The Treasure Chest System With Its Infinite Mysteries

3The strongest country in the east of the continent was called Cloud Ocean Kingdom. It had a long border and was close to the ocean.    1

    

In the south was the vast and unpredictable Hundred Thousand Mountain, and the Chu Kingdom was the leader.    

    

The western region was complicated. Plains, deserts, hills, and countless other regions were mixed together, forming the Holy Fire Union with mixed forces.    

    

In the north was an endless windstorm ice field. It was desolate and uninhabited, but there was no existence of a large country.    

    

In the central region, the Great Qian Empire, which was fighting against the Cloud Ocean Kingdom, Chu Kingdom, and Holy Fire Union alone, was rich in resources and fertile soil. It was most suitable for the survival of humans, so it was also the most powerful country.    

    

Besides these four major powers, there were also countless small countries. They lived among these powers and swayed left and right, facing the fate of being annexed by the four major powers at any time.    

    

"That's right. These four major powers have existed for more than a thousand years. Their foundations are unbelievably powerful."    

    

Lau Lee nodded, and then she changed the topic, "But if you want to participate in the Holy Tree Ritual, you must prepare to become enemies with these four major powers!"    

    

"What?"    

    

Su Jin was shocked. Becoming enemies with these four major powers, perhaps even the legendary Martial Emperor wouldn't have the guts to do so. "Why do I have to become the enemy of the four major powers just because I want to participate in this?!"    

    

Lau Lee smiled mysteriously, "Because if you want to participate in the Holy Tree Ritual, you must obtain four kinds of supreme treasures. These four supreme treasures are regarded as the greatest treasures of the four major powers. No outsider is allowed to covet them!"    

    

Su Jin's heart sank. According to Lau Lee's words, it seemed that the difficulty of participating in the Holy Tree Ritual was really not simple.    

    

It was imaginable how difficult it was to obtain things that were regarded as national treasures by the four kingdoms.    

    

"Do you still want to continue to understand what these four supreme treasures are?"    

    

Lau Lee looked at Su Jin and said with a smile that was not a smile.    

    

"Continue."    

    

Su Jin nodded without hesitation. No matter how difficult it was, so what? He did not believe that this could stump him.    

    

"The holy flame used by the priests in the Sacred Fire Temple!" Lau Lee said.    

    

Su Jin raised his eyebrows. According to what he knew, the Holy Fire Union had worshipped the Fire God since ancient times. Countless temples were built to worship that god, but the holy fire temple... It was the Sacred Fire used to worship. It was absolutely not allowed to be blasphemed.    

    

"Underworld Bead from the Chu Kingdom's Devil Suppressing Pagoda!"    

    

Lau Lee said again.    

    

Su Jin's expression changed again. There were countless powerful demonic devils living in Hundred Thousand Mountain in the south, and they would occasionally barge into Chu Kingdom's territory to kill.    

    

Because of this, the Chu Kingdom had built a Devil Suppressing Pagoda and had suppressed countless demonic devils. It would be extremely difficult for them to enter the Devil Suppressing Pagoda, let alone obtain the treasures inside.    

    

"The Kui Water Soul of the Ocean Dragon Palace of the Cloud Ocean Kingdom!"    

    

Upon hearing this, Su Jin became numb. The difficulty of obtaining the Sunflower Water Soul Essence was no less than the previous two.    

    

"And the Heavenly Essence Stone in the tomb of the imperial family of Da Qian!"    

    

After Lau Lee finished speaking, a smile appeared on her pretty face. "After hearing this, do you still plan to participate in the Holy Tree Ritual?"    

    

"Of course I want to participate!"    

    

Su Jin clenched his fists and replied without hesitation.    

    

The difficulty of obtaining these four supreme treasures made his scalp tingle. However, his determination to participate in the Holy Tree Ritual was not shaken at all.    

    

This answer made Lau Lee's expression freeze. She looked at Su Jin in surprise. "Are you kidding me? Any one of these four supreme treasures will be difficult to reach the heavens, let alone four."    

    

"So what? I only know that if I don't try it, I will regret it for the rest of my life."    

    

Su Jin coldly harrumphed. If a man could give up his own woman, what right did he have to be a man?    

    

Lau Lee seemed to have sensed Su Jin's determination. She was silent for a moment and said, "Why did you participate in the Holy Tree Ritual?"    

    

"This is my secret."    

    

Su Jin coughed. It was not suitable to tell her about this. "By the way, why did you participate in the Holy Tree Ritual? Why did you have to obtain these four supreme treasures? Are you lying to me?"    

    

He couldn't understand. Just by participating in this ceremony, one had to become enemies with the four great nations. How could the four great nations tolerate the existence of such a ceremony?    

    

Lau Lee rolled her eyes at Su Jin and said snappily, "Believe it or not, I told you out of goodwill, and you still doubt me."    

    

"Soray, Soray, I was wrong!"    

    

Su Jin quickly raised his hand and apologized, "Then can you tell me what kind of person organized this Holy Tree Ritual? How dare you be so bold as to use the treasures of the four kingdoms as admission tickets?"    

    

"How dare you?"    

    

A mocking expression appeared on Lau Lee's cold face, "Even the emperors of the four major powers wouldn't dare to say the word bold to the person who held the ceremony. However, it is meaningless for you to know these things now. Wait until you truly become an expert, then you can go and understand it yourself."    

    

"Alright, I really don't know much about this world"    

    

Su Jin took a deep breath. He also knew that in the past, what he understood was only the superficial knowledge of True Martial Continent. Since there was such a Holy Tree Ritual, there must be a reason for it to exist.    

    

The only thing he could do was to obtain these four supreme treasures first.    

    

"Let's get that Heavenly Essence Stone first."    

    

Su Jin's eyes sparkled. The Imperial Tombs of the Great Qian Dynasty were the closest to him. Furthermore, he had the profession of tomb raider, so it was the easiest for him to break into the tomb. Thus, obtaining the Heavenly Essence Stone was the easiest.    

    

Unexpectedly, when Lau Lee heard this, she revealed a look of looking at an idiot. She couldn't help but say, "Are you an idiot? Outside the tomb of the Great Qian Imperial Family. But with the Great Qian Imperial Family's Martial Monarch Stage Expert in charge, you want to barge into the tomb of the Imperial Family. It's better to jump off a cliff and commit suicide."    

    

Su Jin's face darkened. "Martial Monarch Stage Expert? No way. "    

    

Above the Martial Ancestor, there were a few major realms, namely Martial Lord, Martial King, and Martial Emperor!    

    

With Su Jin's current strength, he couldn't even defeat a Martial Spirit Stage, let alone a supreme existence like that.    

    

"What do you think? The tomb of a country is an important place, how could the imperial family of Great Qian not send a peerless expert to guard it?"    

    

Lau Lee said in a mocking tone, "I can guarantee that with your current strength, even if you are a thousand or ten thousand times stronger, you will not be able to get close to the Imperial Tombs."    

    

Su Jin did not doubt Lau Lee's words. The power of a Martial Monarch Stage was unquestionable. Such an existence could move mountains and fill seas with a flick of his hand and destroy cities with incredible power.    

    

"If you really want these four supreme treasures, compared to them, the Underworld Bead in the Devil Suppressing Pagoda is the simplest because no one would want to enter the Devil Suppressing Pagoda. Naturally, the experts of the Chu Kingdom wouldn't stop you from entering."    

    

Lau Lee saw Su Jin's dilemma and said softly. "Of course, that's only relatively simple. Those who enter the Devil Suppressing Pagoda will most likely die. It's impossible for them to escape."    

    

"If you can't even obtain the Underworld Bead, I advise you to give up participating in the Holy Tree Ritual as soon as possible."    

    

"Underworld Bead!"    

    

Su Jin muttered to himself, remembering Lau Lee's words in his heart. Just as she had said, if he couldn't even get the 'simplest' Underworld Bead, what qualifications did he have to obtain the other three supreme treasures?    

    

"After this trip to the Heavenly Devil Mountain Range ends, I will head to the Devil Suppressing Pagoda of the Chu Kingdom and seize the Underworld Bead."    

    

He closed his eyes. From the beginning to the end, he had never thought of giving up.
