On the beach, everyone's eyes brightened. But very quickly, most people's eyes dimmed.
The rewards will only be given out to the top 100. It has nothing to do with most people.
Therefore, only the top 100 were excited and full of anticipation.
Ling Xian was no exception.
The Divine Sacred Island was famous for being filthy rich. The top one hundred people would all be rewarded handsomely. Especially the first place, the rewards were even more generous. Even the seventh leveled cultivators were jealous.
"Alright, those whose names I call, please step forward." The young island leader spoke softly and began to give out the rewards from the top 100.
Just like that, time passed by.
Everyone whose name was called received a great reward. The further the reward was, the better it was. When it came to the seventh beast and the other top 10, the rewards were even more generous. Everyone's breathing hastened.
Even the seventh leveled cultivators were looking at them with passion.
It was far too generous. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as priceless.
"The Holy Island is far too wealthy. In terms of wealth, they are the most wealthy in the entire Xuan Wu continent."
"It's hard not to be wealthy when you're guarding such a treasured place."
"They sure are rich. Other than the Holy Island, which other force can give out so many treasures?"
Everyone exclaimed over the wealth of the Holy Island. At the same time, they had high expectations.
Though it had nothing to do with them, they really wanted to see what kind of reward Ling Xian, the first place winner, would receive.
"Now, the first place winner, please step forward."
The young island leader shifted his gaze towards Ling Xian and immediately frowned. He felt strangely familiar.
Ling Xian frowned as well, worried that the young island leader would recognize him. However, he appeared to be extremely calm as he walked up to the person.
"You are the monster who passed the tenth area after all. Though you are weak, your demeanor is still stunning."
The young island leader said politely and took out 10 jade boxes. All of them were emitting heavenly light that shone like stars.
This brightened Ling Xian's eyes and he grinned, "These are my rewards?"
"That's right. Throughout the years, the first place winner's reward has always been the best." The young island leader spoke softly. Flapping around his sleeve, the 10 jade boxes opened.
Immediately, heavenly light shot through the cloud and engulfed the entire place.
Everyone's eyes were heated as they stared at the 10 treasures. Their saliva was about to drip out.
Even Ling Xian's heart palpitated.
Out of the ten jade boxes, nine contained godly medicines, all of them priceless and extraordinary. The last one was a Divine Talisman that flowed with the aura of the Dao and dazzling with divine light.
Putting aside the Godly Talisman whose abilities were unknown, just the nine Godly medicines alone were already precious treasures. Even a major power would not be able to find these nine Godly medicines.
Therefore, Ling Xian's eyes were heated. He didn't think the Holy Island would be this generous.
"I won't repeat the names and abilities of the nine Godly Medicines one by one."
"Let's talk about this Godly Talisman. It's called the Zone Breaking Talisman. It has the same function as the Space-Breaking Talisman, which is teleportation."
"However, it's much more powerful than the Space-Breaking Talisman. If the Space-Breaking Talisman can only move one thousand miles in an instant, then the Realm-Breaking Talisman can move ten thousand miles, or even a hundred thousand miles! "
The Young Island Master's lips curled into a smile, revealing a hint of arrogance.
He indeed had the right to be arrogant. The Domain Breaking Talisman was a rare treasure. There were very few people who possessed it, and those who were willing to give it away were even fewer.
It was no exaggeration to say that apart from the wealthy Sacred Island, there was no one else.
"It's the Domain Breaking Talisman. That is a life-saving treasure!"
"Though I can only use it once, it can teleport me thousands of miles away. Even those at the peak of the seventh level cannot stop me."
"The Holy Island is far too generous. They are giving out such a treasure. Xian Ling sure is lucky."
Everyone exclaimed in awe and jealousy filled their eyes.
Even the Seventh Immortal Beast and the other candidates for the throne had the urge to steal it.
What could they do? The Domain Breaking Talisman was a life-saving treasure. Acquiring it was the same as acquiring a death-exemption card!
Therefore, other than admiration, everyone was looking at Ling Xian with jealousy.
"He truly is lucky. This trip was not a waste."
Looking at the mysterious talisman, Ling Xian smiled. He smiled in joy.
He had gained much from this trip. Now that he had acquired a life-saving treasure, why wouldn't he be happy?
Therefore, he put away the Talisman and the spiritual medicine into his pouch and smiled, "Thank you, Young Island Master."
"You are welcome. You deserve this."
The Young Island Master brandished his hand and erased his smile. His expression turned serious.
Instantly, the atmosphere became heavy. Everyone furrowed their brows, feeling a little suspicious.
"A year ago, right after you all arrived, two thieves broke into the Holy Temple and stole our treasures."
"The two of them are partners. One of them is the Saint of Thieves, Thief Wang Gu."
"Because of my carelessness, Thief Wang Gu escaped. But I am certain that he and the other person are among you."
The Young Island Master gave a simple explanation of the whole story, causing everyone to be stunned. Then, there was an uproar.
The Holy Island was a giant that even the top forces had to respect. Yet their treasure was stolen. Even if the thief was the Saint of Thieves, it was still unbelievable!
"Everyone, please be quiet."
The Young Island Master glanced around. After everyone calmed down, he said in a low voice, "I plan on searching and finding the two thieves. I hope everyone will cooperate."
Hearing this, Ling Xian squinted his eyes, thinking that it was just as he predicted.
However, he wasn't too worried. He believed that with his grandmaster level of arrays, he could hide from everyone.
"Dare I ask, Young Island Master, how do you plan on searching?" Someone asked the question everyone wanted to ask.
"You all know about the Saint of Thieves. He is an expert in disguise. It is unrealistic to search based on looks alone."
The Young Island Master's expression was serious as he said in a low voice, "Therefore, I plan on searching everyone's storage pouch. If I can find the Holy Island's lost treasure, then I will have found the two thieves."
At those words, the entire place exploded. Everyone shook their heads, expressing their unwillingness.
What a joke!
Storage pouches were one of the most important things to a cultivator. Who would want to show others?
"I know this request is asking a lot. But I promise you, the Holy Island will not steal your treasures."
The Young Island Master glanced around, "Everyone, please allow me to check your storage pouches because of the rewards."
Hearing this, everyone silenced.
As the saying goes, one's mouth is short of a treat, and one's hand is short of a treat. Now that they had received the reward, they owed a favor. No matter how unwilling they were, they couldn't say no.
"Please cooperate. The lost treasure is far too important to the Holy Island. If you are unwilling, then I will have to use force."
The Young Island Master's expression turned cold and his tone turned harsh.
This made everyone's expression change. There was anger and helplessness.
This person's intention was very clear. Even if they don't agree, they cannot escape the fate of having their storage pouches searched. Instead of shedding all pretense of cordiality and being searched, they might as well agree.
Therefore, everyone suppressed the anger in their hearts and agreed.
This made Ling Xian softly sigh, exclaiming that the Young Island Master made a good move.
Hiding among the crowd, Robber Wangu felt the same.
