On the cliff, Mo Wen was busy tapping and knocking with his tools, listening intently to the sounds. Occasionally, he would strike loose stones from the cliff face, examine them closely, and then shake his head before tossing them into the lava below. While he manually inspected the area, he also released his divine perception, but as before, it only penetrated about ten feet into the Mountain Body before losing its trace. He had never attempted to use divine perception to probe through obstacles like the Mountain Body and was unsure of its effectiveness. However, according to ancient texts, exploring materials like trees within the Mountain Body would present significant barriers to divine perception. Therefore, most cultivators chose to carve out caves in the wilderness during their seclusion, effectively preventing others from probing their locations.
For three consecutive days, Mo Wen hung on the cliff without any success. Next, he decided to inspect other areas of the island. Inside the cave, he redrew a map of the entire island. The island was elongated and aligned with the direction of the lava storms, appearing to have been shaped by numerous storms over time. As for a certain Koji, it was located on the side of the large island facing deeper into the Lava Sea. Mo Wen had automatically disregarded it; that Koji was now submerged in lava, and what remained of the large island that had once spanned twenty to thirty miles was now less than half exposed above the lava's surface.
After careful planning, Mo Wen set sail on his Xing Zhou. This time, he was not searching for treasure but rather trying to ascertain the specific shape of the island beneath him. Estimating that he had reached the edge of the island after sailing about two miles further, he began to circle around it. His divine perception cut through the lava until it touched the submerged stone wall of the island.
Inside the cave, Mo Wen was sketching on the walls, documenting his findings from that day. From his drawings, it appeared that the entire island resembled an upside-down ship submerged in lava, with the exposed narrow island representing its keel. Looking at his illustration, Mo Wen furrowed his brow—could it be that the rumors were true?
In Yinzhou City, Yin Qian had once shared some legends about the Lava Sea with him. It was said that this continent was once a core landmass for humanity during ancient times, filled with numerous sects and countless treasures within them. However, a massive volcanic eruption shattered this continent into pieces, sinking these sects and their treasures into lava. He had heard similar tales from Elder Zhu in Nameless Town; adventurers who entered the Lava Sea hoped to discover lost treasures from ancient sects. For instance, the sprouted Xiu Mu he had obtained might be a remnant of one such sect. Elder Zhu had established himself in Nameless Town since Huo Lou and had indeed encountered adventurers who found items or texts related to Ancient Legacy—some ascending realms while others perished in lava.
With these thoughts in mind, Mo Wen's frown relaxed as a greedy glint sparkled in his eyes. If this truly were an ancient sunken ship, even if it wasn't carrying treasure specifically, there would undoubtedly be valuable items aboard. However, a very practical question loomed: how could he enter the ship's interior?
Sitting down at a stone table and shaking his head, he realized he might be overly optimistic. What if it wasn't a ship? He was being too hasty. Yet one thing was certain: there were cavities within this island; it was just a matter of determining their locations at this time.
