Chapter 988 A Cave
Boom! Jared’s punch made a huge hole in the wall, but all it showed was even more iolite deep within. It seemed
like the wall was extremely thick.
He clenched his fists again. His spiritual energy flowed from his elixir field and gathered in his fists.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Jared didn’t hold back at all when he delivered the next three punches.
A single opening suddenly appeared after the third blow landed. A gust of fresh air flowed from that opening into
the tomb.
Splash… It was clear as day. That was the sound of water splashing, and there was even a faint glow from the other
side.
“T-There’s actually something else in here?”

Howard was ecstatic.
Jared led the way and was the first one to crawl through the opening. When he reached the other side, he realized
that the place was a cave. It was huge, and there was an underground river splashing against the rocks as it
flowed.
Droplets of light rained down from the top, so the place wasn’t dark at all.
“Huh… who would’ve thought that we’d end up in the mountains?”
Howard was extremely intrigued to see a cave of that size.
“Jared, come quick. What do you reckon this is?”
Just then, Colin shouted to Jared quickly as he pointed at the top of the cave.
Jared traced Colin’s finger and saw something at the top. Four chains that were as thick as human arms were
attached to a coffin that was hanging in the air. Everything was extremely old, so there was already a thick layer of
rust on those chains.
“Could that be the coffin of some emperor?” asked Howard as his eyes bulged. He stared for a moment before
asking, “Why would they put the coffin all the way over there, though? Do you think maybe there’s some sort of
treasure inside?”
Jared didn’t reply. Instead, he examined the coffin, then scanned his surroundings. A hypothesis crept up in his mind
as he did so.
The spiraling underground river was right under the coffin, and even after thousands of years, it was still flowing
unendingly. If someone were to view things from the coffin, they would see that the river was shaped like a dragon
that was constantly twisting its body.
“I’ll go check the coffin out.”
Howard couldn’t resist the temptation, and he wanted to check the coffin out.
Before he could, however, Jared stopped him. “Let’s be careful, Howard. I get the feeling that there is something
strange going on in this cave.”
“Jared, aren’t you worrying a little too much? The only thing in this otherwise empty cave is that coffin.”
Howard had looked around, but he didn’t see anything there.
Just as Jared was about to reply, a few more men showed up in the cave. It was Edgar and the others, who had left
earlier.
When Edgar saw the coffin hanging on top, his face lit up with excitement. “I knew it. There is more to that tomb.
Thank the heavens we didn’t leave.”

What a bunch of useless garbage you guys are.”
Edgar’s expression darkened upon hearing that, but he didn’t bother arguing with the guy. Instead, he kept his eyes
on the coffin.
Unfortunately, both Jared and Howard were present, so Edgar didn’t dare to make any sudden moves or go check
the coffin out.
Just as everyone had their guards up, a series of footsteps came to them. Warren and the rest of the crowd showed
up behind an enormous boulder.
“Hahaha, Mr. Henckle was right. There is more to the tunnel.”
Warren laughed in excitement when he saw the huge cave.
Jared and the others, on the other hand, laughed boisterously when they saw Warren and the others.
Howard, in particular, didn’t bother hiding his amusement. “Oh my gosh, what happened to you old farts? Why are
you all shirtless?”
Warren and the others were a little disheveled. They had lost their shirts, and signs of exhaustion were all over
them. It was clear they had gone through something challenging to get here.
