Chapter 321: Make a Fortune! Tomb!
"This..."
"What’s going on?"
Seeing Qingye Daojun suddenly go crazy in front of their eyes and then disappear, the True Destiny Children were dumbfounded.
What just happened?
Delivering warmth and then running away?
That’s too abrupt!
At the very least, there should have been a greeting or an explanation before disappearing. Now, their hearts felt uneasy.
"Master?"
"Master, are you still here?"
"Master?"
At this moment, their consciousness had already withdrawn from Qingye Daojun’s ’group chat’, cautiously staring at the statue of Qingye Daojun.
Everything felt so surreal.
If not for the mysterious energy still in their bodies, they would have thought everything just now was a dream.
Qingye Daojun’s roar was directed at those statues, so they didn’t hear it and naturally didn’t know what happened.
Completely clueless.
Finally, after calling out for a long time and not receiving any response from Qingye Daojun, they all sighed one after another.
It seems some unexpected event has occurred with the master, and the inheritance or whatever may not be obtainable for now.
"Master, since you have no orders at the moment, I shall take my leave."
"I’ll also take my leave."
Finally, these people left the square in disappointment and then strolled around the Floating Island.
They did not dig three feet into the ground to loot treasures, but rather wandered as if strolling through their own garden.
Seeing a fallen stele by the roadside, they would go over and straighten it.
Seeing ancient statues shattered on the ground, they would go over and reassemble them, even paying respectful homage a few times.
More than that, after doing these things, they would display a pure, innocent smile of "helping an old lady cross the road."
With each good deed, they would feel better about themselves, but their expressions remained humble.
Because in their hearts, they were shouting – this must be a test, it’s definitely a test! The master is observing our character!!!
Therefore.
These True Destiny Children, who made their names by winning the favor of predecessors, truly took on the role of owner, cleaning up the entire Floating Island. In a short period, they transformed this ruin into something renewed.
Interestingly, because of the restoration and enhancement of their fortunes, they discovered quite a bit of treasure while cleaning the ruins!
But they didn’t pocket any of it.
When suspecting someone was watching them, their integrity shone brightly, refusing to keep found treasures!
Every time they saw a treasure peeking out from the ruins, they would pick it up with a calm demeanor, then casually take it to the square and place it at the center, right before the steps.
It was quite like a kindergartner finding a dollar and proudly taking it to the teacher to hand over.
Half a month passed.
At the center of the square appeared a big pile of treasures, shining radiantly, seemingly all surpassing the Emperor’s Artifacts from their aura!
Unfathomable.
Of course, most of these things were worn out, with their runes and patterns fractured, causing a significant drain of energy and essence. Their power greatly diminished, and most would turn to scrap iron after two uses.
But even so.
These items were extremely precious, capable of reducing even supreme beings to ashes if used with full prowess.
An ordinary person would be unable to resist such temptation, but True Destiny Children are not ordinary people.
They had strong willpower and knew what they truly desired, allowing them to resist most temptations.
Although these treasures are precious.
However!
What do they compare to the favor of Qingye Daojun? If one could catch the eye of Qingye Daojun, their future would be limitless!
Gradually.
They began receiving scriptural inheritances across various locations on the Floating Island, whether in a pond, at the edge of a cliff, or on broken pillars... A multitude of strange and peculiar inheritances, countless in number.
Then, they understood again!
"This must be the cultivation technique given to me by the master, he is guiding me secretly!"
"Yes, it must be like that."
"Maybe this is still a test, the master wants to see who among us is more outstanding, I must perform well!"
Self-imbued imagination is the most terrifying.
Thus, this group of people began to hide in various corners, cultivating the divine techniques "passed to them by their master."
In fact.
These things were just creations randomly carved in corners by disciples of Qingye Heavenly Sect back in the day.
Just like some amateur students who, thinking themselves talented, would write a couple of doggerel poems and scribble them in a corner.
But no matter what.
The atmosphere for cultivation on the Floating Island improved greatly, and these True Destiny Children, once crushed by Qin Zi, began to work hard on the island.
Meanwhile.
A hidden figure silently snuck onto the Floating Island, arriving outside the square without anyone knowing.
"Swish!"
He made a clawing motion with his right hand into the void, and the Bankrupt Claw activated, causing the pile of treasures at the center of the square to disappear instantly.
At that moment.
No unusual movement occurred in the square. All the statues remained silently in place, not even emitting any light.
"It seems my grand gift worked, sending that old Qingye fool back to before liberation."
Qin Chuan’s lips curled upward.
Actually, when he saw that these True Destiny Children weren’t dead and were instead livelier, he knew that Qingye Daojun had probably stumbled.
He admitted there was an element of gambling involved.
But he gambled right!
This time, not only did he harvest over a hundred True Destiny Children, amassing five million "Race Value," but he also stirred up animosity for Qin Xiaozhu and, on top of that, the pile of treasures on the square was incredibly valuable.
These treasures were of high grade and on the verge of collapse, so in a fight, all it took was to throw them out and detonate them, and they would be an unparalleled weapon of mass destruction!
Not to mention supreme beings.
Even those above the supreme level would likely be turned to ashes!
"Moreover... These chives didn’t die, instead, they thrived, so in the future, they can be harvested again."
Qin Chuan gave the True Destiny Children who were earnestly cultivating a benevolent glance, then leisurely left the Floating Island.
This place was the No. 1 chives base.
Without the token, others couldn’t enter, and the chives growing here were quite safe.
When these chives believe they’ve grown up and want to seek revenge against Qin Zi, that’ll be the time for another harvest...
...
Forbidden Divine Mountain.
Located in the northeast of the Human Race Territory, precisely at the border of the human, demon, and beast races.
It is the most sacred place in the Nine Skies Realm, as well as the most perilous. Countless people harbor aspirations towards it, yet are equally petrified by it.
This is a pitch-black mountain suspended in an abyss.
When it once fell, its impact was so immense that it reduced the land below to ashes, forming a massive abyss a thousand miles in diameter.
And after dropping, its own energy field caused it to levitate, keeping it level with the ground.
"Rumble!"
The mountain above its waist is shrouded in dark clouds, within which lightning intermittently flashes, making it resemble an ominous tombstone in the rain, cold and eerie.
"Rumble!"
"Swoosh!"
The mountain’s perimeter is surrounded by a terrifying grey storm, wildly and erratically surging.
If caught by this storm, even a Martial Emperor would turn to dust instantly, with the body and Primordial Spirit both obliterated!
In the past, many came seeking fortune, but over time, after innumerable heavy costs were paid, the visitors dwindled.
But on this day.
Two figures arrived here.
One was a tall and thin young man in black, while the other wore a white Alchemy Master robe and was a middle-aged fat man.
One black, one white.
One thin, one fat!
The two stood on the edge of the abyss, the young man in black holding a crowbar, while the fat man in a white robe carried a shovel on his shoulder. They stood with their backs to the scene, facing the abyss’s gale, their hair and garments blown backward.
They stared blankly at the colossal black object ahead, seemingly very excited, yet somewhat at a loss.
"That’s one heck of a tomb..."
