Chapter 23：Dive (Additional Update For SFA Helmsman Dong Chen) (2/2)

Wei Huo instantly swam towards the direction of the light. As he reached the bottom of the sea, he saw a hidden cave. The light was coming out of the cave.

As Wei Huo dived deeper, he saw an enormous cave mouth, which was about 15 meters in diameter. Near the cave mouth was a tremendous crater. It was obviously the habitat for the large whale.

Natural treasures were always guarded by vicious beasts. That was the norm of traditional Xianxia novels.

However others kill beasts to steal treasures, I only began to hunt the treasure after I killed the beast.

Wei Huo breathed into the air pocket made by fish maws. The surroundings of the air pocket were covered by a layer of animal leather for protection. However, the air bubbles inside stunk. A waft of fishy smell could be felt on the tip of the tongue after inhaling from the air pocket.

However, Wei Huo could not care any less. He spat out some air bubbles and pushed himself into the tremendous cave mouth.

Wei Huo paused for a moment and got ready to explore the underwater cave. After all learning from his previous experiences, caves with treasures were extremely dangerous.

However, Wei Huo came face to face with a wall.

Wei Huo was left speechless.

'Where is the cave? Why is it a wall?'

A small gem radiating white light was placed on the center of the wall. It looked dim from far away, yet bright when one got closer to it.

'This couldn't be a treasure, right?'

Wei Huo began digging the gem with his finger. However, he could not remove it as it was too tightly embedded to the wall. Then, Wei Huo fished out his hunting knife to pry out the gem yet, he still failed.

Wei Huo bustled about but still could not pry the gem out of the wall. He wondered what material was used to build the wall such that it was so solid.

Wei Huo was disheartened. He did not gain anything then!

Then, Wei Huo saw a line of words on the wall. It was written in Mandarin.

Wei Huo was speechless. ”…”

It was written 'Drip Blood To Open The Door.'

He kept silent.

Indeed, mankind has always been disregarding small things in life. A normal person would have found ways to open the wall when they see it. 'Why did removing the gem come to my mind first?'

Mankind was indeed different.

That gem was actually a lock.

A thought suddenly struck Wei Huo's mind. 'This was a motherf*ucking game. Which player would try to dig out a gem on the wall?'

Wei Huo facepalmed himself. He still could not adapt to the world's current pace.

Wei Huo stretched out a finger and cut it using his hunting knife. Blood spurted out from his finger and scattered away with the seawater.

Wei Huo instantly felt that his hunting knife was quite impressive. How could it cut open his finger with just a light touch when his skin was so tough? Had he overlooked a magical weapon?

Wei Huo's blood had already dripped onto the gem.

The gem then radiated a dazzling white light!

A Chinese idiom that criticizes people who stubbornly stick to an ineffective method of doing something while disregarding any changes in the situation.
