RUMBLE!
As they waited, they suddenly heard a rumbling sound.
Right before their eyes, the giant stones began to move.
"The giant stones really are moving."
"Just sitting here and waiting isn’t going to solve anything,"
Luo Longsheng said worriedly.
Just then, Chen Qingdi smiled and nodded. "Follow me. I already know the way."
With that, Chen Qingdi strode forward.
However, the others were confused when they saw nothing but a massive boulder directly in front of them.
But just as Chen Qingdi reached the boulder, it let out a loud RUMBLE and slid aside on its own, revealing a narrow path inside.
The others behind him were utterly amazed. They had no idea how Chen Qingdi had done it.
Still, they quickly fell in line behind Chen Qingdi and hurried forward.
Once they were all inside, another loud rumble echoed behind them, and they watched as the giant stone slowly slid shut again.
The sight left them all dumbfounded.
’Just what is going on?’
"When we want to leave... will we be trapped?"
Luo Longsheng said with a wry smile.
"Don’t worry. When the time comes, I’ll get you out," Chen Qingdi said as he continued to lead them forward.
Chen Qingdi was growing more and more interested in this place.
He hadn’t expected someone to have set up a formation of shifting monoliths here.
Perhaps some powerful master was hiding here.
Of course, it could also be a villain. ’Could the Evil God Hall be hidden here?’
The thought crossed Chen Qingdi’s mind.
After walking silently for a couple of miles, a spring appeared before them.
"This must be Wild Crane Spring, right?"
Chen Qingdi said, gazing at the small spring ahead.
"Yes, but it looks a lot smaller than it was when I was a child."
"What should I do next?"
Luo Longsheng asked.
"Next, you need to soak in the spring,"
Chen Qingdi told Luo Longsheng.
"Soak in the spring? Why?"
Luo Longsheng asked, completely bewildered.
"Just do what the Boss tells you. It’s not like he’s going to hurt you."
Gong Liangbu shot Luo Longsheng a glare.
Luo Longsheng thought about it and figured he was right, so he did as Chen Qingdi said and submerged himself in the spring.
At that moment, Chen Qingdi took out a sheet of yellow paper. He drew and wrote on it, creating a Curse-Breaking Talisman, and told Luo Longsheng to drape it over his body.
Luo Longsheng was even more puzzled.
"If I drape this paper on me, won’t the spring water just ruin it?"
Luo Longsheng said, confused.
"Don’t worry. Just do as I say."
"The curse on you is about to be broken,"
Chen Qingdi said.
Although Luo Longsheng was skeptical, he still did as Chen Qingdi said and draped the yellow talisman paper over his body.
To his surprise, not only did the yellow talisman paper remain intact, but it also began to emit a dim golden light.
"This is truly incredible."
Luo Longsheng stared in disbelief.
"This is nothing,"
Chen Qingdi said with a smile.
"This is nothing? It seems Mr. Chen has even more impressive abilities."
Luo Longsheng looked at Chen Qingdi with admiration.
Chen Qingdi just gave a faint smile.
Overall, Luo Longsheng found Chen Qingdi to be very approachable.
He was a man of great power, yet he wasn’t the least bit arrogant.
SIZZLE... A moment later, the yellow talisman paper suddenly burst into flames in the water.
"Wh-what’s happening?"
Seeing this, a shocked Luo Longsheng shot up out of the spring.
"It’s fine. This is normal. Your curse has been broken. If you don’t believe me, look at your hands. The black spots should be gone,"
Chen Qingdi said.
Luo Longsheng quickly looked down at his hands. Sure enough, the black spots had vanished.
"It’s true! This is absolutely incredible."
"The world is full of wonders. I’ve truly seen something today,"
Luo Longsheng said.
With the curse broken, Luo Longsheng felt a sense of relief wash over his entire body.
"Amazing, amazing!"
"I feel so much lighter now."
"So, can we leave now?"
Luo Longsheng asked hurriedly.
After all, his elderly father was still at home.
Besides, the Luo Family had a mountain of problems to deal with.
The Luo Family residence wasn’t safe, and he wanted to stay by his father’s side.
But Chen Qingdi shook his head, showing no intention of leaving just yet.
"We can’t leave yet,"
Chen Qingdi said after a moment.
"We can’t leave yet?"
"What do you mean?"
Luo Longsheng’s face was a mask of confusion.
Mu Xinlei and Gong Liangbu also looked toward Chen Qingdi.
"Haven’t you noticed? The giant stones around us have already enclosed the entire area."
"Although I’ve studied some of their movement trajectories and patterns, I haven’t completely deciphered them."
"We might have to stay here for a while,"
Chen Qingdi said.
At his words, they finally took a serious look around. Sure enough, in every direction for dozens of miles, all they could see was a wall of grayish-blue stone.
The massive stones were hundreds of feet tall, boxing them in on all sides. Escaping would be harder than ascending to the heavens.
"What’s going on?"
"Is someone controlling all of this?"
"If that’s true, it’s terrifying,"
Luo Longsheng said.
"No need to rush. Why not take a break?"
Chen Qingdi, however, was perfectly calm.
At that moment, Chen Qingdi walked to the edge of the spring.
"Since we’re already here, why don’t we enjoy a soak?"
"We’ve got nothing better to do, anyway."
With that, Chen Qingdi submerged himself in the spring.
Seeing Chen Qingdi get in, Gong Liangbu happily submerged himself in the water as well.
"Well, I guess I’ll join in too,"
Mu Xinlei said.
With that, Mu Xinlei also jumped into the pool.
As soon as he entered the pool, he found the spring water was quite comfortable—neither hot nor cold.
But while soaking, Chen Qingdi suddenly felt a faint wisp of Spiritual Energy slowly drifting up from the spring’s source.
This immediately made Chen Qingdi excited.
’Could there really be a Spiritual Energy Hall beneath the spring’s source?’
’If so, I have to go down there and see for myself.’
"I’ve found something. Everyone, stand up for a moment,"
Chen Qingdi said.
They had only been soaking for a short while and were just starting to get comfortable. Hearing Chen Qingdi’s command, none of them really wanted to get up.
