The Great Secret Treasure Really Exists? The Volcano Secret Realm Opens
Upon hearing Queen Medusa's exclamation, Wang Chen also fell into deep thought.
It's quite puzzling that such a level of power could emerge from such a small place.
"Could that so-called Great Secret Treasure really exist?"
"Was that so-called Volcano Venerable not joking?"
Did he really leave behind the Volcano Secret Realm, a legacy for future generations?
Various thoughts flashed through Wang Chen's mind.
"Um?"
Suddenly, as Wang Chen pondered carefully, he noticed some details that he hadn't paid attention to before.
"This thing doesn't look like something ancient and dilapidated; it seems more like it was destroyed by someone not long ago."
After noticing this suspicious point, Wang Chen also exerted all his Soul Power to carefully investigate it.
"Indeed, my guess was correct."
This thing was indeed recently damaged by someone. If my Soul Power hadn't been strong enough, I might not have been able to detect this suspicious detail.
This Broken Jade was indeed no ordinary item.
"The problematic Broken Jade, coupled with the information we gathered as soon as we entered the Rock Mountain Empire, suggests that this so-called Volcano Secret Realm is indeed a trap set by someone."
"Interesting, very interesting."
Thinking back on some clues he had obtained before, Wang Chen roughly guessed that this Volcano Secret Realm would not be so simple.
However, Wang Chen was not worried at all; on the contrary, he became even more interested.
I initially thought it was just a rumor, but now it seems there's more to it than meets the eye.
Regardless of who's behind this, if they dare to scheme against so many people and are capable of going this far, then that force must have some tricks up their sleeve.
This means another bumper harvest.
Wang Chen wouldn't randomly commit murder and robbery.
However, when someone schemes against him, Wang Chen is not the type to remain silent.
"Strengthen!"
Wang Chen silently recited a command and activated his Enhancement Ability.
Of course, under Wang Chen's cover, it appeared to be merely using his Dou Qi to probe the Broken Jade.
"It failed!"
The Golden Finger that had always worked flawlessly failed on this piece of Broken Jade.
This result further confirms his hypothesis.
He didn't believe that the power of a Broken Jade could surpass that of Golden Finger.
The reason for this failure must be that some intelligence still remained within the Broken Jade.
Only in this way will the Golden Finger for cheating) fail.
"It seems our treasure hunt might be getting quite interesting."
Wang Chen smiled and said to Queen Medusa.
I initially thought it would be just an ordinary trip, but I never expected that something so interesting would happen.
Wang Chen wanted to see who was stirring up trouble behind the scenes.
After tossing the Broken Jade into his Storage Ring and assigning Half-Saint Heavenly Demon Puppet to guard it, Wang Chen no longer bothered with this special item.
No matter how much the mastermind schemed behind the scenes, Wang Chen didn't believe that a mere piece of Broken Jade could turn the world upside down in the hands of Half-Saint.
Even if this Half-Saint is just a puppet, and is much weaker than a normal Half-Saint.
But Half-Saint is Half-Saint; this level is enough to crush the power level of that Broken Jade.
After arranging the matter of the Broken Jade, Wang Chen chatted and exchanged pleasantries with Queen Medusa.
They then gave some pills to Queen Medusa, and the two began their cultivation.
The next day, Wang Chen Queen Medusa got up early and headed towards the so-called Volcano Secret Realm.
The time when the rumored Fire Volcano Secret Realm was about to open was fast approaching, and Wang Chen naturally wouldn't miss it.
In a normal instance, the timing might be slightly earlier or later.
However, since there is a mastermind behind it all, this situation is unlikely to occur.
After all, only by corroborating the rumors can people be more convinced of this so-called Volcano Secret Realm.
Thus achieving a purpose unknown to others.
With Wang Chen Queen Medusa's combined strength, it wouldn't take them long to reach their so-called destination.
Of course, this was done in order to avoid attracting attention and alerting the enemy.
Wang Chen Queen Medusa didn't make a big fuss, instead choosing a normal way to travel.
We drove there from the ground.
They didn't use the kind of Battle Qi Wings that are easily recognizable, or the kind of hovering in the void.
Fortunately, the so-called Volcano Secret Realm was not far from Volcano City, and Wang Chen and his group arrived there in less than three hours.
What appeared before Wang Chen was a large, sunken basin.
At the very center of the basin, there is a raised, round opening.
It is approximately 250 meters in diameter.
This is a dormant underground volcanic vent.
There were no particularly vibrant green plants around this basin.
Most of them are brown and gray.
As for the magical beasts that lived here, they had long been killed by the experts who rushed over from all around.
Around this basin, groups of three or five skilled fighters were gathered, some standing and some sitting.
Wang Chen glanced at them briefly and found that there were over five hundred people at the Da Dou Shi level or above.
The number of those at the Dou Ling level also exceeds double digits.
There was even a Dou Wang.
Although he was only a One-Star Dou Wang.
However, even within this area, it still stands out from the crowd and attracts considerable attention.
Seeing this, Wang Chen did not step forward. Queen Medusa, shrouded in black robes, stood quietly at the edge of the basin, waiting for the unexpected to happen.
"This is getting interesting. They've even managed to seduce Dou Wang."
"I wonder what cards that mastermind has up their sleeve."
After seeing the Dou Wang, Wang Chen felt even more confident about his gains this time.
After all, if they dared to lure even Dou Wang, the mastermind behind it must have a way to deal with it.
Otherwise, it would be like doing all the work for someone else's benefit.
This means that the mastermind behind it all must possess some special treasures.
This is indeed very good news for Wang Chen.
Who knows, we might unexpectedly find some treasures.
People kept coming from all around the basin, further increasing the already large number of people.
Of course, those who arrived later also mostly chose a spot and waited for the so-called Volcano Secret Realm to open.
No one caused any trouble or conflict at this time.
After all, it's not even certain whether there's any treasure, and if we start risking our lives now, what if the Volcano Secret Realm doesn't appear in the end? Wouldn't all our efforts be in vain?
Wang Chen Queen Medusa, because they occupied sufficiently peripheral positions, did not encounter the situation described in the novel.
Everyone waited quietly.
In a small village Volcano City, there is a hidden underground Secret Chamber.
"The situation is now somewhat beyond what was expected."
Four masked men in black robes were engaged in a heated exchange.
"It's not a big problem."
"He's just a Dou Wang, and a 1-Star Dou Wang at that."
With that treasure left by our ancestors, eliminating a Dou Wang shouldn't be too difficult."
"I know, what if other experts arrive later?"
The three men in black robes sitting on the left and right sides engaged in a heated verbal exchange.
"Bang!"
Upon seeing this, the black-robed man sitting at the very top also slammed his foot heavily on the ground.
The cane made a loud sound as it hit the ground.
Seeing this, the other three finally stopped their heated argument.
"Alright!
Now that we've come this far, there's no turning back.
Either the plan succeeds, allowing us to obtain the treasures left by our ancestors and revive their glory.
Either the plan fails, and we all go to meet our ancestors.
The leader, a man in black robes, spoke emphatically.
These words made the three people who had just been exchanging heated words lower their heads in shame.
"Besides, given our current situation, if we don't take a gamble, what's the difference between us and someone dying a slow death?"
"Everyone proceeded according to the original plan."
However, we must start now; we can't wait any longer.
"If a few more experts come, I'm afraid we really have no hope."
"Clear."
After the exchange, the four men in black robes began to move.
In a special basin Volcano City, Wang Chen suddenly opened his eyes.
"This thing definitely has a problem!"
Just as he closed his eyes to rest, the Broken Jade in his Storage Ring suddenly burst out with light, trying to break free from the Storage Ring.
However, it was powerless against the Heavenly Demon Puppet, which was at the level of Half-Saint.
It could only remain quietly in the palm of the Half-Saint Heavenly Demon Puppet.
Wang Chen's ability doesn't mean that others have the same skill.
The Broken Jade was deliberately released, so it's impossible that Wang Chen was the only one with this Broken Jade.
Suddenly, Broken Jade, large and small, shot out from the crowd gathered in the basin.
Apart from the small piece in Wang Chen's hand, there are a total of thirty-five pieces.
The Broken Jade rapidly gathered in mid-air, merging and rotating.
Everyone stared in disbelief, but no one dared to cause any damage; they simply waited quietly.
At the same time, they maintained maximum vigilance towards the outside world.
Wang Chen also stared thoughtfully at the Broken Jade in the sky.
After all the treasures were combined, they arrived above the dormant underground volcano in the middle of the basin.
Instantly, a strong crimson light enveloped the crater.
"Call out!"
About twenty seconds later, the crimson light dissipated, and the original Broken Jade also disappeared.
Only the original crater has been transformed into a spatial entrance emitting a faint black light.
The sudden change left everyone present hesitant and uncertain.
No one dared to be the first to attempt that seemingly extremely dangerous Spatial Channel.
At this moment, Wang Chen also summoned the Half-Saint Heavenly Demon Puppet, instructing it to remember the aura of this entrance.
Normally, Heavenly Demon Puppet wouldn't have this ability.
However, with the enhancement of Wang Chen's Golden Finger, coupled with the presence of a piece of Broken Jade from the entrance, this was no longer impossible.
Just as Wang Chen had finished arranging his escape route and was about to investigate the Spatial Channel, an ordinary-looking young man suddenly stepped forward.
"This must be the Volcano Secret Realm."
"First come, first served! I'm going first!"
With that, he jumped right in.
Those who were initially hesitant no longer lingered and began rushing toward this so-called Volcano Secret Realm.
And the speed is getting faster and faster.
In less than three minutes, fewer than twenty people remained scattered around the area.
Among them were Wang Chen Queen Medusa.
They weren't in too much of a hurry.
The main issue is that the previous situation was just too coincidental.
No one dared to be the first to speak up, but one person immediately jumped out.
This caused all the people who were still waiting to rush in.
Even if some people felt there might be a problem, others didn't dare to waste time.
No one entered, and one person entered; these are two completely different concepts.
Everyone fears encountering danger, but everyone also fears being a step behind.
Without the crowds, Wang Chen leisurely approached the entrance and carefully sensed the surroundings with his Soul Power.
Although his Dou Qi level wasn't particularly high, his soul level was definitely quite impressive.
Even Dou Zun might not be stronger than him in terms of soul realm.
Let's go.
After carefully sensing the situation for a while and confirming that he had a backup plan, Wang Chen didn't waste any more time.
This treasure hunt process is quite interesting.
Especially considering the presence of a mastermind behind this.
If the mastermind behind this all comes out, Wang Chen will immediately step in and interrupt them when they are feeling smug.
Just thinking about it is exciting.
"Whoosh!"
Wang Chen Queen Medusa jumped directly into the spatial entrance and disappeared into the basin.
The remaining people did not follow suit, but instead used their own methods to contact their own factions.
"Nobody's here!"
Wang Chen, holding Queen Medusa's hand, scanned their surroundings.
Previously, when entering the Spatial Channel, the spatial power of the secret realm attempted to teleport Wang Chen Queen Medusa separately.
However, Wang Chen's Soul Power directly interfered, causing a slight error in the teleportation.
Wang Chen Queen Medusa surveyed their surroundings.
This is a not-too-large square, with a gate in front that looks like it's made of obsidian.
There was nothing else besides that.
Of course, with Wang Chen's soul perception ability, he was also able to detect the Spatial Barrier that existed around the plaza.
It appears to be an infinitely large plaza, but its boundaries have actually been defined by Spatial Barrier.
It's just that most people can't see it.
After more than two minutes of sensing, Wang Chen was absolutely certain that there was nothing else in the square.
Wang Chen Queen Medusa then walked up to the Obsidian Gate, preparing to examine it.
Since there is no other way out, the only option is to open this door.
As Wang Chen's gaze descended, the exact appearance of the gate was completely revealed to Wang Chen.
The gate is quite simple and pure.
Apart from the flame patterns around the gate, there is only a model of a volcano on the entire gate.
The center of the gate divides the flame model in two.
Wang Chen's Soul Power surged forth and descended upon the gate, beginning its investigation.
However, as time went by, Wang Chen's brows furrowed slightly.
It wasn't that he sensed any special information; rather, he couldn't perceive any problem at all.
This Obsidian Gate appears to be just an ordinary gate.
