City in the Sky, in a restaurant in a remote corner.
"Everyone, did you know that the City in the Sky and the other cities in the Great Yu Empire collapsed at the same time?" a drunkard asked.
"Tch, who doesn't know?"
"No, I'm saying that there's a mastermind behind this that's disrupted the Great Yu Empire's market. Do you know who it is?" the drunkard asked.
"Mastermind? Who? "
"Who else could sweep the entire Great Yu Empire in one go? The Daluo Celestial Empire!" the drunkard laughed.
"Yes, yes!"
"But with the Viceroy here, it'll be over soon."
"That's only part of it. Do you know how many spirit stones and Sumeru Stones Daluo took from the Great Yu Empire?" the drunkard asked.
"Now, nearly thirty percent of the people in the city have left. Everyone knows that's a terrifying number."
"That's right. How much money did those masterminds take? If we catch them, we'll definitely extract their souls and grind their bones to dust!"
"Spirit stones can be taken away, but not Sumeru Stones!" the drunkard said in a daze.
"Oh?"
"What do you mean?"
"To silently take away Sumeru Stones, you'll have to make them into storage bracelets. But the price is too high. Once you make them, you'll have to repair them and sell them again, losing half of their space. Who would be willing to do that?" the drunkard shook his head.
"Then what do you mean?"
"The Sumeru Stones are still in the Great Yu Empire!" the drunkard pointed.
"What? They're still in the Great Yu Empire? "
"That's right. Rumor has it that countless Sumeru Stones are buried somewhere in the Great Yu Empire. That's an endless amount. If you get the Sumeru Stones, you won't have to worry about cultivation in the future. It won't be difficult for you to carve out a territory and establish a small empire, "the drunkard said with a yearning expression.
Everyone in the restaurant looked at each other, then shifted their gazes to the drunkard.
"Treasure? Haha, brother, you must be joking. Why would the Daluo Celestial Empire bury Sumeru Stones in the Great Yu Empire? Even if they make them into storage bracelets and take them all away, even if only half of their space is left, they wouldn't bury them in the Great Yu Empire. "
"Do you think I'm lying? Do you know how many stones there are? Not to mention the 150 cities of the Great Yu Imperial Dynasty, just the Sky City alone was the size of dozens of mountains. How many Sumeru Stones were there? The Great Overarching Celestial Empire is confident, so they buried it in a place where no one knows about it. They'll come back to retrieve it in the future, and when the time comes, they'll take it all away! "
"Haha, I don't believe you!"
"Do you know the Zhao family who owns the Stork Brothel in the city?" The drunkard panicked.
"I know. The eldest son of the Zhao family is a military officer in the south of the city."
"Haha, it's good that you know. Do you know the Zhao Clan? The Zhao family found one of the treasures. A large number of Sumeru Stones were transported back to Sky City and are now being sold outside. Go take a look and see how much the Zhao family has earned! "The drunkard laughed loudly.
Zhao Zhao Zhao Zhao Zhao......
"Do you think I'm lying to you? Go see for yourself, ask for yourself, the truth! "After saying that, the drunkard collapsed.
Everyone in the restaurant looked at each other. Then, in a short while, the restaurant that had been abnormally noisy just now was emptied.
At this moment, the drunkard 'woke up'. He looked at the slightly dazed manager and walked out.
Sky City was in an uproar.
The Zhao Family of the Stork Brothel had found a treasure trove. It was the Sumeru Stone that the Great Yu Empire had cheated out of. He found it in the 'Great Ink Canyon', three million kilometers outside of Sky City.
Logically speaking, this treasure trove should belong to the Zhao Family.
After the Zhao Clan took it back, they sold it at the market price, and it was sold out in an instant.
Twenty million! Twenty million high-grade spirit stones!
It was a terrifying amount. Even if the Zhao family continued to squander for a thousand years, they would not be able to squander it all.
Although the number of Sumeru Stones was only one-eighth of what Sky City had in the past, it was still a terrifying number.
Twenty million Spirit Stones!
Everyone who heard this news swallowed their saliva.
This was only one-eighth of Sky City. What about the other seven-eighths? No, not just Sky City, but other cities as well. A hundred and fifty cities, how many would that be?
Many people's eyes turned red. The news instantly spread throughout the city. Almost everyone was asking how they had found it. Were there any more treasures?
At the same time, the Zhao Family's Patriarch was summoned by the Governor.
Yi Yan waited anxiously in the main hall of the imperial palace. The courtiers were also waiting anxiously. Nalan Piaoxue waited with a frown.
In the end, the bad news that Yi Yan had been waiting for arrived. It was here! It was finally here!
The Zhao Family's discovery of the treasure trove was understandable. All the courtiers in the main hall thought it was reasonable.
"Patriarch Zhao, how did you discover this treasure trove?" Yi Yan looked seriously at the middle-aged Patriarch Zhao.
"That day, I was walking in the mountains and saw two corpses in a valley. I was puzzled, so I went to investigate. I just happened to see one of the corpses holding a sheepskin map, so I took it to take a look. There was a red dot on it, and I just happened to recognize that place. Later, I led people to investigate and found these Sumeru Stones at the bottom of the sea!"
"Treasure map?" The courtiers looked at each other. Wasn't the Zhao Family's Patriarch too lucky?
Only Yi Yan suddenly raised his head, looking depressed and helpless. Oh no! Oh no!
"Yi Yan, what happened?" Nalan Piaoxue asked in a deep voice.
"The sky collapsed!" Yi Yan said with a bitter smile.
"Treasure map?"
Everyone in the city suddenly heard this strange news from the Zhao Family's servants. The Zhao Family's Patriarch was too lucky!
Two thousand high-grade spirit stones, just walk in the mountains and you'll know?
While the entire city was still in shock, all of a sudden, the Zhou family of Tongren Restaurant was wiped out. While the citizens were paying attention, a servant walked out timidly. The only remaining servant of the Zhou Family.
This servant revealed an explosive piece of news to Sky City.
The Zhou Family's Patriarch had accidentally obtained a sheepskin treasure map, but the news was leaked and he was killed to silence the witness. The map was snatched away.
Treasure trove?
Everyone was startled.
However, before they could think of any strategy, the robbers who slaughtered the Zhou Family were caught, but the treasure map was snatched away.
In whose hands?
Outside Sky City, a team of twenty people was flying quickly toward the west.
"Big Brother, is this the treasure map? Twenty million high-grade spirit stones, we'll be rich if we get it, and we can completely cultivate in peace in the future. "
"Twenty million? Who knows how much is in this treasure map, maybe it's worth forty million, hahaha! "
"Hahahaha!"
A group of excited people took the map that they had snatched and ran at high speed.
The Zhou Family's treasure map was snatched by them, but there was still the Zhou Family's treasure map in Sky City.
No, in Sky City, there were suddenly countless copies of the Zhou Family's treasure map.
It was exactly the same!
The same style, the same map.
The map that they had been crazy about before, now people were stupefied, not knowing whether it was real or fake.
In addition to this set of maps, there were hundreds of different versions of the treasure map. Hundreds of treasure maps gushed out like bamboo shoots after the rain. Hundreds of treasure maps?
Treasure maps were flooding, but people were becoming more and more skeptical.
The range of the treasure map was very small, which meant that it was very hidden. Even if you had a treasure map, you would only know one or two places.
Not long after, the treasure map became a joke!
However, ten days later, when the twenty people from before returned with a few mountain-like Sumeru Stones, everyone was dumbfounded again.
Treasure? Where did this treasure come from?
Although the Sumeru Stones of a few mountains were only exchanged for ten million high-grade spirit stones.
That was enough, ten million stones was really enough.
When everyone found out the location of the treasure and compared it with the map they had obtained in the past, it was on the map.
Crazy! Everyone in the city went crazy.
Why was I so stupid? There was a treasure and I didn't take it? Let someone else take it? Ten million Spirit Stones.
This was a real treasure. Many people slapped themselves fiercely!
What about the other maps?
Regardless of whether they had the strength or not, they all went out, out of the city! They swarmed out of the city.
Little did they know that ten days ago, Yi Yan had sent a large number of reliable troops to the places indicated on the map.
Not every map was real, but at least one-third of it was real. That was enough, one-third was enough for countless people to go crazy.
Sky City was like this, and so were the other cities of the Great Yu Empire.
Yi Yan sat in his residence somewhat dejectedly. He could suppress Sky City in time, but what about the one hundred and fifty cities of the Great Yu Empire?
Crazy, all the cities of the Great Yu Empire went crazy.
The people left the city one after another. Treasure, treasure, treasure everywhere, everyone had hundreds of different treasure maps in their hands. There had to be some real ones. Because every once in a while, someone would come back with the treasure! This wasn't a lie. The treasure brought back was real.
The people were causing chaos in the city. Leave the city, we have to leave the city!
Similarly, if the people were people, then the army was also people. In each city, the captains watched as a mountain of Sumeru Stones was brought back and looked at the treasure map in their hands.
"Damn it, brothers, follow me. I know this place. Take it back, and we'll be rich!" a general said.
"General, the Viceroy has given strict orders. We're not allowed to … "a deputy general said.
"Kid, did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? Twenty million spirit stones! With twenty million spirit stones, what can't you do? If you're not going, then we'll go! "the general cursed.
"General, I didn't say I wasn't going!" the deputy general immediately cried out.
This was just the scene of one city. The Great Yu Empire had so many cities, and greed was everywhere.
There were many treasures, and everyone had hundreds of them. A third of them were real, and that was enough. As long as they could find one real one, it would be enough.
The Great Yu Empire had gone crazy! The people's hearts were in chaos!
Once the people's hearts were in chaos, it would be difficult to recover.
After half a year of catalyzing, the Great Yu Empire's desire for Sumeru Stones and spirit stones had reached an extremely high level, from the city lords to the common people!
When the desire reached its peak, a sharp knife suddenly cut a hole in the 'treasure'. The hearts of countless people were lost. The hearts of a single generation were lost.
What was even more brilliant was that Sumeru Stones and spirit stones, two things that were urgently needed, happened to be in the form of Sumeru Stones. It was a sign of sudden wealth. Zhong Shan did not share it equally with everyone, and instead used the situation of the treasure to influence everyone.
This was the second heaven of the Fall of the Heavens. The people's hearts were in chaos, and the strong city was in chaos.
