177: Three Qilin Jade Pendants, open the land of opportunity

Even if that’s true, we aren’t members of the Qilin Battle Team, so we can’t get those Martial Skills and Cultivation Techniques,” someone sighed in resignation.

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over everyone’s heads.

Especially the Qi and Blood Martial Artists; their faces turned ashen.

With their strength, it was impossible for them to successfully join the Qilin Battle Team.

This meant that the Opportunity to mend their Foundation was out of their reach.

“Since we now know this situation, I will definitely try my best to join the Qilin Battle Team,” Wu Lei said after looking around.

“No matter what, we should try first. As for whether we can join the Qilin Battle Team, at least we will have tried. If we don’t try, then there’s no Opportunity at all.”

Hearing this, the Prodigies from the capital’s prominent families were instantly filled with Battle Intent.

Just as Wu Lei said, at least they should try first.

However, there was still a group of people who remained dejected: the Qi and Blood Martial Artists.

Because they knew that no matter how hard they tried, it would be impossible for them to join the Qilin Battle Team.

Of course.

Wu Lei and the others also noticed this, but they didn’t say much.

They had taken the wrong path in the past, choosing a shortcut for temporary improvement, and now they naturally had to bear the cost of taking that shortcut.

“Southeast direction?”

After an unknown period of walking, Yu Xiu suddenly stopped. Through the reaction of his kirin jade pendant, he sensed an Opportunity related to the Divine Beast Qilin in the southeast direction.

So he turned back and said, “We have now entered the Qilin Relic. You can each go find your own Opportunities. Staying with us will not benefit you.”

As soon as he said this...

The students of Huaxia University and these Prodigies from the capital’s prominent families also began to ponder.

Indeed.

Yu Xiu and the others were powerful. Even if there were Opportunities, they certainly wouldn’t be for them.

“Cultivation God, we’ll be leaving now.”

“Cultivation God, we’ll see you deeper in the Relic. We will definitely reach the Qilin Divine Hall.”

The students from Huaxia University bid farewell to Yu Xiu and went in different directions.

As for the Prodigies from the capital’s prominent families, someone stepped forward and said, “Yu Xiu, we hope the Battle Team assessment can start here.”

Yu Xiu asked, “Give me a reason.”

“Because of the miraculous energy, we also want to improve the quality of our Qi and Blood Power.”

Yu Xiu chuckled upon hearing this. “You are quite clever.”

“Since you request it, I can agree, but conducting the assessment here will be much more difficult than outside.”

“Perhaps not a single one of you present will pass the assessment.”

“Have you thought this through?”

Wu Lei and the others nodded heavily. “We have thought it through.”

Yu Xiu nodded and said, “In that case, I will agree to your request.”

“The assessment will begin later at the Qilin Divine Hall. Everything will be based on strength, provided you can successfully reach the Qilin Divine Hall.”

“Although there are no Vicious Beasts in the Qilin Relic, there are many strange existences. Many people have lost their lives here in previous years. I wish you good luck!”

Upon receiving Yu Xiu’s affirmative answer...

These Prodigies from the capital’s prominent families also showed determined expressions.

Then they dispersed.

All of a sudden...

Only the Qilin Battle Team members remained at the scene.

“Boss, did you find something?” Chu Tianjiao asked with a smile.

“Only you are smart?”

Yu Xiu snorted, then ordered, “Proceed quickly to the southeast.”

This action...

Already confirmed Chu Tianjiao’s guess.

The members of the Qilin Battle Team were not fools, so they naturally guessed that their boss had made a discovery.

After all, their boss had several kirin jade pendants on him.

About half an hour later...

Yu Xiu and the others arrived in front of a tombstone. The tombstone was very large, over ten meters high, but there was no grave behind it, just a bare tombstone standing there.

“Boss, is this it?”

Chu Tianjiao looked at the tombstone in front of him, circling it, but found nothing.

Yu Xiu was also puzzled.

However, the five kirin jade pendants in his storage device were emitting a strong light at this moment.

This showed...

It was indeed this tombstone.

“You all look around again.”

As Yu Xiu’s voice fell, he took out the five kirin jade pendants from his storage device.

And in that instant...

The light from three of the kirin jade pendants suddenly shone on the very top of the tombstone.

Seeing this situation...

Yu Xiu immediately shouted, “Everyone come back, no need to search anymore.”

All the Qilin Battle Team members heard this and returned to Yu Xiu’s front.

Seeing this scene, their faces were all filled with anticipation.

Just like that...

The three beams of light lasted for thirty breaths.

Then, this ten-meter-high tomb suddenly made a sound.

“The tombstone is moving!”

Someone exclaimed.

Yu Xiu watched as the ten-meter tombstone slowly descended, seemingly sinking into the ground.

Soon, the tomb was completely submerged underground.

A staircase appeared on the ground, leading directly underground.

“Follow me!”

Yu Xiu glanced at the five kirin jade pendants, whose light was growing stronger, and then, after a call, he led the way down the stairs.

Actually, Yu Xiu was quite curious.

This was the habitat of the Divine Beast Qilin, so why would there be such a staircase?

Logically speaking, Qilin are very large, as evidenced by the height of the tombstone in front of them.

But after the three kirin jade pendants shone, such a small staircase appeared on the ground, which was indeed very strange.

However, curiosity aside...

The light from the five kirin jade pendants had already indicated that there was an Opportunity related to the Divine Beast Qilin here, and even if there was danger, he would not let it pass.

Crack, crack, crack!

When everyone entered the ground, a sound came from behind again. It turned out that the tombstone had risen once more.

All of a sudden...

The surroundings instantly plunged into darkness.

“Open your communicators to illuminate.”

Yu Xiu ordered, and all the Qilin Battle Team members immediately took out their communicators to light up the area.

Due to the large number of people...

The passage lit up, almost like daylight.

“Continue forward!”

Yu Xiu waved his hand and continued to descend.

After walking down about a thousand steps, they finally reached the ground.

“These are Qilin patterns.”

At this moment, they stood in a spacious hall. There was a very large Qilin pattern on the ground, and on the surrounding walls and pillars, there were also Qilin patterns of different sizes.

Everyone looked around and found that this was just a large hall, and besides the Qilin patterns everywhere, there was nothing else.

“Boss, there’s a door here.”

At this moment, a Qilin Battle Team member shouted, and Yu Xiu also walked over.

In front of them was a stone door over ten meters high, with Qilin patterns on it.

“Boss, how do we open this door?”

Everyone looked at Yu Xiu.

Yu Xiu looked it over and then found a groove on the body of the Qilin pattern.

Upon closer inspection, it was exactly the same as the pattern on the kirin jade pendant.

Yu Xiu glanced at the five kirin jade pendants joined together in his hand.

Then he reached out and took off two pieces.

Next, he flew into the air.

To the middle of the stone door.

He placed the three joined kirin jade pendants in his hand into the groove.

At the same time...

The stone door slowly opened.

Seeing this scene...

Yu Xiu also reacted.

There were three beams of light from the kirin jade pendants at the tombstone earlier, and here again were three kirin jade pendants.

From this, it was clear that this Opportunity location required three kirin jade pendants to open.
