Chapter 2604: Choice (1)
" The treasure map was found after much difficulty. Is there still danger? " Qi Yuan frowned.
Li Lingtian nodded and said, " Yes, the first few of us saw the World Lord. The World Lord said that the treasure map is just less dangerous. Besides, those who first entered the Heavenly Dragon Shrine were aware of the dangers and traps in the temple. "
Qi Yuan knew that Li Lingtian had something to say so he asked, ""Then what do you mean?"
Qi Yuan had already addressed Li Lingtian as ’you’ since he would never hit a smiling man.
Li Lingtian said bluntly, " Entering the Heavenly Dragon Shrine can be said to be a rather dangerous matter. Chu Yu does not intend to let the Chu family members enter. Therefore, if you want to enter, I will naturally agree. However, I suggest that you withdraw. We will give you some resources and not let you suffer any losses. "
Qi Yuan looked at Li Lingtian’s ugly expression and asked, ""Do you mean that you don’t want us to enter the treasure trove?"
Li Lingtian shook his head. " No, you might have misunderstood. Since I’ve already promised you and you have a share of the treasure map, I have no right to order you around. However, I want to give you a choice. It’s a matter of life and death. "
Qi Yuan had already figured it out. He did not want to offend Chu Yu and the Chu family, and now, he did not want to offend Li Lingtian even more.
"If you and Young Master Chu want me to leave, then I won’t say anything and will leave immediately. But if it’s for our lives, I want to give it a try."
Li Lingtian was able to foresee the dangers involved, so he could be considered as someone who had gone through thick and thin with them.
He did not want them to be in danger. Besides, it would be good for both parties to leave but there was no way for them to stay. Perhaps they would die if they entered but that was beyond Li Lingtian’s control.
The leader of another force said,"I want to give it a try too. I’ve been in the Burial Cliff for so long, and countless people have died just for the treasure trove. It’s already right in front of me. If I can’t go and take a look, I’ll really regret it for the rest of my life."
Since the two of them had already reached this point, Li Lingtian said, "" I respect your wishes. Hurry up and recover from your injuries. When you’re ready, we’ll head to the treasure trove. "
The group of people found a side hall. Chu Weiyang arranged for the Chu family’s people to take turns guarding it.
The rest of the people healed their injuries and recovered their origin energy in preparation for entering the treasure trove.
Some people’s injuries were indeed more serious, so they needed more time.
Although Li Lingtian had the help of the Star Heart, he could not recover quickly. Due to the severity of his previous injuries, his Origin Energy was almost depleted after activating the Brahma Heavenly Palace.
A month later, everyone had recovered, and the remaining 400 people were finally ready.
Li Lingtian took out the treasure map once again. Previously, when the treasure map was synthesized, he did not have a good look at it due to Lin Ziwen’s appearance.
This was the time to look at the treasure map. The treasure map was a very detailed map of the entire Heavenly Dragon Shrine.
It was indeed very detailed. Every place was clearly marked, such as the mechanisms, the stone beasts in each side hall, and the number of stone beasts.
The marked treasure location was actually in the main hall. The treasure map showed that the treasure location was under the main hall of the Heavenly Dragon Godly Palace.
Li Lingtian and the rest found the Golden Dragon Seat that had activated the mechanism and the mechanism that they had accidentally touched earlier without any hesitation.
He didn’t press it directly. It was extremely fast. The Heavenly Dragon Sacred Hall shook and the stone pillars in the hall immediately changed positions.
As he moved underground, Li Lingtian took a look at the treasure map and leaped into the air.
He immediately stared at a dragon pillar. On it was a lifelike golden dragon carved.
This was the clue given by the treasure map. Hence, Li Lingtian had to give it a try. There were many dragon pillars in the main hall but the mechanism was only located on one dragon pillar.
Li Lingtian’s eyesight was pushed to the limit. The dragon pillar marked on the treasure map with a mechanism was completely different from the other dragon pillars.
Li Lingtian immediately took a look at all the dragon pillars. Li Lingtian’s memory was astounding, so he was able to quickly identify the same dragon pillars and the different dragon pillars.
Li Lingtian immediately flew over at an extremely fast speed. He placed one hand on the eye carved on the dragon pillar.
"Get ready to land!" Li Lingtian shouted.
Under Li Lingtian’s control, the eye on the dragon pillar finally pressed down.
In the blink of an eye, the space shook and the ground caved in. Li Lingtian and the others fell down together.
However, before that, Chu Yu had already made arrangements for everyone in the Chu family. Only Li Lingtian, Wan Tianyu, Liu Banxian, and Chu Weiyang were left.
Qi Yuan and the people from the other two forces did not stay behind. They were all going to bring them to the treasure trove.
They might not be confident in their own strength, or they might have brought more people with them to give them a sense of security.
In Li Lingtian’s opinion, all these people would die if they entered the treasure trove, even though the remaining ones were Star Ninth-Order powerhouses.
However, it would not be of any use. He believed that there would definitely be an even greater difficulty waiting for them at the treasure trove.
Hence, he asked Chu Yu to arrange for all the members of the Chu family to stay in the Heavenly Dragon Shrine. It was safer that way.
After the previous battle, there weren’t many people left in the Heavenly Dragon Shrine.
Unless there were more people who could enter the Heavenly Dragon Godly Palace. However, it had been so long. Those who knew about the Burial Cliff would have come down long ago.
Those who didn’t come down either didn’t know or didn’t have enough courage.
The main hall collapsed and everyone fell down. It had to be said that this mechanism was indeed exquisite.
Ordinary people really couldn’t find it. As long as one mechanism was opened, it would immediately trigger the second mechanism. If they couldn’t trigger it within this period of time, the mechanical stone pillar would directly sink into it.
It wasn’t easy to find it at all. Moreover, there were so many stone pillars, how could one find a stone pillar mechanism? Therefore, there were no markings on the treasure map.
Li Lingtian was very confident that he would never be able to find this treasure in his lifetime.
Everyone entered rapid descent mode. The space below the main hall was extremely dark. Chu Yu immediately took out a luminous pearl.
It lit up the surrounding space, and they finally sank to the bottom not long after.
Li Lingtian looked into the space and saw nothing but a passageway. This was not the real treasure trove and he had to continue walking to the real treasure trove.
The World Lord’s treasure was really troublesome.
