CHAPTER 1265: CHAPTER 1193: ENCIRCLEMENT AND ESCAPE (PART 2)

"Reporting to the master, there really are so many treasures!"

"Star Lord, three masters, these are the treasures I obtained from those thousands of treasure tombs!"

Lin Tong at this moment dared not conceal anything and directly took out all eight hundred-plus treasure jars he had obtained from the more than eight hundred treasure tombs allocated to him back then.

These treasure jars were stored in a spatial treasure, densely occupying a large area of space.

Star Lord Qian Lin and the three peak Cosmic Emperors like Di Hua directly went to investigate the spatial treasure.

Upon seeing the densely packed tree of more than eight hundred treasure jars and the treasures inside, which included quite a few Cosmic Emperor-level artifacts, even though these treasures weren’t much to Qian Lin and others, the sheer amount caused great excitement in Star Lord Qian Lin’s expression.

"You say there’s an even more valuable treasure tomb later on?" Qian Lin stared at Lin Tong.

Lin Tong hurriedly replied, "Yes, Star Lord, after we excavated these thousands of treasure tombs, we entered the last area of this mysterious place."

"As a result, there was only one treasure tomb there, towering tens of thousands of feet high like a giant mountain, with a gigantic monument in front of it stating that in this mysterious place, the most precious was this last treasure tomb, named the First Treasure Tomb, only allowing one destined person to enter!"

"Eventually, it was that chubby middle-aged man Jiang Li who went in!"

"Even Tian Lan Yan didn’t enter?" Star Lord Qian Lin asked, "I’ve seen her in the Nine Bends Demon Realm: her talent surpassed only by a few. She couldn’t become the destined person for that First Treasure Tomb, but a chubby, brocaded-clad middle-aged man did?"

Hearing Qian Lin mention Tian Lan Yan, Lin Tong was also surprised.

Lin Tong hadn’t expected that Star Lord Qian Lin would actually know Tian Lan Yan.

"Yes, master, Tian Lan Yan and I were both probed by the First Treasure Tomb initially, but we failed and weren’t the destined persons. It was only later that Jiang Li was detected, and he succeeded directly."

After Lin Tong finished reporting.

The scene instantly fell silent.

Star Lord Qian Lin and the other three peak Cosmic Emperors were contemplating.

After a dozen breaths, Star Lord Qian Lin’s bright eyes turned toward the entrance of the mysterious place: "According to you, this mysterious place truly is wondrous."

"I tried just now as well; even I couldn’t enter. Clearly, this place was left by a prominent figure and indeed only allows your Divine Masters to enter."

"Thousands of treasure tombs? The First Treasure Tomb? It seems this place is the burial site of that big figure, seeking a destined person to inherit his legacy."

"Humph, that Jiang Li is lucky to have such an opportunity. However, even if he has the fate to gain treasures, he may not have the fate to keep them."

At the end, Star Lord Qian Lin’s eyes narrowed.

This saintly star lord, once rumored to have ruthless means.

Clearly, she had already developed a desire to claim the treasures of this mysterious place and harbored killing intent towards Jiang Li, who entered the First Treasure Tomb.

To a Star Lord, a Divine Master is inconsequential.

Even if one inherits a big figure’s legacy, one could never escape her grasp.

After all, she, Qian Lin, was a Star Lord!

An entity Divine Masters dare not even gaze upon!

Little could Qian Lin imagine that this Divine Master Jiang Li was actually the Ye Chen she encountered!

She could even less fathom that Ye Chen was not a mere Divine Master she could easily obliterate with a wave.

At this moment, while Qian Lin and others were guarding outside.

Ye Chen and Wei Xuan continued conversing.

"Helm Master Wei, you claimed this First Treasure Tomb has many treasures left for the destined person. I’m your chosen one; what is Helm Master Wei prepared to give me?"

After understanding the specific division within the Star Lord realm, Ye Chen joked with Wei Xuan.

"My things, Helm Master Wei’s things, are Sect Leader’s things."

"Sect Leader, take whatever you want."

Wei Xuan patted his chest, directly leading the way through the treasure tomb, guiding Ye Chen to the various items inside the First Treasure Tomb.

"Initially, the old Sect Leader and I came here. For safety, we hid separately. The old Sect Leader founded the Nine Bends Demon Realm, leaving his legacy. As I was cultivating Immortal Skills and hadn’t sustained injuries as seriously as the old Sect Leader, I feigned death and went into dormancy."

"The former sect leader once bestowed upon me a treasure. Once the inheritance of the old sect leader is obtained by a successor, I will also sense it and awaken directly from my slumber."

"Thus, after I awakened, I opened this mysterious place, allowing countless people to enter. And I sensed that the one who obtained the old sect leader’s inheritance, which is you, the sect leader, is in the Divine Master Realm. Therefore, I specifically set up this place to allow only Divine Masters to enter."

"Originally, I thought of using the treasure to lure many Divine Masters, spreading the news of this place, and eventually leading the sect leader here. I didn’t expect that among the first batch of entrants, the sect leader was present. It was all destiny!"

"Sect leader, look, these are the treasures I left in the First Treasure Tomb, things I frequently used in the past. These items are different from those treasures I carelessly threw outside."

Wei Xuan’s words made Ye Chen understand.

No wonder this mysterious place only recently opened. It was related to him obtaining Sect Leader Jiang Yuan’s inheritance from the Nine Bends Demon Realm.

As for Wei Xuan saying the items in the thousands of treasure tombs outside were treasures he carelessly threw down...

This prompted Ye Chen to exclaim, "As expected of the Supreme Star Lord, the tens of thousands of treasures outside, many of which are Cosmic Emperor-level, were simply used by him to attract people."

But Wei Xuan wasn’t lying.

Compared to the treasures within the First Treasure Tomb, those outside truly aren’t worth mentioning.

At this moment, under Wei Xuan’s personal explanation, Ye Chen saw many Star Lord-level treasures within the First Treasure Tomb. Although these couldn’t compare to his Stars Tower and Primordial Star Scripture,

they were undoubtedly many times more precious than the Ruyi Qiankun Rod and the newly elevated Star Lord-level Ancient Origin Ice Bead he possessed!

After all, these were the items frequently used by the Supreme Star Lord Wei Xuan!

However, in the end, Ye Chen did not take these treasures.

"Helm Master Wei, since these are the treasures you often use, you should keep them for yourself."

Ye Chen said to Wei Xuan.

"My master’s belongings are indeed the sect leader’s belongings!" Wei Xuan acknowledged, patting his chest, "Sect leader, feel free to take them without hesitation."

But Ye Chen waved his hand, "Since you’ll be following me, whether the treasures are with you or me, it’s the same."

"Besides, I already have many treasures. If I have even more Star Lord treasures, and rely solely on them to confront enemies, it will be detrimental to my own cultivation progress."

Finally, under Ye Chen’s persistent refusal, Wei Xuan gathered all the treasures for himself.

"Alright, as the sect leader said, whether the treasures are on me or with the sect leader, it makes no difference."

"Then, sect leader, since affairs here are settled, shall we leave this place?"

At this moment, Wei Xuan couldn’t hold back his eagerness to follow Ye Chen out into the world.

He had slumbered for a long time, and although his strength hadn’t yet returned, with Ye Chen carrying the Sect Master Command, Wei Xuan looked forward to reuniting with former members of the Primordial Spirit Sect and restoring its prestige!

"Let’s go, then let’s leave!"

All things within the First Treasure Tomb were arranged by Wei Xuan. Now that Ye Chen had met him, staying longer would be a waste of time. It was time to explore other regions of the abyss.

Ye Chen once again used the Great Change of Taiyi, transforming into the appearance of a slightly chubby middle-aged man dressed in fine clothes.

While Wei Xuan directly entered a spatial treasure within Ye Chen.

As the two left the First Treasure Tomb, preparing to exit this mysterious place,

Wei Xuan suddenly smiled at Ye Chen, "Sect leader, outside there is a Star Lord, three peak Cosmic Emperors, and a Divine Master nearby."

"That Divine Master had previously entered here."

"It seems the Divine Master has spread the news about this Treasure Land."

A Star Lord came?

Wei Xuan spoke with a smile, evidently unconcerned about this Star Lord.

With Wei Xuan, the Helm Master of the Divine Church, protecting him, Ye Chen certainly paid no mind.

"Let’s go out and have a look then."

"Let’s see which of the seven Star Lords of the abyss is here."

With Wei Xuan, Ye Chen directly set out from the mysterious place.
