Crossing the Cultivation Realm: Two Souls Coexist

The two men searched all around the cave but found nothing special.

The front ends of the two holes were shaped like two stone platforms, extending straight inside. Looking through the holes, it was pitch black outside.

Gu Yang threw the night pearl in his hand out of the hole, and in less than two seconds, he heard a crisp "crack" sound.

"There should be some height outside the hole. This stone platform gives me a familiar feeling, but I can't remember where I've seen it before."

Hu Qing extended his mental power to observe outside the hole, but still found nothing.

Gu Yang inserted the Moon-Covering Blade into the large hole and slashed at the surrounding walls with force, sending out bursts of sparks.

"Ah Qing, we can't cut this side either. There must be something reinforcing it."

The two were at a loss as the passage was extremely mysterious and required fragments to unlock it, but there was nothing inside.

Gu Yang retracted the Moon-Covering Sword and became even more angry. There was nothing in this broken place and it was a waste of effort. Thinking of this, he punched the wall on the left side of the hole.

"Boom"

The dull sound echoed in the cave. Hu Qing, who was still observing, also raised his head and listened to that place.

"Wait, Brother Gu, hit it again, use the Moon Covering Sword to hit it."

"Boom! Boom!"

The dull sound knocked on Hu Qing's brain one after another.

"No need. There's nothing behind here. Let's look in this wall. There should be a secret door."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yang put down the Moon-Covering Sword in his hand and began to observe the wall.

The ground was damp, the walls had turned slightly black, and some of the walls were starting to bulge. The knocking just now had loosened many parts.

Wait, there is an area where the peeling is too obvious. Other places are bulging outwards, but this area is sunken inwards.

"Ah Qing, there's a problem here. The secret door should be there, but it's too high. I can only rely on you."

Hu Qing looked in the direction of Gu Yang's finger. The hole was indeed obvious, but it was on the head, so neither of them noticed it just now.

Hu Qing walked up along the wall, pressing the wall with his soul power, and the surrounding soil powder continued to fall down.

"Boom...boom!"

The entire wall began to shake violently, shaking down Hu Qing who was hanging on it.

Fortunately, Hu Qing reacted quickly and jumped down directly, but it seems that his soul will not be killed by the fall.

Under the shocked gazes of the two men, the wall actually sank directly, scraping off all the moss and dirt on it, leaving them on the ground, and sinking itself into the soil.

The wall disappeared, revealing a huge cave behind it. Gu Yang lit a kerosene lamp and walked inside.

Hu Qing spread out his mental power and continued to extend it inside. This large cave was connected with the previous cave, forming a huge rectangular block.

Holes of varying sizes appeared on the wall. Hu Qing counted them carefully and found there were seven in total, which made a total of nine including the previous ones.

The familiar number of holes plus the stone platform made Hu Qing's mind light up and he suddenly figured it out.

"Brother Gu, do you still remember the interior of the ruins when you woke up?"

"Remember, what happened?"

Gu Yang was still studying the two statues standing inside. After hearing Hu Qing's words, he was a little confused. Is there any connection between this place and the ruins?

"This should be the back of the ruins. These holes are where treasures are stored. There should have been pure white crystals blocking it, but someone used spiritual power to erode it, and the crystals disappeared, leaving behind holes."

Hu Qing analyzed what he was thinking slowly, and Gu Yang also stopped what he was doing and ran to the hole to observe.

"You mean, these stone platforms were full of treasures, and then someone took them away?"

Hu Qing watched Gu Yang put his hands into the holes and take them out one by one, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

"Don't dig. There are no treasures left. When I went there, there were only the last three. I took one. The others must have been taken by the group of people in the melee."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yang stretched his hand out of the hole and began to look through the storage ring.

"Where is it, where is it, Ah Qing? What does the treasure look like? Take it out and let me see it."

Hu Qing put his hands on his head, looking speechless. This kid is good in every way except that he is too curious.

"Don't turn it over. It's a herb. I don't know its name. It seems the emperor really liked it. I ate it in the end. I think it's useless."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yang stopped what he was doing and looked at Hu Qing with a sad face.

"It's a lot of money. If we don't need it, we can keep it and sell it for money. But if you want to eat it, just eat it. After all, you are the one who decides!"

Well, this kid is not only curious, but also greedy for money.

Hu Qing walked to the two statues. They were different from the statues he had seen in the ruins before. They were not as hideous.

One of them held a broadsword, and the other held a trident. When they struck each other lightly, a crisp metal collision sound could be heard.

Gu Yang also walked over, touched the big knife, and occasionally chopped it with the Moon-Covering Knife, leaving only white marks without any gaps.

"Ah Qing, these two weapons seem to be real. The quality of these weapons seems to be very good."

"This should be a war puppet, but we don't know its rank. We don't have the tools to detect it."

Hu Qing looked at these war puppets. They should be the same ones sold at the previous auction, but their deterrent power was far less than that one.

Gu Yang touched their backs with some envy, marveling at the magic.

"Are these two war puppets? How do I activate them? They're also great treasures."

Hu Qing placed Gu Yang's hand on the forehead of the big knife war puppet, cut the wound with the moon-covering knife, and blood dripped on it.

"Hiss! It hurts."

Gu Yang quickly retracted his hand and put it in his mouth to suck. The war puppet flashed with light and turned into a little man and fell to the ground.

Gu Yang picked it up and observed it. It was just a smaller version of the war puppet. It also had a connection with himself. It seemed that he could control it.

He squeezed out some more blood and dripped it on the forehead of another war puppet. A flash of light appeared, and another war puppet was in his hand.

"Ah Qing, how do we control these war puppets? Both of them should be in the early stage of Jindan."

Hu Qing looked at the two small war puppets. As expected, they could only reach the early stage of Jindan, far inferior to the one at the previous auction.

"It needs to be activated with spirit stones. The feedback I give you is that you are at the early stage of Core Formation, but the quality of the spirit stones is good enough, so you might be able to break through a little bit."

After hearing this, Gu Yang's face showed bitterness. It seemed that there were only a few spirit stones in the storage rings of the two of them, and most of them were coins.

Hu Qing looked at Gu Yang's expression and knew what he was thinking. He said unhappily:

"When we get to a new city, I'll earn more for you. It's easy to make money in this world."

Gu Yang nodded. It was true. He knew Hu Qing's ability to make money.

The two looked at the empty cave and began to look for the secret door.
