Chapter 922: Chapter 922: Just for the ’Mystic Fragment’!

Northern Desert, southwestern region.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

...

Stern streaks of figures arrived from the northeast at great speed, piercing through the clouds on the horizon and leaving behind visible ’sky paths’.

A group was led by three middle-aged men, an elderly man, and a middle-aged woman.

Behind them followed twenty people.

All twenty were young men and women, and at a glance, it was clear that none were over forty.

"We’re almost there."

The leading middle-aged man was the Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect, ’Grini Clifford’, who retracted his gaze from the distance, paused, and slowed down his pace.

At that moment, the others also slowed down.

"Already?"

Suddenly, the twenty youngsters following behind were taken aback.

"Since the day we left, more than a month has passed... Now, we are about to reach the destination of this trip."

Grini Clifford’s voice timely reached everyone’s ears.

"Really there?"

Wyatt Barnes, who was following behind, also slowed down and his eyes suddenly lit up upon hearing Grini Clifford’s words.

"Wyatt Barnes, we are about to enter the ’Martial Emperor Secret Realm’... By joining forces, you and I, why worry about not obtaining the treasures left by a Martial Emperor?"

Brady Yellow looked at Wyatt Barnes, speaking excitedly with condensed Origin Force.

Wyatt Barnes was momentarily speechless at Brady Yellow’s boldness.

Did he need to join forces with someone?

Even if he really needed to join forces, it wouldn’t be this guy’s turn, right?

Maybe Jaxx Nangle from Gold Peak would be a better choice.

Jazz Nangle, by now, his cultivation should have already broken through to the ’Cave Void Realm Ninth Level’; besides, with a ’First Level High-Ranked Earth Realm’, his strength was so formidable that he was second only to him among the contemporary young generation of the Five Elements Sect.

Wyatt Barnes didn’t really doubt whether Jaxx Nangle could have broken through to the ’Cave Void Realm Ninth Level’.

After all, the last two fruits he consumed were uniformly issued by the Five Elements Sect.

Niklaus Woodson got four, Gold Peak got three.

Presumably, at least two of those from Gold Peak would have ended up in Jaxx Nangle’s hands.

"Along this journey, I suspect all of you are curious about the place we are about to visit... Now, I shall tell you."

Grini Clifford’s voice continued, making everyone except Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, including the disciples of the Five Elements Sect brighten up, even Jaxx Nangle not excepted.

Upon hearing this, Wyatt Barnes raised an eyebrow.

He knew Grini Clifford was about to disclose the matter about the ’Martial Emperor Secret Treasure’.

"The place we are heading to this time is a ’Secret Treasure’ left behind by a Martial Emperor!"

Grini Clifford’s words entered everyone’s ears, one word at a time.

Except for the four other Peak Masters who maintained their composure, apart from Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, the other disciples of the Five Elements Sect were momentarily stunned but then completely erupted in excitement.

"A ’Secret Treasure’ left by a Martial Emperor?"

"My goodness! What treasures must be inside a Martial Emperor’s secret treasure? Even things like ’Nine Regime Shards’, ’Grade One Spiritual Artifacts’, and ’Grade One Pill Medicines’ must be abundant, right?"

"I knew it, with the Sect Leader and the four Peak Masters guiding us personally, it definitely wouldn’t be a small matter... but I never imagined that the Sect Leader and all the Peak Masters would actually take us to a ’Martial Emperor’s Secret Treasure’!"

...

A group of young disciples from the Five Elements Sect discussed animatedly, their faces flush with excitement.

Even the Brother Nangles were not exceptions.

Demetrius Nangle looked on with anticipation, his eyes gleaming brightly; Jaxx Nangle’s expression remained stern, but his shining eyes undoubtedly betrayed his current mood.

"From what I’ve gathered... the ’Secret Treasure’ left by that Martial Emperor was his legacy from the time of his death, containing all his possessions, lying in wait for a destined successor in later generations!"

Grini Clifford’s voice rose slightly towards the end.

The ’legacy’ left by a Martial Emperor, how could it possibly be ordinary?

Even he, the Sect Leader of the Five Elements Sect, couldn’t help but feel thrilled.

"A legacy?"

Upon hearing this, Wyatt Barnes inwardly gasped.

Although he had previously known that their destination contained a ’Secret Treasure’ left by a Martial Emperor, he had thought it was merely a trivial ’game’ devised by a bored Martial Emperor.

But it seemed that was not the case.

The difference between a ’game’ played by a Martial Emperor and a ’legacy’ left by a Martial Emperor, although both were coveted by many, the latter was evidently more precious.

Because the latter was likely to contain the lifetime’s accumulation of wealth of a Martial Emperor, enough to tempt any power or person on the Cloud Skies Continent.

"I’m really looking forward to it more and more."

Wyatt Barnes’s eyes sparkled as he muttered to himself.

At the same time, a group of young disciples from the Five Elements Sect, having heard Grini Clifford’s words, all began to breathe more rapidly.

The legacy of a Martial Emperor?

What did that entail?

"The ’legacy’ left by a Martial Emperor is the wealth accumulated over the lifetime of a Martial Emperor... Whoever obtains it will surely soar to great heights!"

"I’m becoming quite impatient now."

"However, since it’s the legacy left by a Martial Emperor, why would the five Peak Masters take us to retrieve it? Wouldn’t it be more reassuring to bring the sect elders instead?"

"Could there be a reason?"

...

The group of Five Elements Sect disciples discussed fervently, and as they spoke, they all turned their puzzled gazes towards the Sect Leader ’Grini Clifford’, as well as the other four Peak Masters.

"The ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’ we are going to this time has various trials left by the Martial Emperor... If you want to obtain the treasures he left behind, you must enter and search on your own!"

Grini Clifford naturally heard the discussions among the group of Five Elements Sect disciples and slowly explained, "Additionally, the reason we brought you here is that the gate of that place is protected by an ’Inscription Array’!"

"That Inscription Array only allows entry to those under forty years old... Any attempt to force entry will collapse the entire Martial Emperor’s secret treasure! Now, do you understand why we brought you all here?"

Grini Clifford’s words reached the ears of all Five Elements Sect disciples.

Apart from Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow who were already prepared, the other eighteen were taken aback.

However, after hearing Grini Clifford’s explanation, they fully understood.

It wasn’t that the Sect Leader and the four Peak Masters didn’t bring the sect elders; it was that including themselves, none of the high-level members of the sect could enter that ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’.

Only young people under the age of forty like them could enter.

"Additionally, the ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’ is not only known to our Five Elements Sect... As far as I know, the four major powers in the region south of the Northern Desert also know of the existence of the ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’, and when the day it opens arrives, they will definitely bring their most outstanding group of young disciples."

As he said this, Grini Clifford’s face grew somewhat stern.

"That means, it’s not only the twenty of you entering that ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’—the most outstanding young disciples from the four major powers south of the Northern Desert will also enter with you."

"As for what will happen inside, you can probably guess... so, you need to be prepared."

Grini Clifford said in one go.

"What?!"

"The four major powers of the Northern Desert also know about that ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’?"

"My God! When those other forces’ young powerhouses enter with us, even if we find the treasure, it’s not certain we can keep it if they discover us."

"Any one of those four powers is not weaker than our ’Five Elements Sect’... Entering the Martial Emperor’s secret treasure this time really seems fraught with immense danger!"

...

Apart from Wyatt Barnes and Brady Yellow, who were already prepared, the group of Five Elements Sect disciples was again startled, some of whom spoke with apprehension.

Of course, some eyed the situation eagerly.

Like Jaxx Nangle, Demetrius Nangle.

When they heard that other powers’ young warriors would also enter the ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’, they instinctively emitted a strong fighting spirit.

Additionally, Tatum Cruz, Joy Thomsen, and David Field also showed a fair amount of anticipation in their eyes.

"Of course, the sect will absolutely not force anyone of you who doesn’t want to go... However, before you make your decision, I still need to speak on behalf of the sect,"

Grini Clifford said, pausing for a moment before continuing, "Inside the Martial Emperor’s secret treasure, the Sect Leader is only interested in ’Secret Essence Fragments’... As for other items, such as ’Nine Realm Essence Fragments’, ’Grade One Spiritual Weapons’, etc., whoever finds them will keep them, the sect will absolutely not forcibly take them."

Secret Essence Fragments!

As soon as Grini Clifford spoke these words, apart from Wyatt Barnes, the pupils of the nineteen young disciples of the Five Elements Sect, including Brady Yellow, couldn’t help but shrink.

The Secret Essence Fragments meant a lot, more than they could clearly understand.

As long as the Five Elements Sect could obtain a Secret Essence Fragment, even just one, they could produce a Martial Emperor!

And now, they were about to go to a ’Martial Emperor’s secret treasure’ that actually contained ’Secret Essence Fragments’?

Upon reflection, they relaxed.

After all, that place was storing the lifelong legacy of a Martial Emperor, and among the wealth a Martial Emperor had accumulated over a lifetime, there would definitely be ’Secret Essence Fragments’.

"Whoever obtains a ’Secret Essence Fragment’ will become a great contributor to the sect! From then on, within the realm of what the sect can provide, any disciple who submits a ’Secret Essence Fragment’ will have their requests fulfilled without refusal by the sect."

As Grini Clifford continued to speak, he looked very serious.

"If it’s not submitted voluntarily, but found during a search... then there will not be such benefits!"

Towards the end, Grini Clifford shifted his tone, becoming more stern, "Any of the Five Elements Sect disciples coming out from the ’Martial Emperor’s secret realm’ have to hand over their Storage Rings for us to search through once."

"We will confirm that you’re not hiding any ’Secret Essence Fragments’, and then return your Storage Rings to you. As for other items, the sect will not interfere."

"Don’t even think about how to hide your Storage Rings... You all should know, Peak Master Frank Field is an ’Inscription Master’, his mental power, once deployed, can detect the Storage Ring even if you swallow it down into your stomach."
