Chapter 413: The Feathered Serpent's Treasure

~7 min read 1,227 words

"Although 'Astral Conjunctions' occur frequently in South Innis... and Masei has even provided prophecies and judgments, but... isn't this too much of a coincidence?"

"I just heard about the 'Gate of Multiple Histories', and I immediately found a 'Coordinate' and a 'Key'?"

Although the 'Premonition of Danger' did not sound an alarm, and there were no omens from divinatory intuition.

But Aaron only observed from afar; he was not prepared to directly abduct Keni and then use Occultism methods to make her confess everything...

In case the other party was Fish Bait, rashly communing with her Spirit Body would likely lead to trouble.

After thinking it over, Aaron still prepared to 'release' her for a period of time first.

"Close-range observation should be fine, so I will continue to maintain observation."

Countless pearls, agates, and gemstones... were piled up like trash on the small golden island, forming a small mountain peak.

Before the voice had faded, a translucent Shadow appeared on his body.

"Here... must be very dangerous... although there are treasures among those ancient ruins, the possibility of lingering curses is also very high..."

Jamal squatted down, stroking the earth covered in white bones, and took out the completed Treasure Map: "This Treasure Map is a Ritual in itself! Only by holding it as a key can one open the gates to the treasure!"

The ground trembled, revealing a huge opening.

Tony looked at the pitch-black cavern and suddenly shivered; he had lived like a beast since childhood, which also brought him beast-like intuition.

"It should be... 'Kukulkan' also represents the Feathered Serpent! This is a Legendary Mythical Creature with a body like a Python and wings like a bird, and it is one of the totems worshipped by the natives."

"I will not give you a second chance."

However, ever since those white-skinned Demons arrived, they had deeply branded their Greed for gold into the hearts of these natives.

Jamal and Tony's group crossed mountains and ridges, arriving at a depression.

"Cackle... Kukulkan is the rumored place of death and rebirth... the living should not offend such a taboo."

"Jamal..."

Pop!

His feet stepped into the pitch-black pool, sending ripples spreading out.

Tony looked at that familiar yet strange leader with a complex expression.

He converted his Spirituality into a 'Tower', continuing to maintain the 'Cognitive Tampering' that was about to dissipate, preparing to continue blending into the Yenni Sect's camp just like this.

"Resurrection of the dead, Panacea, and creating souls... have always been the three major problems in Occultism; a single Mythical Creature may not necessarily be able to achieve the resurrection of the dead." Masei said very affirmatively: "Be careful! There may be the skeleton of a Feathered Serpent buried here; death may come at any time!"

"So... 'Feathered Serpent' is a Mysterious symbol representing death, and the so-called rebirth is just a beautiful yearning imposed by the natives?" Linda realized.

In the distance, Linda, leading an expedition team, also saw the pale depression.

Boom!

Jamal roared loudly, gripping a string of human bone necklaces around his neck.

But Jamal's expression became extremely excited: "Go!"

"Professor Masei, is this really 'Kukulkan'?"

Tony followed Jamal for a few more steps, and his eyes suddenly brightened.

And Jamal's group had already arrived at the position of the Feathered Serpent's eye!

"According to the map's guidance, this is it."

After unfolding it, a window appeared on the surface of the map, as if a god were looking down on all living beings from high above.

Drip! Drip!

Tony seemed to hear the sound of water droplets.

A layer of cold ice continuously spread over the surface of the lake.

Fierce flames burned on the surface of the pool, shining with bright Light.

Tony even felt an indescribable gaze observing him coldly from the darkness, making his scalp tingle.

Linda remained silent, suddenly taking out a map.

"Haha... finally found it."

And at the very top of the small mountain was half a pitch-black stone tablet, covered with Mysterious symbols like crawling insects.

They held torches, stepped on stairs paved with bones, and went deep underground step by step.

Crack!

"Found it, the treasure of Kukulkan!"

He saw a small island made of gold piled up in front of him!

It was located in the pitch-black pool, emitting a dazzling and moving Light.

Crack!

Roar!

Walking through the long corridor, their group arrived at an underground structure.

At this moment, his intuition told him not to enter this cavern, otherwise there might be ominous consequences!

Half a month later.

This depression appeared Weirdly pale, as if many Animals and even human corpses were buried underground.

Jamal seemed not to consider the danger of the treasure at all, his eyes filled with the light of gold.

Through the calm lake, they could see pale, incomplete corpses at the bottom of the lake!

These corpses, which had originally been as still as sculptures, suddenly opened their eyes, revealing a bloodthirsty and cruel light.

After the surrounding dense jungle entered a certain range, it seemed to lose all Vitality.

Jamal said coldly, withdrawing the Spirit Body: "Now... go find the entrance to the treasure immediately!"

"They are the guardians of the treasure... if you touch the treasure, you will be treated with hostility by the corpses."

Deep in the rainforest.

Crack!

Tony saw corpse after corpse walking from the water onto the land, their faces devoid of even a shred of color.

One member spoke up, trembling.

Tony grabbed a torch and threw it forward; naturally, there were Wizards in the team to cast Witchcraft.

Linda was full of doubt: "In Voodoo Language, Kukulkan represents death and rebirth... but here, I only see death!"

From this perspective, everything could be seen clearly: a pale-white depression wound and coiled through the forest, like a giant feathered serpent!

Originally, for these natives, ordinary gold was merely an ornament.

Tony stepped on something and crushed it; looking closely, he realized it was a white Skull hidden in the withered grass.

The native immediately knelt on the ground, clutching his own throat with both hands, squeezing until his eyeballs bulged and he had difficulty breathing.

These cute little things can turn the ugly into the beautiful, turn the inarticulate into the eloquent, overturn heaven and earth, make people sacrifice their lives without fear, and accomplish everything!

This small mountain of gold represented power and wealth!

Jamal walked over in a daze and grabbed a handful of gold sand.

In any case, this group of people was going to find the treasure of the Seal of Historical Inscription Fragment, so it wouldn't delay anything.

The surroundings were pitch black, low, and damp, carrying an indescribable, disgusting stench.

"They are all mine, mine!"

Masei smiled and replied: "According to my research, this might be because ancient Wizards observed a certain feathered serpent in the Spirit World through dreaming and obtained related knowledge; for example, the term 'Kukulkan' is somewhat close to 'death' in the Spirit World Language..."

"Fire!"

A withered, mangled arm suddenly emerged from the pool.

Under the pressure of his cold, sinister gaze, Tony and the others had no choice but to walk into the cold, gloomy grotto.

At the same time, in the darkness, the sound of feathers rubbing and fluttering arose...

The second update will be later.
