Chapter 355 - Chapter 355 The Treasure House Opens, Competition Begins

"Haha! King Towering Bear, King Verdant End, King Pheasant Wing, I've found a treasure vault that requires two tokens to open! Hurry over!"

King Overbearing Autumn's joyful voice echoed in everyone's ears, and the entire inner region seemed to vibrate from his voice, the sound waves stirring up a sky full of dust.

After hearing this voice, King Pheasant Wing asked, "King Overbearing Autumn found a treasure vault, what do we do now?"

"We'll go open the treasure vault," King Towering Bear's eyes gleamed. "If there are truly treasures inside, then we'll join forces to seize them!"

"If there are really treasures inside the treasure vault, I'll be responsible for holding back King Mistflare," Ender said. "You all go grab the treasures."

"No problem," King Pheasant Wing said confidently. "As long as King Mistflare can't make a move, then King Overbearing Autumn and King Frost Steed won't be able to stop us."

King Towering Bear nodded in agreement, "That's right, among the Demon race's three Pinnacle Pinnacle powerhouses, only King Mistflare is truly troublesome. The other two are comparable in strength to us, and we have an advantage in speed."

Ender nodded upon hearing this, "Alright, then let's go now."

With a "whoosh," the three of them transformed into three streaks of light and returned the way they came, then contacted the Demon race's King Overbearing Autumn, gradually approaching his location.

...

On the other side, at the Demon race team's location.

A dread-gold ghoul, covered in golden scales, with a wolf-like head but a single horn, and incredibly complex secret patterns on its head scales, was staring at a red gate over a hundred meters tall.

This gate was embedded in the structure, its surface carved with numerous complex secret patterns, along with some linear patterns, forming a beautiful and sacred picture.

In the center of the gate, there was a circular groove, which also contained many complex secret patterns connected to the Law secret patterns of the entire gate.

King Overbearing Autumn looked at the gate full of complex secret patterns for a while, then turned and asked, "King Frost Steed, do you think there will really be treasures inside?"

"The possibility is very high," King Frost Steed replied. "According to the data, before the Hongwu Secret Realm was opened and became a battlefield, the Immortals among the Scarlet Rainbow Continent natives often moved about in the Hongwu Secret Realm."

"It's hard to calculate how many treasures they collected over endless years."

"It is said that they gathered a large number of treasures from their clan at that time, intending to have Universe Venerables and King-level Immortals lead a breakthrough to escape to other regions and revive their clan."

"However, their escape team was completely wiped out, and the gathered treasures were also seized by the powerhouses of our four Pinnacle clans."

Finally, King Frost Steed stared at the gate and whispered, "Compared to the treasures gathered by the Scarlet Rainbow Continent native clans during their escape, the treasures buried in this Holy Land are but a drop in the ocean."

"Even if it's a drop in the ocean, it's still an incredibly huge fortune for us Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortals."

King Mistflare said coldly, "Don't forget, the Hongwu Secret Realm is a place rich in treasure resources. If it weren't for it becoming a battlefield for our four Pinnacle clans, those alien Universe Venerables would definitely come in to explore."

"If there are really treasures inside, then we must be wary of the Human faction's three Pinnacle Pinnacle powerhouses contending for them."

"King Frost Steed, you block King Verdant End for me," King Mistflare instructed. "Besides his excellent defensive means, King Verdant End's attack power and flying speed are very weak. He should be responsible for holding me back."

"No problem," King Frost Steed responded.

King Overbearing Autumn said from the side, "Don't worry, after the treasure vault opens, I will cast Space Lockdown. It's impossible for King Verdant End to catch up to you at his speed."

King Mistflare said, "I will try to be the first to enter the treasure vault to gain the initiative. If I can be the first to enter, even King Pheasant Wing won't be able to obtain treasures from me."

"Then I'll leave the treasures to King Mistflare," King Frost Steed nodded.

...

Soon after.

Ender and the other two arrived in front of the treasure vault and saw the gate embedded in the structure, its surface covered with complex secret patterns and mysterious pictures.

Upon seeing the circular groove on the gate, King Towering Bear nodded slightly and said, "It is indeed a gate that requires two tokens to open."

King Frost Steed was the first to speak, "King Towering Bear, come over and open this treasure vault gate together."

"Alright, but according to the rules of our last exploration, our allies need to withdraw," King Towering Bear said in a deep voice.

"No problem, King Overbearing Autumn and I can withdraw, but I need to enter the treasure vault first," King Mistflare's voice was cold.

"Impossible!" King Towering Bear flatly refused. "If King Mistflare enters the treasure vault, who can snatch anything from you, who can teleport?"

"How about this: you and King Frost Steed go in first, and then the four of us each use our own methods, how about that?" King Overbearing Autumn suggested.

"Let's go with that plan. After King Frost Steed and I open the treasure vault, we'll enter first," King Towering Bear nodded slightly.

"Then it's settled," King Mistflare said coldly. "Let's withdraw for now."

With that, King Mistflare flew away first to show her sincerity.

King Overbearing Autumn grinned, "King Verdant End, King Pheasant Wing, please."

Ender didn't speak, stepping on his Shadow Shuttle and chasing after King Mistflare.

Seeing this, King Overbearing Autumn thought to himself, "King Verdant End's goal is indeed to hold back King Mistflare…"

"King Overbearing Autumn, let's go too," King Pheasant Wing lightly flapped his wings and flew in another direction.

"No problem," King Overbearing Autumn replied first, then nodded slightly to King Frost Steed and followed King Pheasant Wing, leaving only a voice transmission: "When King Mistflare enters the treasure vault, you must stop King Verdant End."

"Don't worry about that, although I can't harm King Verdant End, it's very easy to stop him," King Frost Steed replied via voice transmission.

...

After several turns and flying for tens of thousands of kilometers, seeing the fiery red stream of light ahead slow down, Ender also began to decelerate.

King Mistflare asked coldly, "King Verdant End, your goal should be to hold me back, right?"

Ender calmly replied, "Since you've already guessed, why ask?"

"Heh, you don't really think you can hold me back, do you?" King Mistflare said disdainfully. "Even if you comprehended teleportation, do you think you'll have a chance to use it here?

"Without teleportation, with your flying speed, trying to hold me back is just a joke."

Ender did not answer, secretly using his detector for detailed reconnaissance, and at the same time, converting the detected terrain into a map, so that he could quickly return to the treasure vault later.

...

After their respective allies had gone far, King Towering Bear said, "King Frost Steed, let's open the treasure vault."

"Alright."

King Frost Steed nodded, taking out an irregular, semi-circular red metal plate from his world ring, on which complex secret patterns were carved.

King Towering Bear also took out a metal plate, similar in shape to King Frost Steed's, but with some differences in detail, and more importantly, the two could complement each other, as if they were originally one.

King Frost Steed and King Towering Bear stood several kilometers apart on either side of the gate, each enveloping their respective tokens with Immortal Energy, and together placed them into the groove on the treasure vault gate.

Click!

With a soft click, the two tokens enveloped by Immortal Energy merged into one, fitting perfectly into the gate's groove.

Under the combined drive of the two Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortals, the seemingly integral token rotated slightly in the groove, emitting a soft sound. Tap, tap, tap!

Accompanying the soft sounds, the gate vibrated slightly, and soon the vibrations became more intense, eventually beginning to rise slowly.

Seeing the treasure vault gate open, King Frost Steed quickly said, "The door's open, retrieve the tokens."

At the same time as King Frost Steed's reminder, King Towering Bear had already retrieved the token enveloped in Immortal Energy.

The slowly rising treasure vault gate gradually revealed the sealed treasure vault passage. When King Frost Steed and King Towering Bear each sent voice transmissions to notify their allies, they didn't notice several secret patterns on the treasure vault gate glowing faintly red.

Buzz!

A Immortal Energy fluctuation extended from afar, and at the same time, an invisible, miraculous fluctuation arose, making the Universe space extremely solid.

Space Lockdown!

Whoosh!

A streak of light flew in at extreme speed, followed by another golden streak of light.

"It's King Pheasant Wing and King Overbearing Autumn, King Mistflare hasn't arrived yet."

Seeing the two streaks of light approaching, King Frost Steed's expression changed slightly, then he shot towards the inside of the treasure vault.

"Don't even think about getting ahead."

King Towering Bear transformed into a black streak of light and also rushed towards the treasure vault.

Boom!

Black and white streaks of light collided at the treasure vault gate, and powerful energy fluctuations also arose, invisible shockwaves spreading in all directions, stirring up dust inside the treasure vault.

King Towering Bear and King Frost Steed briefly exchanged blows at the treasure vault gate, then both entered the treasure vault simultaneously and engaged in battle again.

Boom! Boom!

Law fluctuations were intense, and their attacks caused slight tremors in the treasure vault itself. Invisible shockwaves swept through the entire treasure vault and spread in all directions.

Some decorative items inside the treasure vault, due to their age and inherent fragility, were directly damaged by these invisible impacts.

"There are treasures!"

King Towering Bear fought with Frost Steed while observing the interior of the treasure vault, which had a maximum diameter of nearly ten thousand kilometers.

he saw an huge treasure chest at the end of the treasure vault, nearly ten meters tall, entirely made of red g-grade metal, scarlet red fine gold.

The moment he saw the treasure chest, King Towering Bear could tell there were treasures inside, because the treasure chest alone, made entirely of g-grade metal scarlet red fine gold, weighed approximately one hundred thousand tons.

And the price of scarlet red fine gold is 10-200,000 Mixed units per ton, with a total value exceeding 10 billion Mixed units!

Not only that, he also noticed other metal Materials around the treasure chest, such as Skyjade Gold, green brilliant copper essence, and other G-level Materials, weighing in at hundreds of tons.

"The treasures are mine!"

Upon seeing the treasure chest made entirely of g-grade metal scarlet red fine gold, King Towering Bear gritted his teeth and directly burned a small amount of Immortal Energy, shaking off King Frost Steed.

"Never!"

King Frost Steed disregarded any plans, also burning Immortal Energy and rushing towards the treasure chest.

Due to burning Immortal Energy first, and the treasure vault's maximum diameter being only nearly ten thousand kilometers, King Towering Bear was able to touch the treasure chest first.

"Haha, I got it!"

King Towering Bear was inwardly delighted, quickly using Immortal Energy to imprint his spiritual mark on the treasure chest and attempting to put it into his world ring, but the result stunned him.

"This treasure chest isn't a weapon or armor, so it's normal that I can't imprint a spiritual mark on it. But the problem is, why can't even the world ring take it in?"

He looked surprised, but in the next moment, he realized, "This treasure chest is one with the treasure vault, and the treasure vault is one with the Holy Land, so it cannot be put into the world ring."

Seeing that he couldn't put the treasure chest into his world ring, King Towering Bear tried to open the treasure chest, but even though he covered the entire treasure chest with Immortal Energy and painstakingly tried, he still couldn't open it.

Temporarily unable to open the treasure chest, King Towering Bear had no choice but to focus on the G-level Materials around the treasure chest, continuously putting the G-level Materials into his world ring.

Seeing this, King Frost Steed understood that the treasure chest could not be put into the world ring, nor could it be opened, so he began to contend with King Towering Bear for the G-level Materials.

Boom!

The two Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortals, due to snatching Materials, fought fiercely again, and at this moment, King Pheasant Wing had just arrived at the treasure vault.

The arriving King Pheasant Wing, seeing the two Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortals who had entered the treasure vault earlier, fighting fiercely around a treasure chest, thought they were contending for control of the treasure chest, and prepared to go help.

...

Tens of thousands of kilometers away from the treasure vault gate.

Ender and King Mistflare were both flying in the air, confronting each other in a passage.

"King Verdant End, the treasure vault gate is open," suddenly, King Towering Bear's voice entered Ender's mind.

"Star Eating Grass!"

Hearing the voice transmission, he consciously gave the command for the Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass, which had already been prepared, to move out.

Whoosh!

Like a white flower blooming, the Star Eating Grass's five hundred grass blades extended from under Ender's armor, instantly blocking the entire passage.

"Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass!"

King Mistflare had just prepared to move when she saw the Star Eating Grass had already blocked the passage back to the treasure vault. When she received King Frost Steed's voice transmission saying there were treasures in the treasure vault, she immediately became anxious.

Knowing how troublesome the Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass was, King Mistflare burned a small amount of Immortal Energy and turned to flee down a passage leading to the treasure vault.

Before notifying Ender and the others, King Mistflare had already familiarized herself with the surrounding terrain, knowing that there was more than one path leading to the treasure vault, just in case of unexpected situations.

And as it turned out, she was right!

"Decisive enough."

Ender saw King Mistflare burning Immortal Energy to flee, then retracted the Star Eating Grass and transformed into a streak of light, taking a shortcut back to the treasure vault.

Although the two took different passages, they quickly converged onto one passage, and so a fiery red streak of light and a dark green streak of light appeared, one after the other, rushing towards the treasure vault.

"King Verdant End, your teacher really dotes on you!"

The fiery red streak of light that was King Mistflare was in front, looking at Ender, who was relentlessly chasing her, she said angrily, "You just became an Immortal not long ago, and you've actually cultivated Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass!"

Originally, she was confident she could quickly shake off Ender, but she didn't expect him to release Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass, which almost entangled her.

The Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass, that was equivalent to a High Stage King-Level Immortal, and due to its incredibly massive Divine Body and tough characteristics, it could temporarily entangle and block a Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal.

And the wealth required to cultivate Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass was equivalent to the net worth of an ordinary Pinnacle Stage King-Level Immortal, and even spending that much wealth didn't guarantee success.

This made King Mistflare feel very unbalanced in her heart; her treatment compared to 'King Verdant End' was simply a world apart.

"King Mistflare, even if I have Five Hundred Vine Star-Eating Grass, didn't I still fail to keep you?"

The dark green streak of light that was Ender was behind, "You're quite decisive, directly burning Immortal Energy to flee."

"King Verdant End!"

King Overbearing Autumn's voice rang out, and a terrifying Immortal Energy fluctuation blasted towards Ender, who had just arrived, while he also sent a voice transmission: "King Mistflare, you go into the treasure vault first and seize the treasures!"
