Chapter 365 - 353: Immortal City (3/3)
After breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, Zhou Heng immediately swept through the eighth level of the Nine Mystic Trial Tower, breaking through with the momentum of thunder and lightning, and obtained a treasure called "Shadowless Claw" as a reward.
This Shadowless Claw could strike a distance of a hundred yards, invisible and silent, and it was incredibly sturdy, capable of lifting a weight of a million jin.
Upon receiving this treasure, Zhou Heng couldn’t help but be startled; this item seemed like a tool made for thieves! Was it suggesting he should turn to thievery?
Another two days passed before the women fully absorbed the mysterious pool, and the water became clear and transparent.
There must be some magical substance at the bottom of the pool that turned the water milky and had a healing effect on the strengthening of Divine Sense. Zhou Heng searched around but found the continent to be incredibly solid. Even now that he had advanced to the Nascent Soul Realm, he couldn’t break through the ground layer at all.
He summoned the Black Sword to try, but although the sword was sharp, his own strength was still too weak. One strike only kicked up a bit of dust, and to break through the rock layer would probably take years.
Zhou Heng naturally didn’t have that much time to waste here, so he could only give up on this idea reluctantly.
"Little Zhou, do you see something odd with Little Gold?" Mei Yixiang came over, holding the little tiger in her arms.
Zhou Heng looked and saw that the tiger cub was in a deep sleep, but there was a layer of golden light pulsing on its body. On closer inspection, he saw that it was made up of countless fine gold threads, with a new one sprouting every second, wrapping around Little Golden Tiger.
Hibernation? That’s not right, firstly, tigers don’t need to hibernate, and secondly, even if it were hibernation, it wouldn’t need to form a cocoon!
