Su Xiaobai's expression was solemn.
This was an existence that completely stood above Martial Gods.
Due to the restrictions of the interdimensional space-time rift, it could not pass through directly… Yet, even with the distance of the world's fissure between them, its gaze alone was enough to exert such immense pressure on Su Xiaobai. One could only imagine how terrifying the true power of a Martial King-level being was!
If a Martial King-level beast from the otherworld were to truly appear here, it wouldn't even need to make a move. Just a glance, just a mere aura, would be enough to claim Su Xiaobai's life!
The dark golden eyes met Su Xiaobai's gaze briefly, seemingly sending out a warning signal before vanishing without a trace… At that moment, the oppressive sensation that had been weighing down on Su Xiaobai's bloodline also disappeared entirely.
He let out a breath of relief.
"It seems that behind the otherworld, there truly are some hidden bosses… This SSS-class beast was probably sent here by it on purpose, right?"
"The dangers of the otherworld are truly extraordinary!"
This was Su Xiaobai's first time witnessing the otherworld so directly.
On the other side of the space-time rift, apart from the dark golden pupils, what he saw was a desolate landscape… The environment was generally similar to Earth.
However, the fact that it could produce so many powerful beasts, as well as beings like Martial Kings and Martial Emperors, was enough to prove that the otherworld contained many unimaginable sights beyond human comprehension!
"But this is exactly the kind of danger I'm looking for!"
"The greater the danger, the greater the treasures hidden within!"
A gleam flashed in Su Xiaobai's eyes.
Such a vast and resource-rich land surely contained unimaginable treasures… If he could set up one-click collection, one-click auto hunting, and one-click auto mining in the otherworld, the profits would be absolutely explosive!
The beast tide at Base No. 15 was completely dealt with.
The Dongfang Family also changed leadership following Dongfang You's death.
Dongfang Rou was the daughter of the family, ranked fourth. Based on inheritance rights, there were still three older brothers ahead of her, so logically, she shouldn't have had any right to take over the Dongfang Family… However, with Su Xiaobai's overwhelming strength backing her, the other three brothers didn't even dare to bring up the matter of succession!
Moreover, Su Xiaobai had originally planned to execute those who had joined Dongfang You in attempting to kill him. It was only after Dongfang Rou's repeated pleas that he chose to let it go.
In exchange, Su Xiaobai received his reward for assisting this time—the whereabouts of a Great Transcendent attribute cultivation technique!
"Mr. Su, that Great Transcendent cultivation technique is hidden within the ruins of Base No. 84!"
Dongfang Rou said seriously, "When Base No. 84 was overrun and destroyed by the beasts, not a single member of the Xia Family chose to flee—all of them fought to the death!"
"The Martial God who fell at the time was from the Xia Family!"
"Dongfang You once served as a guest elder in the Xia Family and learned that they had an 'Underground Arsenal' where they stored the cultivation techniques they had collected… He had even heard rumors about a Great Transcendent cultivation technique."
"When Base No. 84 fell and the Families relocated, many people later attempted to return and loot the area. However, due to the presence of powerful roaming beasts and the fact that very few knew about the Xia Family's Underground Arsenal, there is a high chance that it still exists to this day… Dongfang You originally wanted to go searching for it, but after making no progress in deciphering the 'Thousand Miles to the West,' he simply gave up on the idea!"
"If you are determined to obtain this Great Transcendent cultivation technique, you could make a trip to Base No. 84—perhaps you might find what you seek!"
An Underground Arsenal…
That means that aside from the Great Transcendent cultivation technique, there are likely many other cultivation techniques stored within as well!
Su Xiaobai's eyes gleamed.
This information is truly valuable.
But for the average person, it's an unbearable burden.
After all, a Martial God had perished at Base No. 84 back then, and even the other Martial Gods had deemed the situation unwinnable and chose to flee with their Families… This made it clear just how terrifying the beasts in that place must be!
At the very least, they had to be at the Martial God level!
Even if someone wanted to take the risk and return to loot, they might not even know about the existence of the Xia Family's Underground Arsenal.
And while Dongfang You had this knowledge, he was too cowardly and lacked the ability to comprehend the Great Transcendent technique, so he abandoned the idea…
This meant that a treasure trove was still buried beneath the ruins of Base No. 84, just waiting for a strong enough individual to claim it!
"Base No. 84… I don't need to go personally. I'll send my Shadow to check it out first!"
A place that dangerous—Su Xiaobai wouldn't recklessly risk himself. With the existence of the Shadow, which was unafraid of death and could serve as cannon fodder, it was only natural to let it assess the current danger level first.
"System, dispatch the Shadow to these coordinates!"
Su Xiaobai immediately read out the coordinates for Base No. 84.
"Dispatch successful!"
Just moments after the system's notification sounded…
"Shadow has been killed. Entering cooldown period!"
It died that quickly?!
Su Xiaobai's brow furrowed.
Base No. 84 was indeed guarded by some terrifyingly powerful beast!
His Shadow, which could easily crush Ultimate Martial Commanders, had been instantly killed upon arrival… This meant that at the very least, there were Martial Commander-level threats, if not Martial Gods or even stronger beings!
"Our current strength isn't enough. I'll wait until I've grown stronger before trying again!"
The utility of the Shadow was becoming more evident.
If it was instantly killed, it meant the gap in power was too vast—Su Xiaobai going himself would be suicide.
If it managed to resist for a short while, that meant the enemy's strength was comparable—he could go without worry.
And if the Shadow not only survived but also managed to kill enemies, then it would be safe to explore and unlock the Underground Arsenal freely!
Dongfang Rou certainly knew how to handle matters.
Aside from the information about the Great Transcendent technique, she also represented the Dongfang Family in giving Su Xiaobai an additional 100 billion as compensation… a token of appreciation for sparing the lives of the Family's members.
"The heavens cherish life; if I can avoid killing, I will… It's only natural!" Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs novęlfire.net
Su Xiaobai spoke righteously, but his actions were honest—he accepted the 100 billion without hesitation.
"If the Dongfang Family can casually take out 100 billion… then as the head of the Family, Dongfang You's spatial ring should contain at least as much, if not more!"
Su Xiaobai took out Dongfang You's spatial ring.
With just a casual glance, his eyes immediately lit up like light bulbs!
"Treasures! Treasures! All of them are treasures!"
"This Dongfang You must have been quite the hoarder… But I have to say—hah! Well done!"
Dongfang You wasn't just rich—he was absurdly rich!
The mountain of rare treasures alone was enough to make Su Xiaobai drool… Not to mention the massive accumulation of precious materials, spiritual weapons, cultivation techniques, pills, and more…
Just one glance at it all made Su Xiaobai feel utterly refreshed!
After all, Dongfang You had been an Ultimate Martial Commander, ruling over a major base for years… This was the culmination of his life's wealth. How could it be anything less than staggering?
But now, all of these spoils had changed ownership.
Everything now belonged to Su Xiaobai!
"Dongfang You's total spirit coins… 178.7 billion!"
"Adding the 100 billion from Dongfang Rou, that makes a total of 278.7 billion!"
