Treasure Pavilion

Before long, the two arrived at the edge of a cliff.

"Senior, what kind of stone is this? It's so strange."

Ye Tian looked at the stone embedded in the cliff wall, covered in Formation Patterns. It looked like jade, yet it was not truly jade.

"This is a Space Stone," Jin Yan explained.

"A Space Stone? Then what material was the Chaos Tower forged from? Could it have been Space Stone as well?"

Upon hearing of such a rare material as Space Stone, Ye Tian immediately thought of the Storage Stones used to forge Rings of Holding on the Dou Qi Continent.

"That's right. The Chaos Tower was forged by him back then using Space Stone mixed with various divine metals, then refined with the Mustard Seed into a Sumeru Technique."

"Space Stone is similar to the Storage Stone of the Dou Qi Continent, but its grade is much higher."

Jin Yan slowly explained the wondrous uses of Space Stone, broadening Ye Tian's horizons.

"Mustard Seed Space Technique?"

As for the Mustard Seed into a Sumeru Technique, Ye Tian had read many cultivation novels in his previous life and knew it was a supernatural power of immortal cultivators. However, the Dou Qi Continent had no such supernatural power. Cultivators there only needed a material called Storage Stone to forge Rings of Holding.

"This supernatural power is also kept in the Treasure Pavilion. You can cultivate it once you become stronger."

"Hurry and summon the Chaos Heavenly Flame within your body. Send it into the Formation Patterns on the Space Stone wall. From now on, whenever you want to enter, just activate the Formation this way."

Jin Yan urged Ye Tian to open the Treasure Pavilion quickly and stop overthinking.

"Alright!"

"Whoosh..."

Ye Tian hurriedly summoned the Heavenly Flame with his mind. In an instant, a golden flame appeared upon his fingertip.

"Swish..."

Ye Tian then sent the golden flame into the Formation Patterns on the Space Stone wall.

"Buzz..."

In an instant, the Formation on the Space Stone wall activated, radiating golden light. Then, a glittering golden teleportation gate appeared.

"Go in!"

Seeing this, Jin Yan hurriedly told Ye Tian to enter the teleportation gate.

"Swish..."

With a flash of golden light, Ye Tian arrived in a Small World filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.

"I never expected there to be such a hidden world inside!"

Ye Tian looked around the Small World. It was roughly several li in diameter, and at its center stood an ancient eight-sided tower. The Pavilion was built from jade, over a hundred meters tall, and exuded an ancient, timeless charm.

"This is the Treasure Pavilion. It contains cultivation methods, scriptures, skills, and more from many worlds. There are also countless peerless divine weapons, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, rare divine metals, and all sorts of other treasures."

Jin Yan explained with a smile, letting the Little Fellow understand what true wealth looked like.

"This is practically a super treasury!"

Looking at the treasure tower ahead, Ye Tian felt as though he had become rich overnight. He immediately rushed inside to investigate.

"Take your time looking. If you need anything, just call for me."

Seeing Ye Tian's delighted expression, Jin Yan left with a smile, letting the Little Fellow study the place at leisure.

After entering the treasure tower, Ye Tian saw dazzling arrays of treasures, cultivation methods, and more, all neatly arranged on jade shelves. He felt as though he had entered a museum.

"Nine Heavens Starry Sky Art. Upon reaching great mastery, one may draw upon the power of the stars for one's own use..."

"Heavenly Charm Divine Art. Suitable for women to cultivate..."

"True Dragon Emperor Art, the ultimate art of the ancient Dragon Emperor... Wind Cloud Divine Art... Nine Heavens Profound Lady Art... Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Art... Nine Nether Cold Ice Art... Myriad Poisons Primordial True Art..."

"Heaven Suppressing Pagoda Art... One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones... Universe Soul Forging Art... Eternal Heavenly Thunder Technique... Heaven Slaying Sword Art... Carefree Dragon Step... Hundred Meridians Body Forging Art... Pill Dao Sacred Canon... Formation Array Sacred Canon... Puppet Secret Records... Complete Collection of Spirit Herbs and Immortal Grasses..."

Ye Tian picked up the Jade Slips from the shelves one by one and used his soul to examine the various cultivation methods within. He found that all of them were high-grade goods. Most came from the Great Thousand World, while others were supreme arts from different worlds. They must have been acquired by Senior Ye Yun while exploring the Myriad Worlds.

Looking at these cultivation methods and ultimate arts, Ye Tian felt that this Treasure Pavilion was simply a super library.

"Eh! Heaven Burning Creation Art? Could this be...?"

At that moment, Ye Tian saw a Divine Technique called the Heaven Burning Creation Art. It seemed similar to the Burning Art cultivated by Xiao Yan. It was truly interesting.

This Heaven Burning Creation Art also required absorbing flames to cultivate, but its grade was much higher and seemed more perfect than the Burning Art. Thinking of this, Ye Tian guessed that the Burning Art might very well have been the prototype of the Heaven Burning Creation Art. After all, every time Xiao Yan devoured a Heavenly Flame, he nearly killed himself.

Of course, this was only Ye Tian's speculation. Whether the Burning Art was connected to the Heaven Burning Creation Art was still unknown. After all, the Burning Art originally had no name; it was simply one Yao Chen had casually given it.

"Critical Strike Secret Technique! I obtained this secret technique by chance in the Desolate God Realm. Once activated, it can instantly increase one's strength tenfold. It is extremely useful in battle."

"Holy shit! Holy shit..."

When Ye Tian examined this Critical Strike Secret Technique, he immediately thought of the "Jie" secret art from a certain world.

It took Ye Tian several days to finish reading all the Jade Slips. During that time, he only discovered five Dou Techniques, all Heaven-tier Dou Techniques left behind by Dou Emperor experts of the ancient era. They were Myriad Blades Unite, Primordial Spirit Slash, Instant Shadow Triple Slash, Imperial Heaven Shocking Thunder Break, and Nine Heavens Thunder Kill.

There was not a single Dou Technique below the Heaven Tier. With Ye Tian's current strength, he simply could not cultivate these powerful Dou Techniques. It seemed he would need to find some Black-tier Dou Techniques to make do with after leaving. Once he grew stronger, he could cultivate these Heaven-tier Dou Techniques.

However, several cultivation methods from other worlds could be cultivated. For example, the Eternal Heavenly Thunder Technique, Carefree Dragon Step, Heaven Slaying Sword Art, Universe Soul Forging Art, and Hundred Meridians Body Forging Art. Unlike the Dou Techniques of the Dou Qi Continent, these cultivation methods did not rely purely on Dou Qi to be used. Even when one's strength was low, they could still be employed, though their power would be somewhat weaker. Ye Tian planned to cultivate these first.

In addition, Ye Tian also intended to try that Critical Strike Secret Technique. He did not know whether it could be cultivated in this world, but it probably could. After all, all paths ultimately led to the same source.

Aside from these, Ye Tian also discovered three Flying Dou Techniques: Golden Light Wings, Cloud Chasing Wings, and Illusionary Rainbow Wings.

Ye Tian's strength was still too low for him to fly. If he possessed a Flying Dou Technique, he could escape quickly even if he encountered danger.

"Golden Light Wings, crafted using a Tier 7 Magic Beast Golden Eagle..."

"Cloud Chasing Wings, crafted using a Tier 7 Magic Beast Cloud Chasing Crane..."

"Illusionary Rainbow Wings, crafted using a Tier 7 Magic Beast Illusionary Rainbow Butterfly..."

Ye Tian used his soul to examine the information within the three Flying Dou Techniques and found that all of them had been made from high-level Magic Beasts. However, the Soul Consciousnesses of those Magic Beasts seemed to have been erased, and they emitted none of the ferocious aura that distinguished them from the Purple Cloud Wings Xiao Yan had obtained in the Monster Mountain Range.

Thinking about it, Xiao Yan's Flying Dou Technique seemed to have been made by only a Dou Wang expert, and it was somewhat crude. It simply could not compare with the Flying Dou Techniques forged by those super experts of the ancient era.

Ye Tian decided to cultivate the Golden Light Wings. Golden Eagles were exceptionally powerful Magic Beasts, so a Flying Dou Technique made from their wings was surely excellent.

"Buzz..."

As Dou Qi flowed into the scroll, the pair of palm-sized golden wing patterns transformed into a streak of golden light and surged into Ye Tian's body.

"Chirp..."

In an instant, a Golden Eagle over ten meters long appeared within Ye Tian's Soul Consciousness. It spread its enormous wings and soared straight into the Nine Heavens, its majestic bearing incomparably spectacular.

"Hiss..."

Immediately afterward, Ye Tian felt as though someone had slashed his back with a blade. The pain was excruciating. He then looked within his body with his Soul Consciousness and saw two branch meridians emerging along his back, weaving dense golden patterns that formed two palm-sized golden wings. They clung to his back like tattoos. The entire process lasted several minutes before the pain finally faded.

"Puff..."

Seeing this, Ye Tian hurriedly activated the Golden Light Wings with Dou Qi. A pair of golden wings nearly two meters wide emerged from his back and slowly lifted him into the air.

"Swish, swish..."

"Not bad! Really not bad!"

Ye Tian then left the Treasure Pavilion and activated the Golden Light Wings to begin flying, determined to master this Flying Dou Technique as quickly as possible.

After spending more than half a day on it, Ye Tian could finally use the Golden Light Wings as he pleased. He then returned to the Treasure Pavilion, intending to find a weapon.

There were over a hundred weapons within the Treasure Pavilion, each radiating a divine aura. At a glance, they were clearly divine weapons and precious artifacts.

"Great Cang Divine Sword! This one."

When Ye Tian reached the middle level of the treasure tower, he saw an ancient, unadorned longsword resting on a jade shelf. He was instantly overjoyed. Cultivating with this divine weapon alongside the Heaven Slaying Sword Art should be quite good.

"Eh! Thunder Spirit Stone? It contains Lightning Attribute power. It should work well with the Eternal Heavenly Thunder Technique..."

After choosing his weapon, Ye Tian took several other treasures before leaving the Treasure Pavilion's Small World. He placed several Divine Techniques inside the Pavilion in the Lake on the first floor of the Chaos Tower.

Ye Tian did not dare keep these Super Divine Skills inside his Ring of Holding. After all, the world outside was far too dangerous.

After settling everything, Ye Tian went to the distant lake, caught several fish, and made himself a meal of grilled fish.

"Senior Jin, would you like some?"

Ye Tian did not know whether that senior had any interest in mortal food, so he directly called out toward the sky.

"No need. I'm not human, so I have no need to eat."

"Which cultivation methods did you choose? Let me see."

As soon as the words fell, a streak of golden light flashed by, and Jin Yan appeared before Ye Tian.

"For now, I chose..."

Ye Tian listed the Hundred Meridians Body Forging Art, Universe Soul Forging Art, Pill Dao Sacred Canon, Eternal Heavenly Thunder Technique, Heaven Slaying Sword Art, Carefree Dragon Step, and the Critical Strike Secret Technique, asking this great expert for advice.

"You really know how to choose, kid."

Listening to Ye Tian's selected cultivation methods, Jin Yan understood the Little Fellow's path of cultivation.

"Senior, can you modify Yellow-tier Intermediate Dou Techniques into Black-tier or Earth-tier ones? The three Dou Techniques I'm cultivating are too low-grade. As for those Heaven-tier Dou Techniques in the Treasure Pavilion, I can't cultivate them yet with my current strength."

Ye Tian recalled that Jin Yan had traveled through many worlds with Senior Ye Yun and possessed immense knowledge, so he wanted Jin Yan to help upgrade his Dou Techniques.

"No problem. I'll help you upgrade the Dou Techniques. I'll also upgrade the three Yellow-tier cultivation methods you mentioned earlier."

Jin Yan nodded. Upgrading a few low-grade cultivation methods was child's play to her.

Seeing this, Ye Tian quickly took out the Yellow-tier cultivation method scrolls for the Wind Travel Art, Green Wood Art, and Crimson Flame Art, along with the Dou Technique scrolls, and handed them to Jin Yan.

"Swish..."

Jin Yan took the three Yellow-tier cultivation method scrolls, examined them carefully, then directly used her finger to inscribe several characters onto them.

"Buzz..."

"Done. The Wind Travel Art, Crimson Flame Art, and Green Wood Art have all been upgraded into Earth-tier cultivation methods. The Wind Travel Technique has been changed into Wind Sweeping Clouds and is now a Xuan Tier High-Grade Dou Technique. Blade of Flames has also been upgraded into a Xuan Tier High-Grade Dou Technique. The Green Wood Thorn has been changed into Thousand Leaves Dance and is now an Earth-tier Beginner Dou Technique."

After a quarter of an hour, Jin Yan had upgraded all three of Ye Tian's low-grade cultivation methods and Dou Techniques.

"Thank you, Senior."

Ye Tian had been worrying about his Dou Techniques, yet this great expert had solved the issue so easily. Sure enough, it was good to have a mighty patron.

"No need to be polite." Jin Yan waved her hand indifferently.

"Senior, please send me out. I need to gain experience in the outside world if I want to grow."

Ye Tian had been inside this tower for nearly a month. It was time for him to leave.

"No problem."

Jin Yan nodded with a smile, then controlled the Chaos Tower as it slowly rose and drifted into the Valley.

"Buzz..."

"Go out. We've reached the surface."

Before long, a teleportation gate appeared ahead. Jin Yan hurriedly told Ye Tian to leave.

"Swish..."

Ye Tian stepped directly through the teleportation gate and appeared in the Valley.

"Whoosh..."

"Ye Tian, wear the tower around your neck."

At that moment, the Chaos Tower shrank to the size of a finger. A divine metal chain appeared at its peak, and it slowly floated before Ye Tian.

"Alright, Senior."

Seeing that the Chaos Tower now looked like an ornament, Ye Tian was overjoyed. He quickly hung the little tower around his neck and tucked it beneath his collar.
