Supreme Warrior in the City

Chapter 1318: Chapter 1317: Eight Coffins’ Spiritual Energy

Su Yang remembered all the contents on the wall, then returned to the location of the exit, knocked on the stone wall, and shouted loudly, ”Hey, I’ve seen everything on the wall, now you can let me out!”

There was no response from outside, it was as if the people outside couldn’t hear him speak at all.

Su Yang shouted a few more times, and when no one answered, he was taken aback. Those two old lamps, were they not waiting outside? Didn’t they say they would open the door for Su Yang after he looked at the contents on the wall?

Standing at the position of the exit, Su Yang was at a loss for words. He thought that after he understood the secret here, those two would open the door for him. But it seemed he thought too much. Those two old lamps probably weren’t waiting for him outside at all; this looked like they were playing a prank.

With no one opening the door, and Su Yang unable to open the passage himself, he had no choice but to go back into the original secret chamber after waiting for a while.

The eight Stone Coffins were still there, and everything around was the same as before.

Su Yang had already figured out the secrets here, and he also knew very well that he couldn’t open those eight Stone Coffins. So, there was nothing else for him to do here.

After wandering aimlessly for a while with nothing to do, Su Yang simply sat on the ground, took out the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones, set up the Spirit Gathering Array, and prepared to cultivate for a while.

Having just read the contents on the stone walls, Su Yang had gained a lot. He had initially planned to go back immediately after going out and to meditate in seclusion for a couple of days to cultivate. But since he couldn’t leave now, he might as well treat it as if he was in seclusion; this place was very secluded and quite suitable for cultivation.

After setting up the Spirit Gathering Array, Su Yang could clearly feel the Spiritual Energy surrounding him rushing toward him rapidly, all pouring into his Spirit Gathering Array. The abundant Spiritual Energy made Su Yang overwhelmed, as the rate at which he absorbed the Spiritual Energy couldn’t keep up with the speed at which it was coming.

Such a situation was something Su Yang had never encountered before. Although the Spirit Gathering Array could gather the surrounding Spiritual Energy, the fact that it was coming so fiercely was the first time he had seen it.

The only possibility for such a situation to occur was that the surrounding Spiritual Energy was extremely strong, so when Su Yang’s Spirit Gathering Array was laid out, the Spiritual Energy would rush toward it so quickly.

Su Yang hadn’t felt that the surrounding Spiritual Energy was strong when he was outside before. Could it be that the underground area was rich in Spiritual Energy?

Su Yang took a closer look around and suddenly discovered in astonishment that the eight Stone Coffins were emitting a faint glow. And the surging Spiritual Energy was actually coming from those eight Stone Coffins.

Su Yang was somewhat dumbfounded; he had thought that the situation was due to the abundance of underground Spiritual Energy. Now he realized that it was not because of the abundance of underground Spiritual Energy, but because he was absorbing the Spiritual Energy from inside those eight Stone Coffins.

The Spiritual Energy from inside the eight Stone Coffins was actually attracted by his Spirit Gathering Array; what exactly was happening?

Keep in mind that when Su Yang tried to open the eight Stone Coffins just before, he had exerted a great deal of effort and couldn’t shake the Stone Coffins in the slightest.

Yet, this small Spirit Gathering Array had managed to draw out the Spiritual Energy from within the eight Stone Coffins, a situation that unavoidably raised suspicions.

Su Yang walked out of the Spirit Gathering Array, ready to head over to the vicinity of those eight stone coffins to check out their condition.

But as he stepped out of the Spirit Gathering Array, he was shocked to discover that the surging Spiritual Energy was continuously rushing into those Four Divine Beast Jade Stones. It was as if the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones were absorbing the Spiritual Energy, a very bizarre phenomenon.

Su Yang was even more astonished. It was as though the Spiritual Energy had a mind of its own, constantly pouring into those Four Divine Beast Jade Stones.

However, before Su Yang could figure out what exactly was going on, another astonishing event occurred.

A portion of the Spiritual Energy bursting out from the stone coffins started to head towards him. And more specifically, it was aimed directly at the pocket of his upper garment.

Inside the pocket of Su Yang’s upper garment was Little Turtle. The Little Turtle usually hid in Su Yang’s pocket to sleep, and unless there were any major disturbances, it would not wake up.

The fact that this Spiritual Energy was directly targeting Little Turtle was even more surprising to Su Yang.

Su Yang hurriedly took Little Turtle out of his pocket, only to find that the Spiritual Energy was indeed heading towards Little Turtle, all rushing into its body. Yet, the Little Turtle didn’t seem to feel anything and was still soundly asleep.

What exactly was going on?

After observing carefully for a while, Su Yang found that the Spiritual Energy was not merely entering Little Turtle’s body. In just a short amount of time, Little Turtle’s body began to emit bursts of black light, and visible changes were occurring to its body as well.

Although Little Turtle had not grown much in size, its shell had become thicker, and its limbs had grown sturdier. It was as if the Spiritual Energy was nurturing Little Turtle, which was extremely weird.

Su Yang was very surprised, and he didn’t understand what exactly was happening.

Turning his gaze back to the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones, he noticed that the same thing was happening with them. The Four Divine Beast Jade Stones were all emitting light, and inside each of them, a Divine Beast seemed to stand. The surging Spiritual Energy was continuously nourishing these Divine Beasts, making the power within the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones grow stronger!

At that moment, Su Yang didn’t know whether to be speechless or happy. The Spiritual Energy was immense, yet it was of no use to him, instead, all entering the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones and Little Turtle’s body.

Fortunately, both the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones and Little Turtle belonged to Su Yang. The better nourished the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones and Little Turtle were, the greater the benefits Su Yang would reap in the future.

What Su Yang couldn’t figure out was what was going on with this Spiritual Energy? Why did it seem to have its own consciousness, and why was it nurturing the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones and Little Turtle?

Moreover, despite Su Yang standing right there, why wasn’t the Spiritual Energy nurturing him?

Could it be that this Spiritual Energy was discriminatory? Bestowing benefits only to the Four Divine Beast Jade Stones and Little Turtle, but unwilling to give any to Su Yang? Was it biased against humans?

Su Yang looked at the eight coffins; all of a sudden, he really wanted to see what was inside these eight Stone Coffins that led to such strange occurrences.
