Chapter 11: Heading to the Treasure Vault, Emerging Full of Goods
While Ling Xiao was touched, he also cursed inwardly at these two nagging old women.
He was speechless for a moment, so he simply raised his leg and kicked Zhunti and Jieyin a few times, yelling, "Stop dawdling! Take whatever you want!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhunti and Jieyin disappeared in two afterimages.
This was probably the happiest day the two brothers had ever had since they took human form, as they received so many treasures that their hands were sore from carrying them.
Three days later, the three brothers sat in the main hall, calculating their harvest.
Zhunti laughed heartily, saying, "A total of twenty-seven low-grade innate spiritual treasures and five mid-grade innate spiritual treasures, all destined for me! Haha, my disciple is going to enjoy a life of luxury in the future!"
Compared to Zhunti, Jieyin was much more composed. After considering the treasures, he said with delight, "There are thirty low-grade innate spiritual treasures alone, six mid-grade innate spiritual treasures, and two top-grade ones!!"
"Huh? Two top-grade innate spiritual treasures? Big brother, second brother, we're best friends..." Zhunti rubbed his hands together, looking very anxious, and said, "Good brother! Give me one of the top-grade innate spiritual treasures to play with, okay?"
Jieyin smiled helplessly, "Just playing around, huh? Last time, you took a fancy to one of my top-grade spiritual treasures, saying you'd play with it for a hundred years and then return it, but you still haven't."
"Take it, remember to pay me back in the future!!"
Despite saying that, Jieyin immediately delivered a top-grade spiritual treasure to Zhunti.
After Zhunti took it, he looked at it and was so fond of it that he even performed a little trick on the spot.
At this moment, as Ling Xiao poured out the treasures he had acquired from his sea of consciousness, a series of sonic booms echoed through the void, like thunderbolts striking down.
In their line of sight, streaks of dazzling light floated in the void.
Zhunti and Jieyin stared in disbelief.
The five treasures were a bronze cauldron, a round mirror, a four-foot-long sword, a fan forged from immortal gold, and a dark, simple and unadorned bead.
The first four treasures, without exception, all radiated innate, indestructible spiritual light, and their power fluctuated greatly, clearly indicating that they were top-grade innate spiritual treasures.
Only the dark, unadorned beads, whose appearance made it impossible to discern their grade as spiritual treasures, resembled scrap.
"This..." Zhunti said incredulously, "The three of us brothers chose them together just now, how come you, eldest brother, could find four top-grade spiritual treasures, but we couldn't?"
Jieyin couldn't understand it either; the three of them were choosing treasures together, so why was there such a big difference in quality?
Ling Xiao flicked his sleeve, drawing all the treasures into his sea of consciousness. He stood up and said, "Let's go out first. I'll tell you why later."
The three brothers left the Dragon Palace treasure vault, and Ling Xiao received what he was entitled to.
Of course, Ling Xiao did not exhaust the resources; even though he reaped a considerable harvest, he only took less than one-tenth of the rare and precious materials from the Dragon Clan's treasury.
Ling Xiao did not want to take advantage of any opportunity, because the Dragon Clan was, after all, a vassal force under Ling Xiao's command.
Taking more doesn't feel like taking your own; it doesn't give you that satisfying feeling...
Compared to readily available opportunities and treasures.
It's more fulfilling to earn something through skillful deception.
In short, this trip was very fruitful.
Ling Xiao not only broke through his cultivation level from the mid-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm to the late-stage of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
He is only one opportunity away from reaching the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
Ling Xiao had a premonition that as long as he found another innocent victim to exploit, he would definitely be able to break through to the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm.
And in the primordial world, what's least lacking is countless great traitors...
The Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Two Demon Emperors, the Three Pure Ones, Nuwa, Fuxi…
These are the giants who would later become famous throughout the ages.
In Ling Xiao's eyes, they were all just one crop after another of leeks to be harvested!
now,
I've got it, little brother! I've got the treasure!
All that's missing before we can grow bigger and stronger is a mount.
Thinking this, Ling Xiao turned his gaze to the group of dragons not far away, who were rubbing their hands together and looking at him with fawning eyes.
Mount!
There's one right here!
Which young man hasn't dreamed of coming to the cultivation world, riding a divine dragon or phoenix, soaring through the sky, and blinding the onlookers?
Ling Xiao was once a boy, but his youth was just a dream. Now, it's like the shot he fired eighteen years ago, hitting him right between the eyebrows!
At this point, it has become art!
Aside from the issue of mounts, there's also the Three Immortal Islands!!
Zhulong is knowledgeable and experienced, and the dragon clan is the local power in the East Sea.
And those three fairy islands are within the sphere of influence of the East China Sea.
If you ask him, you should be able to get some clues.
Ling Xiao pondered this in his heart.
Currently, he possesses the Chaos Treasure Deceiving Heaven Demon Lotus, the Innate Treasure Demon Slaying Halberd, the Innate Treasure Concealing Earth Cauldron, and the Nine Nether Rotten Soil.
There are also four top-grade innate spiritual treasures.
Even if we don't find the three great immortal islands, even if we find just one of them, it will probably be rich in treasures.
Spiritual roots and spiritual fruits are resources for cultivation.
There's also the Three Lights Divine Water, various innate lotus platforms, and rare immortal materials for refining weapons and pills...
If we don't seize these innate treasures before the great calamity of the Lich King arrives, they will become increasingly scarce in the world in the future.
As you can see, by the time of the later Investiture of the Gods and Journey to the West tribulations, acquired spiritual treasures had become quite common...
Since Hongjun hasn't become a saint yet, Lingxiao might as well take this time to collect treasures and improve his strength.
At that moment, as the three brothers stepped out of the palace gate, Zhunti couldn't help but ask, "Big brother, what exactly is it that allowed you to find a top-grade innate spiritual treasure?"
Ling Xiao said, "It's actually very simple. My origins are stronger than yours. Innate spiritual treasures all possess sentience. Perhaps when you looked at it, it deliberately didn't want you to choose it, deliberately concealing its divine light, like something covered in dust."
"But when I stood in front of them, it was a completely different scene, radiant and joyful."
Upon hearing this, Jieyin and Zhunti were filled with emotion.
Lingbao is so snobbish too!
However, the two brothers were not jealous of Ling Xiao at all; they were too grateful and respectful to even think about it.
They would only feel joy because Ling Xiao's foundation was strong.
In front of the Dragon Palace Treasury, on the boundless plaza, Zhulong, along with all the high-ranking members of the Four Seas Dragon Clan, welcomed Lingxiao.
On the floor made of rare and precious celestial stones, the Fourth Princess of the East Sea was bound by chains, kneeling on the ground, her pretty face showing fear and despair.
She is actually very beautiful, with a mature and sophisticated aura, a heroic and dashing appearance, and a stunning face.
As the fourth daughter of Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East Sea, she went through thousands of battles, big and small, and made great contributions to the dragon race.
Having lived for two hundred thousand years, he had already reached the peak of the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm. If he does not die today, he will surely advance to the Daluo realm in the future.
At this moment, both the Dragon Mother and Ao Guang looked at her with regret in their eyes.
She had spoken rudely when Ling Xiao visited the East Sea Dragon Palace before.
Now that Ling Xiao has become the new master of the Dragon Clan, his status and position even surpass those of the Ancestral Dragon.
Therefore, the Dragon Mother and Ao Guang were willing to show their utmost sincerity by killing their own daughter in front of Ling Xiao in order to eliminate Ling Xiao's estrangement from the Dragon Clan.
Which parent could bear to watch their own flesh and blood die in front of them?
However, for the rise of the dragon race, for the future glory of the dragon race.
Let alone the death of one dragon, even if it were the death of thousands upon thousands, Zhulong and the Dragon Kings of the Four Seas would be willing to pay such a price.
Zhulong shook his head and sighed. He was a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, how could he not see the future potential of the Fourth Princess of the East Sea?
