Chapter 432: Chapter 385: The Four Great Treasure Vaults of Heavenly Earth Xuanhuang!

Ye Chen moved lightly and swiftly through the treasure vault, his gaze sweeping over and effortlessly taking in the information about various treasures.

Although the Yellow-level Treasure Vault was the least extraordinary, the treasures within were still precious and some were needed.

For instance, there were comparatively rare spiritual medicines, and even more rare heavenly materials and earthly treasures, all preserved in jade boxes, with the fragrance of the medicines permeating the air. Naturally, the medicines were generally no more than a hundred years old, but the military merit required to obtain them was often more than a couple thousand.

Even heavenly materials and earthly treasures like the Heavenly Feather Fruit, which could heal injuries to the primordial spirit, required over five or six thousand military merits.

"Hmm, the Flying Cloud Fruit is also here. The Flying Cloud Pill, primarily concocted with this type of spirit fruit, upon consumption, can make the body more than twice as light, only the Flying Cloud Fruit that’s less than a hundred years old can be used to make the Flying Cloud Pill, and its effects are limited to those below the Demigod Fifth Layer Heaven."

Ye Chen scanned the multitude of treasures, and amongst them, he discovered some unheard-of and unseen items. However, on the whole, most were of little use to him at his current stage.

To someone like him, ordinary treasures were of little significance and merely considered superfluous.

Nevertheless, during this time, he was delighted to come across a few items he liked and exchanged them for military merit. The total was less than ten thousand, which for him, with his more than nine million military merits, was but a drop in the bucket!

He then left the Yellow-level Treasure Vault and entered the Mystic Level Treasure Vault. Relatively speaking, the treasures in the Mystic Level Treasure Vault were a notch higher whether it was the heavenly materials and earthly treasures or other treasures, which were noticeably superior in quality to those in the Gold Treasury.

Similarly, Ye Chen selected quite a few treasures that had real uses. Among them were several heavenly materials and earthly treasures and a few pill formulas, along with plenty of spiritual medicines. The military merits required for these were generally only a couple thousand, but their total cost nearly reached two hundred thousand military merits.

He chose quite a few of the spiritual medicines, and although he had much more precious thousands of years old heavenly materials and earthly treasures, and even ten-thousand-year-old medicine treasures from the most critical part of the Medicine Garden left by the Jiuyue Great Power on the King’s Ancient Road, which he had taken with him, earth and all.

These spiritual medicines were not for his use but for the three hundred Barbaric War Riders. He had found a pill formula for Body Tempering and Bone Refining, the Foundation Establishment Pill, and the picked heavenly materials and earthly treasures, as well as the spiritual medicines from the Mystic Level Treasure Vault, were all important components for it.

When it came to pills, even though it had been a long time since he last had contact with alchemy, he was supposed to attend the Dragon Phoenix Alchemy Conference on the Tiandu Continent. Unfortunately, due to the war between two realms, he ultimately had to stop.

Now he planned to concoct a batch of pills to build a better foundation for the three hundred Barbaric War Riders and then teach them the Human Origin Body Technique and the first thirty-six diagrams of the Domineering Refining Saint Technique.

Although both body refining methods were extraordinary, they were only truly useful before Divinity Transformation. After reaching the Divinity Transformation Realm, the effects of both methods on body refinement would weaken by many times.

The truly profound methods were yet to come.

Once they mastered them, supplemented by Saint Blood Essence for body refinement, the overall strength of the three hundred Barbaric War Riders would surely improve further, perhaps reaching the level to rival an invincible Saint in the Ninth Layer Heaven.

After leaving the Mystic Level Treasure Vault, he then visited the Earth Level Treasure Vault.

The Earth-level Treasure Vault had far fewer treasures compared to the previous two vaults, with probably not even a thousand items in total. However, they were undoubtedly much more precious.

Heavenly materials and earthly treasures of a thousand years were displayed on the shelves.

Even those of seven or eight thousand years emitted a mesmerizing divine light and fragrance, captivating to the soul, sealed with mutton-fat jade boxes to lock in the essence and prevent the dissipation of the medicinal properties.

Looking at the required military merits, they were at least a hundred thousand, and the better ones needed two to three hundred thousand military merits, astronomical numbers for ordinary soldiers.

Unfortunately, Ye Chen already possessed them, and much more precious ones.

Ye Chen’s gaze swept over and even spotted rare treasures like Silver Snow Divine Iron and Star Blue Silver, which were divine materials used to forge Saint Lord Level Dao Weapons.

There were scrolls of cultivation handbooks stored there, containing the cultivation insights of at least Super Divinity experts, and precious handwritten notes of insights from Semi-Saints and even Saints.

There were various powerful cultivation techniques and Divine Power secret techniques, as well as a few Half-Saint Dao Weapons, and even several damaged Holy Weapons on display, all requiring a high amount of military merits, each often worth tens of thousands and above.

There were even several Daoist Holy Weapons, with subdued auras but complete divinity, valued over a million military merits.

Alas, Ye Chen already owned stronger Saint Lord Level Daoist Soldiers, five of them in fact.

"Hmm, there’s even Star Sand, which is said to be the essence of stars from the Outer Domain transformed into Divine Sand. Once successfully refined, if scattered, it can create a starry sky to trap great enemies and even utilize the divine power of the stars to refine the foe."

Ye Chen gazed at the sparkling Divine Sand in a treasure box with such a sigh. There were several pounds worth, valued at eight hundred thousand military merits.

However, he didn’t pay much attention, as he was indifferent towards the materials used to craft Dao Weapons.

For him, the belief was strong that his own Treasure Body was the most powerful Dao Weapon, and when cultivated to the extreme, it could destroy everything, making other Magic Artifacts unnecessary.

But he did discover several pill formulas.

Finally, Ye Chen left the Earth-level Treasure Vault and stepped into the Heavenly-level Treasure Vault.

The Heavenly-level Treasure Vault was the shrine in the Treasure Vault where the most precious treasures are kept, each one truly priceless and coveted even by Saint Lord level beings.

The space inside the Heavenly-level Treasure Vault was vast and enormous but also sparse, as only a handful of about a dozen Divine Light Groups floated in the void.

All treasures were enveloped by these Divine Light Groups, suffused with potent Divine Trace Rules, and meticulously protected.

Even Ye Chen saw a figure at the deepest part of the vault, draped in a grey robe, silent and motionless, without the slightest ripple.

If it weren’t for Ye Chen’s sharp perception, an ordinary person, or even a Semi-Saint, might not have been able to detect this figure’s existence, blending as one with the void around it.

This person was terrifying. Ye Chen’s intuition told him that this figure was probably not weaker than a Saint; perhaps even stronger and rightfully the guardian of the Heavenly-level Treasure Vault, safeguarding the safety of all the precious treasures within.

——Swish——

At that moment, the figure in the grey robe opened his eyes. There was no dazzling light nor terrifying fluctuations spreading; silently and without a sound, he just looked at Ye Chen, his eyes profound and abysmal, like a boundless abyss that could draw out ones’ Primordial Spirit, making one’s heart tremble.

Ye Chen smiled faintly at him without saying a word.

The serene gaze of the figure in the grey robe seemed to ripple slightly, stirred by Ye Chen’s composure, yet still without a word.

But his presence had already locked onto Ye Chen, ready to strike like thunder should Ye Chen dare to snatch any treasure from the Heavenly-level Treasure Vault.

Ye Chen smiled faintly again; he wasn’t too concerned. He stepped onto the void and walked slowly towards the several Divine Light Groups, his eyes shining with divine radiance, as he began scanning the treasures within the thirteen Divine Light Groups.

Beside each Divine Light Group stood a stone stele with inscriptions, detailing the treasures contained within.

But when he scanned the first Divine Light Group, he couldn’t help but be astonished. Inside this group of Divine Light was a Dao Trace Divine Bottle, interwoven with extraordinarily mysterious Dao Divine Traces, remarkably special; if it exploded, even a Saint would fall.

What was even more astounding was that the Dao Trace Divine Bottle was filled not with ordinary Saint Blood Essence, nor with the Essence Blood of a Saint Lord level expert, but with the Dao Essence Blood of a Heavenly King Invincible.

One could see with the naked eye countless Dao Trace Laws flowing within the Dao Essence Blood, along with Order Divine Chains intertwining within the blood, like a clump of crimson Divine Fire leaping and filled with terrifying Blood Qi fluctuations.

He couldn’t help but inhale sharply, this was only the first treasure he saw, and it was such a rare and priceless Dao Blood. The Heavenly-level Treasure Vault’s contents were beyond expectation.

He couldn’t help but check his Military Merit value, and his scalp tingled— it was as high as 8.5 million Military Merit points, absurdly high.

With his Military Merit points, he could barely afford one bottle, and likely wouldn’t qualify for the rest of the treasures.

But upon further thought, it should be so. After all, it was the Essence Blood of a Heavenly King Invincible, not ordinary blood, containing that Heavenly King Invincible’s Principle Fragments and Order Divine Chains—invaluable to the world.

"The treasures here are all rarities from the most terrifying domain battles in ancient times, obtained at a great cost, naturally precious."

At the deepest part of the vault, that aged figure in a grey robe spoke, thus providing an explanation.

Hearing this, Ye Chen nodded slightly.

He had some understanding and knew that in history, there had been several of the most terrible ancient domain battles, known as Dark Domain Wars, occurring in the distant past.

In those most terrifying Dark Domain Battles, countless powerful beings participated, not only Saints. Even Saint Lord level existences were not the strongest, even Heavenly King Invincibles took part, stirring a war that involved the Six Great Domains.

In those few tremendous battles, each one shattered the heavens and tore the earth apart, breaking the vast landscapes beyond measure, and countless lives perished.

Powerful Semi-Saints fell continuously, many Saints also perished, and even mighty Saint Lords were not spared. Several Saint Lord Level Characters in each Great Domain died, with their blood staining the Domain Battlefields.

Rumor has it that even Heavenly King Invincibles were no exception, with several perishing on the Domain Battlefield, spilling their blood on the ground, causing an unprecedented huge sensation.

Legend has it that the crimson blood ground of the Domain Battlefields and the perpetual blood-colored clouds in the Heavenly Dome were formed during those terrible domain battles.

It can be said that those few battles were some of the most tragic in history. Because each one saw the fall of Heavenly King Invincibles, they were thus named Dark Domain Wars.

According to the inscription next to it, this group of Dao Essence Blood originated from the third Dark Domain War, in which a heavily wounded, dying Heavenly King Invincible from the Green Sun Domain, with severe injuries to both form and spirit, managed to slay a Heavenly King Invincible from the Tianhe Domain, and forcibly refined it.

Of course, this could not possibly be all the Essence Blood of that Heavenly King Invincible; otherwise, the cost would be far more than a mere 8 million Military Merit points, possibly ten times more.
