Death Sutra - Chapter971

The human world had the existence of the Ten Great Ancient Divine Instruments. The land in the Monster Domain was much vaster, so it wasn't strange for items that weren't inferior to the Divine Instruments to appear. So, after landing on the island, I became excited. I told the Spirit Snake what to do and started to search around the island.

From afar, I could sense the powerful energy ripples. After standing on the island, the ripples became even more intense. However, what was strange was that as I walked around the island, I sensed the ripples of energy. However, after walking for a long time, the ripples didn't change at all.

Usually, no matter if it was a person or a treasure, this kind of power fluctuation should come from a single point. The fluctuations would gradually weaken, so I could determine the location. However, the fluctuations didn't change at all. I couldn't help but be suspicious. Could it be that this power was so strong that I couldn't differentiate the strong from the weak?

Or could it be that the entire island was a huge treasure?

With doubts in my heart, I quickly met up with the Spirit Snake on the other side of the island. He was just as surprised as I was. He didn't try to guarantee that the Dragon race was naturally sensitive to treasures. He just waved his hand at me and said that he couldn't find the location of the treasure.

I didn't say anything but squatted down to observe the ground under my feet. It was normal soil, grass, and trees. There was nothing special about it.

After a short moment, I activated my monster power and dug a huge hole. The hole was filled with soil, grass, and roots. Since it was close to the shore, there was a lot of seawater flowing out.

There was nothing special about it.

I didn't give up and activated my monster power to dig again. However, I bumped into a hard layer of rock. I only scraped some soil, revealing a black reef.

It seemed that there wasn't any problem with the island. I had to think about it from another angle.

I waved my sleeves and filled the hole with the soil that I had just dug up. Just as I was about to leave, I suddenly realized that something was wrong.

Islands were usually made of large reefs. The reefs had been eroded by the seawater, so they were much harder than normal rocks. However, with my current cultivation, not to mention reefs, even if it was metal or iron, it would only shatter when I grabbed it.

Although I didn't use much monster power when I grabbed the hole the second time, it wasn't something that a normal reef could resist. This rock was strange!

With this thought in mind, I turned around and dug the hole I had just filled. I carefully observed the reef.

The snake spirit saw my actions and asked excitedly, "Did you find any clues?"

I nodded but didn't speak to him. I pointed at the black stone below and said, "Dig out the stone below."

The snake spirit was a little skeptical. It turned to look at the stone in the pit and scratched its head. "What's wrong with this stone? Is it the treasure here?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his arm and touched it. "It's just an ordinary stone. It doesn't look like a treasure. There's nothing strange about it."

He asked subconsciously, but his hands didn't stop moving. His arms pushed against both sides of the pit, widening the layer of sand on top of the rock by a few meters. Then, he changed his direction and pushed the front and back several meters.

After doing that, he screamed in surprise, "Why is this stone so big?"

The pit had become a few meters wide under the effect of the snake spirit, who was a human bulldozer. However, the reef below was still a big piece of black rock. It didn't show any signs of revealing its edge.

The snake spirit was a little impatient. It didn't push the soil around anymore. Instead, it raised its arm and turned its right palm into a dragon claw. It clawed at the rock in an attempt to pull it out.

With the power of its dragon claw, it could even make five holes in a piece of steel. However, when it faced the huge rock, it only made a crisp sound before returning. I lowered my head and saw that there wasn't even a scratch on the rock.

The snake spirit finally reacted. It wasn't discouraged and turned to look at me in surprise. "Haha, this rock is really a treasure!

It can take my claw without leaving a scratch. It's definitely something good! "

After he said that, he continued to push the soil around. I shook my head and stopped him. I jumped into the pit and placed my hand on the black rock. I closed my eyes and sensed for a while, but I didn't find anything. Then, I turned my palm towards the side of the pit and activated my monster power. Instantly, a palm-sized hole was created in the sand. My monster power surged through the hole while my spirit sense followed behind it.

The loose sand on the island naturally didn't obstruct my Monster power. Very quickly, my Monster power circled around the island in the layer of sand. My spiritual sense, which was following behind, confirmed that the black boulder under the sand really covered the entire island.

It seemed that my speculation was right. The entire island was the treasure that the snake spirit and I were searching for!

I frowned again. What is this thing? Why is it so big?

Also, my spirit sense had already scanned the entire rock, but I didn't find anything. I tried to use my spirit sense to invade its interior, but it didn't work.

After briefly explaining the situation to the Snake Spirit, he too fell into a state of shock. However, this guy was a big-hearted master. It didn't take long for him to roll his eyes and come up with an idea.

"Let's not care about what kind of treasure it is. I think we should attack it together and bombard it. There will definitely be some movement. We can make a decision then."

When faced with an unknown object, directly attacking it was obviously not a very good choice. It might even invite some kind of disaster.

However, we had studied it for a long time and still hadn't found anything. We might as well give the snake spirit's suggestion a try.

Moreover, with our power, even if we encountered a Monster Emperor, we would be able to escape. Thus, I nodded and agreed with the snake spirit's suggestion.

The snake spirit grinned strangely and leaped into the air. He gathered his strength and spat out a mouthful of dragon flame at the pit.

It was an ability that the snake spirit had obtained after reaching the Yang God realm. The white-hot dragon flame didn't only contain great power, but it also contained terrifying power that could melt everything.

The snake spirit used the dragon flame for more than a minute before stopping. He descended from the air and asked me anxiously, "I wouldn't melt the treasure, right? That would be a big loss."

At this time, the size of the pit had expanded several times. Under the Serpent Spirit's Dragon Flame, the surrounding sand had even melted, forming many crystal-like things. However, the black boulder in the pit had not changed at all. It was still buried deep underground.

After the snake spirit muttered, he noticed the situation and stopped talking. He turned to me and said, "It seems that it's a good treasure. Go and try it."

I wasn't as exaggerated as the snake spirit. I just stood next to the pit and activated all of my power at the late stage of the breakthrough. I gathered it in my palm and formed a colorless ball of light. Then, I activated the ball of light and slowly placed it on the black rock.

There was no sound. After the ball of light touched the black rock, it immediately turned into a layer of light and spread out on the surface of the black rock. Only when it touched the soil around the pit did a deafening sound come out. The soil and the lake water in the distance seemed to have experienced a violent earthquake. The entire island was completely shaken. However, just like before, the black rock stayed quietly under the soil and did not move at all.

We kept silent for a while. Then, the snake spirit spoke first, "What should we do?

It can't be an indestructible rock, right?

Could it be a meteorite from outer space?

It doesn't seem to be of any use. "

I agreed with the snake spirit's opinion, but I still felt that something wasn't right. After pondering for a while, I opened my mouth and spat out the Xuan Yuan Sword.

The Xuan Yuan Sword was the sharpest weapon I knew. If I activated the Xuan Yuan Sword and the black rock didn't move, I wouldn't be able to do anything.

Once again activating my cultivation, the Xuan Yuan Sword instantly emitted a bright light. After gathering all of my power, I raised the Xuan Yuan Sword and was about to stab downwards. However, before the Xuan Yuan Sword could enter the pit, there was a violent sound from my surroundings. Immediately after, the earth shook and the mountains shook. The commotion was several times stronger than when I activated my Monster power.
