C2346 The Secret of Teleportation

The five-colored altar seemed to be made from some kind of unknown stone. Although it had experienced the invasion of time, it didn't seem to be damaged at all. Only a few small, sparkling grains of sand were left around the altar.

"Kid, what are you looking at? Could it be that they were provoked by the Nine Suns Heaven Changing Wood and suspected that the thing is hiding under the altar? " Seeing Lin Bai's appearance, the Yin spirit water beast widened its eyes, curiously sizing him up, with an eager look on its face, as if as soon as Lin Bai gave the order, it would use its hooves to pry open the altar and see what was below.

"Don't move, just stay put!" Lin Bai waved his hand and dispelled the thought of the Yin Qi and Water Beast. He then said with a wry smile, "I want to see what drove this altar, but unfortunately, there is nothing."

When the Yin Master and the Water Beast heard this, their eyes became listless and their heads drooped down. Their cow eyes started to look around again. Right now, it was still a bit unrelenting in its evil intentions. It always felt that the Nine Suns Heaven Changing Wood was very likely to be hiding nearby. As long as it was carefully investigated, it would definitely be able to find its whereabouts.

What was it? His heart felt as if it had fallen into a deep abyss. Although he could see that the engravings on the five-colored altar were incomparably complex and profound, if he could figure out ten to twenty percent of it, no matter for himself or for anyone else, it would be a lifetime of inundation.

But unfortunately, he didn't have the heart to ponder it at all. Li Qing Nannan and Sophia could be said to be the meat on his heart, and towards these two smart and playful girls, he was even more pampered. Now, when he thought about how these two little girls were treated as slaves and served by others, he felt as if his heart was being pierced by knives.

This kind of feeling was like a girl that he had raised with much difficulty, but had her heart snatched away by an incomparably ugly fellow. This kind of feeling made Lin Bai not have the heart to care about other things.

"Brat, this is all fate. Even if you have succeeded at defying the rules, it doesn't mean that you can escape from this life-long trap. Unless you can become it …" How could the Yin Qi and Water Beast not know what Lin Bai was thinking? He shook his head and sighed.

Lin Bai sighed lightly. He did not answer the Yin and Water Beast's question and continued to search the altar. Unfortunately, even though he was extremely meticulous, he still could not find anything.

"Brother Lin, many thanks for your help. Without you, I'm afraid my little life would have been ruined!" Just at this moment, the old swindler who had swallowed the spirit fruit and gotten rid of his six meridians' ill condition slowly walked up to Lin Bai and clasped his hands towards him. His face revealed an expression of gratitude, and he spoke with an uncharacteristically grateful tone.

One had to say, the spirit fruit of the Nine Suns Heaven Changing Wood was simply too magical. Before, under the chronic disease of six meridians going against one's will, the old swindler's vitality had already weakened to the point where it was impossible to increase. As he moved, he even emitted an aura that was as old as rotten wood.

Furthermore, as far as Lin Bai was concerned, the changes that the Nine Suns Heavenly Wood Spirit Fruit had brought to the old liar were not just limited to giving him a strong life force. That strong life force had completely nourished all of the dried up cells and meridians in his body. The current him was like an unpolished jade that had washed away all the dust on his body, giving off a penetrating feeling.

Lin Bai had no doubt that if the old swindler were to turn his attention to the Cheng Clan's unique ancient Chinese martial arts, he would definitely be able to get rid of the ancient Chinese martial arts mantra, "No matter how hard you work when you're twelve, you won't be able to grow into a giant tree without a foundation in the Upper Sky Realm."

"Congratulations!" Now that his long-cherished wish had been fulfilled, Lin Bai was sincerely happy for the old swindler. Without the obstruction from his six meridians and his innate talent, if he were to wholeheartedly study alchemy, his achievements would definitely be impressive.

But unfortunately, this joy belonged to someone else, not him, Lin Bai. At this moment, Lin Bai's heart was filled with an unprecedented feeling of discouragement. So what if he had achieved a heaven-defying realm, he was still unable to protect the people he cared about.

[Life truly is like going against the rules. Those who don't wish for it already make up eighty to ninety percent of us!]

After a long period of silence, Lin Bai softly sighed, his sigh filled with a sense of loss and vicissitudes.

Ever since they came into contact with Lin Bai, Cheng Wu and the old swindler had never seen such an expression on Lin Bai's face before. Upon seeing this, they couldn't help but feel puzzled and wanted to ask. But before they could say anything, the Miasma Water Beast on the side looked at them repeatedly, signalling them not to touch Lin Bai's bad luck.

When Cheng Wu and the old swindler saw this, they knew what kind of difficulty Lin Bai had encountered. Since even Lin Bai was unable to solve such a problem, they were naturally powerless and could only sigh softly.

"Brother Lin, I remember that you asked me about that spirit stone mine before. Now that you're looking at this mine, don't tell me that you think there's a spirit stone mine here as well?" Just as his gaze swept across the ground, the old liar's eyes revealed a hint of happiness. He cleared his throat and voiced his doubts, hoping to distract Lin Bai's attention and prevent him from sighing so deeply.

"Ore, spirit stone vein?" Upon hearing the old swindler's words, Lin Bai could not help but be taken aback. He asked in confusion, "Where is the ore deposit, and where does the matter regarding the spirit stone mine come from?"

Lin Bai really did not understand what the old swindler meant. Why did he suddenly start talking about the Spirit Stone mine! However, the moment the old swindler said those words, he felt as if he had grasped something in his heart, and it seemed that he would not be able to make sense of it in a short while.

The water spirit beast shook its head and looked at the old swindler's eyes, full of criticism. "You old swindler, if you want to change the topic, you should find a better reason to make such a statement. What the hell is going on?"

"Aren't you looking at the ore?" However, contrary to the expectations of the Yin Master Water Beast, upon hearing Lin Bai's words, the old swindler was shocked. He squatted down and picked up the sand around the five-colored altar. Brother Lin, you haven't seen it before? "

Mineral sand! These grains of sand were the ore from the spirit stones?! Upon hearing the old swindler's words, Lin Bai instantly understood what the thread in his heart was. After he figured it out, his heart was filled with ecstasy.

At this moment, he finally understood what the power supporting this five-colored altar was! This power, if it wasn't anything else, it was spirit stones! Moreover, other than the pure and untainted power of the Spirit Stones, there was nothing else in this world that possessed the power to support this five-colored altar as it pierced through the void!

This ore was most likely the spirit stone Yao Guangxiao had placed here. Because of the five-colored altar, all of the spiritual energy within it had been completely drained and returned to the mortal world.

The reason why Lin Bai did not notice this anomaly was that he believed that the ore was the detritus of the five-colored altar. Although he had a lot of spirit stones, he had never come into contact with them before, so he did not realize that they were ores.

So it was a spirit stone! It really was like looking for a place with broken iron shoes. It didn't take any effort to obtain it! After figuring out the knots, the dejection in Lin Bai's eyes disappeared. He tightly clenched his fingers, and the light in his eyes became even more unyielding! Little girl, just you wait. It won't be long before I go and pull you out of that deep abyss of heat and water, and let you face the calamity that you've been through!

"These ores are not simple. Although they are similar to the minerals that appeared in the Spirit Stone lode before we dug them up, they are not as exquisite. I'm afraid these Spirit Stones are not ordinary objects!" Cheng Wu Tong was much more meticulous than the old swindler. When he saw that Lin Bai was relieved after he found out that these things were mineral ores, he carefully observed them again and said in a deep voice.

"That's right. Furthermore, the color of the ore is similar to that of the altar. It's all five-colored. We didn't see it at all when we were excavating the spirit stone mine!" Hearing this, the old swindler nodded his head and said to Lin Bai, "Brother Lin, what's wrong? Don't tell me you need some ore? My door still has some, I can give them to you for free!"

Lin Bai smiled wryly as he waved his hand, thanking the old swindler for his good intentions. After the old swindler and Cheng Wu's depiction, he already understood that what he needed was not a simple ore, but a top grade spirit stone!

The reason why this ore was so exquisite was because it was extraordinary. Only after the top quality spirit stone had dissipated its spiritual energy would it be like this. And what he needed wasn't just top quality spirit stones, but also a different type of top quality spirit stones. It had to be a five-colored top quality spirit stone that could open the gate and allow him to enter!

Even for a Spirit Master like Tie Yuan, being able to take out a top grade spirit stone was a very rare thing. It was his lifelong wish! Needless to say, what he needed wasn't just ordinary top quality spirit stones, but top quality spirit stones that could match the five-colored altar. It would be hundreds of times more difficult!

It seemed that he would have to go into seclusion after he came out of the world! Other than the small mountains, there was probably no other place that possessed such a magical item. He just didn't know how much damage the small mountains would cause in this hidden world where the strong preyed on the weak, ever since Gu Taixu's death.

Little girl, just you wait. No matter what, I will definitely rush to your side and wash the coldness from your eyes!
