What presented itself before Ren Ke's eyes was a vortex-shaped, dark green stone, somewhat resembling chalcedony, with traces of having been chiseled in the middle and on both sides.
Ren Ke noticed an obscure object exposed in the middle.
She pressed her hand on it, feeling something akin to iron. With slight force, it sunk in, leaving her somewhat astonished.
Before she could marvel for long, a sudden "rumble" shook the ground beside her.
Ren Ke instinctively turned her head, only to see a large portion of the stone wall moving, swiftly retreating to reveal a passage large enough for one person to pass through!
"We've got it, we've got it!"
Ren Ke immediately called out to alert the others outside.
Lin Wu and the rest, upon hearing the call, quickened their steps and gathered at the crevice. Lin Wu, Chang Chi, and Gao Zhouwen, who were nearby, crouched down to take a look.
