Chapter 436 - Spiritual Monkey
Murong Long was in a tight corner. His freely flowing hair smelled burnt, the spiritual suit he wore a mess.
Doing nothing but staring down after flying into the air, he was waiting for Jiang Chen to appear. Once he saw the latter, he would kill him directly.
Everything had been burned on the hill, and the fire was gradually extinguishing, but still, Jiang Chen hadn’t appeared.
“It was a tactical formation of an indiscriminate attack. He must be dead.”
“Probably. He intended to die along with Murong Long.”
“Anyhow, Murong Long is one of the top three of the Dragon Rise List. How would he have been killed so easily?”
Ying Wushuang’s skin was as smooth as jade. In the ruddy firelight, she looked as if she was wearing clothes made of sunlight.
Still, he wouldn’t let his guard down. He walked down carefully.
Leading underground, the staircase had 100 steps. When Jiang Chen stepped off the last stair, before him was only darkness, which he had expected.
And he could hear wind blowing, which meant it was spacious here.
He created a ball of fire to float five yards in front of him, helping him explore the way.
He was situated in a long passage. There were excellent frescoes on the walls whose ornamental value hadn’t been damaged by the muted colors.
Jiang Chen was appreciating these frescoes as he advanced.
He soon had a shocking finding.
It turned out that the whole small world hadn’t been built for the elimination of the dynasty.
It had already existed in the prime of the Dragon Dynasty and been used as a secondary palace.
At the time of its elimination, the dynasty had moved all kinds of treasure here and hid it everywhere.
“What did I say? It’s so weird to build so many houses just to hide treasure. And this place doesn’t look like an imperial mausoleum at all,” said Jiang Chen.
“What did I say? It’s so weird to build so many houses just to hide treasure. And this place doesn’t look like an imperial mausoleum at all.”
Jiang Chen’s hair stood on end as a miserable voice repeated his words.
Most importantly, it had come from behind him, the voice less than a yard away from him. He could even feel its chilling breath.
Jiang Chen drew his sword out as quickly as possible and struck behind him.
But he hit nothing. Nothing was there.
“What’s wrong? Was it an illusion?” Jiang Chen didn’t understand. He moved the fire ball back in front of him, but still, he didn’t see anything.
“What’s wrong? Was it an illusion?”
However, the voice came again, and closer, as if it was right behind his back.
Jiang Chen switched on the armor of thunder. Covered in electricity, he looked brighter than a fireball.
Tss! Tss!
Almost at the same time, Jiang Chen heard something being shocked by electricity right behind him.
When he looked back, he saw a figure jump onto the wall, fleeing rapidly.
A spiritual monkey?
Pleasantly surprised, Jiang Chen relaxed.
This kind of spiritual animals wasn’t very dangerous. They were common in places with buried treasure.
Wherever there were spiritual monkeys, there was valuable treasure. Mimicking human voices was one of the characteristics of spiritual monkeys.
Almost without hesitation, Jiang Chen followed it as quickly as he could, but the spiritual monkey ran faster. Moving here and there, its body didn’t look real at all.
It disappeared at the end of the passage, and Jiang Chen found himself located in a wider space.
He was petrified when he confirmed what he was seeing.
