Chapter 762: Chapter 760: The Curse of Shattering (19)_1 Chapter 762: Chapter 760: The Curse of Shattering (19)_1 “What was that noise just now?”

As expected, the first to chase us down was indeed the team led by Cass.

Besides him, there was Brother Ah Kai and another member of the Kamakura Family.

Quite the impressive lineup!

Fu Qian gestured behind him as he reflected on this.

“We found something special inside, and it seems we have disturbed it.”

Actually, there was no need for him to say so, as Cass had clearly already noticed the anomaly at this distance.

However, Cass was composed enough not to immediately satisfy his curiosity.

“Did you all chase in all the way?”

“Yeah, I heard some noises and broke through the floor to get down here,” said Cass.

Fu Qian pointed towards Chang Mo.

“Teacher Chang and Classmate Ji were very proactive, taking the lead and helping a lot.”

Proactive my head…

Chang Mo had finally come to her senses, but upon hearing Fu Qian say that, she was momentarily too worn out to retort.

It was clear he had acted recklessly, and Liushuang insisted on following him, leaving her no choice but to join in reluctantly.

Now, he was making it sound as though she had been eager to proceed.

But such an obviously flawed narrative should be easy for Cass to see through, shouldn’t it? He wouldn’t be easily fooled-
“Mr. Yun has worked hard,” said Cass.

The next moment, in her somewhat stunned gaze, Cass even thanked her earnestly.

“Professor Chang too, you did well. Additionally, withdrawing in time instead of recklessly exposing yourselves to danger was a wise choice.”

While speaking, Cass looked behind the door, his expression becoming fierce.

“For such a dangerous target, we will examine it together later. We must be cautious.”

Is there something wrong with everyone today?

Seeing Cass seriously arranging the action without a trace of doubt, Chang Mo began to feel the world around her was becoming surreal.

Is he really buying this? Can’t he see such an obvious loophole in the logic?

Although the people from Heaven’s Commencement Institute tend to be unreliable, it’s usually just in matters of interest, their minds are usually sharp.

Wait a second… Interest!

He didn’t overlook it; he just wanted to see what was inside after hearing about it!

Chang Mo had a sudden realization.

And the moment this thought entered her mind, she subconsciously glanced at Ji Liushuang next to her.

Once on Ye Island, had everyone started to let loose, taking an investigation as if it were a vacation?

But that thing was a bit special…

With Cass’s determined attitude and the realization they would probably have to continue, Chang Mo, feeling resigned, began to recall the scene within the doorway.

Taking some time for a brief investigation doesn’t seem entirely pointless, does it?

After all, it appeared within a relic guarded by the Kamakura Family, so maybe it really is related to the anomalies they possess.

Once a person decides to convince themselves, they become remarkably efficient at it.

Realizing that even the team leader was acting upon personal interest, Chang Mo’s sense of justification soared rapidly.

“What’s going on? How did you end up chasing down to here?”

At that moment, another group arrived, and judging by the number and formation, it seemed to be two teams that had merged and come together.

Aside from Ni Huayuan, who unhesitatingly probed with his questions, Fu Qian also saw Kamakura Si and Jian Jingzheng among them.

However, the focus of Ni Huayuan’s inquiry was completely different from Cass’s.

He was clearly aware of the shirking elements demonstrated in the hole above, and his tone was somewhat severe.

He was in a bad mood, it was evident there hadn’t been any significant findings.

Given the situation, Fu Qian revealed his true nature as a Sword Devil with a cold snort, too lazy to offer any explanation.

“Mr. Yun and Professor Chang found a suspicious target behind that door; we’re about to investigate further,” Cass said with an authoritative manner, speaking earnestly.

“The situation is urgent, no time to waste.”

You realize the urgency, do you!

Holding back the anger surging in his heart, Ni Huayuan’s expression was as still as water as he scanned the faces of the group.

However, when he saw that everyone, including Ah Kai and even Chang Mo nearby, showed no objections, he ultimately gave up on arguing with Cass.

Clearly, this group had an unspoken desire to go in and have a look for themselves.

“Then let’s get moving quickly.”

After a brief silence, Ni Huayuan agreed to Cass’s plan.

…

“Are you saying that we just encountered a smaller one outside?”

The scene behind the door was undoubtedly visually striking.

Witnessing the slowly writhing Crystalline Pool, even Cass, a Transcendent demigod, fell silent for several seconds before asking the question.

“To be precise, we were attacked by a small one,” Chang Mo, as the person involved, nodded and recounted the incident succinctly.

“As of now, that Crystal Worm should have already merged into it.”

“How can there be such a thing!”

At this moment, the Kamakura Family was completely dumbfounded, even the composed Kamakura Si couldn’t help but be a bit stunned.

Beneath the relic that they had been guarding for generations lay such an incomprehensible existence, which appeared to have been there for a considerable length of time–it was all so bizarre.

“It seems you don’t come here often?” Fu Qian asked on the side.

“As far as I know, we don’t,” said Kamakura Si with certainty.

“The collapsed hall above has almost been the furthest extent of our activity. We are the guardians, and our principle has always been to maintain the status quo, never rashly clearing things away.”

Fu Qian nodded, finding this statement quite credible.

“A peculiar structure, these crystals clearly have Transcendent properties; it feels like we could take some back with us.”

Ah Kai, nearby, already seemed eager to give it a try.

“Indeed, it’s quite miraculous, but better to be cautious. This thing is incredibly strong, and we’ve just disturbed it,” Chang Mo added, seemingly with no reservation about taking samples.

“Let’s do it quickly then, there is still much to do.”

Even though he was also shocked by the scene before him, Ni Huayuan had clearly not forgotten the mission he was leading and urged them on with a cold voice.

This object might be wondrous, but the chances of it being related to the trouble with the Kamakura Family seemed quite slim.

The shirkers were clearly self-aware of their behavior, and facing Ni Huayuan’s urging, Ah Kai deftly put away the metal plate and pulled out a crumpled glove instead.

Slipping the skin-like layer over his right hand, he carefully descended two steps and attempted to grab a protruding crystalline appendage.

The appendage was composed of crystals of different shapes, so distinct that even the gaps between them were visible, yet they miraculously held together.

Amidst the sharp clinking sounds, Ah Kai grasped the appendage.

The glove seemed to shield life signs; his hand at that moment felt like a dead branch.

However, just as he tried to snap off the appendage, it suddenly resisted.

The clear clinks intensified abruptly, sounding like rain as countless crystal fragments began to whirl and tumble, dazzlingly beautiful.

In one instant, the clinking ceased.

Hundreds of crystal fragments, converging into a new structure, unexpectedly reconstructed the shape of a hand.

And the instant it took form, it had already firmly grasped Ah Kai’s wrist.
