Great God Heaven's Vast Hoard of Treasures

Great God Heaven—Vast Hoard of Treasures

"Of course. I followed my master for countless ages. If he hadn't failed in his Dao Seizure, he wouldn't have left me behind alone." As Leaping Eclipse Monkey spoke of this, although he had been refined into a puppet lifeform, memories of his master still made him feel sorrowful because of the settings of his life.

He continued,

"During the time I followed my master, we roamed nearly everywhere within the Ten Great Sky Regions in every Annihilation Epoch. Later, because things became too boring, I drifted with my master through countless places. We also wandered for ages through the desolate regions beyond the Ten Great Sky Regions."

"I've been to far too many places. Beyond the Ten Great Sky Regions are barren, lifeless regions, but they also contain all sorts of miraculous places. I've seen far too many things."

"As long as you go far enough from the Ten Great Sky Regions and far enough from the Three Great Dao Domains, even Leading Heaven Emperor Lord and the Three Apex Realms won't be able to find you."

"Besides, there won't be any lifeforms there to interfere with your Dao Seizure. If you're worried, you can simply set up some formations outside to isolate the area." As Leaping Eclipse Monkey introduced these places, countless memories seemed to flash through his eyes.

Upon hearing this, Luo Feng secretly nodded.

With the Dark Realm, he was essentially like those fellows from the Dao Domains. He could evade the Great Destruction and possess an endless lifespan. Moreover, the Dark Realm could rapidly travel through Primordial Chaos Space, allowing it to reach far too many places. The places Luo Feng had visited were probably not even a tenth of what Leaping Eclipse had seen.

That meant he basically no longer needed to worry about where to carry out his Dao Seizure.

What could the Three Apex Realms do even if they thought of searching far beyond the Ten Great Sky Regions? He was an Emperor Dao Practitioner, completely absent from their deduction sequences. Finding him would be harder than finding a needle in the sea.

"This time, since you chose to help me, I'll thank you in advance." Luo Feng smiled at the old monkey, and he had developed some goodwill toward this puppet lifeform.

That banana, the Dark Soul Stone, had not been used, but the thought behind it alone had already helped Luo Feng.

Also, his true body on the Nine Nether Earth needed the Dark Realm to transmit information. Without it, he simply could not have done so.

It could be said that the Dark Realm deserved credit for more than half of everything he had.

"I'm merely a puppet lifeform. To me, my past memories are the most important. As for the future, I only possess some simple logic. You thank me, but all I can say is that I have my own purpose. I want to see a being born who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Leading Heaven Emperor Lord, and I want that birth to be connected to me." Leaping Eclipse Monkey remained as direct as ever.

Luo Feng understood. Leaping Eclipse Monkey's feelings were probably nothing more than self-satisfaction.

Just like when they had entered Leaping Eclipse Palace, when they had been toyed with by this fellow. It was probably all for some twisted psychological satisfaction.

What would it matter even if he succeeded in taking part? He could only fantasize to himself and couldn't brag about it to anyone else... So in Luo Feng's eyes, this monkey was still somewhat perverse and greatly enjoyed entertaining himself.

Still, Luo Feng did not need to say anything. In any case, this monkey was helping him.

"Here. There are more than enough items for Dao Seizure. Take a look and see what else you need. Pick whatever you want. Take as much as you need." Like a wealthy tycoon, Leaping Eclipse Monkey waved a hand, and treasures appeared one after another on the table, nearly all of them related to Dao Seizure.

Luo Feng glanced over them. There were already more than a hundred items.

He had to admire Black Emperor's ability to collect treasures. Over such a long time, the accumulated number had reached a terrifying level.

What a filthy rich bastard.

Black Emperor was only in the God Heaven Realm and did not need to consume vast amounts of treasure like a Great God Heaven. After accumulating wealth day after day, he probably possessed not only these Dao Seizure treasures, but also a vast hoard of other treasures.

"My master lived for far too long. Before he dared to attempt Dao Seizure, he had no particular hobbies. One of his greatest pleasures was collecting treasures throughout the world. During the days I followed him, we fought over treasures together. Those days were truly carefree. Unfortunately, that time will never return... That was why my master was the wealthiest existence among God Heaven Realm cultivators. Even those powerful Great God Heavens were probably not as wealthy as him."

"Unfortunately, even with so many items for Dao Seizure, Master still failed." Leaping Eclipse spoke with lingering sorrow.

Yet when it came to treasures, the way he spoke made it seem like it was nothing at all. He was simply extravagant.

Other than Leading Heaven Emperor Lord and the Three Apex Realms, it was nearly impossible for ordinary Great God Heavens to find his Dark Realm. And those lofty beings naturally would not act against a minor Black Emperor, which was why this Dark Realm had survived.

Listening to this, Luo Feng's heart stirred. Just how many treasures were hidden within the Dark Realm controlled by Leaping Eclipse?

Although Luo Feng did not know the exact number, he was genuinely tempted now.

After my Dao Seizure, I'll see whether I can get Leaping Eclipse to help me and bring out all his treasures. There must be even more than in Primordial Chaos Heaven. Luo Feng thought to himself as his gaze turned toward the more than one hundred Dao Seizure items floating in the air—

As his eyes swept over them, Luo Feng's eyelids twitched. There was even a supreme treasure like a Heart Soul Fruit among them!

Taihun Island Master had once given him a Heart Soul Fruit. It was an incomparably precious item, yet there was one here in Black Emperor's Dark Realm as well.

Just how many treasures had Black Emperor hidden away?

The Heart Soul Fruit was one of the treasures useful against the Dao Heart Tribulation. Aside from it, there were many other items aimed at the Dao Heart Tribulation, as well as the Dao Body Tribulation. For example, the Dao Tribulation Heart Spring, which had an effect similar to the Dao Proving Nine Tribulation Flower on the Nine Nether Earth, could help resist the Flame Power of the Dao Body Tribulation.

There was also the Ten Thousand Daos Purple-Gold Fruit, which was similarly used to resist the Dao Body Tribulation. Qi Zheng had once obtained one at the Red Capital Auction.

There was also the Devouring Dao Lotus Heart for the third Dao Seizure tribulation. It could be used during the third tribulation to instantly create an illusory substitute body and help resist the Heaven and Earth Tribulation.

There were many kinds of treasures here, whether for the Dao Heart Tribulation, Dao Body Tribulation, or Heaven and Earth Tribulation.

There were simply too many treasures of every sort.

However, despite Black Emperor possessing so many Dao Seizure treasures, he had ultimately still failed in his Dao Seizure. Perhaps the greater reason lay in his Dao Heart. Over the endless years, Black Emperor had never been able to bring his Eternal Dao to the complete perfection of rules. The longer time passed, the less chance he naturally had.

In Dao Seizure, external objects were merely aids. More depended on oneself.

Black Emperor had not brought his Eternal Dao to perfection, and he had only attempted Dao Seizure because he had lived too long and become weary of life. That alone foreshadowed his failure.

Those who could succeed in Dao Seizure either had long surpassed the complete perfection of Eternal Dao and constructed part of it, possessing absolute confidence, or they were extraordinarily talented and could achieve breakthroughs during the Dao Seizure process. Outside of those two cases, it was basically a matter of probability. Out of a hundred thousand, not even one would likely succeed.

"I'll choose these ten." Luo Feng selected ten items: four for the Dao Heart Tribulation, five for the Dao Body Tribulation, and one for the Heaven and Earth Tribulation. One of them was a Heart Soul Fruit.

The main reason he chose so many was that there were indeed enough here. Furthermore, he would pretend that he could use them repeatedly. The remaining ones could later be given to lifeforms in Primordial Chaos Heaven.

He did not dare take too many, mainly because he could not be too greedy. If he took too much, he did not know whether Leaping Eclipse would be dissatisfied.

When you take from others, you owe them. He could not go overboard.

"Are ten enough? I suggest taking more. My master still failed even after using so many. These ten are probably not enough. There are so many here—take more, and your chances will be greater." Leaping Eclipse looked at Luo Feng. In his view, the more one took and used, the higher the probability of succeeding in Dao Seizure.

Luo Feng's Emperor Way was more difficult than an ordinary Dao. Taking more would provide greater assurance.

This Emperor Way could stand shoulder to shoulder with Leading Heaven Emperor Lord. Naturally, he hoped Luo Feng would succeed, so he still felt that Luo Feng should take more.

Luo Feng blinked, then immediately nodded. "For me, the most difficult part should be the Dao Heart Tribulation, so I took several more items for that. But you're right. These ten might not be enough, so I'll take a little more."

Since Leaping Eclipse Monkey had said so, why should he stand on ceremony?

In any case, leaving them here would be useless. Since he could take them, he might as well take them all. Looking at Leaping Eclipse Monkey, he shamelessly said, "How about giving all of these to me? Just in case I need them later."

Even Luo Feng felt somewhat guilty asking that, but to his surprise, Leaping Eclipse agreed immediately. "No problem. These treasures will just remain here otherwise. With the game my master set up, it won't be easy for those other fellows to obtain them. Besides, Master has other treasures. This is nothing."

Luo Feng could not help smiling. "Then I'll thank Leaping Eclipse Monkey, and Black Emperor as well." He immediately stored away this entire batch of treasures.

That phrase, "This is nothing," made Luo Feng realize that there were probably many treasures in this Dark Realm.

Black Emperor had specifically searched for treasures for endless ages. It would be strange if he did not have a great many of them.

Of these hundred-plus Dao Seizure items, Luo Feng estimated that he would only use a few. Later, they would mainly be given to God Heaven Realm cultivators in Primordial Chaos Heaven who had the potential to attempt Dao Seizure.

Moreover, some of these treasures were not merely Dao Seizure items and had other uses as well. For example, apart from helping with Dao Seizure, the Heart Soul Fruit could also repair the soul. Of the hundred-plus treasures, more than half could repair souls, while some could even nurture avatar bodies. Their uses were far from minor.

Even if he did not give all of them to God Heaven Realm cultivators in Primordial Chaos Heaven for Dao Seizure, it would be completely possible to give some to the human race or his brothers in Dao Peak City.

"Ah, what are you thanking me for? Just make sure you surpass Leading Heaven Emperor Lord when the time comes. If two Great God Heavens of the Emperor Way can fight each other, that would probably be quite interesting." Leaping Eclipse remained as blunt as ever.

Luo Feng was speechless.

Still, it was true. After he succeeded in Dao Seizure, a battle with Leading Heaven Emperor Lord would probably be unavoidable. Leading Heaven Emperor Lord himself had said that Luo Feng was his opponent.

The Dark Realm rapidly traveled through the Space Power deep within the Space Interlayer. After entering even deeper layers of the Space Interlayer, its speed was even more terrifying than Luo Feng's at full strength. It ignored everything entirely. Wherever Space Power fluctuated, it could advance at near-teleportation speed.

"Oh, right. In the world within Black Emperor Palace, I have a disciple. I wonder if she can appear in the outside world?" Luo Feng thought of Zi Xiao, the young disciple he had accepted in the Mortal Realm. She had now reached the Primordial Chaos Realm, but because of the suppression of the world's power there, she had never been able to break through to a higher realm.

"You mean that little girl? Of course she can. After you complete your Dao Seizure, I'll let you take her away." Leaping Eclipse said with a smile.

The Dark Realm was also heading away from the Three Great Dao Domains, advancing toward the barren deep void beyond the influence of the Ten Great Sky Regions.
