Chapter 658: Treasures found! Natural Treasures and Heavenly Catastrophe.

Chapter 658: Treasures found! Natural Treasures and Heavenly Catastrophe.

After sorting everything out, the girls were finally able to look around and search for the treasure.

The dragoness moved her giant body, gently standing up, and she began sniffing around.

Nevertheless, the battle that occurred and the powerful minerals that composed this cave mixed the scents to the point that she couldn't pinpoint the treasure.

Andrea crossed her arms, still standing on top of Ebirah's head. "This is a bit problematic. Were you perhaps sniffing the serpent's core?"

Yasenia denied it. "The quality is insufficient for me to sniff it from so far away."

Ebirah looked around, curious, and she pointed with her streamlined claw toward the pillar in the center of the room that still stood generally undamaged. "The strongest ores are there!"

The girls approached the giant pillar that dwarfed even our girls in size and began inspecting around.

Yasenia constantly sniffed the air, and soon, she caught the trail again. "Oh? I found it."

The girls stopped and gathered toward her. After making sure that she wouldn't lose track of the scent, Yasenia followed it, and she even began climbing the pillar with her powerful limbs.

The 200-meter-long dragon escalated with ease and agility, coordinating her four limbs and tail.

When she reached the middle, about two kilometers up from the ground, she found a sunken part on the pillar that looked natural. Looking closely, there was a human-sized hole in the middle of that depression, and when she approached her nose, the scent of the treasure tingled her brain. "Found you~."

Her body shrunk, and all the girls flew up, returning to their human form.

The eleven women entered one after another into the pillar's hole, and after walking a few meters, they arrived at a perfectly illuminated and beautiful room made out of high-quality minerals.

Ebirah was already drooling while her lobster tail slapped the ground.

In the middle of the room, there were two floating orbs of energy.

Valeria laughed. "No wonder that snake was so powerful and evolved. Its situation is similar to that of Sierra."

The girls blinked and understood. Evelyn laughed and asked excitedly. "A natural treasure?"

Valeria nodded. "That yellow orb floating at the right with small rocks orbiting around it is a Heaven-Born Earth Core. Its name should be [Earthquake Splitting Rumbling Earth]. Despite its powerful name, it's a fascinating Natural Treasure that has many applications, like land fertilization, mountain creation, and almost anything to do with Earth. It's neither too strong nor too weak. Still, like every other Natural Treasure, it can grow with its master."

Yasenia's lips were crooked in a wry expression. "Earth Attribute? Sigh. We have been unlucky at being lucky, it seems."

The girls also sighed, feeling disappointed. Tatyana laughed. "Natural Treasures are considered Universally Valuable. Even if you have it in your ring, it is like a bunch of riches that can be exchanged everywhere. I myself have two Natural Treasures in my treasury… I think?"

Tatyana tilted her head. "Maybe I sold them?"

The girls suddenly became curious. Angel asked. "Do you have one, Mommy Tatyana?"

Tatyana smirked mischievously and spoke. "Who knows?"

Kali looked at Valeria and Mirrory. Valeria smiled. "I can't 'own' natural treasures, as I am considered something similar to one myself. Of course, I can befriend them."

Valeria approached the Heaven Born Earth Core and poked it, her finger rippling with a gentle energy. The mass of rocks changed to mud and happily began dancing around Valeria's fingers as if it were acting cute with her.

The girls were somewhat speechless. Mirrory also answered. "I'm a treasure myself, so I'm similar to Valeria. Moreover, even if I could own one, I'm much stronger and useful than one."

Although it sounded arrogant, her words were the truth, so the girls nodded. Then, Mirrory smirked and looked at Tatyana. "Tatyana has a Letum Essence and Fatum Essence. She is quite wealthy~."

Tatyana's smile cracked, and she rushed toward Mirrory. "This broken mirror! How did you know?"

Mirrory was unafraid and lunged toward Tatyana with a smirk. "Old woman, are you frustrated? Did you think you could cover their energy traces from me?"

Valeria sighed and appeared in between. The Natural Treasure burst with massive waves of Earth energy, covering her arms in an extremely solid Earth Armor, and she stopped both punches.

BOOM!

Valeria didn't even move, holding their fists tightly. "Can you both be a bit more mature? If you clash without control, this place might crumble, and you'll hurt the children!"

Tatyana and Mirrory tsked their tongues.

Mirrory just floated back to Angel's side and leaned on her head.

Tatyana asked, honestly curious. "Can you tell which ones I have? I mean, the names."

Mirrory honestly shook her head. "I could only faintly feel their presence. What? Do you not know their names?"

Tatyana rolled her eyes. "You learn the name of the Natural Treasure when you join with it. Of course, I know it. And no, I'm not going to tell you."

Andrea asked. "Valeria, can you use a Natural Treasure without contracting it?"

Valeria shook her head. "That's something only creatures like me can do."

Andrea sighed. "That's a shame."

Yasenia ponderad. "Valeria, Mirrory, Mom, do you think that installing that Earth Core in my ring as a booster for the ground there is a waste?"

The seniors looked at Yasenia and blinked two times.

Tatyana praised. "That's actually a great idea."

Valeria also nodded. "Right, can't they just use it to grow spirit plants?"

Mirrory bobbed her head with them. "Powerful people in the high-level heavens tend to do this, but I forgot about it."

Valeria added. "Wouldn't fusing her Spatial Ring and the Natural Treasure be even better?"

Tatyana's eyes shone with interest. "That would make sense. That way, her Spatial Ring will gain the ability to grow… Ah."

The girls saw the flash of insight in Tatyana's eyes, and Evelyn asked, curious.

Tatyana laughed and shook her head. "No wonder Irina couldn't decipher where [Draconic Heart] came from."

Valeria and Mirrory also understood and blinked. Mirrory asked. "Yasenia, take out [Draconic Heart]."

Our girl summoned her sword.

The red core manifested before her hand, and blue material burst from it, creating a giant great sword with scales running across its blade.

The profound Peak-level Heaven-Rank aura coming from it showed that it was on the verge of entering the Quasi-Transcendence Rank.

The three seniors looked at it closely and nodded. Yasenia, with only speculation in her head because of her limited knowledge, asked. "So, will you tell me the origins of this sword?"

Tatyana, surprisingly, nodded. "Yes. It's beneficial for you to know. This sword, similar to your Celestial Pearl, is an item forged from a Natural Treasure. Honestly, I thought the Celestial Pearl was your strongest treasure, but with this discovery, Draconic Heart is on a similar level. They are growth treasures and soul equipment."

Yasenia summoned the Celestial Pearl, and the tricolor and ethereally beautiful orb floated before her, emitting soft waves of Celestial light and energy.

Yasenia remembered something and manipulated Draconic Heart to lose its weapon form, absorbing the blue material into it and leaving behind a beautiful red orb that shone with silver, gold, white, and occasional galactic blue lights. They were the colors of Yasenia's energies.

The mud-like Earth Core comfortably dancing in Valeria's hand solidified and fell to the ground with a thud as if it didn't dare move in the presence of these treasures.

Even Evelyn and Andrea felt the Natural Treasures inside them quiet down and become obedient.

Yasenia muttered. "So… Can I use the Celestial Pearl for combat besides helping me understand Celestial Energy?"

The three seniors shook their heads. Mirrory was quite direct. "You are too weak. The amount you have of Celestial Energy is pitifully low even to allow that treasure to use its minimum power."

Mirrory sighed. "Where did you find the Celestial Pearl?"

They all turned toward Cecile. The phoenix blinked her blue eyes and commented. "In the stomach of a dying high-level Mental Core beast."

What is luck? This is luck!

Mirrory pondered. "It happened before Yasenia broke her fate strings, right?"

Tatyana realized something because of those words and asked. "Who is the previous owner of the Celestial Pearl?"

Mirrory and Valeria shrugged, not knowing the answer. They were knowledgeable but not all-knowing.

Tatyana asked, her red eyes shining with deep intelligence. "What about the Sun God and Moon Goddess? If so, then the Celestial Pearl 'casually' falling in Yasenia's hands back then would not be too strange."

Mirrory frowned, and the girls felt a sudden pressure that constricted their hearts with an unknown fear. "Those two? What do you know about them?"

Tatyana's eyebrow lifted when she heard the cold tone from her. "Ho, ho? Our usually indifferent Mirrory is projecting her hate without being able to hold back. What a novelty! You are not a piece of wood; it seems that there are feelings somewhere in your heart!"

Mirrory's aura dispersed as an urge to punch Tatyana overcame her body. "Be serious!"

Valeria chuckled. "So, what happened?"

Mirrory was surprised. "You don't know?"

Valeria shook her head.

Mirrory then threw a bomb that stunned everyone. "They were the ones who started the Heavenly Catastrophe one million years ago."

Yasenia asked with a stupefied voice. "They what?"

Mirrory commented. "I don't know why, but they fought against each other even when they were praised as the most loving couple. They literally used the firmament as their battlefield and destroyed worlds in their wake. Finally, they attack each other with their strongest attacks, destroying a large part of the biggest world under the care of the heavens and killing countless people. The Main Heavens, wrathful at the destruction caused by the gods, began an indiscriminate massacre of high-level cultivators."

Mirrory sighed. "Fu Jing Jing, my previous master, had to intervene a few thousand years later because it appeared that they would never calm down. She sacrificed herself, facing the entirety of the heavens by herself and damaging them to destroy the corrupted parts and bring back fairness and clarity to its judgment."

"This action that basically saved the higher worlds from ceasing to exist is what gave Jing'er the title of [Heavenly Truth Saint] by the Heavens themselves. Across all worlds, an aurora that wrote her accomplishments, name, and title appeared. Hence, she is considered the savior of the Universe by many, and both, whether evil or righteous, admire her."

Mirrory's eyes shone with rare melancholy. "Sadly, the injuries were too heavy, and she died shortly after, being the Saint with the fastest Death after achieving her title. So, not willing to leave behind nothing, she created her inheritance in the Secret Realm you girls visited."

Then, Mirrory looked at Yasenia and sighed. "You saved her from the Karma she accumulated with your actions back then, even if it was unintentional. If you didn't, the Karma of a "martyr" would've followed her for countless reincarnations. That's the only reason I forgave your offense and rude attitude toward her back then and willingly became Angel's treasure."

Yasenia honestly bowed her head, and not even her bloodline reacted negatively. "Forgive my rudeness back then."

This time, her bow was heartfelt. A person like Fu Jing Jing deserved all the respect in the world and more.

Mirrory nodded and patted her head after Yasenia straightened, her lips almost unnoticeably arching up. "Good."

The girls suddenly felt a change, as if the usually illusory and transcendent Mirrory had become more tangent. Angel went forward and hugged her with a smile. "Mirrory!"

The ancient treasure patted her head and chuckled. "Yes."

Tatyana nodded, her tone softer than usual. "No wonder you reacted so badly to the names of the Sun God and Moon Goddess." Then, she smirked mischievously. "Well, let me explain the situation. You'll probably love it."

Mirrory heard about Yasenia's situation, and her emerald-colored eyes shone as an unmistakable smile spread on her lips. "Ho, ho? So, I will be able to meet those two again?"

Even if there was no threatening expression, they all felt their bodies bursting in a wave of chills.

Mirrory relaxed and returned to her usual indifferent expression. She looked at them and commented. "Children, now that we know what to do with the Earth Core, fusing it with Yasenia's ring, let's check the other treasure."

They all nodded obediently and looked at the transparent orb holding something inside.

Kali: Very interesting revelations in this chapter.

Evelyn: Yup.

Author: Let's call today's dear. I summon you!

Cyan Mulder: Hello.

Andrea: Hello.

Cyan Mulder: Kya! Andrea, I love you!

Andrea: Thanks, I guess?

Cyan Mulder: Cough, so. I have a question about the relationship between all the girls; as much as they all get along and love each other, they are still girls, and emotions, tempers, etc, are part of being human...

Cyan Mulder: We have never seen them have altercations or disagreements between them, and with Yas coming back 20 years more experienced, surely it can't just always be sunshine and rainbows??

Cyan Mulder: Also, my girl Andrea deserves to have a soul mate mark! She always puts herself in the background but is always the most dependable, but I feel like she is always just waiting for her turn. She was the 2nd person after Angel that Yas knew she wanted right when she met her. She deserves that connection with Yas!

Author: Cough, it seems that her favorite girl is quite clear.

Andrea: I'm flattered, thank you, Cyan.

Cyan Mulder: *Nod* *Nod*

Yasenia: I'll answer you since most of the things you mentioned revolved around me.

Cyan Mulder: Okay, Yas!

Yasenia: First, about our relationship. There is one easy reason why we have no altercations besides a few insignificant moments. We have a very honest relationship and deeply trust each other. For example, imagine that Kali is feeling uncomfortable because of something I did. Instead of swallowing it up, she tells me.

Yasenia: The reason we can do that is because they know I will be understanding. That, besides being their lover, I'm their best friend, and they can share everything with me without burdens.

Andrea: Also, although I'm grateful for your suggestion, marking is something that can't be done at will. I, and all the girls, would love to have a soul connection with Yasenia. However, we can't. Even Angel's and Kali's connection is temporary.

Angel: B-But Yasenia will find a way to make it permanent!

Andrea: Yes, yes.

Cyan Mulder: I see.

Cecile: Even when Yasenia was away for twenty years, we could all feel that we remained in her heart. Therefore, how could we not give her all our love? Even after twenty brutal years, she still loves us, and this is proof of how much she adores us.

Cyan Mulder: Right…

Author: I think I've answered everything. If you have extra doubts, ask in the comments, Cyan.

Cyan Mulder: Thank you!

Author: And that's all for today, bye-bye!
