Although Larvitar had only a limited understanding of illusion techniques, it could still understand advancing in a straight line.
Its scarlet eyes instantly blazed with astonishing brightness, every trace of confusion swept away and replaced by pure excitement and drive!
Larvitar let out a powerful screech. Its short hind legs stomped the ground, and its Rock Carapace-covered body shot toward the thick Black Rock Wall Lou Gao had indicated like a cannonball!
"Clang! Crack! Boom—!!!"
Its incomparably sharp claws instantly tore through the hard rock, sending shards of stone flying like an explosion!
Larvitar did not pause in the slightest. Its small body turned into a tireless tunnel-boring machine, brutally and directly carving out a brand-new passage nearly two meters in diameter, plunging straight downward through the thick Black Rock Layer!
Lin Xia and Lou Gao followed close behind.
After digging down less than thirty meters, Larvitar, which had been excavating furiously ahead, suddenly froze!
Then, its distinctive shriek—filled with extreme excitement and longing—pierced through the roar of shattering rock and echoed clearly through the passage.
"Yō Jī—!!!!!!"
This cry was even more piercing than when it had discovered the Black-patterned Profound Rock Python's scales, brimming with the ecstatic joy of finding an unparalleled treasure!
Lin Xia and Lou Gao's hearts both began pounding wildly!
They exchanged a glance and saw the brilliant light erupting in each other's eyes!
Lou Gao was so excited that even his beard trembled!
"Quick! Get over there!"
They hastened their steps and rushed to the end of the passage Larvitar had dug.
The sight before them made even the well-traveled Divine Craftsman Lou Gao and Lin Xia, who had lived two lives, hold their breath in an instant, deeply shaken!
At the end of the passage was not a larger cavern, but... a wall!
