In the bottomless well.
Six or seven figures descended rapidly along the rope. No one spoke, only the sound of the rope tightening and the sound of broken soil falling from the well wall could be heard.
Francolin Whistle had gone down for more than a hundred feet. He was exhausted. He stuck close to a deep pit and took a few deep breaths.
He lowered his head and looked down. He still couldn't see the situation at the bottom of the well, but he could see the simple outline of the coffin.
The others were not as physically strong as him. They leaned against the wall of the well and panted heavily. In the cold weather, sweat poured down their foreheads.
"Let's rest for a while. There's no hurry."
He glanced at them and reminded them.
"Thank you for your understanding, Chief!"
The eyes of the bandits were filled with gratitude.
If they were to continue to force their way down, they might lose their minds due to the serious exhaustion of their physical strength. If they were not careful, they would fall down and definitely end up with their bones shattered.
Francolin Whistle did not respond.
He leaned against the wall of the well and looked down in a daze. The depths of his mind were filled with the agile and fierce figure from before.
Even he couldn't reach the bottom of the well in one breath, but Feng Bai had disappeared in the blink of an eye.
How did he do it?
Of course, Zhe Gushao didn't think that Feng Bai had fallen. After all, the scene of him killing the six-winged centipede at the top of the Immeasurable Palace was still deeply imprinted in his mind.
The few of them leaned against the wall and rested for about fifteen minutes.
Francolin Whistle waved his hand.
"Continue down!"
……
At the bottom of the well.
Feng Bai casually undid the rope and took a short knife from his waist to defend himself.
He turned on the miner's lamp and waited until the light came on before looking around.
It was similar to what he saw above his head. Below the pill well, everywhere he could see was filled with coffins. There were at least hundreds of them.
Other than that, there was also Weng Zang's bone jar.
The coffins looked like they had existed for a long time, and they were all of different sizes and styles.
From coffins made of golden Phoebe to the cheapest cypress coffins.
However, this place was cold and damp, and the coffins were extremely damaged. Most of them had traces of being eaten by worms.
What surprised him even more was that there were countless bones scattered on the ground, and the clothes on his body were tattered. He could only determine the basic age.
Amongst the skeletons, Feng Bai saw the lantern that Old Crooked Luo had thrown down earlier.
However, it had already been smashed into pieces, and the kerosene had also spilled all over the ground.
"Pill furnace!"
Feng Bai didn't think too much about it. After searching for a while, he looked at the bronze pill furnace in the middle.
There were many bird and beast inscriptions carved on the pill furnace. He carefully identified it and guessed that it was probably an antique from the Qin and Han Dynasties.
However, because it had been left there for too long, a layer of green copper rust had formed on the pill furnace, making it extremely mottled.
"This is it."
He carefully recalled and waited until all the images overlapped.
Feng Bai's eyes were filled with surprise.
Even though he was used to the wind and rain, his chest could not help but pound.
After taking a few deep breaths, Feng Bai carefully opened the pill furnace. As soon as he opened it, he smelled an indescribably strange smell.
It was rotten, smelly, and had a familiar poisonous smell.
"Could it be that the Six-Winged Centipede beat us to it?”
Feng Bai's expression was slightly ugly.
Logically speaking, Bottle Mountain was a treasured place for the emperors to refine immortal medicine.
Since this pill furnace was placed here so solemnly, there was definitely that thousand-year-old pill hidden inside. There should be no mistake.
However, the smell coming from the pill furnace was so strong that he felt his stomach churn and he almost vomited.
The six-winged centipede had cultivated for many years underground, so it was not impossible for it to have its eyes on the pill.
Feng Bai's heart sank when he thought of this.
However, he did not stop. Instead, he continued to open the pill furnace completely.
He held the miner's lamp and shone it in. The moment he saw what was below, his eyes lit up.
At the bottom of the pill furnace was a dragon-eye sized pill that looked like a jade bead.
Other than that, there were a few broken pills beside the pill. After burning a furnace of pills, they became one. The rest were all destroyed.
The strange smell that he had smelled earlier was also from a wasted pill.
He carefully took out the pill.
Through the light, Feng Bai saw that it was clear and transparent, and it had a jade-like texture.
The moment he held it in his hand, a voice that he had not heard for a long time suddenly sounded.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission and obtaining the pill that has been sealed for a thousand years under the Bottle Mountain.”
It was indeed it!
Hearing that clear voice, Feng Bai's heart skipped a beat, and a burning look flashed across his eyes.
After staying for so long.
He had finally obtained it.
Just as he was about to observe carefully for a moment, he suddenly heard the sound of falling, accompanied by the sound of someone talking.
Francolin Whistle!
Feng Bai raised his eyebrows and quickly sent the pill into the system space. He then closed the pill furnace and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Two minutes later.
At the entrance of the well, seven or eight figures landed on the ground, followed by the sound of lights being turned on.
"Be careful. This place is filled with Yin Qi and Death Qi. I'm afraid there's something like a dumpling.”
Francolin Whistle's voice was heard.
"Yes."
The bandits all took out their corpse entangling nets and weapons, holding their lamps and looking around cautiously.
"Little brother?"
Francolin Whistle looked around but did not see Feng Bai. This made him feel a little frustrated. He tried shouting into the darkness.
"I'm here."
Upon hearing that shout, Feng Bai stood up from a coffin painted with gold, his expression solemn.
"What did you find?"
" What's wrong?" Zhe Gushao asked in a low voice.
The surrounding bandits also gathered around and stared at their surroundings.
"Come and take a look."
Feng Bai waved his hand, signaling them not to be too nervous.
The few of them were curious. They walked up to him with a miner's lamp and looked in the direction of his finger. Only then did they realize that under the coffin, there was actually a huge corpse.
It was like a snakeskin.
Looking at it made one's scalp go numb.
Zhe Gushao frowned and probed," This was left behind by the Six-Winged Centipede?”
