"The three of you have done your part too. You'll be rewarded later!"
The leader girl looked at Shennong's Three Punches and chuckled.
She raised her hand and waved, and four Starry Sky Secret Treasures appeared, twinkling with divine light. They were all top-grade secret treasures, including gloves, armors, swords, and sabers.
Clearly, they had been prepared in advance and had specially chosen the items for Su Ping and the others.
The treasures flew to them one by one. The leader girl gave Su Ping a saber and said, "It's not as good as your secret treasure, but it's still a high-quality Star State treasure. If you think it's useless, you can trade it for money, astral crystals or secret techniques."
Those treasures were expensive, but they weren't coveted by Star Lords, so she generously gave them to him.
"Thank you."
Su Ping nodded and accepted them.
The saber wasn't necessarily useless. He could give the bone saber to the Little Skeleton and use the battle saber himself. He wouldn't merge with the Little Skeleton and fight with the bone saber unless absolutely necessary.
"Thank you, leader!"
The other three expressed their gratitude and then looked at Su Ping. They immediately cupped their hands and thanked Su Ping with admiration.
If Su Ping hadn't won, they wouldn't have been able to get the Fruit of Laws.
On the other side —
The purple-robed young man returned to a battle alliance. His amazing performance had attracted a lot of attention. Everybody became solemn when they saw the alliance he had returned to.
Seeing the gloomy purple-robed young man, a Star Lord comforted him, "Mr. Xing, it's just a small competition. You don't have to worry about it."
Another Star Lord nodded and said, "Yes, in my opinion, Mr. Xing, you might be able to get the Tree of Laws if you use your real trump cards and don't hesitate to pay the price. Besides, your opponent is one level higher than you after all. The gap between the Fate State and the Star State is unfair!"
The purple-robed young man was gloomy, but he didn't say anything.
The gap between levels?
Of course he knew that!
However, he had always liked to challenge people above his level since he was a kid!
He had been challenging them all the way here, and he had won every single battle!
But today, he failed!
Although he could barely comfort himself with the difference in cultivation base, he was still unwilling to give up. If he was a little stronger, perhaps he could even suppress such a Starry Sky monster!
"Not enough, I'm not strong enough …"
The purple-robed young man stared coldly at the figure in the distance.
…
"The restriction seems to be loosening!"
Exactly at this moment, a Star Lord suddenly spoke in a low voice.
The other Star Lords sensed it too. They raised their heads and looked at the depths of the garden. Immediately, some Star Lords took the members of their alliances into their small worlds and hurried to the depths of the garden.
"Come on, let's go too!"
She waved her hand, and Su Ping and Father Time immediately flew into the small world. Then, she took a step forward and covered three thousand meters in the blink of an eye as if the ground had shrunk.
The other Star Lords also took action and flew out.
Passing through the path beside the Dao Garden and following the flower path, a wavering barrier appeared at the end of the path.
Two Star Lords were cracking the array there. Dazzling astral runes appeared around them as they cracked the patterns on the array.
"How is it? How much longer?"
Someone immediately asked.
One of the Star Lords who was cracking the barrier opened his eyes and said, "Half an hour at most. This is a barrier from the Deity's Epoch. It's only recorded in ancient books. Thankfully, we're knowledgeable enough to crack it together."
"Thank you for your hard work."
The leader of the Ouhuang Alliance said courteously.
The other people also expressed their gratitude courteously.
The Star Lord, however, said indifferently, "You don't have to thank us. We're not doing this for free, and we don't want anything else. You can go in if you give us two Star Lord treasures each. That will be our reward!"
"…"
All the Star Lords changed their expressions. Someone immediately lost his temper. He had thanked them with a smile a second ago, but he was now infuriated. "Aren't you two too greedy? How precious are Star Lord treasures? Even we don't have many of them. Besides, how many treasures do you have if you give them to each of us? That's too much for you! "
"Exactly!"
"You're too greedy. If we give you two treasures each, you'll have to take at least ten treasures. Those are Star Lord treasures, not Star State treasures!"
"I thought you two were righteous men. I didn't expect you to be so filthy!"
"You're blackmailing us by cracking the barrier. Isn't that too despicable? You've offended all of us … "
All the Star Lords were dissatisfied.
"Cut the crap!" The Star Lord who was cracking the barrier looked awful. He said solemnly, "You have to give us the treasures if you want to go in, or we'll give up. We can just waste our time here. You were fighting for the Tree of Laws earlier, while we were cracking the barrier. You're just being petty now that we're asking you to pay the entrance fee!"
"We can afford it, or you'll have to crack the barrier yourselves!"
"We can only wait until the divine residence is closed and the Ascendant State departs. We'll have to return empty-handed then!"
"So be it!"
Said a Star Lord angrily.
"At worst, we won't have anything!" Someone chimed in with a resolute and decisive tone.
The leader of the Ouhuang Alliance said casually, "I can afford it too. After all, even if you don't get anything in the end, I'll definitely get an opportunity thanks to the Goddess of Luck. This trip won't be in vain!"
"…"
The leader of the Thousand Feathers Alliance looked at him as if he were an idiot, then turned around and snorted.
The leader girl remained casual and didn't say anything. After all, she had already profited from the Tree of Laws; it was other people who should be anxious.
Everybody in the small worlds of the Star Lords looked at each other in bewilderment. They didn't expect that the two Star Lords who had cracked the barrier would threaten them. Would their trip to the divine residence end at the gate?
That would be hilarious!
However, nobody dared to say anything. Star State experts had no say in the Star Lords' affairs.
Behind them, many rogue cultivators were digging in the garden.
The soil that the Star Lords despised was also a treasure for the rogue cultivators.
It was rare to see a rare earth that could give birth to a Tree of Laws. Although 90% of the energy in the soil had been absorbed by the Tree of Laws, the remaining soil was still valuable enough to pay for the trip!
As time went by, more and more barriers were cracked. Twenty minutes later, the two Star Lords stopped and looked at the other Star Lords casually.
Their intention was obvious.
They had to agree if they wanted to go in, or they would be stuck there forever.
They would never do such a good deed if they were asked to help for free.
That was how the world worked. If you did a good deed, other people might thank you on the surface, but they would call you stupid and ridiculous in their hearts!
"Do you really want to do this?"
"We're all respectable people. Why do you have to do this? Just for a treasure …"
"Damn you. If it's just a treasure, why don't you just give it to us?"
"…"
The atmosphere was awkward.
Half an hour later, a deafening noise came from the depths of the divine residence!
This rumbling sound was like thunder from beyond the nine heavens. It seemed to be the roar of some ancient beast, but it also seemed like the lightning triggered by the birth of a supreme treasure!
The noise spread out far and wide. Everybody outside the barrier heard it. All the Star Lords changed their expressions and looked at the magnificent divine residence.
However, there seemed to be billions of miles between them; they couldn't see anything.
"Damn it!"
"Fine. We'll give you the treasure, but only one. You can split it among yourselves!"
"That's right. Only one treasure. That's our bottom line. Otherwise, we'll kill you together!"
"Attack if you don't agree. What a bunch of dogs. I'm so pissed!"
All the Star Lords were infuriated; it was quite uncomfortable to be grabbed by the neck.
The two Star Lords looked at each other and didn't insist. They accepted the offer.
They had previously proposed two secret treasures in order to leave room for bargaining. Coupled with the strange sounds coming from the depths of the immortal mansion, their hearts were pounding with eagerness.
They had mastered secret techniques. They would have to take action if there were other barriers deep inside the divine residence.
They could even obtain secret treasures that other people couldn't with their arrays!
It wasn't a good deal for them to waste time with those guys!
Very soon, all the Star Lords handed over their worst treasures. Some of them had extra treasures and didn't hesitate to hand them over.
Inside the small world — Su Ping watched the two Star Lords collect their treasures and crack the barrier.
His eyes flashed; he was familiar with the barrier, but he wouldn't say it out loud.
Previously, he had learned about formations from Joanna. The knowledge she had imparted to him was all from the Shen Clan. Some of them were improved, while some were ancient.
The mechanism was quite similar to the barrier in front of him. He felt that he could crack it if he took action. However, he didn't want to show off.
In this Immortal Mansion, if one could break the formation, they would definitely be able to obtain more secret treasures. This was something that everyone knew in their hearts. Therefore, more people would pay attention to it.
"Huh?"
Su Ping suddenly sensed that someone was looking at him.
He turned around, only to find that it was that guy.
The purple-robed young man who had competed with Su Ping earlier was standing in the middle of a Star Lord's small world. He was surrounded by a bunch of Star State experts, but he stood out from the crowd and looked at Su Ping coldly.
Su Ping raised his eyebrows and curled his finger.
Come here.
Seeing Su Ping's move, the purple-robed young man's eyes twitched in fury. He snorted and withdrew his gaze.
"Brother Heaven Destroyer, you must be careful. That guy is so strong that he must have a powerful background, even one that's beyond the Star Lord State!"
Father Time said telepathically.
A few advanced Star State experts of the Alliance of Stars were standing next to Su Ping; they seemed to be led by Su Ping.
O 'Neil had been pushed aside; he could only watch everything happen with a bitter smile. It was true that gold would shine wherever it fell. Even the advanced Star State experts were polite to Su Ping and willing to make friends with him. It would be even more difficult for O' Neil to please Su Ping.
What he felt most fortunate about at the moment was that he had made the right decision not to go against Su Ping.
Otherwise, his grandson would have been enough to destroy the Ryan family!
For a clan that had ruled over a planet for thousands of years, how many branches and leaves would there be? How many people would there be in the clan? If it were to be destroyed by a single person, that person would definitely be condemned by the entire family!
O 'Neil thought and couldn't help but sigh. He only asked Garland to stay behind so that the others could inform him. Maybe he didn't care at all, and just didn't want me to bother him …
That was the world of the bigshots.
They didn't care about other people's revenge at all. Everybody was as insignificant as ants; they could have easily slapped him to death if he were to seek revenge.
He had only given a warning because he was too lazy to slap him.
"Who cares? Even if his father is in the Ascendant State, it has nothing to do with me," Su Ping said to Father Time.
Su Ping had already considered that possibility when the man swept across the Star State in the small world. He also considered that even if the man had an Ascendant State bigshot behind him, he wouldn't be one of the three Ascendants in the depths of the divine residence.
It meant that the Ascendant State expert behind the guy wasn't there at all.
Otherwise, the Ascendant State expert could have easily plucked the Tree of Laws, and wouldn't have needed his juniors to compete for it.
Was he trying to show off? Who was he trying to show off to?
If he wanted to show off, he should wait until the Universe Geniuses' Contest.
With that in mind, Su Ping wasn't scared to piss off the guy. After all, not even the Ascendant State expert behind him could do anything to him once he returned to his shop.
Besides, Su Ping didn't think that an Ascendant State expert would compete for such a trivial thing.
That would be too embarrassing!
Father Time was shocked to hear Su Ping's telepathic message. He narrowed his eyes.
Judging by his tone, does Su Ping have an Ascendant State expert behind him too?
That's right!
How could a Star State genius like Su Ping not have an Ascendant State organization behind him?
Even if he was from one of the five best academies, a genius like Su Ping would still be protected by his school even after he graduated. Other Ascendant State experts would have to ask the Ascendant State expert behind him if they wanted to deal with him!
"You're right. Ascendant State experts are just like that. A real man should be able to see through everything. I admire your courage!" A bold and clear voice echoed right next to their ears at this moment. It was none other than the leader girl.
Su Ping was stunned. "You can hear us?"
"Of course. You can't hide anything from me in my small world!" said the leader girl with a casual smile.
Su Ping: "…"
So to speak, you even know what I'm wearing?
How shameless!
Su Ping turned around and looked at everybody, only to feel that his blood was freezing.
He had a weird feeling when he thought that so many of them were naked in front of the leader girl's eyes.
How horrifying!
"Huh?"
The leader girl suddenly frowned, feeling that Su Ping's eyes were weird, but she couldn't tell why.
At that moment, ripples appeared in front of them, and the barrier collapsed like a vortex.
"It's broken!"
Said the Star Lord who had broken the barrier in relief.
Then, he looked at everybody warily. Now that the barrier had been broken, they could only hide if they wanted to get the treasures back!
Although they were outnumbered, they were all in the same level. It would be hard for them to be killed if they were determined to run. That was also why they were fearless enough to rob them.
"What's that?"
The Star Lords were obviously aware of that. None of them thought of asking for the treasures back. Also, the view inside the barrier attracted everybody's attention after it was broken.
