Chapter 462: Chapter 462: Spiritual Objects

"Let’s go, up the mountain."

Bao Lei said, holding his belongings.

Lin Xiaoyan looked at them and asked, "Are we... going up too?"

Bao Lei and Lin Feng stopped and looked at Lin Xiaoyan.

Bao Lei responded amiably, "Don’t worry, Lin Xiaoyou. This spiritual object won’t harm anyone. Since it seeks help from humans, it surely won’t harm humans."

Lin Feng immediately added, "Xiao Yan, let’s go, let’s go up together and have a look."

Lin Xiaoyan looked at Nan Xi and Xiao Bo, "Are you guys going?"

Nan Xi and Xiao Bo said, "If you go, we go."

However, there was a look of expectation in both their eyes.

Lin Xiaoyan was also a bit curious, curious about what exactly the voice they just heard was.

"Let’s go, let’s all go up together."

The armed personnel did not go up, but they surrounded the base of the mountain to prevent others from approaching.

No one was curious, and no one was puzzled.

In recent years, they had seen many similar things, so they were unfazed. But to avoid causing panic, they always signed confidentiality agreements each time.

However, there were still many videos that got out.

More and more things are being revealed; in the end, who knows what this world will become.

The three of them, Lin Xiaoyan, followed Bao Lei and Lin Feng up the mountain.

This mountain now only has some rocks exposed outside.

The plants looked half-dead.

Though it’s already spring, the plants on this mountain still seemed lifeless.

The mountain wasn’t tall, about thirty to forty meters.

When they reached halfway, that voice reappeared.

"Did you hear that?" Lin Xiaoyan asked Bao Lei and Lin Feng.

Bao Lei and Lin Feng stopped and listened carefully, but neither of them heard anything.

Lin Xiaoyan frowned slightly and softly asked, "Where are you? I’ve brought people to rescue you."

The voice changed; it was guiding Lin Xiaoyan to find it.

After listening, Lin Xiaoyan scanned around and pointed in a direction, "Let’s go this way."

Afterward, Lin Xiaoyan followed the guidance of that voice, leading the way.

The path was very difficult to walk; because it had been mined, there were many places people couldn’t walk on.

They walked for half an hour, taking many turns and twists, reaching the other side of the mountain.

Under a huge rock, Lin Xiaoyan stopped.

She pointed at the rock in front, "The voice said it’s behind here."

Bao Lei and Lin Feng came over, holding their compasses, with the pointers spinning endlessly.

Seeing this, Bao Lei put away the compass, took out a piece of talisman paper, and said to the others, "Find a place to hide while I blow this up."

Lin Xiaoyan and the others immediately found a safe place to hide.

Once hidden, Bao Lei threw the talisman paper towards the giant rock.

"Boom!"

A loud explosion sounded, and the armed personnel below glanced up before calmly refocusing.

The giant rock was blasted open, revealing a cave.

Lin Xiaoyan and the others came over, looking at the pitch-black cave in front, glancing at each other.

Bao Lei took his compass out again, and the pointer stopped.

"Let’s go in."

Bao Lei was the first to enter, followed closely by Lin Feng.

Lin Xiaoyan found that the voice had stopped, indicating they might have found the place, so it no longer transmitted.

Lin Xiaoyan followed in, with Nan Xi and Xiao Bo closely beside her.

Upon entering the cave, Lin Xiaoyan felt a cold chill hit her face.

There was a rotting smell drifting from inside the cave, faintly mixed with an acrid scent.

The further they went in, the more damp and slick the cave became, making it hard to walk.

Lin Xiaoyan and the others walked cautiously, feeling like they were going further and further down.

After walking for a few more minutes, the air ahead suddenly became somewhat fresher, and the temperature warmed up slightly.

They squeezed through a narrow spot and suddenly arrived at a spacious area.

Calling it spacious was a bit erroneous, as there wasn’t much ground to step on since water was everywhere.

Bao Lei carefully scrutinized the area around the pool in front of them.

With their flashlights, the group illuminated the area; there were no other caves, just this pool of water.

Bao Lei quickly calculated something, and after a moment, he gently said while looking at the water pool, "This is the place."

The voice echoed through the spacious cave.

Just as the group was debating whether to go underwater, the water suddenly stirred.

Lin Xiaoyan and the others immediately stepped back, cautiously watching the surface of the water.

The ripples on the water became more intense, and Lin Xiaoyan and the others speculated in their hearts that this must be a large creature!

Who knows how many years it had been cultivating here...

The water splashed for nearly three minutes, and just when everyone thought the large creature was about to surface, the water calmed down gradually.

Suddenly, the entire cave fell silent, and everyone held their breath, eyes fixed tightly on the water’s surface.

As time quietly slipped away, everyone gradually became impatient.

"Senior brother, what’s going on?"

Lin Feng softly asked.

Bao Lei looked at the water and gestured for silence with a finger.

Generally, spiritual objects that have hidden away for so long tend to fear humans instinctively, not trusting humans.

This spiritual object was probably testing them.

They waited for a long time, but the water remained still.

Lin Xiaoyan was getting tired of standing and glanced around, trying to find a place to sit and wait.

Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted something slowly moving.

Lin Xiaoyan shone her flashlight over, and a golden object shuddered once before remaining still.

Lin Xiaoyan walked over slowly, and upon getting closer, she found it was a turtle.

A very exquisite and beautiful turtle.

It was about the size of a palm, looking as if it was only two years old.

However, its shell was incredibly beautiful, golden and shiny, of an unknown species.

Nan Xi and Xiao Bo also walked over slowly, squatting down to examine it when they saw what Lin Xiaoyan was staring at.

Lin Feng noticed what was happening and, after glancing at his senior brother, quietly came over.

"Why is there a turtle here?"

Xiao Bo asked quietly.

Nan Xi replied, "Don’t say, this must be a good-luck turtle; look how pretty the shell is!"

Lin Xiaoyan nodded, "So beautiful, look, it even reflects light, just like real gold."

Lin Feng looked at the turtle, becoming more and more puzzled, "Why is this turtle so small? Could it be the child of the spiritual object?"

"You’re the damned grandson of a turtle!"

Suddenly, a crisp voice startled everyone.

Lin Xiaoyan and the others immediately stood up, warily looking around.

Bao Lei clasped his hands together respectfully and asked, "Senior, was that you speaking?"

"Hmph! Fools, I’ve come up, and you’re still staring at my bathwater?"

Bao Lei paused and looked around but didn’t see the figure of the spiritual object.

Lin Xiaoyan and the others searched around carefully, but there was nothing in sight.

"Idiots, I’m right here!!!"

The voice came from below, and Lin Xiaoyan suddenly looked down, seeing the little turtle on the ground stretching its head, glaring angrily at them.
