystal belongs to the Empire of God, but it is a very evil thing, a dark force."
"After the death of the last king of the Empire of God, Sombra's true form disappeared. I don't know why Sombra appeared here."
Song Jinqiao nodded in understanding: "Okay, I understand. It seems I still need to help you find the source of the black crystal."
Cecilia looked into her eyes and said nothing, which was considered as her agreement with her words.
*
Song Jinqiao woke up early in the morning and became angry when he thought of Cecilia's attitude in his dream last night.
Is that the attitude of asking for help?
Forget it, since she sometimes helps her, she won’t say anything.
Before she parted with her partners, she told them what she had said to Cecilia the night before.
When talking about the corridor, I originally wanted to go with Song Jinqiao.
Song Jinqiao smiled and said, "Okay, with so many of us, it's not convenient to hide. I can go alone, and I'm not as weak as before."
Since that was the case, the friends didn't mention the matter again.
When he arrived at the underground palace again, Song Jinqiao went straight to the corridor on the right.
The corridor on the right was longer than the one on the left, and it was very dark, without any light. Because it was too dark to walk, Song Jinqiao took out the sea crystal lantern for lighting.
After taking it out, she looked at the passage and found that this passage was not only longer than the one next to it, but also smaller, so small that it was only as high as a male's side.
Moreover, this corridor does not have the bloody smell of the corridor next to it. It is an indescribable smell.
