They both arrived at a small, ordinary-looking building. A simple old man was sitting in a chair, reading a book. He looked at both of them after placing his book down.
Kai suddenly felt a shiver run down his spine. He felt like prey in front of the old man.
'Seriously, why do all big shots have the habit of being low-key.' Kai thought, speechless about the situation.
"Elder Yang, I'm here to take a treasure for this junior." Yang Liwei politely stated the purpose of the visit.
"But the sect did not ntion anything about that to ." The old man, Elder Yang, questioned.
"No, it was not decided by the sect. I'm here to use my authority to take a treasure." Yang Liwei explained the situation.
"Are you sure? You only have two chances remaining. If you take one for this little guy, you will be left with only one chance to use the authority." Elder Yang asked doubtfully. He did not believe Yang Liwei would waste his precious chance on an outsider like this.
"I'm sorry, Elder. I have already given my word, so I had to keep it. I also didn't have any descendants left on my lineage, so the authority won't be much use to ." Yang Liwei replied truthfully.
"Since it is your matter, I won't interfere, but you can only take one treasure. Also, little guy, I hope you will use this opportunity wisely. Although the sect doesn't have any tier 5 treasures, the treasury has a lot of tier 4 treasures. So, choose them after checking everything, and you only have one chance; we don't take any returns." Elder Yang advised Kai about the situation.
He knows that the old man may have so status due to guarding the treasury, but he did expect that even the grand elder had to respect him.
Kai and Yang Liwei went inside the building, and Kai was surprised to look around. The interior is different from the outside; the space inside here is capable of holding more than ten large villas.
"The reason the space inside here is so large is due to spatial extension. It works on the sa principle as the storage ring, but it is done by a lot of spatial experts since the size of the building is very large compared to the storage ring." The grand elder explained as he saw the surprised look of Kai.
'So, they made the whole building into a living storage ring.' thought Kai. The storage ring was capable of holding living things since the condition inside it wouldn't allow it, but they changed it here.
"Go; choose sothing necessary. If you have any doubts, ask ." Yang Liwei said it and went outside to et Elder Yang.
'I should choose sothing that will help in the future.' thought Kai. He decided to select sothing that was a very rare find rather than a valuable treasure.
Kai started looking for tier 4 treasures since everything below could be found by himself.
"Wow, it is a Pure White Lotus," Kai said in surprise. The pure white lotus is one of the most sought-after treasures for alchemists. It has a very high healing amount and is capable of bringing a saint from the brink of death.
Kai also found a lot of rare dicines and weapons. He does not have the need for weapons currently, and he also does not need any type of healing dicine since he has the evergreen ability to heal himself.
After searching for half a day, Kai shortlisted three things.
'What should I choose?' Kai contemplated. He needs these three treasures, but sadly, he can select only one of them.
The first one is Pure White Lotus, since it may be helpful in any dangerous situation. It is the only healing herb that Kai badly needs. Since he had to risk his life in the secret realm, he wanted it very badly.
The second one is the Nirvana Pill, a Tier 4 pill capable of removing the impurities in the body and improving strength. It can also be used for advancent in the process of breaking into the divine realm, and it has a lot of chances of bringing miracles during nirvana.
The third one is the body of the Saint Emperor realm's Dark Dragon. It isn't a pure-blooded true dragon, but a mixed-blooded dragon. Even though it is not a pureblood dragon, its bloodline concentration is almost comparable to that of pureblooded dragons. It was killed during the critical mont of breaking into the supre realm. So, it is almost a Tier 5 treasure.
After contemplating for a long ti, Kai selected one of them and left the place.
"Are you sure about your choice?" Elder Yang asked after seeing Kai co out of the Treasury. He watched Kai's every move inside the Treasury to prevent any stealing.
"Yes, Elder Yang. It was my final decision," Kai replied confidently.
Kai and Yang Liwei left the place with teleportation, and after they left, the old man had a nostalgic look on his face.
"I didn't expect that he would choose that treasure at last. It seems he may have so fate with it." Elder Yang muttered lightly and continued, "He is a very mysterious boy, even though I'm not able to see through him. What is special about him? Whatever, my job is to only guard this place."
After saying this, he started reading the sa book.
Kai and Yang Liwei arrived at the serene peak in a few monts.
"The entrance to the secret realm will be opened in a month. So, try to increase your strength during this period, and don't try to break through. The chances of finding a good treasure inside the secret realm are very high." Yang Liwei advised Kai and inford him about the secret realm.
"Thank you for the information, grand elder. I will follow your order." Kai said and excused himself. He went directly to the Refining Tower and paid directly for three weeks.
Kai decided to increase his physical strength and willpower this month. He felt that his physical strength still had room for developnt and also decided to cultivate his willpower.
He did not cultivate his Will path after breaking into the will cognition realm. So, he decided to cultivate the peak of the realm to balance both paths.
'The ground floor is different from the upper floor.' thought Kai in satisfaction. When he ca with Jas, both of them rented the top floor due to Jas having insufficient funds to rent the ground floor.
The Red Scarlet Fla is located below the tower, so the concentration of fire elents is higher on the lower floors than on the upper floors. But the rent for the lower floor, especially the ground floor, is also very high.
In the first place, Kai should have co to the ground floor since it isn't suitable for supernatural realm cultivators, but Kai had a strong body and convinced the guard to book a room for him.
Kai started absorbing the fire elent in a small amount into his body. His body slowly started to heat up and beco a red color after so ti. He continued to cultivate like this and forget the passage of ti.
Anna's POV
While Kai was cultivating, Anna was also doing the sa. She's currently in the foundation establishnt realm and has achieved eight layers. She is only one step away from achieving a heavenly foundation, but no matter how hard she tries, the Qi inside her body doesn't change a single bit.
"Is this the limit of my talent? Why am I unable to progress?" Anna muttered in a sad voice. She tried for a long ti to achieve a heavenly foundation, but she wasn't able to do that. The reason she's only in the mortal realm is that she was trying to achieve a ninth-layer foundation.
'No, I should not give up. If I don't have such a foundation, winning the battle of destiny may only beco a dream,' thought Anna. She knows that she has to achieve a heavenly foundation to equally compete with other geniuses from peak factions. Her goal is to revive her family, and only emperor realm experts are capable of doing that, so she has to do it at any cost.
She cultivated for like a week without even drinking water, but no matter how much she tried, her Qi didn't purify a single bit.
'Why? Why? Why is this always happening to ?' Anna muttered in despair; she finally believed that she wasn't qualified to achieve the Heavenly Foundation.
Even though the heavenly foundation is not a criterion for becoming emperor since only supre beings can participate in the battle, it is enough to achieve a supre foundation to beco emperor, but it is impossible to win the battle of destiny with such a foundation.
Anna, who is in despair, suddenly becos confused, and her expression changes from despair into thinking. After contemplating for almost five minutes, her expression beca firm.
Anna started cultivating after changing her expression a myriad of tis. This ti her Qi purified visible to the naked eye; it started gathering and finally broke the nightmarish barrier.
"So, this is how it feels to have a heavenly foundation," Anna muttered in satisfaction. Her breakthrough has beco a mystery, as no one knows how she suddenly achieved a heavenly foundation when she is unable to achieve it.
"Even though it is a little dangerous, it is worth a shot," Anna muttered in satisfaction. Her face is full of smiles and happiness, unlike her previous despair.
