Finally, Xin Yun approached the bottom of the gorge and looked out to see a hazy Rainbow Radiance emitting from the position at the bottom of the gorge. On seeing this scene, Xin Yun couldn't help but inhale sharply, "My god... Is this! Is this what they call the treasure?"
The stones that could emit Rainbow Radiance were definitely not ordinary. Ever since discovering the stones that emitted Five-Colored Radiance, Xin Yun had always been suspicious, wondering whether the so-called Immortal Stones really existed in this world! As everyone knows, the light emitted by Immortal Stones is rainbow-colored! They are more advanced than Spirit Stones and are ford by Innate Spiritual Qi condensed from the chaotic airflows.
However, Immortal Stones in this world were extrely rare—so rare that Xin Yun, who had lived in this world for two lifetis, had never heard of them, not to ntion seen them until now.
The entire Great Earth Fissure was tens of thousands of miles long, shaped like a giant S. From the surface, the fissure seed to have a consistent width of about ten ters. But in reality, the bottom of the fissure was not flat.
Overall, the enemy at the bottom of the fissure ford a V-shape, shallower on both sides and deeper in the middle. At this mont... Xin Yun, having made his way here, had actually reached the bottom of the V-shape, where only here had a cluster of Rainbow Immortal Stones condensed!
As the distance closed, Xin Yun could finally see clearly those gemstones emitting Rainbow Radiance. Upon closer inspection, the gemstones were not transparent, each only the size of a palm, radiating Rainbow Radiance, and at a glance, one could tell they were prized items.
At this mont, millions of gemstones lay at the bottom of the water like rubbish, emitting a splendid Rainbow Radiance, piling up into a small mound. They did not need mining and could be directly collected, as if soone had mined and piled them up here.
As the Immortal Stones drew closer, Xin Yun breathed excitedly. It was at that mont, amidst a splashing water sound, that Xin Yun was stunned to find that Yinglong had broken free from the aquatic environnt and appeared in a strange space.
Startled, he looked around. Thousands of ters above the bottom of the water, there was not a single trace of wetness to be found. The entire space seed to be propped up by the Rainbow Radiance, preventing the water above from descending!
"How... How is this possible!" On seeing this scene, Xin Yun couldn't help but cry out. This was too terrifying! How deep was this place? How great was the water pressure? What kind of force could possibly support such heavy water?
Moreover, what Xin Yun found most incomprehensible was, if this water were being supported by so force, then why could he enter? Could that force actually discriminate? Keeping the water out, but allowing Xin Yun to co down?
Full of doubts, Xin Yun cautiously drove Yinglong downwards, descending into the void. A distance that was very close and would normally take only a few seconds to cross took Xin Yun a full minute to traverse.
"Crack..." Finally, Yinglong's feet gently tread upon the pile of Immortal Stones. Looking around, nothing had changed. What on Earth was going on? And... were all these Immortal Stones the so-called treasure?
With a slight stir of thought, Xin Yun instructed Yi Luo Xiang to be careful, and then... he produced the Chaos Cauldron. Opening wide, a black vortex spun at the mouth of the cauldron, generating a trendous pulling force, sweeping towards the surrounding Immortal Stones.
Under the powerful gravitational force, all of the Immortal Stones detached from the ground, transforming into streaks of Rainbow Radiance and poured into the Chaos Cauldron. These Immortal Stones were already Innate items and did not need to be refined. The only reason for being sucked into the cauldron was for the convenience of storage; only the Chaos Cauldron on Xin Yun could accommodate all the Rainbow Immortal Stones!
Accompanied by the devouring of the Chaos Cauldron, the large pile of Immortal Stones visibly dwindled. Although it ford a small mound, as the Immortal Stones successively entered the mouth of the cauldron, Xin Yun regretfully found that there was just a layer of them, and beneath that, there was actually a pyramid-shaped terrace. Hence, the number of Immortal Stones was not as abundant as he had imagined.
Soon, all the Immortal Stones had disappeared, and the stone platform that had been covered by the Immortal Stones gradually revealed itself. Upon a brief investigation, the number of Immortal Stones absorbed by the Chaos Cauldron was precisely 108,000, not one more, not one less. But why such a coincidence? Why exactly 108,000 stones?
Xin Yun didn't delve too much into this question, as his attention had already been captured by the pyramid-like structure of the terrace. What was this thing?
Upon close inspection, the terrace was neither gold, iron, nor bronze, but it was definitely made of so kind of tal. The volu was incredibly large, its surface covered with silt and dust, no longer revealing any specific patterns, but it was obvious that this was not just a stubborn rock.
Controlling Yinglong, Xin Yun cautiously circled around the terrace. After observing for a while, Xin Yun finally concluded that this thing did not resemble a pyramid at all; rather, it looked like the base of a pyramid that only had one half, lacking the top part. To be more precise, it resembled a Great Seal!
The first reason it didn't seem like a pyramid was that only half of it was present, as though the upper half of the pyramid had been chopped off. Secondly, the slope was much steeper than that of a pyramid, at about 75 degrees, not the approximate 50 degrees of a pyramid.
As for the size, it wasn't much different— the entire tal structure stood over fifty ters tall, with a square base, and each side approximately one hundred ters long. However, it seed that there was a portion buried beneath the dirt below, and the exact height and side length were still unknown.
