Chapter 2438 Six Months Later
“Is it possible that this heaven-rank treasure vault has another exit?” A Bodiless Celestial asked as he stared at the entrance to the underground palace and frowned.
“No.” Another Bodiless Celestial who was standing nearby shook his head. “Human-rank treasure vaults, heaven-rank treasure vaults, and the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial in the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone have only one point of entrance and exit. It has always been so in the past.”
Based on the record left behind by the people who entered the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone in the past, it was said there was only one point of entrance and exit for human-rank treasure vaults, heaven-rank treasure vaults, and the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial.
The Bodiless Celestial who had spoken first asked skeptically, “However, in these six months, there are at least 100 non-Bodiless Celestials who have entered the treasure vault. Isn’t it strange that not even one of them has come out?”
“Yes, it’s rather strange. However, it doesn’t mean there’s another point of entrance and exit in the heaven-rank treasure.” After a while, he shook his head and continued to say, “There are only two possibilities; either all of those who entered are dead or they just simply haven’t come out yet...”
Many Bodiless Celestials who were present agreed with this Bodiless Celestial’s words. Naturally, many of them also felt dissatisfied. They had been waiting out here for so long, and yet, they did not gain anything at all.
Swoosh!
A gust of wind appeared as a figure could be seen flying from afar before arriving before all the Bodiless Celestials in just an instant.
“He Run?” One of the Bodiless Celestials recognized the young man who had just arrived. This Bodiless Celestial was an old man who was dressed in a simple and common robe. Due to this reason, he looked particularly unremarkable among the group of Bodiless Celestials.
The young man was taken aback when he saw the old man, he did not waste any time and respectfully greeted the old man, “Greetings, Elder Qi!”
The young man, He Run, was from the same sect as the old man. However, he had only met the old man a few days before he entered the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone for the first time. At that time, he had learned that the old man was a rare Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial from his sect! Moreover, it was said that the old man was even stronger than the Seven Tribulation Bodiless Celestial who was the leader of the young man’s group. He really did not expect he would meet this old man here.
“He Run, did you come here because of the heaven-rank treasure vault?” The old man asked He Run.
“Yes.” He Run hurriedly nodded. He felt a jolt of fear when he scanned his surroundings. There were at least 50 to 60 people around, and they were mostly Bodiless Celestials. It seemed as though they were guarding the entrance to the heaven-rank treasure vault. As a cultivator at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage, he was, naturally, pressured by the presence of so many Bodiless Celestials.
“I’ve been waiting here for six months now,” the old man said to He Run, “At least 100 people have entered the heaven-rank treasure vault during this time, and among these people, there were many Eminent Celestials as well, but no one has come out yet.” The old man paused for a moment before he said, “Please think it through before you decide to enter the heaven-rank treasure vault.”
“Elder Qi, I want to enter the treasure vault!” He Run replied without any hesitation. The moment he entered the Beyond Heaven Secret Zone, he was already prepared to face all kinds of dangers. After all, there would be no fortune without any risks. He had to take the risk if he wanted to obtain a Celestial Supreme Treasure, a Divine Ability from a Devata Realm or the inheritance from a Great Overarching Golden Celestial!
“Hmm.” The old man did not dissuade He Run. After all, he had his own selfish motive as well. He wanted to see if there was any kind of danger in there. If something were to happen to He Run, he would be able to find out the situation inside. After all, he had He Run’s Soul Pearl, and he had a Dao Talisman that corresponded with He Run’s Mirror Image Dao Talisman.
“Elder Qi, I’ll go now,” He Run said to the old man. He did not hesitate as he flew into the underground palace under the watchful eyes of the Bodiless Celestials present on the scene.
After He Run entered the heaven-rank treasure vault, another Bodiless Celestial asked the old man, “Big brother, is he a junior from your sect?”
“Yes.” The old man nodded slightly.
“So, does this mean you have his Soul Pearl?” Another Bodiless Celestial asked.
“Not only do I have his Soul Pearl, but I even have a Mirror Image Dao Talisman that corresponds to the one he carries!” The old man said.
The eyes of the Bodiless Celestials brightened when they heard the old man’s words. After all, they knew this meant the old man would be able to find out what was happening in the heaven-rank treasure vault.
As soon as the old man finished speaking, the old man lifted his hand as a Soul Pearl appeared in his hand. This Soul Pearl belonged to He Run who had just entered the underground palace.
Many of the Bodiless Celestials shifted their attention to He Run’s Soul Pearl.
In just about 10 breaths, the Soul Pearl in the old man’s hand suddenly shattered, causing fear to rise in the many Bodiless Celestials’ hearts.
“Dead?”
“He died so quickly? He had only entered the treasure vault for less than 20 breaths, right?”
“I wonder what danger lurks in this heaven-rank treasure vault?”
Shock and disbelief could be seen on the group of Bodiless Celestials’ faces when the Soul Pearl shattered. After all, the young man had just entered the heaven-rank treasure vault. How did he die so quickly?
Since those people who had entered the heaven-treasure vault before this were not the juniors from their sect, they, naturally, did not possess those people’s Soul Pearls. For this reason, they were unaware if those people were still alive or not. They were completely unaware of what was going on inside. However, based on the shattered Soul Pearl in the old man’s hand, it seemed like the heaven-rank treasure vault was incredibly dangerous. A cultivator at the Ninth Form of the Saint Celestial Stage had died within 20 breaths after entering the treasure vault.
At this moment, many Bodiless Celestials turned to the old man and urged him, “Big brother, shall we take a look at how he died?”
On the other hand, a shock expression could be seen on the old man’s face as he looked at the shattered Soul Pearl. He muttered to himself, “He died so quickly?” Although he did not expect much from He Run, he still did not expect He Run would die so quickly. He was, naturally, curious about how He Run died. As he took out a Mirror Image Dao Talisman, he thought to himself, ‘I want to see if He Run died from one of the challenges in the treasure vault or if someone killed him!’
As soon as the old man tore the Dao Talisman, a mysterious force appeared before it transmitted the scene of what had happened to He Run.
The Mirror Image showed He Run with three other people. There was a purple-clad young man who was sitting cross-legged in the air. Phantoms wielding swords were swiftly moving around his body.
“Is he comprehending a Divine Ability?” A Bodiless Celestial asked excitedly, “Is it possible that this is the offensive Divine Ability, the Thirteen Green Lotus Sword, that’s contained in this heaven-rank treasure vault?”
“That’s possible.” Many Bodiless Celestials nodded in agreement.
“Indeed. This is a Divine Ability from a Devata Realm. It’s a sword-type Divine Ability, and it should be the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords!”
“Based on the rumors we heard, there were originally three people who entered this heaven-rank treasure vault. One of them is a purple-clad young man from the Saint Province Realm who’s known as Duan Ling Tian. Before he entered this treasure vault, he had already obtained a Celestial Sword. This purple-clad young man should be Duan Ling Tian!”
“Apart from the Celestial Sword, it seems like Duan Ling Tian has also obtained the Divine Ability, the Thirteen Green Lotus Swords!”
“Those two who are flanking Duan Ling Tian should be Zhang Yi from Yan Huang Realm and Han Xue Nai who’s also from the Saint Province Realm. Rumor has it that both of them also possess a Celestial Supreme Treasure each!”
“This means there are three Celestial Supreme Treasures in total!”
The eyes of the Bodiless Celestials waiting outside the underground palace were extremely bright when they saw Duan Ling Tian, Han Xue Nai, and Zhang Yi in the Mirror Image.
Many of them had stayed for so long outside of the heaven-rank treasure due to the Celestial Supreme Treasures that three people possessed. Now that they saw the three were alive and well, how could they not feel excited? This meant they did not wait in vain.
Meanwhile, some Bodiless Celestials were curious. “Why are there only three of them? Where are the rest?”
Someone said grimly, “Can’t you see the bloodstains on the floor? If I’m not mistaken, they have been killed by these three people!”
True enough, the Mirror Image Dao Talisman showed what happened to He Run.
What happened to He Run was very simple. As soon as he entered the heaven-rank treasure vault, it did not take long before he met Duan Ling Tian, Han Xue Nai, and Zhang Yi. He exchanged a few words with Zhang Yi before he charged at Zhang Yi. Unfortunately, in just a blink of an eye, Zhang Yi summoned a bolt of lightning to kill him.
After watching this, a Bodiless Celestial from Yan Huang Realm cried out, “This person is Zhang Yi. He’s from the Celestial Masters Sect in Yan Huang Realm!”
