508: The non-existent picture
Chen Du said in disbelief.
The Locking Spear couldn't be wrong; there must be something here.
Moreover, these coordinates had just moved, but when he was about to get close, they stopped moving.
From this, it was even more certain that the Locking Spear was not wrong.
But the scene before him was an empty desert.
The location in his mind had already coincided with his own, so the possibility of the Locking Spear having a problem was very small.
The other party must have hidden!
After a brief moment of doubt, Chen Du's heart became firm.
“Should there be something here?”
Ru Yan asked.
At this moment, she was certain that Chen Du had obtained some treasure map, and this was the end point of the treasure map.
But there was nothing but sand here, clearly not what the other party wanted.
From Ru Yan's perspective, this was normal. After all, in the Yun Que Civilization, the Land of Wither was marked as a purely dangerous place, with no resources.
This Small Civilization was probably crazy with desire for resources.
“Come with me and search nearby, see if there's anything special.”
Chen Du firmly believed that the other party must have hidden.
And the method was extremely clever, even his Rank 31 Mental Energy couldn't detect the other party.
One should know that the Hunter Civilization was also a civilization skilled in stealth, but Huang Cheng's stealth was like a rookie in front of Chen Du.
This wasn't because Chen Du had any extraordinary methods; it was purely a miracle born from immense power.
When fighting Huang Cheng, Chen Du's Mental Energy Rank was 29; now it was 31.
Normally, Rank 31 Mental Energy would require a Domain Warrior at the Domain stage. In terms of Mental Energy, Chen Du was even stronger than a Domain Warrior at the pseudo-Domain stage.
Unfortunately, Rank 31 Mental Energy didn't bring any qualitative change, just a normal increase in strength.
There was likely an unknown enemy here, but Chen Du was not flustered. If the other party hid, in a way, it was also a good thing.
This meant the other party couldn't defeat him.
The other party might be an alien race with some very Heaven-Defying hidden ability, but unfortunately, if he wanted to take the eternal tree, there was nowhere to escape in front of the Locking Spear!
Just like that, Ru Yan and Chen Du began to search this desert.
Unfortunately, there was nothing but sand, no additional discoveries.
Then, Chen Du's Aura changed, and his longsword seemed to be ignited, with black flames surging.
Under Ru Yan's fearful expression, Chen Du casually unleashed several Crescent Sky Rushes, indiscriminately destroying the surroundings.
Although seemingly casual, several Sword Qi strikes were aimed at the destination in his mind, but these Sword Qi were like passing through air, no different from other Sword Qi.
There was no obstruction, nor any change.
How is that possible?
Did it completely disappear?
Chen Du exclaimed in his heart.
When the Sword Qi swept past, he specifically checked the destination in his mind; it hadn't moved an inch, which proved that the other party hadn't hidden at all.
“Found nothing.”
After searching again and again, Ru Yan gave the answer.
This desert was neither too big nor too small, and both of them had carefully investigated it, but the result was indeed unsatisfactory.
“I can only try this method.”
Chen Du muttered to himself in a low voice.
“Ru Yan, come here for a moment.”
Ru Yan did not hesitate. Although Chen Du had moved away from her vital parts, his strength was clearly superior to hers, and she simply could not escape his clutches.
Even if she escaped, she couldn't get through the withered mist outside.
Pfft!
Caught off guard, Chen Du suddenly drew his sword, and the longsword accurately pierced Ru Yan's heart.
“You...”
Ru Yan stared at Chen Du with wide eyes. She didn't understand why the other party had suddenly attacked.
In her impression, the only reason she was alive was the deterrent of the Tier 1 Great Civilization behind her.
But now, how could this be... “The following scene is not for you to see.”
Chen Du pulled out his longsword and said coldly.
Next, Chen Du would use his actions to verify something he had guessed.
Regardless of success or failure, Ru Yan had no reason to live.
Or rather, Ru Yan should have been killed by him long ago, but for various reasons, it had been dragged out until now.
Although the Yun Que Civilization was strong, if Ru Yan died in such a place, even if they had a way to locate her, they wouldn't dare to break in.
Moreover, what if they did break in?
Chen Du had learned his lesson from the Dire Wolf Civilization last time; how could he leave a complete corpse again?
“I'm going to kill you!”
Under the sensation of death, Ru Yan seemed to have lost her mind, pouncing on Chen Du with sharp claws.
She was no match for Chen Du even at her peak, let alone now?
Chen Du, being stronger than the other party, still launched a sneak attack to prevent the other party from having a chance to ignite the Life Ignition Cord. Although even if it was ignited, she would still not be his opponent, it would consume a lot of energy.
Pfft!
The sword passed, the claw broke.
Pfft!
The sword passed, the wing broke.
Pfft!
The sword passed, the bird head fell to the ground.
Chen Du completed the kill with minimal consumption, but it wasn't over yet.
Ru Yan was a being of status in the Yun Que Civilization. If her body were left here, it was very likely that some Yun Que Clan with all sorts of strange abilities would come in and discover what he had done.
Although there was withered mist outside, it couldn't stop a Domain Warrior.
So, Chen Du learned his lesson this time and directly unleashed a million swords, pulverizing Ru Yan's body into dust.
Then, Chen Du once again looked at the destination marked in his mind.
Chen Du still trusted the Locking Spear given by the mysterious Land of Finality. He absolutely did not believe that there was truly an empty space before him.
Something must exist here, but he couldn't see it.
But it wasn't unsolvable. Chen Du still had a way to verify whether something existed here.
That was the ability of the Tenth Secret Treasure.
Virtualization!
This was also why Chen Du had to kill Ru Yan first.
If the other party had some ability to transmit information at the cost of her life, he would have been screwed.
As for whether there was truly an invisible and intangible alien race here, or if the eternal tree itself possessed some special characteristic, Chen Du could only take a gamble!
If it was a characteristic of the eternal tree, then it didn't matter; no one would know the secret of his Ten Secret Treasures. If it was an alien race, then there was still a way.
Chen Du would guard here for a month. He didn't believe that such a Heaven-Defying ability could last for so long.
The reason for using Virtualization was because Chen Du thought of a word.
Frequency matching.
Theoretically, as long as he matched frequencies with this invisible thing, he could see it!
Chen Du acted immediately. The red star plate instantly appeared above his head, and the Ten Mystic Treasures simultaneously radiated light.
The Tenth Secret Treasure, Virtualization!
In the Virtualization state, Chen Du himself had no changes. At this moment, he was equivalent to a virtual projection, able to ignore any attack.
But at this time, his projection had a subtle difference from before.
On Chen Du's pupils, there was a scene that had not existed before!
