Chapter 437.
Hidden Treasure Pavilion ……
Looking at the three True Seal Runes on the stone door, Wang Chen wanted to spit.
Was this considered a reward for passing the copy?
It had to be said that this Ancient Immortal Gate that constructed the Nine Dragons Earth Palace as a place for disciples to practice was still very creative.
Wang Dust carefully observed this stone gate and found that there was a hexagonal groove in the center part of the gate, and below it was a rectangular groove that seemed to have been originally inlaid with something.
With a movement in his heart, he took the earth-colored crystal in his hand and pressed it onto the hexagonal groove.
Click!
The tight fit was just right.
The ancient copper stone door shook steeply, and a faint light emerged on its surface.
However, Wang Chen waited for a moment, but there was no more new movement.
Just this?
He thought for a moment, and his gaze fell on the long groove below.
It can’t be?
Wang Dust took out the long strip of jade he got from demonic cultivator Yang B from his Sumeru Ring and tried to fill in the groove.
He originally thought that it was an ancient sealing jade, but later realized that it could fit into a storage bag and couldn’t figure out its origin.
Only to hear a “click”, the jade and the groove were perfectly set together!
Buzz~
The stone door steeply occurred a violent tremor, engraved in the surface of the runes one by one lit up, stream of color dazzling extremely.
The intense light caused Wang Chen to involuntarily close his eyes.
In the next moment, a powerful and unrivaled suction force steeply pulled him forward.
Before Wang Chen could react, he realized that he was already in a ten-foot-square chamber.
In the center of the room was an ancient table, on which were displayed a jade slip, a short blade, and a white jade box.
These three items were all covered by a transparent film of light.
Without any reason, as if this secret room would pass information to the intruder, Wang Chen instantly realized that this was the reward item he deserved.
But you can only choose one of the three.
I’ll take them all!
Wang Dust’s thoughts were excellent, unfortunately, his intuition told him that choosing one out of three was a rule he could not fight against.
The downfall of greed could be having none of the items or even losing his life!
Wang Dust suppressed the unrealistic impulses within him and seriously pondered which item he should choose.
There was only one chance, and once you chose it, you couldn’t reverse it.
And there was no way to get your hands on it.
His eyes skimmed over the jade slip, the short blade and the white jade box one by one.
Nine times out of ten, the jade slip was a technique, the short blade was definitely a weapon, and it was hard to say what was hidden in the white jade box, pills, talismans, or heavenly treasures were all possible.
So how should one choose?
The moment Wang Chen’s gaze fell on the white jade box, the Life Creation Cauldron hanging in front of his chest suddenly vibrated.
And it became hot!
“Huh?”
Wang Chen froze.
He sensed that this treasure of his existed some sort of connection with the white jade box to cause such a violent reaction.
That was it then!
Wang Dust had never been the type of person who was indecisive or hesitant, and since the Birth and Creation Cauldron had made the choice for him, it was up to this treasure to decide.
It couldn’t be a loss anyway!
He probed his hand towards the white jade box and grabbed it.
Wang Chen’s hand penetrated through the film of light without any stagnation and grasped the box in his hand.
At this instant, he felt a heavenly rotation, the whole person completely lost control, the field of vision was white, no longer able to distinguish between the front and back, up and down, left and right, and fell into a state of weightlessness.
It was as if a century had passed, but it seemed to be just a snap of the fingers.
When Wang Chuan’s consciousness and vision returned to normal, he was shocked to find that the surrounding area was brightly lit, with noisy sounds pouring into his ears, full of popularity.
Wang Chen was actually back in the Nine Dragons Hall, standing in front of the teleportation stone pillar!
Surprise, curiosity, doubt ……
All sorts of strange gazes focused on his body, carrying a strong sense of inquiry.
Wang Dust’s image at this moment could be said to be quite bad, the vestments on his body were badly torn and stained with spots of blood.
At a glance, he had just been in a grueling battle.
And more people’s gazes coalesced on the box that Wang Chen was holding tightly in his hand.
This white jade box was limpid, its body was white and flawless, anyone could see that it was extraordinary.
These gazes were mostly characterized by greed!
Reacting to this, Wang Dust immobilized and stuffed the white jade box into his arms.
He had just realized that this item could not fit into the Sumeru Ring either.
“This senior brother ……”
It was at this time that a Purple Mansion cultivator walked up with a smile on his face and tried to accost him.
Without giving the other party half a wink, Wang Chen turned his head and walked towards the outside of the hall.
He only wanted to clarify the situation right now, and he didn’t have the slightest intention of making false pretenses.
That Purple Mansion cultivator froze, his eyes flashed with a hint of shame, and he couldn’t help but snort coldly.
Wang Chen didn’t care about that much, after exiting the Nine Dragons Great Hall and returning to the ground, he quickly sacrificed his Yaoguang Sword and flew towards Ten Thousand Spirits City.
At the same time, he sent out a messenger.
When Wang Dust was about to approach Ten Thousand Spirit City, he received a reply.
Half an hour later, Wang Chen met Zuo Xiaomo at the Xu Family.
“Senior Brother Wang!”
When Zuo Xiaomo saw Wang Chuan, it was as if he had seen a long-lost relative and almost burst into tears, “It’s great that you’re back!”
Wang Chuan, who had just showered and changed his clothes and was in high spirits, smiled and said, “It’s good that you’re not in trouble.”
Previously, Wang Dust had been worried about Zuo Xiaomo’s safety.
If the other party fell into the same situation as himself, he was afraid that it would be hard to come back alive.
He asked with a straight face, “Do you know what happened?”
Zuo Xiaomo sighed, “It’s hard to explain.”
It turned out that when he teleported to the second level of the Nine Dragons Earth Palace, he realized that Wang Chen did not follow him.
However, all the other outer disciples participating in the examination were there.
Zuo Xiaomo wasn’t the only one in the same situation, in fact all of the Purple Mansion Dao Protectors who had teleported in the same batch had disappeared!
Fatefully, everyone realized that they had been teleported to an unknown region!
This scared everyone.
For the sake of their own safety, everyone could only report to the group and form a team to explore together and find their way back.
In the process, they encountered attacks from monsters and evil spirits.
Some disciples were seriously injured, and there were also those who were unfortunate enough to die in battle.
Zuo Xiaomo’s luck was good, mixing in with the team without encountering any major crises, and persevered until he broke away from the unknown area.
When he returned to Ten Thousand Spirits City, it was already the seventh day of the examination.
After the West Sea Sect learned of the situation, they immediately re-closed the Nine Dragons Earth Palace, but soon reopened it again.
This was because there were missing Dao Protectors returning one after another.
The sect’s side speculated that it was probably because the teleportation array in the Nine Dragons Palace wasn’t very stable yet.
It was now no longer allowed for Qi Practicing cultivators and Violet Mansion cultivators to teleport in the same batch.
As for the disciples who returned safely, they were all considered to have passed the examination.
That is to say that the current Zuo Xiaomo is already an official outer disciple of the West Sea Sect!
Then he had been waiting for news from Wang Dust.
Wang Chen couldn’t help but ask, “How long have I been missing?”
