Upon closer inspection, he discovered that there were streaks of Spirit Light emanating from the stone. Zhang Yan noticed something unusual and floated towards that spot. After landing, he examined it carefully and smiled at the few people who had landed behind him, saying, "Have the three fellow Daoists noticed anything?"
Song Chuyuan's eyes emitted a ray of brilliance. After a while, he declared, "This stone is transformed from ancient wood over millions of years and contains a stone core within. In just over ten years, it can break out of its shell, and if luck favors it, it can transform by absorbing the local human aura."
The Limping Daoist shook his head and said, "Wood transformed into stone spirits is rare in this world. It may seem like less than ten years, but I dare say it won't emerge from its shell without encountering disaster!"
