Chapter 59: Plunder Treasure Chest
Absorbing a Spirit Bone inherently carried little risk, especially for Dugu Yan, whose Spirit Bone shared the same origin as her Spirit Soul. There was even less chance of an accident.
Seeing Dugu Yan immersed in absorbing the Spirit Bone, Dugu Bo turned his gaze back to Shi Quan. "Xiao Quan, come with me."
Following Dugu Bo out of the cave once more, Shi Quan climbed the mountain path with him. Before long, under Dugu Bo's lead, they reached the summit.
When Shi Quan saw the terrain before him, a trace of awe rose in his eyes. Nature's charm truly was unparalleled.
Who would have thought that an Inverted Cone Hollow was hidden within a hill only four or five hundred meters high? Not only did it contain a treasured place like the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, but it also buried the remains of the Two Great Dragon Kings of Water and Fire?

Dugu Bo laughed. "You can tell there's a hot spring below just from the steam?"
"It's mainly because the steam carries the smell of sulfur. Usually, that only happens near volcanic hot springs," Shi Quan explained.
"You really do know a lot, kid. But there's no volcano below, nor is it an ordinary hot spring." As he spoke, Dugu Bo walked to the edge of the cliff and seriously warned him, "Xiao Quan, the aura down there is extremely dangerous. If you feel any discomfort after entering, tell me immediately. A moment of carelessness could damage your foundation at best, or make you explode and die at worst. Understand?"
"I understand, Senior." Shi Quan nodded seriously.
"Then let's go."
