"Hey, boss, do you smell something?" LAN Guzha suddenly stopped. He turned his head and sniffed around.
Lin Yi was speechless. You're a sea serpent, not general Weiwu. Why are you acting like a dog?
But seeing LAN Guzha's serious face, Lin Yi subconsciously sniffed as well-there wasn't any special smell. Even if there was, it was the smell of the sea water from LAN Guzha ...
"What do you smell?" Lin Yi stopped as well and used his spirit sense to search more carefully, but he still didn't find anything.
"I can't tell what this smell is. It's faint, but it feels familiar. Could it be the inner core of some sea beast?" LAN Guzha stretched out his claws and scratched his head as he spoke with uncertainty.
Lin Yi had mentioned before that Zhao Zhong Yue and the others had obtained a xuansheng stage beast core here. Perhaps this was the smell of the other beast core? After all, LAN Guzha was the royal family of the sea beasts. He must be very familiar with the smell of the sea beasts 'inner cores.
"LAN Guzha, can you be sure where that smell is coming from?" Lin Yi didn't find anything, but he wouldn't doubt LAN Guzha's words so easily. He patted LAN Guzha's body and told him to try to find the source of the smell.
LAN Guzha nodded."Boss, I'll go and try. The smell is a little scattered. I might not be able to find it."
After he finished speaking, LAN Guzha sniffed hard and dangled here and there. After a while, he seemed to have found the right direction and began to move forward in a straight line.
Lin Yi was surprised. He had never heard of a sea serpent having a nose like a dog 's, but that wasn't important anymore. What was important was what LAN Guzha could find-another xuansheng stage sea beast's inner core?
After a while, LAN Guzha stopped in front of a huge rock and walked around it before speaking to Lin Yi with certainty,"Boss, it's inside this rock. The feeling is stronger now, it's definitely right!"
Lin Yi used his spirit sense to scan the huge rock in front of him suspiciously, but he didn't find anything. The interior of the rock looked extremely normal, and his spirit sense could completely penetrate it.
"Boss, move aside. Let me break this stone and see!" LAN Guzha's divine sense could not find any trace of what might be inside the stone, but his strange sense of smell made him unwilling to give up just like that.
LAN Guzha had never felt that his sense of smell was so sensitive before, but for some reason, the faint smell lingered around his nose today. It couldn't be removed, and Lin Yi didn't notice it at all. Only he could smell it.
Lin Yi thought it was weird as well, but the Jade didn't give him any warning, so there shouldn't be any danger. He took two steps back and let LAN Guzha deal with the rock.
LAN Guzha did not use any complicated or profound martial arts techniques. He used his strong body to deal with the rocks. With a swing of his thick tail, a large piece of rock was smashed down.
After a few consecutive strikes, the huge rock immediately cracked into pieces. LAN Guzha used his divine consciousness as his eyes and extended two claws to pull at it a few times. He found a crushed rock the size of a millstone.
"Boss, it's here. The smell is getting stronger!" LAN Guzha turned to Lin Yi and pointed at the stone. It was dark, but Lin Yi could still see his every move.
The problem was that Lin Yi still didn't smell anything, and the stone LAN Guzha was holding didn't seem to be any different.
"LAN Guzha, be careful when you open this stone. Let's see what's inside." Lin Yi walked up and touched the stone.
LAN Guzha answered. He held the stone with one claw and slid the other on the stone. The sharp claws easily left clear marks on the stone before slowly falling off.
As the small stones fell, a small black jade box was revealed. Lin Yi was surprised-there really was something inside the stone?
If LAN Guzha didn't come along, Lin Yi wouldn't have noticed the black jade box at all.
LAN Guzha came to Lin Yi's side with the black jade box in his hands and laughed,"Boss, look, I told you there was something inside! My nose is really amazing!"
Lin Yi smiled, thinking that the two of them would have a lot in common.
LAN Guzha handed the box to Lin Yi and stared at it with wide eyes. He'd tried to open the box just now, but he couldn't find the mechanism.
He wanted to use brute force to break it, but he was afraid of hurting the thing inside the jade box. After all, it was a smell that he could smell. LAN Guzha didn't dare to touch it casually and could only place his hopes on Lin Yi.
Lin Yi looked at the black jade box in his hand with a weird expression. His spirit sense could 'see' the shape and size of the jade box, but when he wanted to go inside, it went through directly, as if he was holding air.
This situation made Lin Yi wonder if what he saw with his spirit sense in this dark space was real.
Or was it that a large part of the darkness was missing in Lin Yi's consciousness? With that thought, Lin Yi decided to light up a fire to illuminate his surroundings. His surroundings immediately came into view, overlapping with what he saw with his spirit sense.
He didn't want to light it up since using his spirit sense was the same, but now he had to use his eyes. There was nothing different, and Lin Yi was relieved.
The jade box was flat, and there was no lock or anything like that. He raised his hand and shook it a few times, and there was a slight sound from inside. It was obvious that something was put in this Jade box. He touched it inch by inch, but there was not even a small crack, as if this was a piece of natural black jade.
"This Jade box is indeed strange. I wonder what's inside. Just the box itself is already a pretty good treasure." Lin Yi couldn't open it after trying, so he handed it back to LAN Guzha. After all, it was something he found, and Lin Yi couldn't keep it for himself.
LAN Guzha received the box and tilted his head to look at the black jade box. Then, he suddenly closed his claws. After a soft crack, the black jade box immediately shattered into pieces. Soon after, a wave of pure spiritual power fluctuation spread in all directions.
