Genius in the whole system: The useless young lady dominates the world
Chapter 290 Traces Appear in the Cave
After leaving Kunlun Ring, the surrounding scenery remained the same, with howling winds and a thick yin energy still permeating the air, mixed with the smell of decay and death.
The white tiger transformed into a handsome young man, closely following Lu Lingxi Yao. His thick eyebrows were furrowed, his eyes were wary, and his body faintly emitted a golden light, which was the Geng metal energy, extremely sharp and capable of cutting through any obstacle.
Youming then transformed back into its small pet form, affectionately perching on Lu Lingxi's shoulder, its little wings fluttering gently, and occasionally nuzzling Lu Lingxi's cheek with its head.
Nine-Tailed Fox remained in the form of a refined gentleman, holding a feather fan and gently waving it. He appeared relaxed, but in reality, he was always paying attention to the movements around him.
"Master, the yin energy here is so heavy," the white tiger said in a deep voice.
"Mm." Lu Lingxi nodded.
"Master, Youming is hungry..." Youming said pitifully, her voice soft and sweet, with a hint of coquetry.
Lu Lingxi smiled helplessly, took out a spiritual fruit from her Kunlun Ring, and handed it to Youming. Youming immediately cheered and started to eat the fruit, making a "crunch crunch" sound.
Nine-Tailed Fox gently waved its feather fan and smiled, "Master, let's find a place to rest first, and think about what to do next."
Lu Lingxi and Yao had the same idea, so they nodded in agreement. The four of them found a relatively dry cave and settled down temporarily.
Taking advantage of a break, Lu Lingxi Yao entered the Kunlun Ring again and came to the side of Zhuque, Huanyue, and Huanying. They were still unconscious, pale-faced, and weak.
Lu Lingxi carefully examined their injuries and found that although their condition was temporarily stable, it was still not optimistic. She frowned and knew she had to find a way to treat them as soon as possible.
Suddenly, she remembered that when she left Medicine King Valley, Medicine King had given her an ancient medical book, which might contain a treatment method.
So she took out her medical book and studied it carefully. Following the methods recorded in the book, she collected some special herbs from the Kunlun Ring and prepared them into a medicine.
When she fed the potion to Zhuque and the others, she saw a faint light emanating from their bodies, their breathing gradually stabilized, and some color returned to their faces. She breathed a sigh of relief and walked out of the Kunlun Ring.
Upon seeing Lu Lingxi emerge from the Kunlun Ring, the White Tiger hurriedly asked, "Master, how are they?"
Lu Lingxi said with relief, "She's fine now."
Everyone was relieved and prepared to continue their journey into the Everlasting Ravine.
"and many more……"
Just as everyone reached the cave entrance, Lu Lingxi Yao suddenly stopped. Her gaze fell on a corner not far from the entrance. That corner seemed different from the rest of the cave. While the rest of the cave was damp, that corner was unusually dry and even had a faint warmth emanating from it.
Lu Lingxi's heart stirred, and she quickly walked over. She squatted down and carefully observed the ground. On the ground covered with black rocks, there was a stone that was slightly different in color.
It has a light grayish-brown color, which is different from the other black rocks. Moreover, the shape of this stone is also quite special. Unlike the surrounding rocks, which have sharp edges, it has a rounded arc, as if it had been polished by hand.
Lu Lingxi Yao reached out and gently touched the stone. A warm sensation came from her fingertips, dispelling the surrounding chill.
“This is…” Lu Lingxi Yao was filled with doubt. She vaguely felt that this stone might be hiding some secret.
She carefully observed her surroundings and discovered that in addition to the dense yin energy, there seemed to be a faint but familiar aura mixed in with the air. This aura was very faint and weak, yet it gave her a strange sense of intimacy.
"Master, have you found anything?" Baihu couldn't help but ask when he saw Lu Lingxi's solemn expression.
Lu Lingxi did not answer. She slowly closed her eyes and gently poured her spiritual power into the stone. In an instant, she felt as if she had established a subtle connection with the stone. A faint spiritual energy fluctuation emanated from inside the stone, resonating with her spiritual power.
Although the fluctuation of spiritual energy was weak, it contained a rich wood-type spiritual energy and a warm and vast aura. Lu Lingxi was very familiar with this aura; it was the unique aura of the cultivation technique practiced by her grandfather, Lu Lingyuntian!
Lu Lingxi suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze filled with disbelief. She took a deep breath and poured her spiritual energy into the stone again. This time, she sensed the source of the spiritual energy fluctuation even more clearly—this stone was actually a hidden entrance!
“There’s an entrance here!” Lu Lingxi’s voice trembled slightly as she pointed to the stone and said to Baihu and the others, “This spiritual energy fluctuation originates from the same source as the cultivation technique my grandfather practiced. He must have been here before!”
Upon hearing this, Baihu, Jiuwei, and Youming all showed surprise. They quickly stepped forward and carefully examined the stone, but could not see any clues.
"Master, are you sure?" the white tiger asked, still somewhat incredulous.
“I’m sure,” Lu Lingxi said decisively, “My spiritual power resonated with this fluctuation, there’s absolutely no mistake!”
Nine-Tailed Fox gently shook its feather fan and pondered, "If this is indeed a clue left by Grandpa, and it is so well hidden, he must have encountered some danger!"
Lu Lingxi's heart tightened. Jiuwei's words made her even more worried about her grandfather's safety. She took a deep breath and said, "No matter what, we have to go in and check!"
She channeled her spiritual energy into the stone again, this time increasing the output. As the energy continued to flow, the grayish-brown stone began to tremble slightly, and a faint halo appeared on its surface.
Suddenly, the stone wall cracked open with a "crack," and a dense, yin energy emanated from the crack, completely different from the warm aura that had been there before.
Lu Lingxi felt a chill run down her spine. There must be unknown dangers beyond this gap, but she didn't hesitate at all. She took a deep breath and said to Baihu and the others, "Stay close to me and make sure you protect yourselves!"
After saying that, she took the lead and stepped into the crevice, followed closely by the White Tiger, the Nine-Tailed Fox, and the Netherworld.
Beyond the crevice lay a narrow and rugged passage, pitch black inside, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face. Lu Lingxi Yao channeled her spiritual power, condensing a ball of flame in her palm to illuminate the path ahead.
The passage was filled with a dense, cold, and damp aura that made people feel very uncomfortable. The white tiger radiated golden light, blocking the aura from entering, while the nine-tailed fox gently waved its feather fan to dispel the surrounding gloom. Youming clung tightly to Lu Lingxi Yao's shoulder, vigilantly observing the surroundings.
They walked along the passage for a long time, and the passage became narrower and narrower until it could only accommodate one person at a time. Lu Lingxi walked in front, carefully avoiding the gravel and potholes under her feet, taking each step very cautiously.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, a glimmer of light suddenly appeared ahead. Lu Lingxi was overjoyed and quickened her pace. The moment they stepped out of the passage, the scene before them stunned them.
