Duan Gujin then asked Wu Zian, "Do you have anything very heavy on you? It has to be large, even a stone would do."

Wu Zian quickly nodded and said, "I have an iron statue in my storage ring, which was left to us by the martial master who taught us martial arts!"

"If this iron statue is important to you, then put it away, I can go outside to find a large stone!" said Duan Gujin.

"This statue is not important to us; I only use it to exercise my arm strength!" Wu Zian said. As he spoke, Wu Zian took out a two-meter-tall iron statue from his storage ring.

Duan Gujin infused Primordial Power into the statue, and after a while, he pushed the statue out.

Clang, clang, clang, clang! As soon as the statue touched the ground, countless iron spikes burst forth from the ground.

Despite not knowing how many years had passed, the iron spikes beneath showed no sign of rust and were still incredibly sharp.

However, the spikes only managed to puncture the skin of the iron statue.

Wu Zian and others watched through gaps under the Shield as the statue endured assaults from various Hidden Weapons, gasping in shock.

They could tell that this time, the noises made by the traps were very urgent.

Clearly, the traps here were far more formidable than those they had encountered before.

After a while, they heard countless continuous loud sounds.

They focused their gaze and saw that numerous stones had fallen from the top of the ground.

Each stone weighed almost a hundred jin, falling from the sky and smashing heavily on the ground.

Roughly 15 minutes passed before there was no more sound in front of the iron door.

"Finally, we have cleared the Mechanical Traps here!" Duan Gujin exhaled a sigh of relief, quickly sitting cross-legged to recuperate and restore some strength.

"Brother Jin, what's the situation now? Can we come out?" Duan Gujin gasped, as he had not used much Primordial Power and had quickly adjusted himself back to Peak State.

"Don't come out; I'll inspect this place now! Wait till I've cleared all the traps, then come out," Duan Gujin said, as he inspected the area with Divine Sense Inspection.

"It's safe now, everyone come out," Duan Gujin said.

Wu Zian and the others immediately came out of the stone stairs and saw the ground littered with various Hidden Weapons, causing tingles on their scalp.

They had a similar thought in their minds.

"If we hadn't sought Duan Gujin's help earlier, we four would have died countless times over in this place!"

They breathed out in relief; only now realizing they had severely underestimated the dangers of this treasure hunt.

"This place is quite extraordinary!" Duan Gujin said, frowning in thought.

"Yes, it's too dangerous! I've heard many rumors about treasure hunting and thought it would be easy, but I didn't expect it to be so dangerous!" Wu Zian said, feeling emotional.

Duan Gujin shook his head and said, "That's not what I mean. My point is that this place is all traps, which should be to prevent ordinary Martial Artists. If this was a high-level treasure location, there should be various Advanced Arrays!"

"We are not greedy; we would be content if we could find some Jiuzhou coins here," Wu Zian replied.

Duan Gujin pondered for a while and then decided to open the iron door. He checked the door and found no traps on either side.

Taking a deep breath, he infused Primordial Power into both hands and directly pushed the iron door open.

Wu Zian and others braced for conflict, immediately dodging to one side to avoid any long arrows that might shoot out.

However, when Duan Gujin pushed the iron door open, no long arrows flew out.

Duan Gujin extended his Divine Sense, carefully examining the stone wall in front.

After confirming there were no traps inside the stone wall, he continued forward.

They went about ten meters, pushing open an iron door, and then arrived in a room emanating a faint white glow.

The room was about a hundred square meters, with Green Stone paving the entire room, and in the corners sat more than ten Luminous Pearls emitting the white light illuminating the room.

"My god! Why is there nothing here?" everyone exclaimed upon entering the room, seeing only an empty space.

If there was anything unusual in this room, it would only be the landscape painting on a stone wall.

"Perhaps, the treasure is hidden in a corner," Duan Gujin said.

"Can you find the treasure then?" Wu Zian asked anxiously.

"Everyone, don't tamper with anything here; there might still be traps!" Duan Gujin, with Divine Sense Inspection, probed the Green Stone around the room, checking for internal traps.

But after a thorough check, he found nothing.

"Did you find any traps here?" Wu Zian asked after a while.

"I found no traps here; there are also no hidden passages," Duan Gujin confirmed.

Wu Zian and the others immediately began to carefully search the room. After a long search, they found nothing.

"Could it be that Duan Gujin has already discovered the secret here but hasn't told us?" Wu Zian analyzed voices and felt it was very likely Duan Gujin was hiding the truth.

So, he and the others started digging up the Green Stone in the room, searching piece by piece.

Duan Gujin watched their efforts, merely furrowing his brows without saying anything.

He knew Wu Zian and the others would definitely feel deceived; not content, they had to search stone by stone for the treasure.

When Wu Zian was about to dig up the Green Stone of the landscape painting to check it bit by bit, Duan Gujin stopped him.

"You dig elsewhere, I think the treasure is very likely hidden in this landscape painting! To be precise, this landscape painting could be a clue. If we decipher the mystery of the painting, we could find the treasure!" Duan Gujin said.

"Alright, I'll search the other areas thoroughly first, then I'll think about what this landscape painting is all about," Wu Zian said.

Duan Gujin slightly frowned, sensing dissatisfaction in Wu Zian's tone.

Upon reflection, he realized that Wu Zian's current displeasure was normal.

But he truly had no other choice. Previously, with his Divine Sense extended, he had not found anything here, not even a storage ring.

If there was indeed a storage ring hidden in the room, it must be shielded by some special Array that blocks Divine Sense Inspection, escaping his Divine Sense.
