“Tiger!”
Ye Kai's eyes suddenly lit up as he gently spoke, “As the Primordial Spirit True Monarch of the Tiger Shark Clan, you surely have more than just one Water Palace, right?”
Hu Qianfang was taken aback by the first sentence.
Tiger?!
What kind of ridiculous title is that?!
Moreover, how did the conversation shift to his treasure trove so quickly?
However, facing the imposing presence of this Your Excellency, he dared not defy him. He could only swallow his pride and force a smile, saying, “In response to Your Excellency, Subordinate indeed has a few secret Caves.”
Ye Kai's lips curled slightly as he glanced at him sideways. “A few?”
“Three... three!” Hu Qianfang swallowed hard and gritted his teeth.
“Hehehe...” Ye Kai said nothing, merely smiling at him.
“Four!”
“Hehehe…”
“Five…”
Ye Kai's expression darkened, and his eyes began to narrow. “Tiger, you probably won’t need these Caves anymore. Following This Sect, who knows when you’ll return? If they are discovered by other Powerful Beings, it would all be for nothing!”
“Is that right?”
As soon as the words fell, Hu Qianfang trembled all over, no longer daring to raise his head to meet the gaze of His Excellency. However, it was hard for him to simply give up; he still felt a sense of unwillingness.
But as time passed, the atmosphere grew increasingly tense, and a faint hint of killing intent began to emerge from Ye Kai's eyes.
"Foolish one, your life and death are in His Excellency's hands. Why do you still care about those trivial possessions? Living is what truly matters."
"Idiot, do you want to die? It's just a collection; don't you know about the Soul Searching Technique?"
At that moment, two urgent voices reached Hu Qianfang's ears.
Instantly, he snapped back to reality. His life was in someone else's hands; could he really die for these external possessions?
A dignified Primordial Spirit True Monarch, reduced to such unwillingness, suffocated by greed?
A chill rose from his tailbone and shot straight to his head. Hu Qianfang shivered and woke up. He immediately bowed at a ninety-degree angle, his face filled with fear as he pleaded for mercy. "Your Excellency, Subordinate deserves death. I implore Your Excellency to spare me; I will mark the location of the Seven Caves right away."
"Hmph!"
Ye Kai snorted coldly. Although he was also curious about Hu Qianfang's collection, he was more interested in reprimanding him. Otherwise, this fellow would continue to see himself as a Primordial Spirit True Monarch, failing to grasp the current situation.
"This time I'll let it go. This Sect will not punish you without reason, but remember your place. If there is a next time..."
Some things didn't need to be stated too clearly; leaving an open-ended warning allowed them the freedom to imagine and speculate.
"Your Excellency, Subordinate has discovered a magical treasure!"
At that moment, from a distance, Gongyang Zhenjun suddenly spoke up.
Ye Kai turned around, a hint of confusion on his face, but suddenly his expression changed slightly.
Gongyang Zhenjun was indeed holding a magical artifact, and the strange fluctuations and aura emanating from it were all too familiar to him.
The Falling Sunset Pearl and the Wutu Yunguang Scarf both possessed similar auras and peculiar vibrations.
This artifact, which resembled the Nine-Tiered Pagoda, was taken by Ye Kai. When he placed it alongside the other two artifacts, all three began to glow with a faint halo, resonating with each other in a tremor.
After pondering for a moment, he opened his mouth and released a stream of magical energy, forming several strange seals. He then shouted, "Rise!"
The three artifacts flew up simultaneously, forming the Three Talents Formation in the air. The halos circulated among them, releasing intense waves of magical power. However, after just a moment, the halos and magical fluctuations retracted simultaneously, returning to normal.
At the same time, an odd feeling made Ye Kai think that he had forgotten something important.
Looking at the three floating artifacts above him, he raised an eyebrow and waved his sleeve. A scroll slowly unfurled in front of him, and a fragrant aroma began to waft through the air.
Within the opened scroll, brilliant light shone forth as a chubby child appeared in mid-air. Dressed in a red belly band and green shorts, with hair styled into pigtails and bare white feet, the child gazed wide-eyed at the three artifacts above, drooling in anticipation.
As soon as the child appeared, he immediately fixed his round eyes on the floating artifacts and began to drool.
Suddenly, he transformed into a streak of white light, darting around the three artifacts at high speed. A powerful wave of magical energy erupted from him, sending everyone flying—both Ye Kai and the three Primordial Spirit True Monarchs were caught off guard.
Even the barrier that had trapped Lin Feng shattered at that moment, sending him crashing away in disarray.
At this time, amidst everyone's stunned expressions, a child's clear laughter rang out in the air. He laughed continuously as if he had found new toys or seen long-lost relatives, giggling incessantly.
Ye Kai stroked his chin with a smile creeping onto his lips. He casually unleashed several streams of magical energy that flowed directly into the unfurled scroll. Instantly, clouds of Cloud Qi began to spread out from within it.
The three gradually fused treasures and the doll were enveloped by an endless Cloud Qi, slowly descending until they were engulfed in a blinding light, ultimately sinking into the scroll.
Witnessing this scene, everyone felt invigorated, and Ye Kai was no exception. He raised his hand, summoning the scroll back to him.
Great Nine Xuanmei Jade Emperor Divine Light Tower!!!
Great Nine Xuanmei Jade Emperor Divine Light Tower?
Heaven and Earth Diagram!!!
Heaven and Earth Diagram?
What are these?
Ye Kai found himself in a peculiar state, and seeing his expression, Gongyang Zhenjun, She Yuanjun, and the newly joined Hu Qianfang exchanged glances, silently agreeing to protect him.
“Lacking Haoguang!!!”
“Missing ninety-one Divine Wind Bells!!!”
“Missing the Purple Mansion Divine Stele!!!”
What the hell!!!
The moment Ye Kai grasped the scroll, his entire spirit seemed to plunge into an inexplicable realm. In an instant, he understood that the scroll in his hand was connected to the name of the Nine-Tiered Pagoda that had fused with the three treasures.
The scroll was called Heaven and Earth Diagram; it was a very unique treasure and also an incredibly powerful one.
It is unconventional because it cannot be used for attack or defense; it can only be used for storage. Of course, once someone enters it, they will immediately be sealed within.
In that sense, it is still quite powerful.
From what he understood, even immortals would be instantly trapped if they entered, including the Primordial Spirit.
Although it sounded exaggerated, Ye Kai did not truly believe he could achieve such a feat.
Even if this Cultivation World had immortals, he would only be able to stutter if asked to capture one.
Immortals are considered immortals precisely because they exist on a different level from mortals and cultivators; they belong to another realm of creatures.
If the Heaven and Earth Diagram could truly seal an immortal, would the immortal really be so foolish as to stand there motionless and let him catch them?
Thus, Ye Kai hardly paid any attention to that aspect.
His focus had long since shifted to another treasure.
"Great Nine Xuanmei Jade Emperor Divine Light Tower!!!"
