Chapter 928: Chapter 590: Primal Aura, Mysterious Ancient Tower (Part 2)

"Let’s assess the situation first. Anyone who’s unconcerned about mana consumption at this time isn’t an ordinary person."

In the deep mountains below, many Divine Soul Transmissions exchanged plans.

Yet even after Lu Qing’s and his companion’s figures disappeared, no one dared to intercept them.

Those who have survived in the secret realm till now are all shrewd.

The two in the sky dare to be so flagrant, they must have their reasons.

To act rashly without understanding anything is likely to backfire.

So without confidence, no one dared to act recklessly.

"Mr. Chen, did you sense it just now, as if there was someone below who wanted to strike us?"

Above the sky, the Daoist of Five Treasures asked.

"They probably think that since we’re willing to expend our mana to fly, we must be carrying quite a lot of Spirit Stones and Elixirs and intend to rob us," Lu Qing said calmly. "Since they haven’t actually attacked us, we can ignore them."

He indeed sensed the covetous intent from below.

But as long as those people remained inactive, he wouldn’t bother with them.

"Mr. Chen, are we first heading to find Miss Ye and her companions now?" The Daoist of Five Treasures asked.

"Let’s try first. This vast mountain range might make it difficult to find Miss Ye and her group."

Indeed, when Lu Qing previously inquired from some loose cultivators, he unexpectedly discovered that disciples from the Qiankun Sect were also in these mountains.

So he intended to first make contact with Ye Qingzhu and her team to see if he could gather any useful information from them.

"If we’re trying to locate Miss Ye and her companions, I might be able to divine a hexagram for that," said the Daoist of Five Treasures.

Lu Qing paused slightly: "Daoist, can you divine it?"

"Not a hundred percent sure, but given our connection with Miss Ye, and the fact we’re in the same secret realm, divining their location shouldn’t be too difficult," explained the Daoist of Five Treasures.

"The Daoist’s divination method is truly extraordinary," praised Lu Qing.

He knew from the Superpower’s intelligence notes that the Daoist’s divination prowess was remarkable.

However, it was indeed quite convenient.

No matter the situation, a hexagram could be divined, and with high accuracy, truly wondrous.

After his admiration, Lu Qing channeled his mana, condensing a cloud in the sky.

"Then I shall trouble the Daoist to divine once more."

"It’s no trouble at all."

The Daoist of Five Treasures sat cross-legged on the cloud, taking out his black turtle shell Magical Treasure.

After shaking it for a while, several Copper Coins were spewed out from the shell, and the Daoist of Five Treasures observed them seriously.

Then, his brow furrowed slightly.

"Daoist, what is it?" Lu Qing asked.

"The hexagram shows that Miss Ye and her company are deep within this mountain range, not too far from us, but..."

"But what?"

"However, the hexagram also indicates they seem to be in danger, facing some crisis. If not careful, at best they might be gravely injured, at worst, they might fall instantly," the Daoist of Five Treasures said solemnly.

Lu Qing was startled: "It’s that serious, could it be they ventured into exploring ancient ruins?"

Previously, from the mouths of those loose cultivator Golden Cores, Lu Qing learned that the ancient ruins in these deep mountains were fraught with dangers.

Even powerful Golden Core Realm individuals have perished within.

Even major forces faced casualties.

The hexagram indicating that Ye Qingzhu’s party was in peril made Lu Qing immediately think of this.

"The hexagram shows that the risks Ye and her team face are both natural and human-made, but the specific reasons will only be known once we see for ourselves."

Lu Qing was silent for a moment before saying, "Regardless, we should go and take a look first."

Immediately, the two set off again.

And due to this sudden information, their flying speed increased.

Finally, when the Daoist of Five Treasures’ mana was mostly depleted once again, they saw in the distance a towering ancient ruin.

It was a large ancient tower that looked somewhat broken, roughly twelve stories high.

However, the top of the tower was broken off, with the spire missing.

So the twelfth floor was only half a floor.

Even from a distance, when Lu Qing and his companion first laid eyes on the ancient tower, they were already assailed by an aura of primitiveness.

Though the ancient tower was only twelve stories high and didn’t seem very tall, only slightly higher than the surrounding mountains,

its presence seemed capable of making time stand still, giving off an aura of timelessness and eternal existence.

Lu Qing even felt that the Immortal Golden Bell high-grade Spirit Artifact they had seen at the auction earlier,

could not compare to the profoundness of the ancient tower ahead.

The ancient and primal aura of the ancient tower left Lu Qing and his companion in awe for quite some time before they regained their composure.

"No wonder those loose cultivator Golden Cores earlier said these major forces were keen on exploring secret realms," exclaimed the Daoist of Five Treasures. "This ancient tower is certainly extraordinary, likely left by a mighty figure.

It probably contains unimaginable opportunities inside.

Even I, upon encountering such an ancient relic, wouldn’t rest without exploring a little."

"Indeed, this ancient tower is truly impressive. Who knows how many years it has existed, yet it still strikes awe into the heart," Lu Qing agreed, "Daoist, we’re almost there, you should meditate for a moment."

With that, he condensed another cloud.

"Very well." The Daoist of Five Treasures nodded.

He then sat on the cloud, gripping a Spirit Stone to restore his energy.

Ahead of them, the ancient tower gathered many elite disciples from various forces.

Moreover, it was said that powerful Mutant Beasts guarded the tower’s outskirts, preventing unauthorized entry.

The Daoist of Five Treasures dared not approach without restoring his condition to its peak.

Seeing the Daoist of Five Treasures meditate, Lu Qing stood by to protect him.

He also withdrew a Middle Grade Spirit Stone and swallowed it whole.

Once the Spirit Stone entered his body, the Five Elements Gourd in his Dan Tian Qi Sea trembled slightly, and in the next moment, it absorbed the Spirit Stone into its core.

Soon, the vast spiritual charm within the Spirit Stone was quickly absorbed by the Five Elements Gourd, transforming into Lu Qing’s mana.

This was why Lu Qing didn’t need to meditate and rest like the Daoist of Five Treasures to rapidly recover his mana.

As his Lifebound Magical Treasure intimately connected with him,

the Five Elements Gourd could purify mana and help him absorb spiritual charm at any time to replenish mana.𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

Theoretically, as long as his spirit held up and he had enough Spirit Stones,

he could continuously operate the Five Elements Gourd, ensuring his mana always stayed at its peak.

After ingesting a Middle Grade Spirit Stone to recover his mana, Lu Qing continued to watch over the Daoist of Five Treasures, while his gaze remained fixed on the ancient tower afar.

This time, however, he activated his Superpower to inspect it.

Yet, whether or not his Superpower could uncover the ancient tower’s secrets, he was unsure.

The tower’s aura was too vast, far more mysterious than a high-grade Spirit Artifact.

The items his Superpower could scan also had limits.

For things of too high a level, like unknown entities such as the Tianshu Divine Mountain, it might not be possible to investigate.

He kept looking at the ancient tower ahead, and his vision didn’t change for a while.

Yet he wasn’t disheartened, as there was still considerable time before the Daoist of Five Treasures finished meditating, and he wasn’t in a hurry.

So, Lu Qing continued to gaze at the ancient tower.

A full quarter of an hour passed, and just when he thought the Superpower couldn’t reveal the ancient tower’s secrets and was about to give up,

suddenly, an overwhelmingly tangible purple Superpower Light erupted from the ancient tower, shooting into the sky.

Multiple information notes floated out from it.

"Is there movement?"

Lu Qing was initially startled but then filled with joy, eagerly scanning the information notes.
