Chu Feng was unable to do anything about Song Yunâs stubbornness, so he could only bring her together with him in the end.
Following the directions on the map, he soon got to the location indicated on the map.
It was hidden in an ordinary forest.
Similar to the key formations he had encountered earlier, if oneâs senses werenât sharp enough, one wouldnât be able to perceive the spirit formation gate even if one was standing right before it.
Chu Feng was still able to see the key formations with his Heavenâs Eye, but he was unable to see or sense the spirit formation gates at all.
âBig brother Chu Feng, are you sure this is it? To be frank with you, Iâm a Dragon Mark Saint-cloak World Spiritist too. Even though my skills are nowhere on par with yours, Iâm still quite confident in the keenness of my senses. However, I canât sense anything here.â
Song Yun was not the type of person to stay still. She leaped to one of the tree branches above and shook her legs leisurely as she spoke to Chu Feng.
âLass, youâre indeed quite talented, but youâre still too inexperienced. Take a look at this.â
With a smile, Chu Feng released his spirit power. Using his hand as a brush and his spirit power as ink, he swiftly painted out a peculiar formation before him. This formation was unusual in the sense that it had the form of a formation, but not the strength of one.
âThis is... a constellation map?â
However, Song Yunâs eyes lit up upon seeing the formation.
She realized that the formation Chu Feng drew out was a part of the brilliant map covering the sky.
âIndeed. It looks like youâre still a qualified Saint-cloak World Spiritist.â
Chu Feng nodded in approval. He tapped his finger lightly, and the formation in front of him immediately drifted forward.
Weng!
However, the formation suddenly stopped moving, as if it had bumped into something, before abruptly dissipating away, scattering sparks all over the place. In the wake of the sparks, an object began to surface.
It was a stone door.
âWaaa, how incredible! You managed to find it!â
Song Yun leaped down from the tree as she clapped her hands enthusiastically.
Even though there was nothing outstanding about the stone door, it was clear to her that this was one of the three spirit formation gates.
âLass, Iâll first put it out here clearly. I donât know where the spirit formation gate leads to, but itâs bound to have many lurking dangers. If you insist on following me in, I canât guarantee your safety. I wonât be taking responsibility for anything that happens to you inside there,â Chu Feng told Song Yun.
âDonât worry, big brother Chu Feng. I wonât cause any trouble for you! I also promise that I wonât become your burden too. If I reach my limits, Iâll immediately turn tail and run away.â
Song Yun looked at Chu Feng as she made a promise.
With her insisting on it so adamantly, Chu Feng had no choice but to bring her together with him.
As soon as the two of them passed through the spirit formation gate, the stone gate swiftly vanished from sight. However, it had only turned invisible once more,
The stone door was still right behind Chu Feng and Song Yun at the moment, which meant that they could choose to escape with things were to turn awry.
Seeing this, Chu Feng heaved a sigh of relief before assessing his surroundings carefully.
The world beyond the spirit formation gate was a small cavern.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chu Feng knew that this cavern was made out of a spirit formation, but it still looked as realistic as it could get to him. He was unable to discern anything amiss with it.
It showed that the world spiritist had already reached a level where he could confuse falsehood with reality. This made it clear that this world spiritist was far stronger than Chu Feng.
However, Chu Fengâs attention wasnât on whether the cavern was real or not at the moment. He was too busy trying to figure out the crux of the cavern.
He slowly walked forward, but barely after taking a few steps, he suddenly halted his footsteps. The reason behind that was because he realized that Song Yun wasnât walking at all.
She was standing still on the spot with a lowered head, looking downcast.
Confused by her current state, Chu Feng asked concernedly, âLass, whatâs wrong?â
âBig brother Chu Feng, thereâs something weird about the formation here. I think Iâll need to leave the area. Otherwise, I might implicate you,â Song Yun said.
However, Chu Feng was delighted to hear those words. From the start, he had never wanted to bring Song Yun in out of fear that something would happen to her. He wasnât confident of ensuring her safety, thus he felt more at ease with her not around.
âOf course! Itâs the crux of the second trial, so itâs bound to be dangerous. If youâre intending to leave, Iâll escort you out.â
Chu Feng turned around and dragged Song Yun toward the stone gate, hoping to take her out.
Despite Song Yunâs earlier obstinacy, this time around, she followed him obediently. However, just as they were about to step through the stone gate, she suddenly halted her footsteps.
âIâll leave if you want me to, but you must eat this first,â Song Yun said as she took out a pill from inside her sleeves.
The pill was golden in color, but there were black bits on it. It looked reminiscent of a pearl.
âLass, are you planning on poisoning me again?â Chu Feng asked as he examined the peculiar pill in front of him with a deep frown.
He found that he was unable to see through the nature of the pill.
âHow rude! Big brother Chu Feng, when have I harmed you before? Hurry up and consume it. Itâll definitely help you later on!â Song Yun said.
âFine fine fine, Iâll swallow it.â
Chu Feng took the pill and popped it into his mouth.
As soon as he swallowed it, he realized that the pill immediately headed right toward the depths of his soul. Following that, a bizarre aura began sweeping across his entire body, seemingly assimilating itself with him.
It was just that the speed of the assimilation was a little slow.
âLass, what in the world is that pill?â Chu Feng asked.
âItâs good stuff, you donât need to worry about it. Itâll take some time for you to digest it, but I can assure you that youâll thank me once youâre done with it! Alright, big brother Chu Feng, Iâll really be leaving now!â
Song Yun chuckled softly before heading out of the stone door.
âThis lass, she always acts so mysteriously...â
Chu Feng shook his head as he watched Song Yunâs body disappear inside the stone door. He took another look at the pill inside his body, but he was still unable to discern what it was. In the end, he decided to just turn his attention away from it for the time being and focus on the formation inside the cavern.
Chu Feng would have never imagined that the pill he just ate was actually the real Divine Rejuvenation Pearl. However, it wasnât the pure Divine Rejuvenation Pearl because Song Yun had mixed another ingredient into it.
Song Yun had headed out of the stone door with a smile, but when she reappeared once more, her face had already turned incredibly livid.
