Chapter 1336 - Entering Another Treasury
Chapter 1336: Entering Another Treasury
“Another treasury!?” Zhao Feng froze in shock as he blurted out.
He and the little thieving cat had already obtained far too many good things from the first treasury. It was difficult to imagine that there was a second one of these treasuries. It was no wonder that the little thieving cat, after already gaining so much, was still choosing to stay in this dangerous area.
“But they must have taken some countermeasures.” Zhao Feng’s expression darkened.
He and the little thieving cat had already plundered one treasury. Even if the Heavenly Demon Hall was lacking in manpower at the moment, they must’ve added some additional security.
Zhao Feng activated his left eye and peered through the crystal palace.
“Someone’s there.” Zhao Feng quickly got a view of what was inside the blue crystal palace and spotted a single figure.
“Just a Rank Seven Ancient God? It seems like the Heavenly Demon Hall is short on men and only dispatched someone here to keep watch,” Zhao Feng softly muttered.
A treasury could not be casually walked into. Even with the little thieving cat’s help, getting into one still took some time. For this reason, the Heavenly Demon Hall only sent a person to keep watch. The moment anything strange occurred, the watcher would immediately send a warning.
With this, even if Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat successfully got in, they wouldn’t have much time to remove any treasures before the other members of the Heavenly Demon Hall came to surround and stop them.
Zhao Feng explained the situation to the little thieving cat.
Meow!
The little thieving cat was still unwilling to leave and began to discuss countermeasures with Zhao Feng.
In the end, the little thieving cat advised Zhao Feng to first copy down all the arrays and traps of the place so that it could analyze how to undo them ahead of time. In this way, they would be able to quickly undo the traps, take some treasures, and get away before the other members of the Heavenly Demon Hall arrived.
Zhao Feng thought it over. This was still a rather dangerous venture, but the chances of success were also rather high. In addition, with his eye just now, he clearly saw the treasures within the crystal palace and was tempted.
“Inside are extinct cultivation resources that the Heavenly Demon Hall gathered, and there are also many medicines and pills....” Zhao Feng appeared rather excited.
In his view, these medicines and pills had probably been developed by the Heaven’s Legacy Race before being slowly gathered up by the members of the Heavenly Demon Hall. The medicines developed by the Heaven’s Legacy Race were almost definitely extremely precious and would have miraculous effects.
Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat remained hidden in the area around the crystal palace. It only took a little while for Zhao Feng to copy down every detail of the blue crystal palace’s structure. The rest was for the little thieving cat to handle.
Meanwhile, Zhao Feng entered the Spacetime Robe to continue refining the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror.
Right when he reached eighty percent refinement of the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror:
Meow!
The little thieving cat suddenly jumped in front of Zhao Feng and meowed.
“Then let’s move out!” Zhao Feng naturally understood what the little thieving cat meant. He ceased refining the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror and left the Spacetime Robe.
Whoosh!
The little thieving cat jumped up to the blue crystal palace. It became two, two became four...
In the end, eight figures of the little thieving cat began to rummage around the blue crystal palace. It took only five seconds for all the mechanisms and arrays around the palace to be undone.
...
In the secret hall, Ancient God Nether Spring had a gloomy expression.
“Has there still been nothing!?” Ancient God Nether Spring roared.
Ever since Zhao Feng and the Heaven’s Legacy Cat escaped from the Devil Saint God Duo, not a single trace of them had been found, and just a few moments ago, Ancient God Luo Ling smoothly threw off their pursuit.
“No... yes!” The elder operating all the surveillance equipment of the Heavenly Demon Hall was startled.
“Yes, yes, yes, here...!” the blue-haired elder anxiously said.
But before he could give the exact location, Ancient God Nether Spring interrupted him; “The western treasury! They never left the core area!”
Ancient God Nether Spring’s face became even gloomier.
He had earlier determined that Zhao Feng and the Heaven’s Legacy Cat fled the core area, content with their spoils, to find an opportunity to escape. To his surprise, they had remained in hiding within the core area, placing their sights on a second treasury.
“Outrageous!” Ancient God Nether Spring furiously roared. That intruder and the Heaven’s Legacy Cat were audacious to the extreme!
The western treasury stored many long-extinct and legendary cultivation resources. These cultivation resources were practically priceless. Not even they dared to randomly touch them for fear of wasting them.
Other than that, there were also many medicines developed by the Heaven’s Legacy Race that they had gathered as well as some important experiment results of the Heavenly Demon Hall.
The first treasury had been robbed because they were caught off guard, leaving open a gap for Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat to exploit. But if a second treasury was robbed, they would become laughingstocks.
“Return to the core area – the western treasury!” Ancient God Nether Spring immediately took control of the Devil Saint God Duo and led the other members in swiftly returning to the core area.
In the outer zone of the Heavenly Demon Hall, in a room piled high with corpses, a faint spatial ripple emerged from a dark corner of the room.
“Damn! That Samsara God Eye descendant actually possesses such a powerful Rank Nine Samsara Immortal Body!” Ancient God Luo Ling was a little pale as she swallowed some pills.
The Samsara Immortal Body with the human body and dragon head was a Thunderflame Ancient Dragon, ranked 43rd among the Ten Thousand Ancient Races. If Ancient God Luo Ling hadn’t sufficiently prepared herself before beginning this operation, she would have long ago died while being pursued by that Rank Nine Samsara Immortal Body.
“I still need to go back to the core area!” Ancient God Luo Ling clenched her silver teeth.
She had still not confirmed if her little brother was dead or alive, but even if there was no chance of saving her little brother, she still had to dig up the secrets of this faction. The longer she stayed here, the more she sensed how unusual this faction was. It was definitely hiding some astonishing secret.
“That kid is probably dead by now.” Ancient God Luo Ling couldn’t help but think back to Zhao Feng.
Even someone of her own strength had nearly died, and that mysterious person who worked with her was only a peak Rank Seven. He had probably been captured by the Heavenly Demon Hall long ago.
...
“Hurry!” Zhao Feng growled.
The moment all the traps and arrays were disarmed, he and little thieving cat charged in.
Suddenly, a powerful ripple of Divine Power appeared at Zhao Feng’s side as a dazzling golden fist of divine might rushed at Zhao Feng.
“Tyrant God Fist!” a muscular man with light gold skin roared.
“Did you think I didn’t know where you were hiding?” Zhao Feng sneered.
This blue crystal palace could block out Divine Sense, but it could not block the see-through ability of his God’s Spiritual Eye. Zhao Feng clearly saw that this Rank Seven Ancient God was hiding to the side, prepared to ambush him.
Clingclang!
A shield of black metal appeared in Zhao Feng’s hand, another of the Ancient God Seal’s transformations. This golden-skinned man could do nothing against the defensive power of the Ancient God Seal.
“Gaze of the God Eye!” Zhao Feng unleashed a powerful eye-bloodline technique.
His eye of dreamy silver seemed to become an abyss that sucked in souls.
Whoosh!
A part of the golden-skinned man’s soul was immediately pulled out. After all, Zhao Feng had already reached the level of a Rank Eight Ancient God in terms of his soul. This ordinary Rank Seven Samsara Immortal Body was incapable of resisting him.
But at this moment, a powerful and shadowy Soul Intent appeared in this man’s soul. There was no need to guess; this was definitely the Soul Intent that Ancient God Nether Spring had sent over.
“You brat! You actually dared to stick around!? Then just wait for your death!” a venomous voice came out of the golden-skinned man’s mouth.
Ancient God Nether Spring had dispatched this Rank Seven Ancient God to keep a watch on the western treasury. At the slightest sign of activity, Ancient God Nether Spring would immediately know so that he could begin mobilizing his men before the Heaven’s Legacy Cat entered the treasury.
However, the Heaven’s Legacy Cat and Zhao Feng had undone the traps and arrays far too quickly. Thus, Ancient God Nether Spring could only send over his own strength in the hopes that this Samsara Immortal Body could obstruct Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat.
“Hmph! You can’t stop me!” Zhao Feng snorted, and his God Eye erupted with Origin energy.
In a flash, the Gaze of the God Eye’s power increased.
“Scoundrel! You’re seeking death!” Ancient God Nether Spring angrily roared through the Samsara Immortal Body.
Ancient God Nether Spring discovered that, even after sending over his strength, the Samsara Immortal Body was still not able to resist Zhao Feng’s eye-bloodline technique.
“Damn! This Samsara Immortal Body’s soul is too weak! It can’t endure too much of my power!” Ancient God Nether Spring angrily cursed.
He wanted to send more power to the Samsara Immortal Body so that it could contend against Zhao Feng, but alas, the Samsara Immortal Body was too weak to receive much more of his power.
“This Soul eye-bloodline technique of his could even threaten a Rank Eight Ancient God....” Ancient God Nether Spring’s eyes became grim.
Suddenly, the connection between Ancient God Nether Spring and the Samsara Immortal Body became extremely weak. The only thing he could sense was that it was still alive.
Inside the western treasury, the Samsara Immortal Body’s soul was sucked into Zhao Feng’s God Eye Dimension. Zhao Feng mobilized his Soul Intent to wrap up this soul so that it couldn’t see anything while it was inside the God Eye Dimension.
“Let’s move!”
After dealing with the Samsara Immortal Body, Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat immediately got to work.
This area had a similar structure to the first treasury. There were four metal frames, and each object on these frames had its own protective barrier.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
The two charged at separate balls of light. Because time was short, while they were analyzing how to undo the traps and arrays, they also decided on their targets.
Zhao Feng took out the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror, circulated his Lightning Intent and Lightning energy, and activated the mirror.
Boom! Hisss!
A massive bolt of white lightning condensed into a slender snake and began to ram itself against a protective barrier.
The Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror was a supreme-quality divine artifact and had already been eighty percent refined by Zhao Feng. The attacks he could use with it now were far stronger than those from high-quality offensive divine artifacts. Moreover, the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror unleashed extremely powerful lightning-type attacks.
Boom! Bang! Crash!
After three attacks, the protective barrier shattered. Zhao Feng removed a bright pill from within, its surface covered in silver patterns.
The little thieving cat was the one who decided on the targets of their heist. Zhao Feng had no idea what this pill could do, but since the little thieving cat was a Heaven’s Legacy Cat, it definitely understood the objects belonging to the Heaven’s Legacy Race. For this reason, Zhao Feng trusted in the little thieving cat’s judgment.
After seizing this pill, Zhao Feng immediately charged toward the next target.
