Wudong: I, inward cultivation, made Lin Dong cry

Inside the stone hall!

The sprinting figure only came to a halt after a dozen or so breaths.

Before them was a spacious stone chamber, filled with astonishing energy fluctuations. A rich medicinal fragrance constantly emanated, clearly indicating this was a storehouse for spiritual herbs.

Lin Yan surveyed the spacious storehouse, his gaze finally settling on the very center.

There stood a withered yellow sapling, its branches resembling naturally formed, mysterious runes, faintly possessing the magic to communicate with the power of heaven and earth.

"Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree!"

Gazing at this rune-like ancient tree, Lin Yan's eyes lit up at that moment.

The rich medicinal fragrance assaulted his face, and the astonishing energy fluctuations left Mo Ling, who was beside him, dumbfounded.

Lin Dong's breathing became rapid when he saw the ancient tree, but he didn't make any move.

Mu Qianqian and Qing Tan beside them also curiously looked at the ancient tree. They could feel the peculiarity of this ancient tree, and their gazes simultaneously turned towards Lin Yan.

At this moment, Lin Yan also established a task in his mind.

【Task: Obtain the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree. Reward: A bag of tree rune symbols.】

Just as Lin Yan was about to step forward, Lin Dong, instructed by Little Marten, reminded him, "The Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree is no ordinary object. It already possesses some intelligence, and its branches are filled with a potent poison, known as Heavenly Rune Poison. Even Nirvana Realm experts would find it extremely troublesome if they were contaminated."

Hearing this, Lin Yan nodded and slowly stepped forward. He arrived in front of the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree, gazing at the runes condensed from tree patterns so close at hand, and smiled slightly.

The Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree seemed to sense something as well. It immediately shot out some branches containing Heavenly Rune Poison, fiercely lashing towards him.

"咻!"

However, Lin Yan simply ignored the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree's attack. He activated his Nirvana Golden Body, curved his hand into a claw, then suddenly reached out, grabbing fiercely onto the tree rune symbol. Then, with a heavy tug, the glowing rune was pulled out of the tree trunk.

This was the core of the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree. The strange energy it exuded was all condensed on this rune. As long as it was taken away, the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree could be completely obtained.

With the loss of the rune, the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree instantly withered, and the attacking branches quickly dried up, snapping and falling to the ground with a 'pa' sound.

The moment Lin Yan obtained the tree rune symbol, a notification of task completion appeared in his mind.

【Task: Obtain the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree. Reward: A bag of tree rune symbols. Completed, claim reward?】

However, he didn't claim it immediately, but instead established a new task in his mind.

【Task: Gift the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree to Lin Dong. Reward: Heavenly Rune Immortal Tree.】

As expected, as long as it was related to his little brother, he could basically establish a task.

Moreover, he could obtain something even better.

Lin Dong looked at Lin Yan obtaining the tree rune symbol of the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree, his eyes filled with longing, but he didn't ask for it.

Although he brought Lin Yan here, now that the item had been obtained by Lin Yan, he forcibly suppressed the urge in his heart.

Just as Lin Dong was about to turn his head to look elsewhere, Lin Yan walked over and said, "Lin Dong, little brother, you're about to break through to become a Heavenly Rune Master soon. With the help of this Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree, you should be able to directly make the breakthrough."

Hearing this, a smile immediately bloomed on Lin Dong's face, and he looked at Lin Yan gratefully. Without any pretense, he accepted it.

The others basically had no objections upon hearing Lin Yan's words.

Lin Yan's heart was bursting with joy at the moment he gave away the rune.

【Task: Gift the Heavenly Rune Spiritual Tree to Lin Dong. Reward: Heavenly Rune Immortal Tree. Completed, claim reward?】

In front of everyone, Lin Yan didn't claim the reward immediately.

He planned to claim these rewards when he was alone.

The group simply searched the entire room, obtaining some spiritual herbs.

Then, they left the stone chamber and walked along the corridor to other places.

The group shuttled through the maze-like complex stone hall, and they did have some gains along the way. In some of the stone chambers, there were many Nirvana Pills.

Lin Yan had everyone work together to collect them. In these corridors, the figures of the group quickly shuttled through, each with a thick smile on their faces, obviously having a good harvest.

Finally, they gathered together and calculated that they had obtained a total of hundreds of thousands of Nirvana Pills, some high-grade spiritual herbs, and spiritual treasures.

After collecting everything, the group turned through several intersecting corridors and discovered that the corridor in front of them had completely disappeared, replaced by an extremely large main hall.

Looking at the main hall in front of him, a smile appeared on Lin Yan's face. The most important thing in this Thunder Rock Valley was not what they had encountered before, but the Ancient Secret Key, which was what attracted Lin Yan.

Mu Qianqian and Qing Tan curiously observed the main hall in front of them.

Lin Dong and Mo Ling's eyes were somewhat fiery.

The most fiery was naturally Mo Ling, but he still suppressed the fire in his heart and then looked at Lin Yan.

The most⊥new⊥small⊥say⊥in⊥six⊥9⊥⊥book⊥⊥bar⊥⊥first⊥release!

"Let's go!"

Lin Yan didn't hesitate, waving his hand and leading everyone directly inside.

This main hall was much larger than the previous stone halls, looking like a plaza.

Lin Yan looked around and finally focused his gaze on the deepest part of the main hall.

There, a ball of light was suspended. Within that ball of light, faintly, there seemed to be a uniquely shaped, key-like object, emitting a strange light.

Ancient Secret Key!

Lin Dong's breathing even became rapid.

Looking at Lin Dong's appearance, Lin Yan smiled slightly. He knew that this was not the real Ancient Secret Key, but the mechanism to open the main hall.

The Dragon Ape and Little Thunder and the Three Little Tigers and other demon beasts widened their beast eyes, curiously looking around. As Nirvana Realm experts, their intelligence was now extremely high.

However, their gazes did not look at the light sphere, but at the lifelike stone statues on the surrounding walls of the main hall, feeling that something was wrong, but not knowing what.

Mo Ling said with doubt at this time: "Is this the Ancient Secret Key?"

"It should be." After Lin Dong looked around, his gaze still stayed on the light sphere.

Lin Yan said with a smile at this time: "That light sphere is not the real Ancient Secret Key, it is just the mechanism to activate these surrounding statues, the real Ancient Secret Key is here!"

Saying that, his figure quickly rushed towards the hall wall in the center of the main hall, where a stone statue was embedded. This stone statue was somewhat different from the other stone statues, because it was the only stone statue that overlooked the hall from the front.

The Nirvana Golden Body exploded out, directly punching the stone statue.

"嘭!"

With a loud noise, the stone statue burst apart. At the moment when the gravel exploded out, a ball of light burst out from the stone statue.

"This is the real Ancient Secret Key!"
