Chapter 808

== Trap ==
A mountain appeared in front of them. It was just a hundred meters high, and its circumference was only a thousand meters. This mountain was made of skeletons. They were piled tightly together along with countless weapons and spatial rings.
The majority of the people felt their hair stand on end upon seeing it. Even those weapons and spatial rings weren't able to entice them.
"This is a trap!" Guo Ran was appalled.
Their journey here had been so calm and easy. But as soon as they arrived here, they saw this huge pile of bones. Furthermore, these skeleton's clothes hadn't completely degraded yet. They definitely had died no more than a few decades ago.
There were also some skeletons that had decayed. It had to be known that those who could come here were all top geniuses in the outside world. Their skeletons wouldn't decay like that even if given several centuries. In other words, the skeletons here had been piled up from dead experts from different periods.
Long Chen was currently looking around. He suddenly noticed a huge altar behind the mountain of skeletons. Countless runes were revolving around it, and the aura of primal chaos circulated within it.
At the center of the altar was an ancient lamp. It was nine inches tall, with a lotus flower at both the top and the bottom. Six small pillars connected the two ends. At the center was the lampwick. Long Chen was surprised to see that the wick was lit.
Long Chen sensed an extremely terrifying pressure coming from the ancient lantern. He realized that Insect Island hadn't been completely abandoned. In truth, it was still functional. It was just the trial caves that had been damaged.
== Bonethorn Bloodmoths ==
Everybody is then surrounded by Bonethorn Bloodmoths.
"Guo Ran, summon your Golden Battle Armor so you don't get instantly killed," said Long Chen.
"Ignore them. You go gather those weapons and spatial rings. In any case, your skin is thick enough. They're unable to break your defense, so this is a rare opportunity," said Long Chen quietly.
Guo Ran shot off toward the mountain of skeletons. He was incredibly fast, crazily absorbing the spoils. Although this kind of thing was a bit taboo, it was obvious that there had to be many treasures hidden inside those spatial rings.
Some Evil Path tried to chase after Guo Ran, but they were annihilated by the moth's bone thorns.
== Altar and Backstab ==
Long Chen rushed over to the altar. He was startled to find that the Blood Qi of the fallen Celestials was being rapidly pulled in by the altar. More precisely, the Blood Qi was surging toward the ancient lamp.
He was startled to see that this Blood Qi actually weakened the burning lampwick. It seemed its light had weakened a bit.
"Could it be that this huge trap is all to extinguish this ancient lamp?" Long Chen carefully touched the lamp. He found he was unable to move it. It was like it was a part of the altar.
Long Chen also didn't dare to use too much force since he was afraid of destroying it. But as more and more experts fell, the lampwick's energy weakened, and it began to shudder.
A few glowing runes appeared under the lamp. Those runes then began to rapidly dim, and the lamp started to shake. Long Chen was delighted to see that. This should be the optimal time to attempt to take the lamp.
Long Chen's hand had just touched it again when he felt a burst of pain on his back. A sharp sword pierced through his back and out his chest, blood spraying wildly.
