Chapter 868

At this moment, there were four people standing in front of the monk.

"Monk, you know fortune-telling too?" One of them asked.

"Monks don't lie." The monk's body was emitting a faint golden light. He looked like an enlightened monk, just that he was slightly younger.

"You mean, you can tell that we have a calamity recently?"

"This old monk is using the Qi Reading Technique. I can't be wrong." The monk said with a benevolent expression.

"Then, I wonder if you can tell that you have a calamity recently?" Another person sneered.

Just as the other person finished speaking, the four of them had already surrounded the monk with unfriendly expressions.

"Benefactor, what do you mean by this? I'm here to save you. Why are you acting like this?" The monk asked curiously.

"Calamity, Calamity Ghost's trash! Monk, it's your calamity to run into us! Brothers, let's show this monk who ran into calamity! Go!"

One of them gave the order and the four of them attacked together.

Then, all kinds of lights flashed and the sound of explosions rang out continuously.

This sound continued for a total of three breaths. After three breaths, the various lights were withdrawn and the sound also disappeared.

The monk was still standing there with his palms together. With a benevolent expression, he chanted, "Amitabha. I've said that you will have a calamity. Now, you should believe me."

At this moment, the four of them had already fallen to the ground and were looking at the monk in horror. On their bodies, there were injuries caused by punches. One of them even had the corner of his mouth smashed and his eyes swollen.

"You, you are an evil monk." One of them pointed at the monk and said with a trembling voice.

The monk's combat strength was really strong. In just three breaths, he had defeated four people.

"Benefactors, there is no need to be angry. You should know that wealth is the source of evil. You should let it go."

The monk enlightened them while taking away their Spirit Rings. Then, he forcefully broke the owner recognition and took away the resources inside.

"You, you …" One of them was so angry that his fingers were trembling.

"Benefactor, you are thinking too much. As the saying goes, evil is born from resources and calamity is caused by resources. Without resources, there will be no calamity." The monk had already taken away the resources in three Spirit Rings.

"Since the resources are the cause of the disaster, why did you take them away, you evil baldy?" Another person was furious.

"Buddha said, if I don't enter hell, who will? This old monk is willing to shoulder your troubles. As the saying goes, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-floor pagoda." The monk put his palms together and chanted the name of Buddha. He had already taken away all their resources.

Among the four of them, two of them couldn't stand the monk and directly vomited blood and fainted. The other two were also trembling.

"Benefactors, today's matter is Old Monk's duty. You don't need to thank me. We will meet again if fate wills it."

The other two people also fainted completely after the monk finished speaking.

In this treasure hunt, it was foreseeable that all the trial challengers of this world would come. It was fine if they didn't find anything good, but once they did, it would naturally be a battle to the death.

At that time, he might even have to face all the Xiantian Lords alone.

Having sensed the danger in advance, Zi Chen entered the Treasure Pavilion for the third time and found the old man directly.

"Little friend, you're here." When the old man saw Zi Chen, he was as happy and enthusiastic as ever.

"Don't be in a hurry to tell me why you're here. Let me guess. Your third visit should be for the mysterious items, right?"

"If it's not for the mysterious items, could it be for the junk outside?" Zi Chen said indifferently.

"Hehe, you're indeed here for the mysterious items. Why? Are you worried that this treasure hunt will be dangerous? Have you prepared the items?" The old man looked at Zi Chen with a smile.

"Same old rules. Five for one item, and give me another forty items." Zi Chen said straightforwardly.

"No, no."

The old man waved his hand and said, "Little friend, you might be mistaken. The mysterious items I have here are all excellent items with great destructive power. If you want to exchange them with Fruits of Power, you'll need ten Fruits of Power to exchange for one item. No bargaining."

Zi Chen stared at the old man. "Ten? Why don't you rob me?"

"I'm a businessman. I don't rob."

"So you're serious. You really want ten."

The old man smiled. "I'm an honest businessman. I never lie. Ten is ten. No bargaining. If you don't want it, please leave."

"You …" Zi Chen was angry.

But before he could finish, a Xiantian Lord rushed to the old man and said, "Hey, are you still exchanging? I've been waiting for half a day."

The old man immediately turned and said, "Exchange, of course exchange."

After saying that, the old man walked towards the other party. Before he left, he proudly said to Zi Chen, "Ten pellets, it is ten pellets. No bargaining."

"No bargaining my ass. You're so black-hearted. Who would want to exchange with you?" Zi Chen said fiercely.

"Hey, you poor bastard. If you don't have the resources to exchange, why are you cursing others? Do you even know how to talk?" The Xiantian Lord who threatened to exchange said unhappily.

Zi Chen ignored him. He coldly snorted and turned to leave. The old man's behavior made Zi Chen extremely angry. For a little bit of resources, he had lost his conscience. He was a big customer, an old customer. How could he be so heartless?

After leaving the Treasure Pavilion, Zi Chen was extremely unwilling to give up. He went to the other shops to look around. There were some good things in these shops that were comparable to Mystical Items, but with the Treasure Map from the Heavens, these things were ridiculously expensive. Moreover, the attitude of the shop owners was extremely tough, not allowing Zi Chen to bargain at all.

All the Trial Takers had to go treasure hunting and were fully prepared. These things that could threaten Xiantian Lords were naturally in high demand. They weren't afraid of not being able to sell them.

Thus, Zi Chen, who had been shopping for a day, didn't get anything. He could only return resentfully.

Two days passed quickly. Everyone gathered once more.

Compared to Zi Chen's group of five, the other powers had sent many more people. Each of them had no less than ten Xiantian experts.

That was an extremely terrifying number. Just the direct family had that many Xiantian experts, and that wasn't even including the branch family disciples who had long since left. The five powers were truly worthy of being the ones in charge of the Martial Heaven Alliance. That kind of foundation made Zi Chen speechless.

Other than the Xiantian experts, there were also many Houtian experts whose combat power was only slightly weaker than the Xiantian experts.

Tian level cultivators, the whole group was surprisingly full of Tian level cultivators, a group of Tian level cultivators, but in this group of people, these Houtian level cultivators were actually the weakest.

Everyone greeted each other. Now that they had the complete treasure map, the Sword Sect's people hadn't left yet. They were clearly still thinking about the use of the jade piece.

Everyone set off. Along the way, Jian Ren said, "Brother Zi Chen, you didn't bring many people."

"How could I bring anyone? These are all my friends."

Zi Chen joked, "Seeing so many of you, I'm already starting to regret traveling with you. Look at how many people you have, and we only have a few. We definitely won't be able to get any benefits from following you."

Everyone laughed when they heard this.

The group rushed out of the city in a grandiose manner. In addition to this group of people, there were even more Trial Takers leaving the city in groups of three to five. This resulted in too many people leaving the city. The guards couldn't take care of them all, so they simply stopped checking the tokens.

Adding on the Sword Sect's group, there were six powers in total. They had over two hundred Xiantian experts. This group naturally drew a lot of attention.

On the way, there were fierce battles between trial takers over resources. There were also corpses with their Yuan Cores dug out on the ground.

However, wherever Zi Chen's group passed, those fierce battles would stop. All the trial takers would intentionally avoid them.

That was because there were dozens of Xiantian experts in this group. No one dared to provoke them.

After the group left Heaven's Pride City, they began to speed up. The place the treasure map pointed to was very far from here. There was still a long way to go.

At this moment, if one were in this world, they would definitely be able to see all the trial takers in this world appear from all directions, heading towards a black spot.

And there were actually people in the sky above this world. If Zi Chen were here, he would definitely be able to recognize one of them.

There were two old men standing in the sky above this world. One of them was the one who had given Zi Chen ten times the contribution points.

"Using the treasure map to lure all the trial takers there, is this okay?"

"Due to the rules, we can't show ourselves. And we have no other way, so we can only rely on these little guys."

"Those powers are really despicable. For their own selfish reasons, they dare to do such crazy things based on some guesses. Such inhumane methods really deserve to be killed."

"If they deserve to be killed, who will kill them? Sun, Moon, Star, Lei? Hmph, Lei won't do. As for Sun, Moon, and Star, in the great battle back then, whether or not they left behind any inheritance is another matter."

Just as the two were chatting, many trial takers entered the black spot. That was the place where the treasure was located, and also everyone's final goal.

After a pause, the two old men spoke again.

"This is a huge gamble. Whether or not the cards are good is still a question, but whether or not they can be of great use is still uncertain. There are too many uncertain factors in this gamble. Our chances of winning are less than 65%."

"This is a bet. We should be glad that we have such a card in our hands. Even if there's only a 65% chance of winning, there's still a chance of winning."

Just as the two old men were talking about the bet, the black spot below had already begun a chaotic battle.

This was a real chaotic battle. There were people fighting against people, and also people fighting against beasts.

The beasts had suddenly rushed out after breaking a seal here. There were many of them. After these beasts appeared, they rushed towards the trial takers.

The battle between the trial takers and the beasts also broke out in an instant.

As for the battle between people, some of the trial takers were trying to take advantage of the situation and sneak attack the humans who were fighting against the beasts.

One had to know that for every person killed, they would be able to obtain a Yuan Dan and a Spirit Ring. Perhaps there would be many resources in the Spirit Ring.

Therefore, the chaotic battle broke out. Due to the fact that some of the trial takers were too smart, the death toll of the trial takers was already twice that of the beasts. And this number was still rapidly increasing.
