Light gathered above the clear lake. When the illusory figure of light with a white dragon coiled around it appeared, the atmosphere in the depths of the White Dragon Hillock exploded.
Countless people's eyes turned a little red at this moment. Their breathing became heavy as they stared at the illusory figure. Dense ecstasy climbed into their eyes.
The Spirit Treasury that had appeared this time really was a Sovereign Spirit Treasury!
They'd only come here because they'd heard some rumors about the Sovereign Spirit Treasury. No one could confirm whether or not the Spirit Treasury that had appeared in the depths of the White Dragon Hillock was the one left behind by the White Dragon Sovereign, who'd once perished here. Therefore, most of them had come here hoping for a fluke. But now, that fluke had finally been confirmed.
Countless people licked their lips greedily. That was a Sovereign Spirit Treasury! Once this news spread, even some of the major powers would be tempted. Fortunately, the news had spread too quickly this time. By the time the major powers received word, the Sovereign Spirit Treasury would've already been snatched clean.
"It really is the White Dragon Sovereign!" Bai Dong's eyes were also red as he stared at the figure on the lake. Behind him, there was a group of white-robed figures. A dark gaze was also staring at the figure, a trace of excitement flashing through his eyes.
"So that's the White Dragon Sovereign?"
Mu Chen had also directed his curious gaze over. Although he couldn't clearly see the appearance of that light figure, the white dragon that was coiling around it, as well as the terrifying aura that could intimidate the heavens and earth even after it had died, was slowly rippling in this region, making people revere it.
"Buzz."
After the illusory figure of the White Dragon Sovereign appeared, he suddenly raised his hand. The white dragon coiling around him roared, and ten thousand rays of light shot out.
That light.
Like a blazing sun rising, the entire lake began to boil.
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Among the tens of thousands of rays of light, there were five that were the brightest. They shot out like pillars of light and shot towards the five towering mountains in this world.
Pfft.
The pillars of light shot into the silver waterfall that descended from the mountain peaks. The waterfall was instantly cut apart, and the light shone on the precipitous cliffs below.
Crack.
At this moment, the walls of the mountain started to crumble. Boulders fell down one after another, and as the boulders fell, everyone could see it.
Beneath the five waterfalls, there seemed to be five giant runes appearing in his line of sight.
"That is …"
Countless people looked at the talisman hidden in the cliff under the waterfall in amazement.
Buzz.
Five gigantic ancient runes.
Then, the talisman seemed to have a life of its own. It actually fell off the mountain wall and gathered together above the lake.
Roar!
As the five talismans condensed, the white dragon roared towards the sky.
Soaring into the sky, he charged into the talisman. Instantly, rays of light blossomed and everyone could see that the space there had started to distort. In the end, it turned into a light vortex that was a few dozen feet in size.
Xiu!
A pillar of light soared into the sky.
He charged out of the vortex and into the clouds, then stood in the pillar of light.
It was as if they could see a giant white dragon soaring into the sky, its roar echoing for a hundred miles. Such a spectacular scene could be clearly seen even from the White Dragon Hillock.
"The Sovereign Spirit Treasury has appeared."
Everyone stared at this scene.
Their hearts began to beat rapidly. The Sovereign Spirit Treasury that had been hidden in the White Dragon Hillock for hundreds of years.
Today, it had finally appeared!
"Charge!"
Someone suddenly roared. Soon after, the entire area violently shook. Countless figures covered the sky as they streaked across the horizon. Like a swarm of locusts, they charged into the light vortex.
Mu Chen's black pupils blazed as he watched this scene. He was also extremely interested in the so-called Sovereign Spirit Treasury. He also hoped that he could seize this opportunity to become even stronger.
Ever since he had learned a few things about Luo Li and the Luo God Clan from Li Xuantong, he knew that he had to become stronger. Only then could he not watch helplessly as Luo Li shouldered the heavy burden of saving millions and millions of clansmen by himself. In the end, he could only helplessly watch.
However, he was still very weak. Even a single Li Xuantong could easily stop him. Therefore, he had to become stronger.
In that small pavilion, the young man had told the young lady that he would become an unrivalled expert.
He still had a long way to go before he could reach this stage. Fortunately, he still had time to grow.
"Let's go."
Raising his head, Mu Chen took a deep breath of the ice-cold air. Something was reflected in his black pupils. Within his voice, there was an additional hint of gloominess, as well as a resolution that no one had noticed. Perhaps this path would be extremely difficult. However, there were still some things in this world that required one to give up everything to pursue and work hard.
Su Xuan also nodded and reminded, "Be careful. The Sovereign Spirit Treasury is no less dangerous than a tiger's den. It won't be easy to obtain anything left behind by a Sovereign."
As her words faded, she took in a light breath and took the lead. Together with Mu Chen and the other three, they transformed into four streaks of light and merged into the crowd of figures that blotted out the sky and earth as they charged into the enormous glowing vortex.
When Mu Chen passed through the glowing vortex, he could clearly feel the chaotic spatial undulations around him. His vision darkened for a moment, but it quickly regained its brightness. At the same time, a wave of heat assaulted his face.
Mu Chen opened his eyes and a look of astonishment surfaced in them. In front of him was an extremely vast lake of fiery red magma. At this moment, he was on a huge stone platform in the middle of the magma lake. Light constantly flickered on the stone platform as figure after figure appeared.
Mu Chen's eyes quickly swept around, only to discover that Su Xuan and the rest were not beside him.
"Were they teleported away by the spatial undulations from the glowing vortex?"
Mu Chen furrowed his brows. This Sovereign Spirit Treasury truly lived up to its name. It was obvious that there was an independent space inside. Such a method was truly shocking. Mu Chen was very clear that if he wanted to open a space in the Great Thousand World, he would have to find a way to do so.
Just how much ability did one need to possess?
Even a Heavenly Completion stage expert would be powerless against it.
The Great Thousand Worlds was the intersection of tens of thousands of planes. The stability of space was unimaginable. Experts who could easily tear apart space in the Lower Planes might not even be able to create a crack in the Great Thousand Worlds. However, if an expert from the Great Thousand Worlds went to the Lower Planes, they could easily cause the heavens to crumble and the earth to rend.
Mu Chen shook his head. It seemed that they had been separated for the time being. However, they would probably bump into each other again in the future.
Given their strength, they should be safe as long as they didn't encounter any particular trouble.
Right now, he had to take care of himself first.
He raised his head and swept his gaze around. There seemed to be more than one such huge stone platform around the huge magma lake.
A commotion could also be heard from afar.
"Looks like I'll have to leave this place first."
Mu Chen took two steps forward and looked at the end of the magma lake. That should be the path to the depths of the Spirit Treasury.
"Eh?
What's that? "
However, just as Mu Chen was about to leave, on the stone platform.
Exclamations suddenly rang out.
Mu Chen's heart shook when he heard those exclamations. His gaze followed the source of the commotion.
Within the lake of magma, there were several fiery-red lotuses floating in the air. Within those lotuses, there were blazing flames. Within those flames.
It was as if there was a fiery-red lotus seed the size of a thumb burning within.
An astonishing Spiritual Energy ripple spread out.
It caused the surrounding air to heat up.
"That's..."
Mu Chen was stunned when he saw the fiery-red lotus floating in the air. Then, his eyes suddenly narrowed. "These are the Fire Spirit Lotuses?"
The Fire Spirit Lotus was an extremely rare Heavenly Treasure. Its lotus seed was formed from the purest Fire Spiritual Energy between the heavens and earth. It had the miraculous effect of tempering one's muscles and bones, as well as refining one's essence blood. It was extremely beneficial to one's cultivation.
Such a Heavenly Treasure would fetch an exorbitant price, even in the auction house. Who would have thought that there would be so many of them floating in the magma lake?
"Those are the Fire Spirit Lotuses?!!"
When Mu Chen identified the flaming lotuses, cries of surprise erupted from the surroundings. Greed surged in the eyes of countless people. They never imagined that they would encounter such a treasure so soon after entering the Spirit Treasury. The Sovereign Spirit Treasury truly lived up to its name.
Mu Chen licked his lips as his gaze swept across the incomparably large magma lake. When he saw the numerous Fire Spirit Lotuses, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
According to what he knew, the Fire Spirit Lotuses rarely grew in groups. Once they did, there was a high chance that they would give birth to an even rarer Heavenly Treasure.
That was the Fire Celestial Lotus.
It was an evolved version of the Fire Spirit Lotus. It was extremely beneficial to those who practiced a fire attribute Spiritual Art. Although Mu Chen had never practiced a fire attribute Spiritual Art, his body had fused with the Jiu You Fire. If he could obtain this item, it would definitely be extremely beneficial to his Jiu You Fire.
"There are so many Fire Spirit Lotuses growing here, there must be some that have successfully evolved!"
A blazing light flashed in Mu Chen's eyes. Just as he was about to dash forward, a loud laughter suddenly sounded out from behind him. In the next moment, a figure dashed forward, heading straight for the nearest Fire Spirit Lotus.
"Haha, so many Fire Spirit Lotuses, my luck is really too good!"
The figure dashed straight for the Fire Spirit Lotus. Upon seeing this, Mu Chen's pupils suddenly shrank.
Swish.
The figure appeared above the Fire Spirit Lotus, laughing heartily as he reached out with his hand. However, just as he was about to grab the Fire Spirit Lotus, the magma below him suddenly split open. A fiery-red figure dashed out like a bolt of lightning and wrapped around the figure's legs. With a tug, the figure was dragged into the magma.
Ah!
A miserable shriek rang out. Soon, the figure turned into a puff of green smoke and rose into the air.
The expressions of Mu Chen and the rest, who were just about to snatch the Fire Spirit Lotuses, changed drastically. There was actually such a ferocious creature hidden beneath the magma?
