A black battle blade flew out!
"Hahaha! The treasure is in my hands!"
Venerable Flame Star laughed wildly.
"With this treasure, my strength will surely reach a new level!"
The Shadow Annihilation Venerable watched helplessly as his two supreme treasures were taken away, and he was furious: "You!!"
His golden vertical pupils blazed with ferocity, and the laws surrounding his body surged like a boiling sea: "The grudge of today will be remembered by my demon race!"
Venerable Fengling watched all this with indifference and did not intervene.
He had just acquired a supreme treasure, and the strongest of the three, so he didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble. Besides, the enmity between the demon race, the insect race, and the Ancestral God Cult wasn't necessarily a bad thing for the human race, and the various races wouldn't really become enemies over such a small matter.
The relationship between the parties was already not very good.
Xingchen emerged from the palace's treasures, his Dark Universe Wings fluttering gently. A hint of amusement flashed in his eyes: "Interesting. Of the three supreme treasures, the human race, the insect race, and the Ancestral God Cult each obtained one, while the demon race returned empty-handed."
The Azure Nether Venerable said in a low voice, "Master, I'm afraid Shadow Annihilation won't let this go so easily."
Xingchen nodded slightly: "That's right. Given his personality, he will definitely retaliate. Zihun has really offended the demon race this time."
Sure enough, Venerable Shadow Annihilation suddenly turned around, his golden vertical pupils fixed on Venerable Wind Spirit: "Wind Spirit! Let's join forces and stop Purple Soul! The treasure is yours, I only want that woman's life!"
Venerable Fengling frowned slightly, but before he could answer, Venerable Yanxing sneered, "Shadow Annihilation, do you think Venerable Fengling is a three-year-old child?"
The Shadow Annihilation Venerable was also furious.
The situation became clear in an instant—
The human race maintains a neutral stance.
The Ancestral God Cult and the Zerg are forming an alliance, after all, they have already obtained the supreme treasure;
The demon race was isolated and helpless, burning with rage but unable to do anything about it.
Shadow Annihilation Venerable's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty, but he finally gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Fine! Very well! I, Shadow Annihilation, will repay this humiliation a hundredfold!"
He turned and transformed into a streak of black light, sweeping away several precious treasures, and then tore through space with the two heavily injured Golden Scale Venerables as they departed.
An eerie silence fell over the treasure vault.
Venerable Fengling sheathed his spear and said calmly, "Now that the treasure has found its owner, we should also depart."
Venerable Yanxing nodded slightly: "Until we meet again."
After saying this, the members of the Ancestral God Sect also left one after another.
Xingchen looked at the devastated treasure vault and smiled slightly: "The show's over, it's time for us to get down to business."
Once the last spatial fluctuation dissipated and it was confirmed that all the Venerables had left, Xingchen's eyes gleamed with a sharp light.
"Qingming, be on alert of the surroundings."
"Yes!"
The Azure Nether Venerable drew his longsword and flashed to the entrance of the treasure vault, fully activating his divine sense to guard against any possible spying.
Xingchen took a deep breath, raised his right hand slightly, and attempted to use the World Ring to collect the entire treasure vault.
"Certainly not."
When the spatial power of the world ring came into contact with the walls of the treasure vault, it was completely absorbed by the ancient runes as if it had vanished into thin air. The level of this treasure vault clearly far exceeded the carrying capacity of an ordinary world ring.
"In that case!"
Xingchen's lips curled slightly, and the divine power within his body began to surge. He slowly spread his hands.
"open!"
With a low shout, a miniature black hole-like vortex suddenly appeared on his chest.
The vortex was initially only the size of a fist, but it expanded to a diameter of a kilometer in an instant!
"Rumble--"
The entire treasure vault began to tremble violently, and the secret runes on the walls flickered wildly, seemingly resisting this devouring force.
Chapter 127 Reclaiming the Treasure Vault
"Collect it from me!"
He roared, and the vortex suddenly expanded ten thousand times, like a giant maw that swallowed the sky, engulfing the entire treasure vault!
It quickly swallowed the entire treasure trove into its miniature universe!
Xingchen let out a long sigh, feeling the golden treasure trove quietly floating in the miniature universe within his body, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.
"This harvest is surprisingly good."
A slight smile played on his lips as he pondered: thirty-six high-level Venerable puppets, an ancient treasure trove comparable to a top-tier treasure, plus the other gains from the secret realm—even without vying for those three supreme treasures, this harvest was already quite substantial.
"Master, what do we do next?"
"Venerable Qingming asked in a low voice."
"Get out of here first."
Starry Sky's gaze swept across the surroundings, and the Wings of Dark Universe fluttered gently.
"That woman Zi Hun is cunning, and Ying Mie has suffered a great loss. It's hard to guarantee that she won't launch a surprise attack."
He raised his hand and waved it, and a crack immediately appeared in the space.
"go!"
The two figures instantly disappeared into the spatial rift, vanishing into this devastated secret realm.
In the void, only broken space and residual energy fluctuations remain.
……
After a while.
Two streaks of light tore through the air currents at the edge of the star vortex, and Xingchen and Venerable Qingming stepped out from this star vortex.
In this new Star Vortex Secret Realm before us, countless fragments of shattered land floated and sank in the energy tides, and in the distance, several spatial rifts, like ferocious wounds, were spewing out destructive spatial turbulence.
"Master, this Star Vortex seems to have been somewhat damaged."
The Azure Nether Venerable casually waved his finger, and the cold light flowing from his fingertip froze all the nearby spatial fragments.
Starry Sky's gaze swept over the distorted spatial folds, and the Wings of Dark Universe trembled slightly: "Let's find a stable space first."
He raised his hand and pressed down, and a fragment of a continent a hundred miles ahead suddenly solidified.
In a flash, the two figures stood on the temporarily stabilized land. Xingchen lightly swiped his fingertips, and nine silver-white chains emerged from the void, intertwining to form a hemispherical barrier that enveloped the entire land.
While the two were still training in this secret realm.
Within the miniature universe, the golden treasury and thirty-six puppets hovered above him. Every rune on the surface of this ancient building, which flowed with a dark gold hue, was now clearly visible to him.
The thirty-six dark gold puppets are arranged in a ring, and the core runes on their chests echo the patterns on the base of the treasure vault, just like the connection between stars and star orbits.
When his talent for analyzing miniature universes was pushed to its limit, those originally static runes came to life in his vision, transforming into swimming golden dragons.
"I see."
An avatar emerged from the starry river.
He reached out and pressed his hand against the center of a puppet's forehead, his fingertips emitting a dark golden light that shared the same origin as the puppet.
The puppet suddenly trembled violently, and the layers of armor on its chest opened, revealing an internal structure of intricate and breathtaking patterns. Hundreds of millions of tiny patterns were arranged and combined like a cosmic star map, undergoing profound evolution every moment.
"It's not just simple puppet manipulation."
The stars spoke softly.
"These secret patterns are simulating the workings of the universe!"
This is why these puppets, despite their mechanical bodies, unleash Venerable-level combat power.
As the analysis deepened, an even more astonishing discovery excited him even more. When he unfolded the secret runes of the thirty-six puppets in his consciousness space, these runes automatically pieced together a complete three-dimensional star map. And the master control runes hidden on the surface of the treasure vault were the core hub of this star map!
"Exquisite!"
Xingchen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Xingchen flew up and hovered above the golden treasury. With his hands outstretched, tens of thousands of silver threads of light spread out from his fingertips, wrapping around each dark gold puppet as if they were alive.
These light filaments precisely pierced the nodes of the puppet's core runes, completely mapping the trajectory of internal energy flow onto the consciousness space.
"Crack--"
As the analysis deepened, he also discovered the most severely damaged part of the treasure vault.
Xingchen frowned slightly, noticing that the key runes connecting the thirty-six puppets had suffered severe breaks.
The three most severe injuries were the marks left by the devastating attack from Venerable Purple Soul earlier.
"pity……"
He sighed softly, his fingertip tracing a charred crack on the base of the vault.
This crack ran through 196 layers of complex runes, forcibly severing the originally perfect energy circulation network.
The three-dimensional star map in the consciousness space immediately dimmed by more than half, and the originally smooth-moving star trajectories became fragmented.
"An attack approaching the level of a top-tier cosmic overlord is indeed beyond what this treasure vault can fully withstand."
Xingchen withdrew his hand, and information poured from his eyes like a waterfall.
The analytical talent of the miniature universe was operating at full capacity, breaking down every piece of damage. Soon, a complete damage assessment appeared in his mind: the main structure was relatively damaged, but the core runes were destroyed by more than 51.3%.
Most fatally, the thirty-six nodes at the bottom of the treasure vault that connected to the puppets, which were the locations where they had previously launched a joint attack, are now almost completely destroyed.
This means that even if the combined form is forcibly activated, it can only unleash the power of a peak High-Level Venerable at most, and is still one crucial step away from the level of a true cosmic overlord.
"pity."
Xingchen gently stroked the mottled scars on the surface of the treasure vault, and suddenly chuckled: "However, it's not necessarily a bad thing."
His eyes flashed with a sharp light, and his hands suddenly formed a mysterious hand seal.
The entire miniature universe trembled, and the power of countless stars converged upon it.
