Swallowing the Stars: Primordial Heavenly Dragon

Chapter 51 The Land of Treasure

Back at his residence, Yan Yong released his four maids, allowing them to roam freely within his estate.

When you have free time, you can also try to understand the manifest laws here.

Yan Yong himself sat cross-legged in a small pavilion by the lake and began to meditate, digesting the Fire-Void Fusion Law that had been crushed and stuffed into his mouth.

Time flies, and more than half a year has passed in the blink of an eye. The scenery by the lake has changed completely.

Yan Yong spends his days meditating on the laws of fusion. In his spare time, he takes his four maids boating on the lake, or goes to various scenic spots to enjoy the view, exchange insights with other inheritors of the Hongmeng, or listen to these veterans of the universe recount their adventures in hopes of gaining some useful information.

Even at this leisurely pace, Yan Yong felt that he had almost digested the insights he had gained from the previous inheritance.

However, he was not in a hurry to go to the inheritance site to continue receiving the inheritance. Firstly, he had already obtained the opportunity to receive the inheritance, and secondly, his comprehension of the spatial laws had almost reached the limit of the immortal level. If he were to comprehend them further and accidentally break through to the Venerable level, it would be a pity to waste his clone talent before he could use it.

The greatest tragedy in the world then won't be "I don't have a clone, my survival ability is weak, and I died without ever having a clone to save my life, but rather that I clearly have the talent for creating clones but didn't have time to use it before breaking through to the Venerable realm and can no longer use it."

"I've almost fully grasped the laws. Let's try our luck in the treasure land. With my talent, I should be able to get a good treasure."

Without hesitation, Yan Yong returned to the island lord's palace and entered the passage that would transport him to the treasure land.

After a shift in time and space, Yan Yong appeared on a mountain peak. Looking around, he saw a series of mountains, some steep and some strange.

Among the countless mountain peaks are numerous lakes, large and small, which together make up this beautiful and treasure-filled land.

High above the treasure land, streaks of aurora borealis fly continuously, symbolizing that this treasure land is also under the influence of the Five-Colored Aurora Lake and must strictly abide by the rules of the Ancestral God Sect.

As Yan Yong flew along, he wanted to find a powerful figure from the Hong Alliance to introduce him to this treasure trove and secret realm.

"Hahaha, Golden Dragon King, I knew that with your talent you would come to the Ancestral God Sect sooner or later, I didn't expect you to come so soon." A hearty laugh came from a mountain peak below Yan Yong.

Hearing that somewhat familiar laughter, Yan Yong stopped and looked closely.

The newcomer was surrounded by a faint aura of light and law, with a broad face and imposing presence. He wore a black suit of armor embroidered with various exotic beasts.

"So it's King Qin Guang, long time no see." The other party was none other than King Qin Guang, who had fought alongside him in the Yantian Secret Realm.

"Hahaha, what do you mean 'long time no see'? It's only been less than an era and we're already seeing each other again. Brother, did you go to some secret realm that can accelerate time?" King Qin Guang asked suspiciously.

Less than two hundred years is just the time it takes for these powerful individuals, who already possess infinite lifespans, to go into seclusion and take a nap.

"Haha, we did go to a place with a peculiar flow of time," Yan Yong said.

However, it's not entirely untrue; the flow of time is indeed different in Chaos City.

"Come, come, let's all get together. This is a good opportunity to welcome you back." King Qin Guang put his arm around Yan Yong's shoulder and invited him.

Just then, Yan Yong was preparing to inquire about the secret realm and the treasure land, and King Qin Guang, as a veteran king of the human race, must know many friends. The two hit it off immediately.

"Haha, that just so happens that I also wanted to find out some information from the strong members of my human race. Then thank you very much, King Qin Guang." He followed King Qin Guang and prepared to go to the gathering place of the human strong members.

The two continued on their way, and since the distance was not far, they soon arrived at a pavilion nestled against the mountain and beside the lake.

The pavilion is about tens of meters long and wide, and those sitting or lying in it are all powerful human beings who have been granted the title of King.

"King Qin Guang, who is this?" Several of King Qin Guang's friends asked when they first met Yan Yong.

"Hahaha, this is the newly crowned Invincible Golden Dragon King of my human race whom I mentioned before. He fought alongside King Tianshui and me in the extraterrestrial battlefield. His character and strength are both trustworthy."

"Invincible King? It's actually the newly promoted Invincible King Golden Dragon King. Seeing is believing." Several human kings also warmly greeted him.

Firstly, the Golden Dragon King is powerful and deserves respect; secondly, the other party is a friend of King Qin Guang, and since King Qin Guang personally introduced him, it's at least a matter of giving King Qin Guang face.

The news that the Golden Dragon King is a newly crowned invincible king is currently only circulating in some small circles among humans, and no one has deliberately leaked the news that the Golden Dragon King has obtained the inheritance of a hegemon.

After all, those who went to receive the inheritance back then gained many benefits. Selling the Golden Dragon King was equivalent to selling oneself. Even if one didn't become an invincible king, possessing such a treasure would shorten one's lifespan.

Moreover, selling to others not only brings no benefit but also offends people.

King Qin Guang simply introduced the other party as someone who had adventured with him. After all, it was normal to team up with anyone in the many years of the extraterrestrial battlefield, and it was also normal to temporarily join forces with enemy groups for treasure.

"You're all too kind. I don't know your names yet." Yan Yong politely returned the greeting in response to the crowd's enthusiasm.

"Let me introduce you. These are all inheritors of my human race. This is King Chaman, this is King Lishuo, this is King Huanzhen, and this is King Hengdao."

King Qin Guang introduced the other people resting in the pavilion to Yan Yong one by one.

After exchanging greetings, the group, following King Qin Guang's suggestion, brought out some fine wine to welcome Yan Yong and introduced him to some information about this place of heritage.

"Golden Dragon King, this must be your first time visiting the Ancestral Mystic Realm. Have you tried to obtain the treasures hidden in the 108 highest peaks?" King Qin Guang asked enthusiastically.

The other party had just arrived, and the opening of the 108 peaks would cause a huge disturbance, with no recent signs of treasures appearing. This was obviously to stir up a conversation and allow Yan Yong to take the initiative to introduce them.

"I just arrived, and I've only heard that the mountain peaks containing the treasure are the 108th highest in this secret realm, but I haven't had a chance to try them yet."

"Haha, that's easy." King Qin Guang raised his cup and clinked it with Yan Yong's before continuing, "This treasure land is full of hidden treasures. As long as you can meet the requirements of the powerful person who hides the treasure, you can unlock it."

"I have heard the Bauhinia Island Master mention this, but I don't know how to activate this inheritance." Since the other party took the initiative to introduce it, Yan Yong continued along with the other party's words.

"You only need to demonstrate your strength in the Land of Inheritance or the Land of Glory, and have it recorded by the Ancestral God Sect's system, to verify it," King Qin Guang said with a smile. "The moment you step onto that mountain, the system will verify whether you meet the requirements set by the powerful individuals who left treasures on that mountain before."

"Once the conditions are met, the mountain will immediately open, and you will be able to obtain the treasure hidden inside."

"Oh~ So everyone has tried it?" Yan Yong asked curiously. He wanted to try it as soon as he arrived, but he wondered if everyone else felt the same way.

"Hahaha, with treasures so tempting, which powerful person wouldn't try them out first when they come here? In fact, quite a few powerful people have tried them more than once. The most outrageous one is that there is an immortal demon who tries them out every year."

"Ha ha ha ha."

When the topic turned to the immortality of the demon race, which was only offered once a year, a burst of joyful laughter echoed through the pavilion.

"That's perfect, I'll go try it out later too." Yan Yong invited the others, "Why don't you all come with me? We can ask you about that secret place on the way."

"Let's go together, let's go together. It's been a long time since I've tried it. This time, I'll go with the Golden Dragon King and give it a try." The Illusionary True King said, also showing some interest. Even though he knew the chances were slim, he still had to give it a try.

What if the powerful person who possesses the treasure sets some strange request that I happen to be able to fulfill?

"Let's go together." With nothing else to do, the group decided to try their luck at Treasure Mountain.

The group then flew towards the 108 highest peaks where treasures were hidden. Along the way, the group told Yan Yong about some things about the Ancestral Mystic Realm, some of which they had heard about, and some of which they had personally experienced.

Yan Yong's first goal was the highest mountain peak.

The powerful beings who hid the treasure here set it so that you could only obtain one treasure. If you meet the conditions for multiple treasures at the same time and miss the best one, wouldn't that be like picking up a sesame seed and losing a watermelon?

……

"Look, those humans are trying to fly to the highest mountain to get the treasure."

When the powerful alien beings nearby saw Yan Yong and his group flying straight towards the highest peak, they all called their companions to come and watch the spectacle.

"The legend says that the treasure on that mountain was placed there by the Ancestral God himself," a powerful alien exclaimed.

"That's wishful thinking. How could mere humans possibly meet the conditions set by the Ancestral God?" a special life form said disdainfully.

Even these unique and powerful special life forms born from the primordial universe failed to gain the approval of the ancestral gods and unlock the treasure of the first mountain peak. How could the human race possibly do it?
