Invincible Immortal Cultivator in the City
Chapter 424 - 423: Strange

Chapter 424: Chapter 423: Strange

"Stop talking nonsense. Grab these Primordial Stones and let’s get out of here before that demon outside comes in; we won’t be able to escape!"

After a bout of laughter, one of the five Westerners with a hooked nose took out a storage ring and waved towards the pile of Primordial Stones in front of them.

The starlight flashed, and the storage ring sucked in the Primordial Stones in the room like a vacuum cleaner.

The other four Westerners didn’t hesitate, immediately taking out their storage rings and beginning to absorb the Primordial Stones on the ground.

However, there were too many Primordial Stones in the underground palace, and even after filling all their storage rings, there seemed to be hardly any noticeable decrease in the pile in front of them!

"What do we do?"

Indeed, the hardest choice to make is when a vast treasure lies before your eyes, yet you cannot take it with you!

At this moment, this was exactly the conflicted feeling among the five Westerners.

"We only have one chance, if we don’t take the Primordial Stones now, we’ll never have another opportunity!"

"I don’t know how long those two Huaxia people outside can last; if they die and the demon returns, we won’t be able to escape."

It’s agonizing; it’s exhausting.

Looking at the mountain of Primordial Stones before them, the five of them felt as if their hearts were bleeding.

Leave?

They couldn’t bear to!

"Big brother, what is that?"

Suddenly, one of the Westerners pointed towards the depths of the enormous palace and exclaimed.

The other four also turned their heads and looked into the depths of the palace.

Behind the huge mountain of Primordial Stones, at the deepest part of the underground palace, it seemed like there were colorful rays flickering!!

In such a place, filled with Primordial Stones and usually enveloped in the starlight emitted by the stones, why were there colorful rays?

Could it be...

In an instant, all five men’s breathing quickened.

Heavenly treasures bring forth extraordinary phenomena!

This was something the five of them had seen quite frequently since arriving at Resurrection Island.

The multicolored glow grew brighter amidst the starlight of the Primordial Stones.

It was definitely a treasure!

If there was anything that could excite the cultivators of Earth more than Primordial Stones, it would definitely be the genius treasures of the earth.

Moreover, the five knew that aside from Primordial Stones, there was nothing else in this Great Secret Realm, only herbs and rare treasures. Could it be that the source of the colored light was a plant?

A glowing herb, something unheard of, it must be some sort of Divine Medicine, consuming it might grant one an immortal body!!

The five exchanged glances, their breathing so rapid it seemed to almost stop, their hearts pounding as if ready to burst out of their throats.

"Let’s check it out!"

The leader with the hooked nose took a deep breath, barely containing his excitement, and with his knife in hand and a light tap of his foot, he stepped onto the mountain of Primordial Stones and headed towards the deepest part of the palace.

The remaining four glanced back at the stone door.

Outside the Stone Gate, those two Easterners could be killed by the demon at any moment, and the demon could return at any time.

Lingering here for even a moment longer meant facing danger for that much longer, and they might end up not only without the treasures but dead in this place.

But...

"Let’s risk it!"

For riches, people die, for food, birds perish. Who could remain unmoved by treasures, especially rare and wondrous ones that could change one’s life?

Clenching his teeth, the remaining four people also rushed into the deep part of the Primordial Stone Mountain following the hooked-nose man. In the blink of an eye, stars twinkled, and the five figures disappeared among the heaps of Primordial Stones.

Just as the figures vanished, a cold wind howled at the entrance of the Stone Gate.

"Dammit! Daring to steal our peach, I’ll kill you!"

The voice arrived before the people did.

Suddenly, at the entrance of the Stone Gate, Sword Energy wreaked havoc and the chill was oppressive. Figures flashed as Lin Hao and Mo Changfeng burst in like lightning.

"Damn! Damn! Damn!!!"

They had just rushed through the Stone Gate and stabilized their footing when Mo Changfeng, originally intending to slash someone, saw no one but spotted Primordial Stones piled up like mountains. He was so shocked that he cursed three times.

Such an immense amount of Primordial Stones, hundreds of millions of tons, were something Mo Changfeng had never heard of nor seen in his entire life.

You must know, before the discovery of Resurrection Island, Primordial Stones on Earth were pitifully scarce, and the Primordial Qi was extremely thin. Not to mention hundreds of millions of tons, even the most powerful Huaxia Cultivation families, having ten thousand pounds of Primordial Stones was enough to consider them the wealthiest.

Even after accessing Resurrection Island, seeing a few hundred tons of Primordial Stones together was a rare sight.

And now, this mountain of extremely pure top-grade Primordial Stones...

"We’re rich, we’re rich, we’re rich!"

After yelling damn three times, Mo Changfeng couldn’t help himself, ignoring even the pain in his scalp, he roared three more times about being rich.

With so many Primordial Stones, breaking through to the peak of the Returning to Truth Realm was achievable in one go; even Refining God Realm or Returning to Void Realm, not to mention, even breaking through to the Sky-breaking Realm was possible!

Mo Changfeng’s breathing became rapid; he was even more ecstatic and excited than the five Westerners because what his Dragon Slayer Technique now lacked were Primordial Stones and Cultivation!

If it weren’t for his insufficient Cultivation and Primordial Qi, why would his Dragon Slayer Technique only be able to unleash half the power of its first form? If he forcibly boosted his Primordial Qi for the second form, not only would the backlash harm him, but his energy would be drained.

"I, I, I..."

Mo Changfeng was so excited he didn’t know where to put his hands and kept swallowing his saliva.

Lin Hao, however, wasn’t as excited as Mo Changfeng; Primordial Stones, what’s so great about that? When he was the Immortal Emperor, he had seen such amounts of Primordial Stones.

"Just fill up your storage ring."

At this moment, Lin Hao frowned, first closely inspecting the vast Underground Palace around him, then looking out again before kicking Mo Changfeng’s bottom.

"Ah?"

Mo Changfeng was stunned, then joyously took out his storage ring and began stuffing it with Primordial Stones, forgetting everything else.

"Strange, something’s off." Lin Hao’s face grew more solemn, his brows knitted tighter.

"Who cares if it’s strange, the Primordial Stones are real." Mo Changfeng quickly filled three storage rings, yet the Primordial Stones in front of him didn’t seem to diminish at all, his heart both excited and thrilled.

Lin Hao didn’t follow up; they had been inside the stone room for about three to five minutes. Normally, the giant skeletons outside should have charged in already, but not now – not a single big or small skeleton was seen. The only thing flickering outside the Stone Gate were the chilling green ghostly fires, bathing the outside in a spooky green.

Moreover, the previous five Westerners who rushed in ahead were nowhere to be seen, which puzzled Lin Hao even more.

Once inside the Underground Palace, there was only one path. Unless the five had fallen into the bottomless ravine outside, they must be in this palace.

But now... there was no trace of them, not even a hint of their presence.

Something was not right.

"My storage ring is full, and there are so many Primordial Stones left, what should I do?" Mo Changfeng returned, his face full of reluctance.

His storage ring was full, but the Primordial Stones of the palace didn’t seem to reduce much...

"Something’s wrong." The unease in Lin Hao’s heart intensified.

How could such a treasure-laden place be unguarded?

And the giant skeleton, how could it not chase after them?

Weird, weird, weird.

Suddenly, Lin Hao felt an inexplicable panic rising in his heart.
