What? You opened a resort on the battlefield of all races?

"An alien treasure?"

Luo Yurou, Liu Bo, and the others were all taken aback.

They've indeed killed quite a few alien royals during this period. But as for treasures...

No, there really isn't.

Luo Yurou frowned and carefully recalled the events.

"Shop owner, senior."

Luo Yurou hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and spoke.

"No, there really isn't."

"After we cleared out the alien royal family members during this period, we brought back their corpses, along with their essence blood and soul fire."

"If there really is a treasure of that caliber, we shouldn't miss it."

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Liu Bo nodded repeatedly beside him.

"Shopkeeper, I can't speak for everything else, but when it comes to cleaning up the battlefield, I'm not bragging, I'm quite professional."

Liu Bo patted his chest, looking proud.

"This is even more thorough than when I had a boyfriend as a kid; my mom checked my phone more meticulously!"

Wei Xiaoran raised an eyebrow: "You're in a relationship too?"

Liu Bo: "..."

"Xiao Ran, listen to my excuses..."

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianlin ignored Liu Bo's attempt to explain, reached up and touched his chin, frowning slightly.

"That shouldn't be the case."

It's not that he doesn't trust these people.

Luo Yurou is a very serious and meticulous girl.

Although Liu Bo can be unreliable at times, he's more reliable than anyone else when it comes to things that can earn him credits.

However, according to the information provided by the system, these kinds of treasures should all be in the hands of the royal families of various alien races.

Just like the Burning Tree of the Blood Elf race and the Azure Ocean Pearl of the Bluefin Whale race.

Logically speaking, these people should have found none of the royal family members after purging so many.

unless--

These treasures are not on them.

But as royalty, where would they put their most precious treasure if they didn't even bring it with them?

Should I leave my luggage at a Cainiao Post Station?

Xu Tianlin felt more and more uneasy.

Seeing Xu Tianlin's somewhat solemn expression, Liu Bo cautiously approached him.

"Shopkeeper, do you need these things...?"

Xu Tianlin nodded.

"Um."

"The resort's upgrade definitely requires these things."

Upon hearing this, Liu Bo's expression immediately changed.

Resort upgrade!

These four words were more exciting to him than the phrase "rare and precious materials" to most people.

What does a resort upgrade mean?

This means new facilities and new services.

This means there are more things that can give them an unfair advantage.

From the Tenfold Cultivation Room to the Evil Qi Purification SPA, then to the Figurine Shop, and finally to Little Macau.

Every time a resort is upgraded, it utterly shatters their perceptions.

The shop owner is currently stuck on the upgrade process.

How can we tolerate that?

That is absolutely unacceptable!

Liu Bo slapped his thigh on the spot, filled with righteous indignation.

"A cunning villain!"

"These damned aliens must be pretending to fight us to the death while secretly hiding the treasure."

"That's so insidious!"

Just as Liu Bo was about to continue denouncing the shameless behavior of the alien race, a voice came from the side.

"wrong."

The sound wasn't loud, but it made several people turn their heads to look at it at the same time.

The one who spoke was Xilin, who was sitting obediently at Xu Tianlin's feet.

When Liu Bo saw Xilin speak, his previously passionate expression instantly softened considerably.

I almost forgot, there's also an Abyss Demon King sitting right next to me.

Xu Tianlin's eyes lit up.

He looked at Xilin and suddenly remembered.

This guy used to be known as the origin of all races.

Xu Tianlin asked with some surprise, "You knew?"

Xilin nodded slowly.

He sat upright, his eyes revealing a strange sense of aging and world-weariness.

"The treasure you speak of should be the ancient primordial seed."

"Ancient Primordial Race?"

Luo Yurou repeated it subconsciously.

She had never seen this name in her textbooks before.

Even Cangyun Wuda's "Record of Treasures of the Heavens" does not contain any relevant information.

Xilin raised his head and continued to speak slowly.

"This involves a very long history, so long that it predates the formation of the abyss."

At this point, Xilin's tone became noticeably more smug.

Liu Bo silently moved half a step closer to Luo Yurou and lowered his voice.

"Yu Rou, don't you think the way he's acting right now is just like my second uncle after he's had too much to drink, when he starts telling stories about building the road at the village entrance back in the day?"

Luo Yurou gently stepped on Liu Bo's foot.

"listen."

Liu Bo immediately shut up.

Xilin continued:

"Before the Demon Emperor descended and the Abyss was born, the alien races you spoke of were actually the natives of the Abyss region."

"Back then, there were no Abyss Monsters like we have now."

"There wasn't such a strong sense of darkness, slaughter, and destruction as there is now. Although the various races fought each other, they still maintained a certain balance."

Xu Tianlin raised an eyebrow upon hearing this, looked down at Xilin, and his gaze turned sinister.

"Lord Demon Emperor?"

Xilin hesitated for a moment, then immediately shook his head like a rattle drum and changed his tune.

"No, no!"

"I mean, that Demon Emperor!"

"Compared to you, boss, that Demon Emperor is nothing!"

Xu Tianlin smiled and decided to go back and strengthen the onboarding training for new employees.

"and then?"

"Then the Demon Emperor... ptooey ptooey ptooey"

"With the birth of that Demon Emperor, the Abyss appeared. The power of the laws of darkness, slaughter, and destruction converged wildly."

"Those races that were not protected by the ancient primordial seeds could not withstand the erosion of the Demon Emperor's laws, and their bodies, souls, and bloodlines all underwent changes."

"They lost their original consciousness and heritage. They became the abyssal monsters you see today."

Liu Bo rolled his eyes and muttered to himself.

"This Demon Emperor sounds like a massive source of pollution?"

Xilin's ears twitched, and he glanced at Liu Bo.

"That's one way to put it."

"Other races that possessed the ancient primordial seeds escaped the abyss region by using the power of the primordial seeds."

"That is, we have now arrived at the battlefield of the heavens."

"However, although they escaped, they cannot completely escape the influence of the Demon Emperor's laws."

"Darkness, slaughter, and the power of destruction have long since seeped into their blood and the heritage of their race."

"Therefore, these races have become more aggressive to varying degrees."

"The closer you get to the abyss, the deeper the impact."

"The stronger the bloodline of a race, the more pronounced the backlash it suffers."

Luo Yurou nodded thoughtfully.

This explains many things that humans have never understood.

Why do some alien races, despite possessing complete civilizations, traditions, and wisdom, still seem to be born with hostility towards humans?

It's not simply a struggle for interests or a grab for resources.

Rather, it was the influence of the Abyss Demon Emperor.

"Only a few races with powerful primordial energy are immune to the effects of the Demon Emperor's laws."

Xilin continued.

"For example, the blood elves in the resort, and that bluefin whale with sea patterns."

"Their ancient primordial genes are well preserved, so the race itself has not been distorted by the Demon Emperor's laws."

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianlin frowned even more deeply.

"That's even stranger."

"If these ancient primordial beings are so important to them, why weren't any of them among the royal family members who were wiped out?"

Xilin raised his paw and scratched his head.

"That's exactly the problem."

"Logically speaking, the royal families of these races would never leave their ancient ancestral lineage, even if they were to die."

"The ancient primordial seed is no ordinary treasure."

"It is the core of the race's continuation. It is also their last barrier against the erosion of the Demon Emperor's laws."

"For these races, royalty may die, and territory may be lost. But the ancient primordial race will never disappear without a reason."

After Xilin finished speaking, the scene was quiet for a moment.

Xu Tianlin pinched his chin, quickly calculating in his mind.

With two Dao Laws of the Dao Integration Realm as prizes, the explosive popularity of the Macau branch was almost foreseeable.

It's obvious that those martial artists have already rushed over.

They were all clamoring to change their fate.

In addition, the resort headquarters is constantly contributing a massive number of construction points to him.

The real obstacle to system upgrades right now is the aesthetics factor.

"Don't worry, shop owner!"

"We'll help you find it!"

Liu Bo immediately took a step forward, pounding his chest loudly.

"What ancient primordial seeds, what alien treasures? As long as they're still in the battlefield of the heavens, I, Liu Bo, will dig them up from the ground!"

Luo Yurou nodded as well.

"Shop owner, we'll keep an eye on it."

The others nodded in agreement.

However, Liu Bo quickly turned his attention to Xilin.

Xilin knows the origin of the ancient primordial species, so he naturally knows how to find it.

These are professionals.

wrong.

Professional Demon King.

Liu Bo's mind raced, and he immediately put on a warm and enthusiastic smile.

He darted to Xilin's side and reached out to hook his arm around Xilin's neck.

He stopped halfway through extending his hand.

After all, this one, though seemingly docile, is still the Demon King of the Abyss.

So his outstretched hand paused in mid-air, and then very naturally changed to a tactical head scratch.

"Cough cough."

"Of course, it would be even better if Brother Dog could help!"

Xilin slowly turned his head to look at Liu Bo, his mouth slightly open, revealing sharp teeth.

"Brother Dog?"

Liu Bo felt a chill run down his spine.

"A term of respect".

"That's definitely a term of respect!"

Xilin's eye twitched.

Xu Tianlin listened with amusement.

"Alright."

"Xilin, I need the ancient primordial seed you mentioned. Could you help me find it?"
