Stranger Danger

“What the hell?”

Ye Qing tried to calm his Profound Yellow Mother Qi, but not only did it fail, it was getting worse.

This was the first time he encountered such a situation. The Profound Yellow Mother Qi was the origin of all qi and the mother of all creation. Its karmic weight was immeasurable, and its power was unimaginable. Despite this, it was gentle, profound, dignified, and universally accepting. Something like this had never happened before.

At first, Ye Qing was quite worried. But over time, he realized that his Profound Yellow Mother Qi was only stirring restlessly. It did not harm his internal organs or veins at all.

In fact, he was beginning to realize that the reason the Profound Yellow Mother Qi was reacting like this was because it was… excited? It was like the excitement one felt when meeting a friend or relative after a long separation, or the joy of meeting one’s soul mate, or the inexplicable heart throb one felt when encountering a kin.

Is there something inside this treasury that’s drawing the Profound Yellow Mother Qi’s attention? Ye Qing thought to himself as he walked forward using the qi’s stirring as his guide.

The deeper he went, the more restless the Profound Yellow Mother Qi became. Right before he was about to walk past a black, dirty-looking object, the Profound Yellow Mother Qi positively churned like boiling water. It was to the point where the qi was leaking through his pores.

Ye Qing immediately stopped in his tracks and examined the object. It was about an adult male’s height, and it was covered in a thick layer of mud and rust. He could not sense any origin energy or spiritual energy from it whatsoever, nor could he tell what it was. For all intents and purposes, it was just an ordinary chunk of metal.

“What on earth is this thing?”
