Quincy asked, âIs it possible to train, even just with half of it?â
âYeah, it is,â Zayne replied. âBut thereâs no way that we could actually become cultivators! One thing
though, this definitely greatly improved my training.â
Alex pondered and asked, âIf youâre willing to, Mr. York, you can Show me the Drifter Skill Book once
weâre out of here. Iâll see if I can help make some changes to it.â
âChange⦠The book?â
Not only Zayne was shocked, but Freya was surprised as well.
âAll skill books that were passed down for generations had been fully thought out and practiced. How
can you just say that youâre going to change it after taking a look? Are you for real now?â
âDonât be so shocked,â replied Waltz. âMy brotherâs skills are out of this world. You simply cannot
imagine what he can do. He amended my skills and Mayaâs as well.â
âAh⦠Heâs that powerful?â
Just as Zayne was getting fired up, the water levels had reached the very bottom. Everyone could feel
the ground beneath their feet.
Flashing their lights, everyone realized that this place was flared. The upper level was larger, whereas
the bottom was small.
The bottom was around two square miles, so it got quite crowded even though they werenât exactly a
large group.
âWhereâs Mr. Lambert?â
âYeah! Where did that old man go? Even if he did die from that fall, his corpse should be here! How
could there be no trace of him at all?â
âThe water drained pretty quickly, so there must be an exit here. Where else would all that water go?â
asked Dorothy.
Quincy turned his flashlight to the top. âIf a bunch of rocks or sand, or worse, mercury, fell from above
right now, weâre so dead!â
Rocks, sand, and mercury were very common traps within heavily protected tombs like these.
âOh, shut up! Donât jinx it!â Susan snapped, seemingly annoyed. âLetâs all go look for the exit. Since
they have such hidden mechanisms here, I donât think theyâd want to kill us here.â
In just a few moments, they found a blueprint. It was a formation blueprint.
Upon seeing this, Alex noticed how it seemed familiar. lt was oddly similar to the third sword of
Dragonâs Bane of Thirty Six, called the Breaking Point.
Dorothy asked, âSo? Can you solve this?â
âLet me seeâ¦â
Alex focused the image within his mind just to complete the Breaking Pointâs formation blueprint with
the current one at hand.
Alex was delighted. The blueprints were the exact opposite of each other, like yin and yang. These
blueprints could offset each otherâs flaws.
Not only would Alex be able to use Breaking Pointâs blueprint to solve this, but he could also figure out
how to use the third sword as well.
Within ten minutes, Alex succeeded in solving it and moved some core points in the formation
blueprint. After hearing the crackling noises of a machine, a stone door opened slowly and steadily.
The door frame looked as if it was made of both water and glass. No one could tell what was inside.
Alex knew that this was a force field formed by the blueprint.
Everyone mentally prepared themselves while Alex was the first to step into the force field. His body
started to waver slightly within it.
After a slight shift in his vision, he felt as if he had just gone through a barrier.
His eyes lit up as soon as he saw a large pond filled with lotuses.
âThe Soul Substitute Lotus Seed!â
Alex was excited. âWeâve been through so much, and we finally found it!â
