Eternal Life by Daily Divination

”Could it be that the treasures in this palace are nothing more than an illusion?”

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with confusion.

The aura of the treasures felt real, so why couldn’t anyone retrieve them?

Was it some kind of Array protecting this hall, or another strange power?

”Forget it. I’ll go try myself!”

Wu Shuo took a deep breath, having made his decision.

Since so many servants and Spirit Beasts had returned alive, he probably wouldn’t be in any real danger either.

He handed his Storage Pouch to Li Chang’an and said with gravity, ”Daoist Li, if something happens to me, I’ll have to trouble you to pass this Storage Pouch on to my descendants.”

”Alright!”

Li Chang’an didn’t say much more and accepted the Storage Pouch.

After a brief period of observation, he had already seen through the mystery of the hall.

There was no Array inside the hall.

The reason no one could obtain the treasures was due to a Tier Four Divination technique—Confusing Profound Mechanism!

This technique was particularly bizarre.

In an area enveloped by this kind of Divination power, everything was chaotic.

Some treasures appeared real but were actually fake. They seemed close at hand but could be a thousand miles away. You might seem to be moving forward when you were actually retreating...

True and false were indistinguishable, everything was jumbled and inverted, and nothing was clear.

Forget about Golden Core Masters.

Even a Nascent Soul True Monarch would fall for it if they entered.

Although Li Chang’an’s Divination Skill hadn’t reached Tier Four, it wasn’t far off. It could be considered Quasi-Tier Four, and he was already familiar with the various strange techniques of Tier Four Divination.

He knew very well that entering wouldn’t be fatal; at worst, one would just be confused for a while.

”Don’t worry, Daoist Wu. I can see your fortune is flourishing; you won’t perish here.”

”That may be so, but accidents can happen.”

Wu Shuo calmed his mind and slowly stepped inside.

As the first Golden Core Master to enter the hall, he instantly captured everyone’s attention.

Even the members of the Yellow Sand Sect, who were not far away, turned their gazes toward him.

”Daoist Wu’s strength is considerable. Perhaps he has a chance to get a treasure.”

”Everyone, don’t be hasty. Let’s wait for Daoist Wu to come out first.”

No one made any more probing attempts; they all stood outside the hall, waiting quietly.

About a quarter of an hour later.

Wu Shuo’s figure reappeared outside the hall.

His head was lowered, staring at his hands, but they were completely empty.

”Just as I thought! I clearly obtained a treasure, but as soon as I walked out of the hall, it vanished.”

”Daoist Wu, did you really get a treasure? You weren’t deceived by an Illusion?”

Everyone crowded forward, asking about Wu Shuo’s experience.

Wu Shuo didn’t hide anything and recounted what he had seen and heard in detail.

After entering the hall,

he saw dozens of treasures shrouded in hazy, precious light, many of which exuded a Tier Four aura.

He originally planned to take all the treasures, but they seemed to possess Spiritual Energy, actively avoiding him.

He managed to grab one only after great difficulty.

”It was a piece of Tier Four Artifact Refining Material. I clearly sealed it with my Magical Power...”

Looking at his empty hands, Wu Shuo sighed.

Zi Yun asked, ”Daoist Wu, did you try to put the treasure into your Storage Pouch?”

”Of course, I tried, but it wouldn’t go in.”

After a round of questioning,

everyone no longer hesitated and entered the hall one after another.

But their experiences were all similar to Wu Shuo’s; none of them managed to bring out a single treasure.

Not far away, the same thing was happening with the Yellow Sand Sect.

”Sigh, there’s clearly a Nascent Soul opportunity in there, but all we can do is watch.”

What everyone wanted most, of course, was the Ice Spirit Jade.

But not one of them succeeded.

Eventually,

even Zi Xi, Gu Yunqi, and Wei Xu went inside to try.

All three were Celestial Prides. The quality of their Core Formation was, at worst, a Half-step Immortal Golden Core, and their techniques and strength far surpassed those of ordinary Golden Core Masters.

Their target was also the Ice Spirit Jade.

However, it wasn’t long before all three failed.

They came away with nothing!

”This place is truly strange.”

Zi Xi stood outside the hall, her expression calm and thoughtful.

A moment later.

A Spiritual Light flashed in her hand, and a Tier Four Talisman appeared.

The Talisman burst with golden light as its golden patterns slowly burned. It floated above her head, releasing the pressure of Tier Four.

Carrying the Talisman, she entered the hall once more.

Gu Yunqi and Wei Xu also used their own methods and re-entered the hall, attempting to retrieve the Ice Spirit Jade.

”Will they succeed this time?”

Everyone waited outside, filled with doubt.

About a quarter of an hour later.

The three of them appeared one after another, still without any treasure.

Everyone couldn’t help but feel disappointed. If even figures like the Saintess and Saint Child couldn’t obtain the opportunity, then they likely had no hope either.

Zi Xi said, ”This place won’t harm anyone. Everyone, feel free to try your own methods.”

With that said, she shot into the sky. Her purple skirt fluttered as she looked down upon the entire palace from above, seeming to want to discern its secrets.

Gu Yunqi and Wei Xu also stopped trying and, like Zi Xi, began to search for a way to break the puzzle.

The others went their separate ways. Some went Treasure Hunting elsewhere, while others continued to try their luck.

A moment later.

Li Chang’an made his move.

He walked to the entrance, slowly stepped into the hall, and disappeared from everyone’s sight.

”Daoist Li will most likely return empty-handed as well.”

”This place is truly bizarre. Daoist Li’s Alchemy Dao and Artifact Refining Skill are useless here.”

No one was optimistic about Li Chang’an’s chances.

If even Zi Xi failed, what could he possibly do?

Little did they know,

Li Chang’an had already seen through part of the mystery of this place.

After he entered, what appeared before him was a vast hall thousands of feet high.

Dozens of treasures, shrouded in hazy, precious light, flew about within the hall.

”The Ice Spirit Jade!”

Li Chang’an’s eyes narrowed, and he quickly locked onto that Nascent Soul opportunity.

However, he did not act immediately.
