Chapter 1104: Endless Divine Object
Hua Tianjue, a figure at the peak of the Overlord level, is a super powerful being with one foot stepped into the Cosmic Emperor level.
His combat power is the highest in the field, definitely at an unbelievable level!
The Fire Serpent Demon before him, even at the Ninth Divine Master level, even if it can dominate an entire universe in a regular cosmos, has no ability to resist whatsoever in the presence of Hua Tianjue.
In front of Hua Tianjue, the Fire Serpent Demon is indeed an insignificant Little Demon.
With just one hand, Hua Tianjue kills it instantly!
This is the first time many, including Ye Chen, have seen Hua Tianjue take action, and his thunderous killing force shook the hearts of many.
Even Ye Chen, with cosmic emperor-level killing power in hand, knows that it's not truly his own cultivation, but rather the divine power of others, and using this divine power cannot genuinely exhibit cosmic emperor-level divine might.
When compared to Hua Tianjue, he is still far inferior.
Nonetheless.
At this moment, people have no time to specifically feel the power of Hua Tianjue.
Because, the guardian demon of the first treasure cave has been slain, meaning that the fifteen people present can now enter the first treasure cave to select treasures!
At the instant the guardian demon was slain, the treasure cave behind the demon already shone with divine light, and the door swung open.
And without hesitation, Hua Tianjue flew into the treasure cave first!
Overlord Hongjue and Overlord Yuan Qingzi also signaled their teammates, including Ning Xiaoxiao and Ye Chen, and quickly flew into the treasure cave.
Next comes the time for treasure selection, and no one wants to fall behind!
Even if they know those strong overlords will choose treasures first, they still want to see at the first opportunity what exactly is inside the treasure cave!
Under such circumstances, in an instant, Ye Chen and everyone else flew into the treasure cave.
"This is..."
Upon entering the treasure cave and seeing the situation inside, not only Ye Chen but also everyone else, including the super strong ones who entered first like Hua Tianjue, were dumbfounded.
They only see that inside the treasure cave is a world of several thousand zhang in circumference, and in the sky above, thousands of divine glowing lanterns are floating.
Each lantern, from the outside, looks exactly the same, and there is no way to distinguish what differences lie inside.
A voice echoed in this world, explaining the rules for selecting treasures in this treasure cave.
According to the voice, those thousands of lanterns in the sky are all alternate spaces containing treasures!
As explained by the rules for breaking through the Third Layer of Heaven, in this first treasure cave, each person has only three chances to enter a lantern and take treasures!
This means that among the fifteen people present, they can only take a total of forty-five pieces of divine objects from these thousands of divine objects!
With endless divine objects, only forty-five pieces can be taken, which makes everyone feel very regretful.
Even more shocking is that the voice said the treasures in this first treasure cave are at least divine master-level, and the most numerous are overlord-level treasures, with a few cosmic emperor-level treasures!
Cosmic emperor-level treasures!
Even Hua Tianjue would definitely be envious!
Unfortunately, only three treasures can be taken, and even more unfortunate is that the differences in the treasures cannot be distinguished from the outside, and choosing the treasures entirely depends on luck.
Under such circumstances, even if those strong overlords choose first, it doesn't necessarily mean they will select the most precious items.
This situation caused both Hua Tianjue and Overlord Hongjue's faces to darken.
Ye Chen and other low-realm geniuses, however, breathed a little sigh of relief.
After all, if the treasures were visible, the good items would surely be taken first by the strong overlords. On the contrary, in the current situation, they may be able to obtain something better than those strong overlords!
This made many people secretly anticipate.
Just as everyone was holding their own thoughts, Hua Tianjue spoke up, "Alright, there are still two more treasure caves to get through, and even more levels of the Chaotic Heavenly Hall after that. Here, let's hurry up."
"As was said before entering this treasure cave, those with greater strength choose first."
"Even if these treasures look indistinguishable from the outside, there must still be an order."
"I'll choose first, no objections, right?"
Overlord Hongjue and others shook their heads, and the other people remained silent.
Seeing this, Hua Tianjue, without any hesitation, "swoosh," flew directly into the sky and entered a lantern.
A few moments later, he emerged from the lantern.
From his face, it was impossible to tell what treasure he received, it was clear he had already stored the treasure inside his own storage space.
After taking one treasure, Hua Tianjue, without hesitation, quickly chose two more lanterns and took another two treasures.
Next, Overlord Hongjue stepped forward to choose.
Among these thousands of lanterns, the order of who goes first or last doesn't matter much, thus, Overlord Hongjue choosing second did not raise any objections from the other strong overlords.
Overlord Hongjue similarly entered three treasure lanterns and selected three treasures.
However, unlike Hua Tianjue who showed no change in expression, it was unclear what treasure he had chosen.
After Hongjue took a treasure, she revealed an extremely joyful smile on her face, clearly indicating that she had gained a satisfying treasure during the selection.
This made many people wonder if Hongjue had obtained a Cosmic Emperor-level treasure.
However, no one knew exactly what treasure it was, and even when another powerful overlord from Linglong Divine Land inquired, Hongjue did not specifically explain.
It's a joke—treasures involve secret weapons and even life-and-death battles. Even if they belong to the same force, one wouldn't reveal their trump card to others, let alone explicitly state what treasure they obtained.
Thus, even with Hongjue's unusually excited expression, Hua Tianjue simply glanced at her without saying much.
Of course, the most powerful individuals present also had a fleeting thought of killing others to seize their treasures after everyone had chosen.
But after considering the backgrounds of those present, the risks and rewards of the treasures, and their own certainty, they dismissed this idea.
None of the most powerful individuals present had absolute confidence in killing everyone and taking all their treasures, not even Hua Tianjue had such certainty.
Under such circumstances, they naturally wouldn't take such risks.
After all, if they failed, and the news reached Bluegold City, they would be completely annihilated by the Cosmic Emperors there, even if they were peak lords!
The treasure retrieval continued.
After the overlords finished choosing their treasures, the divine masters began to select theirs.
Ye Chen and Ning Xiaoxiao were still waiting on the side, not rushing to act.
There were countless treasures here, and dozens of them were simply a drop in the ocean, so Ye Chen wasn't interested in competing with the divine masters for precedence in choosing.
At this moment, Ning Xiaoxiao and Ye Chen were engaged in a secret conversation.
"Ning, can you really sense which lanterns hold more precious treasures?" Ye Chen asked Ning Xiaoxiao in disbelief.
Ning Xiaoxiao quietly nodded to Ye Chen, "Ye Chen, didn't I mention to you before entering the Treasure Cave that I received mysterious information from the Chaos Ancient Tree in this Third Layer of Heaven?"
"I don't know about the latter two Treasure Caves, but in this first Treasure Cave, I can indeed sense which lanterns contain more precious treasures."
"Of course, this batch of treasures is definitely among the top in these thousands of treasures, but I can't sense the exact level. We still have to rely on luck to possibly get the most precious treasure."
"However, even so, our probability of obtaining better things is higher than others. Ye Chen, I've observed that only Hua Tianjue and Hongjue have taken two of the more precious treasures that I sensed; the others have basically taken lesser treasures."
"Later, let's select from the precious treasures!"
"Ye Chen, remember carefully which lanterns are more precious as I tell you. I can sense dozens, and you'll have to decide which one to choose yourself..."
Ning Xiaoxiao explained to Ye Chen via transmission, while Ye Chen memorized the precious lanterns marked by Ning Xiaoxiao, feeling amazed in his heart.
After arriving at this Third Layer of Heaven, Ye Chen had focused on sensing the Space Star Aperture here, imprinting an Origin Star Aperture in his body. Hence, Ye Chen could faintly sense the differences in these treasure lanterns.
However, even with some vague sense, it couldn't match Ning Xiaoxiao's specificity.
Ning Xiaoxiao could sense the most precious batch of treasure lanterns, largely aligning with Ye Chen's own vague feelings. This had to make Ye Chen marvel at her.
Ning Xiaoxiao was truly extraordinary, no doubt a daughter favored by the heavens!
Even though she couldn't distinguish the most precious Cosmic Emperor-level treasures, being able to pick out the most precious dozens from thousands meant a far greater chance of obtaining powerful treasures!
Ye Chen knew that Ning Xiaoxiao was sharing the secret with him to repay him for helping her enter and break through at the Divine Mountain in the First Layer of Heaven.
"If, in the later Treasure Caves, Ning Xiaoxiao can't sense valuable treasures, and I can vaguely sense them, I'll remind her as well," Ye Chen thought.
While Ye Chen and Ning Xiaoxiao were conversing via transmission, the selection process by the fifteen individuals had already progressed halfway.
Soon, it was the turn of Yu Shendu, Ning Xiaoxiao, and Ye Chen, these geniuses below the divine master level, to make their selections.
Yu Shendu was the first to choose and quickly finished selecting.
Ye Chen noticed that the lanterns Yu Shendu chose were not among the most precious lanterns. Clearly, even if the treasures he chose were valuable, they weren't among the top dozens.
"Ye Chen, do you want to go first or should I?" Ning Xiaoxiao asked Ye Chen with a smile after Yu Shendu.
Ye Chen didn't mind, "Ning, you go first."
Ning Xiaoxiao nodded and, seeing no objection from the remaining few who hadn't chosen, flew directly into three lanterns in succession.
Lastly, unable to hide her joy, she selected three treasures and left.
The three lanterns Ning Xiaoxiao entered were the three she had pointed out to Ye Chen as part of the most precious batch of dozens.
After Ning Xiaoxiao, Ye Chen also stepped forward.
For Ye Chen stepping forward, the two remaining sovereigns had nothing to say. They didn't want to challenge Ye Chen, who had been continuously creating miracles, over the order.
If they failed the challenge, they would lose face.
Therefore, it was finally time for Ye Chen to choose his treasure.
Swish.
Without hesitation, Ye Chen flew directly into the first treasure lantern he had been eyeing.
