Fluorescence bloomed in the clear lake. Mu Chen and the others stared at the lake intently, as if wanting to pierce through it to explore the treasures contained within.

“Let’s get ready to take action.” Han Shan licked his lips. It had been an arduous journey, and now that he had finally come all the way to his destination, it was time to harvest the fruit. Mu Chen and the others nodded enthusiastically, clearly unable to hold their excitement back.

“Try not to contaminate the lake. As for who the treasure belongs to, it’s up to fate.” Han Shan laughed, and then he moved first and swept out. With a wave of his sleeve, majestic spiritual energy rolled out in great waves, and as the huge waves rolled, the massive white bones in the lake were exposed.

Han Shan found a landing point. His figure flickered and directly appeared on a section of white bone. He then sat down cross-legged, and spiritual energy triggered a hurricane that surrounded his body. The lake howled, but it was unable to approach him.

The other three strong men of the Demonic Rhino Clan also immediately swept out, each looking for a section of white bone, and sat down hurriedly.

“Let’s do it, too.” Mu Chen nodded towards Nine Nether, Ink Blade, and Ink Ring. He no longer hesitated and appeared in mid-air above the lake. He looked down at the vast lake. Deep in the lake, there seemed to be an indescribably large skeleton. Even though it had fallen thousands of years ago, it still had a palpable mysterious, majestic aura.

Mu Chen sighed in his heart as his body floated down. He landed on a white bone and then sat down cross-legged. Immediately, he felt an unusually cold sensation that made him shiver.

“Let me try. What kind of treasures can I encounter?” Mu Chen murmured, closing his eyes. His spiritual energy perception quietly flowed down from his body to the bones he was sitting on and spread little by little into the lake.

When his perception entered the lake, Mu Chen immediately sensed an oppressive pressure from all sides. Under this pressure, his originally sharp perception became much duller, and the range of perception was also reduced by nearly 90%.

“Indeed, it’s not as simple as I thought.” Mu Chen again sighed deeply in his heart. He had expected that the treasure hunt would not go smoothly. It now seemed that indeed, with the lake’s suppression, perceiving the treasures would become extraordinarily difficult.

Even so, Mu Chen would not give up, thus he waited patiently and gradually calmed down. If he lost his patience in this treasure hunt, he would inevitably return empty-handed.

In the cold lake, his perception traveled along a skeleton, and Mu Chen became aware of the skeleton’s size. According to his estimate, this Treasure Beast’s body may have been 100,000,000 feet long, and that was colossal. Moreover, even though it had fallen thousands of years ago, the skeleton was still as strong as gold and iron. Even with how strong Mu Chen’s body was, it was far inferior in comparison.

If it had been possible to remove the bones, they would have been able to create countless Divine Artifacts…

Mu Chen marvelled as his perception swept out. The Treasure Beast would not be weaker than Lord Gladiator had been in the Body-refining Tower. However, such a powerful existence had eventually fallen with the destruction of the Land of the Divine Beasts. It was hard to imagine how terrible and powerful the Extraterritorial Clan was.

Time passed quickly in the course of Mu Chen’s incredulous marvels. Without realizing it, Mu Chen’s perception had spread along the skeleton for nearly half an hour. To his great frustration, he had only sensed 1,000 feet in that half an hour, which was obviously not worth mentioning in comparison with the Treasure Beast’s mammoth body.

Moreover, in the course of his perception, Mu Chen had not sensed any fluctuations of treasures. If he hadn’t believed Han Shan, and the skeleton in front of him was something extraordinary, he could not help but wonder if they had found the wrong target…

However, Mu Chen’s doubt did not last long, and with the deepening of his perception, he suddenly noticed a strange wave coming out of a skeleton in front of him.

Aware of this fluctuation, Mu Chen’s heart rejoiced, and his perception rapidly deepened. He then perceived a gray dagger quietly suspended in the bones. There were ancient lines of inscription on the dagger’s surface. The blade’s edge glowed with purple light, and an extremely sharp aura emanated from the blade, causing a slight chill to be felt.

This dagger was actually a Magnificent Grade Divine Artifact.
