So many big shots gathered together, you can't even imagine what kind of world-defying, heaven-and-earth seizing treasure this must be to warrant such a scene!
You know you definitely can't snatch it, but you have to go experience it, so you can inherit this memory.
Next simulation, maybe you can get a step ahead of all these big shots and successfully intercept the treasure!
Right now, you don't even need to follow the treasure's scent anymore.
The closer you get to where the treasure is emerging, the more people there are.
In the sky and on the ground, each and every one of them is ridiculously impressive and imposing, as if they've come to attend a grand showing-off convention.
"BOOM!!!"
Suddenly, a deafening, earth-shattering roar came from ahead. White light and flames transformed into a mushroom cloud that shot into the sky. A terrifying shockwave rushed towards you, sweeping you up and carrying you flying out for over a thousand meters!
At your advanced age, a fall like this is not good!
Huh?
Talk about a coincidence, right where you were about to land, there was a crocodile demon sunbathing.
"I am your daddy!!!"
Vitality Energy surged a hundredfold!
Your physical body's strength instantly increased. This fall smashed the crocodile demon to death, while you were completely unharmed.
"Thanks."
You casually skinned the crocodile, planning to make a belt out of it.
You looked towards the explosion's epicenter. The various factions and their people stood firm and unmoving, as if the explosion just now was merely a gentle breeze.
"Did they start fighting?"
You were just about to move closer when you suddenly noticed many streams of light flying out from the explosion's center point.
These streams of light traced parabolic arcs through the air, landing in all directions, numerous in number.
Among those people on the golden carriages, the flying boats traversing the sky, and those riding on clouds and mist, quite a few displayed their various skills, chasing after these streams of light.
Among them, those capable of direct Flight through the Air were actually not many; most relied on flying Spirit Artifacts.
"These must be treasures!"
You saw one stream of light that looked like it was about to crash right near you!
And your location was far from the central area, and you didn't see anyone chasing it over here either.
Opportunity has arrived!
"BANG!!"
The stream of light hit the ground!
You activated Rocket Step, flames spurting from your feet to accelerate. With a "whoosh" sound, you shot across the ground, arriving at the edge of the large crater the stream of light had smashed into.
You saw an ancient bronze sword.
This sword was half a person's height, with a simple and unadorned appearance. Just looking at it made your heart feel a chill, as if waves of killing intent swirled around it.
"A treasure, it must be a treasure!" the Ten Thousand Souls Banner muttered.
"A treasure is a bit of a stretch. It's merely an Earth-Grade battle sword."
"Earth-Grade?!"
Earth-Grade Spirit Artifacts certainly couldn't compare to Immortal Artifacts like the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, but Earth-Grade was already a rare and precious thing.
Back in Divine Arms City, when you wanted to make an Earth-Grade body for the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, the artifact refiner quoted you an astronomical refining fee, which directly made you back off.
In some sects, Earth-Grade Spirit Artifacts are also at the level of treasures used to safeguard the sect!
Excitedly, you jumped into the crater, ready to pull out the sword.
"Amitabha..."
Your vision blurred for a moment. A bald monk had beaten you to the bottom of the crater, pulled out the bronze battle sword in one swift motion, and casually stuffed it into a small cloth bag he had, where it disappeared.
The monk had six ordination scars on his head and wore a patched-up red kasaya.
"Hey! Bald donkey! I saw this first!"
The monk turned to look at you, his face wearing an expression of compassion for all living beings.
"Benefactor, please don't get agitated. This object has a connection with my Buddha. This humble monk is merely retrieving it on behalf of the Buddha."
"Oh, for fu..."
Before you could finish your complaint, your vision blurred again. The bald donkey left behind an afterimage where he stood and vanished!
You knew he was a master.
But that didn't stop you from being filled with rage.
Even though items obtained in the simulation can't be taken out, that doesn't affect you having a good time within the simulation!
For the you in the simulation, what's the difference between inside and outside the simulation? It's all your precious life!
Fortunately, heaven was kind. After a while, another explosion sounded from the central area, and another large batch of treasures flew out!
"Hahaha! Come on, come on, come to daddy's arms!"
You chased the streams of light, sprinting wildly across the ground.
At this moment, you had a feeling like chasing an airdrop in a battle royale game.
"BANG!!"
Another treasure smashed into the ground, and it was also the kind no one was chasing.
You moved closer to look. It was a jade slip!
"A book slip? Is this thing also a Spirit Artifact?"
The Ten Thousand Souls Banner was well-traveled and knowledgeable.
"It is a Spirit Artifact, but it should be used to record cultivation techniques. It's not easily damaged."
"If it's this carefully preserved, it must be a High-Grade technique!"
"Think bigger. At least Earth-Grade."
"Hiss!!"
You quickly lunged over.
"Amitabha... Benefactor, this is a Demonic Path cultivation technique. It must not be touched. Allow this humble monk to take it away for destruction, lest it bring calamity upon the world."
That damn bald guy from before was here again.
He calmly picked up the jade slip, patted off the dust on it, and solemnly placed it into his cloth bag.
"Bald donkey! I fuck your Buddha! Don't just target me! There are so many people snatching treasures, go intercept them!"
The monk smiled slightly, placing his palms together.
"Many masters are gathered here. This humble monk can only defeat you."
You: "..."
Not only were you left speechless, you actually felt what he said made perfect sense.
"For someone so weak to appear here, this humble monk is also quite surprised."
"None of your business..."
"The benefactor should be grateful that the one robbing you of your treasure is this humble monk. As an ordained monk, compassion is our guiding principle, so this humble monk will not kill for loot."
"Where's the compassion in you robbing my stuff?? Wait, you admit you're robbing me, don't you!"
Another loud boom came from the distance.
The monk vanished in the blink of an eye, running faster than anyone, showing not a hint of the supposed desirelessness of an ordained monk.
Although he ran fast, you could still track his trail, following behind him.
The monk picked up another treasure, making your eyes turn green with envy.
"Benefactor, why are you following this humble monk?"
"Since any treasure I pick up will just be snatched by you, and you said you can only defeat me, right? I'm waiting for you to get killed by someone else, so I can loot your corpse."
"Benefactor, at your advanced age, you show no respect for your elders. Amitabha..."
"None of your business..."
The Ten Thousand Souls Banner's voice sounded in your mind; he was mocking you.
"Hahaha... showing no respect for your elders... hahaha... I can laugh about this for a year."
You noticed this monk was still quite cautious.
The central area would occasionally erupt with a batch of treasures, but this monk kept to the periphery, picking up the ones that slipped through the , rather than going to compete with others.
Following him was boring anyway, so you might as well ask for some information.
"Bald donkey, why are there so many good things flying around here?"
"People admire strength, and so do artifacts."
"What does that mean?"
"People gather around the strong. These Spirit Artifacts are the same."
"You make it sound like Spirit Artifacts have life."
"All things between heaven and earth possess life."
"Alright, alright, stop preaching. So, what kind of powerful artifact-being is here that can attract so many precious Spirit Artifacts?"
"Benefactor, do you know of Immortal Artifacts?"
You know, you know all too well. You have one inside you right now.
"I know. Low, Middle, High, Earth, Heaven. Immortal Artifacts are above Heaven-Grade Spirit Artifacts!"
"And what is above Immortal Artifacts?"
