The sight of the treasure chests on the giant grass lifted Chen Lin's spirits as well.
At the same time, he silently marveled.
The treasure chests that flew out were actually the "seeds" of this grass. That was truly unexpected.
But he had no intention of collecting them.
Instead, he suggested, "These are all ordinary treasure chests. There's no way to tell whether the treasures inside are good or bad. Let's keep going deeper and look for exquisite treasure chests."
"Exactly."
The Divine Maiden agreed.
They continued exploring, with the Divine Maiden still clearing the way and Chen Lin bringing up the rear.
They walked for well over an hour.
Then their view opened up, revealing a broad river ahead, its rippling surface shimmering with dazzling colors.
The Great River's source was a waterfall suspended high in the void. It seemed as though water from beyond the heavens was pouring in, roaring thunderously.
At its far end, the river split into several branches, each flowing back into the void.
Its origin was unknown.
So was its destination.
This space merely contained a stretch of it, nourishing the Grass Forest on either bank and allowing treasure chests to grow one after another.
"This river..."
The Divine Maiden walked to the bank, scooped up a handful of water without hesitation, and held it beneath her nose to smell it.
Then her eyes flashed.
"It really is."
"Really is what? What have you discovered, Divine Maiden?"
Chen Lin immediately asked.
"You don't need to call me Divine Maiden anymore. I have my own name, Grey. You can also call me the Mind Apostle. That's a title I gave myself."
"So you're Superior Deity Grey."
Chen Lin cupped his hands.
Grey was quite pleased with the address of Superior Deity.
She nodded in satisfaction,
