Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 578: Chapter 270: Looting the Treasure Vault, No Time to Delay! (6K)_4

It could be said to be one of the Main Base’s trump cards!

This has to be taken with us, even if it can’t be used, we can’t leave it for the Church.

Li Yelai placed his hands above the skull but felt a wave of fear wash over him, and he couldn’t store it inside the ark’s storage space.

Not only that, but the skull seemed to faintly show signs of coming back to life.

Is this damn thing still alive?

This caused Li Yelai’s face to change, and he immediately backed away; the skull gradually fell silent and ceased to be active.

“Be careful, after all, it is the head of a Chaos Demon,” said Little Mad King. “It is said that this demon had the strength of a King in battle, and perhaps even stronger. Let’s not touch it for now.”

“Right, it’s likely the casualties within the Main Base are waking it up…” Li Yelai felt regretful but there was nothing he could do.

He looked around, there were still many good things on the fifth floor.

Outside the Treasure Vault, the believers fought fiercely.

“Protect the Treasure Vault! We have nowhere left to retreat!”

Meanwhile, inside the Treasure Vault, Li Yelai picked up the reverse scale of an Overlord-Level Ancient Dragon and the heartwood of an Overlord-Level Spirit Plant, cheerily placing them into his storage space.

…

The Demon General fought fiercely, on the brink of death, yet he roared, “Hold on just a bit longer! Reinforcements will arrive soon!”

And inside the Treasure Vault, Li Yelai picked up the Mysterious Material of an Overlord-Level Spiritual Ability User: “Great stuff, I’ll forge a weapon for the captain when I get back!”

…

The Old Demon General fought bloodily, bellowing, “My lords, for our sovereign, for Emperor’s Fall! Fight to the death, no retreat!”

Meanwhile, Li Yelai, inside the Treasure Vault, found various materials and mineral ores prepared by a Great Demon for the forging of a Supreme Weapon—materials that Li Yelai took for himself.

The brave struggles outside allowed for Li Yelai’s indiscriminate looting.

He nearly emptied out all the good things on the fifth floor, leaving behind some dangerous Taboo Items.

The Church had sealed these with Sealed Blood Ore Crystals. If they were to lose control, the mere Taboo Items would be enough trouble for the Main Base.

Li Yelai closely examined these Taboo Items—twenty-one in total.

Among them, the notable ones were:

The Dimension Slash Blade, capable of temporarily severing space.

It could create a temporary dimensional space where it was very safe to stay.

However, the user’s mind would be twisted, believing they were a weapon for an extended period.

The last user thought he was a hammer and smashed himself onto Ye Boshou’s blade, shocking all the Ye Boshous.

There was also a die, the Jile Twelve-Sided Die.

It was a twelve-sided die.

Using the die, depending on the number rolled, one could receive enhancements or debuffs.

Similar to the Lucky Wheel, but these were temporary boosts or debuffs lasting one hour and could be used multiple times.

The cost was that after ten consecutive uses, on the eleventh use, the user would lose their memory for a week.

Finally, there was a mirror.

It was said to have been stolen from the Jile Sect.

The effect was to reverse one’s attributes.

For instance, a Spiritual Ability User of the Path of Zero would have the highest Spiritual Power Strength within their level category but have the weakest physique.

If they used this mirror, their Spiritual Power Strength and physical strength would swap.

In other words, they would become a True Martial Path Spiritual Ability User with the ability of the Path of Zero.

Its effect was quite useful; it greatly increased the user’s margin for error.

But the cost was… gender reversal during use.

If one couldn’t use the mirror again, they would be permanently changed.

This mirror was viewed as a sacred artifact by the pleasure-loving madmen of the Jile Sect.

So much so that when the Blood God Sect caught some of these beautiful women, they were disgusted to realize how many were previously men? Hence, they executed all of those captives.

In any case, these three Taboo Items are still usable, as for the others…

They were either mediocre or too dangerous.

Li Yelai also couldn’t take all the Taboo Items with him; after all, Taboo Items are difficult to destroy.

If the Church were to find not even one of them, they would surely become suspicious.

So, Li Yelai only took these three Taboo Items.

Then, he returned to the fourth floor and took away all the Mysterious Material there; Mysterious Material is easy to damage, and it being missing afterward would be normal.

Some Extraordinary Material was left behind.

After doing all this, Li Yelai took out the Lucky Wheel…
