Chapter 1053: Countless Treasures
Chapter 1053: Countless Treasures
“Let me help you.” The turtle became shrouded in a white radiance as it placed one hand on the barrier.
The rays from it crushed the remaining mountains and rivers. It had access to the Spirit Treasure portion of the Ji Clan’s scripture and understood the way of the treasure masters. It knew how to nullify their techniques.
“Boom!” A three-meter hole finally appeared on the barrier. The group hurriedly jumped in and it closed a second after.
“The barrier can rebuild itself, don’t worry about it.” The turtle said.
The group moved forward with prudence as if they were walking on ice.
Bi Ningshuai and his grandfather wore regalias that turn them into bright expanses of light. The two expanses gradually diminished and disappeared from sight.
Though these were mere imitations, the materials were still excellent and could reach ten to twenty percent of the real thing’s potential.
Feiyun put the turtle into his pocket and adorned the dragon-phoenix robe. He used the other side with the invisible ability, allowing him to disappear from sight as well.
The Evil Woman summoned her ghost vessel. A wave of blood surrounded her and turned her into a drop of blood. It hid in Feiyun’s sleeve.
“Pop! Pop!” They came across an ocean of monstrous lightning bolts. Even paragons could be reduced to dust if struck.
Of course, they had a professional on their side – Grandpa Bi.
He took out a divine needle and sent it into the ocean. All of the lightning bolts became attracted by it so they made it past without any issue.
The second they got out, the needle was reduced to molten metal and the lightning bolts became more violent than before.
“That was close.” Bi Ningshuai wiped the sweat off his forehead and felt the soles of his feet being cold.
Grandpa Bi looked back at the molten metal and felt a deep pain from losing an expensive treasure. He gritted his teeth: “Let’s go. Since we broke through the barrier, we’re on the easiest path but there are some increasingly arduous ones later on, be on guard.”
“This is the treasury of Sacred Court we’re talking about, the place of accumulation for numerous treasures in the history of Sixth Central. if this is all it is, it would have been stolen numerous times before. Remember that we’re about to make history here.” The turtle said.
First was a stone barrier and then an ocean of lightning. The next ones were a void storm and an inferno of flames and gales.
The void zone was defeated by the Evil Woman and her vessel.
The inferno was actually tough since it was a mix of samadhi flame and murderous gales. This was hell of earth. Bi Ningshuai nearly died despite his regalia but Feiyun used Swift Samsara to save him.
“Oh? This is a hornet spirit stone, ranked eleventh.” Grandpa Bi picked up a spirit stone the size of a human head. The surface looked like a nest with numerous veins. The spirit energy within was dense.
One of them could be exchanged for ten million regular spirit stones. This particular one was exceedingly large and could be separated into fifty pieces. This was a monstrous sum.
He hurriedly put it away and became emotional: “I believe this was stored in the treasury and was blown out by the murderous gales. We’re close.”
Everyone became emotional since they were about to do something unprecedented. This would shock the world.
“Don’t celebrate so soon though, this treasury must be gigantic with different levels and murderous formations. One wrong move and it’s over. There will be experts too, if they notice us and activate all the formations, even a pseudo saint will die.” Grandpa Bi elaborated. He was an expert and has seen numerous forbidden treasuries before.
The group hid their presence again and continued onward.
A while later, they saw a palace made from violet crystals. It towered at 380 meters and floated on top of a spirit river.
This river spanned for several hundred miles and had numerous spirit stones at the bottom. The lowest rank was the boundary stone. There were draconic and meteoric stones as well.
This astounded the group since they had never seen so many in one place.
“Enough to buy the immemorial evil plot.” The Evil Woman’s eyes flashed and her fingers twitched with excitement.
“Fuck, we’re about to be rich.” Bi Ningshuai warmed up as well.
“Pop!” Grandpa Bi calmed down and slapped the back of his head: “Fool, these spirit stones aren’t the most valuable. The real treasures are inside that palace.”
This was indeed true. The stones only served to raise the palace, meaning that they were essentially bricks.
“Be careful, there are more than 800 traps outside.” He took out a jade compass and slowly walked toward the river.
“Enough of this.” The Evil Woman summoned the Immeasurable Tower and broke through numerous traps. Her tower became gigantic.
She opened the door and sucked in numerous spirit stones. This activated numerous traps. Fire balls and lightning bolts descended, making it look like the apocalypse.
“Fuck! At least warn us first!” Grandpa Bi rolled backward. If it wasn’t for his golden regalia blocking the brunt of the attack, he would have been obliterated.
She stood on top of the tower and the traps couldn’t touch her. She didn’t care about Grandpa Bi’s feelings and continued to steal the spirit stones.
“How dare you steal from the crystal palace?!” An old voice came from inside.
“Shit, there’s a guardian here, we’re spotted.” Grandpa Bi said.
Feiyun immediately activated his Grand Change Domain to seal this area, stopping the voice from being heard elsewhere.
The Evil Woman pressed one hand down and a massive palm appeared above the palace. It descended and crushed the walls. The treasures inside escaped the seals and flew everywhere.
“Die, thieves!” An old man in a blue robe appeared. He had bony cheeks and gray hair along with a monstrous level of energy within.
He raised both hands and summoned a great sphere, sending it down at the Evil Woman.
She appeared in front of him in the next second. He shuddered and staggered backward due to her nefarious aura.
“Whoosh!” She sent his head flying with a single slap, not batting an eye and wiped the blood from her hand. She then headed back to the tower.
“…” Bi Ningshuai trembled in fear.
Meanwhile, the others flew into the ruins and captured the flying treasures.
“Thirteenth-ranked marrow pill, not bad at all!” Grandpa Bi closed a box while shaking with happiness.
“Heavenly Dragon, the sword used by the sixth lord of Sacred Court when he was young, this is a saint-level weapon!” The turtle put away a draconic sword while happily laughing.
Feiyun didn’t care about these treasures. His sole focus was on the phoenix bone.
He activated his heavenly gaze but didn’t spot its aura. ‘This place might only be a small corner of the treasury, the bone might be somewhere else.’
Because the palace was destroyed, the Grand Change Domain shouldn’t be able to keep this a secret for long.
He grabbed a few precious treasures before leaving for another place. His spirit awareness was strong enough to notice the phoenix aura so this was his destination.
