Chapter 481: The Struggle for Ancient Treasures

"You dare snatch treasure from this Young Master?" Wu Chou hadn't expected Xuan Gu, who had always been silent, to snatch the treasure from him without a sound, and couldn't help but angrily question him. His face was full of ferocity!

"What a joke, was this treasure refined by your family? If you can snatch it, why can't I?" Xuan Gu looked coldly at Wu Chou and mocked him without any politeness.

As soon as these words were spoken, Wu Chou was enraged by shame.

But he seemed to remember something; although his face was full of malice, he didn't refute it. Instead, he urged his hand technique, and the black giant python tightened even more forcefully.

It seemed Wu Chou also knew that Xuan Gu had the backing of Man Man Huzi, whom Master Ji Yin greatly feared, so he wouldn't be afraid of him using his status to suppress others.

Xuan Gu sneered at the corner of his mouth and didn't say much, pointing lightly at the green net.

The green light on the net flourished, the green threads became three-tenths thicker, and then the entire green net tightened.

The bound fire wolf, although forced by the joint spell-casting of Wu Chou and Xuan Gu, saw its light shield shrink by several circles after being squeezed, but it became even more dazzling and solid. The fire wolf was still able to glare at the two of them safely within the light shield. For a time, they fell into a stalemate.

The righteous and demonic sides, who were fighting fiercely in the sky, clearly hadn't expected this. This treasure had actually run to where Han Li and the others were.

Wan Wan Tianming and the other righteous path cultivators were suddenly anxious, wanting to withdraw to snatch this treasure.

But Man Man Huzi and Master Ji Yin were no longer in a hurry.

Regardless, the ones collecting the treasure over there were their own people. Naturally, they were happy to entangle the righteous path people and let Wu Chou, Xuan Gu, and the others collect this treasure safely.

Moreover, both felt that the person related to them had a greater possibility of collecting this treasure.

Master Ji Yin felt that Wu Chou had many treasures bestowed by him, and the Profound Yin Technique was also one of the top cultivation techniques in demonic arts. He felt that Wu Chou had a better grasp of collecting the treasure than Xuan Gu, who looked like he was only at the early Core Formation stage.

And Man Man Huzi, who knew Xuan Gu's true background, went without saying. He had even more confidence in Xuan Gu!

Seeing this scene, Qingyi Qingyi Jushi flashed a look of regret on his face. He hesitated for a moment but still entangled Tian Tian Wu Zi, not letting him separate to escape.

In this way, the only one left idle near the altar was Han Li.

But Han Li didn't feel that being idle was good at all; on the contrary, he was sweating coldly in his heart at this moment!

Because he felt that the flower basket ancient treasure's divine ability was just right for collecting magic treasures, he had taken out this ancient treasure without thinking.

But after seeing Xuan Gu take action to snatch the treasure, he suddenly recalled a very unfavorable matter.

This flower basket ancient treasure was obtained after he killed the ugly man who was guarding Xuan Gu. Taking it out like this, wasn't it telling Master Ji Yin to his face that Xuan Gu was released by him?

This made Han Li feel cold all over; he couldn't care about taking the treasure! His mind was filled with chaotic thoughts, and he tried his best to think of a strategy to deal with Master Ji Yin.

But after a while, Han Li was stunned.

He clearly sensed that Master Ji Yin's gaze only swept over the flower basket ancient treasure once and then immediately moved away. There wasn't the slightest abnormal emotion, and nothing happened!

Only then did Han Li understand with joy and surprise. The flower basket ancient treasure was not bestowed upon that ugly man by Master Ji Yin, and he seemed to know nothing about the ugly man possessing this treasure.

Only then did he truly feel relieved.

Han Li's guess was really not wrong!

The reason why that ugly man left the island guarding Xuan Gu for such a long time was because he had received news of the flower basket ancient treasure and had gone out privately.

Later, although he used means to successfully obtain this treasure, he let Han Li and his group break the formation trapping Xuan Gu into pieces.

This made the ugly man furious and jumping with rage. But in the end, he died under Han Li's Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword, and the ancient treasure he had just obtained became Han Li's spoils of war.

Han Li, who had regained his composure, glanced at Xuan Gu, who was competing with Wu Chou for the fire wolf, and couldn't help but secretly think:

"This can be considered your luck, old demon! If Master Ji Yin had really discovered this, I would definitely drag you into the water. Don't think about staying out of it!"

Just as it was unknown whether to say Han Li was lucky or Xuan Gu was lucky, another dull thunderous sound came from the cave entrance.

This time, the Nascent Soul stage cultivators, having gained experience, slowed their hand movements and looked at each other.

But then, it was unknown who moved first, and the six people appeared above the cave entrance simultaneously in a flash.

At this moment, the Heaven Void Cauldron was already very close to the cave entrance. Although these few were Nascent Soul stage cultivators, in order to resist the strange cold released from the cave entrance, they all circulated their cultivation techniques to the limit, bringing out defensive magic treasures one after another, with various strange lights swirling incessantly on their bodies. Furthermore, the righteous and demonic cultivators looked at each other with mutual vigilance.

Master Ji Yin was extremely annoyed at this moment!

According to his original idea, it was naturally to drive away the righteous path people and then take out the Heaven Void Cauldron and the treasure inside together, and then divide them according to the agreed share.

But never expected that when the Heaven Void Cauldron approached the cave entrance, the ancient treasure inside would fly away on its own.

Now that the treasure had fallen into whose hands, it all depended on their own ability to take it.

After all, no matter whose hands these ancient treasures fell into, it was impossible for them to spit them out and hand them over to others. In this way, the original agreement to divide the treasures was completely void.

Master Ji Yin was annoyed and his eyeballs turned around, wanting to see if there were any other ways for him to obtain more treasures.

But just as this thought arose, a harsh grating sound arose, followed by two "whoosh" sounds, and yellow and white rays of light flew out from the blue flames in the cave simultaneously.

The six people were so close to the treasure that they all took action simultaneously, using secret techniques to grab the light that was closer to them.

Among them, Wan Wan Tianming happened to set his sights on the yellow light along with Master Ji Yin and the old man in the Confucian robe. As a result, a purple fire dragon transformed from his hand bit at the yellow light, and at the same time, a strange look flashed across his face, and he opened his mouth, spitting two crystal purple round beads toward the opposite side without any politeness.

"Heavenly Net True Thunder!"

Master Ji Yin, upon seeing these inconspicuous small beads, screamed as if he had seen a poisonous snake.

Then, the two of them didn't dare to use magic treasures to block or catch this object, and their figures hurriedly flashed to avoid the beads.

But in this brief delay, the purple fire dragon swallowed the yellow light into its belly, then shook its head and retracted.

Wan Wan Tianming held the yellow light in his hands with excitement, and after rubbing his hands, revealed the original form of the ancient treasure.

It was actually a square ancient pendant, with runes flashing on it, and spiritual energy surging; it was clearly a top-notch treasure at a glance.

And those two purple round beads, after flying straight for several zhang, emitted two light explosions and vanished without a trace.

Seeing this scene, Master Ji Yin and the old man in the Confucian robe looked at Wan Wan Tianming, who was playing with the jade pendant, and their faces turned iron-blue immediately.

"What a good Sect Master Wan of the righteous path! Using such despicable means, using fake thunder to deceive us!" Master Ji Yin gritted his teeth and said word by word.

The old man in the Confucian robe also had a face like blood, staring coldly at Wan Wan Tianming without letting go.

Wan Wan Tianming heard this, but sneered and retorted:

"It's a shame that the two of you can be considered cultivators who have been famous for many years. You can't even distinguish the true from the false of the Heavenly Net True Thunder, and you still have the nerve to talk about despicable things in front of this Sect Master? Don't you know that unless there is a life-and-death danger, I would never be willing to use this treasure. After all, this is a divine thunder that can only be cultivated by damaging one's own magic power; I am not that extravagant. Of course, if the two fellow Daoists really want to witness this thunder bead, I can make an exception to fulfill the two of you."

After saying this, Wan Wan Tianming gently closed his hands.

After the purple light flashed, the jade pendant disappeared. But in his hand, there was another purple round bead identical to the one just now.

Master Ji Yin and the old man's faces changed, and they looked at each other with gloomy faces, as if both were somewhat undecided.

At this moment, Man Man Huzi also relied on the super defense of the Heaven-Supporting Demon Technique to hard-resist a strike from the thin, dark-skinned old man and Tian Tian Wu Zi, and snatched the white light into his hands.

It was a copper coin-shaped ancient coin flashing with white light, looking extremely peculiar.

Master Ji Yin saw this scene, and his face became even uglier.

Just at this time, the old man on the side suddenly let out a light "eh," appearing very surprised.

Master Ji Yin couldn't help but look over following his gaze, and his face also revealed a look of surprise.

Because near the altar below, Han Li was holding a jade Jade Ruyi of yellow and red colors, examining it carefully, and two lifelike wolf heads were carved on both ends of the Jade Ruyi.

Looking at the situation, it was exactly the ancient treasure transformed from the two-headed fire wolf just now! And not far away, Wu Chou and Xuan Gu were looking at Han Li with helplessness. Their faces were full of frustration!

Master Ji Yin flashed a look of doubt in his eyes, but remained silent. But in his heart, he was truly shocked.

This ancient treasure did not fall into the hands of Wu Chou and Xuan Gu, but instead fell into the hands of Han Li, who had no intention of taking action at the beginning.

For Master Ji Yin, this was truly too unexpected.
