  “Shut up! One more word and I will cut you up as well!” Zeng Yitao was losing his patience and collectedness. As soon as a hit missed, he would swing the spear again and keep closing in on Hao Ren! Therefore, when Hao Ren had to take five steps backward, Zeng Yitao immediately took five steps forward!

  His anger had been fueling since he saw Hao Ren holding Zhao Yanzi’s hand! Not to mention, he was still upset and furious over the incident at Zhao Yanzi’s birthday party last time!

  “Uncle, don’t fight him head-on!” While watching, Zhao Yanzi stomped her feet and said to Hao Ren worriedly.

  It was not the Dharma Treasures that she was worried about but Hao Ren’s safety.

  Thump! The couple from South Ocean had worked together and retrieved the first Dharma Treasure! It was a dark grey-colored rope. The second it was yanked out of the white light-veil, it began giving off an extremely powerful aura!

  Pleasantly surprised, the couple placed the rope around their waist before sending out Nature Essence unitedly for their second Dharma Treasure!

  Zeng Yitao was filled with envy. Yet, he still wanted to prove himself and teach Hao Ren a lesson. As he took his anger out on Hao Ren, his attacks became even messier.

  Thump! Hao Ren now had his back against the wall of the main hall, and Zeng Yitao’s spear was speeding toward his forehead!

  “Crown Prince, you cannot kill him!” Working hard on obtaining the black jade flute, Zeng Yitao’s servant saw what was happening and quickly reminded him.

  “I’m going to end him!” Zeng Yitao’s eyes had turned bright red due to his urge to kill. Revolving the golden spear smoothly in his hands, he pierced it right toward Hao Ren’s forehead again!

  As the Crown Prince of West Ocean, he had always done whatever he wanted. In his eyes, East Ocean should only swallow insults and humiliation quietly!

  Pop, pop, pop… In this instant, Hao Ren had released a few dozen sword energies that he summoned in his palm at once!

  Like a few dozen mini-missiles, they all exploded on Zeng Yitao’s body! Although Zeng Yitao’s glided Daoist robe had defensive functions, it was not able to withstand the bombing of the five-elemental sword energies. Several large holes appeared on the robe!

  Under the impact, the golden spear, which was only a few centimeters away from piercing into Hao Ren’s forehead, was also knocked away.

  “Cheater!” Seeing that his Daoist robe had been torn, Zeng Yitao threw his spear right at Hao Ren forcefully.

  Shuddered with worries and fear, Zhao Yanzi couldn’t help but start tipping her toes while she watched!

  “Five-elemental sword energy, release!” Once again, Hao Ren’s palm released two fierce sword energies!

  As the sword energies clashed with the spear, the golden spear’s power was reduced, and it slowed down quite a bit. Then, Hao Ren opened the hidden space in his neckless and commanded, “Seize!”

  The golden spear entered and disappeared right into Hao Ren’s necklace!

  Although it was Zeng Yitao’s Natal Dharma Treasure, he now could no longer sense the existence of his own Coiled Dragon Golden Spear!

  “Zi, let’s go!” Hao Ren dragged Zhao Yanzi and headed for the door of Yazi Palace!

  At this moment, the siblings of North Ocean had also gotten their very first Dharma Treasure!

  215 Might As Well

  Dragging Zhao Yanzi, Hao Ren ran for the door of Yazi Palace. Given no time to process what was happening, Zhao Yanzi could only follow Hao Ren.

  Greatly shocked, Zeng Yitao realized that his Natal Dharma Treasure had been seized by Hao Ren and immediately chased after him.

  “Crown Prince, it’s more important to obtain these primitive Dharma Treasures now!” his servant called out again.

  After sprinting forward a dozen steps, Zeng Yitao finally stopped. Gritting his teeth, he sent out a burst of blue Nature Essence from his palm, which pierced through the white light-veil and began assisting his servant in obtaining the treasures.

  As they were the first to arrive at Yazi Palace, they believed that they had sufficient time and decided to each work on obtaining one Dharma Treasure first. Then, they could get the third one together. Judging from their current situation, it would be extremely fortunate if they were able to obtain even one Dharma Treasure; it was almost impossible for them to get a second one!

  At this moment, Zeng Yitao was grinding his teeth with hatred! He had already achieved Zhen-level and had his own Natal Dharma Treasure; yet, he couldn’t even defeat Hao Ren who was merely at Li-level!

  Following Hao Ren out of Yazi Palace, Zhao Yanzi looked at Hao Ren with doubts. “Are we not going to try to obtain the Dharma Treasures?”

  “We need to find elixir pills. Acquiring Dharma Treasures is not what is most important.” Tapping the necklace on his chest, Hao Ren summoned Little White.

  Currently, Little White was toying with Zeng Yitao’s golden spear in the hidden space.

  After jumping out of the space, Little White began rolling around on the grass, acting like a spoiled puppy. Seeing this, Hao Ren gently kicked Little White’s butt, and it instantly rolled over obediently and turned into the gigantic Snow Lion.

  “We still have time to go to the next branch palace!” Pulling over Zhao Yanzi, Hao Ren sat on the back of Little White and dragged Zhao Yanzi onto its back as well. Then, he shot out a faint sword energy to stimulate the fur around Little White’s rump, causing it to growl and fly into the sky at once!

  With its four paws unleashing fire, Little White soared freely in the sky.

  Since there was not much time left, Hao Ren’s decision had put everything at stake. If they didn’t have Little White, he would definitely have stayed at Yazi Palace to try to get a Dharma Treasure. However, with Little White’s flying ability, there were more possibilities for them.

  This time, seated behind Hao Ren, Zhao Yanzi was tightly holding onto Hao Ren’s Daoist robe as Little White tried its best to fly toward the branch palace that was further ahead.

  “Hey, about…” She thought for a moment and said in the quietest voice possible, “Don’t ever do dangerous things again.”

  “What do you mean?” Hao Ren asked.

  “Well…” Yanking Hao Ren’s Daoist robe with her hands, Zhao Yanzi replied, “Things like fighting others bare-handed and unarmed…”

  “Okay, got it,” Hao Ren responded. He thought more about it, and a bright smile appeared on his face. Needless to say, Zhao Yanzi was not able to see his face as she was seated behind him.

  “Also, how were you able to seize his spear?” Zhao Yanzi asked.

  “The space inside my necklace is as big as a room; I can take in 50 or 60 of them, let alone just one!” Hao Ren answered with a laugh.

  Last time, he tried putting the bell he got from the Lu sisters into the space to test it and found that the Lu sisters were not able to detect the bell anymore. From then on, he had thought of other ways to make use of the space. He hadn’t had the chance to try it out until now.

  Anything that was within a certain range and had Nature Essence could be seized. Zeng Yitao’s Natal Dharma Treasure certainly had Nature Essence, and its size also did not exceed the limit of the space. Therefore, Hao Ren was able to seize it without trouble.

  With that being said, if the opponent were a lot stronger than he was, Hao Ren would not try to seize things hastily. Even this time, he was lucky to be able to take full advantage of the fact that Zeng Yitao had no clue what was to come. After all, a Natal Dharma Treasure and its owner were connected and could communicate directly. Thus, if Zeng Yitao suddenly pulled his spear away, Hao Ren’s hidden space might not be able to suck it in.

  Watching Little White soar in the sky, Hao Ren felt that he could not take its hard work for granted. Therefore, he took out an elixir pill and placed it in its mouth.

  While flying high up in the air, Little White started chewing the pill. Soon, the flames on its claws were blazing even more fiercely, and its speed had incre
ased considerably!

  Thump! After a short period of flying, Little White began descending at an angle onto the ground right before the second branch palace!

  This time, Hao Ren did not put Little White away. Instead, he allowed it to follow behind him and Zhao Yanzi.

  Similar to Yazi Palace, two stone statues were standing in front of the entrance of the palace. The two stone statues looked like tortoises, crawling on two humongous stone monuments.

  “This is the sixth son of the Godly Dragon, Baxia. It has immense strength and could carry many mountains on its back at once,” Zhao Yanzi stated as she recognized this creature.

  “So, this must be Baxia Palace.” As Hao Ren had no time to waste, he had no intention of staying at the entrance to observe the two stone statues. Promptly, he dragged Zhao Yanzi into the palace with him. Wagging its tail, Little White followed right behind.

  Yazi was a fighter and sought to kill, hence the inside of Yazi Palace was stacked with all types of offensive Dharma Treasures. Judging from the look of the stone statues by the entrance, Hao Ren thought that he would find different types of defensive Dharma Treasures inside Baxia Palace.

  To his surprise, he and Zhao Yanzi walked into the hall and saw a large amount of densely placed black-colored stone monuments.

  All of the stone monuments had carvings of ancient characters that Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi did not understand. Still, from the lively auras and the look of the scriptures, Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi could tell that those were all ancient cultivation techniques!

  They were, in fact, the long lost great techniques from the Prehistoric Era!

  “What should we do? We can’t take them with us; let’s memorize them then.” As her eyes lit up, Zhao Yanzi’s sounded very anxious. Now that they had finally made it into the second branch palace, there was no way that they were going to leave empty-handed.

  “Look carefully. These cultivation techniques are not complete. The writing is all in stanza forms, and it seems that the key sentences are hidden inside the stone monuments. We will have to find the pattern and activate the gears behind them somehow. Only then, we will be able to acquire the complete cultivation techniques from the corresponding stone monuments,” Hao Ren lowered his head and said to Zhao Yanzi, “Think you can do it?”

  Zhao Yanzi responded quickly by frantically shaking her head. It would most likely hurt her brain if she were to use it.

  “Let’s go then!” Grabbing her arm, Hao Ren headed for the door.

  Zhao Yanzi could not take her eyes off the stone monuments as she was unwilling to leave empty-handed again.

  “I know there is not enough time, but we can still copy down an incomplete one and bring it back to study it.” Even when they were already outside, Zhao Yanzi couldn’t help but repeat her suggestion.

  “Let’s gamble one more time and see what happens with the next branch palace.” Once more, Hao Ren pulled Zhao Yanzi onto the back of Little White.

  He too, understood that there was not much time left. Now, whether they could make it smoothly to the third branch palace and obtain anything useful would be a true test of their attitude and luck.

  If they were able to get to three branch palaces in a row but were unable to obtain anything, it would be… A tragedy.

  After reaching his hand to Little White’s mouth and feeding it another elixir pill, Hao Ren urged Little White to fly toward the third branch palace which they had once spotted.

  While they were up in the air, Hao Ren saw two more branch palaces that were located close together at the far end. If they were given sufficient time, he would have loved to visit them one by one…

  Boom! Little White landed abruptly, even leaving a dent in the soil before the entrance of the third branch palace. On their way there, Little White was able to sense Hao Ren’s anxiety. Hence, it landed in a rush and not as smooth as before.

  As they expected, there were also two stone statues situated by the entrance. This time, the two stone statues looked like two lions firmly seated on two spheres. Moreover, there were engravings of exquisite incense burners on the spheres.

  Suanni! The fifth son of the Godly Dragon!

  The most desolate and distant land of southern Kunlun could deplete the most refined aura, yet it was the place that gave life to the clan of a Spirit Beast. Speaking of which, Suanni was actually the ancestor of lion-type Spirit Beast like Little White!

  However, Hao Ren now had no time to stay at the entrance to appreciate Little White’s ancestor. Instead, he dashed inside the branch palace while dragging Zhao Yanzi by her arm.

  By this time, Hao Ren had made up his mind. This was their last chance, and they could not afford to be picky; they would grab whatever Suanni Palace had to offer!

  Although it only took half a minute for them to run into the palace, Hao Ren was so nervous and tense that he felt like they were running for an entire hour!

  They could sense that there was not much time since they had wasted most of the time traveling to the different locations. Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi realized that they could be expelled by the Nine Dragon Palace at any time now!

  Soon, the view of the main hall finally appeared in Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi’s sight.

  One by one, there was a dazzling display of small cells on the wall, each containing a bottle!

  Elixir!

  They found Elixirs!

  According to legends, Suanni was always puffing and inhaling clouds. Thus, it would only make sense for Suanni Palace to have all types of elixirs in inside!

  The bottles that contained the elixir pills were all placed in the cells that were carved out from the wall of the main hall. However, flying on Dharma Treasures was prohibited in this entire prehistoric land in the Nine Dragon Palace!

  Therefore, as they could see, only a few cells that were located at the lowest points on the wall were empty. All the other bottles were still inside their respective cells.

  The fact that flying on Dharma Treasures was not allowed meant that they were not able to command Dharma Treasures using Nature Essence. That was why Zeng Yitao was utilizing sheer martial arts when he attacked Hao Ren, and he threw the spear at Hao Ren using brute force instead of controlling the spear with his Nature Essence!

  “What should we do?” Zhao Yanzi turned to Hao Ren anxiously as she also seemed to have realized the restrictions.

  The ancient elixir pills had filled the entire wall, yet, generations of masters before Hao Ren and Zhao Yanzi were not able to retrieve them! The surface of the wall was incredibly smooth and slippery that it made climbing impossible. As for the cells located lowest on the wall, they imagined that the cultivators at the time were only able to reach those cells by climbing on top of each other.

  “Dumb!” Hao Ren tapped Zhao Yanzi’s head and said, “We’ve got Little White!”

  “That’s true, Little White!” Zhao Yanzi suddenly looked enlightened, “Now that we have Little White, we can go as high as we want! Since Little White’s flying ability is its innate power, it should be able to fly!”

  Enthusiastically, Zhao Yanzi locked her gaze on Little White. However, with its big innocent eyes wide open, Little White was confused by Zhao Yanzi.

  “Little White, fly!” Zhao Yanzi directed after she climbed onto Little White’s back and slapped its rump.

  However, after jumping up a couple of times, only sparks came out of its paws. Little White was not able to fly up at all.

  “It looks like it is indeed a special case in here; all forms of flying are prohibited.” Hao Ren’s brows furrowed.

  “What are we going to do now? Hurry and come up with something!” Riding on Little White’s back, Zhao Yanzi was so anxious that she almost felt like hitting Hao Ren. Looking at so many elixir pills displayed before them, it would undoubtedly be heartbreaking if they were not able to obtain any.

  Suanni was the legendary Godly Beast of the Saint Land, Kunlun, and it meant that these elixir pills could be ones created by the legendary Queen Mother
of the West!

  “We can only count on exhausting you and Little White then!” Hao Ren sent forward a sword energy with his finger, “Game of great joy - Gold Coin Catching! Second row on the left!”

  (TL Note: Hey guys, here are the two chapters for today! MC and Zi traveled to three branch palaces already! Will there be more? Stay tuned!)

  216 Zi Could Blush too?

  Hao Ren’s sword energy shot at the little bottle on top of the second row as he spoke.

  Although there were thin layers of array formations outside of the cells, they weren’t strong since they were only there to separate the bottles. Hao Ren’s sword energy went through the layers and knocked onto the little bottles, making them shake and fall off the cells.

  Zhao Yanzi patted Little White’s rump and urged, “Go catch it, Little White!”

  Little White ran toward the bottles as Zhao Yanzi reached out to catch them. She was the main player on her volleyball team, so she was good at catching.

  “The third row on the left!” Hao Ren said as he shot another sword energy.

  Zhao Yanzi hastily opened her arms to the side. Little White understood what she wanted and moved over a few steps.

  “The sixth row on the left!” Hao Ren shouted again.

  Little White ran over with Zhao Yanzi on its back. Zhao Yanzi caught the bottle again and put it in her arms.

  “The fifth row on the right!”

  “The eighth row on the right!”

  “The fourth row on the left!”

  Hao Ren kept shouting, and Zhao Yanzi dashed everywhere on Little White as if they were fighting a fire.

  Hao Ren didn’t mean to tire Zhao Yanzi. He found that he couldn’t fully apply his Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll in this branch palace. There seemed to be a ton of resistant force. He only knew where the sword energy was heading until he made the shot.
