She returned to where the light was the brightest and moved to the left. The light on the bracelet also dimmed. When she moved to the right, the light on the bracelet became brighter.
She kept moving to the right until she reached a stone. The bracelet was so bright it was blinding.
Gu Bailu said excitedly, “It should be here! Get rid of the stone.”
The stone was moved away, but there was nothing underneath. After digging a few meters, they didn’t find anything.
“This is it. Dig. We’ll definitely dig something up.”
After digging the last dozen meters, there was still nothing suspicious.
“That’s weird. This is obviously the place with the biggest reaction. It must be down here.”
“We can’t dig anymore. It’s almost dawn. We have to put it back the way it was,” said Feng Qingtian.
Gu Bailu was a little disappointed. If she missed the chance today, it wouldn’t be so easy next time. Su Shenfan and Xiao Jingyun would definitely guard the location of the pill refinement.
Bu Yaolian was keeping Su Shenfan busy today.
Gu Bailu’s people were also openly keeping an eye on Xiao Jingyun since she was certain that he was pretending to be unconscious.
With neither of them around, this was the perfect opportunity.
“Dig deeper. It should be down there… Once we find it, we can put things back the way they were.” Gu Bailu gritted her teeth.
“Princess, it seems it’s hollow down below… The sound is different now,” Ye Qi said loudly from where he was standing in the deep hole.
“Hurry and dig.” Gu Bailu was excited. “My lord, the heavens don’t let down those who work hard. The place where the pill is being refined is actually so far down.”
Feng Qingtian rubbed her head. “That’s because you persevered.”
“It’s open. There’s light…” Ye Qi’s voice came again, accompanied by the clamor of what sounded like something turning.
Gu Bailu looked into the hole. What the hell? There was a wheel that was spinning very fast at the bottom, like an electric fan, and it was larger than the hole they had dug.
If they went any further down, it would be like a meat mixer.
If they went down, they would become minced meat and turned into the dregs at the bottom of a pot sooner or later.
The problem was that there was more than one of these massive meat mixers at intervals all the way down, occupying the entire cavern.
“See if there’s a stop mechanism,” Gu Bailu said.
Feng Qingtian shook his head. “Stop looking. There shouldn’t be any here. This isn’t a regular exit. It’s a dead end. They wouldn’t come out from here.”
Gu Bailu was furious. She knew that the regular exits should be nearby, but she didn’t have time to find them.
“But it’s not impossible. I’ll see if I can go down.” Feng Qingtian couldn’t bear to disappoint her. He could turn his body hard like diamond, so this human blender might not be able to hurt him.
“No! No, I can’t let you take the risk. Absolutely not.”
No matter how much she wanted to succeed, Gu Bailu wouldn’t risk Feng Qingtian’s body.
“Don’t worry. Have you forgotten who I am?” Feng Qingtian patted her back and comforted her.
“Things are different now.” Gu Bailu thought for a moment. “I’ll see if the immobilization rune can stop it.”
She couldn’t let Feng Qingtian take the risk, nor did she want to give up.
Gu Bailu casually tossed out a ten-word rune, which floated down to the spinning surface. With the sound of a click, the meat mixer stopped.
“Princess, it stopped! It stopped!”
Gu Bailu blinked. “It was that simple. I really am awesome.”
Feng Qingtian flew down with her and stopped on the top of the meat mixer.
Using this method, Gu Bailu stopped all the meat mixers below. When she reached the bottom, it was a completely different world. It was like another palace!
