Chapter 466: Taking Treasures

Han Li was usually bold, but even after this glance, he still felt his heart and spirit sway, with a strong sense of dizziness.

After enduring the discomfort in his heart and staring for a moment, he still withdrew his gaze without gaining anything.

Although his spiritual sense was powerful, he could not probe such a profound depth.

Then Han Li did not hesitate and walked directly toward the pavilion.

After getting closer to the pavilion, its height and majesty were revealed; it was at least three or four times larger than an ordinary pavilion.

The entrance to the pavilion was a semicircular arch, about two feet high, and a layer of yellow light curtain sealed the arch.

When Han Li reached the front of the door, he sized up the light curtain.

After tilting his head and thinking for a moment, a flash of cyan light appeared on his hand, and a foot-long sword light appeared in his hand.

Han Li tapped lightly with his finger, and the cyan sword light poked lightly at the light curtain.

Ripples swayed, and the sword light easily pierced into it without the slightest obstruction.

This situation made Han Li somewhat surprised, but he immediately retracted the cyan sword light and extended his arm into it as well.

It felt a bit cool, as if wrapped in a mass of liquid.

Han Li did not hesitate and lunged forward, passing through the light curtain and disappearing.

But after passing through the arch, Han Li, standing inside the pavilion, was stunned.

Before his eyes appeared rows of foot-high circular jade platforms; these platforms varied in size, made of white, glistening beautiful jade, and were densely distributed before Han Li.

Light flickered on the stone platforms, and semicircular light shields of various colors covered the tabletops, inside which it seemed there were items present.

Han Li's gaze narrowed slightly, revealing a trace of excitement.

When he saw the three characters "Treasure Light Pavilion," he had already guessed that he had likely struck it lucky; this pavilion most likely contained ancient treasures.

However, the pavilion was empty and deserted now; it seemed that the people who had taken this passage earlier had either already chosen their ancient treasures and been teleported out, or had gone to the second floor.

Thinking of this, Han Li looked closely at these jade platforms and indeed discovered that a few jade platforms did not have that semicircular light shield, but were empty.

As for the stairs leading to the second floor?

Han Li felt puzzled in his heart. After scanning the place four times, he actually didn't find them!

His curiosity greatly aroused, he searched several times again, and his gaze landed on a somewhat special jade platform.

This jade platform was at the back of the first floor of the pavilion, standing alone in one place, extremely flat, with profound and obscure runes carved all around it.

After his gaze turned on it a few times, Han Li judged based on his knowledge of formations that this was a simple teleportation array with a strange appearance.

After staring at it for two glances, he withdrew his gaze and walked slowly along the rows of jade platforms, browsing the ancient treasures on them.

As he looked at them one by one, Han Li's brows furrowed.

"These ancient treasures are a bit too inferior, aren't they?"

After looking at only a few dozen jade platforms, Han Li completely lost interest and stood in place with his arms crossed, muttering to himself, a trace of doubt on his face.

The items on these jade platforms truly lived up to the name "ancient treasure," but each one was either a long spear or a halberd of ancient style.

Although they shone with treasure light of various colors, Han Li was clear that these things were about the same existence as the flying swords and flying knives used by cultivators today in the wild times, and generally would not have any too astonishing divine abilities.

Of course, one couldn't say they were truly useless!

It was just that after possessing a magic treasure like the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords, Han Li naturally couldn't look upon this level of items. He hoped more to obtain ancient treasures with special divine abilities like the flower basket.

Although he thought this way, fearing he might have missed something, Han Li still braced himself and checked all the jade platforms again.

As a result, Han Li sighed and walked toward the teleportation array without hesitation.

He believed the second floor should be somewhat different.

After installing a few spirit stones on the teleportation array, Han Li arrived at a new location amidst a burst of white light.

This was the second floor of the Treasure Light Pavilion?

Han Li narrowed his eyes and stared forward, his lips tightly pursed.

This space was not large; apart from a huge spherical light shield not far in front of him, there was nothing else in the empty surroundings.

And this light shield, about ten feet high, emitted a soft, azure light, floating a foot off the ground in the center of the second floor, extremely eye-catching.

Inside, several dozen ancient treasures of various shapes were floating quietly.

There were scrolls, jade plaques, round bowls, black banners, and other things Han Li knew and some he hadn't recognized; there wasn't a single duplicate.

Seeing this, Han Li was overjoyed, knowing he had come to the right place.

However, these things were just placed here so brazenly; if they were easy to take, they would have long since been scraped clean by the cultivators who came earlier; how would it even be his turn?

Thinking this, Han Li walked slowly toward the spherical light shield with his hands behind his back, then circled it three or four times before stopping.

Opening his mouth, a foot-long cyan sword spat out from Han Li's mouth.

After circling above his head a few times, under the movement of Han Li's divine sense, it suddenly transformed into a cyan ray and pierced straight toward the bottom of the light shield.

With a soft "bang," a bright blue light flashed where the small sword poked the light shield, and the cyan ray was actually bounced back directly, failing to have any effect.

Seeing this scene, Han Li was not angry but happy instead.

The more this was the case, the more it showed that the ancient treasures inside the spherical light shield were extremely precious.

Han Li opened his mouth again with an excited expression, spitting out nine small swords in a row. After a long whistle above Han Li's head, these small swords combined into a huge sword shrouded in cyan light.

"Slash!" Han Li let out a low roar.

The huge sword performed a "force splitting Mount Hua" move, slashing at the light shield without the slightest politeness.

With a "boom," the moment the huge sword touched the shield wall, it broke open a gap several feet long.

Han Li revealed a trace of joy.

But before he could take any further action, a powerful force suddenly came from inside, and the huge sword was bounced away with a "tseng" sound.

And that gap flashed with blue light and returned to its original state.

Han Li was surprised at first, then his expression turned gloomy. He rubbed his chin and stared at the spherical light shield again.

Not long after, Han Li's expression softened, and he smiled slightly.

He pointed at the huge sword, causing it to disassemble amidst a clear whistle, transforming back into nine small swords and flying back into his body.

Then, without hesitation, he reached for his waist and sacrificed a spirit beast bag filled with Gold-Devouring Beetles.

A buzzing sound arose, and a mass of gold-silver insect mist swarmed out from the bag.

Han Li let out a low whistle, and the insect swarm immediately rushed up. In an instant, they crawled all over the bottom of the spherical light shield.

A moment later, this piece of the shield wall was gnawed into a three or four-foot round hole by the swarm right before Han Li's eyes.

The light shield flashed with blue light, and the round hole actually twisted and shrank rapidly, recovering three times faster than the Gold-Devouring Beetles' devouring speed.

Seeing this, Han Li did not dare to be negligent and immediately transformed into a slender cyan ray, flying through the round hole that had not yet closed.

The shield wall also closed back together at this moment.

After the cyan light retracted, Han Li's figure appeared inside the light shield.

Looking at the dozens of ancient treasures exuding an ancient aura not far from him, he was also floating lightly, a trace of excitement appearing on his face.

However, Han Li did not dare to stay here for long and hurriedly wanted to release his divine sense to probe the spiritual energy of these ancient treasures.

But immediately, a trace of bitterness appeared on his face; his divine sense could not leave his body at all in this space.

As such, he could only rely on his intuition and experience to pick one.

After helplessly thinking this, Han Li could only open his eyes wide and look at them one by one.

Strange blade? No, it looks like an offensive ancient treasure at a glance; he didn't covet it.

Token? No, looking at the image of a strange beast attached to it, it should be the same as the scroll he obtained before, used for driving some spirit beast souls.

Small drum? What is this for? He couldn't see any use for it at all; better forget it!

Han Li stared while muttering to himself, excluding the ancient treasures one by one.

In the end, Han Li narrowed it down to three items.

One was a golden oval mirror, one was a set of five five-colored copper rings connected together, and the last was a dark red wide cloak.

Why he chose these three items, Han Li naturally had his own thoughts.

The golden mirror went without saying; in the cultivation world, as long as it was a mirror-type magic treasure, almost all were treasures with miraculous divine abilities and great power.

Han Li naturally didn't want to miss it.

The five five-colored copper rings strung together likely contained the attributes of the five elements; although he didn't know what the divine ability was, the power would certainly not be small.

As for the last cloak...
