"Rhubarb, wake up and get to work!"
Lu Chen packed up his belongings and led Rhubarb to join the treasure hunting army.
It was still daytime, but the sky was dark. After the large group left the city, they headed north in a mighty manner.
The Dongyue Imperial Family's team walked at the front, unafraid of a large group of people following behind them.
A man in a long robe held a compass in his hand, observing the location on the compass as he walked.
After walking for a while, he stopped, and the entire team stopped as well.
"It should be around here, but the treasure contains too much spiritual energy, so we can't narrow down the area for now." The man said.
"Zhai Kong, can you calculate the exact time of the treasure's birth?" Uncle Qin asked.
"Judging from the current celestial phenomenon, the treasure should be born within 24 hours!"
Uncle Qin nodded. They had already narrowed down the area to five square kilometers. Within this area, as long as the treasure appeared, they would know its location and act according to the situation.
Each of the four major forces had their own Oracles. Their calculations were almost the same. Therefore, they also occupied high ground and waited for the right opportunity to strike.
At this time, it was not only the Royal City's team that had arrived. More and more teams came from all directions, including some from other races.
Looking around, the plains in front of them were already packed with people. Everyone had set up camp, waiting for the treasure to appear.
Lu Chen and Rhubarb stood on top of a pile of rocks, staring at the crowd around them.
"So many …" Lu Chen shook his head, "Who knows how many experts there are. The treasure this time won't be easy to get."
Squatting, Lu Chen stroked Rhubarb's fur, "Rhubarb, even you can't determine the exact location?"
Rhubarb lowered his head and sniffed the ground, as if trying to determine the location of the treasure.
Then, Rhubarb suddenly raised his head and looked at a lake in the distance.
"Hmm? It can't be at the bottom of the lake, right? "Lu Chen asked curiously," Didn't you say it was nearby? That lake shouldn't be within the range. "
Rhubarb didn't make a sound and ran towards the lake.
Lu Chen hurriedly chased after him.
This unknown lake was some distance away from the location of the treasure predicted by the Oracles. There was no one around.
Although Lu Chen believed in Rhubarb's ability to find treasures, going against everyone's expectations still made him somewhat suspicious.
"Rhubarb, are you sure the treasure came from here?"
"Woof woof woof!"
"Hmm? You said there was something wrong here? "Lu Chen was a little surprised.
At this moment, a ripple suddenly appeared on the calm surface of the lake. Then, a large head emerged from the lake.
"Holy shit, a Demonic Beast?!" Lu Chen immediately perked up, but when he took a closer look, he realized that other than the head being a little bigger, it seemed somewhat familiar.
After thinking about it carefully, Lu Chen remembered. "Little Golden Carp?! It can't be you, right? "
The guy in the lake revealed a pair of big eyes and blinked. A voice sounded in Lu Chen's mind. "It's me, benefactor!"
"I could feel that the dog beside you was using its spiritual energy to search, so I lured it over. Fortunately, it found me."
Lu Chen's eyes widened. "It's really you? You, you've grown so big?! "
Speaking of which, it had only been a few months since Lu Chen last met the little golden carp, but judging from its head that was above the lake, it should be at least three to four meters long.
"Benefactor, it's too late to reminisce. Listen to me!"
"The treasure this time is very dangerous. It's not something that you can fight for."
Lu Chen was surprised. "You know what treasure it is?"
"Although I don't know exactly what it is, I can feel a dangerous aura at the bottom of the lake! Its strength is very terrifying! "
Lu Chen frowned. "No matter how terrifying it is, there are at least hundreds of thousands of people here, and their strength is very strong. Even if it's the Four Heavenly Kings of Magical Beasts, I'm afraid it will only be surrounded and beaten."
"Benefactor, that's not the strength of a Level Five …"
Lu Chen was right. There were too many masters here. While he was talking with the little golden carp, someone not far away had noticed something and seemed to be rushing over here.
"Someone is coming. I have to go! Benefactor, if you must fight for the treasure, make good use of the Clearwater Pearl, but … if possible, you should go … "The little golden carp seemed to be afraid of being discovered. When it saw someone approaching, it immediately dived into the lake and disappeared.
Before Lu Chen could react, three or four people had already arrived beside him.
They looked at Lu Chen strangely and then looked at the lake.
"En? Strange … Hey, kid, did some rare dragon species appear here just now? "
Lu Chen shook his head. "No."
"No?" Those few people were skeptical. "It is said that when a treasure appears, there will be a Black Gold Koi nearby. If you can catch the Black Gold Koi, then the value of the treasure on its body will not lose to any treasure!"
"Black Gold Koi, that is the rarest dragon species. Not to mention the treasure on its body, even if it doesn't, just a Black Gold Koi is priceless!"
Lu Chen thought in his heart. Could the little golden carp be the "Black Gold Koi" that they were talking about?
Whether it was or not, Lu Chen would not tell them anyway.
The little golden carp's strength was actually very strong. The last time Lu Chen caught it, he directly used Soul Body Unification. At that time, the little golden carp was still very small. If it was underwater, he was not sure if he could catch the little golden carp.
Now that the little golden carp had grown very big, Lu Chen believed that in the water, there were very few people who could catch it.
"I said no, that means no. I came here to pee. You guys even chased me here? If you think that I am lying to you, then go catch the Black Gold Koi yourself. "
Lu Chen said in a bad mood, then turned and left.
Those few people looked at each other. That guy came here to pee? This seemed to explain the ripples on the lake … If there was really a Black Gold Koi, he would not leave so easily.
Thinking that the lake had just been polluted by that guy, those few people suddenly lost their interest and could only leave resentfully.
Lu Chen had just left for a while, and the best position had been taken by others. Now, he was standing at the outermost edge.
He did not expect to meet the little golden carp here …
The more precious a treasure was, the more powerful the creature would be guarding it. For example, the Godly Demon Limitless Sword, but it was the strongest guardian of the ancient dragon race. Its strength was much stronger than that of the Third Heaven experts.
In this case, the little golden carp's warning should not be groundless.
Since that was the case, Lu Chen simply stood at the outermost edge of the predicted area. There were so many people in front of him, so he should be safe.
In addition, the little golden carp said that the key to snatching the treasure was the Clear Water Pearl … He did not know how to use it.
…
At night, the originally dusky sky quickly became pitch-black. The bonfires set up by the various teams could only illuminate a small area.
From afar, this plain was dotted with sparks of flames in the caves, like will-o '-the-wisps …
Only when lightning occasionally flashed through the dark clouds would it instantly illuminate the ground, and one could see a large number of treasure hunters gathered everywhere!
At this moment, the ground began to shake violently. For a moment, there were exclamations everywhere.
