AST 1545 - Titan Ox Strength, Miraculous Energy (1/2)
When they entered the palace hall, Qing Shui felt the pressure diminished greatly. However, this actually made Qing Shui somewhat depressed. Based on normal logic, the closer they got to the treasures, the more intense the pressure and danger would be. However, the Frenzied Bull Strength was still circulating speedily around his body, unbidden of his will.
He turned his head back and discovered Qin Qing’s face had turned completely pale as if she was under great pressure. Feeling taken aback, he sent a strand of Frenzied Bull Strength into her body.
In just an instant, Qin Qing felt that the pressure boring down on her had immediately diminished by a great deal. Just a while ago, the pressure was so intense that she couldn’t even breathe.
This made Qing Shui felt even more curious. What treasure was in here exactly? It was actually able to exude such a terrifying pressure.
Qing Shui paused a little before bowing to the Titan Ox Mountain. After that, he and Qin Qing walked into the palace.
This was an extremely vast place that was shaped in circular segments. Naturally, this palace was smaller in size compared to the mountain but was much larger than any other palace Qing Shui had seen before.
There wasn’t a single pillar in the palace to support it and the circular segments was so large that one couldn’t see the end of the curve. Thick layers of dust covered the ground and no traces of any disturbances could be seen. It must have been a long time ago since anyone came to this place.
After all, not everyone could withstand the pressure when attempting to enter. In addition, there were numerous herds of Blackfire Demon Oxen to contend with.
The dust here was very thin, roughly only about an inch thick. Qing Shui looked around and realized that everything was very clean and the air flow was good. A truly long time must have passed by to accumulate so many layers of dust on the ground!
If this was in his past life, this place would have been filled with dirt, dust, spider webs, bird droppings, etc…
As he stared at the surroundings, Qing Shui held Qin Qing’s hand as they walked in slowly.
“Sister Qin, there seems to be nothing here. What information do you have in this place?” Qing Shui had already felt that there should be some treasures here. He only wanted to know what exactly the treasures were.
“There seems to be a stone monument here with a technique engraved on it. Other than that, there still seemed to be some other treasures here, but I can’t vouch for the accuracy of the information.” Qin Qing directly replied.
Qin Qing knew that without Qing Shui, she wouldn’t be able to enter here. This already clearly indicated that Qing Shui was her fated one. She felt very happy in her heart when she realized that.
Their feet landed on the ground at the same time, kicking up a cloud of dust. The two of them walked in; the surrounding walls and ceilings were smooth and clean, which made Qing Shui suspicious of where the layers of dust on the ground came from.
The light from the palace was dim and air bubbles could be seen in some other locations. An indistinct energy could be sensed in the atmosphere, which caused Qing Shui to feel that there was something in here summoning him.
This path was very long, they took their time walking through it and half a day had already passed. When they turned around a corner, an inner palace hall appeared before them.
The only difference was that everything here was pristinely clean, with no dust on the ground compared to the outside. The spiritual Qi in the air was also extremely saturated and within the palace hall, a statue of a giant ox could be seen.
The form of this statue seemed similar to the Titan Ox Mountain but it had a sense of divinity to it. This giant statue was about 200 meters long and was extremely lifelike, exuding a sense of ferociousness.
When he saw the stone statue, Qing Shui knew that the indistinct energy he felt earlier must have originated from it. However, he later discovered that he was wrong when he saw the stone monument beside the stone statue.
This stone monument couldn’t be considered small; it was about over ten meters in length, thickness, and width. It was because it was too near to the stone statue and was partially blocked by the statue that Qing Shui didn’t see it earlier.
Other than this stone monument, there were no other things in here. Qing Shui turned his gaze to the monument.
