Chapter 832 - 370 Transformation Realm, it’s steady! (6k)
"Swish! Swish! Swish!"
Inside the Divine Treasure, underground layer one.
Three figures swiftly flickered through the dark outer area. They sprinted down the passage, accelerated suddenly, and with a loud bang, crashed the heavy gilded door ahead. The iron door twisted and flew out, landing heavily on the ground.
"Clang!"
Bai Xiao stopped and looked up.
Before him was the true internal scene of the Divine Treasure.
This was an extremely dark underground palace, expanded within a natural cave. Bronze eternal lamps hung on the stone walls on both sides, seemingly aware of someone's entry, instantly igniting and extending all the way to the distant end, like two fire serpents. With the lights lit, the underground palace scene became clearer; originally, there used to be many structures here.
But, as if struck by a violent earthquake, the place was now filled with large collapsed ruins. Vague inscriptions on the shattered stone plaques recorded the commandments of the Blood God Sect, blurry and unclear. Broken spiraling dragon stone columns leaned disorderly; several bronze cauldrons remained intact, cloud and thunder patterns visible.
"Sigh..."
Canaan looked at the scene and couldn't help but let out a long sigh: "It seems, three years ago when Candle Sect and I broke into here, we must have triggered some defensive mechanism. After rushing out, this place became ruins. Originally there was the Blood Erosion Tower, Dragon and Phoenix Pavilion, and a miniature Scripture Pavilion, among other buildings. Now, all destroyed..."
She stepped forward, coming to a pile of ruins, using Qi to clear away the debris. Below, there were scorched traces of explosions. Not just core locations collapsed, even internally, everything was destroyed. Perhaps when the Blood God Sect constructed the Divine Treasure, they specifically considered enemy invasions, installing a self-destruct mechanism to prevent heritage leaks.
"It's a pity, originally, every layer within the Divine Treasure held numerous precious Secret Martial Skills, the true foundations of a super first-class sect that has existed for hundreds of years..." Canaan shook her head, feeling very regretful.
She gazed around, speaking.
"Those completely collapsed building areas aren't worth checking, the contents therein are likely all self-destructed. Layer one, unexpectedly damaged so badly. Who knows, if layer two might also be like this scene..."
Canaan's eyes flashed with a trace of worry. For a better reading experience, visit M(VLEMPYR).
"What about the Void Marrow?"
Bai Xiao suddenly asked beside her.
"In the central position of layer one, there's a source there. All Void Marrow flows out from the well, then spreads along the channels imitating a western water system carved into the ground, even reaching layer two and deeper. Let's first check how things are over there..."
Canaan responded.
She wasn't sure if the Void Marrow had been affected by the self-destructive influence of the Divine Treasure. Seeing layer one in ruins, it's hard to say.
Two seconds later.
The trio headed straight towards the central location of layer one within the Divine Treasure.
Halfway through.
Rapidly moving figures suddenly halted, turning sharply to the left, where a half-collapsed pavilion hesitantly stood.
Another half collapsed, yet one half remained.
"Go in and take a look?"
The few exchanged glances, sensing mutual intent.
Immediately, Bai Xiao and the others entered the pavilion, conducting a swift looting. Moments later, they appeared again on the open road.
In their hands, six yellowed original Secret Manuals were surprisingly obtained.
Indeed, the Divine Treasure had treasures. Even after layer one's destruction, the three still managed to find decent Secret Martial Skills.
However, it is unfortunate that many top ones were destroyed.
Like the two Secret Manuals obtained by Bai Xiao, only from the Second Rank.
Both are offensive Secret Martial Arts.
"Golden Roc Nine Ruptures" and "Evil Eagle Fist Spear"
This should be the Blood God Sect acquiring Secret Martial Skills from other sects. Clearly sensed, their styles and philosophies were distinctly different.
Perhaps from some western sect back then.
...
On the road.
After obtaining two offensive Secret Martial Arts, Bai Xiao unhesitatingly activated his Pure Heart talent, instinctively walking forward while quickly memorizing the Cultivation Technique. His speed was fast, and soon he engraved everything into his mind. This isn't entry-level mastery, but Bai Xiao, through the powerful learning ability of Pure Heart, left a mark of the entire book in his brain.
After all, the place is perilous.
If fighting fiercely with strong enemies, if the Secret Manuals were shattered, that would be a great loss. He first memorizes them in his head, planning to practice and begin after leaving.
"Rustle..."
The last page fell, the whole book closed.
Bai Xiao returned to his senses, slowly withdrawing from the Pure Heart State.
However, the next second, an unexpected slight movement, a momentary fuzziness appeared before him.
A row of black information rapidly jumped out, appearing before him.
Bai Xiao focused his attention, taking a deep breath.
[Below, are the Forebodings for Profession Enhancement of the main Profession Martial Arts Grandmaster]
Waiting briefly, more information surfaced.
[Enhancement 1: Chasing Wind and Lightning (Speed Attribute increases by twenty points)]
"Enhancement 2: Elephant Intent (Gain the majestic will akin to an ancient elephant; further cultivation of any Secret Martial Skills related to elephants will consume half the Potential Points. Furthermore, the power receives a minor boost!)"
