Upon hearing Leviathan's words, Zhou Wen's mind raced, and he immediately realized that Leviathan wanted him to leave the stomach wall space and enter a treasure cave.

Upon receiving this information, Zhou Wen's anxiety instantly dissipated.

"It's alright, as long as the Leviathan transformation doesn't cause any problems." The unexpected situation had truly left Zhou Wen at a loss.

But then a sense of tension rose in his heart. The voice of the transformed Leviathan clearly stated that he needed to leave the stomach wall space.

Zhou Wen had been in this world for nine days, and this was the first time he had encountered an event that required him to leave the stomach wall space. The outside world was full of unknowns for him, and going out without knowing anything was obviously very dangerous.

After much hesitation, Zhou Wen decided to go out and explore the treasure cave. Since it was called a treasure cave, there must be good things hidden inside.

So Zhou Wen first had Jiang Haitao make him a wooden shield, then, wearing a suit of spiked armor and carrying a fishbone knife, he slowly entered the esophagus.

The esophagus was pitch black. Zhou Wen used his headlamp to scan the inside of the esophagus, which was about 1.5 meters in diameter. He had to bend over to pass through it.

To avoid the spikes attached to his spiked armor injuring the esophagus of his Leviathan form, Zhou Wen returned to the stomach wall space, put his spiked armor into the supply box, and then carried the supply box back into his esophagus.

Zhou Wen crouched down and, relying on the light of his headlamp, slowly made his way forward. Because the ground was very slippery, Zhou Wen walked very carefully. After walking about seven or eight meters, he successfully left the esophagus.

The space ahead suddenly opened up, but it was also pitch black. The light from his headlamp seemed to be swallowed up in this dark space, having no effect whatsoever. However, Zhou Wen was not afraid, because he knew that he was currently inside the mouth of the illusory Leviathan.

In this world, the safest place is inside the body of the transformed Leviathan, so Zhou Wen doesn't need to worry about any dangerous creatures lurking in the darkness.

However, the next step was to leave the Leviathan and enter the treasure cave. Zhou Wen squatted down, opened the supply box, put on the spiked armor, and temporarily put the heaviest spiked breastplate into his equipment slot.

After putting on his gear, Zhou Wen took off his headlamp and manually charged it to ensure it wouldn't fail him in a critical moment.

Having made all the necessary preparations, Zhou Wen held the shield in front of his chest with his left hand and gripped the fishbone knife tightly in his right, and began to walk forward step by step.

After walking five or six meters, the light from the headlamp shone on a white wall with a texture like a brush.

Zhou Wen stepped forward and examined it closely. The entire wall was made up of individual tendrils. When he touched it, the texture was not as soft as a brush, but rather as tough as bamboo strips.

"These must be the whiskers that the Transformation Leviathan uses to filter food." Zhou Wen didn't know what the Transformation Leviathan's teeth actually looked like, so he could only make a rough guess.

To get out, you definitely have to climb over this toothed wall first. Fortunately, the toothed wall is not high, only two meters high, and you can climb it with a little jumping.

However, considering that the spiked armor he was wearing was too heavy, and also worried about the dangers outside, Zhou Wen ultimately chose to wear the spiked helmet and spiked leg armor, and temporarily put the other armor in the supply box.

Of course, the most crucial piece of equipment, the breastplate, should be kept in the equipment slot so that it can protect the upper body in case of danger.

Zhou Wen threw the supply box up with force, then jumped up, grabbed the top of the whiskers with his hands, and with a sudden burst of strength, easily climbed up.

"This 1.5 power wasn't added for nothing," Zhou Wen thought with delight.

If Zhou Wen had only 7 points of strength before, it would have taken him a lot of effort to climb up, unlike now where it was so easy.

The moment he climbed up, Zhou Wen put on the spiked breastplate with a thought. He used his headlamp to observe the area and found that there was a rock wall in front of him.

Finding no danger, Zhou Wen quickly put on his spiked armor and put away his spiked breastplate. Then, holding his shield and fishbone knife, he began to feel along the rock wall in front of him, searching for the cave entrance on the barbed wire.

After searching for a while, Zhou Wen found a cave in the rock wall that was only one meter in diameter.

"Could this be the entrance to the treasure cave?" Looking at the dark and cramped cave, Zhou Wen's heart pounded. The space inside was too small; he could only crawl forward. If he encountered danger, even turning around would be difficult.

"Damn it! Whatever, the bigger the storm, the more valuable the fish. To survive in this world, facing danger is necessary!"

Zhou Wen recalled that when he first came to this world, he almost died from lack of oxygen while carrying seaweed, and then he was attacked by anchor worms. In less than ten days, he had been through life and death several times. There was never a way to live peacefully in this world.

With a fierce determination, he threw the supply box into the cave, then, bracing himself with the wooden shield, he crawled inside.

The interior of the cave is still entirely made of rock, as if something had been deliberately carved out of it.

Zhou Wen lay prone on the ground, with the supply box tied to his back with a strip of cloth. He placed the wooden shield at the front, so that it could withstand any attacks from any aggressive creatures.

After climbing for about ten meters, Zhou Wen's forehead was already covered in sweat.

"Fortunately, I don't have claustrophobia." Zhou Wen stopped to rest for a moment, looking at the narrow, dark, and gradually damp cave, and muttered to himself.

After resting, they continued forward, but after advancing another ten meters or so, Zhou Wen realized that something was wrong.

The cave was getting increasingly damp, and water had begun to accumulate on the ground. Zhou Wen tilted his head back slightly and shone the light from his headlamp forward, only to see a shimmering expanse of water reflecting the light.

"Damn it..." Zhou Wen cursed under his breath and continued forward, his body entering the puddles.

As they continued forward, the water level rose higher and higher, eventually occupying half of the cave space. Zhou Wen was in even more discomfort now, his body submerged in the water while his head was tilted back, making his posture extremely uncomfortable.

"Clap!"

Just as Zhou Wen was crawling forward in a painful posture, something fell on his head.

Zhou Wen was worried that it was something bad, so he quickly touched it with his hand and felt a sticky blob. When he took it off and looked at it with his headlamp, he saw that his hand was covered with translucent mucus.

Zhou Wen shook his hand disgustedly, trying to get rid of the slime, but suddenly, something swam across his left arm underwater, startling him so much that he raised his left arm as if he had been electrocuted.

Because the movement of raising his hand was too sudden, a large amount of water splashed up on the surface, creating a loud noise that began to echo continuously in the silent cave.
