King Of Chaos

Chapter 118 Ch 118: The Treasure

?

Whatever the reason is, by witnessing this event, Ye Xiao at least understood that there is a small part of the Dark Emperor's soul hidden in the Dark Source Crystal. And he wants to take over his body in the future.

As for when?

Ye Xiao guessed that it must be when he comprehends the Dark Force from the Dark Source Crystal.

A warrior could only comprehend any Force after stepping into the Chaos Spirit Saint Realm and becoming a Minor Saint. And Ye Xiao has to become a Minor Saint within 5 years otherwise he will die.

Dark Source Crystal was already affecting his Chaos Divine Sea. As long as his Chaos Divine Sea completely turns dark, and he would have yet to become a Chaos Spirit Saint, his soul will be corroded by the darkness of Dark Source Crystal and he will die.

However, if he becomes a Chaos Spirit Saint within 5 years and starts comprehending the Dark Force, his body will be attacked by Dark Emperor who intends to seize his body.

No matter what happens, every road leads to death.

But Ye Xiao was not worried.

First of all, his soul was not ordinary, it has gone through evolution many times from the time Ye Xiao was still in the Source Universe called Heavens to the time of his rebirth.

Second, his soul was tempered by the Lotus of Chaos using the Chaos Origin when the Lotus of Chaos gathered fragments of his soul for his rebirth. In a way, it could be said that his soul already had the touch of the rule of chaos. Destroying his soul to seize his body will not be that easy.

And third, the moment Ye Xiao will become a Minor Saint, the seal on his universe will be completely broken. At that time, his strength will increase tremendously and he believed, the Lotus of Chaos will take care of the soul fragment of the Dark Emperor inside the Dark Crystal.

So, Ye Xiao was not that much worried.

It is just that he was now in a trance. He doesn't know if he should continue cultivating the Extreme Darkness Emperor Sutra or not.

"I will cultivate this technique to increase my strength to the Peak of Chaos Spirit Realm. At that time, I'll swallow the Million Star Heart Fruit to go through Three Stages of Spirit Fusion and become a Minor Saint Realm warrior in a single step. After that, I'll let the Lotus of Chaos decide if I should continue cultivating Extreme Darkness Emperor Sutra or not!"

Nodding his head, Ye Xiao took a deep breath and prepared to look for the treasure that could boost his comprehensive ability.

Anyway, there were only two days left before everyone will be sent out of the secret realm. And that will also be the time when the rules of Red Star Secret Realm will start recovering. 

.....

Two days later...

This was the last day. Today, everyone will be teleported out of the secret realm at any time. But even now, Ye Xiao has yet to find the treasure he was looking for.

For the last two days, he was wandering everywhere on this island with the hope of finding the treasure, however, no matter how much he wandered around, he failed to achieve his goal.

For a moment, Ye Xiao even wondered whether the treasure is real or not. But then he shook his head and laughed at himself. Looks like his hard work of finding the treasure which did not bear fruit affected him a little.

Today, Ye Xiao stopped looking for the treasure. Since today was the last day, he simply decided to not do anything and sit down simply. 

However, before Ye Xiao could truly sit down, he was attracted to a familiar aura. This aura was the aura of the Two-headed Lion. This beast was a Minor Saint Realm beast and Ye Xiao was deeply affected by its aura when he first saw it.

Ye Xiao curiously walked in the direction of the Two-headed Lion and very soon, he arrived in front of a small mountain.

Well, calling it a mountain would be wrong. It was a slightly bigger mound than ordinary ones.

And there was a cave in this mound that went underground.

The two-headed Lion was eating another Chaos Beast afar.

What really attracted Ye Xiao's attention was a huge formation right in front of the cave's mouth.

When Ye Xiao discovered this formation, he suddenly remembered what Fu Cheng told him.

Fu Cheng told him that he discovered a cave and could feel the aura of that treasure coming from that cave. However, because the time was already up, he hurriedly laid down a formation before teleporting out of the Red Star Secret Realm.

"Could it be that the treasure is inside this cave?"

Ye Xiao's eyes immediately lit up. But looking at the Two-headed Lion, he understood that this cave must be the home of the lion. If he wants to enter the cave, he'll have to be extremely careful so that not to be discovered by the Two-headed Lion.

No matter how powerful he is, the difference between Chaos Spirit Realm and Minor Saint Realm is really too big. He is definitely not a match for the Two-headed Lion. The most he could do is fight a few rounds before being defeated.

The same would have been the result of his fight against the Major Saint Realm Chaos Beast, however, before Ye Xiao could really fight a big battle, the Dark Source Crystal took action under Dark Emperor's will and killed that beast.

"I'll have to be extremely careful!" Ye Xiao muttered and moved forward with silent steps. He did not make any noise and easily entered the cave.

Because of the formation at the mouth of the cave, the comprehension energy from the treasure was spreading everywhere, covering the entire sea. But that already was enough to make people go crazy.

But now that Ye Xiao entered the cave, crossing the formation, he was extremely shocked. It is because the moment he entered the cave, he almost instantly fell into a state of comprehension. It was terrifying. One could imagine how shocking the comprehension energy must be in this cave.

It took Ye Xiao a great deal of effort to stop himself from falling into the state of comprehension.

"What kind of treasure that must be?" Ye Xiao showed a stunned expression on his face and muttered. He had no intention of falling into the state of comprehension, but if let his guard down even slightly, he knew he would instantly enter the comprehensive state.

Just to stay awake and not lose his focus, it was taking Ye Xiao a great deal of willpower.

The cave directly leads underground.

Ye Xiao stepped forward and kept walking, however, the more he walked down, the more willpower it took him to step ahead. With every step, he needs to stop and calm his breath before preparing to take another step.

Just like that, it actually took him more than thirty minutes to step inside an open space. This space was filled with a strange herb with three leaves only. There were thousands of these herbs inside the herb. And Ye Xiao could feel that these herbs could also make people instantly fall into a state of comprehension.

"This is simply a treasure trove!"

Ye Xiao muttered and stored as many herbs inside his spatial ring as he could and continued to move forward.

Aside from these herbs, this open space was also filled with purple-colored crystals. Just like the herbs, Ye Xiao also has no idea what these purple-colored crystals are, however, he still took the initiative to store them inside his spatial ring because he could feel dense energy from these crystals. The energy inside these crystals was similar to that of the herbs, nevertheless, more condensed.

In short, these purple crystals were more valuable than the herbs he got.

Not far away, a stone statue could be seen floating in the air.

Yes, this stone statue was floating in the air without anything to support it. This was the statue of a flower with nine petals. Every petal had different runes carved on them. And above the stone flower, a golden seed could be seen floating. This golden seed was enveloped by a barrier that seemed to be protecting it.

"This is...the treasure I was looking for!"

Ye Xiao opened his eyes wide and took a deep breath. His eyes were shining brightly.

Truth be told, he did not think he could reach this treasure without facing any danger. He was prepared to face dangers from the moment he entered the cave. He did not let his guard down even though it was taking him a great deal of willpower to stay awake.

But he never expected to reach the treasure this easily.

He has no idea what kind of seed it is, however, since it could already produce such energy that could make one instantly fall into the state of comprehension, he knew this was a treasure that might not be present anywhere else in the entire chaos.
