Divine Brilliance
chapter-1149

“Let me take a look!”

Lin Xuanxuan snatched the Imperial Destruction True Scripture and then took in a cold breath.

“It actually is a Dao mark…”

A mark of the Dao, instantiating the Dao into the world. Apart from being a naturally formed treasure, only True Realm experts could do that.

Imperial Destruction True Scripture was obviously a crafted item, so naturally, it could only be done by someone of the True Realm.

In this world, things with Dao marks were either half a step Heaven Opening or Heaven Opening God Treasures.

Lin Xuanxuan took a close look and then shook her head, “Don’t be too happy. This item might have a defensive ability and also spacetime powers, but when you use it, who knows what will happen. It consumes a huge amount of energy and even I can only use it for 10 hours.”

Zong Shou was stunned as he took back the scripture, having a closer look at it.

If Lin Xuanxuan could only use it for 10 hours, then he would probably be able to use it for only two hours. Along with the regenerative abilities of pills, he would only be able to extend that time by a little.

However, although Lin Xuanxuan said that, in the end, he had obtained a defensive treasure. Moreover, it was Absolute Defence that no one could break. Zong Shou was filled with joy.

It wasn’t the page that he was anticipating but the outcome didn’t disappoint him too much either.

This page was known as the Imperial Tribulation Facing Records and that was the reason why Shen Yuexuan judged it to be a defensive item.

This was a God Item and Zong Shou could use it at any moment. He didn’t place it into his space and instead kept it in his sleeves to activate at any moment.

With the records in the hand, there was actually nothing much left in the treasury that attracted Zong Shou’s attention.

The only thing he cared about were those Dragon Corpses and the God Beast Golden Pellets.

The Dragon Corpse Canine Tooth could be used to craft Dragon Tooth Swords and the Golden Pellets could be merged into his Three Thousand Stars.

This treasury had all sorts of treasures except for mind stones and celestial stones.

This was because it was impossible for such items to have flaws.

He split everything into six parts. This time, Zong Shou took the largest share once more.

He personally found the treasury and he did the most to sneak into the palace. Naturally, he had the right to take 40% of the rewards.

Shen Yuexuan and Yuan Wushang only got 15% in total but they were still happy.

The two of them were factionless cultivators and didn’t need so many things. Such gains were already more than enough for them.

“If there is a Fourth Treasury, then naturally there is a first, second, and third…”

Yuan Wushang’s eyes lit up, filled with a craving expression, “Doesn’t the Minor Treasurer have five ministries and three supervisors under it? They should have treasuries in the palace too!”

Zong Shou burst out laughing, however, he was filled with anticipation. He just needed to get one treasury and it would be more than enough.

It could even compare to the yearly income of Great Gan and those 76 worlds, able to support the Great Gan army for several years!

There were many magical items that were already extinct in this world.

To say that he wasn’t greedy for them was a lie.

His face was still really calm. He shook his head like he didn’t care, “How can they be so easy to take? Those treasuries are definitely protected. Outside of the formation, there would be corpse generals. This Fourth Treasury should just be an exception.”

Just as he said this, many streaks of light surged in and fell into the hall.

Looking at the empty room, the person was stunned.

Then, the guy looked at Zong Shou and the others, laughing bitterly, “So, it is Your Majesty and Fanmeng Cultivator! It seems like I am not fated with this treasury. I’ve come too late…”

When Zong Shou saw this, he felt really fortunate. Thankfully, he had gotten over in time. If he was a little later, he would have already swept all the items.

Not only would he have not gotten the page, but the Royal Demon God Shuttle wouldn’t have been repaired either.

At this moment, there were still many remaining items that weren’t split.

They were all missing pages and fragments of treasures. Shen Yuexuan and the others didn’t care but Zong Shou kept them all.

In the future, maybe he might be able to piece together an End Treasure like that of the Royal Demon God Shuttle.

He totally swept clear the treasury, leaving nothing there. Only then did he smile and speak, “Cultivator seems injured. Have you gotten that legacy artifact?”

“Naturally, I returned in defeat! Xufu is really amazing, he is really skilled. Even if he have to help Qin Emperor revive, the amount of strength he could free up could suppress everyone in the tomb. Moreover, he was also in front of the 12 Copper Men!”

Mingri Xuan shook his head and said expressionlessly, “I didn’t have much hope and was just trying to probe. Luckily, I was able to escape. However, who knew what secret technique was used in front of the Qin Emperor. If he awakens, there will be one more End Realm. He won’t die and he won’t be wiped out! When I headed in I nearly died there because of him.”

He wanted to say he wouldn’t die, but then he stopped. Even if he woke up, that Qin Emperor was actually a dead person.

However, as his soul was resting on the Dao, he wouldn’t be wiped out. As such, he corrected his words.

“So, that is the case!”

Zong Shou understood. The feeling before was definitely real. To the Qin Emperor, death wasn’t the end but just the beginning.

He smiled and asked, “Cultivator knows this palace well. You probably know where the other treasuries are, right?”

The map that Zhongxuan had was of the outer area. As for the specific structure and layout, it wasn’t that clear.

At this point, that map was already pretty much useless.

Mingri Xuan was stunned and then said helplessly, “Your Majesty, don’t joke with me! If that Qin Emperor revives, none of us can think about leaving. Although Xufu has selfish reasons and is willing to give us a chance, if we don’t stop him, then even he will be helpless. Time is of the essence, so how would I bother to search for the treasury?”

Zong Shou couldn’t help but curse out, so what was he doing here now?

His face turned serious, “You have been to the main hall, so you have probably gotten what you wanted? Is there anything you can tell me?”

“Indeed, I have some ideas! I was really fortunate, that Xufu also purposely leaked weaknesses to me.”

Mingri Xuan nodded his head and said leisurely, “The second core that Xi Zi left not only caused some weakness in the Dragon Formation, but it also made it tougher for the Qin Emperor to wake up. I think that for him to rest, firstly we can kill the Great Shang Emperor Yinyu or shift him away, such that the emperor isn’t able to grab the Dragon Energy. One method is to break the revival artifact. Next, break his soul when he is at his weakest just after he revives. However, no matter which method, it isn’t something that a few people could achieve. We have to work together.”

Lin Xuanxuan could infer the hidden meaning from Mingri Xuan’s words. He was in deep thought as he said, “So, Xufu must be hoping for the final possibility. If we want to stop Qin Emperor from reviving, then Xufu will also go all out to stop us?”

“That’s right!”

Mingri Xuan was really calm and his tone didn’t fluctuate, “That will depend on the decision that all of you make.”

Once Qin Emperor revived, then Xufu might join hands with all of them. This person was at the End Realm and once his restrictions were removed, then his strength would only be above that of the Qin Emperor.

However, at that time, the 12 Copper Men would have their Master. Whether or not Xufu would be able to maintain his complete End Realm strength was also another problem.

Whether or not his body and soul would be restricted once more was also an unknown factor!

The dangers that this decision held was far more than the previous two.

Zong Shou smiled, “Yinyu plays a huge role in the revival of the Qin Emperor and he is just in front of the hall. Be it to kill him or save him, either points are not possible. We actually don’t have any other choice and we can only destroy those nine Revival Artifacts, right?”

Mingri Xuan nodded his head, “That’s right! As long as we destroy four of the nine, the Qin Emperor won’t be able to revive unless he finds the same grade artifacts. If we destroy two, even if he wakes up, his strength won’t recover in a short time. Mingri Xuan is really weak and only by working with everyone will he be able to succeed. Your Majesty is the person I trust the most. If you have orders, I will go all out and follow you…”

From his words and demeanor, it seemed like he would do whatever that Zong Shou said.

Zong Shou rubbed his temples. He was really tempted but he didn’t agree to it right away.

He had not been over to the main hall and he was uncertain whether or not the three methods that Mingri Xuan suggested were the only three.

However, if that was really the case, then he owed Mingri Xuan a lot and would do what he wished.

Mingri Xuan was strong and on the same level as Lin Xuanxuan.

One of them was comparable to four to five Saint Realm experts. With this person helping, Zong Shou had more confidence.

“However, the few of us are far from enough. The most important thing now is to contact Sword Sect and Shiyue…”

Just as Zong Shou said this, he felt something. With a flash, he exited the hall.

Dozens of miles away, a giant cloud of smoke billowed, and vast energy swept all around.

“This is God Emperor Fist? Shiyue?”

Zong Shou’s eyes squinted. From the energy wave fluctuations, he recognized that this was the secret technique that he used.

“He was calling him out? What decisiveness!”

He was thinking about how to contact Shiyue before that person made such a huge commotion. He didn’t care about being attacked by the corpse army. The reason was obvious…

As expected, they thought about the same thing. Great minds think alike…
