1727: C1727 No One Was There

C1727 No One Was There

Mu Chen looked at the complicated terrain and felt that it was a natural hiding place.

He didn't know to what extent the Golden Toad could shrink its size to.

Those buildings that were not completely corroded by the seawater could be hidden by it.

Sacred Hands swept his psyche across the entire island.

"We did not discover any information fluctuations from strangers. We have to make the best use of our time to do proper things."

"The most powerful guardian of the treasury has disappeared. We have to obtain some good stuff from it."

"You really don't leave your old profession even after three sentences."

"The last time I returned without accomplishing anything, it was simply the greatest humiliation of my career."

Nether Sacred Hands did not care what kind of battle plan Mu Chen had come up with. Since the target had not appeared, he had to return to his old home.

The three of them used the light emitted from the crystals to find the entrance to the Treasure Vault's spiral staircase.

They fumbled their way down.

Immediately, they descended to a certain depth. The defensive formation's barrier was like a layer of glass, blocking all the seawater outside.

Sacred Hands made a small trick. He hid the trio's bodies in the shadows and used the refraction of the light beam to permeate the interior space.

"Hahaha, so many good things are mine. I can't leave a single one behind."

"Thinking back to the remnant thoughts of the ascenders from back then, they actually recklessly stopped me. In the end, the good things of their sect will still be kept by me."

The black metal pagoda appeared beside Nether Sacred Hands. Its size had become two meters tall, like a strange-looking luggage case.

It did not matter what happened.

As long as it was a weapon emitting spirit energy fluctuations in the stone chamber, no matter what type it was, it would be thrown into the black metal pagoda.

The weapons Mu Chen saw in the Celestial World were much better than the ones here, so he couldn't be interested anymore.

He only took the piles of gold, silver, and jewelry into his hands, which could be considered as a batch of goods for the Xiao Yao Pavilion jewelry store.

"Crack, crack, crack, crack..."

"Crack, crack, crack, crack..."

The reliefs on the stone walls flashed with a strange light, and then a few armored martial artists appeared, surrounding the three of them.

These common defensive methods were completely useless against Mu Chen.

He retreated to an empty spot next to him and said.

"After taking so many good things, it's time to put in some effort."

"It would be even better if you could find the energy core to control the formation"

Sacred Hands Netherworld smiled.

He did not place these shining sabers in his eyes.

When the armored warrior attacked, he casually stretched out his hands and pressed them tightly against the opponent's saber blades.

The color of the shadows instantly spread from their weapons.

The metal products were broken down into particles and were absorbed into the shadows.

The martial artist's body was almost naked, leaving only a few ragged clothes.

They did not have any negative emotions of panic or fear. They could not even tell how strong Sacred Hands was. By relying on the mission instructions in their minds, they wanted to eliminate the intruders in front of them.

The unarmed battle began just like that.

Mixed with the whooshing sound of the wind, countless afterimages appeared in the opponent's fist. It was like a meteor streaking across the horizon.

Sacred Hands Netherworld's somewhat frail body shuttled back and forth in the opponent's moves. In a few seconds, he had reduced the distance between them to the shortest possible.

A clean palm strike landed on the opponent's body.

With a dull thud, the warrior's body turned into minced meat of various sizes that scattered in all directions.

They were not living people, so there was no longer a scene of blood spurting out.

"Compared to the first time I came to the Treasure Vault, the strength of the guards I met is actually so much weaker."

"Perhaps Senior's cultivation level has improved even more."

"There's no need to flatter. A body that can be casually changed has already restricted our strength. We won't be able to have much prospects in this lifetime."

In the debris on the ground, Sacred Hands found a few dark red stones that resembled hearts.

Upon closer inspection.

The stones were also wrapped with faint white threads of spirit energy that were as fine as hair.

As the distance between them increased, the color of the thread also became fainter and fainter, finally dissipating into the surrounding air.

Mu Chen said excitedly.

"There must be something unknown controlling it. It might be related to the other political laws on the island."

"Quickly follow the clues and find the thing behind it."

The mutated Iron Threadworms were of great use again.

The three of them held the heart crystals and moved slowly, allowing the threads to slowly become clear.

Even the extremely hard rock layers could not resist the teeth of the iron threadworms. This species existed to dig holes.

"Bang! Bang!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

The Iron Threaded Worm's body easily crushed the stone wall. A few hundred meters below it, another lifelike stone statue was dug out.

The stone statue that was covered in mud was no different from ordinary junk, but Mu Chen, Nether Sacred Hands, and Lei Zhenyun could not help but take a few steps back.

They felt like they were confronting a peerless expert.

It was like an ordinary livestock seeing a lion and a tiger. There was no way to suppress the fear that came from the bottom of their hearts.

"What kind of person would be so powerful? It is much more powerful than the previous portraits."

"I think it's the founder of Mirage Island, a martial artist sect. I wonder which high realm he ascended to."2

"As long as he doesn't appear again and take away these treasures from me, I'll thank the heavens and earth."

Nether Sacred Hands mustered his courage to straighten the position of the stone statue before beginning a full body examination.

The white threads emitted by the heart crystal finally converged into the stone statue's body. From the looks of it, this was the key to controlling it.

As his mental strength slowly injected into the stone statue's body, he felt that all the objects on the island were clearly projected into his mind.

This included the array formations that were hidden everywhere.

"Hahaha, it's truly a waste of time to search everywhere."

"I didn't think that the method to control the array formation would be so simple. Perhaps it was because the disciples of this martial arts sect were too stupid that they made the creator simplify many steps."

"Can you check how much spirit energy is left in all the formations?"

"Don't worry, there are still a few mines in the depths of the island that have never been mined before. The array formation is constantly extracting power from the ores and crystals. At the very least, it can still operate normally for thousands of years."

Mu Chen's worries were swept away.

Next, it was time to set up the bait and lure Luo Qianqiu over.

He took out a few weapons with the strongest energy fluctuations from the treasure earlier and inserted them into a huge rock on the ground.
