These days, Liu Yong observes Bawang's situation from a third-party perspective daily. The more he watched, the more his amazement grew. The cave's surfaces that had been cleared of mud were now adorned with a striking grey-black metal. Liu Yong believed that if they continued to expand the cleaning efforts, they would undoubtedly encounter more of the same. The exposed grey-black metal hinted at something extraordinary, possibly a relic from an ancient alien civilization that had resided on the seabed for an astonishing 50,000 years.
After centuries of sediment accumulation, this enigmatic object lay concealed beneath a thick layer of matter. The outermost portion measured between 20 to 30 centimetres in thickness, while the core extended to two to three meters or even more than ten meters.
"Master, do you think we should continue cleaning?" Bawang's voice resonated within Liu Yong's mind, interrupting his contemplation.
