Chapter 779: Treasure Everywhere

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

“Found it,” Lan Scarlet said calmly.

“Lan Scarlet’s reputation is well-deserved!” Man Ge exclaimed. “With only two-thirds of the secret realm keys, she deduced the entrance’s location.”

“More precisely, it’s the two-thirds key of two demon shillings,” Lan Scarlet explained. “The six demon shillings are interconnected, possessing a unique connection, which allows us to deduce the entrance.”

“Here.” Man Ge handed a demon shilling to Lan Scarlet. “I always keep my promises.”

“Don’t worry, I have no interest in the inheritance of Demon Venerable Meng Qi,” Lan Scarlet assured. “His top demon core is his most valuable possession, ideal for the sky wheel bloodline, but useless to me.”

“Rest assured, if there are any treasures of life in the sealed hub, they are all yours,” Man Ge smiled.

“Happy cooperation,” Lan Scarlet’s frail-winged wings shimmered behind her. “Let’s go in.”

“What’s there to fear? We’re far ahead now.” Man Ge laughed.

“Indeed.”

…

“Thank you, Sister Xia,” Liang Tianyue said with a cute expression.

“You’re welcome,” Xia Ludi replied softly.

“Sister Xia, your knowledge is truly profound,” Liang Tianyue smiled. The demon shilling in her hand lit up as she waved and said, “See you.”

Swoosh! Liang Tianyue quickly disappeared.

“Why help her, Sister Xia?” Hai Ruyi was puzzled.

“Even if I don’t help her, Liang Tianyue will soon enter the seal on her own,” Xia Ludi explained. “She has the demon shilling, destined to compete for Demon Venerable Monchi’s relic.”

“Since we’re allies, why not extend a helping hand?”

“You’re very kind, Ludi,” Loren chimed in.

“Entering the seal has its pros and cons,” Xia Ludi explained softly. “The dangers inside are indescribable, and there may not even be any treasures of life.”

“Even if Liang Tianyue’s luck is extraordinary, obtaining Demon Venerable Meng Qi’s relic may not significantly increase her Sky merit.”

“So why not assist her?”

“Helping others for mutual benefit is the true essence of an alliance.”

…

“Where is it?”

“Where’s the entrance?”

Xiong Le gritted his teeth, feeling increasingly impatient.

He knew that every passing minute decreased his chances of obtaining Demon Venerable Meng Qi’s treasures.

Though he had the demon shilling, he wasn’t the only one with it.

The treasures belonged to the first one to reach them!

“Try again!” Xiong Le’s consciousness connected once more.

He wanted to see if there were any clues about the current secret realm key. Suddenly…

Hmm?

He sensed the call of the demon shilling.

Were there other demon shillings nearby?

Swoosh!

Xiong Le quickly retracted his consciousness. Time and space shifted, and he instantly disappeared.

Hurry, hurry, hurry!

He felt the call of the demon shilling close by.

Thud! Xiong Le appeared in midair.

Looking down, he saw a figure with two wings holding the demon shilling, then disappearing suddenly.

The corners of Xiong Le’s mouth curled into an uncontrollable smile of joy.

He was lucky!

…

Swoosh!

“This is the seal’s core,” Wang Ye surveyed his surroundings.

Entering from the exterior of the cube-shaped seal into its interior was vastly different from the surging life force within the secret realm.

Here, there was no life force.

Only boundless demonic energy pervaded, brimming with innate power.

It felt like a realm of death.

“There’s a subtle pressure of willpower.” Wang Ye cautiously explored.

Now, being alone, there was no room for error.

“The treasure should still be here,” Wang Ye, though uncertain of his ranking in entering, sensed this as the potential endpoint of the treasure hunt mission.

Once Demon Venerable Meng Qi’s treasure was secured, the treasure hunt mission would likely conclude.

“It’s rather peculiar,” Wang Ye puzzled.

The seal’s core lacked any life force.

Why was there a life force outside, still in a state of recovery and growth?

Shouldn’t the two be unified?

Moreover, whence came this faint pressure?

The vibrant wasteland had long since perished.

Without the original willpower, whence this pressure?

“Could it be… that what Demon Venerable Meng Qi left behind was a treasure of willpower?” Wang Ye vaguely sensed something amiss, yet couldn’t quite articulate it.

Regardless of the reason, his objective remained unchanged.

To obtain the ultimate treasure!

Hmm?

Wang Ye’s countenance stiffened, halting his steps.

He sensed the formidable aura of a six-winged dimension lord not far behind him.

More precisely, it was at the entrance he had used.

Goodness, tailing me?

The sacred blood blade materialized in his hand, and Wang Ye’s gaze hardened with intent to kill.

In the demon secret realm, they were adversaries, not allies.

Here, they were the most direct competitors.

“Two-winged Undying,” Xiong Le’s robust form materialized. He locked eyes with Wang Ye, a smirk gracing his lips as his formidable aura emanated. “Thanks.”

“To express my gratitude, allow me to escort you to the hell.”

Boom!

Xiong Le attacked directly.

One less competitor meant one more opportunity to acquire treasures.

Yet, the environment here made him uneasy. Controlling the innate great path of spacetime was challenging, and his assaults were repeatedly hindered.

Most crucially…

The opponent was no pushover.

Hundred Refined Saber Technique!

Wang Ye’s saber grew even more potent!

The basic standard saint body, sixty-four times the indestructible body, superior Undying!

With his formidable close-combat prowess, even without transfiguration, his path of the saber remained unstoppable!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The two sides exchanged blows for dozens of rounds in the blink of an eye, quickly figuring out each other’s trump card.

Neither was simple!

Wang Ye was confident in defeating his opponent.

But he couldn’t kill him.

This towering and robust Sky race was unusually full of energy, and his willpower was formidable.

Moreover, he seemed to be holding back his true strength, not revealing his full potential.

Anyone capable of obtaining the demon shilling was certainly not to be underestimated.

Xiong Le, too, ceased underestimating his opponent.

The two-winged mixed-blood Sky before him was formidable!

While he might have been confident outside, the limited time and space here meant he likely couldn’t overpower his opponent.

“Cooperation?” Wang Ye proposed.

“Are you telling a joke!” Xiong Le scoffed. “Do I need to cooperate with you, a two-winged?”

“Without me, you wouldn’t even enter the seal’s core,” Wang Ye stated. “Are you sure you can find Meng Qi’s treasure before me?”

Xiong Le’s expression shifted slightly, warily asking, “Why do you want to cooperate with me?”

“You’re strong,” Wang Ye replied. “Moreover, we’re not the only ones vying for the treasure. There are still four demon shillings and four opponents. If we join forces, we’ll have the upper hand.”

“How do we cooperate?” Xiong Le pondered.

“Two for five,” Wang Ye proposed. “We’ll take what we need from the treasures we obtain. For example, Great Path gem treasures and treasure of life will be mine, while high-dimensional spiritual tools and Immortal Herbs Spiritual Plant will be yours. Don’t worry about the details, we’ll split it fifty-fifty.”

Xiong Le deliberated.

Honestly, the proposition was acceptable.

Furthermore, as a high-level six-winged dimension lord, he undoubtedly surpassed the two-winged Sky.

Once they left, he could easily handle Wang Ye.

Regardless, he held the initiative.

“Agreed.” Xiong Le decided after careful consideration.

“Happy cooperation.” Wang Ye smiled.

In such perilous surroundings, he needed a pawn to explore and potentially make mistakes.

Moreover, the seal hadn’t been fully deciphered yet, leaving too many unanswered questions.

It was best to proceed cautiously.

Most importantly…

Despite his opponent’s strength, Wang Ye was even stronger!

Both sides exchanged information.

Wang Ye learned that Xiong Le was a commander from the Barbarian Ancestral Realm.

“What a coincidence. I’ve interacted with many teams from the Barbarian Ancestral Realm before, and they’ve been quite generous,” Wang Ye remarked.

“Haha, the warriors of our Barbarian Ancestral Realm are known for their generosity,” Xiong Le chuckled.

“Let’s hope so,” Wang Ye said, tossing a demon shilling to Xiong Le. “This is for the tribe’s inheritance. With the residual energy of the demon venerable, it will help you locate treasures faster. The more you have, the better your senses will be. Give it a try.”

“Alright,” Xiong Le hesitated.

He feigned connecting his consciousness to the demon shilling, showing a hint of fatigue.

Seeing Wang Ye’s lack of reaction, he relaxed and began to sense with confidence.

With two demon shillings, his perception was much clearer!

“Let’s go!” Xiong Le didn’t hesitate, swiftly flying ahead.

He almost had the exact location figured out!

Wang Ye trailed behind.

He could tell that Xiong Le had his agenda, holding onto his demon shilling without letting go, clearly aiming to seize the initiative.

Let him have it.

The one who stands out gets shot.

…

It was massive!

The seal center was like a whole world.

Even though there was no life force, the boundless innate energy was everywhere.

It spread evenly throughout the entire world, blending with the demonic energy.

Surprisingly serene.

No high-dimensional universe beasts, no treasures of life, and no Immortal Herb Spiritual Plant.

Because there was no life force here.

But there were treasures.

“A high-dimensional spiritual tool.” Wang Ye and Xiong Le soon found the first treasure.

A medium-grade high-dimensional spiritual tool lay quietly there, obviously valuable but attracting no attention.

They exchanged glances.

Wang Ye smiled and gestured to take it.

He had no use for high-dimensional spiritual tools.

“Then I won’t refuse.” Xiong Le accepted it with a smile.

They continued forward.

Soon, they sensed a new energy reaction.

A medium-grade Great Path gem treasure.

“It’s my turn to take it.” Wang Ye naturally didn’t hesitate.

This was good stuff!

With his own will, not only could he use it, but it would also yield excellent results.

“…Alright.” Xiong Le felt a bit regretful.

But they had agreed beforehand, so there was no choice.

They continued to explore.

Picking up various treasures along the way!

The treasures were mostly of low-grade and medium-grade, with a fair amount of medium-grade ones, but high-grade treasures were unseen.

Both sighed.

Treasures were everywhere!

“A treasure of life?” Wang Ye made another discovery.

He took out a green, bamboo-like treasure, his eyes sparkling.

Putting it into the badge space, it instantly increased by 1000 points of Sky merit, quite valuable.

The ranking that had been overtaken by Battle Team No. 8 once again rose to the top position.

Wang Ye didn’t mind.

What he cared about was the absence of a life force in the seal center. So where did the treasure of life come from?

“The demon shilling’s senses are getting stronger and stronger. We’re very close to Demon Venerable Meng Qi’s treasure,” Xiong Le said.

“Agreed.” Wang Ye nodded.

Did the treasure of life leak out from the land of treasures?

They continued forward.

Not long after, a winding path led to a secluded area.

They entered a unique region amidst the dense demonic energy. Two figures in the distance instantly caught their eyes.

Swoosh! Swoosh!

They locked eyes!

Tension rose, hostility thick.

Wang Ye and Xiong Le looked at Lan Scarlet and Man Ge not far away, their gaze shifting to the three-way intersection ahead.

It seemed they had reached their destination.
