I'm not just human!

Benedict's gem shark was turquoise, which made her little face turn white from the cold as she gnawed on it, but she still couldn't stop eating it.

Miao Kelu's Gem Shark was bright red and so spicy that she gasped for breath, but once the spiciness subsided slightly, she continued eating.

These supernatural creatures, known as gem sharks, have a penchant for searching for extraordinary plants on the ocean floor to feed on.

Furthermore, lemon-colored gem sharks prefer sour flavors, blue-green gem sharks prefer mint or iced flavors, and bright red gem sharks prefer spicy flavors... This is why they have different tastes after being dried into extraordinary dried fish.

However, they are said to be quite delicious, and smooth and chewy, making them a favorite of doll girls, catgirls, siren and other humanoid supernatural beings.

"Xia Fa, are you done talking?"

Seeing Xia Fa enter, Benedict immediately swallowed the remaining half of the gem shark in her hand, shivering from the cold, but then ran over and hugged him again.

"Hey hey, you've worked hard! Come see the gift I brought back for you!"

As she spoke, Benedict waved her delicate, snow-white hand on the tea table, and countless precious lights fell from the sky, landing on the table.

At the same time, transparent vortexes appeared in the surrounding air, rotating counterclockwise.

Xia Fa immediately sensed that the flow of space and time in this bedroom had been greatly disrupted, and the degree of isolation was no less than that inside his Red Silver Star Shell!

"This is what my teacher taught me: always be aware of counter-divination and counter-spying. How about that? Aren't I amazing?"

Benedict noticed Shafa's expression and then gave a smug explanation.

Xia Fa withdrew his gaze and smiled:

"Indeed impressive."

Even so, he still felt a little worried.

Because these constantly counter-clockwise rotating vortexes always reminded him of the "reversal" power that Benedict used against the pure silver giant.

But now is not the time to investigate this, since even Beneath herself doesn't know what's going on, and neither has Heatherbury, the former Queen of the Dolls.

Xia Fa decided to observe Benedict for a while, while gathering as much relevant information as possible, and then investigate slowly.

Meowkor stretched out her arms for balance and trotted over in a flash.

Her fluffy cat tail curled up, accompanied by a tinkling sound, and then she took down a small golden bell and shook it on the table.

Instantly, countless rays of light fell from the golden bell, almost piling up the tea table into a small mountain.

“Master, this is a treasure that my sister Beneath and I found in the lair of the pure silver giants. We each took half, and we’re giving it all to you!”

Miao Ke Lu spoke up, then thought for a moment and handed the small golden bell in her palm to Xia Fa.

"And this is our catgirl clan's secret treasure, the Golden Bell. Hmm... I overheard you talking about a survival challenge outside the door. I'll give this to you, Master, so you'll be safer then!"

Xia Fa was completely taken aback when Miao Kelu actually gave him the golden bell.

Although I know that Nyakoro is very naive and innocent, that's another matter.

He did need the mysterious treasure, especially the defensive kind, but Xia Fa couldn't just take it like that. So he smiled and said:

"Consider it a loan. I'll pay you back when I get back this time."

Unexpectedly, Nyako waved her hand magnanimously:

"Hey, I've already acknowledged you as my master, so what's mine is yours. Why are you being so polite with me? Just take it."

Xia Fa chuckled slightly:

"No matter what, this is one of the sacred objects of your catgirl clan. So, I'll borrow it for now and return it to you when I no longer need it."

Seeing his resolute tone, Miao Kelu didn't want to argue with him. After all, ever since she recognized Xia Fa as her master, she had always kept in mind that Xia Fa was her master, so of course she had to listen to her master.

"By the way, Master, after we signed the contract, I..."

A look of reminiscence flickered in Miao Ke's open-air blue eyes:

"Although I was unconscious at the time, I did see some... um... very strange, revelations?"

She clearly didn't know much about divination and esoteric knowledge, so she ended with an uncertain tone.

Xia Fa pondered for a moment and said:

"Tell me whatever you find insightful, feel free to speak your mind."

Meowko said:

"Okay! I saw it... I saw it... a black figure, as big as a planet, and I also saw... um... huge fires burning everywhere."

Xia Fa confirmed:

"that's it?"

Meowko nodded her little head vigorously:

"Okay, that's all!"

Xia Fa hesitated. A black figure almost the size of a planet, flames burning everywhere, and it just so happened to appear at the ceremony where Miao Kelu had just recognized him as her master... What did this mean?

After thinking for a while and seeing that he couldn't find a clue, he had no choice but to calm himself down and turn his gaze to the glass tea table.

At this moment, Benedict and Meowkor, the two girls, one big and one small, sat on the sofa together and started munching on the golden dried fish they had just taken out.

The dried golden ribbonfish was truly "dried fish," extremely dry. The two girls munched on it with gusto, many bits of meat falling off, but they looked completely satisfied, even squinting their eyes.

Xia Fa chuckled, but didn't bother them. He first looked at the fist-sized pure white light-chasing silver crystal on the tea table.

Perhaps it was because this pure white, light-seeking silver crystal was so large that even from a distance, he felt as if the flow of mystical living silver within his body was accelerating.

Xia Fa took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement, and carefully put it away, preparing to absorb it in the small world later. Perfect timing, he would also bring Benes and Meowkor in with him.

Of course, the Dream Come True sea train couldn't take the two of them on this trip; it would be too dangerous.

Since that's the case, it's better to let them stay in the small world, where they're absolutely safe.

Next, Xia Fa looked at the other treasures on the table, including sealed items, secret treasures, extraordinary fruits, and various high-level secret contracts... it had everything.

He doesn't really need these things now, but he can exchange them for some money to buy super-sized dried fish for Benedict and Meowkor.

"Hey, this is..."

Suddenly, Xia Fa's gaze shifted, and he saw something completely unexpected, causing his heart to skip a beat.

Beneath all those treasures lay... a treasure map!

A treasure map made of black animal hide, exactly the same as the three he had collected before!

At that moment, Xia Fa felt inexplicably uneasy.

That treasure map must be of great importance; that goes without saying.

He had thought it would take a long time to get the final treasure map, but to his surprise, Benedict and Meowkor brought it back to him from the giant egg world of the Endless Realm!

However, upon further reflection, this treasure map is indeed difficult to collect. If it weren't for Benedict and Meowkor, I'm afraid I would never have guessed that it would be in some small world of the Endless Realm, let alone found it.

Xia Fa immediately reached out and picked up the treasure map.

The moment his hand touched the treasure map, something completely unexpected happened!

Chapter 272 Absolute Defense VS Rhine Calamity! The True God vs. the Ancients!

The treasure map is made of black animal hide, with a rough, matte surface and a texture similar to cowhide; it is quite thick.

However, Xia Fa, who was holding the treasure map, was somewhat stunned.

Because the treasure chest on the treasure map is neither in the upper right corner, nor in the lower right corner, nor in the upper left corner or the lower left corner.

But... right in the middle!

Not only was it right in the center, but it was also several times larger than the treasure chests on the three treasure maps he had obtained before!

"So, there aren't actually four treasure maps, but five?"

"One from the central treasure chest, and one from each of the four corner treasure chests?"

At this moment, Xia Fa felt fortunate that Benes and Meowkor had brought him back from the Endless Realm this treasure map with a treasure chest pattern in the center.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be pleasant if you foolishly collected the four treasure maps, each containing a treasure chest in one of the four corners, only to find nothing had happened and you had no idea why you'd forget them in the corner where you left the bag.

He had also tried divination, but got no results at all, which indicated that these treasure maps were of extremely high status.

"Now we only need one more, but it's like searching for a needle in a haystack, we're completely clueless..."

Xia Fa sighed inwardly, but in any case, getting another treasure map was always a good thing, especially the most crucial one.

But just then, he felt a button-shaped pouch on his waist tremble.

Immediately afterwards, three more treasure maps flew out, surrounded by black light, and converged on the treasure map in his hand.

The next moment, these three small treasure maps... actually merged directly into this large treasure map!

In this way, the treasure map becomes a map with a large treasure chest in the center and a small treasure chest in three of the four corners.

The only thing missing is the treasure chest icon in the bottom left corner.

"This……"

Before Xia Fa could react, the treasure map in his hand began to vibrate violently, emitting an extremely powerful suction force.

It seems to be calling out to... that last treasure map in the unknown distance!

……

On the edge of the universe, in a small, unnamed star field.

On a tiny, completely unknown planet, a group of primitive people with six arms were dancing and gesturing around a campfire, overjoyed.

A huge wild boar was roasting over the campfire, its skin already charred and crispy, sizzling with oil.

Although these primitive humans have six arms, this wild boar is no ordinary creature either; it is about to transform into a fungus-level supernatural being.

Therefore, it took them a lot of effort to hunt this wild boar. They had been hungry for several days and were waiting for the wild boar to be thoroughly roasted.

They didn't seem to have developed language or possess much intelligence, so catching such large prey and having a good meal was already something to be very happy about.

At the same moment, just a few hundred meters away from this group of primitive people, on a sheltered hillside.

The enormous tunnel begins at the hillside entrance and extends deep into the earth, where two adventurers are tirelessly digging with hoes in hand.

They were clearly all extraordinary beings, and had all reached the level of demigods. The hoes in their hands were also secret treasures. Every swing of the hoe would unleash a powerful and silent destructive force, capable of digging tunnels thousands of meters long in an instant.

But inside the tunnel, in the soil that forms the rock walls, lie countless skeletons.
