Chai Chuanxin held the treasure in his arms, sprinting wildly through the stone cave, not even caring when one of his shoes flew off. At this mont, Chai Chuanxin’s heart was filled with disbelief, never imagining that he would have such great luck, with the grave goods from the Ancient Divine Demon coffin directly crashing into his embrace, recognizing him as their master!
What kind of incredible fortune is this? It’s like a dream!
Having obtained a treasure, he dared not continue coveting the remaining treasures in the tree coffin, sprinting away to avoid being pursued by those old fellows once they freed themselves.
Chai Chuanxin ran in the darkness, while Zhang Chen, having transford into a Vampire Bat, reached him in no more than thirty breaths. However, Zhang Chen did not pause and instead flew ahead of Chai Chuanxin, revealing himself in a secret chamber, then activating the Invisibility Rune to enter an invisible state.
Chai Chuanxin was not versed in Martial Dao, rely an ordinary person. Zhang Chen used an Invisibility Rune to enter an invisible state, and as Chai Chuanxin stepped past the bronze door, Zhang Chen preemptively extended his hand holding the Body-Stabilizing Rune, blocking Chai Chuanxin’s path, causing Chai Chuanxin to directly collide with Zhang Chen’s Body-Stabilizing Rune, freezing his body in place.
"Damn it! I was ambushed!" Chai Chuanxin’s excited heart suddenly felt as if it had been doused with cold water, his eyes filled with horror and resentnt.
Zhang Chen stood behind Chai Chuanxin, his eyes on Chai Chuanxin’s back, a hint of killing intent flashing in his gaze. He always rembered his master’s vengeance.
Then Zhang Chen reached out, rummaging through Chai Chuanxin’s embrace and directly retrieving the mysterious jade box.
The jade box was not big, only the size of a fist, emitting a mysterious aura, quite eye-catching in the darkness.
Zhang Chen affixed the Sealing Rune onto the box, seeing the mysterious aura on the box diminish by thirty percent but not entirely concealed. Zhang Chen simply placed four more Sealing Runes on it, causing the box’s glow to dim and all the mysterious aura to be suppressed.
Zhang Chen didn’t have ti to scrutinize the box, quickly tucking it into his sleeve, then turned to look at Chai Chuanxin’s back, a hint of killing intent swirling in his eyes. In the next mont, an ice dagger ford in his sleeve, directly piercing Chai Chuanxin’s heart.
Chai Chuanxin looked at the ice dagger passing through his chest, disbelief flashing in his eyes. He had just obtained a mysterious Creation, hadn’t even ward it yet, and now he was about to lose his life because of it, feeling exceedingly aggrieved.
"I just obtained the mysterious Creation, I am the chosen one by fortune, I haven’t even had the chance to achieve greatness and fa yet, how can I die here?" Chai Chuanxin’s eyes were filled with unwillingness, yet no matter how filled he was with resentnt, he was powerless. As his vitality drained away, his whole body slowly collapsed to the ground.
"You deserve to die! Dying so easily is truly a bargain for you." Zhang Chen looked at Chai Chuanxin’s body lying on the ground, then quickly put away the Body-Stabilizing Rune, lted the ice dagger, and swiftly walked into the darkness.
However, Zhang Chen had barely taken two steps in the darkness when his footsteps suddenly paused. Golden Light flashed automatically in his eyes, and in the dark passage, a transparent fox appeared.
The fox had three tails, its body transparent, rging with the darkness. The Fox Spirit crept through the darkness stealthily, unaware of the invisible Zhang Chen.
The Fox Spirit approached Chai Chuanxin, circling him once before suddenly opening its mouth and inhaling towards Chai Chuanxin’s body, directly extracting Chai Chuanxin’s soul.
"Don’t swallow ! Don’t swallow ! Spare !" Chai Chuanxin’s soul wailed incessantly, struggling against being devoured: "I am a disciple of Mr. Wu from the Academy. If you spare my life, I will surely repay you greatly in the future."
Upon hearing this, the fox’s devouring action halted, its eyes on Chai Chuanxin. In the next mont, it truly did not devour Chai Chuanxin’s soul and instead spoke, "Are you really Mr. Wu’s disciple?"
"Genuine! My na is Chai Chuanxin, recently accepted as Mr. Wu’s disciple. As long as you inquire a bit, you can uncover the truth. If you save my life, I assure you, you’ll be greatly rewarded in the future."
The Fox Spirit’s eyes twirled upon hearing this, looking up and down at Chai Chuanxin’s soul, a hint of cunning in its gaze:
"If you want not to swallow you, it’s not impossible to let you go, but you must gamble with . If you win, I’ll resurrect you. If you lose, you’ll give everything, and I’ll replace your Life Chart to continue living, what do you say?"
"Ah..." Chai Chuanxin was shocked upon hearing this: "How... how can I gamble on this?"
The Fox Spirit said irritably, "Are you going to bet or not? If you don’t, I’ll swallow you directly and you can be done with it. If you’re willing to gamble with , you still have a chance to co back to life."
Seeing the Fox Spirit’s fierce look, Chai Chuanxin could only sigh helplessly: "Fine! I’ll gamble! But I don’t know what the wager is?"
The Fox Spirit’s eyes glead cunningly in response, extending a phantom hand with a bizarre symbol on it, resembling a scale, touching Chai Chuanxin’s hand and linking them with a strange wave.
"I’ll pose a question. If you guess correctly, you win. If you guess wrong, you lose." The fox grinned, "Guess how many tails I have? First option, three tails. Second option, five tails."
