The Yao-Sealing Pagoda
Ye Zichen had been eyeing the divine artifact in the armory for a long time now. Even though he'd only been in the God Realm for a short time, he didn't really understand the rankings or special effects.
But there was one thing he was clear about: it was worth a lot of money!
It didn't matter how much others coveted it, or how powerful its effects were. So long as it was valuable, that was enough.
Especially in an unfamiliar environment like the God Realm, he couldn't afford to go without a treasure.
Ye Zichen looked expectantly at the ghost on the wall. In response to his question, the ghost gently swayed a few times.
"Of course."
Almost as soon as the ghost spoke, Ye Zichen dashed into the secret room.
Immortal artifacts? Substandard divine artifacts? Only an idiot would try to take them.
"Are you sure you want to take the treasures in this room?" When Ye Zichen appeared in the secret room of the ten supreme treasures, Gui Ying followed him. His tone was flat.
"What, can't I?" Ye Zichen arched his brows.
"Of course not. I said I could let you take one, so that includes everything here, including the ten supreme treasures."
The ghost's reply was completely emotionless. To him, these treasures were no longer as important as before, so he naturally wouldn't restrict Ye Zichen's choices.
"But before that, I need to remind you that every single treasure here is a treasure that would make anyone on the Divine Mountain go green with envy. You could say that everything here is a hot potato. I can tell you're an immortal king right now, on the verge of becoming a supreme. But have you thought it through? Once you reach the Divine Mountains, diviners and rulers might all fight over your treasures. Are you sure you're strong enough to protect them? "
The ghost's words hit the nail on the head, and he considered everything from Ye Zichen's point of view.
Below the Divine Mountains, Ye Zichen was an immortal king and could do as he pleased, but once he reached the Divine Mountains ….
Everyone there was a supreme. He might be able to resist a supreme, but what if a diviner or ruler showed up?
Does he really have the ability to protect the treasure in his hands?
A man's wealth is his own ruin. Everyone understood this, and Ye Zichen was no exception.
The ghost's words were like a bucket of cold water poured over his head, extinguishing the fire in his heart.
It seemed like he really did not have enough power to protect this treasure.
Even if he said that he would sell it and not use it for himself, he still needed a way to sell it. He couldn't be sure that even if he found a suitable way, the other party wouldn't have the thought of killing him and robbing him when they saw him, a mere Supreme Martial Artist.
"You can only take one treasure here, and once you take it, you can't change it. I suggest that you think about it carefully before making a decision. "
The ghost on the wall spoke up once more. Ye Zichen, who'd already reached out, retracted his hand from the armor.
In comparison, substandard artifacts were more suitable for him.
For a Paragon to have a substandard Deity Artifact was already considered to be doing quite well. Although a substandard Deity Artifact was not ordinary, it wouldn't attract the attention of Devas and Rulers. At the very least … it could truly become an important treasure for them.
His gaze shifted towards the room with the Substandard God Artifact, before landing on the Ten Absolute Treasures.
In terms of attractiveness, the Ten Ultimate Treasures were more attractive to him.
He stared at the ten absolute treasures several times. When he realized that he might not be able to guarantee that the god artifacts would remain in his hands forever, the way he looked at these god artifacts changed.
First of all, he couldn't take the Divine Weapons and Battle Armor.
In the God Realm, those were the easiest to fight over, and they were also the most commonly used. If he took them out, he'd most likely be delivering them to someone else.
Secondly, he couldn't take the Divine Weapons with functions.
Auxiliary Divine Weapons were rare in the God Realm. For example, the Sea-Breaking Boat could fly through the air with divine power, and its top speed was comparable to a peak diviner's.
Although it might not be of much use to major powers, it was a rare treasure to the descendants of his clansmen.
He couldn't take it, either.
After eliminating all of these, he could only take one of the Ten Ultimate Treasures.
The Yao-Sealing Pagoda.
Only the names of the treasures were recorded. There was no description or ranking of the Divine Weapons. It didn't look particularly flattering either. It was a pitch-black pagoda covered in what looked like rust.
He was worried that he wouldn't be able to protect the treasure, but he didn't want to give it up after obtaining it. It would be too late for regrets.
Ye Zichen steeled his heart and reached for the Yao-Sealing Pagoda.
Without any resistance, the Yao-Sealing Pagoda appeared in Ye Zichen's hands.
The pagoda was so small that its base only covered the center of his palm.
He couldn't sense even the slightest fluctuation of divine power from the other Divine Weapons. It was like scrap metal, inferior to even a substandard Divine Weapon. This made Ye Zichen wonder why he'd chosen it.
Little did he know, the moment he reached for the Yao-Sealing Pagoda, the ghostly figure on the walls trembled violently.
After a long while, the ghostly figure spoke again.
"You've made your choice. If you're sure you've made your choice, you won't have a chance to change it. Take it and leave."
He didn't know why, but even though no one would try to steal it from him, his heart still raced as he held it in his hands.
He'd made a crazy decision. He'd chosen one of the Ten Ultimate Treasures.
"Are you saying that I can't change it?"
"Do I have to say something like that?" The ghostly figure seemed to have forgotten what he'd just said. "I can give you one chance to change it. Are you willing to change it?"
"Are you sure?"
Ye Zichen was actually a bit hesitant when he heard the ghostly figure's question.
This Yao-Sealing Pagoda was far too ordinary, to the point where he really wanted to switch it out, even if it was a substandard Divine Weapon.
But since it was placed alongside one of the Ten Ultimate Treasures, it naturally had to be special.
Besides, he'd already made his choice. It was best if he didn't waver.
"I'm not changing it," said Ye Zichen solemnly.
He'd already made up his mind; he was no longer wavering.
The ghostly figure didn't try to dissuade him. It simply laughed calmly, its laughter almost demonic.
"Ha …. Alright, since you've made your choice, you can leave."
Before Ye Zichen could bow and thank the ghostly figure, he found himself back in the courtyard where he'd chosen the Five Elements Gate.
Just as he left the armory, the ghostly figure inexplicably probed him.
