The body slowly sank into the mud hole, and the muddy water flowing around it released a strange suction force.
The fall did not take long. After ten breaths, Gu Chen landed in a dark space.
A pair of golden eyes could see clearly in the darkness. The ground was filled with endlessly rolling mud, with bubbles rising in some places and swirling in other places, turning some unknown objects out of the water.
If you look carefully, you will find that the unknown objects are skeletons, including those of wild beasts, both human and alien.
Gu Chen's expression became condensed when he saw this. He came to look for the patriarch and elders of the Hidden Dragon Clan. If they were all dead, then his work would have been in vain.
He looked around and found that there was no other source here, and it was surrounded by solid rock walls.
Gu Chen estimated that he should be thousands of feet deep underground at the moment. This place did not appear to be naturally formed. It was probably a hollow sphere dug into the rock formation by someone.
It's really weird to carve out such a large space and see nothing but a pool of muddy water, let alone the legendary massive treasures.
Also, there is only one entrance to the mud hole in this place. Where did so many corpses come from?
Gu Chen was puzzled and walked on the water, trying to find other secret entrances and exits.
Soon, he searched the surrounding area and even dived into the muddy water, but did not find anything unusual.
This place does not seem to be as dangerous as Ren Yin described, and the Yinlong clan leader and elders are nowhere to be seen.
Gu Chen even paid attention to the skeletons in the muddy water, but did not find any bones that were suspected to be hidden dragons.
"That's weird, is that guy lying?"
Gu Chen frowned. Without any discovery, he had no choice but to go back first and then make plans.
He was about to return along the original path, and when he raised his head, his pupils suddenly shrank!
The mud hole where I just took him down is gone!
I don’t know when it disappeared without a trace!
"Interesting. Looks like you're in the right place."
Gu Chen sneered and looked around. At this moment, he no longer felt that he was the only one here.
Seeing nothing wrong with the naked eye, Gu Chen closed his eyes and stood on the muddy water, motionless as if in trance.
There was only the sound of mud churning all around, one after another, like the sound of waves.
After a long time, as if tired of the intruder's silence, a stream of mud turned into tentacles and silently spread towards Gu Chen's feet!
Whoosh!
In the darkness, Gu Chen suddenly opened his eyes, raised one foot, and dropped it heavily!
boom--
A terrifying concussive force spread around him, causing countless mud to splash up!
However, a strange scene occurred. All the splashing mud seemed to be alive, squirming in the air and surrounding Gu Chen!
Each ball of mud is not very fast, but it blocks all possible dodge directions in all directions!
"You want to trap me with such a trick?"
Gu Chen's face was expressionless, and all the secret energy in his body was transformed into fire-attribute energy at this moment.
Kowloon spits fire!
Nine shining fire dragons emerged from his body, bursting out with high temperatures and flames, instantly evaporating all the water in the incoming mud!
The evaporation of water in the mud caused layers of white mist, but the gravel in the mud turned into finer, white clay.
Countless small lumps of clay passed through the flames and adhered to Gu Chen's body with lightning speed!
Gu Chen looked shocked. He could feel a destructive force coming from the clay.
The next moment.
boom--
There was an explosion where Gu Chen was, and the dazzling light illuminated the entire dark space. The aftermath of the explosion pushed the mud against the surrounding rock walls, and it took a while before it gradually calmed down.
"Hehehe, I thought the people who came back this time would be stronger, but I didn't expect that they would be equally vulnerable."
The muddy water rolled and condensed, forming a terrifying ghost. Looking at the center of the explosion, it let out a terrifying laugh.
"Huh? No!"
Just as the ghost finished sighing, there was a bang, and his body was suddenly kicked to pieces and turned into mud and water splashing everywhere!
And where he was standing just now, Gu Chen appeared in tattered clothes, his eyes releasing a frightening light in the darkness.
The streamlined muscles of his body were completely exposed after the robe was broken. Golden light slightly overflowed from the pores on his body, and his black hair was flying wantonly, like a fierce god coming to the world!
"What kind of monster? So much explosive clay exploded at the same time, but not even a hair was hurt!"
Ten feet away, countless mud condensed into a ghost shadow. The ghost shadow took a breath and said in shock.
"No wonder I couldn't detect any breath before. It turns out that all the mud and water here are your incarnation."
Gu Chen stared at the ghost shadow indifferently. The other party's Taoist skills were very special, and the person was even more weird. He seemed to be able to completely abandon his flesh and blood body and turn into a swamp body.
It was precisely because he completely turned into mud and water that he lost the breath of life, so Gu Chen didn't notice it before.
"Hehehe, kid, where did you come from as a monster? I thought it was the Hidden Dragon Clan from outside who sent people in again, but you have nothing in common with them." Ghost Shadow asked curiously.
"I was invited by them to help. If you know what's going on, you'd better hand over all the clan leaders and elders of the Hidden Dragon Clan. I might be able to let you go."
The other party took the initiative to mention that the Hidden Dragon Clan was in line with Gu Chen's wishes. From his words, Gu Chen also understood that the previous Hidden Dragon Clan leader and others might have fallen into the hands of the other party.
He took the initiative to explain his purpose of coming, just in time to find out whether the leader of the Yinlong Clan and others were safe.
"It turns out they are reinforcements. It's a pity that you came a step too late. They are all dead." Ghost Shadow's eyes made of mud rolled around and he said teasingly.
Gu Chen's expression darkened, "If that's the case, then I can only take your body back to hand over!"
"Why are you so murderous? Is the Hidden Dragon Clan, a useless race that has been living in the swamp for a long time without seeing the light of day, worth your life for them?" Ghost Shadow said with a smile.
"What's the difference between you and them?" Gu Chen glanced at the ghost and said disdainfully.
Guiying's face suddenly froze and he explained, "I am different from them."
Gu Chen's words were meant to deceive him. He guessed a possibility from his expression and asked, "Are you the great thief Ni Bodhisattva?"
Ren Yin said that the Ni Bodhisattva just disappeared and no one was sure that he was dead.
And now that the other party appeared in the Clay Bodhisattva's treasure trove, and this place seemed to be quite old, it was hard for him not to make such a conjecture.
"Yes, I am the greatest mud thief Bodhisattva in the world!"
Hearing Gu Chen mention his name, Ni Bodhisattva replied proudly.
"The greatest thief in the world? If you have this ability, how could you end up hiding here to avoid your enemies?" Gu Chen teased.
