After rising from the Gray Python's corpse, Xuan Sheng frowned at the foul-smelling snake blood covering him, feeling rather helpless.
The deeper he went into the cave, the more severe the corrosion from the magic qi became. He was now losing four Life points every second, so one could imagine how thick the stench of decay in the air was.

When he reached the treasure chest, the exquisite chest covered in golden patterns was no longer a monster this time.
He opened the somewhat heavy lid. Inside was empty, and the enormous space contained practically nothing.
"Damn! Why make it so big
