Chapter 90 Left Behind Treasures (2/2)

Their footsteps eventually came to a stop just outside the abandoned herb cultivation field where Zhou Yuan had dug up the Fire Spirit Grain.

Zhou Yuan's eyes darted everywhere, but all he found were the rather desolate bare walls of the valley. There were no traces of anything out of the ordinary.

Wei Canglan's gaze also scanned the area and was likewise unable to discover anything. Thus, they could only turn their doubtful gazes towards Yaoyao.

”Are there really other treasures here?” Zhou Yuan was a little skeptical.

Yaoyao ignored him as she walked forward into the abandoned herb cultivation field. She squatted down and gently rubbed the ground as she closed her eyes.

Upon seeing this, no one dared to make any noise.

Several minutes later, Yaoyao opened her eyes and pointed towards the large hole that had been left behind after Zhou Yuan had dug out the Fire Spirit Grain earlier and said, ”Continue digging there.”

Zhou Yuan was somewhat puzzled. He was the one who had dug that hole, and had not felt any peculiar undulations from below. However, he still nodded towards Lu Tieshan and the rest due to his trust in Yaoyao.

Thus, Lu Tieshan and a few Heaven Gate experts moved forward began to circulate their Genesis Qi, sending waves of Genesis Qi into the hole to dig deeper and deeper.

Layers of soil were sent flying and the originally six feet deep hole very quickly became over thirty feet deep. If one looked in, all one would see was pitch-black darkness.

Buzz!

As one of the Heaven Gate experts shot out another stream of Genesis Qi into the soil, a sound was heard as something had been struck. Light suddenly emerged from the depths of the hole, blasting away the Heaven Gate expert with a 'bang', causing him to slam into one of the valley walls.

This sudden turn of events stunned everyone.

”It's a Genesis Rune boundary!” Zhou Yuan's eyes flickered brightly as he stared at the bottom of the pitch-black hole. When the light appeared earlier, he had sensed a very faint pulse from inside.

”Let's go down and take a look.”

Everyone carefully descended into the pit. They quickly discovered a barrier stretching over one corner of the pit where a bronze door stood.

Wei Canglan uttered in astonishment, ”I never imagined that there would be such a thing below the herb cultivation field.”

Zhou Yuan also gasped in surprise. The barrier outside of the bronze door was a Genesis Rune boundary that both protected and sealed off any undulations. No wonder he was unable to detect it before.

Thank G.o.d for Yaoyao's powerful Spirit perception, or no one would have realised that there were still treasures under the herb cultivation field.

”This Genesis Rune boundary seems to be very powerful.” Wei Canglan's expression was grave as he stared at the barrier. Even someone as powerful as himself could feel an extremely fatal sensation from it.

Yaoyao observed the barrier as she explained, ”This is a special Genesis Rune boundary, and a very specific Genesis Rune is needed to open it. Forcibly opening it would cause it to self-destruct, turning the trespa.s.ser and the treasures inside to nothingness.”

”If it self-destructs, I'm afraid that nothing within a hundred mile radius will survive.”

Upon hearing her words, everyone's hearts trembled as they involuntarily took several steps backwards. Even Zhou Yuan was a little frightened.

”Looks like it's hopeless for us.” Zhou Yuan smiled bitterly. It was likely that only the most high-ranking members of the Battle Puppet Sect knew of the special Genesis Rune, let alone people like themselves.

Without the special Genesis Rune, they would not be able to open the barrier regardless of how capable they were.

Everyone else nodded in agreement as feelings of regret rose within them. A treasure mountain stood before their eyes, but none of them could enter.

However, while everyone was feeling regret, Yaoyao suddenly grinned.

”That may not be so…”
