Chapter 199 Demon Emperor's Treasure Vault 2
"Ruyi Immortal Gold, Void Immortal Gold, Divine Mark Purple Gold, Dao Tribulation Gold, Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold, and Eternal Blue Gold... I'm rich! I'm rich now!"
Looking at the neatly arranged pieces of immortal gold material in front of him, Hao Chen's smile stretched almost to his ears.
I had imagined the Demon Emperor was wealthy, but I never expected him to be this wealthy. Divine materials that are rarely seen in ordinary times are stored at the entrance of his treasure vault.
"I wonder what treasures are inside the vault. Could a celestial artifact possibly pop out?"
Zhan Hu, who was standing to the side, was also excited. He and Hao Chen had originally planned to take advantage of Su Li and the others being in a state of enlightenment so that they could plunder the treasure vault ahead of time.
Even if Su Li wakes up, he won't know what they found in the treasure vault. Whatever's in the treasure vault will be up to them to say.
This also prevented forces like the Qingqiu Holy Land from using this as an excuse to cause trouble after learning that they had found something good.
Although Zhanhu didn't think his master would be afraid of these forces, he figured it was better to avoid trouble.
But the process went so smoothly that as soon as they arrived at the entrance of the treasure vault, it opened automatically as if it were sentient, revealing the divine gold and materials at the entrance.
If neither of them had been unaware of the threat, they would probably have thought it was a trap, a deliberate attempt to lure them into a killing formation.
Unable to resist the temptation, Hao Chen and Zhan Hu immediately began their sweeping search, picking out their favorite treasures.
Hao Chen took a liking to the Ruyi Immortal Gold, the Divine Mark Purple Gold, and the Void Immortal Gold, wanting to use these immortal golds to reforge his great treasure.
"How extravagant! Back then, my brick only used a small piece of Divine Mark Purple Gold, but now there is an entire square of Divine Mark Purple Gold waiting for me to enjoy it."
The thought that the brick that had been with him for so many years could no longer keep up with his cultivation level made Hao Chen feel heartbroken.
Now, with the addition of the Ruyi Immortal Gold, his bricks can not only change size at will, but also transform into any shape. You could say that with just one brick, he has knives, forks, swords, and halberds.
Moreover, by incorporating a large amount of divine traces and purple gold, his bricks can better complement his World Tree, imprinting the laws of myriad paths.
As its name suggests, Void Immortal Gold possesses the profound mysteries of the void. Hao Chen thought that if his brick were infused with Void Immortal Gold, it could be hidden in the void during an attack, and could potentially knock out a Celestial Venerable by surprise.
Not only Hao Chen, but Zhan Hu also happily put away the Eternal Mark Blue Gold and a piece of Tiger Soul Platinum the size of a human head.
At this moment, Zhanhu thought that when he returned, he would ask his master to help him reforge the Chiyou Sword, so that he would at least have the ability to protect himself and not always be the one being protected.
What Hao Chen didn't know was that while he and Zhan Hu were plundering the treasure vault, the outside world was already in an uproar.
With Chi You's forceful intervention, the forces of Qingqiu Holy Land were naturally dissatisfied, but due to Chi You's reasoning, they had no choice but to swallow their anger.
However, according to traditional patterns, if the younger one is beaten, the older one will definitely step up.
Those outside the secret realm, realizing they couldn't defeat Chi You, secretly passed on information about Chi You to their backers.
Therefore, shortly after Hao Chen and his group entered the secret realm, teleportation arrays appeared in the void.
Celestial Venerables from various forces in the Qingqiu Sacred Land continuously descended outside the secret realm via teleportation arrays.
In a short period of time, no fewer than ten Celestial Venerables arrived.
"They've really gone all out, even bringing out their best resources."
Chi You coldly observed the arriving Celestial Venerables. Among them, three exuded an aura of decay, suggesting they were Celestial Venerables nearing the end of their lifespans.
Although the number of Celestial Venerables in this era far exceeded that of later generations, and there were also True Immortals, not everyone could become an immortal.
Celestial Venerables who have not yet attained immortality naturally cannot exist in this world forever. In such cases, many Celestial Venerables whose lifespans are insufficient will naturally choose to seal themselves away, waiting for the opportune moment to become immortal.
Within the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm, the ethereal and elusive legacy of the Demon Emperor is one of the immortal opportunities that these Celestial Venerables await.
If they hadn't known that Chi You was a living immortal, they probably would have already swarmed him and suppressed this person who coveted the secret realm.
Chi You was clearly aware of the thoughts of these celestial beings, but since he had not yet become an immortal, he was ultimately just an ant.
As a true immortal, she had no intention of personally taking action against these celestial beings who had not yet become immortals, but she also did not want to be provoked by ants.
The next moment, Chi You directly summoned the Human Emperor Banner, which floated above his head, its golden light intertwined with black energy, exuding an aura of supreme holiness and wickedness.
hiss~
Gasps of astonishment echoed from the Celestial Venerables. The opponent's true form hadn't even moved; merely unleashing a weapon was enough to exert immense pressure on them.
Suppressing his fear, Lingxu Tianzun stepped forward, clasped his hands in front of Chiyou, and said, "This junior is Lingxu from the Holy Land of Qingqiu. May I ask if you are Chiyou Zhenjun of the Jiuli Dynasty?"
"Oh, you young man do have some knowledge."
Chi You was also surprised that someone could recognize her, and thus became interested in Lingxu Tianzun.
Lingxu Tianzun's words surprised everyone present.
It's true that the forces behind them are top-tier, but even if they were all bound together, they still couldn't ignore the True Immortals.
Moreover, Chi You was not just a regular True Immortal, but a Titled True Immortal, a title he earned through sheer strength.
Moreover, Chi You was not alone; she had a powerful dynasty supporting her.
Although the ruler of the Jiuli Dynasty only possesses the cultivation of a Quasi-Celestial Venerable, who can be certain that he doesn't have the potential to become a Celestial Venerable?
Moreover, the Jiuli Dynasty was founded by a titled True Immortal, which is enough to make it one of the four great dynasties of the Origin Star, and even more so to make it a top power that dominates the universe.
Lingxu Tianzun took a deep breath to calm his inner tension and continued, "Since True Lord has already become an immortal, this secret realm is no longer of any use to you. I wonder if..."
As Lingxu spoke, he carefully observed Chi You's expression, lest he inadvertently offend a true immortal.
But before he could finish speaking, Chi You sneered and interrupted Ling Xu.
"Whether it works or not is not for you to say; I, the True Lord, will see for myself."
Before Lingxu could reply, Chiyou continued, "Moreover, even if it's useless to me, my family and business are vast, so it will still be of use to me."
"Isn't this move by the True Lord a bit too domineering?"
"What's wrong with being domineering? And what makes you think I'm easy to talk to?"
A chilling killing intent surged from Chi You and instantly descended upon the crowd.
A terrifying killing intent flashed through their minds, conjuring up an image of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
Above the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, Chi You sat quietly on a throne made of white bones, looking down at them.
"You are not wrong, but I am not wrong either. It's just that I am more powerful, so I make the rules."
The next moment, Chi You on the throne reached out a hand to grab them.
In an instant, those celestial beings seemed to see the world collapse and the sun, moon, and stars crumble, their eyes filled with uncontrollable fear.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, five imperial edicts rose into the air and slowly unfolded in the void.
As the decree was issued, it seemed as if celestial drums were resounding throughout the heavens and earth, shaking the entire ancient star of Tianhu.
Starlight surged, countless rays of light shone, and the aura of immortality swept across the sky.
The decree of the true immortal has descended.
This terrifying commotion not only affected the operation of the ancient star Tianhu, but also spread to more distant star regions.
In an instant, Chi You's killing intent was torn open by the immortal laws carried by the True Immortal's decree, and the Heavenly Venerables who were shrouded in killing intent escaped, all of them panting heavily.
"Fortunately, I brought the decree of the True Immortal with me when I came, otherwise I would probably not have escaped this calamity today." A Heavenly Venerable sighed with relief at surviving the ordeal.
Who would have thought that Chi You would attack them with murderous intent without a word?
The killing intent it emitted alone was enough to kill cultivators below the Heavenly Venerable level.
Originally, including the Celestial Venerables who arrived later, there were dozens of people present. Now, only these ten Celestial Venerables remain, and all of them have suffered considerable injuries.
As the primordial spirits flew into the Emperor's Banner above Chi You's head, Ling Xu dared not speak out in anger, and even had to flatter him with a fawning smile, saying, "Thank you for your mercy, True Lord."
Chi You ignored Ling Xu and the others, and instead looked at the five True Immortal Decrees with great interest, and then reached out to grab them.
Upon sensing Chi You's presence, the Dharma Amulet trembled violently, releasing wisps of mist imbued with divine energy in an attempt to block Chi You.
Chi You sneered and then increased his strength, instantly grabbing the five decrees in his hands.
"You mere remnant immortals, you think you can cause trouble with just five decrees? Even if your true forms came, it wouldn't take much effort to kill you."
Chi You's words reached Ling Xu's ears, instantly frightening a celestial being so much that he collapsed to the ground.
He never expected that Chi You could discern the true immortals behind them with just a single decree.
The Sacred Land of Qingqiu, the Demon Dragon Palace, the Immortal Valley, the Underworld, and the Intercepting Heaven Path are indeed backed by immortals, which allows them to dominate the Demon Emperor's Secret Realm.
However, the immortals behind them were crippled immortals; the word "crippled" alone indicated their condition.
"My Lord, have mercy!"
"We know we were wrong, and we beg Your Excellency to forgive us for our mistakes."
Not only Lingxu, but the other nine Heavenly Venerables all knelt down and begged for mercy after Chiyou issued the decree to suppress the True Immortals.
Chi You glanced at them, and just as he was about to say something, he sensed something and looked towards the exit of the secret realm.
A vortex appeared, and Hao Chen slowly walked out sitting on the back of the War Tiger, followed by Ji Wuyue, Su Li, and others.
"Wow, it's so lively here."
Hao Chen sensed it briefly and knew that a battle had taken place outside.
Judging from Chi You's appearance, it seems that the battle was suppressed as soon as it began.
"Judging from your expression, you've found something good."
"That's right, who am I? I'm the mythical beast Pixiu! I'm incredibly lucky."
Hao Chen's excitement was palpable. He had gained a great deal from this trip to the secret realm; it was a huge windfall, and he had taken off immediately.
At this moment, Hao Chen noticed Ling Xu and the other Heavenly Venerables. Just as he was about to ask them something, a somewhat unfamiliar yet familiar aura suddenly came from the cosmos.
The next moment, a golden figure appeared in front of Hao Chen and the others: "Good brother, it's been a long time. If the Venerable One hadn't mentioned you, I wouldn't have known you were here."
Looking at the Holy Ape in front of him, Hao Chen asked with some confusion, "Monkey, how did you get involved with the gods?"
"It's a long story..."
