Chapter 74: First to Obtain the Supreme Treasure: Bishui Qingming Yu

~7 min read 1,343 words

After Xu Chen and the others entered first, as expected, the Safe Gate of Gale changed once more. However, with Xu Chen's warning, everyone had gained some experience. Through slow exploration, they not only found one safe entrance but several. Elites from top sixth-grade sects such as Shadow Gate, Heavenly Sword Sect, Heavenly Thunder Pavilion, and Five Poisons Sect subsequently entered the Ancient Battlefield.

Even Ye Xuan, guided by the Spirit Venerable, entered the Ancient Battlefield quickly. Zhao Qingyun floated in gracefully, needing no exploration at all, like an immortal or a Buddha. "Who is this woman? She needs no exploration whatsoever?"

The remaining weaker sects were stunned upon witnessing this scene. This could not be a coincidence; it was an inevitable result of their strength.

Immediately, before their stunned eyes, Zhao Qingyun vanished into thin air. Their mouths hung slightly open, with a vague feeling that this woman might be the strongest of all. Compared to her, even Xu Chen would likely fall slightly short. Not long after Xu Chen entered, he discovered that, just like in his past life, this place was layered. What did "layered" mean?

It meant that between the first and second layers lay a spiritual energy array barrier. To enter the second layer, one had to find a way through this spiritual energy barrier. However, this barrier was not easy to cross; only top-tier array masters could pass through without damage. Without such skill, one could only force a breach, but the spiritual energy barrier would quickly restore itself. One could only rush into the next layer before the barrier reformed. This was the rule of the Ancient Battlefield.

At this moment, with the help of Bu Fengshuang, Xu Chen and the others rapidly reached the third layer. Gongsun Liuli smiled, "It is rumored that the higher the layer, the greater the chance of finding opportunities." Bu Fengshuang said, "We are now on the third layer; there should be something special here." As he finished speaking, the Fire Qilin exclaimed, "Look, a mirage!" Everyone looked closely and confirmed it was indeed so.

Within the mirage, emperors were locked in battle. Roars echoed continuously, unleashing ferocious forces that shattered mountains and rivers inch by inch. "It is an illusory scene, a battle of the Wu Di from ancient times left behind."

"Judging by the scene, there were quite a few Wu Di back then," Bu Fengshuang remarked after a glance. Xi added, "Wu Di are extremely rare now, likely because of this ancient battle."

No one knew the cause that triggered this battle, but it certainly caused the demise of a vast number of Wu Di.

However, this was a small-scale Ancient Battlefield for fifth and sixth-grade experts, not a Wu Di battlefield. Gongsun Liuli smiled, "Of course, according to ancient records, the Ancient Battlefield within the Tianxuan Secret Realm is merely one ten-thousandth of the total battlefield."

There are no Wu Di inheritances here, but inheritances from fifth and sixth-grade experts certainly exist. The mirage we saw was formed by refracting scenes from other Ancient Battlefields." The three women, unwilling to be outdone, clearly explained the origin of this place. The other five women pouted, wanting to say something but finding nothing to add, as their knowledge was indeed inferior to that of the three women. Finally, they could only snort coldly and fall silent. "Let us enter first and see if there are any opportunities nearby," Xu Chen said.

In the original plot, the perspective was always Ye Xuan's. But it was impossible for all treasures to belong to Ye Xuan.

Searching now also held a high probability of extra gains. Otherwise, once everyone else entered later, there would be nothing left. "Bishui Qingming Yu, Brother Chen, your Divine Jade Battle Armor can be saved." Soon after, Gongsun Liuli spoke urgently.

The women turned to look and saw Gongsun Liuli pointing at a massive stone. The stone was green, with a small indentation in its center.

Inside the indentation lay a pool of water, appearing transparent, pristine, and perfectly rounded. When a gentle breeze blew, it swayed only slightly, resembling more of a juice. Gongsun Liuli said, "This massive stone must be Bishui Jade, but Bishui Jade itself is useless. The Bishui Qingming Yu nurtured within it is the true treasure. This substance can repair flaws in weapons and is one of the favorites among weapon refiners. Brother Chen, if your Divine Jade Battle Armor has this, there is hope for its repair." Seeing this, Xu Chen also showed joy on his face: "You are right; this is a fine treasure." In the original text, this treasure never appeared. He never expected that being forced to enter early would lead him to discover such a good thing. Xu Chen immediately took out a white bottle and collected the Bishui Qingming Yu.

After collection, there were about three bottles in total. Xu Chen sighed, "The Bishui Qingming Yu is rumored to produce only one drop every two thousand years; its preciousness is evident."

At this moment, people from various major sects behind them happened to enter and witnessed this scene. "Damn! Bishui Qingming Yu?"

Seeing the three small bottles in Xu Chen's hand, their eyes instantly turned red.

This was a fine treasure!

If taken outside, a single drop could sell for ten thousand taels, incredibly expensive. So right now, Xu Chen held at least a million taels of silver in his hands.

For a moment, they gritted their teeth, "Damn it, we should have entered earlier." Some even wished they could rush over and snatch it right now. "Whoosh!"

As expected, an expert from the Diamond Gate sect tried to rush forward to seize the Bishui Qingming Yu. But the next second, they were stunned.

They saw a barrier resembling a formation appear out of thin air, blocking his path.

The Diamond Gate expert punched the spiritual energy barrier, but it only caused faint ripples. At the same time, a huge, eye-catching character appeared on the barrier: One.

They also saw that the side where Xu Chen and the others were located had a spiritual energy barrier as well, but the number was: Three.

"The battlefield area is layered. We are currently on the first layer, while Xu Chen and the others are on the third."

"The higher the layer, the greater the chance of finding opportunities." The next second, someone with broad knowledge directly revealed the truth. Everyone was dumbfounded. So, could they only watch as Xu Chen obtained the treasures? Damn, that was too unbearable.

The Heavenly Thunder Pavilion member said softly, "That is not Xu Chen's fault. Xu Chen just let us enter first, and no one from our side went in."

Everyone's faces turned dark. Who the hell would dare to recklessly test the gale?

Didn't they see the fate of Jin Wudi who tried recklessly? He is still coughing up blood now. But they really felt unwilling. "Damn it..."

Ye Xuan, standing nearby, saw this scene and was about to vomit blood. They should have said there was Bishui Qingming Yu!

If they had known, he would have entered first long ago. Why play the role of the fisherman waiting for others to catch the fish? Damn it, all because of his fisherman mentality, always trying to pick up leftovers. Now he would get nothing. The Heavenly Thunder Pavilion member said softly again, "Our Pavilion Master told us to enter the Ancient Battlefield quickly, and he was indeed right. Now Xu Chen is on the third layer, while we are only on the first; the treasures are likely all gone." Everyone's lips twitched slightly. Don't say another word.

Wasn't the sadness and regret enough already?

If Heaven gave them a chance to start over, they would definitely rush into the battlefield first!

After putting away the Bishui Qingming Yu, Xu Chen also heard those words. He turned, smiled lightly, and looked at Ye Xuan, saying, "Oh, trash, you're here too? You managed to get in; that's quite absurd!"

Ye Xuan: "............"
