The room was very big. Xiao Chen looked around and found three wooden chests. The wooden chests were covered in dust.
Xiao Chen moved back ten meters and casually sent out a palm wind, shattering the lid of the box in the middle into dust.
A gentle light came from the box. There were more than five thousand Inferior Grade Spirit Stones lying quietly in the wooden box.
Xiao Chen used the same method to open the other two boxes. However, the result disappointed Xiao Chen; it was still a pile of Inferior Grade Spirit Stones.
Xiao Chen swept all the Inferior Grade Spirit Stones into his Universe Ring. Then, he continued to wander around the fifth floor. Along the way, he ran into several Martial Kings who were blind.
When these Martial Kings saw that Xiao Chen was alone and was only a Superior Grade Martial Saint, they wanted to kill him and snatch his treasures.
Without hesitation, Xiao Chen decisively made a counterattack. Cultivators who wandered around the fifth floor would naturally not be very strong.
They would only be able to increase Xiao Chen's blood pool in the scarlet throne and lose their own treasures.
"Bang!"
Xiao Chen dealt with another combat puppet and opened the wooden box. However, he only obtained three more boxes of Inferior Grade Spirit Stones, much to his disappointment.
Along the way, Xiao Chen had already broken into at least ten rooms. In the end, he only obtained Inferior Grade Spirit Stones and some trashy Martial Techniques. To him, they were not of much use.
"No, I can't continue to be so cautious. The rewards are usually proportional to the danger. I have to go a few more floors in."
Xiao Chen put away the Spirit Stones and thought to himself.
After making up his mind, Xiao Chen no longer hesitated. He prepared to head for the sixth floor.
The deeper he went, the fewer rooms there would be. The danger would also be higher, but naturally, the rewards would be higher as well.
After taking a quick glance at the crowd on the sixth floor, Xiao Chen did not stop. He discovered that there were no experts. Xiao Chen continued forward without stopping.
If experts were not worth staying in, it meant that they were not worth much. In that case, there was no need for Xiao Chen to stay for long.
Along the way, Xiao Chen did not stop moving. If there were any Martial Kings blocking his way, he would quickly deal with them. Only when he reached the tenth floor did Xiao Chen stop.
There were less than a hundred rooms left on both sides of the circular passageway on the tenth floor, but none of the sealed rooms were left.
The ground was strewn with the corpses of cultivators. The blood had yet to coagulate. Some of the cultivators who were not completely dead were still groaning in pain.
Xiao Chen looked at the corpses on the ground and frowned slightly. Many of these people were almost as strong as him.
In other words, if he continued forward, he might encounter someone who could threaten his life. Perhaps he would be like the person lying on the ground, completely unable to stand up.
Go, keep going!
Xiao Chen made up his mind. His right hand remained on the saber hilt as he walked forward quickly.
On the eleventh floor, there were still no sealed treasure rooms. There were even more corpses on the ground. Xiao Chen did not even bother to look at them as he continued forward.
The twelfth, thirteenth, fourteenth — the treasure rooms in the core regions had all been opened. The treasures inside had all been taken away; there was nothing left.
I can only go to the fifteenth floor, Xiao Chen thought to himself. I have already reached this point; there is no turning back.
Xiao Chen focused his mind and headed for the passage to the fifteenth floor. There were many corpses lying at the entrance.
The corpses had all been killed in one strike. Their spatial rings had also been taken away. Clearly, someone was waiting here.
Xiao Chen scanned with his Spiritual Sense and immediately saw a mysterious old man hidden in the shadows behind the door.
Xiao Chen smiled coldly to himself. He sent out a strand of purple saber Qi. With a 'sou' sound, it pierced through the door and headed for the mysterious old man.
A dagger appeared in the mysterious old man's hand. With a gentle slash, the purple saber Qi was easily sliced in half like a piece of cloth.
"Bang!"
The mysterious old man's figure flashed, and the wooden door immediately shattered. His appearance appeared before Xiao Chen's eyes.
"Wu Shangxuan!"
Wu Shangxuan looked at Xiao Chen and smiled sinisterly, "Little Brother, I did not expect to meet you again. How about it? Can you reconsider my request from back then?"
Xiao Chen sheathed his saber and smiled faintly, "So, Old Wu is here. I have offended you earlier."
When Wu Shangxuan saw Xiao Chen sheathe his saber, he lowered his guard. He thought to himself, In the end, this is just a newbie. I can make use of him.
Thinking of this, Wu Shangxuan laughed loudly, "It is just a small matter. This treasure hunt far surpassed this old man's expectations. Young Hero should have seen the miserable situation in the first few floors.
"It looks like there is a chance to open the doors of the main palace and enter the main hall. How about it? Can you reconsider my previous request?"
Xiao Chen slowly approached Wu Shangxuan. He discovered that when Wu Shangxuan spoke, he was still in a state of alert. Furthermore, there were no openings in his stance.
No matter where Xiao Chen attacked, Wu Shangxuan was able to dodge immediately. He was very cautious.
Xiao Chen maintained a distance of five meters from Wu Shangxuan. He said indifferently, "Since we met, let's go and take a look together. Senior, please tell me about the situation ahead."
Wu Shangxuan nodded and smiled, "There are a total of seventy treasure rooms on the fifteenth floor. Because there were not many people in the past, no one managed to break through the mechanical beasts guarding the fifteenth floor."
Xiao Chen looked at the entrance to the fifteenth floor. Indeed, he could see the remains of the mechanical beasts among the corpses. He thought about the remains of the mechanical beasts that he had seen at the entrances to the previous floors.
The entrances to every floor should have guardian beasts of varying strength. However, Xiao Chen had arrived rather late, and the gates had already been opened. That was why he was able to enter unobstructed.
"Let's go. Right now, there are at least four or five people in every treasure room. With you working with this old man, there is no need to pick up scraps," Wu Shangxuan said casually.
There were at least fifteen corpses on the ground. Based on Wu Shangxuan's words, they should have been killed by him. This person was extraordinarily vicious.
Wu Shangxuan led Xiao Chen through the passageway. When they arrived before the treasure room, a sinister look flashed in his eyes.
The sound of fighting came from inside. Clearly, a group of cultivators had already entered.
"Bang!"
Wu Shangxuan kicked the door open and entered first. Four Superior Grade Martial Kings were fighting a ferocious Rank 7 Demonic Beast in the spacious room.
Three golden wooden boxes lay quietly in the corner; they looked incredibly heavy.
When they saw Wu Shangxuan suddenly appear, they were startled. The leader of the group knocked back the Demonic Beast with a palm strike.
The leader leaped out of the battle and arrived before Wu Shangxuan. He looked at Xiao Chen behind him and said, "Wu Shangxuan, what are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to scram?"
Wu Shangxuan smiled faintly and said, "Yang Wen, this old man was the first to arrive at this treasure room. What am I doing here? Naturally, it is to chase you all away."
Yang Wen glanced at Xiao Chen and smiled with some disdain. He said, "With just him? You are too naive!
"Make a move first and help me delay this person. I will deal with the other three. When we return, we will split the treasures in this room. Otherwise, with your strength, you will not be able to gain any advantage in the fifteenth floor."
As Wu Shangxuan spoke, he projected his voice into Xiao Chen's ears.
Xiao Chen thought very quickly. After a while, as the two spoke, he made a decision. He drew his saber.
Xiao Chen drew his saber and sent out a purple saber light at Yang Wen. The saber light was incredibly dense. Yang Wen smiled faintly and sent out a few palm winds.
As the palm winds howled, cyclones appeared in the air. Unexpectedly, the might of these casual palm winds was extraordinary. "Chi! Chi!
Chi! "
However, Xiao Chen's saber light was even denser. The intense state of thunder easily broke the palm winds. Xiao Chen took advantage of this opportunity to get close to Yang Wen.
Wu Shangxuan chuckled and quickly headed for the other three. "Yang Wen, take your time playing. I'll go and deal with your brother."
Damn it! Unexpectedly, he comprehended the state of thunder. Clearly, I will not be able to take him down in two or three moves.
Yang Wen's expression changed drastically. He wanted to stop Wu Shangxuan. However, a saber light blocked him.
After dodging a few times, the saber light followed him like a shadow. Yang Wen could not get away. He could only focus all his attention on Xiao Chen.
"You spoiled my plans. I will kill you today!" Yang Wen roared ferociously and sent a palm strike at Xiao Chen.
A few strands of cold Qi spread out from the palm wind. They moved around like needles and thread. Unexpectedly, this Yang Wen comprehended the state of ice.
Xiao Chen was a Superior Grade Martial King with the state of ice. This person would not be easy to deal with. There is still Wu Shangxuan here. Neither of them are easy to deal with. I'll deal with him first.
After making up his mind, Xiao Chen circulated the Blue Dragon Cloud Soaring Art. He did not clash head-on with Yang Wen's strong attacks. Instead, he moved around like a slippery eel.
Whenever Yang Wen tried to pull away, the saber light would strike like a venomous snake. Even with Yang Wen's abilities, he could only struggle to deal with it.
There were several times when Yang Wen tried to pull away and catch Xiao Chen to fight him head-on. However, his tricks were too weak. Xiao Chen saw through them with one glance, so they were useless.
There were even a few times when Xiao Chen beat him at his own game, catching him off guard.
"Ah!"
A miserable cry rang out. On the other side, Wu Shangxuan finally succeeded. He managed to sneak attack and kill one of the three Martial Kings fighting the Demonic Beast.
Yang Wen felt very anxious. However, Xiao Chen continued to stick to him without changing his expression, preventing Yang Wen from helping him.
The four Martial Kings had surrounded the Rank 7 Demonic Beast for a long time. Originally, victory was in their grasp. They would be able to kill the Demonic Beast soon.
However, now that they were down one person, they could not kill the Demonic Beast. They could only barely block it. Wu Shangxuan's sneak attack was within their expectations.
With one less person, the remaining two were no match for the Demonic Beast. The Demonic Beast chased them too closely; they did not even have the chance to pull away.
"Hu chi!"
Another scarlet light flew out. The dagger in Wu Shangxuan's hand took another life. Then, he disappeared, hiding in the shadows of the room.
Wu Shangxuan's aura was completely gone. He did not attract the attention of the Demonic Beast at all, catching them off guard.
"We are still missing one more person. After we deal with Yang Wen, that brat will no longer have any value. At that time, the entrance to the main hall should be open. We can go there to try our luck. Profound Pills, miraculous medicines, and natural treasures can only be found there. "
Wu Shangxuan, who was hidden in the shadows, smiled faintly. Everything was within his control.
