Chapter 86: Obtaining the Treasure

Within the starry cosmos of the Flame Secret Realm.

"Master!"

Seeing that all the Universe Lords of the Human Race faction had departed, Yan Di quickly turned to look at Zuo Shanke and asked with a confused expression: "With your strength, why did you agree to so many conditions from the Great Axe and the others, even handing them a peak supreme treasure?"

Indeed!

After the Great Axe Originator and Zuo Shanke conversed, Zuo Shanke quickly made Yan Di hand over all the treasures seized from Zifeng Zunzhe, including the Jin Yu and Silver Wings, as well as the resources originally gifted to Yan Di by the Human Race, which were worth a top-tier supreme treasure weapon.

Beyond that, Zuo Shanke also promised that Yan Di would keep the many secrets of the Human Race, would not bully the small in the future, and would not attack the Human Race's Universe Lords and Immortal Gods without cause; in the end, he even compensated the Human Race with a peak supreme treasure longsword!

And in Yan Di's view, Zuo Shanke's actions were truly too cowardly!

Even if Zuo Shanke did not agree to those conditions proposed by the Human Race, could the Human Race possibly offend a lone supreme being like him who had no ties?

Especially that last peak supreme treasure longsword; giving it to the Human Race was no better than giving it to him!

Although he could not use it, he could still exchange it with other powerful beings for other supreme treasures!

"Hmph!"

Zuo Shanke let out a cold snort and immediately said: "Cao Benqi, you have truly disappointed me!"

Hearing Zuo Shanke's words, Yan Di's heart instantly panicked.

Cao Benqi was his true name, and Zuo Shanke had always called him "disciple" before; calling him by his true name this time clearly indicated he was extremely dissatisfied with him.

Previously, when facing the siege and suppression by Hun Dun Chengzhu and the others, Yan Di had not cared at all, because he knew Zuo Shanke was backing him up!

After all, he was completely different from the servant-born Puti; he was the strongest of the Flame God Clan lineage carefully guided and nurtured by Zuo Shanke. Not only had he undergone numerous trials set by Zuo Shanke, but the supreme treasures on his body were also forged by Zuo Shanke after countless efforts, so Zuo Shanke would absolutely not abandon this disciple of his!

But now that Zuo Shanke was angry, he was truly afraid!

After all, Zuo Shanke was his greatest backing; if he truly became dissatisfied with him, then his future days would not be easy!

Thinking of this, Yan Di hurriedly said: "Master, forgive me! This time, the Human Race was truly too oppressive; that Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu even allied with Hun Dun Chengzhu and others to besiege this disciple, wanting to completely suppress me!"

"The fall of my avatar is a minor matter, but if I were to lose the supreme treasure bestowed upon me by you, Master, I would be guilty of a hundred deaths without redemption, so this disciple rashly sought your help!"

Hearing Yan Di's words, Zuo Shanke silently shook his head in his heart.

He had learned the entire cause and effect of this matter; if Yan Di could directly admit to killing and seizing treasures, he might have looked a bit higher upon this disciple, but now...

"Enough!"

Zuo Shanke sighed in his heart and continued speaking: "Let this matter end here; shortly, you shall lead the Flame God Clan lineage to leave the Human Race's territory! With your current strength, you are fully capable of leading the Flame God Clan lineage to occupy a territory and thrive!"

"This disciple obeys!" Yan Di hurriedly said respectfully.

"And also..."

Zuo Shanke continued giving orders: "You just heard the conditions proposed by the Great Axe; if you are besieged again by powerful beings of the Human Race due to leaking those secrets of the Human Race, your master will not intervene again!"

"This disciple understands!" Yan Di respectfully replied again.

"Disciple!"

Seeing Yan Di's respectful attitude, Zuo Shanke could not help but remind him again: "Your talent in the divine body is quite powerful; as long as your divine body can break through again and reach the level of perfect life genes, your strength will naturally increase once more! At that time, even if Hun Dun Chengzhu and others join forces, they may not be able to suppress you!"

"This disciple will strictly follow Master's teachings!"

Although Yan Di's face showed immense respect and gratitude while saying this, his heart was far from convinced!

After all, his current life gene level had already reached nearly ten thousand times that of ordinary universe life, while the perfect life gene level was merely 10,081 times that of ordinary universe life; there was no huge gap between the two, so how could it greatly increase his strength?

"I hope you will not disappoint your master's expectations!" Zuo Shanke said again.

"This disciple will certainly strive and will never let you, Master, down!"

Yan Di immediately made this promise, then could not help but complain about his poverty: "However, now that this disciple has separated from the Human Race, leading the Flame God Clan to establish a foothold in the vast universe in the future will surely be very difficult; I wonder if you, Master, could bestow upon me a peak domain-type supreme treasure?"

When it came to complaining about poverty, Yan Di was very experienced!

Originally, Zuo Shanke had entrusted him with the Tribulation Armor prepared for the third disciple precisely because he had complained about poverty to Zuo Shanke!

But this time, Zuo Shanke did not bestow a peak domain-type supreme treasure upon him as he had expected; instead, he directly said coldly: "Your master has already given you a promise long ago!"

"As long as you can kill ten Universe Lords, or one hundred top-tier Universe Hegemons, your master will naturally help you forge a supreme treasure most suitable for you!"

"Very well, your master has said all that needs to be said; as for how far you can go in the future, that depends entirely on yourself."

After saying this, Zuo Shanke looked deeply at Yan Di, then his avatar completely vanished and disappeared.

Watching Zuo Shanke's avatar vanish, Yan Di's expression on his face remained very respectful, but his heart was already filled with dissatisfaction!

"Why?"

Yan Di thought silently in his heart: "Master Zuo Shanke, what is a peak domain-type supreme treasure to you? You can casually give the Human Race a peak supreme treasure longsword, so why can't you give me a peak domain-type supreme treasure?"

"Hmph! You still want me to slay ten Universe Lords, and avatars don't even count! Even that scoundrel Hun Dun Chengzhu may not be able to kill ten Universe Lords!"

"And that damned Human Race, just wait; once my strength is powerful enough, I will definitely make you pay the price for today's events!"

On the other side, after receiving the telepathic message from Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu, Zifeng Zunzhe also quickly returned to the Virtual Universe Company's Universal Headquarters with Lu Qingshan.

Inside Zifeng Zunzhe's luxurious residence.

After Lu Qingshan stepped out of a nutrient pod filled with nutrient fluid, his divine body had fully restored to its perfect state.

"Not bad!"

Looking at Lu Qingshan who had just stepped out of the nutrient pod, Zifeng Zunzhe nodded and said: "Little one, I have just reviewed your detailed records; you are able to comprehend all the essences of the Time Origin Law, so there is still great hope for you to become a Hei Fengwang in the future; at least you haven't lost face for our Lord Lord Bingfeng lineage!"

"Zunzhe flatters me!" Lu Qingshan hurriedly said humbly.

"Very well!"

Zifeng Zunzhe waved his hand and then said: "You just wait for me here in my residence; I will now go to the Clan Treasury to exchange the treasures you need for you!"

"Thank you, Zunzhe!" Lu Qingshan hurriedly nodded and said.

After waving his hand, Zifeng Zunzhe quickly left the residence and headed toward the direction of the transmission channel.

Walking along the road, a hint of regret flashed through Zifeng Zunzhe's heart.

"I was too impulsive before!"

Zifeng Zunzhe thought silently in his heart: "Actually, that treasure of the sealing category was originally mine; it was merely snatched away by Seeing Yan Di, and later picked up by that little brat Lu Qingshan!"

"Retrieving my treasure is completely different in nature from Seeing Yan Di killing me to steal it, so there is absolutely no need to exchange items worth two hundred heavy treasure points for that little brat Lu Qingshan!"

"Perhaps I should exchange those treasures that aid breakthroughs for him, and then ask my teacher to resurrect the person he wishes to resurrect, but forget the soul-type heavy treasure? After all, he is currently just a small Immortal of the Marquis-Sealing realm and has no use for heavy treasures!"

Various thoughts constantly flashed through Zifeng Zunzhe's mind: "However, since the words have already been spoken, would it not be improper to go back on them?"

Just as Zifeng Zunzhe was pondering these matters, he suddenly received a message from Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu.

"My teacher has ordered me to go see his true body as soon as possible?"

Thinking of this, Zifeng Zunzhe shifted his mind, and very quickly changed direction to rush to the central teleportation site.

After undergoing two teleports and multiple instantaneous movements, Zifeng Zunzhe soon arrived at Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu's residence in the Primordial Secret Realm.

"Disciple pays respects to my teacher!"

Looking at Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu seated on the Wang Zuo, Zifeng Zunzhe hurriedly knelt down respectfully.

Regarding Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu, Zifeng Zunzhe was naturally infinitely respectful; especially this time, when Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu directly acted against Seeing Yan Di for his sake, it moved him greatly.

"Hmph!"

Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu waved his hand to signal Zifeng Zunzhe to rise, then continued speaking: "This matter has now reached a conclusion!"

Seeing this, Zifeng Zunzhe immediately listened attentively.

"Seeing Yan Di not only killed a powerful kinsman to seize the supreme treasure, but after the fact still showed no remorse and refused to apologize!"

Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu spoke in a cold voice: "After unanimous agreement by the high-levels of our Human Race, it has been decided to expel Seeing Yan Di and the Yan God Clan from our Human Race!"

Hearing Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu's words, Zifeng Zunzhe was completely stunned.

Seeing Yan Di, a Universe Master such as he, was expelled by the Human Race just like that? And along with the extremely powerful Yan God Clan lineage?

"Not good, my supreme treasure!"

Thinking of this, a trace of worry appeared on Zifeng Zunzhe's face.

In his view, since Seeing Yan Di was expelled by the Human Race this time, his supreme treasure would definitely be impossible to recover.

"Look at your lack of spirit!"

Noticing Zifeng Zunzhe's expression, Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu quickly said: "Rest assured; before expelling Seeing Yan Di, this teacher has already recovered your supreme treasure for you!"

Hearing these words, a look of surprise immediately appeared on Zifeng Zunzhe's face, and he hurriedly said respectfully: "Disciple thanks my teacher!"

"Enough!"

With a wave of Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu's hand, several streams of light flew toward Zifeng Zunzhe; these were the many supreme treasures he had previously had snatched by Seeing Yan Di, except that Liuguang Zhiyi was uniquely missing.

Seeing this, Zifeng Zunzhe could only speak up again: "Teacher, among the supreme treasures stolen from me by Seeing Yan Di, there was actually a pair of wing-type supreme treasures!"

"I know!"

Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu said with a smile: "After your wing-type supreme treasure merged with another pair of wings, it has crossed into the top tier; even for an existence like this teacher, it is of great help!"

Hearing these words, Zifeng Zunzhe hurriedly said: "Disciple is willing to offer the supreme treasure to my teacher!"

"Hahaha! Zifeng, you did well this time in that Yan Mystery Secret Realm, and have also given this teacher face!"

With a wave of Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu's hand, a pair of gold-and-silver wing-type supreme treasures flew toward Zifeng Zunzhe: "You were willing to give two hundred heavy treasure points to that Marquis-Sealing level little brat; do you think this teacher would be greedy for your supreme treasure?"

Seeing this, Zifeng Zunzhe quickly put away Jin Yu and the silver wings, then asked with slight confusion: "Teacher, you said I did well; does that refer to the matter of me trading heavy treasures with that Marquis-Sealing Immortal?"

"Correct!"

Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu said with a smile: "When you exchanged treasures with that little brat, this teacher was trampling Seeing Yan Di, and the matter of you trading heavy treasures with that little brat naturally fell under the eyes of the two of us; this teacher used this to mock Seeing Yan Di thoroughly!"

"This..."

Zifeng Zunzhe was completely stunned; he never expected that his impulsive action at the time would actually allow Seeing Yan Di to be severely mocked by his teacher?

No!

What impulsive action? It was clearly something he decided upon after deep consideration!

Thinking of this, Zifeng Zunzhe felt a wave of relief in his heart!

Fortunately, my teacher summoned me before I went to exchange treasures for Lu Qingshan; otherwise, if I had truly kept Lu Qingshan's soul-type heavy treasure, it might have made my teacher think I was an inconsistent person!

Thinking of this, Zifeng Zunzhe spoke again: "Teacher, when exchanging treasures, I promised that little brat to ask my teacher to resurrect a Domain Master; I wonder if my teacher..."

"I am already aware of this matter!"

Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu said with a smile: "That little brat is, after all, someone of our lineage; since he values emotions so highly, I naturally must help him. You go and make arrangements first; at that time, I will go myself!"

"Disciple obeys!" Zifeng Zunzhe hurriedly said.

"Enough, the matter has been instructed; you may go!" Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu ordered again.

"Disciple takes his leave!" Zifeng Zunzhe immediately bowed respectfully, then exited Lord Lord Bingfeng Zhi Zhu's palace.

Half a day later, Zifeng Zunzhe was in his residence on the continent of the Virtual Universe Company's Universal Headquarters.

"Lu Qingshan!"

With a wave of Zifeng Zunzhe's hand, several ancient stone boxes appeared before Lu Qingshan: "These are the treasures you exchanged that can aid one in breaking through to become Immortal!"

"Thanks, Zunzhe!"

Lu Qingshan quickly carefully put away the ancient stone boxes before him, then asked respectfully: "Zunzhe, I wonder if these spiritual fruits can be used together?"

"Hahaha..."

Hearing Lu Qingshan's words, Zifeng Zunzhe quickly said with a laugh: "Little brat, you don't think that using these treasures together will allow one to break through to become Immortal with one hundred percent certainty, do you?"

Hearing these words, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Lu Qingshan's face.

He had indeed had such a thought before; although he felt it was unrealistic, he still couldn't help but want to ask.

At this moment, Zifeng Zunzhe continued speaking: "Not to mention that the same type of treasure can only be consumed once, even if different treasures are consumed simultaneously, the probability of breaking through to Immortal will not increase at all! If it were truly as you think, then the exchange prices for those treasures with high breakthrough probabilities would not be so high!"

"Thanks to Zunzhe for clarifying!" Lu Qingshan hurriedly said.

"Enough!"

Zifeng Zunzhe waved his hand again, and a teardrop-shaped crystal radiating seven-colored light immediately appeared in midair.

This crystal was only the size of an ordinary person's fist, yet seven-colored light flowed ceaselessly within it, while also emanating a faint pressure.

"This is the soul-type treasure you asked me to exchange for!"

Zifeng Zunzhe looked at Lu Qingshan, then said with a smile: "This is already the cheapest soul-type treasure in the clan's vault, but the exchange price is as high as 120 treasure points! Little fellow, the treasure points you have remaining with me are not enough to exchange for this soul-type treasure!"

"Zunzhe, this…"

Lu Qingshan was suddenly at a loss for words.

Should he ask Zifeng Zunzhe to exchange for a few more treasure points for him?

He wasn't that greedy!

After all, Zifeng Zunzhe had already been very good to him; if it were someone else, giving him even 1 treasure point would already be inconceivable!

Then should he say he would repay Zifeng Zunzhe double the treasure points in the future?

He might dare to say it, but Zifeng Zunzhe wouldn't believe it either!

And just as various thoughts flashed through Lu Qingshan's mind, Zifeng Zunzhe laughed heartily and said: "Little fellow, you just need to remember you owe me 2 treasure points, and when you have the chance in the future, you can repay me then!"

In truth, 2 treasure points were nothing more than a drop in the bucket for Zifeng Zunzhe, who had just obtained a top-tier supreme treasure!

Moreover, the matter of exchanging treasures with Lu Qingshan earlier could also be considered a help to him, so naturally he wouldn't be stingy with a mere two treasure points.

As for asking Lu Qingshan to repay the treasure points, that was entirely a joke!

After all, in Zifeng Zunzhe's view, Lu Qingshan's future ceiling would at most be becoming a Hei Fengwang-level Undying; if he didn't encounter any special opportunities again, he probably wouldn't be able to accumulate enough resources for 2 treasure points even if he waited until the universe perished.

As for encountering special opportunities, that was even more impossible!

After all, Lu Qingshan being able to pick up that top-tier sealing-type treasure this time was already the luck of who knows how many myriad eons; could he really encounter it a second time?

Soon, Zifeng Zunzhe waved his hand, and that teardrop-shaped crystal immediately flew before Lu Qingshan.

"Your subordinate thanks Zunzhe for your great kindness!"

Lu Qingshan carefully held the treasure in his hand, while also resolving in his heart that once his strength grew powerful in the future, he would repay Zifeng Zunzhe's help today a thousand-fold, ten-thousand-fold!

"Your willpower is already quite strong; with the protection of this soul-type treasure, even ordinary universe Zunzhes would likely find it very hard to enslave or destroy your soul! However…"

Zifeng Zunzhe continued: "This soul-type treasure is still very precious; even many universe Zunzhes would be extremely envious of it, so you must remember—absolutely do not reveal any information about it!"

"Thank you, Zunzhe, for the reminder!" Lu Qingshan hurriedly said with respectful gratitude.
