Chapter 1337 – Dragon’s Reverse Scale
The Devil Saint God Duo were leading several experts from the outer area back to the core area.
“Damn! That brat was actually still in the core area…!” The Devil Saint God Duo were infuriated.
Although they were under the control of Ancient God Nether Spring, their bodies still had their own wills.
Their earlier loss to the Spacetime Sacred Land Ancient God Luo Ling was understandable, but if they couldn’t even capture a single peak Rank Seven junior, they would truly be humiliated.
“What are they hanging around in the core area for?” The red-haired man was astonished.
If it were him, after getting such a haul, he would have definitely left the core area and begun seeking a chance to escape the Heavenly Demon Hall. He didn’t know if that brat and the Heaven’s Legacy Cat were stupid or just ignorant for daring to remain in the core area.
“They’ve entered the western treasury,” the Devil Saint God Duo directly said. This was also their destination.
“What!?” The red-haired man was so stunned that he couldn’t speak.
He had heard many rumors about the objects in the western treasury. Apparently, that was where the Heavenly God Liquid was stored. Other than that, there were other wondrous pills, medicines, and cultivation resources that were just as valuable.
One could say that the western treasury was the treasury that all members of the Heavenly Demon Hall wanted to enter the most. However, ordinary members simply weren’t permitted to enter the treasuries of the Heavenly Demon Hall.
It was just that there was an unexpected variable this time – the Heaven’s Legacy Cat!
“If that brat and the Heaven’s Legacy Cat are captured, all of you will receive 5000 contribution points in addition to a portion of Heavenly God Liquid!” the Devil Saint God Duo declared.
Of course, this was an order that Ancient God Nether Spring had given. This time, Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat had truly enraged Ancient God Nether Spring.
“What? 5000 contribution points and Heavenly God Liquid!?”
“We have to capture those two!”
…
In the blue crystal palace, after obtaining the silver pill, Zhao Feng placed his focus on his next target, which was a light blue glass bottle full of a white crystalline liquid.
“Nine Heavens Lightning power!” Zhao Feng used his Tribulation Lightning power and Lightning Intent to activate the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror.
Boom! Hisss!
The Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror exuded dreadful Lightning power that seemed to engulf the entire room in a net of lightning. Three dragons of lightning quickly condensed within the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror.
These three dragons of crystalline lightning tightly wrapped themselves around the protective barrier and unleashed all their power.
Hissss!
The protective barrier shook and shuddered under the impact of the electricity and energy.
“Break!” Zhao Feng poured immense quantities of Divine Power into the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror.
The three lightning dragons that were nearly drained of energy once more began to crackle with electricity.
Cling! Crack!
At this moment, the protective barrier finally shattered.
“Collect!” With a wave of his hand, Zhao Feng took the blue glass battle into his interspatial dimension.
Zhao Feng headed for his third target. This was a crystal ball that contained a somewhat damaged black scale.
“The last item!”
Zhao Feng immediately activated the Nine Lightning Soul-Refining Mirror to destroy the protective barrier.
After discussing things with the little thieving cat, the two had decided that they would each get three items and then leave. If the Heavenly Demon Hall members arrived by then, their only choice would be to try and break through again. If they hadn’t arrived by then, they would find a place to hide and wait for a chance to escape.
Boom! Bang!
The protective barrier suddenly shattered, allowing him to scoop up the third item.
But on the other side, the little thieving cat seemed to be thinking that Zhao Feng was too slow. After taking a third item, it had moved on to a fourth.
At this time, Zhao Feng really wanted to say that the little thieving cat couldn’t be trusted.
“They’re so slow. Let’s go!”
Zhao Feng had the see-through ability of his God’s Spiritual Eye and the Heaven’s Legacy Cat had its tricks. This allowed the little thieving cat to first understand how all the arrays and traps could be disarmed so that the entire process was carried out extremely swiftly.
This bought them a large period of time, so much time that even after they finished stealing several items and were ready to leave, the members of the Heavenly Demon Hall had still not arrived.
Just a little while after Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat left, a terrifying wave of energy approached.
“Hurry!” the Devil Saint God Duo growled as they rushed over with several Ancient Gods.
However, there was no one inside the treasury, only some treasures that all of them longed for.
“What happened? We came so quickly….”
“That’s Nine Dragon Pearl Liquid, Heavenly Mandate Pill…!”
…
In the secret hall, Ancient God Nether Spring’s body was seething with an extremely sinister aura.
“These two scoundrels…!” Ancient God Nether Spring’s eyes were cold as he squeezed out these words from his mouth.
“Elder, calm your anger!”
“They have still not left the Heavenly Demon Hall!”
The surrounding operators all trembled with fear as they urged.
“I’d like to see where they can hide!” Ancient God Nether Spring roared at the ceiling.
Buzz! Bzzz!
His gloomy eyes exploded with clouds of sinister dark yellow fog. One black figure after another charged out of the viscous mist. Each of these figures possessed a formidable aura. The strongest was a Rank Seven Ancient God while the weakest was peak Rank Six.
Once these Samsara Immortal Bodies emerged, they all floated in the hall.
“Drag them out of hiding!” Ancient God Nether Spring ordered.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
All the Samsara Immortal Bodies departed the secret hall.
At the same time, Ancient God Nether Spring divided his mind into many strands, placing one in each of his Samsara Immortal Bodies. Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat were skilled in concealment, so even if these low-level Samsara Immortal Bodies got close to their hiding spot, they probably wouldn’t be able to sense them. Thus, Ancient God Nether Spring needed to control each of these Samsara Immortal Bodies and even transfer some of his soul energy to them.
“It’s impossible for you to escape!” Ancient God Nether Spring coldly snorted. He placed all his focus on the Samsara Immortal Bodies and began to comb the area.
…
After robbing the western treasury, Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat left the core area. Not long later, they randomly chose a secret chamber to enter.
“Let’s stay here.”
Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat planned to hide in this room.
The Heavenly Demon Hall was still battling with the group from the Spacetime Sacred Land. The Heavenly Demon Hall had undoubtedly activated its defensive array, and even a Rank Nine Ancient God would find it difficult to break. If Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat carelessly showed themselves, they might end up being targeted by everyone.
Swish!
Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat entered the Spacetime Robe Dimension.
“Little thieving cat, what are these three items for?” Zhao Feng immediately took out the three objects he obtained from the western treasury.
There were actually a few items that Zhao Feng recognized in the western treasury, but Zhao Feng followed the plan and only took these three things. He trusted in the little thieving cat’s judgment. There had to be something unusual about these three items.
But before the little thieving cat could even say anything, the cultivating Black Destruction Serpent Dragon suddenly flew over, excitedly looking at the damaged black scale inside the crystal ball.
“Master, how did you get something like this?” the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon immediately asked.
“Mm?” Zhao Feng was surprised. It appeared that the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon knew what this black scale was.
“Master, I can sense the aura of the true Destruction Dragon Race from this black scale!” the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon excitedly said.
It only had an extremely thin Destruction Dragon Race bloodline. Its actual body was that of an ordinary serpent dragon, very far away from true dragons.
If the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon wanted to evolve, it had to do so through two aspects: its bloodline and its body. This Destruction Dragon Race scale could not only advance its bloodline, it could also allow its body to evolve.
Of course, an ordinary scale could not possibly have such an effect, but the scale in Zhao Feng’s hand was a dragon’s reverse scale, the most precious scale for a Destruction Dragon. It was stained with a great deal of the Destruction Dragon Race’s bloodline energy. This was a treasure that the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon had only ever dreamed of.
It would have been even better if this scale was not damaged.
“Master, if you can give me this object, I am willing to serve as your mount for eternity and carry out your orders instantly…!”
At this moment, the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was willing to throw itself at Zhao Feng’s feet.
Although the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon had a sliver of the Destruction Dragon Race bloodline, it was very hard to advance this bloodline. Only the energy obtained through mass destruction could bring about any progress.
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s natural talents were also lacking. Unless it encountered some enormous opportunity, the highest it could reach was Rank Nine.
This Destruction Dragon Race reverse scale gave it a chance of changing its destiny.
“Mm. You are a little too weak right now,” Zhao Feng casually said.
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon lowered its head in silence. It had never expected for its master to progress with such divine speed, needing only a few decades to surpass its peak strength.
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon currently felt sincere loyalty for Zhao Feng.
“I don’t have any use for this thing, so there’s no harm in giving it to you,” Zhao Feng frankly said.
The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s bloodline was still very terrifying. If it was nurtured well, it would be of enormous help to him.
“Many thanks, Master! Then…” The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon glanced at the reverse scale.
“Wait a while.”
Zhao Feng immediately put the scale into his God Eye Dimension.
Even though it was a reverse scale, it was just one and was also damaged. If he duplicated it a few times, the effect would probably be greater.
Meow!
The little thieving cat appeared in front of the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon and patted its chest, appearing very proud.
“Brother Cat, so it was you that had Master take this treasure….” The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon immediately put on a fawning expression and began to flatter the little thieving cat.
It clearly remembered that, when the little thieving cat had finished evolving a while back, it exuded a powerful ancient bloodline that made even its Destruction Dragon Race bloodline tremble in fear. Now that the little thieving cat had been rescued, it apparently experienced another massive transformation that made the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon even more incapable of seeing through it.
“Brother Cat, in the past, I was ignorant. In the future, I will follow you. If something good comes along, please don’t forget me….” The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon felt deep admiration for the little thieving cat’s methods, particularly its ability to find treasure.
Just like that, the mighty Black Destruction Serpent Dragon became the little thieving cat’s little brother.
Zhao Feng speechlessly glanced at his pet and mount.
Suddenly, his face flickered.
“Someone is coming. How did they find me so quickly?”
Within the Spacetime Robe Dimension, Zhao Feng didn’t need to particularly focus to sense nearby spatial ripples.
He activated his left eye’s see-through ability.
“So it was her.” Zhao Feng’s expression relaxed.
