"Thunder Jade?!"
What is that?
Upon hearing the two words lightly spoken by Ye Kai, the four people present were once again stunned. They had never heard of a treasure called 'Thunder Jade,' let alone one buried at the convergence of a Spiritual Vein. Rainbow Net, all the way with you!
It is known that the convergence of a Spiritual Vein is always accompanied by treasures, but some treasures possess spirits and will flee on their own.
Some treasures may be taken away before they fully form to be refined into magical tools or artifacts, or they might be devoured by other spiritual beings.
But what exactly is this Thunder Jade?
Seeing that the three members of the Clam Tribe were tense but did not speak up, while Han Xiaoshan was completely urging him on with excitement, Ye Kai finally smiled and motioned for them to step back several dozen meters.
He then clasped his hands behind his back and strolled leisurely.
After a moment, Ye Kai raised an eyebrow. He knew that since the Fallen Sunset Ancestor had hidden this treasure so deeply, there must be something unusual about it.
Sure enough.
As he sent Nanorobots to infiltrate, he discovered a massive magical formation locked around the Thunder Spirit Jade.
If it weren't for the fact that the formation had already shown signs of damage, he would have found it difficult to notice the faint crackling sound akin to static electricity.
"Boom!"
With a flick of his sleeve, he extended his right hand and struck downwards into the ground, causing the entire mountain to begin shaking.
Then, with a loud bang, a protruding rock on the opposite cliff shattered. Amidst the scattered grayish-blue rubble, a violet-blue light emerged, pulsating rhythmically like a human breath.
Azure Purple Radiance flickered, emitting a Thunderous Roar that resonated deeply.
Ye Kai moved his feet and instantly appeared outside the cliff, standing in mid-air.
“Tsk tsk!”
“Xiaoshan, your luck is quite good. Not only is this a Thunder Jade, but it’s also an exceptionally pure Thunder Spirit Gem. You wouldn’t even find such a Material Treasure with a lantern!”
While Ye Kai had no intention of snatching it away, he couldn't help but acknowledge the luck of this young man. This Thunder Spirit Gem was already considered half a treasure; with proper nurturing and further refinement, it could become a top-tier lightning artifact.
Of course, this would also require the assistance of several other Material Treasures.
“Hahaha, thank you, senior! Thank you, senior!”
Han Xiaoshan might not fully grasp the actual value of the Thunder Spirit Gem, but just by observing its might, he knew it was undoubtedly a rare Material Treasure.
What was even more precious was how well it aligned with his own magical powers and Technique.
Once refined, his strength would increase dramatically.
Ignoring the three nervous sea clams nearby, Ye Kai approached the cliff wall. His right arm extended again; with a tremor, he explosively shattered the rock face. With his other hand, he didn’t need any spells—he simply channeled his power and struck a Light Screen with a punch.
“Bang!!!”
The Light Screen shattered, scattering into countless fragments of Spirit Light.
A three-meter-wide Tan Yellow Rock immediately trembled as it burst forth from the broken array's opening.
Though it had detached from the cliff, the rock did not fall to the ground. It seemed almost alive, hesitating as if unsure whether to leave immediately or wait for its destined owner.
In just a moment, the center of the Tan Yellow Rock suddenly flickered with a flash of Purple Light, accompanied by a series of Thunderous Roars.
"Essence of Earth, Essence of Geng Metal, Aqua Essence!!!"
Ye Kai's eyes widened in shock as he beheld the massive stone: "Three Talents Surrounding One Guard, this is the Three Talents Formation. The Thunder Spirit Gem has actually developed sentience; it's a living treasure..."
He was utterly flustered.
Initially, he had only speculated about the presence of Thunder Jade. After using Nano Worms for detection, he had faintly sensed a hint of Purple Light that felt similar to what he knew of the Thunder Spirit Gem.
Never did he expect that this would turn out to be a living treasure.
Hearing Ye Kai's exclamation of surprise, the three members of the Clam Tribe looked increasingly anxious. They wanted to warn their Young Master but were also concerned that Ye Kai might take aggressive action to seize it.
After all, this was a treasure that had autonomously birthed its own sentience; it was something that even those in the Void Refinement and Unity Realm or Old Demons at the Transcend Tribulation stage would covet.
"Hehehe..."
Han Xiaoshan was dumbfounded. Even though he had never seen a living treasure before, he had heard tales of such supreme artifacts—treasures that only appeared in legends.
He felt excited and wished to claim it for himself.
But in an instant, he sighed deeply. Such a precious item in his hands would likely bring more trouble than fortune.
If they couldn't even protect a mere Falling Sunset Pearl, how could they safeguard this Treasure? If word got out about it, they would probably be slaughtered on the spot, their very souls torn to shreds.
Had it not been for his previous near-encounter with madness, he might have already succumbed to greed at this moment.
The more he understood the value of this treasure, the more his heart raced and his scalp tingled with fear.
"Senior, please quickly take this treasure away," Han Xiaoshan urged anxiously.
"Young Master!"
The three members of the Clam Clan standing beside him were sweating profusely. How could such a treasure be given away so casually?
"We can't keep this treasure for long."
Han Xiaoshan waved his hand and spoke in a deep voice, "Falling Sunset Mountain has already fallen into decline. Even the Mountain Protection Formation has been easily breached. A mere Falling Sunset Pearl could lead to the complete destruction of our Falling Sunset Mountain, let alone this treasure!"
With that, he turned again, bowed deeply, and said with a serious expression, "Senior, please quickly take this treasure away. Our Falling Sunset Mountain is not worthy of possessing it."
Ye Kai was initially taken aback, but then a glint of understanding flashed in his eyes. Given the current precarious situation of Falling Sunset Mountain, if they were to truly obtain this treasure, they would likely face annihilation in the next moment.
Thinking of this, he immediately acted. A massive hand formed from the Dual Polarity Magnetic Divine Light appeared behind him, grasping the treasure. With a casual shake, it vanished instantly.
Only when the treasure was suppressed beneath White Jade Mountain did he finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Even his heartbeat quickened slightly; this was comparable to a supreme artifact.
If it appeared in the world of Zhe, this item could incite life-and-death battles among figures at the half-step Emperor level.
This was material for an Imperial Weapon!
However, with his current composure, he quickly regained his senses. Looking at the three faces filled with disappointment and even despair, alongside one full of determination and sincerity, Ye Kai smiled as well.
"Good job. To remain calm in the face of treasure is commendable."
He paused for a moment as the three members of the Clam Clan couldn't help but want to speak. He continued, "Since I have taken such a treasure from you, our sect has ample reason to provide protection for your Falling Sunset Mountain."
"At the same time, if you don't mind, you can settle down at my White Jade Mountain. At least it would be much better than living here in constant fear."
With a wave of his hand, a Jade Mountain appeared in mid-air, an incomparably terrifying and magnificent aura enveloping the Scope for miles around, causing nearly all Creatures to feel dizzy.
"Look!!!"
With a startled shout, all the Creatures on the Falling Sunset Mountain Range looked up, their faces filled with shock. Above them, the air suddenly began to ripple violently, as if boiling water was churning.
Holy Radiance surged forth like ocean waves, accompanied by white Misty Vapor, spreading out in all directions and quickly dyeing the entire sky a jade color.
Everyone stared in awe at the Holy Radiance Sea of Clouds above them, where a mountain rising three thousand meters high, resembling white jade, flickered in and out of view at its center.
The terrifying fluctuations of power were vast as the heavens and earth, majestic like the four seas and eight wildernesses!
Within the white Misty Vapor, there were precious trees, pavilions and towers, cranes dancing and spirit beasts leaping… countless birds and beasts rose and fell in an endless display of vibrant life.
Many Transformations surged within the sacred Radiance, appearing alongside the White Jade Sacred Mountain like phantoms.
On that White Jade Sacred Mountain, there were flowing springs and cascading waterfalls, fragrant orchids and jade trees. In the distance, it seemed that fairies were frolicking about, creating a scene reminiscent of a dream.
