61: Chapter 61 The Land of Inheritance, Zhu Qing's Sister is Deeply Moved

After his spirit ring lit up and he confirmed that the Red Flame Python was dead, Su Ling finally retracted his two external Spirit Bones.

Immediately afterward, Su Ling carefully searched the Red Flame Python's corpse for a while, inspecting whether this Spirit Beast had any Spirit Bone, as it was, after all, a fifty-thousand-year-old specimen.

For Spirit Beasts, the higher the age, the greater the chance of producing a Spirit Bone; upon reaching one hundred thousand years, it was a one hundred percent certainty.

Unfortunately, Su Ling did not find any Spirit Bone on this Red Flame Python.

"Brother Su, you aren't hurt, are you?" Zhu Zhuxin approached Su Ling and asked with a concerned expression.

Su Ling said, "I'm not hurt. Its flames couldn't injure me."

From head to toe, only Su Ling's clothes had suffered some damage; his body was completely unharmed.

"That's good. Brother Su, you are truly amazing, far more powerful than what Zhuqing described in her letters," Zhu Zhuxin said with a smile.

"Let's go. We'll go inside that ruin to take a look," Su Ling said.

"Mm!" Zhu Zhuxin followed closely behind Su Ling.

On the inner side of the canyon, just as Liu Erlong had said, there was a fissure less than a meter wide. Passing through this fissure would lead into the ruins.

That Red Flame Python from earlier had come out from this fissure, but before entering, Su Ling still activated his Eye of True Sight.

After observing for a while, Su Ling did not discover any other Spirit Beasts; it seemed there was only that one Red Flame Python here.

After passing through the fissure for about twenty meters, there was a cave entrance about the height of a person on the side.

Subsequently, Su Ling led Zhu Zhuxin into the cave entrance, and after walking for another sixty or seventy meters, they arrived in a large hall.

"So many Blue Soul Jade Crystals!" Zhu Zhuxin exclaimed in amazement after entering.

The entire space shimmered with a blue radiance. The walls, the floor, and even the ceiling were paved with these Blue Soul Jade Crystals. The space was quite large, at least over three hundred square meters, with a height of about ten meters.

The place where Su Ling and the others had entered appeared to have been broken open, possibly caused by an earthquake, as the cave passages they had passed through were also irregular.

How did Liu Erlong find this place back then?

"Brother Su, this place must have been left behind by a Spirit Master who studied Formations, but why use so many Blue Soul Jade Crystals just for decoration?" Zhu Zhuxin asked with a puzzled expression.

"Zhu Xin, then you should check carefully to see if anything related to Formations was left behind. I'll start collecting these crystals," Su Ling said; after all, that was the purpose of his trip.

"Okay!"

Su Ling picked up a dagger and began to extract these crystals from the walls and the floor.

If it were only an Intermediate Defensive Array, Su Ling might not have come to this place so quickly to collect the crystals.

But now that Su Ling possessed a High-Level Protection Array, it became very necessary.

The High-Level Protection Array not only had stronger defense but also more functions; it came with a certain hallucinatory effect that could conceal everything.

For example, when Su Ling was absorbing a spirit ring inside, if he activated the array, it would look like an ordinary forest from the outside, and one wouldn't be able to see the specific situation inside.

Besides that, it could also mask the scent of blood; it was significantly better than the Intermediate Defensive Array.

After Su Ling had collected crystals from one large wall section, he suddenly made a discovery. Beneath the Blue Soul Jade Crystals, there seemed to be text, as well as lines and drawings.

In front of him, after removing the Blue Soul Jade Crystals, the wall surface was smooth and clean, and the covered content was revealed.

"Zhu Xin, come over and take a look; I think I've discovered something," Su Ling said.

Su Ling didn't know much about Formations; he only knew how to use the two sets provided by the System.

Zhu Zhuxin immediately jogged over. Looking at the patterns and text on the wall, she smiled, a very happy smile.

"Brother Su, this is wonderful! This is a Legacy, definitely a Legacy related to Formations."

Zhu Zhuxin hugged Su Ling, her body trembling with excitement.

[Ding... Zhu Zhuxin's Favorability +10, obtained white treasure chest *5, yellow treasure chest *2]

Su Ling said, "Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and take down all the Blue Soul Jade Crystals."

"Brother Su, we must be careful then; don't damage the Legacy on the wall," Zhu Zhuxin said. At this moment, she also realized she was hugging Su Ling.

Zhu Zhuxin quickly let go and stood to the side.

"Phew... thankfully the lighting here isn't very good, or Brother Su would definitely make fun of my flushed face."

However, she didn't know that even with such dim lighting, Su Ling could see everything clearly.

Zhu Zhuxin's Spirit was originally the Hell Civet; there was no need to mention a cat's vision in the dark, and in this environment, Zhu Zhuxin could also see very clearly.

The two of them split up, one to the left and one to the right, to remove the crystals.

In the vast space, Su Ling and Zhu Zhuxin worked together for two days to collect all the crystals.

Su Ling's spirit tool storage already contained over one hundred thousand Blue Soul Jade Crystals.

Zhu Zhuxin's harvest was a bit less; after all, only Su Ling could fly up to remove the crystals on the ceiling. Even so, Zhu Zhuxin had obtained tens of thousands.

With so many energy crystals, Su Ling no longer had to worry about running out for his Formations.

"Brother Su, I plan to record all the Legacy here," Zhu Zhuxin said.

Looking around, there was so much content that it would take quite a bit of time.

Yet she had already promised Su Ling to leave together.

Su Ling also roughly guessed Zhu Zhuxin's thoughts and said, "Zhu Xin, to record everything here, about how long will you need?"

Zhu Zhuxin said, "There's a lot of content; I estimate it will take at least two months or so. Oh, no, give me one month and I can finish it."

"It's fine, no rush. Two months is fine. You must not make any mistakes in recording these things. I'll just wait for you; besides, I have other things to attend to," Su Ling said.

[Ding... Zhu Zhuxin's Favorability +3, white treasure chest +2]

"Thank you, Brother Su. By the way, do you have any white paper and pens on you? I have some, but it's not enough to record so much," Zhu Zhuxin said with some embarrassment.

Su Ling said, "I have some, but not much. You start recording; I'll go out for a trip and buy some back for you."

After speaking, Su Ling looked at the space and then took out the Intermediate Defensive Array.

"Zhu Xin, use this array. Ordinary Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts cannot break this defense."

After finishing, Su Ling directly set up the Intermediate Defensive Array.

Afterward, Su Ling took out some dry rations, water, and fruits that could be stored for a longer time.

All these items piled up into a small hill on the ground.

Seeing Su Ling take out so many things and even let her use the Intermediate Defensive Array, Zhu Zhuxin was naturally touched.

"Brother Su, are you giving all of this to me?" Zhu Zhuxin asked.

"Yes, who else would I give it to if not you?"

"The array will protect your safety, and you need food and drink. You have to last for one or two months. I reckon this paper will last you half a month; I will definitely return within half a month," Su Ling said.

"Brother Su, you are too good to me. I don't know how to repay you, and you even saved my life."

For a moment, Zhu Zhuxin really didn't know what to say.

[Ding... Zhu Zhuxin's Favorability +10, obtained white treasure chest *4, yellow treasure chest *2]

After adding the 10 points of favorability, Zhu Zhuxin's favorability increased to 58 points, just two points away from forming a bond.

Su Ling said, "Zhu Xin, why are you being so polite with me? You are Zhuqing's sister. If Zhuqing didn't have you, it would have been very difficult for her to survive those years. It is only right that I help you."

"Alright, hurry and prepare. See if there is anything else you need and just tell me; I'll bring it all at once."

"Paper, pens, hmm, I also need some tools..." Zhu Zhuxin listed everything she needed in one breath, but for convenience, she wrote it down on paper.

"Then I'll head out now. You must record every day, but you also need to pay attention to resting. Don't get too tired, and don't be in such a rush, okay!" Su Ling said.

"Mm, thank you, Brother Su. Please be safe on your way," Zhu Zhuxin said.

"It's fine, I will be careful," Su Ling said.

Activating the array, Su Ling walked straight out.

Having been delayed here for a few days, Su Ling was also prepared to search for Dai Mubai and the others in the Misty Forest.

Su Ling hadn't stayed long with Zhu Zhuxin. If there were no accidents, Tang San and Xiao Wu should still be in the Spirit Beast Forest.

Su Ling exited through the fissure. Outside the canyon, the Red Flame Python's corpse was reduced to nothing but white bones; its flesh had already been eaten by other Spirit Beasts.

After activating his Eye of True Sight to memorize the location, Su Ling headed straight toward the Thousand-Year Spirit Beast region.
