"Things are truly random here. But powerful treasures have most likely been touched by immortals, and there are probably one or two immortals guarding them. Is that what you mean?" Jiufang Yu asked. His words made Bei Hu Ao and Gu Long Jun knit their brows tightly, and they immediately lost the nerve to try.
"Precisely. But there's no need to be so surprised. Nothing will go wrong if you come here to look at treasures, so long as you don't covet the supreme treasures here. Of course, if you happen to find one you really like, you can always gamble on it. Maybe you'll even be able to take it home with you. More importantly, once a treasure reaches a certain level of strength, it will automatically sink one level lower. At least, among the treasures here, I haven't seen a single one guarded by more than one spirit guardian." Shengtu Yu smiled.
"If a treasure has no pattern, how do you deal with it? And what happens when it has a one-on-one spirit guardian?" Jiufang Yu asked.
"On this first level, you can take away most treasures by unraveling the rune patterns they contain. But if a treasure has a spirit guardian, you must defeat that guardian before you can take it." Shengtu Yu smiled bitterly.
"I see. When a treasure sinks automatically, does its quality change?" Jiufang Yu asked curiously.
"Not by much, I'd say... Though there are exceptions. It depends on how well the treasure and its spirit guardian complement each other. After all, once you defeat those patterns, the spirit guardian's patterns basically disappear as well. So a treasure with a spirit guardian is equivalent to having gained its own consciousness. Either the bond between the guardian and the treasure becomes stronger, or they cooperate
