Following the original path, after a few hours, we returned to the outside of the mountains.
Many teams have given up looking for the Flame Flag and returned early.
The moment Chen Xiao and the four stepped out of the mountain range, countless eyes were directed at the four of them.
Dozens of those glances were like poisonous stings, making people feel very uncomfortable.
"Look over there."
Yi Kang exclaimed and pointed to the high platform area. A light curtain appeared in the void, and everything in the mountains could be clearly seen.
"No, what we do is clearly visible to people outside."
Su Ruirui realized that something was wrong. They thought they were doing it without anyone noticing, but they didn't know that all of this was happening under the eyes of everyone.
Chen Xiao frowned slightly. Of course he knew what the light curtain in the void was. It was a principle of refraction.
This can be accomplished with the help of powerful talismans, but ordinary people cannot depict this kind of talisman.
Boundless killing intent, like a tide, rushed toward Chen Xiao crazily.
"Chen Xiao, you have to be careful and don't leave alone for the time being."
Ba Yuxuan secretly reminded that she invited Chen Xiao to participate in the royal hunt. If Chen Xiao died in the capital, she would definitely feel extremely guilty.
"Don't worry, they don't dare to touch me as long as Master is here."
Chen Xiao told them not to worry.
Except for Master, Yu Wentai will not stand idly by.
With his current level of cultivation, refining third-grade elixirs shouldn't be a big problem.
If he becomes a third-grade alchemist, the Alchemy Guild will definitely award him a powerful medal, and even Zong Sheng will be unable to do anything to him.
The four of them returned to the designated area and waited for the royal hunt to end.
Until dusk, all participating teams returned to the outside of the mountains.
More than a thousand people went in, but only about 800 came out alive.
"It's strange why Zong Ling, Wang Chengxing and others haven't come back yet."
The princes who came back later had puzzled looks on their faces, looking for the whereabouts of Zong Ling and others.
"They will not come back. They were all killed by Chen Xiao."
The princes who came back first witnessed Chen Xiao killing them and whispered.
"What!"
Upon hearing the news, everyone looked horrified.
If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would have believed that the powerful Zong Ling would die in Chen Xiao's hands.
"Now announce the results of the competition."
The Minister of Rites came out and announced the results of the royal hunt.
Yi Kang had already taken out the flame flag and planted it in the designated place. Their team successfully won first place.
"Damn it, they got the Flaming Flag."
Seeing that Chen Xiao and the others won first place, many people looked angry.
The crowd was talking a lot. It was very unbalanced that Chen Xiao and the others won first place.
"Four of you please come forward."
The Minister of Rites invited the four of them to come forward and accept the reward.
Chen Xiao and the others walked to the front of the high platform. The Human Emperor walked down from the platform and looked at the four of them.
Especially Chen Xiao, the Human Emperor took a second look.
"You performed very well. As agreed, you can enter the royal treasury and choose three items."
A smile appeared on the corner of the Human Emperor's mouth. He was very satisfied with the performance of the four of them in the past five days.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Su Ruirui and Yi Kang clasped their fists at the same time.
"Thank you, Father!" Bayuxuan bowed and saluted.
Chen Xiao just hugged his fists towards the Human Emperor to show his gratitude.
Chen Xiao did not want to get involved in the battle between the royal families.
Although he killed Zong Ling and others, it does not mean that he is on the side of the royal family.
Everything Chen Xiao does is true to his heart and will never be restricted by anyone.
"Take them with you. After selecting them, I will entertain all the officials."
Several guards came over and took Chen Xiao and the four of them away.
After selecting the treasures, everyone will be entertained in the palace.
"Your Majesty, I am not feeling well, so I will not attend the banquet."
Master Wang stood up and hugged his fists towards the Human Emperor.
"Since the Grand Master is ill, I naturally cannot force him. I will send an imperial physician to diagnose and treat the Grand Master later."
The Human Emperor did not hold back and watched Taishi Wang and the others leave.
One after another, many officials complained of feeling unwell.
In the blink of an eye, the official was about a third away.
The strange thing is that Zong Sheng did not leave. He was still sitting on the high platform, his eyes were deep, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.
This person's city is extremely deep, and it is difficult for ordinary people to figure it out.
Returning to the capital, after passing through several side halls, a huge iron gate appeared in front of the four of them.
The guard took out a special key and opened the heavy iron door.
"Kakaka..."
The iron door made a rattling sound, and a smell of dust hit my face.
"You only have one hour."
The guard signaled that the four of them could go in.
There are experts in charge of the royal treasury, so we are not afraid of them going in to get more.
The four of them filed in, looking at the rows of shelves, Yi Kang's eyes turned red.
"The east is the elixir area, the west is the martial arts area, the south is the weapons area, and the north is the elixir area."
After entering, in order to shorten the time, Bayuxuan introduced the three of them.
This makes it easier for them to search and saves a lot of time.
"I'm going east!"
After Su Ruirui finished speaking, she headed east.
"I'm going to the west!"
Yi Kang went straight to the west to find a powerful martial arts.
"Chen Xiao, what about you?"
Seeing that Chen Xiao didn't move, Ba Yuxuan asked.
"You go first!"
Chen Xiao signaled to Bayuxuan not to worry about him.
Although Bayuxuan is the third princess of the current dynasty, the things in the royal treasury are not qualified to be moved at will, even by the emperor.
This is the wealth of the Baiyun Kingdom, and it is usually only used when going through a war.
Bayuxuan nodded and walked towards the east. The royal family had collected many good elixirs over the years.
If you can find one, you can use the elixir to break through your cultivation.
Chen Xiao went straight to the south. His goal was to find a weapon that he could use.
The south area is very large, with a variety of weapons on display, mostly long swords, as well as scimitars, spears, etc.
Chen Xiao was not in a hurry, one hour was enough for him to choose three things.
He picked up a few long swords, weighed them in his hands, and then put them back.
These weapons are only slightly stronger than ordinary weapons, barely reaching the level of spiritual weapons.
Still unable to withstand Chen Xiao's immortal energy.
Yi Kang should choose a good martial arts skill and yell excitedly. His voice can be heard from a long distance away.
As he shuttled among the weapons, Chen Xiao frowned.
"Can't you find a good long sword in the treasure house?"
At the end of the journey, most of the long swords were inspected by Chen Xiao, and they were far from meeting his requirements.
Sudden!
The Nine Heavens Divine Furnace moved, reminding Chen Xiao.
This happened last time when I was looking for the mysterious three-legged alchemy furnace.
"Did Jiuxiao Divine Furnace discover something good again?"
Chen Xiao's eyes were shining, and he was looking around. The Nine Heavens Divine Furnace reminded him that a treasure must be born.
According to the beating frequency of the Nine Heavens Divine Furnace, Chen Xiao walked towards the right front, where there were fewer weapons.
There were few weapons on the shelves, and several of the long swords had many gaps and serious damage.
At the bottom of the shelf, a dark long sword appeared in Chen Xiao's sight.
After getting closer, the Nine Heavens Divine Furnace jumped quickly.
"That's him!"
Chen Xiao took a lunge and appeared in front of the sword.
He reached out and grasped the hilt of the sword, and when he was about to pick it up, the sword didn't move at all.
"So heavy?"
Chen Xiao had a look of horror on his face.
He suddenly exerted force and increased his strength.
The long sword left the shelf little by little, and the entire sword appeared in front of Chen Xiao. It turned out to be an unopened black long sword.
The sword is about three fingers wide, about three and a half feet long, and weighs a thousand kilograms.
Chen Xiao held it in his hand with great difficulty. He could only lift it by using his true energy.
It weighs a thousand kilograms, and most people cannot wield it unless they are born with divine power.
No wonder this long sword is placed here, covered with a thick layer of dust.
