chapter 806 dying with eyes open

opening the jade case, a disgusting scent erupted. long chen and guo ran both jumped in fright, thinking that it was poison. they hastily shut their pores and shot back.

only then did they get a good look at what was inside. it was a fist-sized egg. but there were countless speckles on it, and the disgusting scent was coming from them.

“is this a housepet’s egg?” guessed guo ran.

“most likely. it’s just that it’s been too long.” long chen was speechless. that was unlucky. “throw this egg away. but the case should be a treasure.”

“alright.” guo ran really didn’t want to touch this thing. but since long chen said so, he went over and threw out the egg.

“fuck, you pig!” long chen suddenly fled upon seeing guo ran toss the egg beneath his feet.

the egg immediately grew in size upon leaving the case. it grew to several meters long, and it exploded upon striking the ground. a fecal-green liquid erupted like a bomb.

guo ran was immediately splashed by it. a nauseating scent crashed over him. despite sealing his pores, he still felt like he was about to vomit. this egg had existed for no one knew how long. that kind of scent wasn’t something just anyone could handle.

it was fortunate that long chen had fled fast enough, or he would also have been splashed. seeing guo ran just foolishly standing there, he cursed, “hurry up and start washing yourself!”

only then did guo ran react. he took out a bucket of water and began to crazily scrub. even once he was clean, that disgusting stench didn’t let up.

“boss, you couldn’t warn me?” guo ran switched his robes, but that stench was still present.

“are you a pig? would a housepet’s egg be just the size of a chicken egg? that case has huge runes on it. are you blind? even if you are, can’t you sense the spatial fluctuations? tch, i almost got pulled in because of you, and you still want to grumble at me?” said long chen without the slightest mercy.

without several days, there was no way that scent would disappear. now even long chen was affected.

traveling in the world while closing all the pores and sense of smell was essentially cutting one’s spiritual perception in half. doing it for a while might be acceptable, but doing it for too long was just courting death.

“heavens, it really is a treasure! i have a huge use for these runes!” guo ran suddenly saw the runes on the case, and his eyes lit up. he had definitely thought of another forging mechanism.

“tch, put it away. let’s go.” long chen brought guo ran away. long chen found quite a few deep holes in this area.

but those holes were from a long time ago. it seemed quite a few experts had searched this island before, which disappointed him. perhaps there weren’t many chances of obtaining any treasures here.

“there’s a jade case here.” long chen paused, sensing a jade case.

without wasting a moment, guo ran began digging. as guo ran dug, long chen looked around and couldn’t help but grumble.

“who said that? small eyes have their own benefits,” said long chen supportively.

“really? what benefits?”

“people with small eyes, no matter how they die, won’t die with their eyes open.”

“...”

“alright, let’s stop talking and just keep moving.”

in truth, long chen was also very excited to obtain the nine-color elk’s neidan. he always felt like he greatly owed his beauties. now he finally had a chance to send each of them a gift. they would definitely be incredibly delighted to gain the ability to retain their youth forever.

continuing forward, long chen kept his spiritual strength spread out while guo ran was in charge of digging. they quickly found seven more cases.

three of them contained weapons that had reached the middle grade enchanted level. but they were made through exquisite craftsmanship which made them much stronger than average weapons at that level.

they also obtained a secret tome that contained a water element magical art. it was directly stored in a spatial ring since it was essentially useless to them.

they also dug up another stinky egg. but with their experience last time, they handled it much better than before.

there were also two pills that were even more trash. although medicinal pills were precious, after all this time, those pills had lost their medicinal energy and were no more than shriveled lumps of garbage.

as they got deeper, long chen saw many powerful people. some were from the righteous path, some from the corrupt path, and there were also many experts from the ancient races. they were in groups, sometimes with more than ten people. they held strange tools as they searched for something.

long chen saw that those had to be tools to find treasure, which was why the previous people they had killed had been digging right over a jade case. after all, there weren’t many people who had spiritual strength as powerful as long chen and could explore hundreds of meters underground. and even if someone could, they would only be able to last for a few breaths before running out of spiritual strength.

long chen saw that these people came from every direction of the island, and they were all powerful figures.

they were all in groups. long chen’s group of two was actually the weakest. those groups were all carefully searching while on guard against enemy attacks.

the groups maintained a certain distance from each other. but long chen saw that quite a few people had begun to place their sights on him and guo ran.

some of the ancient race groups had several rank two celestials amongst them. it had to be known that the ancient races possessed bloodlines that made them unrivaled in the same realm.

long chen ignored them for now as he continued searching with his divine sense. he quickly found another two cases.

just as long chen and guo ran pulled up the second one, a group of people surrounded them.

“hand over all the treasures you’ve obtained and we’ll spare your lives.”
