Chapter 1421: Chapter 698: Seven-Colored Spiritual Pearl!
The battle between the two sides grew increasingly intense, with spiritual power fluctuations within the cave residence so violent it seemed to tear the space apart.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang, relying on their seamless cooperation and formidable strength, gradually gained the upper hand.
Finally, with a brilliant collaboration, Luo Chen and Qing Shuang successfully broke through the enemy’s formation, defeating all those cultivators.
The leader of the cultivators, seeing the tide turning against them, could only retreat with his defeated troops in disgrace.
After the battle ended, although Luo Chen and Qing Shuang appeared slightly fatigued, they felt more excitement and a sense of achievement.
They exchanged a smile and continued to explore the cave residence.
However, when they went to search for the opportunities within the cave residence.
They discovered that the books placed there seemed to be just ordinary books.
And those glowing spiritual artifacts had long since been damaged.
"Sigh."
Luo Chen couldn’t help but sigh.
"How is this possible?"
Qing Shuang stared incredulously at the empty stone platform, where the expected secret manuals and magical treasures turned out to be mere illusions.
Luo Chen frowned, scanning around in an attempt to find clues.
"There must be something odd about this cave residence, let’s search again carefully."
The two began meticulously searching the cave residence, leaving no corner unchecked.
After some effort, Luo Chen discovered a seemingly ordinary stone wall deep within the cave, with some obscure symbols carved upon it.
"Qing Shuang, come take a look at this."
Luo Chen called Qing Shuang over.
When Qing Shuang leaned in for a closer look, these symbols, although difficult to decipher, seemed to contain some ancient power.
"This looks like some kind of ancient runes."
Luo Chen nodded, closing his eyes and slowly infusing the stone wall with the Star Force.
As the Star Force seeped in, the symbols on the stone wall began to emit a faint glow, gradually revealing a hidden mechanism.
"It seems this is the key to accessing the real treasure vault."
Luo Chen said.
A glint of excitement passed through Qing Shuang’s eyes, knowing the true test was just beginning.
Luo Chen gently pressed the mechanism, and the stone wall moved slowly, revealing a staircase leading downward.
The two exchanged a glance and cautiously descended the stairs.
At the bottom of the stairs was a secret chamber, with an ancient stone coffin placed in its center.
The stone coffin was surrounded by various strange runes, emitting a faint luminescence.
"Could there be treasure inside this stone coffin?" Qing Shuang asked curiously.
Luo Chen didn’t answer, stepping forward to closely observe the runes on the stone coffin.
These runes seemed to be some ancient seal meant to protect the items within the stone coffin.
"Be careful, don’t act recklessly." Luo Chen reminded.
Qing Shuang nodded, aware that many treasures within the cultivation realm came with dangers, and any mistake could bring disaster.
Luo Chen began attempting to break the seal, cautiously guiding the Star Force to the runes, trying to find the seal’s weakness.
As the Star Force seeped in, the runes gradually dimmed until they completely disappeared.
The lid of the stone coffin slowly opened, and a rich spiritual energy rushed out.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang held their breath, peering into the stone coffin.
Inside lay an ancient skeleton, clutching a pearl shimmering with seven-colored light in its hand.
This pearl seemed to contain boundless power, inspiring awe.
"Could this be the legendary Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl?"
Qing Shuang exclaimed.
Luo Chen nodded, having heard tales of the Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl, which was said to help cultivators break through bottlenecks, even with the power to resurrect the dead.
"We’ve found the real treasure."
Luo Chen said, his eyes sparkling with excitement.
However, just as they were about to retrieve the Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl, a sudden rush of footsteps came from the secret chamber’s entrance.
Immediately after, a group of men in black barged in, wielding various magic artifacts, with greedy glints in their eyes.
"Haha, it seems we arrived just in time." The leader of the men in black sneered.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang felt a pang of tension, realizing the situation seemed to have grown more troublesome.
"What should we do?"
Qing Shuang asked with a slightly nervous expression.
Luo Chen took a deep breath, calmly analyzing the current situation.
He knew that facing these uninvited guests, they had to remain calm, or all their efforts would be wasted.
"Let’s not act rashly; let’s see what exactly they want first."
Luo Chen whispered to Qing Shuang.
The leader of the men in black stared greedily at the Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl within the stone coffin, with the others beside him also showing greedy expressions.
Clearly, they were determined to obtain the Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl.
"Hand over the pearl, and we might consider letting you leave alive." The leader of the men in black threatened.
Luo Chen and Qing Shuang exchanged a glance, aware that they had gone through great hardships to find the Seven-Colored Spirit Pearl and would never give it up easily.
"Why should we trust you?" Qing Shuang retorted.
The leader of the men in black sneered, saying, "Because we outnumber you, and our strength is enough to leave nothing of you behind."
Luo Chen knew that the only solution now was to fight.
He whispered to Qing Shuang, "Are you ready?"
Qing Shuang nodded, prepared for the fight.
Suddenly, Luo Chen erupted with a powerful surge of Star Force, gleaming starlight surrounding him, and a forceful aura burst forth.
Qing Shuang quickly followed, her magic artifact radiating brightly, blue light shooting towards the men in black like swords.
The men in black were clearly caught off guard by Luo Chen and Qing Shuang’s sudden assault, momentarily flustered.
