第三千零五十五章 先天魔宝

Originally, this outing was just a whim. He had merely been curious and approached it with the mindset of playing around. However, his discovery now made him feel extremely serious.

It was as if he was happy and delighted, but there was also a hint of anticipation in his expression, as if he were lost in thought.

After searching high and low, one finally comes across what they seek without much effort.

While the power of a Golden Transformation Realm cultivator is certainly enviable, reaching this level requires immense difficulty. For him to seek breakthroughs at such an advanced stage would be incredibly challenging.

Every few hundred years, he would leave the main sect headquarters and travel far and wide, seemingly for leisure. However, his purpose was not merely for fun; there were specific goals in mind.

And it wasn't mysterious or extraordinary—simply seeking opportunities.

In Old Stoker's view, while his talent was commendable, he had likely reached the peak of his potential at the early stage of Golden Transformation. To seek breakthroughs would require extraordinary luck and not just diligent practice within the sect.

However, luck is elusive; it can't be easily grasped or seen. It took a lot to come across such an opportunity.

But as a cultivator who had reached this realm, his mind was naturally resilient. Old Stoker wouldn’t be any different.

Failure was no reason for despair; persistence would eventually lead him to success.

Though the idea seemed far-fetched, the logic held true. Now, it appeared that Old Stoker's luck had finally turned in his favor.

He needed to figure out what lay within this dull cocoon and what secrets this mysterious small space held.

With these thoughts swirling in his mind, he gazed at the dull cocoon, lost in thought.

His heart was filled with anticipation, but acting rashly would be foolish. Golden Transformation Realm experts were cunning; they always remained calm when faced with situations.

But just as he pondered, the symbols on the cocoon's surface lit up again.

Simultaneously, a clear ringing sound echoed, and brilliant spiritual light shone out from the cocoon’s surface.

The different-colored spiritual lights flowed continuously, making it look more beautiful than a rainbow. It was dazzlingly splendid.

"What is this?"

Old Stoker widened his eyes in shock as he couldn't suppress a look of astonishment.

But that expression quickly changed to one of joy—no, ecstatic joy.

It was treasure aura!

Yes, this was undoubtedly the legendary treasure aura.

Treasure aura was known by few cultivators across the three realms. It could only be found in ancient texts.

Legends said that先天灵宝would emit a treasure aura upon awakening.

Apart from such items, very few things could produce a treasure aura.

In other words, once an item emitted a treasure aura, its value would be immense.

Old Stoker had read about this. Even with his vast experience, his heart raced at the sight.

It was no wonder; for cultivators, treasures and magic artifacts were the most valuable possessions. As a Golden Transformation Realm expert, he rarely encountered such items. Without seeing them, how could he hope to possess one?

For an early-stage cultivator like him, the thought of a先天灵宝was a dream come true. To be so fortunate was beyond his wildest dreams.

His hands trembled slightly as he realized just how lucky he might be.

Though he didn't know how to remove that strange seal, attacking seemed the right move.

Old Stoker's eyes flashed with determination as he flicked his sleeves. A black aura surged out from his sleeve and transformed into a massive black serpent, lunging at the cocoon.

Zzzzt…

Before it could reach within three feet of the cocoon, numerous mysterious symbols lit up.

They formed golden lightning that struck the serpent, causing it to disintegrate instantly.

"Such a terrifying secret technique. It seems to have an effect against my dark magic."

The hair-covered cultivator frowned deeply. His previous attack was merely a test, but his opponent's counterattack was far more intense than expected.

His dark magic seemed to face its nemesis.

"Could this be..."

He was shocked but also delighted.

Perhaps the item sealed within the cocoon wasn't a先天灵宝but a先天魔宝?

Yes, that must be it. This could explain why such an important item would be sealed here.

Knowing that ordinary cultivators couldn’t control a先天魔宝, using one would have its drawbacks—its true dark magic aura would erode their cultivation, potentially leading to severe damage or even death.

But as a Golden Transformation Realm expert, this was his dream. The true dark magic aura from the treasure would not harm him; instead, it would enhance his cultivation.

His luck was truly extraordinary.

At this point, Old Stoker had no hesitation. Even if he thought no one else would come, better safe than sorry…

He moved swiftly, black winds swirling as several magical artifacts flew out of his sleeves and attacked the dull cocoon.

Meanwhile, Lin Xuan wasn't idle either. He gazed at the massive palace before him, pondering what to do. But just then, a creaking sound echoed, signaling that the palace door had opened.

Lin Xuan's face lit up with joy as he heard a "whoosh" and saw golden light emanating from his surroundings.

"Bad luck!"

Most cultivators might have hesitated, but Lin Xuan’s extensive experience allowed him to react instantly. Without thinking, he stepped left.

Nine Heavens Microstep!

With spatial abilities now at play, Lin Xuan vanished from the spot.
