Chapter 363: Chapter 0272: Treasure Hunt Mission_2 Chapter 363: Chapter 0272: Treasure Hunt Mission_2 Qi Tian had a long sleep of two days. After waking up, he refreshed himself with a bath, ate a al, and then leisurely left the inn.
Walking down the street, it didn’t take long for Qi Tian to return to Wanjie Comrce. He planned to take another stroll around and see if he could find any treasures that might help him. But as soon as Qi Tian arrived at Wanjie Comrce, he saw soone walking out with a notice and posting it on the notice board outside.
The notice board was covered with posters of various colors, but this one was different – a golden-edged poster. Those familiar with Wanjie Comrce knew that once such a poster was put up, it signified a massive opportunity, ensuring substantial benefits for those who seized it.
Qi Tian didn’t understand this, but he saw several cultivators passing by him rushing over like madn as soon as they saw the notice from Wanjie Comrce to tear the golden-edged poster. There was only one poster, but several people wanted to tear it down, leading to a fight.
At this mont, the cultivator who just posted the poster walked out again from Wanjie Comrce and yelled at the fighting cultivators: “Stop it, everyone! This ti, Wanjie Comrce is recruiting people. There’s no limit to the number. You can all co and accept the task.”
The cultivators who nearly fought each other to death stopped and ran into Wanjie Comrce to accept the task.
Curiosity sparked in Qi Tian’s mind. He approached the notice board and looked at the newly posted poster. The content was simple: Wanjie Comrce was recruiting treasure hunters. Any cultivator with treasure hunting experience could apply. As long as they could help Wanjie Comrce find treasures, they would receive a gift from Wanjie Comrce, which would surely greatly enhance their abilities.
Qi Tian was intrigued. Wanjie Comrce was known for its wealth. If they promised a reward, it wouldn’t be just so casual thing. If he could help them find the treasure they needed, he might even get a treasure from them that could help him break through formations.
After so careful consideration, Qi Tian found this task feasible. Therefore, he walked into Wanjie Comrce and joined the cultivators who had co to accept the task.
Soon, Qi Tian t a manager of Wanjie Comrce, a Gold Core Stage cultivator nad He Miao. He was one of the thirty-six managers of Wanjie Comrce and was responsible for releasing tasks to all interested cultivators. However, there was one rule he needed to ntion: anyone willing to accept the task couldn’t wear any storage equipnt. If they insist on carrying, they could, but they had to wear a magic tool issued by Wanjie Comrce that seals storage equipnt. Throughout the task, the magic tool must not be removed. If it’s removed halfway, the person will be treated as an enemy by Wanjie Comrce. If they didn’t agree to Wanjie Comrce’s conditions, they could leave now.
None, including Qi Tian, chose to leave. Opportunities were rare, even if they ca with so harsh conditions. Many cultivators chose to remove their storage bags and other space equipnt, temporarily handing them over to Wanjie Comrce for safekeeping, trusting Wanjie Comrce’s reputation.
However, so chose to carry their space equipnt with them, and then wear the magic tool distributed by Wanjie Comrce that sealed their space equipnt. Qi Tian was one of them. He didn’t fully trust Wanjie Comrce’s reputation and definitely didn’t think of giving them his belongings for safekeeping. Firstly, if he gave his storage equipnt with so many treasures stuffed inside to Wanjie Comrce, it would be too conspicuous. Secondly, the top-grade spirit stones, the Bloodline Secret Scripture, the shards of the Demon-Seeing Mirror he just acquired, and the valuable treasures he obtained before were too precious to entrust to Wanjie Comrce.
Of course, Qi Tian didn’t fully trust the magic tool distributed by Wanjie Comrce that sealed storage equipnt either. But he had a solution – he could make the Heavenly Dao Engine swallow the magic tool when necessary. Then he could freely open his storage bag.
After Wanjie Comrce had dealt with everyone’s space equipnt, He Miao, the Gold Core Stage cultivator, finally disclosed the specifics of the treasure hunt task. It turned out that this task was related to the Innate Spirit Treasure Level Shovel that appeared in the auction.
Ever since the shovel appeared at the auction, it had attracted the attention of many powerful figures. After the auction ended, so powerful figures had approached, intending to buy the shovel. If their offer was reasonable, even slightly lower than fifty top-grade spirit stones, the owner of the shovel might reluctantly sell. But the powerful figure’s offer was low – only ten top-grade spirit stones – far below the seller’s expectations, so the seller refused directly.
This denial led to a major disaster. On a dark night, the powerful figure infiltrated the seller’s ho, massacring the whole family. However, the seller was more cautious than anticipated. Before the powerful figure arrived, the seller had taken the shovel and fled, escaping the massacre. Yet, after failing to find the shovel, the powerful figure used tracking secret skills to find the seller and launched an assassination.
The seller, sensing the danger, threw away the shovel before the powerful figure could catch him. Under the cover of vast darkness, he tossed the shovel randomly without paying any attention to when or where it fell. When the powerful figure finally caught up with the seller, despite using torture and even soul-searching skills, he couldn’t find the exact location where the shovel was thrown, only knowing that the seller had thrown it to the southern part of Wanjie City.
The powerful figure searched the southern part of the city but found nothing. South City was where Wanjie City dumped all kinds of garbage. There were more than a dozen large garbage dumps, each spanning over ten miles, filled with various types of garbage from Wanjie City, including household waste, cultivation waste, etc. They stood hundreds of feet high, at the very least.
When the seller threw the shovel, he was sword-flying in the air. The shovel, being an Innate Spiritual Treasure, fell from the sky and landed in the garbage dump, sinking dozens of feet into the pile. This was quite normal. Unless you had very special ans, finding the hidden shovel was impossible.
Now, many forces that got the news were organizing manpower to hunt for treasures in South City. Each of them was offering generous rewards – after all, it was an Innate Spiritual Treasure Level shovel worth a fortune. Even the highest rewards would be worth it.
After He Miao gave a brief introduction to the situation, he began distributing items to each cultivator accepting the task. The items included a standard flying sword, a shovel, a pickaxe, and a basket. These tools were all magic items capable of piercing through a steel wall.
He Miao announced that every cultivator taking on the task could now start the treasure hunt. During the process, all treasures found – except the shovel – belonged to the individual. However, there was one rule: before determining the final ownership, everyone’s finds had to be verified by Wanjie Comrce. Private possession or concealnt would attract severe penalties from Wanjie Comrce, including death.
After He Miao finished his instructions, Wanjie Comrce organized a caravan to send Qi Tian and others outside the South City Gate of Wanjie City.
