153: Treasure map in ore

It was called Ore.

Actually, they were just a few water spirit stones emitting a blue treasure light.

The quantity shouldn't be much.

He didn't have any mining tools on him.

Fortunately, this didn't stump Mu Feng.

With a grip of his right hand, a silver battle flag appeared in his grasp.

The Azure Dragon Flag was unaffected by water, making it perfect for mining.

“Clang, clang, clang!”

Gripping the flagpole, Mu Feng used the spearhead to forcefully poke at the blue Ore.

In a short while, the connected blue Ore was broken open by him, falling piece by piece in front of him.

Mu Feng squatted down and picked them up.

...

Before long, five water spirit stones were collected by Mu Feng into his Storage Pouch.

With these five, he now had a total of eight water spirit stones, enough to repair the Formation Flag.

Of course, the premise was that he had to find the last Material for repairing the Formation Flag: Water-Sinking Wood.

Clang, clang, clang!

He didn't know if these water spirit stones had any other uses.

Mu Feng felt he could dig up more.

Picking up the Azure Dragon Flag, he gave a few more consecutive pokes.

Several more blue stones dropped out from inside.

Mu Feng squatted down and counted.

This time, one more water spirit stone was extracted than before.

“That should be enough.”

There was still a bit of this water spirit stone Ore, but Mu Feng didn't plan to dig anymore.

These stones were still a bit hard.

He didn't want to damage his Advanced Magical Artifact by digging.

Speaking of which, using an Advanced Magical Artifact to mine was like a scorpion pulling a cart—one of a kind.

If others saw this, they would probably be envious again.

“Oh, what is this?”

Mu Feng was about to put the newly extracted Ore into his Storage Pouch when he suddenly noticed that the pattern on one of the Ore pieces seemed off.

It looked like something was drawn inside.

Mu Feng curiously picked it up to examine it.

After injecting his Divine Sense, all the patterns in the Ore immediately appeared in his Sea of Consciousness.

“This looks like a Treasure Map!”

After finishing, Mu Feng's face was filled with excitement.

He had obtained two Treasure Maps before.

Their route indications were very similar to those on this Ore.

However, Mu Feng wasn't entirely sure if it was a Treasure Map, because previous Treasure Maps always had self-location markers, allowing him to check where he was.

They were quite Advanced.

This one was a bit different.

It only had a route, with no indication of his own position.

Moreover, this thing had turned into Ore.

The Treasure Trove must have been there for who knows how many years.

Mu Feng wasn't sure if it still existed.

“Forget it, whether it's a Treasure Trove or not, I'll just go check it out.”

“Anyway, I'm just aimlessly wandering.”

Mu Feng felt that to know if the patterns recorded on this Ore were a Treasure Map, he just needed to go take a look.

Anyway, he had no specific goal in this Undersea Secret Realm.

If it was a Treasure Trove, great.

If not, it wouldn't hinder his wandering.

No sooner said than done.

Mu Feng put away the water spirit stones and proceeded according to the route on the back of the Ore.

He looked at the map.

It shouldn't be very far.

Because in his Divine Sense probing, the landmark buildings in the route had already appeared.

Mu Feng calculated.

The Treasure Trove was probably less than thirty kilometers from his location.

With his foot speed, it would take about an hour.

Just like that, Mu Feng enjoyed the scenery while heading towards his destination.

It had to be said that this Undersea Secret Realm was truly vast, allowing Mu Feng to fully indulge in the underwater world.

An hour quickly passed.

Mu Feng, following the Treasure Map's instructions, arrived at the final Treasure Trove location: an incredibly massive, dilapidated sunken ship!

“So big!”

He used his Divine Sense to probe it, only to find that he could only detect less than a third of the ship.

This meant the ship's length was over three to four thousand meters.

Such a colossal vessel, he wondered how it sank, and it was even overturned.

Never mind, it was none of his business anyway.

He just wanted to find his Treasure Trove.

“That looks like the entrance.”

After a round of Divine Sense probing, Mu Feng quickly found the ship's entrance.

It was less an entrance and more a large, broken hole in the ship's hull, with water flowing in and out.

After probing it with his Spiritual Eye Divine Power, Mu Feng frowned slightly.

He saw an enormous octopus, about twenty to thirty meters in size, guarding the entrance.

Each of its eight arms was two to three meters thick, covered with large and small suction cups, densely packed.

Even Mu Feng, who didn't have trypophobia, felt a bit disgusted seeing them.

“I didn't expect a large octopus to be guarding the entrance.”

“I wonder what Realm of Yao Beast it is.”

“Looking at its size, it probably isn't low-ranked.”

With curiosity, Mu Feng focused his attention and began to investigate the Yao Beast's information.

[Name: Giant Foot Octopus]

[Realm: Fourth Order Peak]

[Description: A super-large octopus living at the bottom of the sea, with strong territorial awareness, it will actively attack creatures that invade its territory.]

[Skills: Giant Arm Slam, Black Ink Spray, Entangling Suction]

....

Checking the skill details:

[Giant Arm Slam: The Giant Foot Octopus likes to attack enemies with its thick, long arms. It has strong power and a wide range.]

[Black Ink Spray: The Giant Foot Octopus can spray jet-black ink-like fluid from its mouth, which has the effect of disturbing vision and interfering with Divine Sense. The spray range is wide and difficult to dodge.]

[Entangling Suction: Each arm of the Giant Foot Octopus has numerous suction cups, which can easily and firmly suction onto any entangled enemy.]

“This is troublesome, it's actually a Fourth Order Peak Yao Beast.”

Mu Feng's face was full of bitter smiles.

Although he knew before looking that this octopus was not to be trifled with, he didn't expect it to be a Yao Beast in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, almost ready to Breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage.

“What should I do?”

“Should I still go in?”

Mu Feng wasn't clear about what Treasure Trove was inside this sunken ship.

Provoking such a Yao Beast for no reason was very irrational.

[There is an emerald treasure chest in this sunken ship.]

Just as he was about to retreat, a red prompt appeared before his eyes.

“emerald treasure chest!”

Mu Feng, who was still debating whether to enter, stared wide-eyed as soon as he saw that there was an emerald treasure chest inside!

That was an even more Advanced chest than a platinum treasure chest!

“Since there's an emerald treasure chest, then this sunken ship must be entered!”

Seeing the potential profit, Mu Feng's enthusiasm was immediately ignited.

With a wave of his hand, a silver long spear appeared in his grasp.

With his current strength, he might as well try a few moves with this octopus.

With the Azure Dragon Flag in hand, Mu Feng's courage grew a bit more.

He narrowed his eyes and charged directly towards the sunken ship's entrance.

Mu Feng originally intended to get closer and then attack with swift, decisive means.

However, this Giant Foot Octopus was very vigilant.

It had already discovered Mu Feng, the uninvited guest, when he was still two to three hundred meters away, and it charged out from the sunken ship first.

It seemed its territorial range was about three hundred meters in radius.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

This octopus looked huge, but its body was not clumsy at all.

With a push of a few arms, it reached Mu Feng's front.

Then, Zhang Kai its incredibly massive arms and legs, it launched a furious barrage of attacks at Mu Feng.
