Chapter 257

Although it is only Tier 5, it will definitely make countless "mages" collapse.

It's just that...

The growth value of 1,000,000, however, left him a bit speechless.

He wondered whether he could collect enough dragon essence in 【Demon Dragon Abyss】...

Really looking forward to the SSS-rank 【Black Dragon Totem】!

………………

"They say dragons love collecting good things — wonder if the Black Dragon BOSS's lair has any?"

Even the Barbarian God said the Demon Dragon Abyss is full of treasures everywhere.

Luo Chenyu thought it over and decided to go take a look.

The steep little volcano — yet Luo Chenyu ran across it as if it were flat ground, sprinting at full speed.

In no time he arrived at the crater.

Standing at the rim, he looked down into the crater.

Blazing heat gushed upward; countless dark-red streams of lava churned, with clumps of black flame bursting out every so often.

Suddenly.

Luo Chenyu's eyes lit up — he had truly spotted a strange glow on the inner rock wall of the little volcano.

A black treasure chest came into view.

This was the first time he had ever come across a wilderness treasure chest.

Many members of the Assassin Guild, the Lierengong Society, and the Adventurer Guild make their living hunting wilderness treasure chests, which shows their value is hardly low.

A treasure chest inside a BOSS's home...

Its value must surely be higher than those chests outside.

Unfortunately...

【Void Step】 is still on cooldown — over twenty minutes before it can be used again.

And the chest's location is a bit tricky.

One careless slip and Luo Chenyu would face a baptism of endless lava.

"Wait twenty minutes?"

Luo Chenyu carefully studied the terrain around the chest's position, considered for a moment, then finally shook his head. "A drop of just over thirty meters — shouldn't be much of a problem!"

He made his way to the spot directly above the chest.

Luo Chenyu leaned out and looked down — the chest was no longer in sight.

Without a moment's hesitation, he jumped!

The blazing heat grew thicker and thicker.

The dark-red lava was within arm's reach.

Luo Chenyu gave a slight smile, adjusted his body, and aimed for the platform where the chest sat.

Brutal Charge!

His body lunged toward the platform in a way that defied all reason.

Boom!!

Luo Chenyu slammed straight into the pitch-black crater wall, leaving a crater behind...

"Hahaha... worthy of me — clever!"

Seeing the treasure chest right before him, Luo Chenyu burst into wild laughter.

He arrived in front of the chest.

He reached out and grabbed it.

The chest wasn't locked — it had been sealed with a black strip, and Luo Chenyu opened it with ease.

However...

The item inside, however, made his brow knit tight.

It was actually a crimson heart!

And at that moment, the heart was still beating in a steady rhythm.

A living heart!!

Apart from that, there was nothing else.

Just as Luo Chenyu stood stunned, a weak voice rang out beside his ear.

"Human... save me..."
