When Dongbo Xue Ying stepped into the entrance, he could feel the space around him distorting. Following which, his vision turned dark.
"This is?" Dongbo Xue Ying was already standing in a dark and ancient hall. The hall wasn't big and was only about a hundred meters wide. The dark grey door of the hall was closed.
A faint aroma could be sensed from within the hall, permeating through every corner of the hall.
"This is the third level of the treasure cove?" Xue Ying looked at this seemingly ordinary palace hall. It was completely empty, with only a few decorations present. For instance, there were some items hanging on the walls, and there was a throne right at the front. Behind the throne, there was a huge sculpture on the wall. It was a sculpture of a huge dark cloud.
Even though the dark cloud was just a carving, it seemed to cover the entire sky. An invisible pressure enveloped the entire hall.
"Where are the treasures?"
"Where are the treasures of the third level? Since I'm able to enter, it means that the treasures of the third level haven't been completely taken away. " Dongbo Xue Ying thought to himself. He had long released his invisible ripples to scan every corner of the hall, but he didn't manage to find anything.
Dongbo Xue Ying walked forward with some doubts. His gaze first landed on the most eye-catching carving of the hall, which was right behind the throne. The 'dark cloud' carving was too eye-catching. In fact, it even gave off a strong pressure. Dongbo Xue Ying soon walked to the side of the throne. He lifted his head and looked at every part of the 'dark cloud' carving.
The lines of the carving...
"Impressive. These lines are very natural, but they have already formed an extremely mysterious array. I wasn't able to identify it at first glance." Dongbo Xue Ying observed carefully. Even though this array was powerful, he couldn't move it away. He wasn't able to learn it yet. Furthermore, this dark cloud carving array didn't seem to be used for battle.
"Found it!" Dongbo Xue Ying's eyes lit up as he looked at the edges of the carvings. There were black pearls embedded in the carvings as decorations.
There were a total of twelve black beads. They looked ordinary and seemed to be one with the sculpture. Their aura had also fused with the sculpture. Dongbo Xue Ying did not notice any problems with them even with the Plate Ripple Diagram. But when he looked at them from a close distance, he could vaguely see that there were clouds moving around the black beads. This was something that could not be seen with other methods, and could only be seen with the naked eye.
These 12 pearls were known as the Black Water Pearl. They were extremely famous treasures in the Primitive Ancient Saint World.
A single one was worth more than three thousand Origin World Stones, and it was rumored that there were even more miraculous uses when there were too many of them. Even final realm existences were collecting them.
"Twelve black water droplets are worth more than 36,000 Origin World Rocks." Dongbo Xue Ying's eyes lit up. With a single thought, "sou sou sou", a total of nine flying daggers flew out and pierced the edges of the black water droplets. However, the entire surface of the dark cloud sculpture suddenly lit up with a layer of invisible light. "Peng peng peng!!!" Instantly, all the flying daggers were knocked away.
"This dark cloud sculpture is so powerful?" Although Dongbo Xue Ying had expected this, he was still a little unwilling.
"Destroy this sculpture array. Without the protection of the entire array, the Black Water Pearl itself is just a precious treasure. It will be much easier to obtain it." With a thought from Xue Ying, "hong long long", a total of 1,200 flying daggers, each carrying a violet Termination Energy, surged out and bombarded the dark cloud sculpture with a grandiose momentum.
The invisible light on the surface of the dark cloud sculpture deflected all the incoming flying daggers.
"Go."
Dongbo Xue Ying willed.
In an instant, a total of 120 layers of Dark World descended. However, every layer of Dark World was in the shape of a hemispherical, and it enveloped one of the corners of the dark cloud sculpture. With Dongbo Xue Ying's strength, he could vaguely determine that that was one of the central points of the countless runes on the dark cloud sculpture.
"Hong ~"
The descent of the 120 layers of Dark World caused the Heaven and Earth Energy in the hall to surge violently. The final explosion caused the invisible light on the surface of the dark cloud sculpture to appear once more, and it easily blocked the attacks.
"How could this be? All of my attacks were easily blocked by it. " Dongbo Xue Ying could feel that his attacks were still far from the limit of the invisible light on the surface of the dark cloud sculpture. The invisible light blocked his attacks with ease.
"Could it be that I really can't obtain it?" Dongbo Xue Ying looked at the dark cloud sculpture in front of him, and then looked at the 12 Black Water Pearls that were used as decorations.
He could see it, but he couldn't obtain it.
"Let's search again."
Dongbo Xue Ying searched the entire hall carefully. He even tried to remove some of the decorations hanging on the walls. Unfortunately, the walls were all protected by arrays, and he couldn't remove them at all!
"Eh?" After searching for a while, Dongbo Xue Ying walked back to the side of the dark cloud sculpture. He lowered his head and looked at the throne in front of him.
This was a throne that was entirely carved out of wood.
The patterns on the wood were beautiful. If one were to carefully observe it, these patterns would faintly form many sinister faces. There was a sinister aura permeating out towards Dongbo Xue Ying.
"This is the 'Ghost Diagram Sacred Wood'?" Dongbo Xue Ying was dumbstruck. He extended his hand and gently caressed it. There was indeed an unseen array sealing the surface of this throne, "No wonder there is no aura coming from this throne that is carved out of the 'Ghost Diagram Sacred Wood'. So it is isolated by arrays. If I don't carefully observe the patterns, I wouldn't be able to recognize it. "
The Ghost Diagram Sacred Wood might seem to emit a sinister aura, but it was something powerful cultivators yearned for.
Even if one used a small amount of Ghost Diagram Sacred Wood to refine a necklace around the neck, or carve it on a storage wristband, it would be beneficial to the soul. Carving such a huge piece into a throne … was considered extravagant even to Cosmos Gods. Furthermore, after the collapse of the primitive Ancient Sacred World, the Ghost Diagram Sacred Wood could no longer be produced.
The value of this throne was even higher. It was double the price of the one in the primitive Ancient Sacred World, and should be worth 50,000 Origin World Rocks!
50,000 Origin World Rocks …
No wonder Emperor Jiuyun's treasure cove could drive Primal Chaos realm giants crazy. One had to know that most Primal Chaos realm giants could not take out 50,000 Origin World Rocks even after selling all their treasures. Even those who had gotten through the eighth level of Star Pagoda might not be able to gather so many Origin World Rocks. Only 'Primal Chaos Hall Master' and other old fellows who had reached the bottleneck could take out such treasures.
Naturally, this was under ordinary circumstances! Those like Dongbo Xue Ying who entered the treasure cove were considered special.
"I've entered. But can I leave?" Dongbo Xue Ying was not confident. Previously, he could not take down the 12 black water droplets, so how could he bring this Ghost Diagram Sacred Wood throne away?
"Rise." Dongbo Xue Ying grabbed the armrest of the throne with both hands. He exerted force, and the strength of his Voidwalker body erupted.
"Hong ~"
The throne did not move at all. It was as if it was connected to the entire palace hall.
Dongbo Xue Ying was slightly unwilling as he waved his hand, causing the 120 layers of Dark World to descend. It merely wrapped around the edges of the armrest of the throne. Even though he was not confident, he was afraid of damaging the throne. Nonetheless, reality proved that he was thinking too much! His 120 layers of Dark World could hardly be damaged even when they were gathered by the edges of the armrest of the throne.
"It's useless."
Dongbo Xue Ying lowered his head to look at the throne before looking up at the dark cloud sculpture.
One was worth more than 50,000 Origin World Rocks!
And one was worth more than 36,000 Origin World Rocks!
This was most likely the core of one of the 16 treasure coves that Emperor Jiuyun constructed. As for those at the first and second level? They were merely scraps.
"No wonder the intelligence reports stated that Primal Chaos realm giants could not bring away any treasures after entering the third level." Dongbo Xue Ying muttered inwardly, "It seems it is as I guessed. I still have to break the seal left behind by Emperor Jiuyun. If I can't break it, I can't bring it away."
