He was willing to tell Duan Gujin everything he knew because he had previously seen Duan Gujin completely subdue an enemy who could control Blood Crows with a single Dark Weapon, turning the enemy into his slave.
Wu Zian didn't want to end up controlled by Duan Gujin's Divine Soul like the Blood Crow Demon, becoming a walking corpse.
Once he was truly controlled by Duan Gujin, the latter would definitely make him reveal everything he knew.
Weighing the pros and cons, Wu Zian felt that since he had sought out a skilled warrior like Duan Gujin for collaboration, there was no need to hide anything.
If they had to look for the treasure with someone else, they might not trust that person.
The reason they chose to search for the treasure with Duan Gujin was that they had witnessed his prowess before, knowing that he alone could defeat an assassin at the Martial Sect Realm.
After all, they had some experience in the worldly society; they knew Duan Gujin's strength was much greater than that of an ordinary adventurer.
"Heh, they found the treasure map in an antique and fought over the treasure before even finding it? What happened in the end?"
Duan Gujin knew that such things happened; he had heard of many such instances in the past.
"Yes, the martial master who taught us martial arts was ambushed by his companion, but he also killed that companion! As a result, three days later, our martial master died, and before his death, he handed us the map and told us to search for the treasure,"
continued Wu Zian.
"Did you investigate clearly whether there really was a treasure at that place?"
Duan Gujin frowned slightly. How the martial master died didn't interest him, nor did he want to know too much about it. Right now, he was only concerned with one thing—he wanted to know why the four people in front of him were so sure that there must be a treasure there.
"That map has very detailed records. It states that if the Array at that place loses its effect, the treasure within will be revealed! We've been following that map in search all this time, and finally, we did locate the place indicated by the map for the hidden treasure. When we arrived at that place, we did find an Array protecting it. We originally planned to venture inside, but we were blocked by the Array and couldn't enter!"
said Wu Zian.
"Oh, then show me the map, I want to check the age of that map,"
said Duan Gujin.
"Okay!"
Without any hesitation, Wu Zian immediately took out a piece of paper from his storage ring and handed it to Duan Gujin.
Duan Gujin took the map and inspected it with his Divine Sense.
After a while, he judged that the map was indeed very old.
"Let's head to the destination first,"
Duan Gujin said indifferently.
"Understood!"
Wu Zian nodded vigorously.
Half a day went by quickly.
Duan Gujin followed the four people into a dense forest.
Duan Gujin released his Divine Sense, scanning the surroundings.
At first, he thought this place was just one of the many dense forests with nothing special about it.
But once he entered, he sensed a powerful force emanating from underground.
"There really is something unusual here!"
He gasped, knowing that without a map, it would be difficult for him to detect that there was an Array releasing strong Array Energy underneath where he stood.
"There really is an Array beneath this place!"
Duan Gujin remarked with emotion.
"Did you ever reach underneath before?"
Duan Gujin asked.
"When we were wandering around here before, we discovered three corpses that had died for who knows how many years, and those corpses had a lot of Jiuzhou coins on them. We did make a small fortune, but we couldn't find the treasure, and it's always been a sore point for us!"
said Wu Zian.
"Then lead the way,"
said Duan Gujin.
"Okay!"
Wu Zian and the others led the way.
A moment later, Wu Zian revealed a secret passage hidden in that place.
They entered the secret passage and after progressing more than ten meters, a huge stone door blocked their way.
"Can't you open this stone door?"
Duan Gujin asked.
"No, we haven't entered inside because we are stopped by this stone door! If you inspect inside the stone door with your Divine Sense, you will understand what's going on,"
said Wu Zian.
Duan Gujin approached the stone door and investigated with his Divine Sense, discovering that there was actually strong Array Power within the door, and he suddenly realized.
"It seems to open this stone door, we probably need to find the switch around here!"
He had seen the map given to him by Wu Zian, and he knew that the records on that map were very basic and had no methods for breaking through the stone door.
So, Duan Gujin released his Divine Sense to explore the surroundings.
For people like Wu Zian, their Telekinesis wasn't strong enough; they might not be able to find the key to this place.
But Duan Gujin's Telekinesis was exceptionally strong. He extended his Divine Sense and sensed out all the Array Power nearby.
Following the sources of those Array Powers, he carefully searched every nearby location for a while.
He felt that to open the stone door, the usual method would be to find the switch for the door.
After 15 minutes, his Divine Sense Inspection sensed an unusual spot in this place.
"That's right, the switch is there!"
Duan Gujin flashed, arriving at the stone wall underground.
After searching the stone wall for a while, he pressed a small hole inside the stone wall.
While others were puzzled, a clicking sound resounded incessantly.
Hearing this sound, everyone became excited, knowing Duan Gujin had found the switch.
"Oh my God! I've searched that place thoroughly several times before. I didn't expect that I needed to press that stone!"
Wu Zian inhaled sharply, a strange feeling crossing his mind.
He knew he had found the right person, but the thought crossed his mind that if Duan Gujin wanted to forcibly seize the treasure here, they would have no way to stop him.
For a moment, he wasn't sure whether asking Duan Gujin for help was a good thing or a bad thing.
After pondering for a while, he felt that with Duan Gujin's skills, if the other party really wanted to kill them and grab the treasure, they would be powerless to resist.
"If he really wants to forcibly seize the treasure by then, we'll just give it to him! I hope he is a kind person!"
At this point, he could only comfort himself this way.
When the heavy stone door was moved aside revealing a passageway underground that they could pass through, Wu Zian and the others prepared to enter the underground passageway.
"Don't be so reckless! Be careful, there might be traps inside,"
Duan Gujin did not immediately enter, but first covered the entrance of the underground passage with trees, so others would not discover it.
After getting everything ready, he suggested that those present wait for the toxic gas inside to dissipate before proceeding.
