"The more ordinary a place is, the easier it is to hide. If it weren't for my allowing you to enter, with your skills, you wouldn't have made it to my resting place. As for those top-tier individuals, they prefer to go to the so-called forbidden and desolate lands. If I truly chose a desolate place, the heir of my clan wouldn't be able to enter. In contrast, this place allows for the continuation of my clan's Bloodline while avoiding the danger of incomplete corpses."
"Senior, your wisdom is admirable," Junior replied.
"Let me ask you, what is your relationship with this Little Guy?" After answering Mo Wen's question, the Qilin turned to inquire.
"We share a common plight..." Mo Wen recounted in detail how he met Xiao Hei.
"Very well, seeing that you have some merit, I will grant you an opportunity. There is something behind this Cave; go and retrieve it. It will be beneficial to you. However, do not disturb anything within this Cave, or else the fusion of this Little Guy could encounter serious problems."
"Thank you for your generous gift, Senior." Mo Wen bowed deeply. Throughout their interaction, he had not seen what the Qilin's remnant soul looked like, but he chose to trust that it would not harm Xiao Hei. His understanding of Divine Beasts and their earlier conversation had alleviated most of his doubts. Moreover, there was no way to resist; the Qilin could easily see through his secrets. If it truly intended harm towards Xiao Hei, he would be powerless to stop it.
Mo Wen did not rush to retrieve what the Qilin mentioned but instead turned back to seal the entrance they had come through. He and Xiao Hei would be staying here for a long time; if they left the entrance open, it would surely disturb Xiao Hei's fusion if anyone or any Demon Beast stumbled upon it.
"Go ahead." The entrance that had exploded open had already returned to its original state.
"Thank you, Senior." After bidding farewell to the Qilin, he walked along the lakeshore and circled around until he found a stone cave. This should lead to where the Qilin mentioned the item was located. Looking back at Xiao Hei in the center of the lake, it was glowing brightly and flames were beginning to erupt from its body. Rather than crying out in pain as Mo Wen had imagined, Xiao Hei seemed to be enjoying itself with soft hums. Seeing this scene eased Mo Wen's worries significantly as he turned and entered the stone cave.
Passing through the cave, he emerged into a small garden—this must be the back garden of Qilin Cave. The garden was not large, about a hundred feet in circumference. Unlike the Lava Lake in the main hall, there were no such features here. Above the garden was a cave opening through which light streamed in. For Mo Wen, who had lost track of time underground, this light felt incredibly welcoming. The garden was filled with strange rocks; there were no piles of treasure as he had imagined. He had thought that a Divine Beast would possess countless treasures that could cause worldwide commotion if even one were revealed.
In addition to the strange rocks, there was only a large Stone Jar in the center of the garden, standing about two meters tall and two meters wide. Smoke swirled around its opening. Mo Wen did not know what lay within the Stone Jar, but he was certain that what the Qilin referred to as an opportunity was contained within it. Curious about what might be inside, he decided to investigate further. Climbing onto a nearby rock beside the Stone Jar, Mo Wen finally got a clear view of what was inside.
Inside the Stone Jar was half molten lava and half icy water emitting white smoke. The alternating heat and cold formed an arc that evenly divided the world within the jar into two halves. In the lava grew a pure white lotus; its Lotus Seed Pod was flawless and resembled jade or ice.
