Chapter 123 Secret Vault Opened
Chapter 123: Opening of the Hidden Treasure
The next day.
A desolate mountain outside the city.
Various martial arts experts from all over the world gathered here in large numbers.
The hidden treasure of the former dynasty.
For these martial arts experts, it was simply the biggest attraction.
Even some wandering knights, upon hearing the news, rushed over, wanting to take advantage of the situation.
Because of this,
There were even more people who arrived than expected.
Although Bei Tui was prepared, seeing this scene now, he couldn't help but darken his face.
So many people,
How much treasure is enough for everyone?
Other major forces were also in a similar situation, and their expressions turned ugly when they saw so many people arriving.
"Why are there so many people?"
A leader of a major force asked with a serious face.
The lackey who was questioned replied, "Master, there are many people here. They have all received the information and rushed here from various places, including wandering knights and members of small factions who want to take advantage of the situation."
"Take advantage of the situation? Hmph!"
The leader of the major force's expression turned cold. "I think they're looking for death. Arrange for the major forces to unite and clear out these people who want to take advantage of the situation!"
"Yes!"
The lackey received the order and left.
Soon,
This proposal was accepted by various forces, and they began to unite to clear out the intruders.
Faced with this situation,
The wandering knights who had come, as well as the members of small factions, naturally refused to back down.
A battle quickly broke out.
Faced with various top experts, the other wandering knights and members of small factions indeed had no resistance, but there were so many of them!
If one couldn't do it, a group would attack.
The scene immediately became chaotic, with people bleeding and even losing their lives everywhere.
"Sir, should we intervene?"
The members of the Zhenwu Division occupied a hilltop and, seeing the situation, some of them asked their superiors for instructions.
Leading the team this time was the Divine Pursuit, who had made great contributions during this period, thanks to Lin Fan. He was now unparalleled in the Zhenwu Division.
It was also because of this,
That he was entrusted with the important task of the former dynasty's hidden treasure and was fully responsible for it.
The higher-ups even said that as long as he did well this time, his position would be promoted.
Now that the major forces in the martial world were clearing out the intruders, it would be reasonable for them to take advantage of the situation and make some arrests. However, the Divine Pursuit showed no intention of taking action. Instead, he coldly ignored it.
"Why bother with them? The more chaotic these martial artists are, the better."
The Divine Pursuit replied indifferently.
"Why is that?"
The subordinates below didn't understand.
The Divine Pursuit glanced at his subordinate and said, "If they don't cause chaos and all gather together, how can we successfully complete our mission this time?"
"Sir, you are wise!"
The subordinate immediately understood his meaning and began to flatter him.
The corners of the Divine Pursuit's mouth slightly curved up as he looked back at the chaotic crowd.
The Zhenwu Division didn't intervene.
Naturally, the situation became even more chaotic.
Just as the conflict was about to escalate, someone triggered something, and a loud noise erupted from the scene. Then, a huge pitch-black passage appeared with a rumble at the foot of the desolate mountain.
The passage was made of bluestone, clearly indicating that it was artificially constructed.
In this place,
At this location,
Other than the entrance to the hidden treasure of the former dynasty, what else could it be?
"It's the entrance to the hidden treasure of the former dynasty! Let's rush in!"
Those scattered individuals who were originally unable to withstand the joint forces of the major factions were planning to retreat. But now that the entrance had opened, they had no hesitation.
With a shout.
The scattered individuals, like a mob, all rushed towards the opened passage.
Other major forces saw this scene, and even if some people felt something was wrong, in order to prevent the treasure from being taken by others, they could only gather their own experts and rush towards the entrance of the passage.
"Master Lin, should we go in?"
Being experienced and astute, Beilei naturally noticed that something was off.
Lin Fan didn't speak, but carefully observed the opened passage.
Regarding this,
Beilei remained calm and didn't disturb him.
But the people below couldn't remain calm, especially the young ones among them. Seeing groups of people already rushing in, they became anxious.
"What are we waiting for? If we keep waiting, the treasure will be taken by others!"
He couldn't help but speak up in the end.
"This treasure isn't so easily obtained, but indeed there's no need to waste time. Since there are people helping to open the entrance of the passage, then let's go in as well."
After observing for a while, Lin Fan withdrew his gaze and said with a smile.
"Tch, wasting time."
Upon hearing this response, the young one muttered, thinking that Lin Fan was being mysterious and wasting time.
Lin Fan glanced at him indifferently upon hearing this, but didn't argue with him.
However, Beilei's expression turned serious as he scolded, "Xiaofeng, if you continue to act like this, after we return this time, you will stay in seclusion at home. Don't come out until you reach the top level!"
"Master..."
The young one didn't expect his master to react so strongly and was instantly frightened.
Not allowed to come out until reaching the top level, this meant he would be confined!
At such a youthful and energetic age, this punishment was even harsher than beating him up.
"Master Lin, this rascal has offended you in many ways. I apologize on his behalf and hope that you can forgive him for his youth and immaturity."
Beilei's angry scolding made the young one obedient, and he sincerely apologized to Lin Fan.
"It's alright."
Lin Fan smiled and shook his head.
Naturally, he wouldn't argue with the other party. It would be pointless to hold a grudge. However, if there were any dangers or similar situations in the underground secret treasure, he wouldn't bother with the other party either.
That's just the kind of person he was.
Since he didn't argue with the other party, naturally he wouldn't argue to the end.
The young one didn't realize this and, although he was obedient now, he still felt unhappy inside.
In his opinion,
Lin Fan was about the same age as himself, so how could he be as mysterious as his master said?
Even if he started training from the womb, at most he would be about the same as him.
Or even worse!
After all, he was a genius, otherwise he wouldn't have been accepted as a disciple by the Four Supreme Masters.
At this moment, Lin Fan and the others didn't notice this, only the girl standing next to him, Tan Jingjing, glanced at him and shook her head slightly.
Ahead,
The opened entrance was very large, conservatively estimated to be able to accommodate several carriages side by side.
Just by looking at the size of this entrance, one could tell how vast the space inside would be.
The crowd of martial artists rushed in like fish entering a river, without causing any waves.
Lin Fan and his group also entered smoothly, disappearing into the dark passage.
The divine catcher from the Town Martial Bureau, Zhuiming, also saw Lin Fan, a familiar face. When he saw that Lin Fan and the others were not in a hurry and had no intention of rushing ahead, he raised an eyebrow.
"Sir, should we go in now?"
Almost everyone had entered below, and they were getting anxious.
Zhuiming withdrew his gaze and nodded, "Let's go in, but don't rush ahead later. Pay more attention, and if you notice anything wrong, retreat first."
"Yes!"
Although the people below didn't understand, they still nodded and passed on the message.
The people from the Town Martial Bureau also entered the passage in the end, and the previously bustling desolate mountain became empty.
It wasn't until the noise completely disappeared inside the passage that a group of masked figures quietly appeared.
Looking at the crowd that had entered, the leader of the masked people couldn't help but smirk triumphantly.
