C27 cave (1/2)

Qin Shaojie followed the Sand Snake as they headed deeper into the Sky Wave Abyss.

This short distance wasn't too far away from Qin Shaojie, and as for the injuries on his body, they weren't serious, so Qin Shaojie was in no hurry to deal with them. However, the more they followed the sand snakes formed from the Wheel of Life and Death, the thinner the airflow became. In the end, even breathing was difficult.

Qin Shaojie hurriedly swallowed some of the suction pills he got from Elder Ye so that he could follow along.

Otherwise, without the flow of air in this place, before Qin Shaojie had stepped into the Genuine Force, it would have been impossible for him to survive in this environment for too long.

Finally, at the end of the line, the sand snake heard the words, and then, Qin Shaojie only saw the sand snake continuously smashing its head against the cliff, each time it collided against the cliff, it would let out a low thumping sound.

As the strong force descended, it was as if the Sand Snake had used its full strength every single time. This situation caused Qin Shaojie's expression to change, upon closer inspection, he discovered that every time the Sand Snake smashed its head, it would hit the same place on the cliff.

After dozens of collisions, cracks finally appeared on the cliff like a spider web, but the moment Qin Shaojie saw these cracks, his heart sank, because he realized that these cracks were actually emitting a sliver of light.

The light was not blinding, and was even somewhat gentle. However, this phenomenon was rather strange in this place. It could only mean that there was another world inside the cliff.

Fortunately, the pure physical impact did not have any direct effect on the Sand Snake, otherwise, Qin Shaojie would be worried that the Life and Death Wheel would not kill him. After all, even the Three Spiritual Realm Warriors would not be able to withstand a hundred hits.

Rumble rumble rumble!

Another fierce and accumulated collision occurred, and as the huge rumbling sound fell, a large hole also instantly appeared in front of Qin Shaojie. The light beams had lost its shield around the cliff, and even after passing through the hole, it still slanted completely, and at the same time, Qin Shaojie finally saw the situation inside through the hole that was big enough for two people to walk through side by side.

This was an open area, and there was nothing special about it. However, there must be something strange about this place for a sand snake to act like this.

After crashing into the hole, the Sand Snake seemed to be extremely excited, directly going in head first, then Qin Shaojie followed suit.

After entering, Qin Shaojie realised that although there was light, it was not natural sunlight. Instead, it was some kind of light source.

His eyes scanned the surroundings. It was too simple here. Other than the ground and the cave, which seemed relatively smooth, there were no other constructions.

”Is this it?”

Suddenly, the sand snake threw a fist sized jade bead in its mouth in front of it. The jade bead had a snow-white color with extremely complex patterns on its surface.

This light was not something that a candle could compare to. It was like a small sun, constantly emitting light. Seeing that the Sand Snake seemed to want to give it to him, Qin Shaojie carefully held it up as well.

After carefully examining the bead, he could not feel anything else other than the warmth and softness that came from it. However, when Qin Shaojie was alive, he had seen many good treasures, so he was able to tell at a glance that these beads without any impurities were definitely not simple.

Apart from anything else, the fact that it could continuously emit light and was quite bright was not something that the jewelry of the mortal world could compare to. If nothing went wrong, then these things must be related to the lines on its surface.

However, Qin Shaojie did not notice that the moment he held the jade pearl in his hand, the dark pupils of the sand serpent emitted a little light as well. He was clear that not just anyone could hold the jade pearl so that they would not be burned.

If one's blood energy was not enough and had a weak life force, then the moment they received the jade pearl, they would be immediately placed on the table. The fact that Qin Shaojie was not affected by the jade pearl, could only mean that his physical body's condition was not bad.

Rustle, rustle, rustle!

Turning his body, the Sand Snake also turned its head and walked into a corner of the cave. Its gaze looked over, and only then did it discover that there seemed to be something in the area where the Sand Snake had come from.

Perhaps it was due to the fact that the clothes on the skeleton had disappeared into ashes a long time ago, but the corpse on the skeleton was still rather intact.

The more powerful a martial artist was, the more intact their corpse would be. Some powerful characters would even be able to preserve their own flesh and blood.

There was nothing around the corpse, only a piece of sheepskin. There was nothing else.
