"Is this the place where the Witches of all ages were buried?" Lena's face changed slightly at the sight of the sarcophagi. Perhaps, at that moment, she thought of the possibility that one day, she would be buried there as well.
Not long after, she went up to the high platform and shuttled through the several sarcophagi scattered around, with Rocky closely following her. At the same time, he looked at one of the sarcophagi carefully and found that it was completely sealed shut without a single entrance for any air. However, he could feel a strange and indescribable aura coming from it as if the person lying in the sarcophagus was not a dead person, but rather, a living one.
He was not alone to have this thought. Lena, who was a Witch, was certainly able to sense the intense auras coming from both sides of the sarcophagus. Moreover, at that moment, she felt as if several women were whispering in her ears. However, their words were vague enough that she was not able to understand what they were saying. This inability to discern the voices made her irritable, turning her face pale in annoyance.
"Hey, Lena, are you okay?" Rocky asked worriedly as soon as he noticed Lena's pale face.
"I'm fine." Biting her pink lips slightly, Lena smiled and shook her head at Rocky.
But at that moment, it seemed that Rocky was still a little worried. Soon after, he took Lena's hand and walked her out of the platform quickly and soon moved forward. Lena seemed to have recuperated as she felt the surging feeling of warmth from Rocky's palm.
Meanwhile, the two of them passed through the high platform together and went down the stairs as if they were walking in an endless corridor.
"It seems that the royal forbidden area is really not an ordinary place at all. If we search this way, I'm afraid we won't be able to find any spiritual treasure for eternity." After walking for a long while, Rocky could not help but frown as he felt like he was trapped in some sort of maze that he could never get out of.
"So, what do you think we should do?" Lena looked at Rocky in anticipation and asked.
After thinking for a while, Rocky stumbled upon an idea. He tried to open the Magic Spiritual Space by gathering his spiritual power. When he found out that his power was not restrained at all, he took advantage of it and summoned Ken out.
It was not Lena's first time to see Ken as she had seen it in the Witch Palace before. Although, when she saw Ken that time, she was only able to get a glimpse of it because she was in an urgent situation. And now that she could see it clearly, she was shocked to see Ken's true nature.
"You have a guardian beast?" Staying in the Dragon Master Clan for a significant amount of time, Lena was well-versed about guardian beasts. With that being said, she could tell with just a quick glance that Ken's aura was not from a spirit-manipulated beast at all, but rather from a spiritual race's guardian beast.
"Wow, you could tell in less than a minute. You're incredible!" The corner of Rocky's lips curled upward as his eyes sparkled with astonishment.
"I hope you don't mind me asking, but where did you get this guardian beast?" Lena couldn't help but take a few more observant looks at Ken and asked in confusion.
"It's a long story. I'll tell you later. In case you didn't know, Ken is a master of treasure hunting. Maybe it can guide us to find the spiritual treasure," Rocky said as he gestured Ken to lead the way.
Not long after, Ken found a suitable path and led Rocky and Lena to follow it.
"The royal forbidden area was created by the first Witch with the use of her own power. I bet the power is so immensely great that it could create this massive and amazing space!" Lena's jaw dropped as she marveled at the changing scenery in front of her.
