Call!

A black ring was thrown from Bai Ze's hand and flew directly towards Lin Yan, hovering in front of him.

Lin Yan took a deep breath. The gains from this opportunity had exceeded his expectations, and he wondered what the remaining wealth would be.

He immediately reached out and took the ring. Since the Spiritual Imprint left by the previous owner had long since dissipated, Lin Yan easily imprinted his own Spiritual Imprint on it.

"A decent World Ring, comparable to the Star Tear Gold Ring that I specially commissioned the Virtual Universe Company to refine. Wearing it, even if attacked by Universe Venerable, the World Ring will not be damaged unless deliberately attacked." Lin Yan nodded to himself.

There are two ways to destroy the World Ring.

One approach is to directly destroy A World inside from the inside; this is quite easy.

Secondly, it involves damaging the ring's material itself, which is the core that carries A World within it. The difficulty of damaging it naturally depends on the materials used in the ring.

"What exactly is it?" Lin Yan's mental energy penetrated in and began to investigate.

Wow!

The A World hidden within this ring is vast and boundless, with towering metal mountains, lakes formed from countless rare liquids, and A-class to E-class spaceships... densely packed like countless locusts.

It is obvious—

This place contains all sorts of treasures for cultivators at the World Master, domain, Cosmic level, Stellar level, and Planetary levels. Although many items are very cheap, there are so many of them that they fill this A World.

"This should be prepared to cultivate the Mountain Sea Realm lineage," Lin Yan thought to himself. "With this large amount of treasure, plus the Intelligent life form Bai Ze, as long as a suitable candidate appears in the Mountain Sea Realm, even if the situation is bad, it can rise up quickly."

Just like the human race, it needed pillars of strength such as the Great Axe Founder and the Chaos City Lord to become the current peak race.

During the reign of King Zhenyu, the Mountain Sea Realm had its glorious period, but it was extremely difficult to produce another immortal. He also knew that once he fell, the Mountain Sea Realm would inevitably decline.

Relying on Intelligent life form or Plant Lifeform is not enough. Even if you cultivate Plant Lifeform at the Peak Feng Wang, a single sweep of the Void Divine Power will kill the master, and the Plant Lifeform will not be able to survive.

King Zhenyu made these arrangements in advance to wait for talented successors, those with the potential to become Immortal God, who would then be considered "candidates" for Bai Ze to nurture.

Those with the potential to ascend to the Feng Wang Immortal God can naturally become "successors".

Lin Yan's heart stirred.

This was merely a preparation made in advance by King Zhenyu for the future generations of the Mountain Sea Realm lineage. On the other side of this A World, there were other, even more precious items.

His mental power swept across the area swiftly.

After all, King Zhenyu had spent many years mingling in the Outer Domain Battlefield, killing powerful Alien Race, so the treasures in his World Ring were indeed diverse.

Some of them were treasures he purchased through the Human Faction's military merit exchange system.

Some of them were spoils of war that he obtained after killing powerful Alien Race warriors, but did not dispose of, such as armor, weapons, and so on.

And some... are simply related to his own incredible luck.

As a powerful being comparable to the Feng Wang Limit, and with various amazing encounters, the wealth accumulated by King Zhenyu is undeniably vast.

Lin Yan didn't look at it too closely, he just did a quick search to determine which items were included. As for confirming their value, that would require the Virtual Universe Network, which wouldn't be a matter of a short time.

At this moment—

Bai Ze said, "These resources and treasures for the cultivation of future generations of the clan were all prepared in advance by the master. After all, even if we leave money, there may not be suitable channels to obtain these resources. Overall, they add up to an enormous amount of wealth, worth nearly 10 billion Hun Yuan Unit!"

"The master instructed that nurturing offspring is the most important thing, because it represents the future of the Mountain Sea Realm lineage. Considering that it may take hundreds of millions of years for the Mountain Sea Realm lineage to rise, it must be used cautiously and the output must be controlled."

"I also possess a large number of secret techniques collected by the Mountain Sea Realm back then. Combining the two will be able to promote the rapid development of the Earth!"

"These were originally entrusted to me by the original owner, but considering your special circumstances, Lin Yan, and the limited resources Earth currently needs, I will not refuse if you intend to convert these resources into money first."

His voice was impassioned. "After all, as long as you become strong, the Earth will surely prosper!"

Lin Yan nodded.

"It's hard to say right now, but I will if needed."

If I were to truly reach the second level of the "Black Hole Sacred Body" or delve deeper into the "Golden Framework," the gap in points would be significant, and I might need to dispose of these resources and treasures as an emergency measure.

King Zhenyu was considering billions of years, but with Lin Yan, Luo Feng, and others around, Earth wouldn't need that long to rise to power.

Bai Ze didn't care about this either.

If they were merely ordinary candidates or successors, they would naturally not be allowed to make such a move. However, given Lin Yan's talent and status, becoming Universe Venerable in the future would be a piece of cake for him, so Bai Ze certainly didn't care.

If King Zhenyu hadn't encountered the Star Tower recognizing him as its master, his future would have been limitless, so why would he have bothered with these methods?

Bai Ze continued, "As for the other treasures, they are even more valuable. They are all extremely precious to Immortal God. The most precious of them is the 'Heavenly Heart Armor,' which the master obtained from a Peak Feng Wang expert!"

"It is valued at 50 billion Hun Yuan Unit within the Hong Alliance, even exceeding the value of the 'Nine Absolute Divine Kingdom,' and can withstand 50% of Material Attack!"

Heavenly Heart Armor?

Upon hearing this, Lin Yan immediately thought of his Top-tier Supreme Treasure, the "Black Phoenix Armor."

Anything produced by the Chaos City Lord is bound to be of high quality. However, even if Lin Yan refines this top-tier Heavy Treasure Armor, he is not yet able to use it.

Unlike the "Void Wings," which requires a very high level of Law Comprehension, the Black Phoenix Armor places more emphasis on the strength of the divine body, requiring extremely strong divine power to activate.

The Black Phoenix Armor has two forms!

The first form requires 1 million times the World Lord Power to activate. Once activated, it can withstand Material Attack that have been weakened to one percent of their original strength, and Soul Attack that have been weakened to one-tenth of their original strength.

The second form requires 100 million times the World Lord Power to activate. Once activated, it weakens Material Attack to one-thousandth of their original power Soul Attack to one-tenth of their original power!

With both Material Defense and Soul Defense capabilities, it can truly be considered a Top-tier Supreme Treasure.

Given these difficult conditions, the Chaos City Lord must have prepared this for the Green Line Devouring Worm, a World Lord level, as a trump card to protect Lin Yan.

As for Lin Yan himself, he'll have to figure it out himself.

"Lin Yan, have you seen a black crystal ball?" Bai Ze reminded him.

Lin Yan nodded.

With a flick of his wrist, a black crystal sphere appeared in his hand. On the surface, it looked ordinary, but a chilling energy fluctuation emanated from the sphere, revealing its special nature.

"This must be the Fire God Origin Crystal?" Lin Yan asked, looking at the black crystal sphere in his hand.

The Fire God Origin Crystal a type of technological weapon used by the Mechanical race. It compresses a large amount of Immortal Divine Power into a single crystal sphere and then detonates it instantly, causing countless Immortal Divine Power to explode, similar to the effect of an Immortal God Self-destruct.

The principle is simple, but the technological content is extremely high.

After all, to compress such astonishing flames and Immortal Divine Power continuously into "Immortal Crystal," and then further compress them into "Origin Crystal" with a concentration tens of millions of times stronger, the technology required would be far too advanced.

Even the lowest-grade Fire God Origin Crystal costs millions of Hun Yuan Unit, comparable to the Self-destruct of an ordinary Flame Immortal God.

"Yes, during that incident involving the precious War Blade, the master was chased by many powerful Alien Race races and managed to escape with great difficulty."

Bai Ze looked at Lin Yan and explained, "It was because of this experience that Master made a tough decision and spent all his wealth to buy this A-812 Fire God Origin Crystal. This is an extremely high-end product among Fire God Origin Crystal, equivalent to three times the power of Peak Feng Wang expert's Self-destruct!"

"A-812?" Lin Yan's heart skipped a beat upon hearing this.

The higher the power of the Fire God Origin Crystal, the higher its price.

Even with Lin Yan's privileges, purchasing such a high-end Fire God Origin Crystal would cost 12 billion points, and the price King Zhenyu would likely pay would be even higher.

Such a vast fortune could bankrupt even King level Immortal. With such wealth, many powerful individuals would rather buy treasures to enhance their strength or purchase powerful weapons.

Only a minority are determined to purchase a Fire God Origin Crystal.

However, King Zhenyu has no shortage of treasures or weapons; what he lacks most is a trump card that can deliver the final blow.

"Fortunately, we have this Fire God Origin Crystal. When the master encountered life-or-death crises several times, he directly took out this Fire God Origin Crystal to intimidate his opponents and escaped several calamities."

"Lin Yan, I'm entrusting this Fire God Origin Crystal to you. You can sell it or use it as a trump card, but if you use it, you will also suffer the consequences. You must be careful about this."

"Mm." Lin Yan nodded.

When the Fire God Origin Crystal detonates, it naturally doesn't distinguish between friend and foe. With Lin Yan's strength, it would simply vanish into thin air.

However, he did not intend to exchange for points. These points would be a very effective trump card for Lin Yan after he reached the World Lord level, and would be very valuable.

Bai Ze said, "These are the only types of treasures that exceed 10 billion Hun Yuan Unit. You can research the others yourself."

After a moment's thought, Lin Yan asked, "Bai Ze, there's something I'm wondering about."

"Hmm?" Bai Ze looked at him and replied, "Go ahead and say it."

"Senior King Zhenyu, you possess two Supreme Treasure, surely you don't even have a single important treasure?" Lin Yan asked, expressing his confusion.

If it were someone else, Lin Yan would naturally not have asked such a question.

Treasures are generally possessed by Universe Venerable. Every powerful being who can be called Invincible Feng Wang has a treasure to protect them, but among the Peak Feng Wang Expert... those who possess such treasures are extremely rare.

If King Zhenyu were to fight head-on, he could fight against Peak Feng Wang Expert in his unburned Burning Divine Body state. With some tricks and abilities, he could at most barely compare to Peak Feng Wang Expert.

It's only natural that there are no valuable treasures.

However... Lin Yan is now somewhat superstitious about the luck and fortuitous encounters of the King Zhenyu.

Since they were able to obtain two Supreme Treasure, perhaps that encounter also yielded other great treasures. If they were able to obtain a powerful War Blade from a Peak Feng Hou Immortal God, there might be other opportunities to obtain great treasures as well.

This is not because he is greedy for profit.

The questions that need to be asked should always be asked.

"Treasures are not so easy to obtain..." Bai Ze probably guessed Lin Yan's thoughts, but considering his master's luck, it was normal for Lin Yan to have such doubts.

He said, "Master did have a treasured pair of war boots back then, but this treasure was left to his family, along with some of his money and property. Master took them with him and settled them in another Universe Country. You shouldn't think about these things."

Lin Yan shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Yes, there really is!

Billions of years have passed, and perhaps Lin Yan could find some information through the intelligence department of the Virtual Universe Company, but he has no such intention.

He was merely curious and puzzled; it was impossible for him to repay kindness with enmity for a valuable pair of war boots.

After returning to Earth.

Lin Yan temporarily settled Bai Ze on Earth.

In fact, when Lin Yan was formulating the Underground Cave Plan, he intentionally made Earthling believe that it was a remnant from the Mountain Sea Realm era. Now that he has obtained a large amount of resources and secret techniques from the Mountain Sea Realm lineage, Bai Ze can make some modifications.

Lin Yan ultimately couldn't afford to expend much energy on such matters.

He himself began to study the value of the treasures left behind by King Zhenyu, and finally confirmed it through the Virtual Universe Network.

King Zhenyu's wealth is around 140 billion Hun Yuan Unit, not including his Supreme Treasure and a King Rank Intelligent life form.

"Normally, Peak Feng Wang Expert would have around a few hundred billion Hun Yuan Unit of wealth, but King Zhenyu, who is actually just a World Master, has 140 billion Hun Yuan Unit of wealth, as well as two priceless Supreme Treasure!"

Lin Yan sighed inwardly, "Such a powerful person with extraordinary encounters is truly extraordinary."

This is still only what he received!

If King Zhenyu can leave a precious treasure to his relatives, his own family will probably also leave behind a lot of wealth, such as money. King Zhenyu's account only has 1 billion Hun Yuan Unit money that can be inherited.

Lin Yan was already quite satisfied with this.

If they weren't from the same lineage, and if King Zhenyu hadn't made the deliberate arrangements, it would have been almost impossible for him to obtain these treasures after hundreds of billions of years.

"There's no rush to get rid of these items," Lin Yan thought to himself. "I'm not too short of money right now, and the resources and treasures won't depreciate if I keep them."

"Moreover, I can use many of these treasures myself."

His heart stirred.

A pale Golden Battle Armor floated in front of Lin Yan.

The cold gleam of the metal armor revealed a unique kind of noble beauty, exuding a restrained elegance.

As Lin Yan began to imprint his Spiritual Imprint on it, the Golden Battle Armor immediately emitted endless Divine Radiance.

"Heavenly Heart Armor..."

"Reducing the attack by 50%, yet worth 50 billion Hun Yuan Unit, indicates that this armor has a very high tolerance. Even when facing an attack comparable to that of Universe Venerable, it remains undamaged and resists 50% of the attack's power." Lin Yan smiled and said, "In that case, it's not bad."

"Use it for now, and we'll deal with the real treasure when we have another chance in the future."

Even the Supreme Treasure Armor will have its weakening effect reduced, or even fail to weaken if the attack exceeds its tolerance, and may even shatter itself.

The Yongluo Armor that Lin Yan used before was only worth 800,000 Hun Yuan Unit. Generally, its effect becomes increasingly limited for those above the initial level of the Marquis rank. If it were to withstand a blow from Feng Wang expert, it would shatter directly and naturally need to be discarded.

The "Heavenly Heart Armor" is different; it is extremely hard and even Universe Venerable would find it difficult to destroy, and it can also reduce the attack power by 50%.

Of course, it's completely different from the "Black Phoenix Armor".

Weakening it by 50% only makes it twice as strong as before, while the first form of the Black Phoenix Armor can be weakened to only 1%, which means it can be 100 times stronger than before!

However, it seems like Lin Yan himself has no chance of getting his hands on the Black Phoenix Armor.

Below the level of a top-tier treasure, this "Heavenly Heart Armor" is already an excellent suit of armor. Combined with the armor transformed from Plant Lifeform, its defensive strength is also very high.

Lin Yan continued searching among the treasures he had acquired.

After all, the Green Line Devouring Worm could also find suitable armor and weapons among those treasures to improve their combat power.

As he was thinking, he suddenly realized something.

A moment later.

"Ding-a-ling!" The clear sound of wind chimes rang out in the cultivation chamber.

Wow!

The door to the secret room opened instantly.

Lin Yan slowly stood up, looking at the young figure who walked in, a hint of a smile in his eyes.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

Lin Xiao was silent for a moment, then raised his head, his gaze becoming even more resolute. "Dad, there's something I'd like to ask for your permission to do."
