The tomb that was supposedly the doorway to an underground passage was relatively far from the rest of the other tombs. Thus, even if there were other cultivators who would eventually find the tomb, Qai and Ji Wuheng would be way ahead.

"Let's go."

Qai and Ji Wuheng had to enter quick. They understood that time was of the essence.

And even if they had no idea what could possibly happen if the thick mist dissipated before they could even get out, they still braved the underground passage without second thoughts.

Qai quickly activated his 'Hawkeye' skill right after they got in and thoroughly scanned the path forward.

The passage was relatively small as it could only fit three persons at once but it did not seem to have any dangers. In fact Qai could see that there were plenty of high grade rare herbs along the path without any sign of demonic beasts guarding them.

"Hmmm," Qai mumbled. "There doesn't seem to be any trouble ahead."

Ji Wuheng simply nodded. Even if he didn't have a unique eye skill like Qai, he could slightly guess the same by his spiritual senses.

Few minutes later, rare herbs and plants started to randomly appear behind the thick mist. The two thus quickly grabbed every rare herb and plant they could see—and as part of the deal, they evenly split them.

Then after some time, they came into a relatively open area in the passage. And although there was a thick mist, the two could clearly see that the space is filled with green grass glowing like a glass.

"An entire bed of 'Blood Crystal Grass'," Ji Wuheng eclaimed in excitement.

"Eh!?"

Seeing that Qai did not what it was, the young sect genius briefly explained the value of the grass.

A single stalk of the Blood Crystal Grass, when refined into a pill, could help any cultivator in the Heaven stages of the Sage realm form his core in the lower dantian and grant him almost eighty percent chance of success.

That was why Ji Wuheng himself could not hide his excitement. Being in the initial Heaven stage, he would definitely be in need of a lot of the Blood Crystal Grass.

Qai thought for a moment and figured out that in his Shu family, his father Shu Wei and Dong Fei who were at the peak Sky stage as well as Lady Liu Hua, the only Heaven stage Sage in the family, would progress a lot with such precious grass.

And since there was an entire bed of it, not only would Qai and Ji Wuheng have a guarantee that they would reach half-step Emperor realm, but that even Ji Wuheng's sect and Qai's entire family would greatly benefit from it.

"Our sect master will surely favor me with this!" The youth said in excitement.

In his mind, Ji Wuheng could just take a little over enough of what he personally needed and gift the rest to his Scarlet Feather Sect.


Qai on the other hand paused for a moment before he dared to pick his share. He wanted to get the good side of Ji Wuheng and thought things through so as to avoid becoming a victim of the young sect genius' scheme.

"Let me just get forty percent of it," Qai suddenly said.

Ji Wuheng was surprised.

Qai estimated that even just a quarter of the bed would be too much for the entire Shu family. Besides, under Xiao Ning's care in their Herb Garden, 'The Hunter's Plateau' could even mass produce the pill and sell them in their shop.

Ji Wuheng looked deeply at Qai and tried to analyze what could Qai possibly be up to. But since he believed he was much stronger than the latter, he shamelessly accepted the offer.

"Okay," the young sect genius replied. "We should hurry then before the others see us."

He was of course referring to group of cultivators possibly in their trail.

***************

Meanwhile, back in 'The Hunter's Plateau,' old Liu Hei was in festive mood.

The wild turtle he had in possession had apparently awakened its rare elemental affinity and finally became a true demonic Dawn Turtle.

"Ha ha ha."

The old Protector's laughter could be heard all over the entire plateau.

"Void element!" He exclaimed. "You truly are destined to be with me."

Liu Hei had long admired Qai's 'Beast Taming' and he was intent on learning the skill himself.

And although he didn't have much confidence if he could break through to Sky stage of the Emperor realm in order to learn new skill since it would mean two more levels, he was nonetheless willing to wait since he got thousands of years more to live.

One should know that Liu Hei's Dawn Turtle took the natural route of evolution. And that explained why it took some time before it became a demonic beast. And like ordinary evolution, the Dawn Turtle was in the initial Earth stage of the Expert realm.

On the other hand, Qai's Dawn Turtle had to be tamed while in its wild state in order to be 'domesticated' so its evolution was way faster. But as a result, it would not be able to awaken any elemental affinity. And currently, within Qai's 'Chui Shi,' his domesticated Dawn Turtle was slowly catching up to his own cultivation level and strength.

Since old Liu Hei did not have 'Beast Taming' skill, he just placed the Dawn Turtle in room with a cage barrier in his manor. And since it was still in the early stage of the Expert realm, it would not pose any threat even if untamed.

'Maybe I should get my own 'Chui Shi',' Liu Hei thought with a grin.
