Chapter 306: Yellow Wyrm’s Three Treasures

Translator: CKtalon  Editor: CKtalon

At present, Fiend Sovereign Jadeface and Palatial Lord Black Dragon were inside the Grotto-heaven. They had no way of communicating with the outside world. The secret of the Yellow Wyrm Grotto-heaven had yet to be exposed, but if either one of them were to die, Cloudfiend Mountain or Po Cloud Lake’s Nine Demon alliance would definitely launch a thorough investigation. When that happened, the Yellow Wyrm Grotto-heaven would definitely to be exposed. Many of the treasures within might be snatched away!

Therefore, capturing him alive was the best choice for the time being.

“This Jadeface’s body is only of an ordinary grade. It can’t be considered overly powerful. It might be of use to fiendcelestials or fiendish demons but humans or the Water race would have little use for it.” Qin Yun shook his head gently. With a wave of his hand, countless Sword Qi flew out and rapidly diced up Jadeface’s corpse! Unique races like the dragons or phoenixes would have magical corpses if they reached the Essence Soul realm. After all, they had extraordinary blood running through them.

As for ordinary fiendcelestials, their bodies were of limited use.

“His Cosmic Bag is actually slightly smaller than Elder Sword’s Cosmic Bag.” Qin Yun quickly rummaged through the treasures Jadeface left behind. There were a total of two first-grade Dharma treasures as well as medicinal pills and treasures. Qin Yun stored them away and continued dismantling the Firecloud Columns.

After dismantling the chamber, he rushed to another spot.

As Flood Dragon King had provided him with detailed intelligence, Qin Yun knew exactly where all the important spots and precious treasures were in the Yellow Wyrm corpse despite its maze-like construction.

His efficiency was naturally much higher as a result.

After dismantling two regions one after another, Qin Yun arrived at a third region.

“This is the Treasure Repository.” Qin Yun looked at the sealed hall in front of him. “Whatever could be moved away from Treasure Repository has been moved by Flood Dragon King ahead of time. The items that remain in here are unmovable. However, I might as well give it a try.”

Boom!

The hall’s sealed door was pushed open by Qin Yun.

The Treasure Repository’s interior was empty. At a glance, only three items remained.

The first item was a massive stone ax. It was embedded into the ground like a fixture. It was difficult to even move it. The second item was a scroll placed on a stone platform. The third item was a stone wall. There were a total of 189 palm imprints on the stone wall.

Qin Yun could not help but feel enticed when he swept his gaze.

“They are all extraordinary.” Qin Yun felt a little excited.

“Let me give each one a closer look.”

Qin Yun first went to the stone ax. With a wave of his hand, seven flying swords instantly flew out and rapidly extracted the ax.

It was fixed in place and nearly unmovable.

Qin Yun took ten minutes to destroy the seal.

“Boom!” The stone ax fell to the ground, causing the entire Treasure Repository to shake. Qin Yun went forward and grabbed the thick ax hilt with both hands.

“It’s truly heavy. I can’t move it at all with my physical strength. I have to use my Dharmic powers.” Qin Yun was somewhat surprised. His physical strength was very high after cultivating a purplish-gold Golden Core. Yet, he was still unable to move the stone ax at all. He only managed to do so by using his purplish-gold Golden Core Dharmic powers!

He infused his Dharmic powers into the stone ax and rapidly refined it as his own.

During the refinement process, he also learned about the ax.

“Transcendent-grade Dharma treasure, Skywoe Ax. That Flood Dragon King sure has poor judgment. He couldn’t even recognize such a treasure!” Qin Yun was pleasantly surprised. “This ax is just too heavy. It’s only usable by people with extremely powerful bodies! The Other Realm Yellow Wyrm left this ax here in hopes that a descendant who attains the Essence Soul would appear. With the yellow flood dragons’ bodies, the Skywoe Ax would be very suitable once they reach the Essence Soul realm!”

“Contract!”

The Skywoe Ax rapidly shrank to about ten feet long. Following that, Qin Yun put it away into his Cosmic Bag.

Next, Qin Yun came in front of the stone platform where the scroll was placed. The seven flying swords rapidly tore through the sealing array formation and before long, he held the scroll in hand.

“This is?” When the scroll unfurled in front of him, Qin Yun was astounded.

“Map? This is a map that leads to an Other Realm?”

Qin Yun was somewhat astonished but he thought carefully. “Years ago, did the Other Realm Yellow Wyrm come to this world using this path?”

The map’s value was difficult to determine.

To the top existences of this world, such as Human Emperor and Ancestral Master Zhang, exploring the Other Realm was an easy matter. However, this was the first time Qin Yun had seen a map that led to an Other Realm!

“I should store it away for now.”

Qin Yun quickly stored the map away as he looked at the third treasure.

The third treasure was a gigantic stone wall.

Qin Yun immediately controlled his seven flying swords and spent about ten minutes cracking open the seal. At the instant the seal was cracked open, the stone wall suffused rows of text—

“I traveled the cosmos and passed by a desolate planet. On it, I found this stone wall! There were 189 palm prints on it. When I saw it back then, I was shocked. It was the most impressive art I have ever seen in my life. It’s even superior to the Skydemon heritage I had obtained. I immediately cleaved apart the stone wall and took it away! This palm art is infinitely profound and contains the Dao of the world. Although I do not know who created it, they are a senior I am most impressed with. Descendants who receive it have to treasure it! Others should not be informed of it or it would only attract danger. Remember! Remember my words wisely!”

This text disappeared after a while.

Qin Yun was somewhat surprised.

“What? This is most impressive art that the Other Realm Yellow Wyrm had seen in his life?” Qin Yun looked at the stone wall, feeling somewhat delighted but dejected at the same time.

He felt dejected because it was a set of palm arts! It was a combat-related art and not a cultivation Dharmic formulation.

As a sword immortal, reaching the Connate Golden Core was the limit. There was still no Dharmic formulation that could condense an Essence Soul for sword immortals to this day.

“Let me see what moves are available.” Qin Yun began calming his mind as he studied it carefully.

At Qin Yun’s level, palm arts, saber arts, fist arts, and sword arts were not so different.

Every Dao led to the same endpoint.

What Qin Yun paid attention to was the Dao that underlay the moves.

As he studied it, he found himself engrossed in it. The reason why the Other Realm Yellow Wyrm extolled the stone wall’s palm arts was that it was truly impressive.

“Impressive.”

“The fusion of emotion and moves can be this perfect.”

“I dare say that my Sword of Heaven Earth is intricate enough. But this is even more so.” Qin Yun was reeling in shocked excitement. The unnamed senior expert’s palm arts shared similar aspects with Qin Yun’s Sword Dao! Furthermore, it was even more brilliant! Qin Yun was at present contemplating the perfect fusion of the Paramount Emotions and his sword moves. The stone wall’s palm arts opened up a brand new world for him, giving him greater insights.

However strong you are, there is always someone stronger!

Never believe that you are sufficiently perfect! After being made aware of a brand new world, Qin Yun was fully impressed. He was also extremely touched.

It was no wonder the Other Realm Yellow Wyrm was so excited that he cut out the stone wall to move it away when he saw it on a desolate planet! He wanted to look at it all the time.

“This is my third dismantling spot. That Flood Dragon King sure is dumb. He felt that the stone wall’s palm arts were completely incomprehensible! He couldn’t see the map either. He could not tell what kind of treasure the stone ax is. As such, he thought too little of these treasures,” thought Qin Yun. “If I had known earlier, I would have come to the Treasure Repository first.”

From Flood Dragon King’s point of view, he determined that the chamber’s Cloudwater Stone Soul and the Firecloud Columns were very valuable.

Flood Dragon King could not determine the value of the three items in the Treasure Repository. This was why the Treasure Repository was the third to be dismantled by Qin Yun.

Who could guess… that this ended up being the greatest harvest!

Elsewhere.

At the heart of the Yellow Wyrm corpse.

“Boom!” Black Dragon had transformed into a black dragon as he swiped down at the gigantic heart. Its surface stirred with array formations but it was impossible to crack open.

“It must be that little fish demoness.” Yellow Surge was feeling extremely indignant. “The little fish demoness must have entered, resulting in the heart’s closure. Once it is sealed, it becomes highly secure.”

“Qin Yun brought that little fish demoness to meet that Yellow Wyrm.” Black Dragon landed to the side and transformed into an elder with a dragon’s head. He said with a frown, “Back when you first sensed the opening of the Grotto-heaven, it must have been because that little fish demoness was being let in. We were one step too slow.”

“Whatever.” Black Dragon said, “Surge, we should quickly search for treasures. Once we are done searching, we can come again after the hundred days are up! Perhaps the power contained within the heart allows for another round of baptism.”

“Alright.” Yellow Surge nodded. He too was out of ideas.

“Let’s go.”

Black Dragon led Yellow Surge around as they searched for treasures.

“Hmph! It must be Jadeface. He got here first and dismantled this area.” Black Dragon looked at the hall that had completely collapsed. He grunted angrily. “Let’s go. Onward to other places.”

Black Dragon searched constantly and also discovered a few treasures. He dismantled the areas in delight. The more he dismantled, the happier he felt.

Time continued to fly.

In a blink of an eye, a day had passed.

“Strange, I have traveled probably half of this Yellow Wyrm Grotto-heaven’s interior. I have dismantled many areas but I have yet to encounter Jadeface?” Black Dragon was somewhat puzzled. The Yellow Wyrm corpse’s interior was only so large. Even if it resembled a maze, they were bound to meet after one full day. He found it strange. He was somewhat afraid of Jadeface so he was constantly vigilant.

“Grandfather, I can’t push open this hall’s door,” shouted Yellow Surge suddenly.

“Oh?”

Black Dragon walked over.

The hall happened to be the Treasure Repository. Qin Yun was inside studying the stone wall’s palm arts in complete obsession. He decided to shut the door so that he wouldn’t be disturbed.

“You can’t open it? Let me give it a shot.” Black Dragon walked over. With a wave of his hand, surging Essence Soul Dharmic powers charged out. They struck the door, causing the door frame to tremble.

“It has been shut from the inside?” Black Dragon was perplexed. “Is Jadeface inside? Why did he deliberately shut the door after entering it? Could this place be an area filled with extremely important treasures?”

“Open up!”

Upon realizing this possibility, Black Dragon turned somewhat anxious. His Essence Soul Dharmic powers surged as he struck the door’s hall again and again.

Peng! Peng! Peng…

The palace door rumbled.

And in the Treasure Repository’s interior, Qin Yun was engrossed in his study of the palm art like he was in a dream. Suddenly, he heard a loud rumble as he looked at the shut door. “It’s so noisy!”

“Boom.” The hall’s door finally blasted open as a gigantic black dragon claw struck out and sent the hall’s door flying.

Black Dragon had retracted his claws and strode in with Yellow Surge. “Fiend Sovereign Jadeface, by hiding here… Oh? It’s you? Qin Yun?”

Black Dragon looked at Qin Yun, baffled.
