"Alright, this is the end. Everyone, search around for mechanisms. If there aren't any, then our guess was correct—the entrance to the main burial chamber isn't here."
Lin Chen gave the order.
Everyone nodded, and Lin Chen activated his X-ray vision to inspect the area. After looking for a while, however, he discovered that the rocks here were strange. His X-ray vision could only penetrate ten meters; beyond that, everything became blurry.
