Qin Tian stopped swimming when he arrived in front of that tunnel. He was waiting for Yuan Ji and the other two.

He then spoke to them when they finally arrived in front of him

"You three wait here, I'll go inside. Don't leave until I get out. And don't let anyone come near." He says.

After saying that, he immediately swam into the tunnel.

Boom....

His body then erupted with a gray spiritual aura.

He was still holding back his aura, but the slight aura emitted from his body was enough to help him move with great ease.

Shua...

He swam pretty fast. The current in front of the tunnel couldn't stop him.

The water in the tunnel was actually very dark, but he could still see quite clearly.

The tunnel was not very deep, and at the end of it he saw a stone chamber.

Qin Tian immediately swam to it when he saw the stone chamber.

He arrived in front of the stone chamber not long after, and he discovered that the water in the tunnel had actually stopped at the end of the tunnel. The water cannot enter the stone chamber.

He then stepped into the stone chamber.

From within the tunnel, he could not see the stone chamber quite clearly. But after entering the stone chamber, he was immediately surprised by what was there.

At the end of the stone chamber, he found a hundred other tunnels lined up neatly.

"I wonder which fool made all this?"

"But looking at the structure of the tunnels, they shouldn't have been made by humans."

"And." He then narrowed his eyes.

"Looks like I have to make a breakthrough first."

It wasn't that he had a bad feeling, but he felt that his current strength wasn't enough to pass through the tunnel.

He was now at the pinnacle of the spiritual apprentice realm, breaking through to the realm of spiritual warriors for him was just about condensing one more spiritual source.

...

...

Ding.

"Congratulations, you have successfully broken through to the realm of spiritual warriors."

"No new skills were opened."

"The Longevity Scripture and Iron Dragon Fist are upgraded to the second stage."

"The game shop has opened. You can use your spiritual energy to purchase items in the game shop."

(Note: 100 spiritual energies can be converted into 1 spiritual source. The speed of converting spiritual energy into spiritual sources depends on the player's talent.)

....

....

After his cultivation broke through to the spiritual warrior realm, he could feel his strength increasing drastically even though his spiritual source only increased by 1 spiritual source.

1 spiritual source in the Spiritual Apprentice realm and 1 spiritual source in the Spiritual Warrior realm are clearly very different.

But he was too lazy to pay attention to the statistics.

After opening his eyes, he immediately glanced at the new feature that had appeared on the virtual screen which was the game shop.

There were many items being sold in the shop, but most of them were cultivation items.

Of course, there were a few items that took him by surprise.

There is an item that can help hide nicknames from other players, and there is even an item that can help completely hide the identity so that the player who uses it will look like an NPC.

"Mm." Qin Tian's eyes immediately widened when he saw a certain item.

He was surprised when he saw what the item could do.

(Can help awaken a innate weapon.)

Apart from body, bloodline, or soul, a person could also be born with a innate weapon.

The strength of the innate weapon might not be that strong when it was just awakened, but the strength of the innate weapon could be increased by making it refine other weapons.

Of course, the greatest advantage of a innate weapon was its compatibility with its owner.

And rumor has it that it can even fight on its own as its power grows stronger.

Qin Tian was immediately filled with desire the moment he saw the item. But he immediately calmed down when he saw the price of the item.

100,000 spiritual energy, and the price will increase again when he breaks through to the next realm.

That amount was basically the same as the spiritual energy he needed to reach the pinnacle of spiritual warriors.

"But no matter how expensive it is, I still have to buy it." Said Qin Tian in a low voice.

"Humph. I hope this place can help me gather 100,000 spiritual energy."

He then looked up at the tunnels in front of him. He looked at them one by one and in one of the tunnels he could see Yue Yang's footsteps.

"Um, son, I don't know if you can get through the tunnel, but you definitely won't be any faster than me."

After saying that, he then stepped into one of the tunnels.

...

Time passed quietly. One day later.

Cough... Cough... Cough...

Qin Tian coughed up blood countless times, and his body was also covered with many wounds.

"This really is a cursed place." He said while gritting his teeth.

He then turned his gaze around.

After a day in the tunnel, he finally arrived at the place.

As he looked around, he was immediately shocked when he saw that the place actually didn't look like a crypt. Rather, it looked more like a palace hall.

And when he looked inside the palace hall, his eyes immediately widened.

"Impossible, is it the son of an emperor?"
