Chapter 280 The Big White Goose’s Surprise (2)
Along the way, all the other animals fled in panic.
The big white goose led the way. Su Jing was in the middle, followed by the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf.
A goose, a man, and a wolf finally arrived at a cliff.
The steep cliff was hundreds of feet tall and extended for more than a thousand meters.
“There’s no road ahead. Brother Goose, why did you bring me here?”
Su Jingxing was puzzled.
Ga ga!
The big white goose called out softly and continued flying to the left along the mountain wall.
Seeing this, Su Jingxing could only continue to follow.
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf wagged its tail and followed behind in boredom.
After another ten minutes, the big white goose finally stopped in front of an uneven mountain wall.
“Is there anything special here?” Su Jingxing looked around.
Swish!
The big white goose didn’t respond. It only glowed and released a white light beam that shone on the mountain wall.
Then, to Su Jingxing’s surprise, the mountain wall covered by the light beam quickly turned transparent. Finally, it completely disappeared, revealing a deep and quiet entrance to a cave.
Two meters tall and one meter wide.
Ga ga!
The big white goose turned its head and called out to Su Jingxing twice before flying into the cave.
Su Jingxing snapped back to his senses and followed behind it into the cave.
Aah ooh!
The Giant Silver-Winged Wolf also wanted to enter, but it was too big and could only fit its head inside. It couldn’t help but cry out anxiously.
“Brother Wolf, keep guard outside. We’ll be right out,” Su Jingxing turned his head and comforted him.
Aah ooh-! Helpless, the Giant Silver-Winged Wolf could only lie down at the cave entrance and shake its tail dejectedly.
Su Jingxing held back his laughter and continued moving forward. The mysterious passageway was winding and deep. Su Jingxing only kept going deeper because he trusted the big white goose. Crack, crack…
Before long, stones appeared on the ground of the passageway. Su Jingxing followed the big white goose as they walked. After a while, he suddenly realized that the width of the path had increased.
Immediately, he walked faster, heading deeper.
Crack! Crack!
After walking for about ten minutes, a cool breeze blew past. The scenery in front of Su Jingxing’s eyes suddenly became brighter and bigger.
Whoosh!
What greeted his eyes was a spacious and open underground space.
The space was huge and bright.
A ray of light that shot in from somewhere illuminated the entire space well.
Not only was there good vision, there was also outstanding ventilation.
Su Jingxing stood at the entrance and could even feel a light breeze blowing towards him.
The breeze carried a hint of fragrance, as if it was the fragrance of some strange flower. While it refreshed one’s mind, it also made one feel exceptionally comfortable.
“Tsk, I didn’t expect there to be such strange scenery inside the mountain wall of the valley.”
Su Jingxing took a deep breath and scanned the entire underground space.
A simple thatched cottage stood in the center. Ten steps away from the front door of the cottage, there was a stream about a meter wide that meandered through a few large stones. The gurgling sound of the stream echoed in the underground space, sounding extremely pleasant.
On the bank of the stream were a few water-type plants with wide leaves.
Su Jingxing watched for a moment and slowly walked towards the cottage.
“Brother Goose, does anyone live here?”
Su Jingxing shouted at the big white goose as he walked.
His voice resounded in the underground space, but there was no echo.
Ga ga!
The big white goose shook its head, flapped its wings, and pointed at the cottage.
Seeing this, Su Jingxing quickly walked up to the cottage and pushed open the wooden door.
His movements were very light, afraid of triggering any mechanism.
However, the moment he opened the door, his pupils abruptly constricted.
The thatched cottage was not very big. There were no tables, chairs or beds, only a lot of hay laid in the central area.
At this moment, a snow-white skeleton was seated motionless on the hay mat. Its empty black eye sockets were facing the door, directly facing Su Jingxing!
Su Jingxing blinked.
He was a little surprised, but not frightened.
It’s just a skeleton. It’s not like I’ve never seen one before.
After calming himself down, he walked into the house.
Sweeping his gaze, he walked to a wall on the left and took off a silver-white robe with a rather special quality hanging on the wall. Rubbing it with his hand, he found that the robe did not show any signs of spoiling. He could not help but smile. Shaking the robe to remove the dust on it, he put it into his palm space.
This robe was clearly not an ordinary piece of clothing. It was a custom-made outfit, a treasure robe.
In ancient times, there were all kinds of precious clothes.
They were for defense, support, or nurturing the mind.
The functions of the one that Su Jingxing obtained were unknown for the time being. He would put it away first.
He turned around and sized up the entire room.
In addition to the skeleton that had been dead for an unknown period of time, there were two sealed black books in a corner of the room, as well as three white jade stones that emitted a faint silver glow and were only the size of a baby’s fist.
The jade looked to be of good quality, but Su Jingxing preferred the former.
Immediately, he walked over, squatted down, picked up one of the books, and wiped off the dust on it. He blew on it and opened it gently. Then, a few bold words appeared.
“Tiangang Demon Suppression Hand, a soul skill!”
A soul skill!
This black book was actually a soul skill!
Su Jingxing’s eyes lit up, and his right hand trembled as he flipped through the book.
Su Jingxing never expected to pick up a soul skill after following the big white goose to this underground space.
“No, this soul skill isn’t complete. There’s only the upper half, and it’s missing some
parts!”
Su Jingxing quickly flipped through the pages and browsed through them. The incomplete upper half.
If it were anyone else, it would really be useless.
Su Jingxing was different. He had the Deduction Card, which was enough to make up for it.
Therefore, the gains were not bad.
“Hu-_”
He took a deep breath.
After a while, Su Jingxing suppressed his racing heart, put away the book, and picked up the second one.
Just as he stood up, he suddenly sensed something and looked down at the item under the second book.
Circular rings!
Three identical, slightly rusted circular rings!
“Nine Souls Ring?!”
Exclaiming in shock, Su Jingxing turned to look at the big white goose at the door.
Ga ga! Ga ga~
The big white goose jumped up and down, honking excitedly. It seemed to be asking, are you surprised? Are you happy?
Happy, of course I’m happy.
Surprised? This is more than surprising!
He never expected that the big white goose’s objective in bringing him here was to give him the circular rings.
The three unknown rings were actually in the cave in the mountain wall of the valley where the big white goose lived.
Without the big white goose leading the way, almost no one would have discovered this place.
After another thousand or 800 years, still no one would know.
Hu!
Exhaling, Su Jingxing picked up three rings and thanked the big white goose at the door. “Thank you, Brother Goose!”
Ga ga! Ga ga!
The big white goose honked excitedly.
Spiritual beasts were intelligent.
The big white goose was even more outstanding
Su Jingxing saved it, then it saw the ring, and heard Su Jingxing’s sigh.
Almost immediately, the big white goose recalled the straw cottage that it had visited out of curiosity in this underground space.
The big white goose had seen the skeleton, the books, and the circular rings before.
As for opening and closing the door, it was nothing to the big white goose.
This was not a one for one, but just the big white goose’s gratitude to Su Jingxing.
Su Jingxing sighed with emotion.
Instead of rushing to activate the circular rings, he flipped through the second book.
The second book was not an ultimate martial art, but wrote about a martial arts theory.
One about taking the path of a pure physical body. After stepping into the fourth-grade, instead of using true fluid to nourish the mind, continue to build the body, strengthen it, and push the physical body to peak level, or even become a Martial Sage with the physical body’s capabilities.
Su Jingxing flipped through the pages and couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder.
The skeleton was undoubtedly a genius when he was alive.
This was no longer creating his own martial arts, but creating a new path.
If it succeeded, it would bring about a revolutionary change to future martial artists.
Instead of using true fluid to nourish his mind, become a Martial Sage with his physical body.
A genius, or crazy idea.
Thanks to Yue Dongliu, Su Jingxing already knew what was going on in the top ranks and the transcendent-grade.
The most important thing about a first-grade martial artist was not the diversity of Martial Art True Intent or the abundance of true essence.
Instead, it was condensing a Divine Embryo!
Only by condensing a Divine Embryo could an Essence Soul be born.
Yet this skeleton sought to replace the Essence Soul with the physical body when it was alive!
