Leng Shiqi facepalmed. Delta Aurigae was still keeping him in suspense.
"Crack!"
However, a slight sound attracted their attention. Leng Shiqi looked over and saw that the cloud diagram on the bronze door had a crack.
"Crack, crack …"
More and more cracks appeared, and soon, they covered the bronze door. At the same time, the blood shadow suddenly dimmed and finally disappeared.
Delta Aurigae sighed softly and said, "This is the limit."
Looking at these cracks, the restriction on the door should have been mostly broken.
Leng Shiqi's body trembled, and his body instantly turned pure gold. Suddenly, a powerful Vajra Force burst out. Before he moved, the ground under his feet began to crack!
Vajra Force!
Leng Shiqi punched out, and the Vajra Force rushed out. At the same time, a dazzling light burst out from his fist. Great Bright Fist!
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, Leng Shiqi used the terrifying power of the Vajra Force and the Great Bright Fist to smash the bronze door!
However, the scene inside made Leng Shiqi and Delta Aurigae stunned.
This palace did not look big, and they did not expect to find anything too precious in it at first. However, what they saw at this moment could only be described with one word, and that was empty!
Looking around, the palace was only a few hundred feet in size. There were no decorations or items inside, only a deep pool on the ground.
Other than that, there was nothing else.
Both of them were a little disappointed. After going through so much trouble, they ended up with nothing. This was a little hard for them to accept.
However, it was still necessary to explore. Since this place was protected by a formation, it should be an important place. There might be something hidden, or something like a secret room.
Leng Shiqi walked around the palace with Byakugan. There was nothing here at all, let alone a secret room!
He turned around and found Delta Aurigae standing in the pool. He was a little lost.
Delta Aurigae would definitely not show such a state for no reason. He also walked to the edge of the pool and looked down.
The pool was about ten feet deep, and there was a thick layer of dark red substance inside. There was a faint smell of blood.
"This is all dried up blood. There seems to be something in it." Delta Aurigae muttered.
Immediately, she formed a seal with her hands and scattered light into the pool. The dried up blood seemed to come to life and twisted slightly.
With a 'pu' sound, a fist-sized lump of blood flew out from it.
Delta Aurigae's face suddenly showed a look of surprise, "This is a Blood Essence Soul!
Only a Sky Origin Stage cultivator can condense the essence blood and soul! "
"Quickly take this item, we didn't come here for nothing."
Leng Shiqi consciously gave up the Blood Essence Soul. He believed that after Delta Aurigae had this item, the Blood Shadow Secret Technique would reach a higher level.
At first, things went smoothly, but they all thought that this thing was condensed from blood. However, after Delta Aurigae collected a part of it, they realized that the blood was only a part of the surface.
The disappearance of the blood also revealed the original shape of the thing inside. It was a pebble-sized bead.
The bead was purple and red in color. There were no patterns on the surface, but there seemed to be endless thunder and flames inside. Just a trace of its aura made Leng Shiqi and Delta Aurigae tremble in fear!
Seeing this bead, he explained to Delta Aurigae and his pupils shrank. From the shape and aura of the bead, it seemed to be the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead that those princes were fighting for with their lives!
According to the information obtained by Leng Shiqi, the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead was the most precious treasure of the Thunderfire Dynasty. In terms of grade, it was an existence that surpassed a Rank 9 Heavenly Soldier.
Not only did it contain the power of thunder and fire that could destroy heaven and earth, it was also rumored that it contained an ancient secret technique. Back then, the ancestor of the Thunderfire Dynasty was able to soar to the heavens because he comprehended the inheritance.
More than a thousand years ago, the Thunderfire Dynasty actually had many dynasties existing side by side. Since then, the Thunderfire Dynasty had been secretly cultivating experts, suddenly erupting and destroying the surrounding dynasties in one fell swoop, thus establishing the current Thunderfire Dynasty!
Therefore, it was reasonable for Lei Chengjun to use the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead as a condition for establishing the Crown Prince.
Leng Shiqi looked at the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead floating in the air and didn't know what to say.
From the beginning, he didn't plan to have any interaction with the princes, let alone look for the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead.
However, things were so strange. Some people couldn't find it even after turning the entire sky upside down, but he accidentally found it.
Fate was indeed very interesting.
"This should be the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead, right?" Delta Aurigae said in disbelief. "Then, should we take it or not?"
Leng Shiqi also pondered for a moment. Since the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead had appeared, it was only a matter of time before it was discovered.
If he secretly sided with one of the princes, it would be fine. However, as a Dark Lightning Guard, he could only remain neutral. In that case, the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead wouldn't be very useful in his hands.
Anyway, he couldn't take the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead for himself. It wouldn't be bad if he used it to exchange for some benefits with one of the princes.
However, at that moment, Leng Shiqi's mind flashed. He looked at the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead and thought to himself, "There might be a way to keep the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead for himself!"
A treasure like the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead was definitely not something that ordinary people could come into contact with. Lei Chengjun should have placed some restrictions on the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead, so it was impossible to keep it for himself.
However, Leng Shiqi had the System with him!
He quickly opened the System Shop, trying to find something to collect the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead.
Unfortunately, he couldn't find anything.
Refresh, nothing. Refresh again, still nothing.
Refresh again, still nothing!
Leng Shiqi couldn't help but feel a little pity. He had such a treasure in his hands, but he couldn't get any benefits, which made him feel unreconciled.
Just as he was about to put the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead into the System Space, his hand suddenly paused, because he accidentally found something in the System Space.
It was a prize he had drawn a long time ago when he was in the Western Wilderness Prefecture, the Faceless Shambler Card!
The function of this card was that it could be perfectly copied into something else!
He quickly took out the card, and with a turn of his spiritual power, the card turned into a gray ball of light, and condensed into a bead at a speed visible to the naked eye. It was actually exactly the same as the Heavenly Thunderfire Bead!
Leng Shiqi held the replicated bead in his hand. Whether it was the shape, color, or the spiritual power inside, it was exactly the same.
He was extremely happy. This Heavenly Thunderfire Bead was definitely a treasure that surpassed the Ninth Stage. If he could get one for free, he would definitely make a fortune!
However, when the two Heavenly Thunderfire Pearls came close to each other, they actually produced an extremely strong repulsive force, causing the two Heavenly Thunderfire Pearls to erupt at the same time, instantly turning the small palace into ashes!
