Supreme Emptiness

Jiang Fan looked at her with a strange expression: "Senior Sister Yu, your luck doesn't seem so good."

Yu Peiyuan blushed and said awkwardly:

"It's my first time playing this, I'm a bit inexperienced."

"Forgive me for embarrassing myself in front of you, Junior Brother Jiang."

How could she admit that she's actually the luck king who beat everyone in Heaven and Sea Pavilion?

Jiang Fan showed a look of realization: "No wonder."

"I was wondering how there could be such an unlucky person losing eight games in a row."

"Alright, just follow my lead next time."

After his words, he walked towards a fork in the path in the distance.

Yu Peiyuan gritted her silver teeth slightly, you're the unlucky one!

You and your whole family are unlucky ones!

Hmph!

Soon after.

The two followed the fork and reached the end of the path.

There was only a collapsed pavilion.

Broken tiles lay scattered, and a few stone pillars had broken into several sections on the ground.

Nothing can withstand the erosion of time.

Not even the Divinity Transformation Relics.

"Why insist on running here, only to find a bunch of ruins?"

Yu Peiyuan finally found something to say, her small mouth jabbering complaints incessantly.

"If we had gone down the path I suggested, there would at least be Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures."

"Could even stumble upon a world-ending Spiritual Artifact, earth-shaking treasure, Nascent Soul opportunity…"

Jiang Fan acted as if she were air.

Showing a thoughtful expression.

This is one of three places overlooked by the Beihai Demon Clan.

And all that's here is an abandoned pavilion?

He shook his head and was about to leave in disappointment.

Suddenly, he sensed something amiss.

The site isn't a mountain cliff or a lake.

What's the point of building a pavilion here?

There must be something to see, right?

After pondering.

He walked into the pavilion.

His vision suddenly changed.

What he saw was a picturesque scene of autumn's lake and mountain wilderness.

The mountain was adorned with red leaves, all the woods dyed in color.

The wind rippled the lake's surface, sparkles danced on the water.

Occasionally, golden carp jumped out.

The scenery was extraordinarily beautiful.

Looking down.

A jar of fine wine and a dish of unknown little beans rested on a dusty stone table.

He initially thought it was an Illusion Technique.

But when he reached out to grab the wine jar, it actually materialized in his hand!

However, the jar was empty.

The little beans, translucent as jade and exuding Spiritual Energy far exceeding clam meat.

Any single bean would probably surpass a whole Thousand-year-old Clam Meat.

If someone in the Core Formation Realm eats it, they might get overwhelmed by the Spiritual Energy and explode on the spot.

He tried picking up one of the little beans and could grasp it.

Then he stuffed the whole dish along with the beans into the Heavenly Thunder Stone.

Even the empty wine jar was not spared.

Next to the stone stools, one had a sitting mat with glowing halos around it.

Clearly not an ordinary item.

So he collected it as well.

"Junior Brother Jiang, Junior Brother Jiang? Junior Brother Jiang!"

Vaguely, Jiang Fan heard muffled shouting.

His heart startled.

The surrounding scene extinguished.

Once more it reverted to the appearance of a broken pavilion.

Yu Peiyuan looked frightened: "What happened to you?"

"Why do you look possessed?"

"The moment you stood in the pavilion, you started to zone out, not responding to any calls."

Jiang Fan was slightly surprised.

Just now, when he entered the pavilion, his mind likely triggered some independent dimension.

Much like when his mind enters the Heavenly Thunder Stone.

"Oh, I was thinking about something."

Understanding what had happened, Jiang Fan composed himself and explained.

Yu Peiyuan, however, showed a suspicious expression: "I screamed myself hoarse, yet you didn't hear."

"What were you thinking about, that you were so deeply entranced?"

Jiang Fan interrupted her doubts, saying:

"Alright, let's not waste time."

"Let's quickly move to the next path."

In his mind, his heart was racing.

The North Sea youth surely didn't deceive him.

Places circled on the map indeed contain treasures.

Hence.

He resolutely chose the second path marked with a circle.

Yu Peiyuan followed reluctantly, grumbling as she walked: "Let me lead the way."

"If you lead, we won't find a single blade of grass!"

"If I lead, the ground will be littered with treasures, ancient texts, Sky-reaching Divine Skills…"

Jiang Fan continued to treat her words as the wind passing by, speeding along the path.

Very soon they arrived at the end of the path.

This place finally had a decent-sized hall.

Beside the hall, there was a fallen, rotting sign.

On it, the faint words "Divine Weapon Vault" could be seen.

"Ah! Fool! You discovered the Divine Weapon Vault!"

Yu Peiyuan covered her mouth, exclaiming in joyful disbelief.

She was so thrilled.

That she outright called him a fool.

Jiang Fan dissatisfiedly said: "Why are you calling me a fool?"

Yu Peiyuan patted his shoulder with a laugh: "Fools have their dumb luck."

"Even by leading aimlessly, you could bring us straight to the core Divine Weapon Vault, if not a fool then what?"

Having said.

She slightly rolled her beautiful eyes and said: "Wait here first."

"I'll go inside to see if there's any danger."

"Once I confirm it's safe, you can come in, understand?"

Jiang Fan looked at the plaque lying on the ground.

There was a dent made by a blunt object on it.

Looking towards the dim hall, he felt a silent apprehension.

"What, are you worried I might pocket the treasures inside?"

"I'm considering your safety."

"Don't overthink it."

Seeing Jiang Fan dazed, Yu Peiyuan said this.

Jiang Fan came back to his senses, smiling: "How could I?"

"I'll wait here for you to notify me."

Yu Peiyuan felt secretly pleased.

Haha, fools are so easy to deceive!

Brother Wei, you didn't expect, did you, that following a fool led me to a great treasure!

The Divine Weapon Vault is an absolute core in any relic.

And a fool won't fight me for it.

Hee hee!

"Okay, be patient and wait for me." Yu Peiyuan said, then eagerly slipped into the dark hall.

Jiang Fan, on the other hand, retreated to a safe spot, quietly holding a Protective Night Pearl.

Simultaneously, he silently began counting down.

If after counting to ten, Yu Peiyuan doesn't return, he'll rush inside.

"One, two, three, four…"

Just completed four counts.

Bang—

A loud thud sounded.

Yu Peiyuan's figure was flung out, collapsing heavily on the ground.

She spat a blood-spray from her mouth.

Caring not for the blood on her lips, she looked in horror toward the Divine Weapon Vault.

Only to see a stone statue with eighteen arms slowly walking to the hall entrance.

It was the one that suddenly attacked, knocking Yu Peiyuan away.

Yu Peiyuan looked down at her chest; a shirt thin as cicada wings, glowing flickeringly.

"What luck!"

"Good thing I wore a shirt that resists Nascent Soul strikes."

"Otherwise, I would have died just now."

But she was very unwilling.

Because, she found something extremely valuable!

Glancing at Jiang Fan who was hiding far away, her eyes glinted: "Junior Brother Jiang."

"I'll distract the stone statue, you head to the deepest part of the treasure vault and bring out the sword box inside."

Anyway, Jiang Fan was honest.

No fear of him pulling tricks.

Hmm?

Jiang Fan hesitated.

Really?

Is she truly going to send a mouse into the grain bin?

He is used to being plotted against by Outer Realm Divine Sect disciples.

Yu Peiyuan's move left him perplexed.

"Did you hear me?" Yu Peiyuan called out softly.

Jiang Fan responded consecutively: "Yes, yes, Senior Sister Yu."

How could he refuse?

Yu Peiyuan frowned slightly, muttering: "Such a little fool!"

Steeled herself and dashed inside.

Exhibiting a formidable Physique power!

A punch seemed no lesser than that of a genuine Nascent Soul Realm physique.

The stone statue was blasted back repeatedly, clearing the entrance.

"Now!" she shouted, rushing forward to attack the statue, giving Jiang Fan time.

Whoosh—

Seizing the moment, Jiang Fan immediately leaped into the hall.
