Chapter 1178: b.l.o.o.d.y Soul Sutra

Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem

The treasure bank contained all the wealth that Zhang Tie plundered from the 18 Three-eye a.s.sociation clans in Waii Subcontinent, which were robbed by the latter from the northern countries in Waii Subcontinent.

Zhang Tie didn't feel like counting the value of the gold and silver in the treasure bank. He had been numb about them. The largest region of the treasure bank was used to store these gold. There were over 300,000 tons of silver, all of which were put in the underground warehouse as they were less valuable than gold.

As for the other 3 regions in the treasure bank, the second region was used to store other precious metals, gems and top-quality crystals. Mithril, abyss magical iron, mountain copper, violet gold, ruby, sapphire, cat's eye and diamonds were packed in crates in terms of categories. These treasures covered over 30,000 square meters. In order to store these items, Edward even made high metal racks. Like books in the library, these crates were put on the high metal racks. If a person couldn't fly, he had to use a professional mobile bridge ladder.

The third region of the treasure bank was used to store cultural relics, rare curios, jewelry and artworks of each human age. Many things were strange to Zhang Tie. However, now that those Three-eye a.s.sociation clans collected these things seriously, he robbed away all of them, including some boring sculptures, oil paints and antiques.

The 4th region of the treasure bank contained what Zhang Tie could use now. They were of the highest value, including more than 10 silver secret items, over 10 secret pearls that had not been opened, some vials of rare medicaments on special medicament racks, some weapons and armors on the armracks and batches of element crystals that were placed in categories.

The footsteps of Zhang Tie and h.e.l.ler were reverberating around the entire treasure bank. The resources in the treasure bank were as rich as a country; especially those silver secret items and s.p.a.ce-teleportation items; even top clans in Taixia Country could not have such luxurious furnis.h.i.+ngs.

In the beginning, after coming here, Zhang Tie would not feel like leaving anymore. Several times later, he would still feel thrilled. Gradually, Zhang Tie had been used to it. Now, Zhang Tie had been numb about this s.h.i.+ny treasure bank.

When he pa.s.sed by the 3rd region, he didn't even throw a glance at those priceless items over there. After pa.s.sing by the 3rd region, Zhang Tie glanced at a golden mountain in front of him for a short while.

The golden mountain was genuinely a mountain of gold coins.

This golden mountain was in the center of the treasure bank. The entire golden mountain was composed of gold coins with various patterns. From a distance, it was like a pyramid made of gold coins. The golden mountain was 40 m in height. After being spread over the ground, they could cover a circular area whose diameter was almost 100 m. There was a huge pit as deep as dozens of meters beneath the golden mountain, which was also filled with gold coins. Under the lamplights, numerous gold coins were sparkling and dazzling.

It was very vulgar to put a pile of gold coins in the treasure bank. However, Zhang Tie stuck to it. Because this was one of his biggest life dreams when he was young. Zhang Tie had tried to sleep and roll on the golden mountain. After gradually losing his interest in it, Zhang Tie discovered that it was actually not comfortable to lie on gold coins; at least it was not as comfortable as lying and rolling on sand and bed. If he rolled too excessively on it, he might be buried by the gold coins that slid off the top of the golden mountain like an avalanche. Although it was not fatal, it was not funny.

When he didn't have such wealth, Zhang Tie thought that he would be very happy with them; however, after owning them, Zhang Tie found that what could make him really happy were not these gold coins but the rice brew that was made by his mom when he was young.

The brilliance and prosperity would finally return to plain and pureness. When one really understood what were the most precious things in his life, he had reached a higher life realm.

‘Beloved ones are most precious for people; those who love a person the most is his or her parents.'

At the sight of that golden mountain that he was always dreaming about when he was young, a whim flashed through Zhang Tie's mind, ‘After a few more days, I will be able to return home in front of the public.'

The moment Zhang Tie entered the 4th region, he had noticed the change. There were 3 most evident changes. First, there were 4 more secret weapons here. Second, there were batches of element crystals. Third, there were 3 more s.p.a.ce-teleportation items on the rack.

Zhang Tie and h.e.l.ler walked towards the rack of s.p.a.ce-teleportation items.

It was great for any knight to have a s.p.a.ce-teleportation item. However, there was one row of s.p.a.ce-teleportation items here which looked like jewelry being waited to be selected and waiters to be called by Zhang Tie.

Over 10 s.p.a.ce-teleportation items were placed in a row on a table which was covered with green goose down. They were what Zhang Tie had achieved over these years. Some of them were plundered; some were from secret pearls. After a casual glance at them, Zhang Tie had discovered 3 new items. He only had an impression of the tan token that was left after Han Zhengfang disappeared in the magma sea.

However, h.e.l.ler introduced the other two to him first.

“This finger ring and waistband are two portable s.p.a.ce-teleportation items from Han Yuanhong. As the host of Gold and Power Market, Han Yuanhong put a lot of good things in the two s.p.a.ce-teleportation items. They contain many anonymous gold checks and doc.u.ments of drawing rights of 12.8 billion gold coins in total, 43,654 earth-element crystals, 21,250 water-element crystals, 8,500 wind-element crystals and 4,000 fire-element crystal, over 1,200 vials of medicaments of different categories, some bronze secret-level armors and helmets, two quality high-level elements gathering towers and some food and drinks…”

‘I made a fortune! F*ck!'

The figures reported by h.e.l.ler shocked Zhang Tie a bit. Although he knew that Han Yuanhong would carry some special items when he escaped, Zhang Tie had not imagined that he could carry so many valuables with him.

‘12.8 billion gold coins. What does that mean? The entire Guan Clan could hardly gather 700 million gold coins in a short period, 12.8 billion gold coins could be used to build over 100 cities or a prosperous prefecture in Taixia Country. Did Han Zhengfang prepare to use such a great amount of gold coins to recover b.l.o.o.d.y Soul Temple or establish a country somewhere one day?'

Zhang Tie turned around and looked at the piles of elements crystals. Zhang Tie didn't know whether other clans could have so many elements crystals, he knew that Huaiyuan Palace didn't have so many elements crystals. It was Zhang Tie's first time to see a knight carrying so many elements crystals with him.

Zhang Tie took up that finger ring left by Han Yuanhong casually. It was actually a private seal of Han Yuanhong as Han Yuanhong's name was sealed on it. After injecting his spiritual energy into it, Zhang Tie found that the area of finger ring was approximately 300 cubic meters, which indicated that it was a top s.p.a.ce-teleportation item.

The belt buckle was a dragon head as large as a half palm. Given the two eyes of the dragon head, Zhang Tie knew that it was special. Because the two eyes were made of top-cla.s.s alchemist's gems. There were 7 flowers on the gems. Such gems were definitely carved by an alchemist master. What was more, this pair of alchemist's gems were rare sun gems.

Zhang Tie checked the function of this pair of alchemist's gems. Closely after that, his face turned strange. ‘F*ck, this pair of alchemist's sun gems could activate the surging points on man's kidney and perineum. To put it simply, they could tonify one's Yang.

“F*ck, the two sons of Han Zhengfang are nothing different.”

Zhang Tie felt a bit disgusted; however, he also knew that this item was not good or bad. In the eyes of those who needed them, this item was priceless, especially that pair of sun gems.

The s.p.a.ce inside the belt buckle contained over 1,000 square meters, which indicated that it was also a top s.p.a.ce-teleportation item.

After putting down the belt buckle, Zhang Tie took up that token of Han Zhengfang.

This token was almost as long as his palm. Although it looked like being made of copper, it wasn't. Because the token was heavier than mithril. Besides, there were complex and mysterious grains on the token. Zhang Tie could recognize a sealed word “Decree” in the middle of these grains. The moment Zhang Tie held the token, he had felt being sober while the spiritual energy in his mind sea became tranquil at once. He felt pretty comfortable. ‘This token could lubricate one's spiritual energy. How marvelous it is!'

Zhang Tie looked at it for a short while before asking, “What's inside?”

“I've not taken the items out of it yet. Castle Lord could review it yourself…”

After hearing h.e.l.ler's words, Zhang Tie immediately injected his spiritual energy into the s.p.a.ce of the token…

The token had a large s.p.a.ce. It was the s.p.a.ce-teleportation item with the largest s.p.a.ce that Zhang Tie had ever seen besides Castle of Black Iron. It was even two times larger than that of Xuanwu Secret Warehouse of b.l.o.o.d.y Soul Temple.

A 3-storey pavilion made of violet gold was floating inside the s.p.a.ce.

On the pitch-dark metal tablet of the pavilion, there were some b.l.o.o.d.y words——b.l.o.o.d.y Soul Sutra Enlightenment Pavilion.

At the sight of these words, Zhang Tie's heart almost stopped beating in a split second.

However, closely after that, Zhang Tie recovered his composure as he injected his spiritual energy into the sutra enlightenment pavilion.

It was hollow in the 3-storey pavilion. As there was no sundry and redundant decoration inside it besides an eye-catching black round high platform in the middle, a high caisson-shaped dome came into being. Beneath that black high platform, there were 9 steps being embedded with top-cla.s.s fire-element crystals. There was only one item lying on the high black platform quietly which looked very solemn and eye-catching. As if the entire pavilion was built for that item on the platform.

The moment Zhang Tie injected his spiritual energy into this pavilion, he had been attracted by that item on the high platform in the middle.

Closely after that, Zhang Tie had taken that item out of there. Lying on Zhang Tie's hand, it gave out a mysterious brilliance…

That item was strange as if it was composed of two circles. The item was composed of 4 snakes that devoured each other's tail. Each of the two snakes formed a circle. Zhang Tie found that the 4 snakes were movable and could be dismantled. As long as they were put in the original places, they would bite each other's tail tightly too.

After observing this item for quite a while, Zhang Tie injected his spiritual energy into it; however, he got no response from it.

In Zhang Tie's impression, all the senior items would make a response to him as long as he injected his spiritual energy into them.

‘How could b.l.o.o.d.y Soul Temple and Han Zhengfang put such a worthless item in the b.l.o.o.d.y Soul Sutra Enlightenment Pavilion in such a solemn way?'

Zhang Tie observed this item carefully and found that the 4 snakes being connected with each other formed a pattern with a marvelous meaning. In the Western Continent, it represented the never-ending samsara between life and death both physically and spiritually. The pattern of two snakes biting each other was still preserved in some hospitals in the Western Continent; in Eastern Continent, the pattern of snakes biting each other could actually be seen everywhere too. However, it changed a bit. Hua people had replaced snakes with fish or dragon and tiger. The more abstract symbol of this pattern was the taichi diagram of Hua people.

Zhang Tie gradually felt that this item was like a headband. Therefore, he directly put it on his head.

Soon after that, the spiritual energy in Zhang Tie's mind sea shocked as the spiritual energy of this item had been connected with that of Zhang Tie, manifesting three unimaginable huge words in Zhang Tie's mind sea——b.l.o.o.d.y Soul Sutra!
