Chapter 660 Chaos

Chapter 660 Chaos　　Alex stood in a corner of the crowd, quietly watching the elites in front of them hammer away at the house.

Some of the elites turned around to look at them and showed a dissatisfied expressions.

"While we slave away here trying to weaken the barrier, they are simply waiting to get a part of the prize," He Liwei said with a frowned expression on his face.

"Why don't you invite them all to hit it then? That should solve your problem right?" a low, ghastly voice escaped from the thin and emotionless Guo Chaing.

He was the disciple from the Broken River sect that had decided to leave once he learned that attacking the door wasn't worth it.

However, after learning about Tian Ye's assessment on the matter, he seemed to have returned to get some sort of prize for himself as well.

"That's… not a bad idea," Zhou Ren said from the side, making Guo Chiang make a 'tsk' sound. Zhou Ren heard it, but he didn't comment on it.

"Stop talking and continue attacking!" Liang Qiu shouted at them, leading the three to go back to attacking.

The only ones who stayed to the side without attacking were the prince and the green-robed Lu Yan that Alex recognized.

The attacks continued for a while longer. However, with each attack, Alex could see the barrier flickering more and more unstably. 

'It's any time now,' he thought and slowly stepped back from the crowd until he was behind a tree and couldn't be seen by anyone. 

Then, he concealed his cultivation and went invisible. As far as he could tell, this was the best way to sneak in there and get away with stealing under supervision.

Surely Alex would be seen through the spiritual sense of the 5 or so people that were here, but that was fine. There were simply too many people here for someone to keep track of just him using their spiritual sense.

After all, despite seeing everything at once, it took them quite the mental power to perfectly keep track of everything at once.

Now fully concealed, Alex waited in silence.

The group kept on attacking one after another, and after two hours, the barrier flickered for the last time.

~BANG~ 

One of Han Daiyu's attacks broke a part of the house's wall and everyone looked in shock.

"Go!" someone from the crowd shouted and everyone ran forward.

Not even the elites dared to stop nearly 800 people trying to enter the house. All they could do was get in first and get what they could.

Alex was in the middle group when he walked through the door. He sensed multiple spiritual senses all around him that were slowly moving further and further away.

They were too bothered with finding treasures, so Alex was fine for now. 

Books, artifacts, weapons, furniture, paintings, jewelry, metal works. The group of people that entered didn't leave a single thing behind at all.

Some even started fighting in the crowd, trying to steal each other's treasures.

Alex frowned. The scene was too chaotic and the House of the Undying was way too large for him to go around leisurely searching.

So, in an act of desperation, he opened up his spiritual sense and sent it out in every direction.

He could see the people already reaching the far corners of the house that was nearly 300 meters wide.

At the same time, Alex saw something that surprised him.

'There is an underground,' he realized. Before his spiritual sense brought attention to him, he took it back and directly teleported to the lower floor.

Alex appeared half a foot above the ground and lightly tapped on the wooden floor underneath. He could already hear people coming down, so he had to hurry.

Alex rushed towards one of the rooms to the right and saw vials lined up on a shelf. He immediately walked in and emptied the shelf.

Then, he walked out and went to another room. Even as he did, Alex could sense someone's spiritual sense upon him.

'Dammit, I'm isolated, so I'm easy to find,' he thought. He sent out his own spiritual sense, not worrying about getting caught for now, and checked the room ahead of him.

There were weapons in that room, but Alex didn't need one at the moment. 'Should I still take it?' he thought. 

However, just then, he noticed another floor below him. "Let's go," he thought and teleported down to that floor.

The person that had followed him frowned when they saw that he had gone downstairs, but stayed behind to get the weapons while still keeping tabs on Alex.

Alex had already sensed the person by now and saw that it was a woman in the True Lord 9th realm cultivation base.

It would be a little hard if he were to fight her, but he could certainly escape from her. The thing that worried him more than her cultivation base was the robe she was wearing.

A crimson red robe that was hard to stare at. That girl was from the Fu family.

'Fu Tao is at the 8th True King realm. While I may be friendly to him, I can't tell if he will suddenly ask me to give him all of my belongings,' Alex thought.

So, quickly, he went around the underground, looking for anything he could find. 

From what he could sense, this was the last floor, and beneath him was just dirt. He could also sense that most of the room was empty, aside from one.

At the same time, Alex heard a lot of footsteps coming down the stairs again. He needed to hurry.

He dashed towards the door and slammed through it instead of opening it. Then, he grabbed the single thing that was in this room, a storage bag, and turned to walk out not before looking at the horrifyingly black floor.

If his guess was not wrong, then all the black down there, was blood. 'How many demons and beasts had to be killed here for there to be such a carpet-like layer of blood,' he thought with horror on his face.

However, he couldn't think for long with the people coming. So, he immediately teleported to the upper floor.

When he did, a spiritual sense landed on him from not far away from him. As such, he got face to face with the lady in crimson who looked at him with gleaming eyes like a predator that had found its prey.

She ran towards him but Alex teleported again, going one floor higher. 

"I see you, boy," a voice drifted into his head from the lady down below.

'Dammit!' Alex thought. He really wanted to find some more treasures but from the look of it, most of them had already been taken away by others.

Alex gave one last look with his spiritual sense and ran before another one of the spiritual sense users could find him.

"Shit! That's why I didn't want to use my spiritual sense," he thought as he ran down the mountain. "No, it wasn't the spiritual sense that got me caught. It was the teleporting ahead of everyone."

Isolating himself from the group of people had really been a bad choice, but that was what had allowed him to raid that room with a lot of vials.

Alex took out the vials and opened them to see what was inside. At first, he saw some sort of gooey substance inside and wondered if the pills that were supposed to be inside had already melted.

However, he then remembered that the demons didn't know how to make pills. 

"Oh, that means these are medicinal pastes," he thought. When he checked through the many vials, he saw that there were maybe only 5 different pastes together.

'Well, that's not bad, I guess,' he thought as he walked through the forest towards the 6th mountain.

He wasn't planning to go to the 6th mountain, but rather stay away from the woman as far as he could for now. 

Since it was already the 7th day's afternoon, there were only 3 more days to stay in this place. After that, he would be in the protection of Shen Jing, and he would be fine.

After coming relatively far away, Alex sat on top of a tree and took out the storage bag to see what was inside.

He slowly sent his spiritual sense inside and couldn't help but be both shocked and confused at what he saw.
