Thousand Shadow Mirage

Albeit the pit was pitch black, Ace could see what was inside. 

"A skeleton." Lan was already standing on the opposite side of the pit. Since Ace was already standing there unharmed, this gave courage to others. 

This pit was five-meter-deep, and it was a grave because inside was an old skeleton and its cloth was also seemed to decay completely. There wasn't any storage ring or any other thing that can be identified.

Ace didn't mind these old men standing too close to him now, they won't dare to act against him anymore especially after seeing this grave and deteriorating skeleton inside. 

He was carefully scanning the pit and skeleton inside because the dark void's sudden reaction happened right after the pit was opened. 

'There must be something that can lead us to the real core of this forest.' Ace mulled while spreading his heavenly sense deeper inside the pit.
