Chapter 735: A thief never leaves empty-handed
Chen Ze slowly walked towards the altar in the center of the palace. The clones gathered around him, always ready to sacrifice themselves.
As he approached the box that exuded mysterious light, a strong curiosity and expectation surged in his heart.
He stretched out his hand and gently touched the surface of the box, feeling a slight warmth coming from his fingertips.
The light on the box flickered slightly, as if responding to his touch.
Chen Ze could feel a powerful force contained in the box, which made his heart beat faster involuntarily.
He had a vague feeling that the treasure in this box seemed to be as good as the fragments of ancient artifacts.
"Master, let me do it!" Just when Chen Ze was about to get the box, a clone said.
Chen Ze glanced at him, nodded slightly, and took a step back.
The clone carefully reached out to pick up the box. Fortunately, he didn't notice anything happened the moment he took the box.
The clone looked at Chen Ze, took a deep breath, and slowly took the box off the altar.
Under the gaze of everyone, he carefully placed the box on the ground.
The moment the box landed, it seemed as if the entire palace trembled slightly.
Everyone was shocked and alert to the surrounding situation.
After a while, there was no unexpected surprise.
"It's okay, just relax a little, I'm so nervous." Chen Ze said with a chuckle.
After listening to Chen Ze's words, the clones relaxed a little from their nervousness, but their eyes were still fixed on the mysterious box.
Chen Ze stepped forward and looked at the box carefully.
The light on the surface of the box seemed to be a little brighter, as if telling its extraordinary origin.
He gently rubbed the edge of the box, feeling the surge of mysterious power.
"Master, what exactly does this box contain?"
"Open it and take a look first, be careful."
"Yes, Master."
The clone responded, then slowly stretched out his hand, ready to open the box.
He tried to find a way to open the box, but found that there was no obvious opening mechanism on the box.
"Master, do you want to force it open?"
Chen Ze shook his head slightly, "Don't be reckless. Forcing it open may cause unpredictable consequences."
Just when everyone was at a loss what to do, the light on the box suddenly began to change.
A powerful force surged out of the box, shaking the clones backwards.
The power was like a raging tide, sweeping across the entire palace in an instant.
The clones immediately stepped forward and blocked Chen Ze behind them.
Chen Ze's eyes narrowed and there was a hint of solemnity in his voice, "This box is really not simple. The power inside it is far beyond our imagination."
"Master, what should we do now?"
Chen Ze was silent for a moment, and then said: "Put it away first and then talk."
"Yes, Master."
The clone's palm gently placed on the box, trying to put it into the space of all things.
When the clone's palm touched the box, the box trembled slightly and then disappeared from everyone's eyes.
"Master, you have successfully collected the space of all things."
Chen Ze breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it can be contained in the space of all things, it won't be a big problem. There will be plenty of time for research in the future.
"Master, where should we go next?" The clones looked at Chen Ze, waiting for his instructions.
Chen Ze looked around and pondered for a moment, "There should be no other exits from this palace. We should retreat outside first and collect this palace into the space of all things before we talk."
"Yes, Master."
The clones looked around and nodded. They had just explored it, but they didn't find any other exits.
Chen Ze started to walk towards the outside of the palace, with his clones following closely behind.
At this moment, the palace suddenly trembled slightly.
Chen Ze was startled and looked around cautiously.
I saw cracks starting to appear on the walls of the palace, and the ground was shaking violently.
"No, this palace seems to be collapsing." Chen Ze's expression changed, "Everyone, get out of here quickly."
The clones acted quickly and followed Chen Ze towards the exit of the palace.
Behind them, the collapse of the palace became more and more violent. Huge stones fell one after another, raising a cloud of dust.
Finally, they rushed out before the palace completely collapsed.
Chen Ze looked back at the ruins, filled with emotion in his heart, "It will collapse sooner or later. I just wanted to take you away, and you collapsed for me. Are you so disrespectful?"
"Master, what should we do next?" the clones asked.
Chen Ze stared at the ruins of the palace, feeling unconvinced, "Although this palace has collapsed, the materials used to build the palace are not simple at first glance.
Go search and see if there is anything valuable in these ruins."
"Yes, Master." The clones immediately accepted the order and began to search carefully in the ruins.
They carefully turned over the huge stones, not missing any corner where treasures might be hidden.
"Well, that big stone looks good. Maybe it will be used when building a house in the future. Take it away."
"The gem is also good. It looks very shiny. Take it away."
"That brick is not bad either..."
The thief does not steal anything... No, this is called waste utilization.
After a while, the clones collected a lot of things.
The ruins of the original palace became cleaner, with only some rubble remaining.
Chen Ze nodded with satisfaction, and when he was about to order to leave, he suddenly felt a weak energy fluctuation coming from the depths of the ruins.
"Wait." Chen Ze raised his hand to signal the clones to stop, "I feel a strange energy fluctuation, there may be other discoveries."
The clones immediately stopped their work and looked at the ruins vigilantly.
Chen Ze closed his eyes and concentrated on feeling the source of the energy fluctuation.
After a moment, he opened his eyes and pointed to a corner in the ruins, "There, dig carefully."
The clones acted quickly and carefully cleaned the stones and debris in that corner.
As the excavation deepened, a rune slab emitting mysterious light gradually appeared.
Chen Ze's eyes lit up. This slab was not found in the palace before. It seemed that it was originally buried under the palace.
And he could clearly feel that this rune slab contained powerful energy, which was not simple at first glance.
It was much more valuable than those building materials.
"Take it out."
Chen Ze gave an order, and the clones carefully took the rune slab out of the ruins and placed it in front of Chen Ze.
Chen Ze carefully observed the runes on the slab, trying to decipher the mystery.
But these runes were too old, and he couldn't understand their meaning.
"First, put this slab into the space of all things, and then study it slowly later."
The clones put the rune slab into the space of all things as they said.
At this time, there were no other valuable discoveries in the ruins.
Chen Ze looked around, and after the palace disappeared, a wide field of vision was revealed behind it.
"Continue to explore and see if there are any other discoveries."
This palace is not the end of the secret realm, and there is still a way to go ahead.
