Tang Li Xue took out a mid-tier spirit stone from her space pouch and used it to illuminate her way since all mid-tier spirit stones were emitting a faint light.
The light from the mid-tier spirit stone was too dim, so it was far from enough from illuminating the way in front of Tang Li Xue like a flashlight, but she could still see everything clearly with her fox eyes.
There were countless ancient-looking murals carved on the entire cave's right and left walls, ceiling, and even the floor.
Tang Li Xue explored the dark cave for a few hours, but she still failed to find any clues on how to complete this last trial.
Tang Li Xue only kept walking forward from the beginning until now in this few hours, but she still could not see the end of the cave.
"This cave is really strange... Why does it seem that I only walk in the circle all this time?" Tang Li Xue murmured and frowned deeply while pondering her next moves for a while.
In the end, Tang Li Xue decided to take out many low-tier spirit stones from her space pouch and dropped them one by one on her way while kept walking forward like before.
In about an hour or so, Tang Li Xue's expression turned dark and gloomy when she saw low-tier spirit stones that she already dropped on the ground before.
"Damn it! So, my guess is right. We are only walking in the circle all this time!" Tang Li Xue cursed while gnashed her teeth in anger since she already wasted several hours of her time walking in the circle in this dark cave.
Tang Li Xue really was really having a great headache right now... because this dark cave only has one way! She could only walk forward or turned around and walk back to the path he had already walked before.
Nya~ Nyaaan~ Nyaaaaaw~!
Just when Tang Li Xue felt gloomy and confused about what she needs to do in this dark cave to complete the last trial, Little Loki, who still sat leisurely on Tang Li Xue's right shoulder, suddenly meowed while pointing its small furry paw onto the cave's wall.
"What is it, Little Loki? Is there something strange there? Let's take a look together then." Tang Li Xue asked as she erased her gloomy expression and replaced it with a gentle smile on her extremely beautiful face.
Tang Li Xue took Little Loki from her shoulder and hugged it while gently patting its tiny furry head as she approached the cave's wall that Little Loki pointed before.
"What is wrong with this wall? Is there a secret path behind it? Or maybe a strange item like the crystal orb in the previous trial is hidden behind it?" Tang Li Xue raised Little Loki and asked to it again with a tone filled with curiosity.
"Nya~ Nya~" Little Loki meowed while profusely shook its furry little head to deny all Tang Li Xue's questions.
Tang Li Xue frowned in confusion, then she put her slender finger on her chin and muttered while thinking deeply: "Are you trying to tell me that these ancient murals might be our way to complete this last trial?"
"Nyaaaaaw~!" Little Loki finally nodded its tiny furry head signaled that it thought so.
Tang Li Xue stared at the ancient murals carved on the cave's wall with a serious expression for ten minutes or so before nodded her head and blurted out: "All right..... I have absolutely no idea what these pictures mean."
Little Loki almost slipped out from Tang Li Xue's embrace and fell when it heard Tang Li Xue's word.
It rolled its third eye in scorn while thinking: 'Then why do you keep staring at those murals for so long if you cannot even understand any of it?!'
Tang Li Xue coughed with an embarrassed expression when she felt Little Loki's scorning gaze, so she tried to state her deduction to Little Loki to make up for it: "Cough... I think these ancient murals are not that simple to read or understand. It should be written with some kind of code to confuse us, and we must carefully decode it to clear this last trial."
