Chapter 70: Cave

Chunks of flames descended from the sky as if it were raining fire.

Amidst the falling flames, a red streak of light flew back into Su Chen’s hand.

It was the Flame Crystal statue.

After only being used once, its body had visibly shrunk in exchange for the extremely powerful attack.

After such a frightening attack, nothing remained intact. All that remained were scattered pieces of flesh on the ground and the smell of charred flesh in the air.

That bow was perhaps the only remaining item.

Su Chen walked over and picked up the Tree Demon Bow from the ground.

The bow seemed to be alive. Perhaps realizing that its owner had changed, the Tree Demon on the bow twisted its head around and bit Su Chen.

“Foolhardy!” Su Chen harrumphed. He stretched his hand out and flicked the Tree Demon’s forehead. The Tree Demon let out a piercing, pained cry.

Suddenly, Su Chen felt his vision blur as countless demons charged in his direction.

Su Chen instinctively tossed the bow to the side. All of the illusions disappeared, and everything returned to how it was.

“It can generate illusions?” Su Chen was somewhat surprised.

After trying it out a few times, Su Chen finally determined that the bow truly did have some strange soul-influencing capabilities. The bow would cause the user to sink into a kind of illusion realm – no wonder it was called the Cursed Tree Demon Bow.

He didn’t know how Zhang Sheng’an was able to wield it.

Su Chen searched the corpse pile for quite a while, but he didn’t find anything that could suppress the bow. Either it had been destroyed in battle, or Zhang Sheng’an had cultivated an Origin Skill that allowed him to resist soul-type attacks; however, when taking into consideration that his Soul Eye and Soul-Fixation Technique had been effective against Zhang Sheng’an, Su Chen reckoned that it was the former.

However, that item probably no longer existed.

Apart from the bow, Su Chen found an Origin Ring in the pile with three thousand Origin Stones inside. For a student, that was already quite impressive. Unfortunately, all of Zhang Sheng’an’s protective treasures had either been completely used up or destroyed during the battle.

Even so, Su Chen was very satisfied with just the Tree Demon Bow.

He tossed the bow into his Origin Ring as he turned to leave. However, he suddenly sensed something and glanced at his surroundings before realizing that he was standing right in front of a massive cave.

What attracted his attention, however, was not the cave, but a small, fire-red flower within the cave.

Three Suns Flower.

Even though it was a low-tier Three Suns Flower, they were still very rare.

Because it was so hard to find, stumbling upon one was not an everyday occurrence.

Su Chen slowly eased towards it, constantly scanning his surroundings as he carefully picked the Three Suns Flower.

There was no ambush or trap. He had obtained an extremely rare medicinal herb just like that.

Even Su Chen was caught a bit off-guard by his sudden stroke of good luck.

It wasn’t until this moment that Su Chen began to realize his surroundings looked a bit strange.

The cave was a bit strange. It didn’t look like a natural formation but rather a man-made construct. But who would dig out such a large cave here? And they had completely ignored the Three Suns Flower growing inside the cave……

A thought flashed through his mind. He suddenly realized where he was.

This was the Clay Giant’s cave!

His pursuit of Zhang Sheng’an had actually brought him to the Clay Giant’s lair.

At this moment, the Clay Giant was still out and about and could return at any time.

An idea appeared in Su Chen’s head that he could not suppress: he was going to look inside the cave.

This was a rare opportunity. No one knew what kinds of treasures the Clay Giant’s cave contained. If Su Chen didn’t take a look, he would probably regret it for his entire life.

After thinking for a moment, Su Chen decided to take the risk and enter the cave.
