Duan Gujin had no doubts about the Palace Master's claim, as he had personally experienced similar incidents before.

Indeed, some Demon Kings can use Secret Techniques to seal away the Dark Weapons of powerful Human Clan experts, making them undetectable to others.

After considering the cause and effect, Duan Gujin felt that the Palace Master should not have deceived him.

"May I ask where exactly are those treasures located, Princess?"

The Palace Master said, "I only know that they are nearby!"

"Shall we set off in a group?"

Duan Gujin asked.

"Just you and me!"

"Alright!"

Duan Gujin took a deep breath, knowing he should try his best.

If he could find the treasures left on the island by those ancient masters, perhaps he could use them to suppress the Sky Crossing Demon King.

"That place is very special. There is a very powerful Species living there in the sea, the Sea Crab Demon Clan!"

The Palace Master said.

"The Sea Crab Demon Clan, the one as tall as humans?"

Duan Gujin asked, puzzled.

"Yes!"

The Palace Master nodded slightly.

"We may have to expand the search area, so I'm telling you in advance to be cautious of the Sea Crab Demon Clan!"

"Got it!"

Under the guidance of the Palace Master, Duan Gujin followed her forward.

After two days, they finally arrived above a vast ocean.

To the naked eye, there was no difference between their current location and a normal ocean.

Duan Gujin released his Divine Sense, soon realizing that his Divine Sense Inspection was ineffective.

"If it wasn't for the Palace Master leading the way, even if I came very close to this place, I would probably still not notice that there is such an island here!"

It wasn't that he lacked knowledge; rather, the level of the Illusion Array here was too high, and with his current Cultivation, he couldn't see through it.

If Duan Gujin's Cultivation had reached the Martial Sect Realm, he might have been able to detect the presence of an Illusion Array in the sea ahead.

"I'll take you down; the entrance to the Illusion Array is in the sea! Follow me!"

Following the Palace Master's lead, Duan Gujin entered the seabed.

Along the way, he saw many unusually huge Sea Crabs.

They carefully avoided these Sea Crabs and then arrived on an island.

"Good, we're finally at the Sealing place!"

Duan Gujin's face showed a hint of delight, and he quickly released his Evil Eye to survey the surroundings.

After a while, he frowned slightly.

"Do you sense anything unusual around here?"

The Palace Master asked.

"There is a very strange place nearby, follow me!"

Through the Evil Eye, Duan Gujin truly sensed the existence of a place on the island where a subtle and strange energy was present.

So, he led the Palace Master towards that place.

15 minutes later, they arrived at a clearing.

"That thing is right below here! Palace Master, haven't you dug three feet into the ground here before?"

Duan Gujin asked.

"We have used some methods before. Our ancestors said they had already dug three feet into the ground here!"

The Palace Master replied.

"Let's dig together!"

Having triple-checked that he really sensed a bizarre energy emanating right beneath his feet, Duan Gujin joined hands with the Palace Master to dig through the soil in that empty space.

Initially, the Palace Master thought that they would only need to dig a few meters of soil.

But what happened next was entirely beyond her expectation; she did not anticipate that she and Duan Gujin would end up digging more than thirty meters.

If it weren't for the discovery of a black-as-ink longsword, one meter in length at the end of their excavation, the Palace Master would have definitely thought Duan Gujin had made a sensing mistake.

Duan Gujin's Divine Sense peered into the longsword, only to find that its Divine Power had been completely exhausted.

And wrapped around the exterior of the longsword was a powerful force of corrosion, which he recognized as emanating from a Demon King of the Netherworld Dark Clan.

"This sword is completely ruined. I can definitely say that it must have been left behind by some expert in the past!"

Duan Gujin asserted decisively.

The Palace Master's brows knitted slightly as she asked, "If that's the case, does it mean that even if we do find treasures left by those powerful beings from the past, they would also have turned into a pile of scrap metal?"

"That's not necessarily the case. What if those treasures were stored inside an exceptionally special spacial Dark Weapon? Such a possibility exists!"

In his previous life, Duan Gujin had indeed unexpectedly found a severely damaged storage ring in a relic that was disregarded by others. However, the space inside that storage ring was intact, and some of the treasures inside still retained a portion of their Divine Power.

Duan Gujin's eyes flickered as he said, "Let's hope our luck is good enough to pick up some treasures!"

"That's all I can pray for now!"

The Palace Master knew that whether they could find any valuable treasures here really depended on their luck.

Duan Gujin promptly took a tour around the island with the Palace Master, but this time they didn't find anything.

"Have you sensed any remnants of the Demon King's presence underneath this island?"

The Palace Master inquired.

"No! I've pushed the power of the Evil Eye to its limit, and still detected no trace of the Demon King's presence under this island!"

Duan Gujin stated seriously.

"It seems that the Demon King is truly dead!"

The Palace Master spoke with satisfaction.

"What if the Demon King escaped from here? Do you think that's possible?"

Duan Gujin asked with some doubt.

"You don't know this, but if the Illusion Array on this island were to disappear, it would mean that the Sealing Array inside the island has been broken. However, we see the Illusion Array here is still perfectly intact, so I judge that the Demon King has not escaped from here. According to reason, it should really have died. My ancestors told me that this place was the best they sealed, and once the Demon King were truly trapped here, it would only face one outcome: death!"

The Palace Master explained.

"Oh, so that's how it is!"

Duan Gujin prayed inwardly that everything would be just as the Palace Master said; if another Demon King were to appear here, he truly wouldn't know what to do.

Having confirmed there was no trace of the Demon King's aura on the island, Duan Gujin and the Palace Master went to search for treasures near the bottom of the sea surrounding the island.

They took a trip around the seabed when, all of a sudden, Duan Gujin sensed several very subtle cracking sounds in the nearby void.

Despite the many fishes swimming back and forth near him, and even a number of sharks prowling around him, he didn't sense any Killing Aura being released from these fishes or sharks.

However, the cracking sounds he detected earlier seemed to emit an indistinct Killing Aura towards him.

He immediately had a premonition of danger and swiftly communicated with the Palace Master to prepare for battle.

Duan Gujin and the Palace Master readied themselves for combat, extending their Divine Sense to survey their surroundings.

A moment later, they saw two figures appearing on their right.

Sighting the two figures, their expressions subtly changed.

What they saw were two Sea Crabs, each reaching three meters in height, with unusually burly figures, their shells as black as ink, emanating a metallic luster.

"Who are you?"

The Palace Master sent out her Divine Sense and quickly determined that the Cultivation of both Sea Crabs was actually at the Martial Sect Realm.

She was extremely shocked in her heart; she had been to this place at least more than ten times before and had seen many strong Sea Crabs, but it was the first time she encountered two Sea Crabs with powers at the level of Martial Sect at the same time, completely overturning her understanding.

"You, the Human Clan, what are you doing here?"

A deep voice burst from the mouth of one of the Sea Crabs ahead.
