Feng Jun brought along the Big Boss; they were definitely going to explore a treasure, sothing planned long ago.
Initially, when he was at the sixth level of the Outermost Realm, the Big Boss urged him to improve his cultivation level, all for retrieving treasures in the Endless Sea.
Even the fake identity of the "Porsche" to the Endless Sea was to pave the way for the treasure hunt.
The Big Boss said it would be safer to co here at the high rank of the Outermost Realm, but unexpectedly, even at the eighth level, he almost didn’t make it.
The two of them even mocked each other about it.
However, the treasure location of the Big Boss isn’t far from Netherworld Island, not more than ten thousand miles—really quite close.
But without coordinates on the vast sea, it’s indeed tricky, much worse than the Bewildering Soul Forest.
In fact, flying in the Endless Sea after coming out of the Netherworld Mist is very dangerous; this is already the depths of the Endless Sea, and ordinary Golden Cores wouldn’t dare to play like this.
But Feng Jun felt that he was already a seasoned driver, and when it ca to self-defense... who could be better than him?
And the Big Boss also underestimated this "dangerous location," casually stating, "Just look around here, the fiercest thing is a Demon Beast of Golden Core level, fearing that they won’t dare to co. If they co, it would be a good chance to get so Demon Cores."
Feng Jun remained silent for a while, then let out a soft sigh, "Big Boss, after absorbing the Wrath Devil, you seem a bit inflated."
"Inflated? I feel I’m still deflated," the Big Boss said nonchalantly, "Once we secure this secret chamber, I guarantee... you’ll easily conquer this Endless Sea."
"Better not make guarantees," Feng Jun hurriedly stopped her, "Your mouth is poisonous, don’t casually set yourself up."
"Brother Fly, what is that?" The Big Boss was very eager to learn, especially vocabulary from Feng Jun’s dinsion, fascinated since the society it encountered was different, "I don’t even have a body... and you’re talking to about a mouth?"
As they bickered, they searched around, and after about a day, the Big Boss finally confird a location on the sea surface, "Here it is, go in, a bit deeper..."
Feng Jun sensed, "There are five or six Wild Beasts..."
"Wild Beasts... is that even a thing?" The Big Boss was excessively cocky now, "Go in, just keep going down... no fear, no matter how deep."
How do I suspect you’re taking for a ride? Feng Jun hesitated for a mont, then dived into the sea.
The seabed here was a lot more gradual but quite deep, approximately over a thousand ters—in the nearby sea, this was considered deep.
After landing on the seabed, Feng Jun indeed went "in, a bit deeper," as he was directly commanded by the Big Boss to dig a hole on the ground.
The taste of digging a hole on the seabed is known only to those who do it; Feng Jun didn’t mind much, bearing the seawater as he dug a pit over thirty feet deep.
It was indeed a big pit; the seabed here was flat, mainly mud and fine sand, making it impossible to dig vertically. The pit Feng Jun dug was over thirty feet deep, but the diater of the pit opening exceeded a hundred feet.
Finally, he reached the rock layer, and the Big Boss couldn’t help but marvel, "This Redwood Spirit can really make a ss; it actually flattened such a large sea area."
It turns out this was a rocky sea bed with only a thin layer of fine sand. The Redwood Spirit discovered the Big Boss’s treasury, took treasures, and filled it with sand and gravel to cover it up.
The Big Boss’s treasury had a layer of Illusion Array on the outside, which was also broken by the Redwood Spirit. The entrance was blocked with simple Big Stones, plus a sealing formation.
For Feng Jun, where there is leverage to use, the sealing formation was nothing; he broke the formation and entered the stone cave.
As he descended the steps, he saw the aura of a defensive formation, but the Big Boss said, "Just go straight through; with high-rank Outermost Realm spiritual energy, you can enter."
So the high-rank Outermost Realm claim referred to the qualification to enter the stone cave.
Feng Jun enveloped himself in spiritual energy, easily passing through the defensive formation, while the seawater was blocked outside the defensive halo.
The stone cave wasn’t small, around three hundred square ters, over five ters high, divided into more than ten rooms. The stone cave ceiling was filled with Luminous Pearls emitting a misty light, illuminating the entire place brightly.
Feng Jun entered each room one by one, finding nothing inside, not even a strand of hair.
The Big Boss didn’t react, letting him inspect around, finally letting out a sigh, "This guy looted... not ordinarily clean, I clearly left a few bottles of pills and more than ten books."
Feng Jun’s expression darkened a bit; just this little amount, and you claim there’s a lot?
The Big Boss seed to have guessed his thoughts and said, "I mainly wanted to arrange this place into a hermit ascetic’s retreat, so it doesn’t matter if intruders take so items to cover up the real treasure."
Feng Jun looked up at the large number of Luminous Pearls on the stone cave ceiling, wondering if the Big Boss misunderstood the term "ascetic cultivator."
Luminous Pearls might not be worth much among cultivators, but having the ti to gather so many to decorate a room—should an ascetic cultivator do this?
The Big Boss directed him to a not-so-large room, instructing him to hit the wall with all his strength.
Feng Jun struck with all his strength, and instantly, a misty little door appeared on the wall, seemingly illusionary but real.
The Big Boss snorted lightly, "Hmph, if anyone could break through this layer of defense, I’d be impressed by that scoundrel!"
Feng Jun couldn’t help but ask, "How do you know that no one has broken through?"
The Big Boss thought this question was stupid, "Is your brain not enough? Both layers of the defensive formation are still active. If it had been broken, the formation would lose power and shut down long ago."
Then it taught Feng Jun a set of gestures, instructing him to make a gesture.
Feng Jun was a bit curious, "Can’t Xiao Bai or the Phantom Devil do this? I don’t want to see your treasure trove... it might harm my Dao heart."
"I have my reasons for making you do it," the Big Boss didn’t explain its motives, "It’s not convenient for those two."
A series of gestures were cast out, and the illusionary door twisted, a door knocker appearing on it.
Following the Big Boss’s instructions, Feng Jun twisted the knocker two and a half tis to the left, three tis to the right, then knocked nine tis lightly on the door with it.
The stone cave seed to shake slightly, then the small door disappeared, a faint white light shining from the opening.
Upon entering the small door, it turned out to be identical to the layout of the outside stone cave, except there were many more things inside, complete with tables and chairs and everything else.
Soon after, the space beside Feng Jun distorted, and a fuzzy white figure appeared and spoke, "Follow to the study."
Feng Jun had never heard the Big Boss speaking before, but at that mont he was certain that this was the Big Boss’s illusionary figure, so he asked with his mind, "Is there sothing inconvenient?"
"Maybe I’ll need your help," the white shadow answered in a deep voice, "By the way, let i Jin out."
Good scenery was released from the Spirit Beast Bag. Seeing this scene, she was first startled, then looked toward Feng Jun.
Seeing that he had no intention to explain, Teacher i didn’t ask further and simply reached out, holding his hand, fingers interlocking.
As it turned out, the Big Boss was a bit overly cautious; no accidents happened after entering the study.
The study wasn’t large, about twenty square ters, which isn’t big for a house three hundred square ters in size.
The study had rows of bookshelves filled with Obsidian, clearly sets of cultivation techniques.
However, the Big Boss’s attention was on the study’s only desk, one ter square, with an inkstone, a paperweight, a ring, and two sachets, one white and one red, on top.
The white shadow hesitated for a mont, then spoke slowly, "Feng Jun... could you help open that white Spirit Beast Bag?"
Feng Jun was truly hesitant this ti, "What’s inside?"
The white shadow took out a Soul Stone sealed with the Void Demon and spoke softly, "Don’t worry, even if there’s danger, it’s directed at . You can take your people and leave to another plane."
Feng Jun thought about it and realized that was correct, but he also didn’t want it to fall into danger, "Should I take you with ?"
The white shadow sighed softly, "It must be faced eventually, but don’t worry... the danger isn’t great."
Feng Jun pondered for a mont, feeling that soone as cautious as the Big Boss wouldn’t let himself fall into danger, so he stepped forward and picked up the white sachet, taking out its contents.
It turned out to be another Soul Stone! Fist-sized, belonging to the normal range of Soul Stones, larger than the one the Big Boss was in.
After waiting for a while, Feng Jun found nothing unusual and then asked, "Now... is it safe?"
"It’s safe," the white shadow answered softly, then put away the Soul Stone sealing the Void Demon and disappeared.
Then, the Big Boss’s thoughts ca over again, "Alright, put the Soul Stone that holds with that one, and you can go look in other rooms."
Feng Jun hesitated for a mont but still asked solemnly, "What does this an?"
"I have a Soul Split inside," the Big Boss answered, with a hint of ruefulness, "So the potential danger just now was..."
Feng Jun already understood, "You’re worried that it developed an independent main personality consciousness?"
"Yes, that’s a very precise wording," the Big Boss’s mood was slightly downcast, "But now it seems, it has fallen into sleep, just as I initially planned, allowing to smoothly fuse with it."
Feng Jun blinked, "So, you left the Void Demon to deal with your own Soul Split?"
"I actually didn’t want to do this, but I must be cautious," the Big Boss seed a bit helpless, "I don’t want to beco soone who is not myself... the main personality consciousness; I’m very particular about being this main entity."
"Understood," Feng Jun nodded, "The second persona, third persona can coexist, but you must ensure the main entity remains as the main entity... is that correct?"
"Yes," the Big Boss answered decisively, hesitated a mont, and added two sentences, "In fact, at the Divine Spirit Stage, one splits out a personality consciousness... but personally, I’m very averse to splitting out a personality consciousness."
"So they don’t need to coexist; becoming a sub-level existence is quite good, and as for reversing and affecting the main consciousness, I absolutely cannot accept that. I would rather fight to the death than let a bit of non-mainstream consciousness in my heart grow large and beco the main entity."
