"Wait here for me. I'll be right back!"
Xu Changqing called out to the four people present, then darted silently toward the waterfall in a few flashes.
Arriving beneath the waterfall, he sensed the area for a moment. His eyes lit up as he wrapped himself in Soul Power, leaped high into the air, aimed for a dense stream of water, and plunged straight in.
Behind the waterfall lay another world.
It was a small cave. Water dripped from the damp rock walls with a steady drip-drip sound, and the light was slightly dim. At the center of the cave stood a Blue Silver Grass as tall as a calf, its branches and leaves streaked with golden threads. No—it should have been called the Blue Silver Emperor. Its long, slender leaves swayed gently.
Beside it floated a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone glowing red, quietly suspended in the air.
Xu Changqing gave it a glance, then walked over and stored the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone in the System space. This soul bone was of little use to him. After all, every bone in his body was already a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone—and the kind that could be upgraded!
Back when he was still at Notting Academy, he had already completed his 100,000-Year Soul Bone Set. From then on, the soul bone fragment rewards he received had changed into something else.
Soul Bone Age Enhancement Bead: Every ten beads can upgrade one Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone on the body. After upgrading, that soul bone's age will increase by 100,000 years.
Xu Changqing had currently stockpiled more than fifty Soul Bone Age Enhancement Beads. He only needed a dozen or so more to upgrade all the soul bones in his body at once. Don't ask why he did not upgrade them one at a time.
