Chapter 332: Bai Ze’s miraculous nose, two broken weapons
“Senior Bai Ze, can you really find the Qiongqi Tomb?”
Xu Mao grew anxious seeing Bai Ze, who was on the ground, continuously investigating. They had arrived at the Potential Dragon Continent half a month ago.
Now, three days have passed since the great battle ended, yet Bai Ze still hasn’t found the Qiongqi Tomb.
Although the Heaven-Blocking Array is mysterious, it is impossible for it to indefinitely block the Beast Clan.
If the Beast Clan were to enter and cause trouble, finding the Qiongqi Tomb would become impossible.
Facing Xu Mao’s urging, Bai Ze impatiently said, “Shut up, kid! Don’t disturb me while I’m concentrating.”
“After so many years, do you really think we can just find it like that!”
“It would be good if there were any clues, but now you’re being picky.”
As he spoke, Bai Ze took out a pile of crystal-clear bones.
These bones came from the Beast Clan, the Divine Clan, the Demon Clan, and the Human Clan.
Seeing these bones, Bai Ze carefully sniffed them with his nose, as if trying to find a clue.
Seeing this, Yue Ying couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Bai Ze, these bones have been around for over hundreds of thousands of years. Could there still be any clues?”
“Of course, these bones haven’t decayed after more than three hundred thousand years, proving their owners were extremely powerful.”
“Moreover, according to my investigation, all these living beings participated in the battle to encircle Qiongqi.”
“The cooperation between humans, gods, and demons finally subdued the Beast Clan and eliminated Qiongqi.”
“Just by looking at this, one can tell how powerful the Beast Clan was at that time.”
“Given the strength of the Beast Clan, it’s highly unlikely that the human, god, and demon clans could bring back Qiongqi’s body.”
“Therefore, Qiongqi likely buried himself and his enemies in a hidden place before dying.”
“Using such a grand method, the commotion would not be small. Any living beings who witnessed the scene might still detect the lingering aura of this method.”
“Finding the method Qiongqi used, we can reverse-engineer the location where it’s hidden.”
After hearing Bai Ze’s method, everyone’s mouths twitched.
You can smell the scent from bones that have been around for over three hundred thousand years! What kind of nose do you have?
Although Bai Ze’s method was extremely unreliable, everyone had no choice but to accept it.
After all, besides this absurd method, they had no other options.
Then, just as everyone was complaining about Bai Ze’s method being too absurd, a voice came over.
“Ew, you even smell dead bones. Keep your distance from me in the future.”
Hearing this voice, everyone looked up and indeed saw Chen Changsheng returning.
Beside him was a young man.
“Wu Wu Wu!”
“Little Taoist, you’re finally back. I haven’t had snacks these past few days.”
Seeing Chen Changsheng appear, Hu Tudou hugged his leg tightly.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng took out a carefully made string of candied hawthorns and handed it over. Hu Tudou’s crying stopped abruptly.
“Here, you’ve been eating candied hawthorns for ages, it’s fitting.”
A similar string of candied hawthorns was handed to Ziping.
Seeing this, Ziping’s eyes lit up, and he happily said, “Thank you, sir.”
“The sweet scent, this should be made with osmanthus honey and osmanthus fruit. It also includes some other ingredients.”
“Why have you suddenly taken an interest in food? Give me a string.”
Bai Ze sniffed a few times, then quickly described the exact ingredients and the preparation method of the candied hawthorns, getting most of it right.
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng said speechlessly, “You’re a dog, dogs can’t eat sweets, they’ll d*e!”
“Pfft! You’re the dog, I am the divine beast Bai Ze.”
Under Bai Ze’s strong insistence, Chen Changsheng still threw a string of candied hawthorns to Bai Ze.
Seeing this, Xu Mao and Yue Ying couldn’t help but feel envious.
However, Chen Changsheng didn’t care much about them.
“Look what you’re doing. Xiaohei can eat candied hawthorns because it doesn’t care about shame.”
“Ziyan and Potato can eat them because they are young.”
“Are you saying you are young or that you don’t care about shame?”
Yue Ying and Xu Mao: “…”
That thing looks like a magical elixir, and it’s specially made by you. Who wouldn’t want it?
Ignoring their resentful gazes, Chen Changsheng pushed aside Zhi Ze and started examining the bones on the ground.
“These clues can only determine the general direction. Hand over the real thing.”
Hearing this, Zhi Ze, who was eating the candied hawthorns, threw a wooden box and said indistinctly, “Everything dug out from the tomb is here. Also, these bones have the scent of the Potential Dragon Continent’s void.”
“But I’m not sure if these things are useful.”
Upon hearing this, Yue Ying looked at Zhi Ze in shock.
“Void has a scent?”
“Of course, different things have different scents. Even the ethereal space has its own scent.”
“Every place’s space has subtle differences. Otherwise, do you think I’ve been wandering around here for nothing?”
After hearing this, Yue Ying was speechless.
This was the first time she heard that spatial concepts could have scents.
“Clatter!”
Chen Changsheng dumped everything out of the wooden box.
Sorting through the completely lifeless weapons, Chen Changsheng frowned, as he temporarily couldn’t find any leads.
Suddenly, Chen Changsheng saw two broken weapons among the discarded magic treasures.
Seeing this, Chen Changsheng smiled and said, “Zhi Ze, who are the owners of these two weapons?”
Hearing this, Zhi Ze threw away the bamboo skewer and said, “The broken long sword belongs to a sword cultivator of the Human Clan. As for the bronze tripod that’s only half left, it’s a magic treasure of the Divine Clan.”
“They were quite powerful at the time, but they died soon after the battle because Qiongqi injured them too severely.”
“Are these two weapons damaged by you, or were they originally like this?”
“Originally like this!”
Getting this answer, Chen Changsheng picked up the two broken weapons and smiled.
“In that case, there’s no problem. I have a way to find the Qiongqi Tomb.”
Hearing this, Zhi Ze asked curiously, “What, don’t tell me you plan to use these two weapons to search.”
“These two weapons are already useless, I’m sure of that.”
“You’re right, but you overlooked a problem.”
“Fighters of Qiongqi’s level wouldn’t let other cultivators interfere. Moreover, they wouldn’t fight in random places.”
“Fighters of this level would definitely battle in the void.”
“If both sides suffer heavy injuries, they will be buried in the void.”
“That’s why no one has ever found the Qiongqi Tomb. In the void, there’s no concept of direction.”
“To find something in the void, there must be a landmark.”
“I’m guessing these two weapons were broken by Qiongqi. The sharp claw marks on them prove this point.”
“Thus, the other halves of these weapons must be in the Qiongqi Tomb.”
“If the weapons in the Qiongqi Tomb haven’t completely lost their spiritual energy, we can use the resonance between the weapons to find the tomb.”
Upon hearing this, Zhi Ze frowned and said, “That’s one way, but these two halves of the weapons are already ‘dead.’”
“What if I can revive them?”
