Chapter 871

Long Chen was startled and hastily turned to look . At the foot of a mountain, an open coffin was releasing an evil aura . Black light soared into the clouds .

Xue You was behind that coffin, filled with excitement . Several Corrupt experts were guarding him, not letting others do anything to him .

“It’s actually a corrupt weapon!” Long Chen was startled . That aura was too evil, and it gave him a bad feeling .

Suddenly, a bone claw flew out of the coffin and floated in the air . It was pitch-black, and that evil aura grew stronger, as if a bloodthirsty fiend had been released .

“Not good . That’s an Evil Dragon’s claw . Such a weapon is extremely rare . Rumor is that Evil Dragons were expelled from the dragon race due to their sinister and brutal tendencies . As for the lifeforms related to dragons in the outside world, the legend is that they are nonsense caused by the Evil Dragons . They constantly mated with various life-forms, creating all kinds of hybrids with the bloodline of the dragon race . Although that kind of bloodline was very low grade, because they are related to dragons, it was said that their mating caused endless trouble in ancient times .

“They ended up infuriating experts, and they were hunted down . From then on, Evil Dragons went almost extinct, but these are just stories and no one can be sure . However, even if they were killed down to the last, those hybrids created because of them continued to mate, and there was no way to kill them all .

“That Evil Dragon claw has such a powerful aura, so it shouldn’t be from a hybrid . It should be from a true, pure-blooded Evil Dragon,” said Yue Xiaoqian .

At this time, that dragon claw flew into the air, seeming to want to fly away on its own . But it was blocked by what appeared to be countless formations . As for Xue You, he opened his third eye, and a ray of black light enveloped the bone claw . He seemed to be trying to communicate with it .

“Long Chen, he’s your enemy . You should stop him, or he’ll obtain a powerful weapon,” prodded Yue Xiaoqian .

Long Chen shook his head . “That fellow isn’t an idiot . He has so many guards, and over seven of them are rank three Celestials . Furthermore, they’re holding tiles . Those are clearly tiles to wors.h.i.+p their dead ancestors . They should have long since prepared a formation . The reason why they only opened the coffin after this long was because they were making those preparations . Even if we went over, we probably won’t be able to break through their defenses . Instead, we’d be jumping into their trap . ”

Only now did Yue Xiaoqian notice the tiles in their hands . Those weren’t any nonsense tiles for their dead ancestors like he said, but formation tiles . Furthermore, they seemed to be extremely high level and required several people to activate at the same time . Its power had to be great .

Although Long Chen was normally a scoundrel without a proper thought in his head, and he could even be unbearably crude, Yue Xiaoqian had to admire that he could see through their trap with a single glance .

“Ignore them . Let’s continue working to get as many treasures as possible . We’re in a race against time,” said Long Chen . He began flipping through coffins again, and Yue Xiaoqian learned from his example . She could also accurately find the coffins that contained treasures .

As long as they opened the slightest crack in a coffin, the Eastern Wasteland Bell would be able to take out what was inside . The two of them worked rapidly, like two thieves trying to gather all the treasures before running .

Quite a few people found this odd, thinking they had to be stupid . Even after that many coffins, they hadn’t found any treasures they wanted?

In the beginning, most of them thought Long Chen’s luck was bad, and he didn’t know how to pick good coffins . Perhaps he was getting empty ones every time .

But then they saw that when he opened the coffins, a burst of light would erupt . That clearly showed that there were treasures in those coffins . But he just opened them a bit before leaving .

So then people a.s.sumed he was looking for a specific treasure . After all, completely opening a coffin took a great deal of time, but just checking one merely took a few breaths of time .

People sneered inside, thinking that his greed would cause him to obtain nothing in the end . Looking at them rapidly flipping through coffins, their gazes were full of ridicule .

Yu Changhao had now opened his third coffin . Unlike Xue You, he relied purely on luck . On the third coffin, he found an amazing treasure . When he opened the coffin, golden light erupted and no one was able to see what was inside .

His runes lit up with a blinding light, and he spread his wings . A powerful pressure descended, locking onto the treasure and trying to put it away .

Treasure items had their own item spirits, and item spirits had their own wills . If someone weak wanted to subdue them, they would struggle and try to escape at the first moment .

Ordinary Treasure items didn’t have intelligent item spirits . But the stronger the Treasure item, the smarter the item spirit and the more they wouldn’t want to be restrained by someone else .

So the Treasure item Yu Changhao had found had to be an incredibly powerful one . The disturbance brought endless envy from others, but no one dared to do anything to him .

On one end, Xue You was trying to communicate with the Evil Dragon bone claw, while here, Yu Changhao was trying to subdue this Treasure item . But to subdue such a treasure was extremely difficult . After all, Treasure items were for Foundation Forging experts . They were just at the peak of Xiantian .
