Chapter 992: Five Treasures

“Before that, you have to see someone.”
“He’s the only survivor from ancient times. He knows the Blood Spirit Clan better than anyone else.”
“It’s been so many years. I don’t know if he’s really crazy, or if he’s just pretending to be crazy. I want to believe that he’s just trying to find the weaknesses and flaws of the Blood Spirit Clan’s experts. I think he knows their whereabouts, but I just don’t know if he’s willing to see you.”
Ye Chen’s eyes flickered like stars. “You must be talking about Han Yun. I heard that he is also in the Blood Spirit Secret Realm. Since you’re familiar with this place, you probably know where he is, right?”
Senior Ruo nodded. “That old fellow and I interact sometimes, but his temper is extremely strange. He might be calm for a moment, but go crazy the very next moment. He might even kill innocent people. I used a technique to observe the situation there. Some of the Kunlun Mountains’ experts who came with you this time had already found Han Yun.”
“Unfortunately, most of them died at Han Yun’s hands.”
“Are you still planning to meet him?”
Ye Chen’s eyes were filled with determination. Since he entered the Blood Spirit Secret Realm, he had no other choice but to do this. Furthermore, he was not afraid of danger.
Senior Ruo got the answer she was looking for from Ye Chen’s gaze. “Alright. Since you’re the person chosen by the stone tablet, you naturally won’t be able to avoid meeting Han Yun. I bet you can walk out of this alive.”
“However, before you go looking for Han Yun, I want to give you something. Follow me. These things originally belong to you.”
“This is also the only thing I can do for the Kunlun Mountains. I’m already old and can only guard the Holy Herb Valley. I’m powerless to go up against the true experts of the Blood Spirit Clan.”
Senior Ruo’s body was hunched as she walked toward a wall.
Soon, she stopped in her tracks and slowly reached out her hand and pressed it against the wall.
Within moments, the wall parted into two sides, revealing a stone door.
“Follow me.”
Senior Ruo led Ye Chen through a long corridor. When she pushed open the stone door, Ye Chen saw a different world inside.
At the center was a huge square.
There were a few five-meter-tall stone pillars on the square, and five things were lying quietly on the stone pillars.
Senior Ruo walked over to the first stone pillar and extended her hand. The box on the first stone pillar then floated down.
After repeating this process four more times, there were five boxes in front of Ye Chen.
Although he did not know what was inside them, since she had handled them so carefully, they were definitely extraordinary.
“I deciphered some of the words on the stone tablet and understood some things. These things should be useful to you.”
After saying that, Senior Ruo raised her arm and opened the first box.
To Ye Chen’s surprise, there was a golden robe inside.
The material used to make the golden robe was extraordinary, and there were runes and formations on its surface.
These formations were all ancient formations!
“Wear this.”
Ye Chen nodded. He took the golden robe and put it on.
In an instant, the robe seemed to disappear. However, Ye Chen could clearly feel a barrier covering his body, which was strong enough to withstand an attack from a Supreme Emperor realm expert!
“Take this!”
Senior Ruo suddenly pointed her finger at him, and unleashed the power of a Supreme Emperor realm expert, attacking his vital points.
Ye Chen wanted to dodge, but it was too late because the two of them were too close.
More importantly, Ye Chen had already confirmed that Senior Ruo was not an enemy, and thus did not expect her to attack him.
The attack landed on Ye Chen’s chest…
Ye Chen had thought that this attack would kill him for sure, but unexpectedly, the moment the attack landed, the golden robe flashed, and the powerful attack disappeared!
A sense of relief washed over Ye Chen. That had been too terrifying!
However, due to the powerful attack, the golden robe materialized, but its dazzling golden color faded, and it was extremely dim now.
“Senior Ruo, has the golden robe lost its power?” Ye Chen asked curiously.
It would be a pity if it was a one-time use item.
Senior Ruo shook his head and explained, “Don’t worry. I found this treasure on a ten-thousand-year-old snow mountain. It’s extremely precious!”
“It will naturally recharge itself within twenty hours.”
“After 20 hours, it will be ready for use again, and can withstand another blow from a mid-stage Supreme Realm expert.”
“Remember, it’s just a single blow. This can save your life during critical situations.”
“Thank you, Senior Ruo!” Ye Chen cupped his hands toward the old woman.
Senior Ruo glanced at Ye Chen and smiled. “I’m not used to your change in att.i.tude. You don’t have to thank me. From the beginning to the end, I did it for myself, not for you or the Kunlun Mountains.”
“I brought the sect disciples here, and it was a sign of fear.”
“The most dangerous place is the safest place. Even if the Kunlun Mountains outside are razed to the ground, I might still be alive and well inside here.”
“I’m avoiding the danger.”
Then, Senior Ruo opened the second box, revealing a cauldron lying quietly inside.
“On the stone tablet, it says that your medical skills are divine. Although I can’t see anything special about your medical skills, I believe this cauldron is very valuable to you.”
“This cauldron is called the Sacred Herb Cauldron. It’s a treasure of my sect. I’m not interested in alchemy, so I’ll give it to you. I hope you can become even stronger with this cauldron.”
Ye Chen looked at the Holy Herb Cauldron with a hungry and excited expression.
He knew cauldrons too well, and Senior Ruo’s Sacred Herb Cauldron was of a heaven-defying grade!
If he used this cauldron to refine pills, the success rate would increase by at least twenty percent!
Ye Chen was now full of antic.i.p.ation for the contents of the remaining three boxes.
However, Senior Ruo did not open any more. Instead, she said to Ye Chen, “Don’t open the remaining three boxes now.”
“Only open it when you are in a desperate situation or when you are facing certain death. I can guarantee that these will at least keep you alive!”
Senior Ruo had left Ye Chen with three life-saving trump cards.
She understood Ye Chen’s current limitations, and did not want him to die prematurely. Although she was unsure about whether this kid would truly be able to overcome the Blood Spirit Clan, she still chose to believe the answer given by the stone tablet.
There were many prophecies on the stone tablet, and this kid met every criteria!
It also predicted that Ye Chen would enter the Blood Spirit Secret Realm!
