C189 The Ancient Tomb Opened
The north-western corner of Penglian City was supposed to be very peaceful, but a few days ago, someone was working in the well. Occasionally, they found a mysterious gravestone. There was also a very powerful sealing force on the gravestone. This attracted Cultivator's attention, and they all came to investigate. Finally, they confirmed that this was the location of expert at Astral Reaching Stage's grave.
Expert at Astral Reaching Stage was an absolute expert in the East Mystic Region. He had a very high status and a prestigious status. It was obvious that there were many treasures in the tomb of such an expert.
Therefore, a few True Martial Stage experts joined hands and used their powerful strength to crush the sealing force.
Two days later, the entire Penglian City suddenly trembled. Almost everyone could feel it.
"This vibration... Could it be that the ancient tomb is about to open?"
Without much hesitation, Wu Chen and the others immediately rushed to the location of the tomb in the northwest corner. When they arrived, they found that this place was already crowded with people. Countless people crowded here, wanting to enter the tomb. Searching for treasures, obtaining treasures, increasing one's strength.
"That's where the tomb is located?"
Wu Chen raised his head and saw a stone tablet quietly standing in the middle of the crowd. Waves of divine light bloomed. This layer of divine light was the sealing power of the tomb. It was because of this layer of divine light that prevented people from entering.
At this moment, the divine light was rapidly weakening. The light was dim, and it seemed like it was on the verge of collapse. The sealing power of the tomb had finally been broken after a few days and nights of hard work by a few True Martial Stage experts.
However, it had to be said that expert at Astral Reaching Stage was truly formidable. Even though the seal had been broken, the divine light still refused to disperse. Therefore, no one dared to act rashly. As long as the divine light was still there, they would have to wait.
As time passed, the divine light became dimmer and dimmer. The power contained within it also became weaker and weaker, and more and more people gathered around it. They all looked at the tomb without blinking their eyes. This was expert at Astral Reaching Stage's tomb. There must be a lot of treasures inside. That was what they had been dreaming of.
After waiting for an unknown period of time, a commotion broke out from the crowd all of a sudden.
"Look, the seal is about to disappear completely!"
These words caused everyone's hearts to race. Everyone stared at their target without blinking. Even their breaths were held, and many of them were already prepared. Once the sealing power completely dissipated and collapsed, they would immediately attack. They would enter the tomb first and seize the treasure.
This time, the crowd did not wait for too long. A moment later, the divine radiance lingering on the tombstone finally could not hold on any longer and completely collapsed.
"The seal has dissipated. It has completely disappeared."
"It really disappeared this time. I can't feel it anymore."
"Let's go, let's go in quickly."
The next moment, the crowd burst into an uproar. Everyone rushed forward, scrambling for the treasure. No one could resist the temptation of the treasure. As for the danger, it had long been forgotten.
Wu Chen was in the crowd. Even if he didn't move, there were still people pushing him forward, because the people behind wanted to go in.
Finally, Wu Chen walked into the tomb and looked around. This tomb was really wide, just like an underground castle. In the surrounding space, people could be seen walking by from time to time. They were all here for treasure hunting, walking in a hurry.
Treasure hunting in such a place not only required one's luck, but also one's strength. If one's luck was bad, then one would simply be unable to find a treasure. If one's strength was poor, then even if one obtained a treasure, it would still be unable to protect the treasure, and both of them were indispensable.
However, Wu Chen's luck didn't seem to be very good. After walking along the ancient tomb for an hour, he still couldn't find any decent treasure. This made him feel very unpleasant.
At this moment, Wu Chen suddenly saw a bright light on the ground in front of him. It seemed to be some kind of treasure. He was curious. Wu Chen walked over, and this thing was buried in the soil. This was the tomb, and the light was very dim. If it wasn't for the light from this thing, he wouldn't have been able to find it.
"This is a middle-grade Numinous Treasure."
Wu Chen dug it out from the soil and took a look. He was secretly shocked. He didn't expect this thing to be a middle-grade Numinous Treasure.
However, before he could take a closer look, he heard a cold shout.
"Put down that treasure."
Wu Chen raised his head and looked in front of him. Three young men were standing three meters away from him. They were looking at the treasure in his hand with burning eyes, and their eyes were filled with endless greed.
Although they didn't know what this treasure was, they could sense a powerful fluctuation coming from it. From this, it could be seen that it was a treasure. If they obtained it, their strength would be greatly enhanced.
Wu Chen glanced at these people and shook his head. None of them had a very strong cultivation base. The most powerful one among them was only at the Peak Of the Ninth Empyrean of Spirit Rotation Stage. To him, such a person was just too weak. He only needed a single punch to get rid of all of them.
He casually threw this thing into the Storage Ring and fed it to the Dragonslaying Knife. To him, this thing did not have much use. With the Dragonslaying Knife in his possession, a middle-grade Numinous Treasure and Low-grade Spiritual Treasure would not be of much use to him.
However, it was different for the Dragonslaying Knife. To it, any Spiritual Treasure was something it liked. Therefore, when it saw Wu Chen throw something in... It was extremely excited. Its entire body was emitting a bright light as it flew over from a corner. A powerful force emerged and poured into the treasure. Absorb and refine it, then decompose it into his own strength.
It had yet to break through to the High-Grade Spiritual Treasure. No one knew how many treasures it would need to devour before it could successfully break through to the High-Grade Spiritual Treasure. In order to grow faster, it needed to break through to the High-Grade as soon as possible. He could only devour other things to obtain the energy needed to break through. If it accumulated more energy, it would be able to break through to the High-Grade.
Wu Chen ignored this fellow. Now, he had to cultivate this saber with all his effort, and break through to High-Grade Spiritual Treasure as soon as possible. As long as it became a High-Grade Spiritual Treasure, no matter how much effort he put in, it would be worth it.
When they saw that not only did Wu Chen not hand over the treasure, but he also kept the treasure into the Storage Ring, the three of them flew into a rage. A powerful aura instantly surged out like a raging ocean, and it was endless.
"Kid, you're tired of living! How dare you swallow the treasure!"
Wu Chen shrugged his shoulders. He didn't care about these small fries at all.
"Kid, go to hell!"
One of them shouted out loudly and threw a powerful punch at Wu Chen. Since this brat was stubborn, then don't blame him for being ruthless.
