Chapter 293: Chapter 294: Time Brings Great Changes to the WorldMu Can, having obtained a treasure, was in high spirits. With a bead in one hand and a treasure knife in the other, he continued his grand undertaking of digging holes. Spiritual Power constantly flowed into the Treasure Bead, and Mu Can hoped to make use of the bead in the shortest time possible to cope with any crises that might arise later on. After unearthing the first treasure, Mu Can dug with even more vigor. He had learned from Wang Cai that the spheres of light emitted by the Qiankun Compass were a strange substance capable of predicting the presence of treasures within a certain range. This meant that each strand of light that dispersed and fell to the ground could potentially indicate the location of a treasure. This was where Wang Cai’s ingenuity lay. Since it was not possible to identify the Array Eye of the Big Formation, he took the opposite approach. Since the Array Eye was definitely a treasure, divining the location of a treasure would yield the same result as detecting the Array Eye. However, what Wang Cai did not expect was that there would be so many divined locations, many of which were already empty. Wang Cai guessed that treasures must have existed in these places before, but for some unknown reason, they had disappeared. This was also why Mu Can had dug out many empty holes. "Woof! Let’s keep digging. There should be more than just one treasure here." Wang Cai was also full of anticipation following Mu Can closely. This time, he was determined to keep a close eye on Mu Can and prevent a repeat of the previous situation where a treasure was unearthed, and he did not even get to touch it. There was no need for Wang Cai’s reminder, because Mu Can was already brimming with motivation. There were over a dozen more locations to dig, and his heart was filled with the expectation of potentially finding another treasure—a stroke of immense fortune. The Immortal Ancient Secret Realm was filled with opportunities at every turn; this was not a legend, but a stark reality laid bare before Mu Can’s eyes. "Got something else." Mu Can felt his longsword touch a hard object, so he immediately put away the Treasure Bead and longsword, jumped into the hole, and started to search with his hands. "Woof! You move aside, let me help you find it. My nose works better than yours." Seeing Mu Can’s actions, Wang Cai couldn’t stand still. This wasn’t what he had imagined. When had Mu Can become so clever, starting to search for the treasure before he even jumped down? "Go aside." Mu Can didn’t even turn his head; he could imagine Wang Cai’s expression without looking. It must be the anxious look of wagging his tail at the sight of a treasure he couldn’t touch. Mu Can’s hands groped at the bottom of the hole and touched a hard object. With a forceful pull, he extracted a mysterious object from the pit. "Just another useless item." Observing it closely, he noticed that what he held was another longsword, but it was corroded beyond recognition; the blade was covered with rust and soil. "This was supposed to be a Divine Weapon." The hilt of the longsword was made from millennium-old Dragon Iron Wood. However, its original luster had faded, and it now looked like common rotten wood. If not for Mu Can’s sharp eyes, he couldn’t have recognized that this tattered piece of wood was the extremely valuable millennium-old Dragon Iron Wood from the Mortal World. It was said that Dragon Iron Wood only grew in places where dragons lived. Yet, in the Mortal World, dragons themselves were a legend, not to speak of the trees that grew alongside them. Even Mu Can wouldn’t have recognized this type of wood if he hadn’t lived with a Giant Dragon for a while during a trial. "Ah, how much time has passed." Mu Can lamented, the world changes as the seas turn into mulberry fields, even Dragon Iron Wood, which is said to be preserved forever, can become mundane as its essence fades away. "If this sword were intact, it could be considered the most powerful weapon in the Mortal World." Wang Cai had been staring fixedly at Mu Can, only losing interest in the treasure when Mu Can took out the longsword that had corroded beyond recognition. Buried in the ground for who knows how many years, this once-treasured sword had already lost its original value. "Ah, the hilt is made from ten-thousand-year-old Dragon Iron Wood, the blade must also be no ordinary material, but it is too regrettable that it has rusted like this." Mu Can sighed, feeling that the places he had dug up before where no treasures were found could very likely have once contained various treasures, but they had all disappeared over time. Mu Can picked up the broad knife in his hand and slowly chopped off the sundries wrapped around the rusted sword’s blade, revealing the distorted and corroded blade beneath, covered in rust. "Baxi." Two faint characters could be barely made out on the blade, the miraculous inscriptions all eroded away, losing their luster.

"Baxi Longsword, that’s not right, if such a Divine Weapon were present, how could there be no record of it in the history of the Mortal World? Moreover, looking at this script, it’s clearly the writing of the Mortal World, who could the owner of this longsword be? Why would they abandon such a Divine Weapon here?" Mu Can pondered quietly in his heart. However, without any other clues, Mu Can couldn’t guess the origins of the longsword, and could only put away the rusted sword into his Storage Magical Treasure, planning to ask Xuanyuan Mingkong if he knew the sword’s history after getting out. "Keep digging." Without the anticipated second treasure, Mu Can’s enthusiasm for treasure hunting did not diminish in the slightest; any of the remaining locations might contain the most important treasure here, the one that could become the Treasure Bead that conceals the Array Eye of the Big Formation. Moreover, this treasure must be no ordinary item; it at least needs to withstand the test of time, maintaining its complete Spiritual Power, otherwise, it wouldn’t be possible to continue powering the operation of the Big Formation. "Hey ho, hey ho, keep on digging!" Mu Can was in a good mood; although trapped within the Big Formation, he could enjoy treasure hunting to his heart’s content, and treasure hunting didn’t interfere with breaking the formation, which was indeed a delightful affair. "Woof! Kid, leave some good stuff for me." Seeing Mu Can’s happy face, Wang Cai felt much more miserable. At this moment, Wang Cai was filled with regret for not volunteering to take on the burden of treasure hunting. Now relegated to merely watching on the sidelines, he had made up his mind to keep an eye on Mu Can’s condition and to leap into the pit to grab the treasures the moment anything seemed off. Although Mu Can was focused on digging for treasures, he was also on guard against Wang Cai; there was no helping it, this dog’s track record was already notorious, and Mu Can couldn’t let his guard down with him on the side. "Eh, what’s this thing." Mu Can’s eyes lit up, and he exclaimed. This call was a mistake; a fat black dog squeezed its way in, frantically digging at the bottom of the pit.
