Clack, clack, clack, clack~~~
Very soon, however, Qin Fang realized that this seemingly old key was indeed a crucial item. After poking around in that crevice for quite some time, Liu Xianjun appeared to have found the knack, and only then did he slowly start to turn it...
Following that, the stone wall emitted such a sound, and then a crack slowly appeared on what was originally a seamless stone wall.
"There truly is a stone door here..."
Seeing the stone wall reveal such a stone door, a bright smile appeared on Liu Xianjun's face, as if he had finally gained something.
The two experts beside him only exchanged a smile between themselves; what kind of eye contact occurred between them, only they themselves knew.
Qin Fang, observing in the dark, although these three were quite skilled, they didn't detect his presence. So once these three stepped into the stone door one after another, Qin Fang promptly followed them in silently.
Behind the stone door was a very rugged passage, stretching further into the depths. On such a night, it appeared even more sinister and terrifying.
The passage was very long, and the stone walls only had spaced-out ever-lasting lamps, which seemed to have been lit for a long, long time. Now, they had grown quite dim, with some of the ever-lasting lamps already extinguished.
However, this didn't hinder Liu Xianjun and his group; it was as if they anticipated this and had readily brought along illumination tools, which made things much brighter.
Following behind, Qin Fang also enjoyed some of the light, although such a dim environment didn't really affect him much...
The passage was very long, seemingly endless, and the path was quite challenging to navigate. Occasionally, they climbed tens of meters upwards, then suddenly descended hundreds of meters, only to possibly ascend again...
In short, they walked up and down for a really long time, and Liu Xianjun and the others began to grow impatient, even wondering if they were lost inside.
Although from start to finish there seemed to be only this one path, having walked so long and far without reaching the destination would make anyone impatient.
Even Qin Fang himself couldn't help but entertain such thoughts.
"Hmm..."
However, just as Qin Fang was feeling a bit impatient, he suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a slight change in the surroundings, as if the temperature had dropped a bit.
Jeju Island is a place on an island, and although positioned somewhat northerly, the temperature is indeed quite suitable. Even on a night like this, with the gentle ocean breeze blowing, the temperature was still quite comfortable.
Inside the passage, due to poor ventilation, the temperature had risen slightly, but this noticeable drop in temperature was too significant to ignore.
"The temperature has dropped!"
Not only did Qin Fang notice it, but Liu Xianjun in front couldn't help but exclaim; such a noticeable drop in temperature was indeed obvious, impossible to miss.
"We shouldn't be far from the Cold Abyss now..."
Noticing the obvious temperature drop in the passage, Liu Xianjun couldn't help but mutter to himself, while Qin Fang's face also showed a slight smile.
The sudden drop in temperature, to such an extent, naturally indicated a significant change in the external environment, and within such a cave, the only possibility was nearing that Cold Abyss.
The reason the Cold Abyss was so icy was because there was a piece of Thousand-Year Cold Jade deep within it.
The Thousand-Year Cold Jade, incredibly rare, lay submerged under the pool in that spot for countless years. Its bone-piercing cold turned the entire pool into a Cold Abyss.
The Yunluo Tea Tree grew on the edge of the Cold Abyss, nourished by the Cold Pond Water, imbued with some Cold Jade Ice Crystal, and thus became an extremely rare and famous tea.
Qin Fang had no interest in the Yunluo Tea Tree; he came for the Thousand-Year Cold Jade.
This Cold Jade was inherently bone-chilling; if a person sat on it, they might even freeze to death. Only an Inner Sect expert could use their power to resist this cold, allowing them to persist.
However, through this kind of resistance, followed by using their power to adjust their breathing, they could immediately reap considerable benefits, definitely accelerating their cultivation immensely.
Such a divine object left in such a Cold Abyss merely to energize a few tea trees was truly a waste of heavenly resources.
Especially since these tea trees were protected so rigorously, as one can infer from the concealed state of this passage...
Qin Fang couldn't care less about the Ryu Family's issues.
Whether Liu Xianjun uprooted the Yunluo Tea Trees or the Ryu family's people stopped him, Qin Fang wouldn't worry about it.
All he wanted was to secretly take away the Thousand-Year Cold Ice from under the Cold Abyss, leaving the rest to the Ryu Family to handle themselves.
If they wanted to fight or kill amongst themselves, Qin Fang wouldn't interfere. He had already helped the Ryu Family a great deal, almost saving them from the brink of death and even strengthening them a bit.
