Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 258: Chapter 259: The Dripping Treasure

”Boom!”

As soon as they stepped into the Linghua Mansion, a violent airflow swept through, the mighty airwave surged backward like a galaxy pouring down from the nine heavens, its power enough to drown an average person.

This was clearly a massive killing array.

If one couldn’t withstand it, they would surely be swept away by the airflow and turned into dust.

”What terrifying airflow!”

Many inside found it extremely difficult to move even an inch.

The Protective Qi Gang was being crushed, producing bursts of explosive sounds, and had already shown mottled cracks.

Even Gu Hengtong found it troublesome. After all, the airflow was endless, like being in a vast ocean, where a single mistake could lead to being completely swallowed. However, he still maintained a leading position!

”So fast!”

”Oh my god...”

”Who is that?”

But.

At this moment, a chorus of exclamations suddenly came from behind.

Before Gu Hengtong could react, he saw a figure swiftly pass by his side, then vanish in an instant, rushing rapidly ahead.

”What?”

Upon seeing this figure, Gu Hengtong’s expression changed.

His speed was already very fast, but he hadn’t expected someone to surpass him, and this someone was Ye Qingchen.

In an instant.

Gu Hengtong’s face turned completely grim.

He had always held himself in high regard and never considered Ye Qingchen a threat. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have jumped out to intercept him earlier to save Zheng Yuanfeng. But now he had been overtaken!

”Let’s see how long you can stay smug!”

Gu Hengtong grit his teeth in resentment.

Boom!

At this moment, Ye Qingchen was like a raging thunderbolt, leaving all behind in his dust.

”Zoom!”

The thousand-meter-long passage of Linghua Mansion was traversed in a flash, and his fierce demeanor made many cultivators turn their heads involuntarily.

At the end of the passage.

An axe-wielding brawny man, an eighth heaven elder, and others were already standing there. Suddenly hearing the commotion from behind, they turned back curiously. They saw a figure rushing at them like a beast out of its cage, landing beside them.

Seeing it was Ye Qingchen, a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

They clearly hadn’t expected Ye Qingchen to break through this violent airflow so quickly.

”Boom!”

”Open for me!”

As Ye Qingchen arrived, Gu Hengtong also refused to lag behind, bursting out True Qi and quickly rushing out of the violent airflow into Linghua Mansion.

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

After Gu Hengtong, more than twenty others successfully stepped into Linghua Mansion. Ultimately, of the over fifty people gathered outside the mansion, more than twenty died at the entrance, leaving only about thirty who successfully got in.

This situation made many people’s faces change slightly, their expressions becoming grave.

It seems.

Linghua Mansion was indeed filled with deadly traps everywhere!

If one is not careful, not only will they fail to obtain the treasures inside, but they might also end up buried here.

”Is this the main hall inside Linghua Mansion?”

The crowd immediately started looking around.

They saw.

This main hall was enormous. The entire hall was not only immensely bright but also thousands of feet long and wide, appearing incredibly gigantic—as if it were a giant’s residence!

However.

The most eye-catching thing was the droplets of water, each four or five meters large, suspended in the center of the hall.

These water droplets, thirty-six in total, were floating in mid-air, emitting a golden glow.

Just by looking at them, it was clear these water droplets were definitely not ordinary.

Boom!

As everyone was examining these droplets, they saw that the droplets suddenly emitted light, and at the same time, a stream of information flowed into everyone’s minds like a river.

As Ye Qingchen and others processed the information, their eyes grew increasingly bright.

”So that’s what it is!”

”These black droplets are where the Spiritual Splendor Celestial Saint stored treasures!”

”Each droplet contains a treasure... The higher the droplet, the higher the treasure’s grade, whether some magical artifacts, weapons, or cultivation techniques!”

With this information.

The crowd instantly became excited.

Why did they go through great trouble to break into this Linghua Mansion? Wasn’t it precisely for these treasures?

Now.

The treasures were right before their eyes.

At this point, a Profound Pill Seventh Heaven cultivator was already feeling impatient: ”Let me see what treasures are hidden in these droplets first?”

Boom!

As he spoke.

His figure moved toward the highest water droplet.

However.

An unexpected scene occurred.

The moment the Profound Pill Seventh Heaven cultivator touched the droplet, his body trembled violently as if struck by a massive force and was crushed on the spot.

Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!

This scene made the previously eager crowd shiver and gasp.

Indeed.

There’s no such thing as a free lunch.

These treasures are indeed not easy to obtain.

A few more cultivators attempted to force their way to that droplet. But before they even got close, they were slaughtered. Even the luckier ones were blasted away, unable to get near.

”Let me try!”

The axe-wielding brawny man stepped forward, still posing as if brute force could solve everything, trying to rush up. But after much effort, he too had to stop several feet away.

Next, several people tried again, even Gu Hengtong was among them.

But unfortunately.

Still nobody touched the water drop.

”The restriction on this water drop is too strong!”

For a moment, everyone was astonished.

However.

Some people with active minds turned their gaze towards the remaining water drops.

”Whoosh!”

Just then.

A Sword Cultivator of Profound Pill Seventh Heaven darted toward the lowest water drop. Though he used some means, he successfully got close.

Almost as soon as his palm touched the water drop, he was pulled in as if by a mighty force, vanishing within the water drop.

While everyone was astonished.

Just then.

The water drop suddenly trembled.

”Haha, I did it! I got a piece of Earth Grade Lower treasure armor!”

As laughter echoed, the Sword Cultivator flew out of the water drop, with a glowing Silk Treasure Armor in his palm.

It’s actually an Earth Tier treasure!

Everyone’s hearts were inflamed.

No one expected.

Even the lowest water drop contained Earth Tier treasures.

Only listening to the Sword Cultivator continue:

”The water drop I entered before has not only this treasure armor but thousands more inside, each one being Earth Grade Lower. Unfortunately, after I took this one, when I tried to take more, I was directly thrown out by the drop!”

These words shocked everyone’s hearts even more.

This is truly amazing!

Even Ye Qingchen was secretly astounded.

It is known that True Martial Sect, with just a broken Earth Grade Middle stone tablet, can dominate the entire Cyan Continent, holding the top sect position. Although Taixu Continent and Tongxuan Continent are stronger, Earth Tier treasures are very scarce.

Now just one of these water drops contains thousands of Earth Tier treasures?

Is this the foundation of the Celestial Saint powerhouse?

However, Ye Qingchen secretly shook his head.

Common Celestial Saints don’t have such a rich foundation! But Spiritual Splendor Celestial Saint... during his lifetime, even among Celestial Saints, he was extraordinary!

”According to this Sword Cultivator, although there are many treasures in this water drop, each person can only take one!”

”In that case, naturally, the highest water drop has treasures of the highest grade!”

Ye Qingchen pondered gravely in his heart.

Although.

The restriction of the highest water drop is very powerful. But if you don’t try, how will you know if you can enter?

Boom!

Thinking of this, Ye Qingchen’s gaze sharpened, and without any hesitation, he darted toward the highest water drop.

”That kid!”

”He actually wants to challenge that water drop?”

Seeing Ye Qingchen’s actions, everyone present raised their eyebrows.

Gu Hengtong sneered, full of ridicule in his eyes.

It is known.

The restriction within this water drop is so vast. Even he couldn’t get close, and had to stop three meters away. The closer you get to the water drop, the stronger the restriction becomes.

Of course, he wouldn’t voice any warnings; in his view, Ye Qingchen was simply asking for trouble.

Under the gazes of everyone, Ye Qingchen darted out swiftly.

Boom!

Aware of someone approaching.

The water drop trembled fiercely, the restriction erupted, and boundless force swept in from all directions. But Ye Qingchen ignored it, True Qi burst to the extreme, directly blocking the surging force and advancing toward the water drop.

”Boom!”

The water drop seemed enraged.

Tremendous power boiled up once more, sweeping grandly, causing the space to tremble, rippling massive waves.

As the force escalated to its peak, it furiously surged toward Ye Qingchen.

Hiss hiss hiss!

The surroundings echoed with gasps.

Many weaker cultivators felt their scalps tingling. If they were to face this violent force, their bodies would be crushed instantly.

”He’s doomed!”

Many shook their heads silently.

Even from afar, they could feel the overwhelming power of this sweeping torrent.

Gu Hengtong’s expression was full of mockery:

”He’s doomed. Even I didn’t dare to face this force head-on before. Even if that kid doesn’t die, he’ll be severely injured!”

As everyone thought Ye Qingchen would meet the same fate as the previous few Profound Pill Seventh Heaven Martial Artists, perishing under the water drop’s restriction, they saw Ye Qingchen facing the vast torrent.

Not only did he not evade, he actually laughed loudly:

”I’ve been waiting for you!”

Water drop restriction.

This water drop is the core of this restriction.

Ye Qingchen’s eyes shot forth divine rays, his hair dancing without wind. As his aura reached its peak, he suddenly swung his sword.

”Wind Burst Style!”

”Screeech!”

In disbelief, they watched as the vast torrent split in two before him.

At the same time, the water drop’s restriction trembled, momentarily pausing. In that instant, Ye Qingchen spun and darted into it, vanishing from the people’s eyes.

”Bang!”

In the void, the trembling water drop quietly recovered. The torn torrent swiftly reunited.

The surroundings fell into dead silence.

Everyone was dumbfounded, unable to believe.
