Chapter 437 - Pit and Palace
Jiang Chen was located in a giant pit.
He thought it was a pit because he could see minerals everywhere, and they were the crystals of fire dragon.
In the center, there was a giant pillar made of crystals of fire dragon in the form of a crystal cluster that would require several men to hold it from end to end.
The fireball became unnecessary, since the pillar was giving off a dazzlingly bright light.
Jiang Chen forgot about the spiritual monkey and went up to the pillar. Then he found what he had seen was only the tip of the iceberg. There were more crystals buried under the stone walls.
“Why are the crystals above the ground?”
Jiang Chen looked towards the passage while feeling pleasantly surprised.
Fortunately, Reaching Heaven States couldn’t fall to their deaths. Otherwise, it would be a silly way to die.
However, the tumbling brought him there faster.
Patting his clothes to get the dust off, he found he was in the middle of the pillar and the palace.
He suddenly couldn’t decide whether he should go for the source of crystals or approach the palace.
For the ancient people of the Dragon Dynasty, the source of crystals was only used as a building material to construct the back rooms, but here’s a palace. There must be some extremely valuable treasure in there.
Besides, there was a monkey overhead. Jiang Chen didn’t want to be tricked again.
He suddenly had an idea. He walked towards the pillar and repeated what he had done to dig towards the source of crystals.
In a moment, he switched his core of thunder on to the fullest. Covered by electricity, he heard the spiritual monkey receiving electric shocks once again, and this time, it had been paralyzed, thus it couldn’t run away.
“Wanted to fight against me. Huh.”
Jiang Chen turned around to grasp the spiritual monkey and switched off the electricity.
By then, the monkey’s hair had been burned black, smoking. The source of crystal in its hand fell onto the ground.
Squeak. Squeak.
The monkey squeaked in a weak voice while he put the two sources of crystals into the jade bracelet.
Jiang Chen was struck dumb. Spiritual animals were fragile, although they had special abilities.
The electric shocks had nearly killed the monkey.
It looked intelligent. Its big eyes, especially, reminded him of Whitty.
“Alas. Why did you have to bother me?”
Jiang Chen didn’t have the heart to see it like this. He injected some gentle energy into its body and gave it a pill.
“Go.”
He put the spiritual monkey on the ground and patted its little head. The monkey stood there, still at a loss. It raised its arms like a shy girl.
Jiang Chen ignored it and walked towards the palace, but the monkey bared its teeth and kept running back and forth in front of him.
“Something wrong?” Jiang Chen understood the monkey wanted to stop him. His curiosity was piqued.
The spiritual monkey apparently knew the underground world better than him.
It had tried to warn him with good intention. It meant the palace was dangerous.
Bang!
Right at this moment, a loud sound came from the other side of the pit. Someone had broken the mountain wall with brute force.
A team strode over in the flying dust.
What a bloody coincidence.
Jiang Chen recognized it as the Murongs’ team. He hurried to hide with the monkey.
