Chapter 3158: Classics_1
However, they harbored not a trace of blame, but instead expressed their gratitude, "Thank you for releasing us, this is already enough!!"
As these words ended, the white glow of these souls grew fainter, vanishing into nothingness between heaven and earth…
Yuanen Yehui also closed her eyes in silent respect for a few seconds, "Shrek Academy will be protected by us, you can depart in peace!"
When she opened her eyes again, it signaled that she had sealed everything deep within her heart…
Meanwhile, Yue Zhengyu and Xu Lizhi, sensing the anomaly, also rushed over…
The former was the first to ask, "Yehui, what just happened? Why was there such a sudden burst of evil aura? It made me think an evil Soul Master had appeared!"
The latter nodded in agreement, "Exactly, exactly, it frightened Zheng Yu and me so much we hurried right over!!"
Yuanen Yehui chuckled lightly, "Nothing happened, I just happened to resolve a matter!"
Yue Zhengyu and Xu Lizhi looked at each other and could both see bewilderment in each other's eyes…
Resolved a matter??
She did not seem to want to explain any further, deflecting their doubts, "Zheng Yu, Lizhi, you don't need to worry about it, just act as if nothing happened!"
"By the way, have you found anything important over there?"
Yue Zhengyu came back to his senses and sighed, "Eh, at first I thought I would find something important, but it turned out to be just a few soul bones and some worn-out books, nothing noteworthy!"
Xu Lizhi pondered for a moment before replying, "My findings are similar to Zheng Yu's. However, I did find a lot of strange items, which I've already collected. I plan to check them after we return to the Academy!"
Yuanen Yehui's face showed a hint of disappointment, "It seems that we haven't found anything important in these areas; we must pin our hopes on the others now."
Having searched for so long without a clue, it seemed it would not be so easy to find something connected to the Divine Realm!
Yue Zhengyu shrugged his shoulders, "So, what do we do now? Continue to dig deeper underground from where we left off??"
Xu Lizhi appeared somewhat hesitant, "Zheng Yu, I think it's better not to. The deeper parts of this area are filled with the remains of our fallen comrades!"
"It's best not to disturb them too much and let them rest here in peace!!"
Yuanen Yehui cast an approving glance, "Lizhi is right. These comrades have already sacrificed their lives for Shrek Academy. Let their bodies rest eternally with the Academy!"
Yue Zhengyu showed understanding, "Alright, if both of you think that's best, then I have no objections!"
After a pause, he continued, "Since Wulin and the others are still searching, let's not waste time and take the opportunity to check the items we've collected."
After all, under the perception of spiritual power, there were no fluctuations of Divine Power beneath the earth, so continuing to dig was pointless!
This suggestion immediately received approval from Yuanen Yehui and Xu Lizhi. They each took out the items stored inside their soul tools and began to concentrate on inspecting them…
...…
Xie Xie looked at the several-meter-long chest before him, constructed of sturdy material, and said in surprise, "Did we actually dig up a chest? Could there be something good inside?"
With this thought, a trace of curiosity surfaced in his heart…
Without delay, he unleashed his Light and Dark Dragon Dagger and slashed at its shell…
The sharp blade cut through it very smoothly, facing no resistance…
He then rubbed his hands together, exceedingly excited, "Alright, let's see what exactly is inside??"
Upon opening the chest, his eyes were met with nothing but a pile of the most unadorned books imaginable…
"Huh? I put so much effort into finding this box, and it's just filled with books??"
He forcefully suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and casually picked up a book to flip through...
Upon seeing the text written inside, his expression changed dramatically, "This, this is..."
He composed himself, and without attracting any attention, picked it up and jogged towards where Tang Wulin was...
Soon, he found him!
"Wulin, how's the situation over here?"
Upon hearing Xie Xie's voice from behind, Tang Wulin also stopped his actions and turned his gaze towards him...
"I haven't found anything useful yet, what's up? Xie Xie, you look a bit pale!"
"And, why are you holding a box??"
Xie Xie set the heavy box down and spoke earnestly, "Wulin, this is a box I found earlier; it contains a bunch of books. As for the content..."
He leaned over to Tang Wulin's ear and whispered a few words...
After listening, Tang Wulin exclaimed in astonishment, "Xie Xie? Are you sure you're not joking?"
Xie Xie's head shook like a rattle drum, "Absolutely certain, I had no idea these books would contain such things!"
"How about it? Should we take them back to the Academy??"
Tang Wulin said with conviction, "Of course, we should take them back to the Academy. Since these things have been preserved until now, it's a tremendous boon for Shrek Academy!"
"After all, no one wants to cultivate in an academy without a glorious history!"
Xie Xie expressed understanding, "I get it. But when I arrived, it seemed like Yue Zhengyu and the others found nothing. They've decided not to continue searching and instead are taking the opportunity to inspect what they've collected!"
Tang Wulin's eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Found nothing? It seems like this is the only place where Divine Power fluctuations have appeared."
It looked like this was the place unable to yield any items that could connect to the Divine Realm; the mission was likely to end in failure!
Xie Xie was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Divine Power fluctuations? Wulin, what do you mean by that?"
Tang Wulin just responded with a smile, "Xie Xie, if you carefully sense the spiritual power here, you'll understand!"
Xie Xie didn't waste words and followed his instructions...
Suddenly, he realized something and said in shock, "Here, there's such a strong Divine Power aura; why didn't we sense it before?"
Tang Wulin pointed at the mark on his forehead, "It's simple, because of this!"
Having the Sea God's Mark on his forehead made him extremely sensitive to Divine Power!!
Xie Xie also realized the gist of it and said with a wry smile, "This... so it's like that. I didn't expect the Sea God's Mark on your forehead to have this function, it's really unexpected!"
"The responsibility of finding the item that connects to the Divine Realm, I'll leave it to you!!"
Tang Wulin didn't refuse and said in a deep voice, "Mm, go and join the others first. If I find it, I'll come over immediately!"
