Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

The entrance to the secret treasury is located in the cellar of the house behind Da Luo.

Wen Yu had already used Soul Perception to find the location of the secret treasury, and he also saw the barriers around it.

But knowing Bai had prepared so thoroughly, a mere barrier shouldn’t trouble him.

Sure enough, Bai, who was pulled over to Wen Yu’s side by the Netherworld, just rubbed his hands together and walked towards the house with anticipation on his face.

...

The barrier was complex, and the energy intensity was quite high—at least if Wen Yu were to act, he could only go the route of brute force, which would take an immeasurable amount of time.

But Bai indeed came prepared.

They saw Bai standing at the entrance of the secret treasury, his hands open, as countless runes emerged from his body and penetrated the door of the secret treasury. In less than 10 seconds, the door gently trembled, then opened up to Wen Yu’s gaze, welcoming the two inside.

”The Immortal Emperor established seven secret treasuries in all, this is one of them, and the only one I know of. If I hadn’t transformed my body, there was no way I could stand up to Da Luo. No way this place could ever be yours otherwise...”

Bai was muttering grievances on the side, and Wen Yu merely chuckled, saying nothing—valuables go to the strong, what’s the use of knowing before if you can’t even handle the gatekeeper boss?

After a while, Bai finished his grumbling and quickly adjusted his mindset, smiling at Wen Yu with a shrewd smile: ”We agreed on a 28 percent split, don’t cheat me.”

”Tsk...”

Wen Yu scoffed and shook his head: ”How about 37?”

”Alright!”

Bai’s eyes gleamed.

With a clap, Wen Yu slapped Bai on the shoulder, making Bai stagger.

”You wish, hurry up.”

Hearing Wen Yu’s urging, Bai immediately became serious, making a courteous gesture as he bowed to invite Wen Yu: ”Now, let us receive a portion of the Immortal Emperor’s inheritance... um, a part of it...”

...

Bai stepped into the secret treasury first, Wen Yu following closely behind. As soon as he stepped through the door, Wen Yu frowned immediately.

”This place...”

Observing the wooden racks and boxes on them all around, Wen Yu looked at the dark walls around and couldn’t help but ask: ”Can this place really isolate mental perception and mental connection?”

”Not just that! You know, the Immortal Emperor was the undisputed number one in the Universe of Immortals and Heroes. In terms of strength, he was tens of thousands of times stronger than me and the Heavenly Dao. This was built by the Immortal Emperor’s own hands, considered the last foundation of a world. The materials of these walls are special, and there are runes protecting them. They don’t just isolate mental perception and connection; they also block all kinds of communication devices and methods. So, no worries about security. What’s wrong?”

Seeing Wen Yu’s expression, Bai knowingly asked.

Wen Yu simply shook his head, showing no suspicion: ”It’s just the first time I’ve seen something like this. Um, my mental connection with my soul pet has been severed, something even a treasure land couldn’t do, yet the Immortal Emperor did it. I’m impressed...”

Wen Yu marveled, and Bai followed up, ”You are still young and don’t know many things. The professionist system gave professionists great power, but this power isn’t just superficial; it also has profound depth. As long as you dig, you can always find strange and wonderful things. Our original Cultivation System in the Universe of Immortals and Heroes was very good, with great achievements in attack, defense, livelihood, and technology. But what happened? As soon as the professionist system appeared, it wiped out the existing cultivation system to ashes.”

”That’s the difference in levels, there’s nothing we can do. The only thing that can advance to the ultimate Level 12 is the professionist system!”

”Level 12?”

Wen Yu raised his eyebrow and asked, clearly curious about this level.

Bai was straightforward, leading Wen Yu deeper into the secret treasury while explaining: ”The Dominator is Level 12, the Demon Lord is also Level 12, the two great pillars under the professionist system, others can’t reach it. The Immortal Emperor also sought to uncover the secrets of Level 12, but to no avail. Oh, by the way, the world will of each world is also Level 12, but there’s a huge difference there.”

”Take Earth, for example. Earth’s will is indeed Level 12, but due to its mass, its total energy reaches Level 12’s intensity, but it’s too bloated to exert Level 12 power. Some world wills can’t even gather self-thinking abilities... The Dominator and the Demon Lord don’t have such concerns. So, you should know who is stronger, right?”

Hearing Bai’s explanation, Wen Yu nodded. Bai’s explanation was indeed easy to understand—bloat means clumsiness, dispersed power means low energy efficiency, just like the battle between Da Luo and Wen Yu just now. The energy levels were the same, but the actual power displayed was worlds apart.

”Strictly speaking, Level 12 is just a term, not a strict classification. What is called Level 12 is just used to describe that level which human power can’t reach. Apart from the Dominator and Demon Lord, any other life form, and I mean any, is capped at Level 11. So I’ve said this much, just take it as is.”

”Alright, let’s not talk about this.”

Bai waved his big hand, cutting off the topic, then turned to Wen Yu, pointing at the dazzling array of wooden shelves around, a smile of impending harvest on his lips.

”Nearly 20 Esoteric Level items or skill scrolls, each with different functions, and countless lower-level items. They are all good things with special effects. Now, why don’t I give you a detailed introduction to the treasures in here?”

”That would be appropriate!”

Wen Yu responded with a smile.

The harvest time after defeating a strong enemy... there’s nothing more wonderful than this!

...

Time winds back a few minutes.

After the Demigod buried Fang Bai underground, Bai’s message was sent to the Demigod’s communicator.

”One minute...”

Looking at the time on his communicator, the Demigod knew the final phase of the first plan had arrived. He immediately put away the communicator and slowly ascended into the sky.

Rising into the air, the Demigod’s figure paused, frowning as if in thought. After a while, he returned to the spot where Fang Bai was buried, using the Power of Heaven and Earth to open two tiny air holes for Fang Bai.

”Don’t die... and thank you for taking care of Lin Que.”

The Demigod murmured softly, not caring whether Fang Bai could hear, and then ascended again, his target being the Eternal Sky City directly above Yanjing!

...

”Buzz~~~Buzz~~~”

The communicator in his hand buzzed, as Ye Nan stood within the grand courtyard belonging to the Demigod, looking at the message from the communicator.

”Blast through the central control tower in 30 seconds!”

Putting away the communicator, Ye Nan stroked the Boundary Cracking Device beside him with his right hand, looking at the towering central control tower ahead, and couldn’t help but smile coldly.

”It’s finally starting...”
