Anything Sea-Covering Dragon Emperor had treated with such special importance could not be as simple as it appeared on the surface. This was also one of the reasons Snow Emperor had believed it to be a treasure—because of Sea-Covering Dragon Emperor's unusual handling of it.
Among all known treasures, there were quite a few that had been placed in seemingly dangerous locations to reduce the chance of being discovered. The others thought much the same as you. None of them could accept wasting five days in the Great Void Realm only to gain nothing.
Moreover, you had all prepared for this operation for a long time. If the treasure you had yearned for day and night did not exist, no one could accept returning in such a bedraggled state.
Even before the Gua Feng Tribulation, a calamity terrifying enough to be called an Imperial Tribulation disaster, you still began testing it...
Your tests had not gone smoothly to begin with. After wasting another two days without finding anything, the Gua Feng Tribulation before you truly seemed to be nothing more than a disaster, with no other peculiarities.
But on the eighth day after entering the Great Void Realm—the third day since arriving before the Gua Feng disaster—the situation took a turn.
That day, just as you had recovered and were about to take over the ongoing testing from Xue Que, you noticed something flicker deep within the Gua Feng Tribulation.
The light flashed incredibly quickly, but you did not believe it was an illusion. In that instant alone, you remembered the location where it had appeared.
You did not excitedly tell the others about this discovery. Instead, you planned to continue testing as usual. Only, unlike before, when you had tested without direction, this time you had an exact marker.
