Chapter 758: 758
In a forest deep in the mountains in Eight Divinities Territory .
There was a graveyard that couldn't be considered big, yet it had towering gravestones that had been eroded by the passing of time . Jiang Chen and Jiang Moliang were in the graveyard, looking all around .
"Are you sure that there is a precious treasure here?" Jiang Chen's Holy Awareness had already searched each corner of this place, but he hadn't discovered anything . Half a month had already passed since Beiliang City's matter, and during that time, they had cooperated and tried to steal the Jiang family's treasures .
However, the Jiang family had already taken precautions against them, and the defense of all treasure locations known by Jiang Moliang had been strengthened, thus they couldn't barge into any of them . As Jiang Chen was about to give up, Jiang Moliang had brought him here . They didn't see any formations, barriers, or even a person around . Jiang Chen found it difficult to believe that there really was a treasure there .
"Come here!" Jiang Moliang suddenly called him . Jiang Chen went over to her and stood with her before a gravestone . This gravestone was ten meters tall and had an intersecting sword and dagger at its peak . Moreover, a birth and death date as well as a name were recorded on it .
"Did you notice what's different about this one?" Jiang Moliang asked him . It seemed from her tone like she was testing Jiang Chen .
Jiang Chen swept his hand against the gravestone's surface . He said, "The words written on it are protruding . " Words were carved into the other gravestones, while this one was different, and he could clearly feel the words' outline with his fingers .
Jiang Moliang nodded and put her finger against the birth date and the name . Immediately after that, the square-shaped grave sank into the ground, and a flight of steps appeared .
"Let's go . " Jiang Moliang didn't explain anything and simply jumped into it .
Jiang Chen followed her and asked, "What's going on here?"
"Treasures belonging to big factions like the Jiang family aren't only the ones they have obtained . The family even records those they couldn't get . " Jiang Moliang explained, "For example, this place . It was discovered by the Jiang family inadvertently, but they still haven't gotten the treasures in it, so they don't really know what they are . "
"Why isn't anyone keeping watch over it?" Jiang Chen asked in confusion .
"Wouldn't it be better for it to be exposed like this? If I hadn't led you here, would you have found it by yourself?"
Jiang Chen mulled it over earnestly before he shook his head . This place was too remote, and even if someone landed here, he wouldn't manage to discover the gravestone's secret easily .
They were now walking in a dim underground place that was illuminated just by the flames' light . Jiang Chen quickly discovered that a tomb was below them . Many stone coffins were inside, and it seemed like they had once been rummaged through .
"Its exterior is quite ordinary, and we searched each corner of this place, but we didn't find anything valuable . " As she spoke, she brought him to the front of the tomb . There was an extremely spacious hall there, and three tall gravestones were in its center . Even after they had arrived, Jiang Chen still hadn't discovered anything unusual about the place .
After they went behind the gravestones, they found a steel gate in the wall . He didn't wait for Jiang Moliang to explain it to him . He immediately walked over to it . This gate was in the shape of a half sphere, and its edges were adorned with gold . The most eye-catching thing about it was the presence of six crystals embedded in different parts of the gate .
"There is surely a precious treasure behind this gate, but we don't know what it is . Even though the Jiang family used all its means, they still didn't manage to get in for some unknown reason," Jiang Moliang said .
Jiang Chen tried pushing it with his hand, but he discovered that it didn't budge by even an inch . What's more, it seemed like his power was absorbed by the iron gate . "Didn't you all try breaking it by force?" As Jiang Chen thought back about the Jiang family's usual conduct, he felt like they would surely not have waited until now .
"All attacks directed at the iron gate are absorbed by it, and it's also the case for the stone walls . "
