Chapter 269: The Secret of the Cyan Lotus Treasury
Tonight, many in the academy were destined for sleepless nights. The aerial clash between two top young geniuses had stunned many. The continuous unveiling of trump cards made it hard to believe they were both Profound Realm cultivators who hadn’t reached the Spirit God Realm. But the facts were before their eyes, leaving no room for disbelief.
“Ah, that dragon-form expert was finally scared. I could feel that his final strength must have been on par with Spirit God Realm, but he still lost in the end.”
“There’s nothing to regret. That Bird Clan person must be the recently famous Tianxian. He’s already defeated several human prodigies in a row. I wonder when it will end.”
“What was that mercury-like form at the end? I know that dragon-like person, he’s Fan Longyu who participated in the Prodigy Battle before. With his strength, he couldn’t even scratch his opponent.”
Feng Bulang cleverly guessed the reason these front-row figures had called for him.
“You kid, your dissatisfaction is written all over your face,” Thunder Lord shook his head.
“I know what you want to ask, but talking about that place inevitably brings up my painful memories,” Feng Bulang said with a bitter smile.
“We’re not asking for nothing. Don’t look so impatient,” Pill Taoist took out a first-grade pill and handed it to Feng Bulang.
Feng Bulang opened the medicine and sniffed it, instantly brightening up and changing his previous attitude.
“Ask away. I’ll tell you everything I know,” Feng Bulang seemed to have returned to his previous carefree manner.
“This kid,” Thunder Lord and Wind Lord shook their heads helplessly.
“I don’t think that path was the only correct answer. Out of 33,000 paths, we just happened to choose the right one? You know how small that probability is. Perhaps what Tianxian obtained was just a small prize in the prize pool, with the grand prize still elsewhere.”
“Unfortunately, for some unknown reason, the treasury disappeared in the end. No one could enter it again. That cave simply vanished into thin air, and no one knows why.” Feng Bulang regretted, when he wanted to revisit the treasury, the Cyan Lotus Treasury was no longer there.
“Hm? Disappeared? Could the trial secret realm have grown legs and run away?” Everyone was extremely surprised. If what Feng Bulang said was true, the Cyan Lotus secret realm must truly be of a very high level. But why hadn’t such a figure left any traces in history? Could they really be even more ancient than the Void Nine Emperors?
If Zhanyue were here, he wouldn’t be as regretful as them. He could easily guess that the treasury might have been left by a high-level expert from the Third Era. But right now, Zhanyue wouldn’t know about these things. At this moment, he had already arrived in the depths of the Ink Sea.
“Where’s that Sister Lei Ying? Why didn’t she come?” Baizhi asked curiously.
“She said if she appeared, the thunder bird would definitely not dare to show up. She wants to use us as bait to lure the thunder bird,” Zhanyue explained. He could deduce the strength of that mysterious artifact spirit; at least this thunder bird was very afraid of it.
They had already entered the thunder bird’s territory in the deepest part of the Ink Sea. The thunder bird seemed to have been awakened by the unfamiliar aura. In the sky, dark clouds suddenly gathered, with flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder.
At the same time, a ‘golden star’ rose from the sea.
“Is this thing really a bird?”
Zhanyue’s eyes widened as he saw the enormous creature rising from the Ink Sea. Even the fear disaster beast would probably be like an ant in front of it. The giant thunder bird spread its wings, and Zhanyue couldn’t even see where its feathers ended. “The Heavenly Book world... really has issues.” Seeing the entity of this thing, Zhanyue finally believed the mysterious woman’s words. This thunder bird was not something they could handle.
