As Qu Jianlei traveled, he continued to release his perception, yet he still had the mind to consider other things.

He sensed Aunt Han’s unease.

Just from the fact that she voluntarily gave him the gold crystal, he could guess what this Wood Attribute A-level was worried about.

But he couldn’t explain; should he say he was attributeless, and the gold crystal would disrupt his body’s balance?

Anyway, he’ll keep going and see; what he couldn’t let go of most was that Thunder Ram Horn.

Half a day after entering the Cave Mansion, they encountered a fork in the road, with a total of three paths.

Luo Hanshuang once again took out the incense burner, prayed for a moment, and then randomly chose the middle path.

After choosing, nothing significant happened; opportunities still lined the roadside.

However, Luo Hanshuang still sensed something different, ”Opportunities seem to have decreased a bit.”

Aunt Han mildly responded, ”You should be content; before coming in, did you think there would be such gains?”

”Indeed not,” Luo Hanshuang replied with a cheerful smile, ”It far exceeded my expectations; I must thank Brother Ran greatly.”

Hearing this, Aunt Han’s mind settled a bit: the little lady’s attitude should comfort him, right?

Six hours later, they encountered another fork in the road. This time, after praying, Luo Hanshuang decided on the left path.

Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but Luo Hanshuang commented, ”I feel the gains from this choice are more valuable this time.”

To make a long story short, after two more forks, the three finally reached the end after two days.

Luo Hanshuang noticed that the closer they got to the end, the fewer opportunities there were.

”It seems the senior students who came in earlier mainly rushed through initially and only had adequate time to look for opportunities later.”

Qu Jianlei and Aunt Han both agreed with her speculation.

The endpoint was a rectangular area paved with bluestone, about twenty meters on each side.

At the edge of the area stood a wall over ten meters wide and more than three meters tall.

The wall wasn’t the main focus; in front of it was a square stone platform, half a meter tall and just over a meter wide.

In front of the platform was a circle about two meters in diameter.

The circle was level with the ground but was black in color, with vague patterns of Tai Chi fish visible on its surface.

”This is it,” Luo Hanshuang sighed with relief, ”and there’s still a whole day left!”

She circled past the circle to the stone platform, only to stop abruptly, ”Whoa, what is this?”

Qu Jianlei ignored her and squatted down, carefully examining the black Tai Chi pattern on the ground.

It seemed to be aged and somewhat weathered, yet there were faint fluctuations of unusual energy.

This energy’s form was very close to the energy contained in stalactites.

It was indeed a Secret Realm left by the ancestors of the Divine Land!

But who knows where those ancestors went; their wealth is now being divided by the Imperial people.

Qu Jianlei’s mood was a bit complicated; saying he felt heartache wasn’t quite right, as it wasn’t his own possession.

But speaking of inheritance rights, shouldn’t he have more entitlement than other Imperial people?

Forget it... he shook his head; with the Empire’s strict defense here, involving all major academies, thinking further was futile.

At this moment, he heard Aunt Han exclaim softly, ”How does this make sense?”

Qu Jianlei stood up and walked toward the stone platform, but after just two steps, he paused, a gleam flashed in his eyes.

Then he walked over calmly and quietly observed.

In his mind, Little Lake was already shouting, ”The Huarong Road, Huarong Road’s Cross Saber Stand Horse setup!”

”I know,” Qu Jianlei replied silently in his mind, ”let the two of them fiddle with it first.”

In fact, Aunt Han had already noticed his strangeness.

Though she didn’t think much of it, assuming he might also be startled, she still grew a bit wary.

She asked without showing any expression, ”Do you have any good suggestions?”

”Is this the little one’s internship task?” Qu Jianlei glanced at Luo Hanshuang.

”You two ponder it first; after rushing for two days, I need to rest a bit.”

Just as he finished speaking, Luo Hanshuang let out a long yawn and mumbled.

”I also need to sleep; otherwise, I can’t concentrate at all.”

Aunt Han became anxious hearing this, ”There’s only one day left, just grit your teeth and push through... aren’t you trying to enter the Inner Circle?”

Luo Hanshuang spread her pale hands, ”Faced with such a puzzle, I’m afraid I can’t enter the Inner Circle!”

”With such gains already, might as well rest; who knows, maybe my mind will clear after waking up?”

Seeing that Aunt Han wanted to speak, she simply said, ”Since you’re not tired, Aunt Han, why not help me think?”

Aunt Han rolled her eyes, ”You really have the nerve to say that, fine, I won’t bother with you!”

She couldn’t possibly rest; just being vigilant against Ran Bingluan made her keep her guard up.

Moreover, she knew that after these two days, Luo Hanshuang couldn’t hold on anymore, and Ran Bingluan, who had been using spiritual power for so long, indeed needed a break.

But as for herself, she hadn’t expended much energy, and could easily sustain for another three days and nights.

Nevertheless, Qu Jianlei still set up a defense array, enclosing the three of them within.

He was also on guard against Aunt Han, in case she made a move against him, as betrayal for benefit was not uncommon.

Many prominent families acted without regard to outsiders’ survival, treating morals as nothing under the drive of interests.

Some even went further to act ruthlessly if they felt you posed a threat.

So he also kept two cans of Paraquat in his backpack, just in case.

He only needed to meditate for rest, no need to enter deep sleep.

Truthfully, he was somewhat expecting that if the opponent dared to make a move against him, he could act without limits.

To recover quickly, he even took out an A-level Crystal Rejuvenation.

Fortunately, Aunt Han’s moral standard was above average; she proactively stepped out of the defense array, focusing on observing the stone platform.

Qu Jianlei rested for eight hours this time, although not fully recovered to peak state, his physical condition improved significantly.

He opened his eyes and got up, as a result, Luo Hanshuang, lying on the blanket, also woke up.

Xiao Bai Tian’s eyes were still somewhat bloodshot, clearly not fully recovered, yet she confidently claimed, ”I’m much better!”

Aunt Han glanced at her and hesitantly spoke, ”I’ve thought about it, and it seems we still need to use the method of sacrifice.”

”Sacrifice...” Luo Hanshuang frowned slightly, ”Then let’s do it. Are we using the opportunity we gained?”

”Use Energy Blocks!” Aunt Han answered without hesitation and then looked at Qu Jianlei, ”Can you help keep it confidential?”

”Of course, keeping it confidential is no problem,” Qu Jianlei replied crisply, then curiously asked, ”Energy Blocks can be sacrificed too?”

Heaven have mercy, he had no idea what sacrifice was, but he couldn’t admit to being uninformed.

”The Imperial regulations don’t allow it,” Aunt Han replied sternly, ”and using opportunity for sacrifice has better effects...”

”But this puzzle is really too difficult; let’s sacrifice some Energy Blocks first to test things out.”

Upon hearing this, Qu Jianlei nodded; the puzzle indeed wasn’t easy.

The solution to the Hua Rong Road isn’t really difficult, especially with a smart terminal, exhaustive methods can brute force it.

But the Hua Rong Road on this stone platform, the stone chess pieces were tightly connected to the stone platform, utterly immovable.

Not only were there no inscriptions on the pieces, but they didn’t even know what tricks were being played.

Qu Jianlei had reason to suspect that the inscriptions on the pieces were scraped off by the Imperial regulations to prevent the spread of godly inscriptions.

There were clear signs of weathering on the stone chess pieces, but the Imperial regulation entering this secret realm for thousands of years made weathering unsurprising.

He was pondering what the process of sacrifice should be when he saw Luo Hanshuang take out a box.

Then she opened the box and took out Energy Blocks, respectfully placing them on the Tai Chi Diagram.

A box of Energy Blocks was one hundred large pieces, quickly arranged, yet there was no response.

Luo Hanshuang froze for a moment, then took out another box, continued placing Energy Blocks.

Just after arranging, the Tai Chi Diagram rippled like water, the Energy Blocks disappeared without a trace.

”Good thing,” Aunt Han sighed in relief, ”this cost is still worthwhile.”

An Energy Block was only a hundred silver coins, two hundred Energy Blocks were only twenty thousand, the grand and prosperous Luo Family could completely afford it.

Then she turned her head to the stone platform, and exclaimed in surprise, ”There are godly inscriptions now!”

Qu Jianlei also noticed it, a character appeared on one chess piece — ”Pawn”.

Soon after, Luo Hanshuang made a new discovery, ”Ah, this stone can actually move now!”

She and Aunt Han fiddled with the stone a bit and exchanged a glance, ”Looks like we need to write the godly inscriptions on it!”

But with so many godly inscriptions, what should be written? The two frowned in distress.

”Let’s continue sacrificing,” Luo Hanshuang began taking out more Energy Blocks.

After sacrificing two more boxes of Energy Blocks, another chess piece appeared with the character — ”Pawn”!

”It’s the same character again,” Luo Hanshuang frowned slightly, ”Shouldn’t these two of the same size also have this character?”

”Don’t take risks,” Aunt Han spoke sternly, ”these two are symmetrical, what if they’re not?”

”Then let’s sacrifice two more boxes,” Luo Hanshuang unhesitantly took out two more boxes of Energy Blocks.

To her, problems solvable with money weren’t problems!

Sure enough, the third character appeared, still ”Pawn”, and those three chess pieces could all move.

”I’ll write the fourth character!” Luo Hanshuang felt there couldn’t possibly be any surprises.

”Let me do it,” Aunt Han stepped to the stone platform, mobilizing the Power of Wood Element, and began to gently carve with her finger.

She only mobilized elemental power and did not intend to leave marks; her actions were very gentle.

Yet, unexpectedly, as her fingertip brushed over, a ”Pawn” character really appeared on the stone.

Next, she tried pushing it slightly, ”Indeed, these four stones can all be moved now.”
