Chapter 1716
The treasure vault was on the west side of the Forest of Eternity, and the two had to cross the entire Forest of Eternity to get there.
Along the way, Xu Que could see the marks left by Er Gouzi everywhere, all of them claw marks, all printed in various hidden corners.
Even with his toenails, he knew that the guy must have discovered that there were good things here, so he specially marked them, waiting to come back and dig them out later.
"It feels like there was a battle here?" Xu Que looked around and found traces of battle everywhere.
Donglingcao nodded and said: "Yes, we were often invaded by extraterrestrial demons here before. It seems that it was only after Er Gouzi came here that the extraterrestrial demons came less often..."
She thought for a while and suddenly said: "It seems that after Er Gouzi left here, the extraterrestrial demons at most ambushed outside the forest and never came in again."
Hearing this, Xu Que had some vague guesses in his heart, but he didn't dare to be completely sure.
Crossing the entire Forest of Eternity, the two came to the treasure vault of the Eternal Tribe.
The entrance was a tree hole. Walking into the hole, Donglingcao pressed somewhere on the side, and light shone from the side, spreading in a ring, gradually illuminating the entire cave.
"Miss Dong, is this your treasure vault?" Xu Que looked at the situation in the treasure vault, his brows furrowed. "Did you really not take the wrong road?"
"How is that possible?!" Donglingcao shouted angrily, seemingly realizing that the treasure vault was not very presentable, and her voice gradually lowered. "It's just... that, we don't usually manage it, and it was ransacked by that dog before..."
Generally speaking, for the sake of convenience, the treasure vault would number and display items, not to mention classifying them like the Heavenly Palace Academy before, and even having protective arrays, but at least you should have a shelf, right?
No, there was nothing.
Looking around, except for a few weeds, there was basically nothing else in this treasure vault.
"Your tribe is really..." Xu Que thought for a long time, but couldn't think of any serious adjectives. "Simple and generous."
Another way to put it is, poor as hell.
Donglingcao also knew that there was really nothing in their treasure vault, muttering, not knowing what to say.
The lights on both sides of the treasure vault were very soft. Xu Que walked around the treasure vault twice and always felt that something was wrong.
"How long did it take Er Gouzi to empty your treasure vault at that time?" Xu Que asked.
Donglingcao pouted angrily, thought for a while and said: "It should have taken about an hour..."
An hour?
Xu Que was stunned. Er Gouzi's speed of stealing things was lightning fast, and he couldn't catch up even if he whipped his horse. How could it stay in the treasure vault for such a long time!
Walking around twice more, Xu Que was suddenly shocked, and an unbelievable look appeared in his eyes.
This is damn it an array!
The entire treasure vault seemed to have no wealth, and various sundries were placed on the ground in a mess, such as stones, weeds, and wooden blocks.
But in fact, Xu Que saw clues from these things; after all, he had followed Er Gouzi to learn arrays for a while.
According to the current form, this is definitely a teleportation array, and there is also a sealing array in it.
What exactly did Er Gouzi do in here?
Xu Que asked intentionally or unintentionally: "By the way, I see that this forest doesn't seem to have any protective arrays?"
Donglingcao's delicate brows frowned: "We don't learn arrays."
"Don't learn? Why?"
"We are born to master the Great Dao, and arrays are not of much use to us." Donglingcao said honestly.
Xu Que thought about it, and it made sense.
Arrays generally use the power of heaven and earth to form a certain rule-based power, which can also be said to use external forces to achieve the effect of controlling the rules.
Since they are born to master the Great Dao, there is no need to learn arrays again.
"Alright, there's nothing to see, let's go." Xu Que waved his hand, then turned and left swaggeringly.
Seeing him suddenly leave, Donglingcao hurriedly followed.
Walking around the forest twice more, Xu Que had always wanted to find the hole in the Forest of Chaos; after all, in later generations, they were trapped inside.
But after searching around and not finding it, Xu Que simply gave up on this idea.
That afternoon, in a treehouse in the forest, he received a warm reception from the Eternal Tribe. It had to be said that the people of this tribe were quite friendly to outsiders.
During the meal, they even prepared quite exciting song and dance performances, making Xu Que sigh with emotion.
I didn't expect that there was such advanced thinking ten thousand years ago, and it was lost in later generations!
This is truly the loss of cultural treasures, which makes people feel heartbroken!
That night, Xu Que lay in the treehouse, calculating the situation of the day.
He deliberately let that extraterrestrial demon go, so it shouldn't be long before the army presses on the border.
After all, he didn't have much time to delay. Now he didn't know how much the time flow in the illusion differed from the outside world. If he delayed for too long, and found that he was dead as soon as he went back, that would be a tragedy.
"But this Eternal Tribe seems a bit strange..." Xu Que turned over and muttered.
They were simply too enthusiastic.
This is very abnormal.
A tribe that has been able to survive to this day under the invasion of the Demon Race and still maintain such a large population should not have such low vigilance against outsiders.
What if he was a Demon Race member in disguise?
Furthermore, for a tribe that masters the Great Dao from birth, how could those cultivators who are not profitable not be tempted?
Thinking about it, he suddenly heard a slight movement behind him.
Xu Que flipped up, and his hand had already condensed a divine ability: "Who?"
The system is free for the whole show. During the day, Xu Que had already mastered ten divine abilities. Now he had reached the state where his thoughts moved with his heart. Whoever dared to come over, he would give them a great divine ability, beating them into ashes.
He saw a girl in white standing at the door. Under the cover of the moonlight, her body seemed to be shining, her pretty face was flushed, and her skin was like jade, breakable by a blow.
It was Donglingcao!
"What are you doing here?" Seeing that it was an acquaintance, Xu Que breathed a sigh of relief.
He saw Donglingcao blushing, and after a moment, she muttered: "I, I came, came to... sleep with you..."
Xu Que felt that he had heard wrong, and after confirming that the other party was not lying, he looked at her attire.
A white dress wrapped from head to toe, covering her whole body tightly, let alone those beautiful spring scenes, even a little skin was not exposed.
"Sigh... you use this to test this poor monk?"
Xu Que looked righteous and shouted in a righteous tone, "Which monk can't withstand such a test?"
