Primordial Star Scripture-Chapter 1166 - 1106: Madness

The Ice Divine Grass, with countless leaves hundreds of feet long, rolls and kills through the air. At the peak lord level, the Ice Divine Grass is like a god of war, able to annihilate everything!

However, Hua Tianjue, who is half a step into the Cosmic Emperor Realm and capable of cross-realm combat, is even more formidable.

When Hua Tianjue unleashed an overwhelming fire attack toward the Ice Divine Grass, flames erupted skyward and instantly burned toward all the leaves of the Ice Divine Grass.

The Ice Divine Grass seemed to sense a life-and-death crisis, and in an instant retracted all its leaves. Meanwhile, its entire body began to emit Divine Light, transforming into a cone-like body of Divine Light, ready to resist Hua Tianjue’s attack.

Seeing Hua Tianjue take action, Ye Chen and all others paused their attacks, watching the battle between Hua Tianjue and the Ice Divine Grass.

At this moment, Hua Tianjue’s flame attack missed the leaves but did not retract. It directly formed incredibly fast fireballs, which bombarded the defending Ice Divine Grass.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each fireball exploded upon impact with the Ice Divine Grass’s body.

When dozens of fireballs bombarded the Ice Divine Grass’s body, the Ice Divine Grass realized it couldn’t withstand Hua Tianjue’s attack further and astonishingly spun "whirl" in mid-air, transforming its entire body into a different form—a state resembling ice spikes.

Whoosh!

In this state, the Ice Divine Grass’s speed increased enormously, dodging the fireball attacks and directly shooting back at Hua Tianjue!

This Ice Divine Grass, befitting its status as a peak lord level demon, is not as easy to deal with as the previous Treasure Cave guardian, the fiery serpent.

However.

No matter how difficult it is to handle, it is fundamentally not Hua Tianjue’s match.

Seeing the Ice Divine Grass counterattack, Hua Tianjue did not fear but laughed. He grasped at the void toward the rapidly approaching Ice Divine Grass.

Something astonishing happened.

In the void, an icy aura unexpectedly formed around the Ice Divine Grass—a chill that instantly stopped the naturally ice-attributed Ice Divine Grass, freezing it in mid-air.

Evidently, the cold aura driven by Hua Tianjue was a more terrifying and profound level of icy power than the chill emitted by the Ice Divine Grass.

The Ice Divine Grass couldn’t resist at all!

"A little demon guarding treasures, just at the peak lord combat power, dares to attack me, truly naive."

Hua Tianjue glanced at the frozen Ice Divine Grass and shook his head with a smile. Then, he pointed a finger, releasing an eerie white mist within the freezing power encasing the Ice Divine Grass. As soon as this white mist appeared, it enveloped the Ice Divine Grass entirely. Moments later, the entire Ice Divine Grass, along with the freezing power in the void, disappeared without a trace, as if the Ice Divine Grass never existed.

The peak lord level Ice Divine Grass, thus perished before the second Treasure Cave!

At this moment, observing Hua Tianjue’s action, many people’s hearts surged with towering waves.

Especially the Divine Master and the geniuses below the Divine Master Realm, completely unexpected, even the peak lord level Ice Divine Grass was no match for Hua Tianjue and was slain so effortlessly by him.

Particularly Hua Tianjue’s entirely opposing methods, flames and icy power, both so terrifying, simply incredible.

Even more frightening is that these methods are evidently not all of Hua Tianjue’s techniques. When Hua Tianjue’s real abilities are unleashed, they might be even more astonishing.

This caused many people to secretly become vigilant.

After all, this level of power, if intent on destroying them, without a life-saving trump card, they could be wiped out instantly like the two treasure guardian demons. They have to be extremely cautious.

At this moment, Ye Chen watching Hua Tianjue’s display of flame and icy powers, felt little disturbance in his heart.

Even though Ye Chen is only at the Immortal Divine Venerable realm, Ye Chen has dealt with Cosmic Emperor Divine Souls before. The profound Change of Devouring Fire and ancient origin ice bead treasures he acquired gave him a clear understanding of the power level Hua Tianjue just demonstrated compared to others.

"The flame power is at the peak lord level. The ice-sealing power has just touched the Cosmic Emperor level."

"Indeed, Hua Tianjue is fearsome, it should be guarded against, but not overly feared."

Ye Chen thought to himself.

If others knew Ye Chen’s thoughts, they would probably curse Ye Chen for being ignorant of heaven and earth.

After all, Ye Chen, a mere Immortal Divine Venerable, stands far apart in power against the peak lord level, reaching the Cosmic Emperor level nature of Hua Tianjue.

Ye Chen daring not to fear Hua Tianjue is simply unimaginable!

But these people don’t know, if outside, without external methods, Ye Chen might truly fear Hua Tianjue.

But in the Primal Beginning Universe, possessing a Cosmic Emperor level life-saving scroll and numerous Cosmic Emperor level treasures available to use, Ye Chen can no longer be looked at as merely an Immortal Divine Venerable!

Even if it is external resources, at least Ye Chen can use them!

At the very least, Ye Chen also has ways to deal with the Cosmic Emperor in his grasp!

During this moment, as everyone harbored their respective thoughts, Hua Tianjue, who slew the second treasure guardian demon, directly gazed toward the second Treasure Cave ahead.

"Let’s go; it’s time to retrieve the second batch of treasures!"

Hua Tianjue leads the way, flying into the second Treasure Cave.

Seeing Hua Tianjue move, the remaining people no longer hesitated, following one after another, flying toward the second Treasure Cave.

Now, their strength is indeed insufficient against Hua Tianjue. In such circumstances, acquiring some treasures is a more crucial matter!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

As everyone flew into the second treasure cave, the scene before them elicited exclamations of awe from many.

In the first treasure cave, the guardian Great Demon was the Fire Serpent, and the treasures were hidden inside sparkling lanterns in the sky.

In this second treasure cave, the guardian Great Demon was the Ice Divine Grass, and the treasures were encased within ice pillars on the ground.

Just like the thousands of treasure lanterns in the first cave, this second cave also housed thousands of treasure ice pillars!

Furthermore.

There was a voice that announced the rules for selecting treasures in this cave.

The voice explained. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

In this second treasure cave, all treasures available for selection are within the ice pillars. Each person only has two chances to enter the ice pillars, and can only take two treasures!

The voice also warned, to everyone’s shock, that the treasures in the second cave were at the lowest, Overlord Level. Most were Overlord Level, with a few at Cosmic Emperor Level, and incredibly, there was even one Star Lord Level treasure!

After the voice finished, even the most powerful Peak Lords present, including Hua Tianjue, showed signs of shock, their eyes filled with madness!

Star Lord Level Treasure!

In this second treasure cave, there was actually a Star Lord Level treasure!

Even though there was only one Star Lord Level treasure, it was an unfathomable existence for the fifteen people present. Not just for them, but even for a Cosmic Emperor or a Star Lord, a Star Lord Level treasure would undeniably be the most precious of treasures!

Star Lord Level, that was already among the most precious treasures in this universe and countless others, including the Cosmic Sea.

How could this not drive everyone mad?!

"There’s only one Star Lord Level treasure, hidden among these thousands of ice pillars!"

Some people were on the verge of losing control, wanting to break through all the ice pillars to seize the most precious Star Lord Level treasure.

However, in an instant, they calmed down.

The people present, who had survived to this point, were extremely calm and brilliant talents. Even though the Star Lord Level treasure drove them mad, they knew they absolutely could not violate the rules of the Chaotic Heavenly Hall.

After all, in just the third stratum, there was already a Star Lord Level treasure here, which absolutely indicated that the creator of the Chaotic Heavenly Hall was a figure of Star Lord Level!

Such a significant figure’s rules and commands, who would dare to defy them?

If they truly defied them, it wouldn’t just be about breaking through ice pillars to seize the treasure; they’d probably die in the Chaotic Heavenly Hall the moment they violated the rule.

These brilliant talents dared not take the risk!

"It all depends on luck now, to see if we can select the Star Lord Level treasure from these thousands," many thought to themselves.

However, what surprised everyone was Hua Tianjue’s direct address to them.

"I was the one who slew the Ice Divine Grass to let you all enter this stage."

"To be fair in selecting treasures like in the first cave? I think that’s not fair to me or the other Peak Lords."

"After all, we’ve exerted so much effort, and if the Star Lord Level treasure were seized by others, I wouldn’t accept that outcome!"

"Friend Hongjue, Friend Yuan Qingzi, what do you think?"

Hua Tianjue’s gaze turned cold as he looked at the Divine Masters and talents below the Divine Master Realm.

The Overlord Hongjue from Linglong Divine Land was stunned for a moment, but then his eyes shimmered, looking at the lower realm Divine Masters and talents: "Hua is right. If a Star Lord Level treasure appears, it should be contended at least among us Peak Lords. Others aren’t qualified."

Yuan Qingzi furrowed his brows, looking at Hua Tianjue, voicing his thoughts: "So, what does Friend Hua propose?"

Hua Tianjue, unaffected by the Divine Masters and talents below the Divine Master Realm, declared, "It’s simple. We’ve all ventured into the Chaotic Heavenly Hall together, so it’s not like I’m denying you a chance. Treasure selection can follow the order like in the first cave. However, those below the Overlord Realm must open their storage space for us to inspect if they obtained a Star Lord Level treasure. If so, they must hand it over!"

"Indeed, it should be this way!" Overlord Hongjue, without hesitation, supported after Hua Tianjue’s words. "Not just Star Lord Level treasures; even if the Cosmic Emperor Level treasure is obtained by those below the Overlord, I think it should be handed over!"

"Yes, Cosmic Emperor Level treasures should also be taken by us rulers first!" Another Peak Lord from Primordial God Mountain, Situ Chen, also stepped forward.

"I agree as well!" Another Peak Lord from Linglong Divine Land, Hongyu, voiced her agreement.

Under the lure of treasures, the most powerful Peak Lords banded together to suppress Divine Masters and talents below the Divine Master Realm.

Even Yuan Qingzi, after a moment of hesitation, sided with Hua Tianjue, Hongjue, Situ Chen, Hongyu, and others against Ye Chen and the others.

Upon hearing that they must open their storage space for the Peak Lords to inspect, the Divine Masters and talents below the Divine Master Realm turned pale.

The storage space was the most precious and secretive place. Exposing it meant all secrets would be laid bare to these rulers, which the Divine Masters and talents below their level could not accept.

A Ninefold Divine Master immediately jumped out to oppose: "I have no objection to the seniors selecting treasures first, but don’t you think inspecting our storage space is overly tyrannical?"

This Ninefold Divine Master came from the first great power, Primordial God Mountain, and was named Ao Ning.

No one expected that the request proposed by Hua Tianjue, leader of Primordial God Mountain, would be first opposed by a Divine Master from Primordial God Mountain!

This Ninefold Divine Master, whether extraordinarily powerful or exceptionally daring, showed no fear facing the united pressure of several Peak Lords in the field!
