A ic treasure that had a quintessence core within it?

Right Violetjewel had a quintessence core within it as well Its physical body had suffered incredible dae but the quintessence core inside of it was completely unharmed

“Don’t you want to leave?” Ji Ning asked

“Of course I do I’lanced sideways at Ning

“Aside fro a lifeblood oath, is there truly no other way of taking you away?” Ning asked “If you can tell me a way, I’ll definitely do my best to carry it out”

“Well, there is” The black-robed child nodded

“There is? What?” Ning’s eyes lit up

“Become a Daolord first,” the black-robed child said

Ning instantly felt speechless The only Daolord in the Badlands Territory which Ning are of was Daolord Badlands There ardless of how many were present, their level of poas a level far beyond Ning’s If Ning truly did become a Daolord in the future, it wouldn’t be hard for him to acquire treasures such as this Didn’t Daolord Windsource himself parcel out such treasures to his World God servants?

One could iine how fabulously wealthy Daolords were!

“Howasked curiously

“Kid, you aren’t even a World God yet” The black-robed child shook his head, then said in a s manner, “Let me broaden your horizons a bit, then”

“Right, right” Ning’s eyes lit up

“Daolord Windsource had a rather weird disposition, but he truly was an incredible figure He roved through the endless prih many of its territories He directly enslaved over five hundred World-level experts, withhih “In fact, he even had a Daolord as his retainer”

“What?!” Ning was shocked

“Incredible, right?” The black-robed child said sly, “When Daolord Windsource descended upon this territory, the owner of this territory careat ceremony and courtesy”

“But alas…I heard that Daolord Windsource failed in his atte, he exiled his eldest disciple, the one who had become a Daolord, as well as some other disciples and retainers He then led all of his slaves and the rest of his World-level retainers to this place”

“According to what Daolord Windsource said, this was his ancient hoh the outside the world If he was to die, he wished to die at home”

“However, his ancestral chaosworld had vanished long ago Thus, Daolord Windsource established the Windsource Chaosworld in the same location where his ancient chaosworld had been He then established the Windsource Ruins Supposedly, he did all this to show off all the insights into the Dao he had gained during his life After leaving his Dao behind…he died” The black-robed child pointed towards the seated old man “Look That’s one of the poor bastards who served him and was forced to join him in death”

“More than five hundred World-level experts joined hi was speechless

“Right” The black-robed child nodded “Daolords, y’know? Daolord Windsource was actually pretty peaceful Soo completely berserk When they die, they willso far as to slaughter every living being they can find before dying in a sea of corpses”

Ning truly was unable to say anything

Make an entire territory die with thehter until they themselves perished?

Madmen

Thethey would be when gripped by h Daolord Windsource really was fairly calm by comparison

“So you are saying that more than five hundred World-level experts died in these ruins?” Ning sighed in amazement

“A Samsara Daolord, more than five hundred World-level experts, and an enormous number of Elder Gods and Ancestral Immortals all died here,” the black-robed child said “Over the course of countless years, quite a few treasure-seeking cultivators have died here as well, leaving behind many of their own treasures Thus, this place really is like a giant treasure vault The only question is…are you strong enough to loot it?”

“You are actually pretty lucky” The black-robed child let out a sigh “You actually were able to find this place The wind is formless and fickle, and thus the internal structure of Daolord Windsource’s estate is also ever-changing Since you were able to find this place, you now have a chance of being able to escape”

“A chance of being able to escape?” Ning was surprised and delighted

“Right There’s a pavilion over there Once you go inside of it, it’ll teleport you to the outer regions The outer regions are much safer than this place,” the black-robed child said “Alright, that’s all Hurry up and beat it You were lucky enough to find this estate this time, but you probably won’t be so lucky next time”

After speaking, the black-robed youth flew back into the nine-level paGoda

Ning once olden-robed old man as seated in the lotus position within the house He couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh This old man was a peak World God; most likely, he was on par with even the likes of World God Northrest or even stronger And yet…his destiny had been to accompany his master unto death!

Daolord Windsource had only driven away some of his disciples and retainers The rest of his retainers, along with his slaves, had all died with him here Apparently, the retainers who had died were the ones he didn’t like The ones he did like, he had exiled along with those disciples, sparing the them die with him
