"Indeed, it can really run!" Zhao Yue said with a slight smile.
Lin Bai looked at Zhao Yue strangely, could this Divine Spirit Pool really run?
Zhao Yue whispered, "According to legend, this Divine Spirit Pool was formed from the dantian of a Great Divine Expert after their death during the Primordial Era. Over countless years, the Divine Spirit Pool slowly condensed spiritual wisdom!"
"Hence, the Divine Spirit Pool is capable of moving, and its intelligence is no less than that of an ordinary warrior!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Bai realized and said, "So that’s how it is, it’s a relic from the Primordial Era."
Zhao Yue whispered, "Actually, on the Nanzhou Continent, there are quite a few relics from the Primordial Era, such as the Divine Spirit Pool, Ancestral Temple, Corpse Burying River, Dragon Tomb, and so forth!"
"The most famous ones are only these."
"Dragon Tomb?" Lin Bai’s expression suddenly shifted upon hearing the name, and an image of an old turtle and a little girl appeared in his mind.
Back then, the old turtle mentioned taking Bauer to Nanzhou to find the Dragon Tomb.
Lin Bai didn’t believe in the existence of a Dragon Tomb in Nanzhou.
But now, hearing Zhao Yue’s words, he was surprised to learn that the Dragon Tomb truly exists in Nanzhou.
"By the way, Bauer and that old turtle should also be in Nanzhou, I wonder if I’ll meet them." Lin Bai said softly to himself, feeling nostalgic for Bauer, whom he hadn’t seen in years.
If he could find Bauer in Nanzhou this time, it would be the best outcome.
Seeing Lin Bai’s contemplative expression, Zhao Yue smiled slightly and said, "Let’s go, we’ll head directly to where the Divine Spirit Pool is said to be and see if it’s still there!"
With that said, the Spirit Boat sped swiftly across the sky above the Nanzhou Continent.
Throughout the journey, Lin Bai enjoyed the scenery of the Nanzhou Continent from the Spirit Boat, feeling especially delighted.
The Nanzhou Continent, with its wilderness and antiquity, is dotted with Immortal mountains.
In the mountain wilds, white mist coils, colorful clouds surge, cranes fly, presenting a scene of the Immortal Dao.
The sun’s gentle glow shines upon the land, with warriors leaping from the forest, roaming among the mountains upon cloud tops, like Immortals who have entered the world.
"If one day I wish to retire from the Jianghu, I would surely bring my parents and Xiaoxiao and others here to Nanzhou to live in seclusion." Though Lin Bai had not long entered Nanzhou, he was already quite fond of this place.
"Unfortunately, such a life of seclusion is still a far-off dream for me."
Lin Bai shook his head silently.
The Spirit Boat flew across most of the Territories above the Nanzhou Continent.
A month later, Zhao Yue led Lin Bai directly into the central part of the Nanzhou Continent.
This day, the Spirit Boat came to a stop.
"We’re here?"
Standing on the Spirit Boat, Lin Bai asked curiously.
Immediately, Lin Bai looked up and saw a series of majestic mountains ahead, with numerous palatial buildings standing there, and many warriors living and thriving in the area.
Especially the palaces built on mountain cliffs, which appeared particularly luxurious and grand.
This was a tribe.
And seemingly, this place was no small tribe.
Zhao Yue whispered, "We’ve arrived."
Lin Bai frowned and asked, "There’s a tribe here, do you know it?"
Zhao Yue shook her head and said, "I don’t know it!"
Lin Bai frowned slightly as he looked at Zhao Yue.
Zhao Yue softly said, "When I found the Divine Spirit Pool here ten thousand years ago, this place was still a barren forest, with nothing but some prehistoric giant beasts within hundreds of thousands of miles!"
"Now, ten thousand years have passed, and a tribe has settled and thrived here."
Lin Bai suddenly understood, ten thousand years indeed could change many things under heaven.
"Let’s go, since we’re already here, naturally we should go and see if the Divine Spirit Pool is still around?" Zhao Yue guided the Spirit Boat to slowly descend from the cloud tops.
Landing outside the tribe, they did not enter it conspicuously.
Lin Bai asked, "Can you still find the Divine Spirit Pool?"
Zhao Yue shook her head and said, "The terrain here is vastly different from when I came ten thousand years ago. Now, I can’t locate the exact direction of the Divine Spirit Pool; moreover, with a tribe settled here, the mountains are filled with magic circle prohibitions!"
"With our current cultivation, attempting to break through these magic circle prohibitions to find the Divine Spirit Pool is likely courting death!"
"As you can see, the tribe here boasts over ten thousand palace buildings, with a main city within. Thus, it must be a major tribe on Nanzhou!"
"Don’t rush, let’s first go in and have a look!"
Zhao Yue and Lin Bai landed and slowly walked toward the tribe.
Lin Ye cautiously followed behind Lin Bai.
Zhao Yue, in a white robe unsullied by any speck of dust, exuded an ethereal aura, like a fairy on earth. As she entered the tribe, she caught the attention of many warriors.
Walking down the street, Lin Bai glanced at the houses on both sides, seeing many places adorned with the Azure Dragon emblem.
And the warriors living here mostly had Azure Dragon emblems on their robes, representing that they were warriors of this tribe.
"Azure Dragon..."
Lin Bai observed the emblems on the structures and the warriors, murmuring softly.
"Let’s first inquire what tribe this is." Zhao Yue walked into the tribe and approached a pharmacy, saying calmly to Lin Bai, then entered.
Lin Bai followed Zhao Yue into the pharmacy.
Inside the pharmacy, warriors were very busy.
But upon seeing Lin Bai, Zhao Yue, and Lin Ye enter, a wealthy-looking middle-aged man warmly greeted them and asked, "Welcome, everyone. This old man is the shopkeeper of this pharmacy. Judging by your appearance, it seems you aren’t warriors of our Qinglong Tribe?"
Zhao Yue, with white veil covering half her face, still couldn’t hide her extraordinary aura.
Even through the veil, the shopkeeper could tell Zhao Yue was a peerless beauty, making him more attentive.
Zhao Yue smiled and said, "Coming to a pharmacy, naturally we’re here for medicine. My brother here has sustained some injuries, with his dantian and divine elixir exhausted. I wonder if your esteemed shop has any treasures to restore his dantian and divine elixir!"
"If you have any, please bring them forth. As for money, there’s no need to worry."
Zhao Yue said with a faint smile.
Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper looked at Lin Bai and said with a smile, "Could I examine you, brother?"
Lin Bai awkwardly extended an arm, looking at Zhao Yue and grumbled internally: When did I become your brother?
Seeming to discern the question in Lin Bai’s eyes, Zhao Yue smiled gently, her eyes narrowed in a way that suggested taking advantage of Lin Bai made her quite happy.
The shopkeeper placed a hand on Lin Bai’s wrist, sensing the dried-up dantian and divine elixir within him, and immediately frowned, shaking his head, "Difficult, difficult, difficult. Brother, did you employ some forbidden skill, depleting all potential from your divine elixir and dantian?"
Lin Bai nodded silently and said, "Yes!"
The shopkeeper frowned and said, "Logically, after using such a forbidden skill and depleting all potential from your dantian and divine elixir, you should have died!"
"There must have been a master who used some Heaven-Connecting Secret Method to save you, right?"
Lin Bai looked at Zhao Yue upon hearing this, knowing full well that the person who saved him was indeed Zhao Yue, then nodded and said, "Indeed, someone saved me!"
The shopkeeper said, "Looks like I guessed right. Brother, with the injuries to your dantian and divine elixir, ordinary medicine is basically useless. Our Qinglong Tribe can’t help you!"
"Unless you can enter the Dragon Pool!"
"Go back."
The shopkeeper shook his head and said.
