'It really is an isolated case...'
The small boat sped several miles across the lake. When Chu Mu stopped to perceive his surroundings again, the Spiritual Qi had returned to its usual gentle state, confirming his thoughts.
'Was it because of a fight between Cultivators, or for some other reason?'
Chu Mu pondered for a moment before pushing the thought aside. He scanned his surroundings, and after confirming no one else was present, he reached into his robes. Two Jade Scrolls were now in his hands.
Through his Divine Soul Perception, he observed that the two Jade Scrolls showed no abnormalities. Unlike Spirit Stones, which overflowed with Spiritual Qi and flickered with light, these seemed like nothing more than ordinary Jade Slabs from the mortal world.
When he focused his Divine Soul Perception, however, he could faintly discern flickering patterns on the Jade Slabs. But whenever Chu Mu tried to get a clearer look, the patterns would vanish. This happened again and again.
