The golden glow illuminated the entire cave, casting a resplendent golden radiance all around.
Surrounding the small stone pillar was a pool, filled with a milky white liquid that was very thick and appeared to be like cow's milk.
The intense fragrance he had smelled before emanated from that pool.
What shocked Duan Gujin was that upon entering this place, the intense fragrance he sensed became purer and purer, even making him feel comfortable throughout his body as if all his fatigue had vanished.
He even felt that every single cell in his body was greedily absorbing the aroma.
That's when he realized that there weren't any Spiritual Medicines here; it was the water in the pool that gave him that wondrous sensation.
With a keen eye, Duan Gujin noticed a squirrel by the side of the pool, only as big as his fist.
The squirrel's little eyes blinked continuously as it gazed at Duan Gujin.
While looking at Duan Gujin, it greedily absorbed the water from the pool.
"Hello there, my friend!"
Duan Gujin speculated that the squirrel might very well be from the Devil Clan, so he hastily greeted it.
However, the squirrel didn't react at all and still stared at Duan Gujin with wide eyes full of confusion.
A flash in Duan Gujin's eyes, and he thought that the squirrel might not understand the Human Clan's language.
So, he swiftly sent out a Divine Thought.
As long as the squirrel had awakened its Divine Wisdom, it should respond in some way.
But after a while, the squirrel still didn't respond, nor did it counter the Divine Thought he emitted.
Duan Gujin exhaled a turbid breath, deducing that the squirrel had not yet awakened its Divine Wisdom.
That's why it did not respond to his Divine Thought.
Thereupon, Duan Gu started searching for a damp patch of earth, and with a swipe of his right foot on the ground, he wrote a line of characters.
"Can you speak?"
But the squirrel had no response, its little eyes still wide open, staring at Duan Duan Gu Jin.
This time, Duan Gu understood—the squirrel was likely not from the Devil Clan, and it was quite wary of this foreign intruder.
Duan Gu knew it was normal for the little squirrel to be wary of him.
After all, he was now just an outsider intruding.
He concentrated his Divine Sense on the little stone pillar, wanting to know what was inside that could emit such a golden glow.
With that, he leaped up and flew towards it.
But after a while, he shook his head.
Although his Divine Sense entered the stone pillar, there was an energy inside blocking his Divine Sense Inspection, preventing him from clearly seeing what was inside.
Left with no choice, Duan Gujin could only leap back to where he had been standing before.
This time, he focused his attention on the white liquid inside the pool.
Once he got a clear look at what that white liquid in the pool really was, he was utterly astonished.
"My god! Could this liquid be the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk?"
In his previous life, he had personally sampled a thumb-sized amount of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk and knew it to be an exceptionally rare treasure.
The reason he had not connected the water in the pool with the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk essence of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Liquid earlier was because he hadn't associated the two.
"Could it be that my eyes are deceiving me?"
Duan Gujin was somewhat disbelieving of his own eyes, so he hurriedly slapped his cheeks and even pinched himself hard.
Assured he was not dreaming, he quickly took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
Having experienced the wonders of the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk in his previous life and knowing how precious it was, he never dreamed that there would actually be a pool of it before his eyes now, making it difficult for his heart to quickly settle down.
The Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk has a very miraculous function—it can rapidly restore a Martial Artist's Divine Soul.
In the cultivation world, the recovery of one's Divine Soul is extremely difficult.
Elixir Pills that can restore a Martial Artist's Divine Soul are incredibly precious, some are even exorbitantly priced.
Duan Gujin's eyes flashed as he thought of the exchange rate that was popular in the Divine World.
Ten pounds of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk could be exchanged for one Low Grade Divine Weapon.
Even though there is a lot of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk in the Divine World, it is still very rare and valuable, much like Heaven and Earth Spiritual Liquid.
Duan Gujin was so excited he nearly jumped up.
"Good heavens!"
He forced himself to calm down, then took some of the white liquid from the pool to taste.
"That's right! This is the real Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk!"
He had tasted Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk in his previous life, so he knew its flavor and the sensation it gave when entering the body.
Thus, he could tell that the white liquid in the pool was indeed Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk.
He became instantly excited, wishing he could pack up everything in front of him and take it all away.
Just then, the little squirrel started chirping.
Duan Gujin's eyebrows slightly furrowed, feeling the need to understand the identity of the squirrel.
If it was just an ordinary squirrel, he would relocate it to a safe place, ensuring it could continue to thrive.
Even though the squirrel could live very well here, this place was too desolate and very dangerous; he felt he should take the squirrel to a place where it rightfully belonged.
Duan Gujin sent out his Divine Thought to the squirrel again, wanting to know if it had developed Divine Wisdom.
After a while, the squirrel still did not respond.
He exhaled a turbid breath and, in order to be sure whether the squirrel had Divine Wisdom, he swiftly captured it.
Once caught, the squirrel started to screech frantically.
Fear filled its eyes.
Duan Gujin's Divine Sense entered the squirrel's body and after a while, he realized its internal Primordial Power was abundant, at least equivalent to the Cultivation of the Martial Master Realm.
However, he did not detect that the squirrel had cultivated any Cultivation Technique, it seemed as if it naturally possessed the Cultivation of the Martial Master Realm.
After examining the squirrel's internal organs and meridians, Duan Gujin found that it truly hadn't cultivated any Cultivation Technique.
This meant that the squirrel couldn't utilize the Primordial Power within its body.
He frowned slightly, surprised that such a squirrel also possessed Cultivation equivalent to the Martial Master Realm.
"It must be because it drank the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk here that it has gained the Cultivation of the Martial Master Realm!"
Duan Gujin thought to himself.
He then released the squirrel, not intending to make things difficult for it.
"I should check how deep this pool is!"
Duan Gujin immediately began to probe the depth of the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk in the pool with his hands.
After a while, he thought that he should be able to extract ten cubic meters of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk.
"Today's haul is really huge!"
Duan Gujin exhaled, feeling his luck was incredibly good.
As he prepared to move the Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk, suddenly, the little squirrel chirped a few times.
In the next moment, its figure flashed and it disappeared as a fleeting shadow.
Duan Gujin's expression changed slightly, his eyes blinked rapidly a few times.
"Forget it, never mind the squirrel! I'll take it with me after I've explored this place!"
Duan Gujin temporarily lost interest in the squirrel, only wanting to get his hands on the pool of Ten-thousand-year-old Divine Milk first.
