Under the stars, two human figures silently entered the surface world.

“Senior Li, isn’t it a little inappropriate for us to sneak into the Xuan Yuan clan’s territory like this? If we’re discovered, the two of us will definitely die without a burial ground.”

“What do you know! The Xuan Yuan clan has even activated a large array! This clan’s territory definitely has a rare treasure that can only be seen once in 10,000 years.

“The two of us are working our *sses off digging graves in the starry sky. How long will it take for us to dig?

“The benefits will belong to those leaders, and the dirty work will belong to us.

“After you finish this, you won’t have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life. I’ll let you marry ten Winged God clan girls!”

Gulp…

The other party could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. The last hesitation in his eyes was completely put down.

“Senior Li, I still have one more question. It’s easy for us to enter this array. I’m afraid it won’t be that easy for us to get out, right?”

“Hehehe… You don’t understand this, do you, silly boy?

“Didn’t we dig up a Godslayer’s tomb previously? There are a few divine talismans that can directly pass through arrays. I saw the description on them. They were forged by a Goldy King realm prodigy, so I secretly hid three of them on myself.

“As long as the two of us find that treasure, we can easily leave this place.”

“Senior Li is wise.”

“Now, let’s go down and ask someone to see if there are any clues.”

“This… That is an unfathomable treasure. It seems unlikely that anyone can find out about it, right?”

“How do we know if we don’t try?”

The two quickly landed on the ground and scanned the street. Soon, they identified a figure.

“Senior Li, do you see that? That person is dressed in rags and salutes with a stick. He is holding an iron vat in his hand. Whoever walks in front of him will give him some money. He is definitely a martial arts expert.”

Senior Li nodded.

“You’re right. Senior martial arts experts are usually so plain and unadorned. They never care about their clothes and appearance.

“However, they often hide their abilities and have extraordinary strength. Let’s go up and ask him.”

The two followed each other all the way to a small alley.

The smell in the alley was extremely bad. The two used spiritual energy to seal their noses and followed them in

The ragged man was lying in a pile of garbage, counting his harvest for the day.

“Not bad today. In just over an hour, I managed to get more than 200 yuan and even a spirit stone. One spirit stone can be exchanged for several hundred yuan. Stain, if this goes on, I can buy another house for my son at the end of the year.”

Just as he finished speaking, two figures that he had never seen before suddenly appeared in front of him. They were looking at him with smiles on their faces.

He carefully put the money and spirit stones into his pocket and said,

“What do you want?”

The two of them smiled faintly.

“Friend, don’t panic. We just want to inquire about some things.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them took out a small handful of spirit stones from their pockets.

Seeing this spirit stone, the old beggar’s eyes instantly lit up, and he hurriedly stretched out his hand to take the spirit stone.

“You two gentlemen really have good taste. Let me tell you, there isn’t anything big or small in Jianghai city that I don’t know about.

“You know about Young Master Ning, right? The eldest young master of the Ning family, the direct descendant of the Xuan Yuan clan, Ning Zhiyuan!

“He came to Jianghai city and found a few concubines. I can tell you everything, including his home address and height.”

“We don’t want to know that. We just want to know, last night, did a once-in-a-lifetime treasure appear in Nine Provinces?”

The old beggar slapped his thigh.

“Well, if you’re asking me about this, then you’re really asking the right person.

“A great treasure has appeared in our Nine Provinces. Have you heard of the Treasured Artifact?”

“What did you say? A Treasured Artifact?”

The pupils of the two instantly constricted, and the hair on their bodies stood on end.

It was actually a Treasured Artifact!

No wonder it attracted the worship of tens of thousands of weapons.

It was even to the extent that the Xuan Yuan clan had to activate the Great Wall Array to prevent others from entering.

They were probably afraid that others would discover that Treasured Artifact.

The value of a Treasured Artifact was without a doubt.

“Then… Has the Xuan Yuan clan obtained that Treasured Artifact?”

“According to my many years of judgment, they definitely haven’t found it. If they had, they definitely wouldn’t have guarded so tightly and wouldn’t have dared to leak the news.”

The two brothers looked at each other and became even more excited

The Treasured Artifact had yet to be found. To them, that was a great piece of good news.

That meant that they had not come to the Xuan Yuan clan’s territory for nothing.

If the two of them could find that Treasured Artifact first, then they would be rich.

“Hey, Sirs, this matter is absolutely confidential. Other than the old beggar, you can’t find anyone else who knows about this matter, so you mustn’t spread it.

“Otherwise, if the Ning family finds out, they will kill you.”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

“You’ve reminded us that this matter can not be known by others. Even if someone knows, the fewer people who know, the better.”

The old beggar did not understand what the two of them meant. In the next second, he felt a pain in his neck, and his consciousness sank into darkness.

The two of them left the alley with a sinister smile.

“Senior, this matter might be within the Xuan Yuan clan. It hasn’t been spread in time yet. The two of us must seize the opportunity to find that Treasured Artifact before the news spreads out.”

“That’s right. An unfathomable treasure like the Treasured Artifact already possesses extremely high intelligence. It must be hidden somewhere in the Nine Provinces. Let’s first find it in Jianghai city and see if there are any gains.”

On Ye Xiao’s side, after reading for an entire day, he felt extremely speechless.

He also did not know what method the Xuan Yuan clan used to block the news. Why did he feel that everyone knew?

Their capabilities of keeping secrets are a little too poor, right?

Ye Xiao estimated that other than the Ning family, who thought that no one else knew about the accident, everyone else already knew.

What made him even more speechless was that Emperor Jing even secretly contacted him, telling him that he had to think of a way to obtain that Treasured Artifact.

Do you know what he said? He said that it appeared in the Nine Provinces, so it was destined to belong to him.

Did it not belong to Ye Xiao himself?

He personally refined it. If it did not belong to him, who else could it belong to?

It looked like he could not casually play with the Creation masterpiece technique in the future.

At the moment, he really wanted to further raise his cultivation.

He originally thought that after synthesizing the third archaic masterpiece technique, his cultivation should be able to raise another level and advance to the second level of the Godslayer realm. Just like in the God realm, every time he synthesized an archaic masterpiece technique, his strength would quickly rise again.

Unfortunately, that time, his cultivation did not increase by much. At the very least, it was far from enough to advance.

Ye Xiao estimated that because his cultivation increased, the spiritual energy needed to advance was more and stronger.

Therefore, after synthesizing the archaic masterpiece technique, there was no way for him to advance to the first level again.

Looks like he should use those poisons to refine some medicinal pills and then advance again.

However, Ye Xiao did not want to do the same thing as the Great Dragon. He considered it for a moment and decided to refine medicinal pills separately.

In other words, he would not use them as a whole to refine an extremely powerful pill. Instead, he would refine each poisonous fog individually.

Doing so would waste a lot of time, but at the same time, it would also cause a slight loss.

That was because other than the star beasts’ blood essence and strength, during the process of refining pills, they would also continuously absorb the heaven and earth spiritual energy in the air.

The higher the grade of the pill, the stronger the heaven and earth spiritual energy it could absorb. On the other hand, the lesser it would be.

Therefore, strictly speaking, low-grade pills were far inferior to high-grade pills.

Unfortunately, there was no other way. Refining a weapon had already attracted the attention of so many people. If the pill refining was any more awesome, what kind of heaven and earth phenomenon would it create? Who knew how many more martial arts experts would be attracted?

Just like that, Ye Xiao used the Creation masterpiece technique to swiftly refine pills. While he was working, he was secretly refining. Perhaps it was because the amount of energy gathered from the pills he refined was not too high, so there was no reaction from the surroundings, it finally made Ye Xiao let out a sigh of relief.

The poison in the Godly King’s tomb had refined a total of over 1,000 pills.

Next, Ye Xiao could eat medicinal pills like he was eating candy beans, continuously increasing his strength.

He roughly estimated that after eating all these medicinal pills, his cultivation would be able to advance to the second level of the Godslayer realm within a short period of time, at least half a month, or at most one month.

That speed was actually quite good. If it were anyone else, to put it bluntly, even if his talent was monstrous, who would be able to advance from the first level of the Godslayer realm to the second level of the Godslayer realm within a few years?

Just before he got off work, two figures quietly arrived near his house. They were Senior Li and his junior brother.

The two of them held the compass in their hands and came to the vicinity of Ye Xiao’s residence. The needle on the compass began to spin wildly.

“The magnetic field has failed. Looks like there’s an extremely valuable treasure in this place. The two of us are lucky.”

“Could it be that Treasured Artifact?”

“No matter what it is, it is a good thing. As long as we can get it, it will definitely be a great fortune. It should be underground. Use the Earth-burrowing Technique and go down.”

“Okay!”

The two of them used the Earth-burrowing Technique and even instantly disappeared from the spot.

In the next second,

Clang!

“Ouch!”

“D*mn! It hurts!”

“Who is so wicked! They set up an array underground! It almost broke my neck.”

“There is an array, which means that there is something good inside. Watch me use a technique to break a hole in the array formation.”

“Senior Li is really smart. How can a mere array stop the two of us?”

With a sinister smile, Senior Li took out a talisman.
