With Secretary Liang’s guidance, Ye Bai found Chairman Wang.
Chairman Wang was reading some adult comics, and when he heard a knock on the door, he hurriedly put away the book and cleared his throat seriously.
"The door’s not locked, come in."
Secretary Liang pushed open the door and walked in with Ye Bai.
"Chairman Wang, I’ve brought Ye Bai over."
"I have other matters to attend to, so I’ll be busy for a while."
Chairman Wang looked at Ye Bai with satisfaction, his gaze intense enough to make Ye Bai shiver.
"Ye Bai, by volunteering as bait this time, you successfully thwarted the Resurrection Association’s plot. In light of this, after discussing with the higher-ups at Jiaying City’s Pet Beast Union, we are allowing you to choose a treasure from the union’s vault."
"What treasure you can select depends solely on your judgment."
Chairman Wang confidently said to Ye Bai.
"I have a meeting shortly, so let’s make this quick."
Chairman Wang personally led Ye Bai to the vault. After passing through five checkpoints, Ye Bai was greeted by an array of treasures.
The vault was about three hundred square meters.
The first thing that caught his eye were the rows of exquisite display cabinets filled with various treasures.
Some treasures were ancient, their surfaces covered with the traces of time, yet the craftsmanship of nature was still evident.
Some treasures were brightly colored, as dazzling as gems.
In the center of the vault, a large display case held something that seemed to be the treasure of the exhibition.
This treasure was a bronze-colored sword, engraved with intricate patterns and characters.
Seeing Ye Bai’s gaze fall on the Bronze Treasure Sword, Chairman Wang quickly spoke up: "This one is off-limits, it’s someone else’s treasure temporarily housed in our Pet Beast Union."
Ye Bai’s Eye of Insight activated on its own, and a haze appeared in Ye Bai’s vision.
Among them, a treasure emitted a gray mist comparable to a Tier Six treasure.
His gaze fell on this treasure, with a label that said Tier Five Sun Crystal Stone.
Oh my god, who was the idiot that mislabeled this, isn’t this a bargain for me?
And that pitch-black spherical object, isn’t that the Tier Five Celestial Thunder Seed?
If I can acquire that, use it against the Poisonous Flood Dragon, wouldn’t it be settled?
And that stone shaped like ginseng, is that a Ginseng Stone, containing the medicinal properties of ginseng, a rare treasure indeed.
Ye Bai felt his heart pounding fiercely.
At this moment, he felt like a mouse that had fallen into a rice jar, extremely excited.
"Ye Bai, I have to remind you, there are only five minutes left before the vault’s door closes."
"Once closed, it will take us two hours to open it again."
"So, I suggest you hurry." Content orıginally comes from 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝙣𝙚𝙩
Ye Bai hesitated for a while, but he still planned to take the Celestial Thunder Seed, the most effective weapon against the Poisonous Flood Dragon.
Just as he reached out to touch the Celestial Thunder Seed, his heart started beating like a drum, as if something was greatly attracting him.
He couldn’t help but walk to the back of the display case, where a thumb-sized stone appeared.
This jade looked just like an ordinary stone, with no discernible signs on the surface.
Even the Eye of Insight couldn’t see any gray mist on the jade.
But every cell in his body was clamoring.
Take it, you have to take it.
Ultimately, Ye Bai decided to follow his heart, giving up the Celestial Thunder Seed and taking away this stone.
When Ye Bai handed the jade to Chairman Wang, Chairman Wang frowned.
"That’s strange, I can’t find any record of this item."
"The Pet Beast Union’s inventory doesn’t have this item registered."
"I can’t help but see it as just an ordinary stone."
"How odd, it looks just like a stand-in stone."
"Never mind, this one doesn’t count, choose another item to take."
"You have one minute left, make it quick."
In the end, Ye Bai still chose the Celestial Thunder Seed, not picking the Tier Six Sun Crystal Stone.
He felt that as long as the Tier Six Sun Crystal Stone remained in the vault, he’d have the opportunity to take it eventually.
Moreover, the Sunflower Emperor had just evolved, there wasn’t an immediate need for the Tier Six Sun Crystal Stone.
At the last second, Chairman Wang led Ye Bai out of the vault.
Soon after, Chairman Wang was called away.
But Ye Bai’s heart beat faster and faster. He placed the stone into his Pet Beast Space.
When he returned to the Cultivation House, he took out the stone from the Pet Beast Space, and it cracked open with a snap.
A gray mist emerged, not inferior to the Tier Six Sun Crystal Stone.
A translucent jade appeared, its texture feeling very familiar to Ye Bai.
It was somewhat similar to the Ancient Jade he wore previously.
It’s the Seven-Orifice Exquisite Jade, but different from his own.
Seeing the jade, the Mandala Grass Emperor immediately blurted out: "Seven-Orifice Exquisite Jade!"
Ye Bai’s gaze fixed on the Mandala Grass Emperor.
Feeling Ye Bai’s intense gaze, the Mandala Grass Emperor was about to retort when it saw the Sunflower Emperor mimicking a throat-slitting gesture with a prayer motion, it immediately shrank back.
"This is the Seven-Orifice Exquisite Jade, there are seven pieces in total."
"It’s said that when the seven pieces come together, they form the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart."
"I learned about this from my inherited memory."
"Its greatest function is in awakening talents."
