Chapter 1173: Chapter 1113: Ancient Plate, Golden Lamp, Azure Scroll

“Wrath of the Celestial God?!”

The startled cry of Overlord Hongjue drew the attention of Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi nearby.

Upon seeing the divine whip-like treasure in Hua Tianjue’s hands, both Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi were equally shocked.

From the expressions of these overlords, it was clear that the divine treasure wielded by Hua Tianjue carried an incredible divine might within it!

“Brother Hua, quickly use Wrath of the Celestial God to deal with this green beast!”

“With it, we can all enter the Treasure Cave!”

In his shock, Situ Chen remembered something and shouted excitedly toward Hua Tianjue.

Overlord Hongjue and Yuan Qingzi both looked at Hua Tianjue with equal excitement.

Clearly, everyone believed that with this ’Wrath of the Celestial God’ divine treasure, they could defeat the green beast before them.

However, what Overlord Hongjue, Situ Chen, and Yuan Qingzi didn’t expect was that after activating the ’Wrath of the Celestial God’, Hua Tianjue sneered coldly towards the three remaining people and said, “I’ve said before, retrieving treasures relies on one’s own abilities. If your skills are lacking, don’t greedily covet the treasures of the third Treasure Cave.”

“Daoist Friend Ao Ning has already perished at the hands of this beast. If I help you with treasures, wouldn’t it be unfair to Daoist Friend Ao Ning?”

“Everyone is left to their own fate. I’m going ahead!”

Having said that, Hua Tianjue directly drove the Wrath of the Celestial God towards the green beast.

As soon as Wrath of the Celestial God touched the green beast, it emitted an incredible divine power, forcing the beast to retreat half a step. Seizing this chance, Hua Tianjue moved swiftly and followed Ye Chen, flying into the third Treasure Cave!

At the same time, Hua Tianjue didn’t linger with the Wrath of the Celestial God to hold off the green beast; he did not bring anyone else into the third Treasure Cave.

Even though Overlord Hongjue, Situ Chen, and Yuan Qingzi rushed towards the Treasure Cave, they were still blocked outside by the green beast pouncing back!

At this moment, the last six who reached the front of the green beast included Ye Chen and Hua Tianjue, who had already entered the third Treasure Cave, Ao Ning who had perished, and only Overlord Hongjue, Situ Chen, and Yuan Qingzi, the three Peak Lords, were left blocked outside.

Seeing Ye Chen and Hua Tianjue enter the third Treasure Cave, the remaining three became anxious.

At this moment, Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi showed acute worry, clearly feeling that with their abilities and remaining cards, they were likely unable to surpass the obstruction of the green beast before them.

However, on the other side, Overlord Hongjue did not display anxiety, but rather appeared to have made a resolute decision.

“No more waiting!”

“In the first Treasure Cave, the guarding demon was at Divine Master level, and the lowest tier of treasures was also Divine Master level. In the second Treasure Cave, the guarding demon was elevated to Overlord level, and the lowest tier of treasures also reached Overlord level. Now, in this third Treasure Cave, the guarding demon is a terrifying Cosmic Emperor level, indicating that the treasures inside the third Treasure Cave are likely at least Cosmic Emperor level!”

“Moreover, Star Lord level treasures already appeared in the second Treasure Cave, so they are even more likely to appear in the third one!”

“In this situation, I absolutely cannot fall behind; I must break into the third Treasure Cave!”

“Hua Tianjue even used a trump card like Wrath of the Celestial God, I can no longer hold back, otherwise, I will never enter the third Treasure Cave. It’s time to bring out my most precious treasure!”

Boom!

After a quick mental decision, Overlord Hongjue seemed to have finally made up her mind.

She extended her hand, and suddenly, a palm-sized, snow-white seven-petal lotus divine treasure appeared in her hand.

Once this lotus divine treasure appeared, it spun with a swift gleam, tearing through the entire space. Instantly, Overlord Hongjue vanished from the void, and in the next moment, she bypassed the green beast’s blockade as if traveling through spacetime and entered the third Treasure Cave.

From the moment Overlord Hongjue activated the divine treasure to the moment she entered the Treasure Cave, it was all in the blink of an eye.

However, Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi’s keen eyesight allowed them to clearly see the treasure in Overlord Hongjue’s hand.

“Seven-Leaf Black Lotus, a top-tier spatial treasure, the Seven-Leaf Black Lotus, almost reaching the Star Lord level of divine treasures!”

“Wow, even Hongjue has such an incredible treasure in her possession!”

“Although the Seven-Leaf Black Lotus cannot match Wrath of the Celestial God in attack, its spatial abilities are even more mysterious!”

Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi were incredibly jealous of Hongjue and Hua Tianjue.

The two were filled with endless regret.

Hongjue and Hua Tianjue were already stronger than them, and now, having broken into the third Treasure Cave, they were likely to gain colossal rewards, while the two could not enter the third Treasure Cave at all. This gap might cause them to fall completely behind Hongjue and Hua Tianjue forever, with no chance of catching up.

Of course, this envy and regret lasted only a moment before the two couldn’t afford to think further.

Now, Ye Chen, Hua Tianjue, and Hongjue all successfully gained entry into the Treasure Cave. To the green beast in charge of guarding it, this was an utter disgrace, and it had already reached the peak of its fury.

Its unchecked rage poured out upon Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi.

Instantly, the two were completely engulfed by endless toxic fumes.

…

In the third Treasure Cave.

Whoosh.

As soon as Ye Chen entered the third Treasure Cave, a cluster of Divine Light immediately appeared above his head.

“Hmm?”

Seeing nothing else in the third Treasure Cave except this Divine Light Cluster, Ye Chen was extremely surprised.

“Could it be that the third Treasure Cave has only this one divine treasure?”

“No choices needed, just take the treasure directly?”

Ye Chen tried to communicate with the Divine Light Cluster, only to find that he could not enter it, nor even inspect its contents.

Clearly, it was still not the time to take the treasure!

Boom!

While Ye Chen was continuously probing the Divine Light Cluster, attempting to acquire the treasure, he suddenly heard a loud crash. Following that, Ye Chen saw Hua Tianjue enveloped by a powerful divine power, also rushing into the third Treasure Cave!

Whoosh!

At the instant Hua Tianjue appeared, another cluster of Divine Light emerged over the heads of both Ye Chen and Hua Tianjue.

Hmm?

Ye Chen stared at the newly appeared Hua Tianjue, and then at the newly formed Divine Light Cluster, his heart stirred suddenly.

“Could it be that, with each person who enters, a new treasure appears?”

Ye Chen observed, as Hua Tianjue, who had just entered the Treasure Cave, realized that this third treasure space only contained two treasures, equally surprised.

However, he didn’t attempt to take the treasures, but instead looked at Ye Chen with malicious intent.

Murderous intent surged in his eyes.

Clearly, he had the desire to kill Ye Chen and closely examine what secrets Ye Chen might be hiding.

Hua Tianjue was truly eager to find out why Ye Chen, this humble Immortal Divine Venerable, possessed so many treasures!

As Hua Tianjue’s gaze turned hostile, Ye Chen’s eyes cooled.

“What? Does Fellow Hua wish to make a move against me?”

Ye Chen showed no fear of Hua Tianjue, not even bothering to address him as a senior, instead confronting Hua Tianjue directly, utterly fearless.

Evidently, if Hua Tianjue intended to strike, Ye Chen wouldn’t hesitate to test him too!

Ye Chen’s icy demeanor made Hua Tianjue’s gaze contract suddenly, and then he looked at Ye Chen more deeply.

Hua Tianjue could see that Ye Chen showed no fear, and it was not a façade, which meant Ye Chen definitely had a more formidable ace up his sleeve, hence he was not afraid.

This made Hua Tianjue immediately quell his murderous intent and weigh his options.

As the two faced off coldly.

Buzz.

Suddenly, the void shook.

Another figure burst in through the entrance of the third Treasure Cave.

Overlord Hongjue!

This was, shockingly, the figure of Overlord Hongjue, who had relied on the Seven-Leaf Black Lotus to enter the Treasure Cave.

Overlord Hongjue saw Ye Chen and Hua Tianjue face off coldly and was momentarily taken aback, then noticed that upon her entrance, a third Divine Light Cluster appeared in the air with a “whoosh,” where there had only been two.

It seemed indeed that the treasures within this third Treasure Cave appeared based on the number of people!

One person resulted in one treasure appearing.

Now with three people, three treasures directly appeared!

When all three treasures appeared, the scene quickly grew silent again.

Hua Tianjue, Overlord Hongjue, and Ye Chen faced each other, puzzled as to how to acquire the treasures in this third Treasure Cave, bewildered as to why this cave lacked the prompt sounds for treasure taking unlike the previous two caves.

The silence lingered a moment.

Finally, it was Overlord Hongjue who broke the silence.

She glanced at Hua Tianjue and Ye Chen, seemingly realizing something, and chuckled, addressing them, “I underestimated Fellow Hua’s preparations, and also underestimated this young friend Ye Chen’s dread.”

“However, none of that matters now.”

“Since we’ve all entered this third Treasure Cave, based on the stone slab hints earlier, within this third cave, each of us has only one chance to take a treasure. So, we need not fight internally anymore; let’s conserve our energy for treasure acquisition and getting through the higher heavens!”

“Dear friends, what do you think of my suggestion?”

Overlord Hongjue surprisingly decided to mediate the tense standoff between Ye Chen and Hua Tianjue.

Overlord Hongjue’s words made Hua Tianjue’s gaze flicker, then Hua Tianjue snorted coldly, “Since everyone made it here, it proves we have abilities. With abilities, of course, comes the right to take treasures.”

“Fellow Ye Chen, you needn’t worry about my confronting you; let’s use our skills to acquire treasures instead.”

Hua Tianjue’s words caused Ye Chen to smile; though Ye Chen didn’t believe Hua Tianjue at all, he responded, “Let’s all take our treasures then.”

With three individuals, the atmosphere within the Treasure Cave surprisingly calmed down.

At this moment, Hua Tianjue and Overlord Hongjue acted similarly to how Ye Chen had earlier, attempting to communicate with the three Divine Light Clusters above to acquire treasures, but no matter how they tried, they couldn’t obtain anything.

As the two and Ye Chen were beginning to understand this third Treasure Cave less and less, suddenly, the prompt for treasure acquisition finally sounded within the cave.

“It seems nobody can enter the third Treasure Cave anymore.”

“Meaning only three people have the chance to take treasures.”

From the sound’s implication, the remaining Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi outside stood no chance of entering the third Treasure Cave, either dead or meeting some grim fate!

Hua Tianjue and Overlord Hongjue obviously gathered this information from the sound, their expressions shifting before turning indifferent.

Evidently, more than the safety of Situ Chen and Yuan Qingzi, the two cared about what the sound would say next about acquiring treasures in the third Treasure Cave!

Ye Chen heard this sound, and his heart grew exceedingly complex.

Nevertheless, Ye Chen had to suppress extraneous thoughts.

Because the sound continued, “Three individuals have the right to acquire treasures, so only three treasures will randomly appear in the third Treasure Cave.”

“Each of you can select only one treasure!”

“Now, the prohibition is lifted; you may choose your treasures!”

Boom! Boom! Boom!

As this sound faded, the three Divine Light Clusters in the void suddenly split open.

Revealing within them three dazzling treasures.

Ye Chen, Hua Tianjue, and Overlord Hongjue looked skyward, sighting three treasures appearing in the void: a round ancient plate suitable for sitting, a golden lamp, and a closed scroll emitting a green light.
