Chapter 514: Chapter 514: Absorbing Dark Energy! _1
Brilliant golden lights shot towards the stone tablet!
“What are you doing?!” The man with the mustache suddenly became agitated.
He wanted to stop it but it was already too late.
The immense force made the stone tablet shake a bit! But it didn’t shatter!
“It’s so hard.” Ethan Smith couldn’t help but exclaim.
The man with the mustache breathed a sigh of relief. Patting his chest, he said, “My friend, you mustn’t mess around like this. The treasure isn’t hidden here.”
Ethan Smith glanced at the man with the mustache and asked, “If not here, then where?”
“Of course it’s somewhere nearby! You can tell you have no experience!” the mustached man mumbled.
He drew a circle on the stone tablet and said, “Who would engrave the hiding place of the treasure on a tablet? This is like hiding silver in plain sight!”
“You’re right!”
After the mustached man’s reminder, Ethan Smith came to his senses.
That is to say, the real hidden treasure of the Dragon Vein was not the herbs beneath the stone tablet?!
If that were the case, there was still more to gain from the Dragon Vein!
“My friend, you really can’t uproot this thing.” The mustached man took out his tools while grumbling.
It must be said, the mustached man’s tools were quite complete; anything imaginable, he nearly had.
“Why are you so afraid of pulling out this stone tablet?” Ethan Smith asked, puzzled.
The mustached man glared and said, “I came to find treasure, not to lose my life! What if there’s some dirty stuff under there? That’d be asking for trouble!”
Ethan Smith thought about it, and it seemed to make sense.
If the treasure hidden beneath the stone tablet wasn’t the real deal, there was no reason to take the risk.
But for Ethan Smith, dark energy was not a taboo, it was actually a holy object for his cultivation.
Therefore, Ethan Smith ignored the mustached man and gathered his strength before throwing another punch!
“Boom!”
Under this punch, the stone tablet finally started to loosen.
“Oh, my friend, why are you so stubborn?!” The mustached man dodged to the side while complaining.
Ethan Smith laughed, “Don’t worry, if there is any dirty stuff, I will protect you.”
The mustached man grumbled, “Protect me? I’m afraid there might be a nascent soul-stage monster underneath… ”
As he spoke, Ethan Smith punched again.
After three consecutive punches, the stone tablet could no longer withstand the pressure and fractured.
“Crack!”
With a crisp sound, the stone tablet shattered!
Another huge pit appeared before Ethan Smith’s eyes at this moment.
Compared to the huge pit of the Dragon Vein, this one seemed a lot shabbier.
There were no herbs, let alone cultivation skills.
At a glance, there was a pitch-black mirror inside, two bronze plaques, and a green hairpin.
Seeing this, the mustached man hurriedly ran over.
He stroked his mustache, his eyes sparkled as he examined these items non-stop.
Ethan Smith didn’t rush to pick items, but courteously said, “My friend, which one do you like?”
A cunning glint flashed in the mustached man’s eyes.
He coughed and said, “To be frank, I like that hairpin. I wonder if you’d let me have it?”
“Alright, the hairpin goes to you.” Ethan Smith waved his hand, and without a second thought, he collected the pitch-black mirror and bronze plaques.
The mustached man couldn’t help but stare in astonishment.
His eyes were fixed on the pitch-black bronze mirror.
“What’s wrong?” Ethan Smith laughed.
