Chapter 239 - The Treasury (II) (1/2)

Dragons love fortune the most. What are in the Treasury of the Dragon King, who is in charge of Dongting Lake?

They pa.s.s through the shadow door cast by the strange tree, which is like a small transmission circle. Because Rong Dong and Li Anping are ordinary people, who are not as strong as cultivators, they feel that their bodies are slightly torn. Whereas, Xin Yuanping and An don’t feel uncomfortable at all.

Such a short distance transmission circle is perfect for cultivators. The world of cultivation has long abandoned such circles that need “spirit stones” to operate. Come on, they even don’t have enough Reiki to cultivate, how can they have spare energy for such a luxury thing. Besides, people on the earth have s.h.i.+fted their focus from cultivation to technology. There is no place that can’t be reached in a day by plane, no matter how far it is! Cultivators may lack boluses, magic weapons or spirit stones, but they never lack money.

But obviously, the transmission door doesn’t send them somewhere in the Dragon Palace. More specifically, Xin Yuanping and An instantly recognize that it is not a simple warehouse!

It is more like the Dragon Palace, which is openly located at the bottom of Dongting Lake, but hasn’t been detected so far, no matter how advanced the technology is.

Not only because the Dragon Palace itself can avoid technological detect, but also because this place is another large-scale s.p.a.ce. How can it be detected with the current technology?

This is also true of the Treasury in front of them. It may be connected with the Dragon Palace, or maybe another separate s.p.a.ce outside the Dragon Palace.

Because what appears in front of them is not a cold warehouse, but an open s.p.a.ce with many courtyards!

Long ago, there stored treasures acc.u.mulated by the dragons generation after generation in the richly ornamented yards. But now in the first hall, the inscribed board is shaking and the door frame is about to collapse. Seeing that, Xin Yuanping looks unhappy.

“Look at the board. Does it say the Treasury?” Xin Yuanping turns her head and asks Rong Donglin coldly.

“Jiuhua Palace.” Of course, the inscribed board can’t say “the Treasury” so openly. The taste of the Dragon King of Dongting Lake can’t be so bad.

But when Rong Donglin reads the characters, he can’t help being excited. According to the information on the bamboo sheets that they sorted out, the Dragon King’s treasury includes nine halls. Every hall has treasures of different levels. The “Soul Wood” that Lin Luoran looked for is invaluable to cultivators, which is only heard about, but n.o.body has ever seen it with their own eyes. Such precious “Soul Wood” is only placed in the seventh hall. Thus, it can be seen how rich the dragons are.

Xin Yuanping is slightly relaxed, saying, “That’s it.”

It is indeed the right place, but Xin Yuanping is not sure how many treasures are left when she sees the shabby courtyards.

Rong Donglin is not greedy. He only hopes that when the Dragon King moved, it abandoned the heavy wood, so that he can get some residue in the seventh hall.

They walk carefully through the path in front of Jiuhua Palace for fear of any trap that the Dragon King set up to punish those who covet its treasures. Fortunately, there is nothing unusual on the way to the door.

The steps are covered with dust, which symbolizes that the Treasury is in ruins. Xin Yuanping orders Li Anping, the most worthless person there, to open the old door of the palace. When the door opens, they all find the golden light from the palace very dazzling.

It is an empty inner hall. There are thick pillars as an adult can barely able to surround it by arms; windows and top beams carved with flowers and dragons; chair and tables painted gold. All these make the hall look splendid. Not taking its extremely large area into consideration, it resembles the flower hall of the rich people in ancient times.

The exterior and interior of the palace are totally different!

More incredibly, there are small, exquisite objects wrapped in transparent mist-like gas floating in the air. They are floating and rotating respectively, pa.s.sing by these people at high or low speed. How dreamlike.

What are these?!

What pa.s.ses Xin Yuanping is a simple and delicate hairpin wrapped in the transparent mist. It is in the color of bright blue, which is rare for ancient jewelry. The hairpin looks so beautiful that even a devil like Xin Yuanping can’t resist it—she hasn’t found something or somebody beautiful for many years, except Lin Luoran, who is not the most beautiful, but has a unique temperament. That’s why Xin Yuanping wants to destroy her.

But this time, while Xin Yuanping is amazed by the hairpin, she wants to get it.
