Chapter 344 - Collector Of Wandering Treasures
Su Bai looked around Kunlun Ruins and decided not to run around.
It was hard to place his finger on it, but the place was a little eerie, with few monsters and an extremely quiet atmosphere.
There were too many unknown variables; most of the things and existences here had attributes that had not been seen by the outside. Not only were there mysterious, peculiar, and extremely rare monsters here, there were also some things very similar to the strange mists.
"This thing will be useful here."
He took out an egg.
"This is the seeker of lost treasures that I gave you last time. Are you going to use it to find the teleporting pet?"
Chen Ruoxue was a little surprised to see that Su Bai had not used the egg yet.
"Yes, I've been saving it for now."
With a movement of his mind, a drop of blood fell on the egg. Red lines appeared on the egg's shell before it shattered, revealing a cicada entwined with a gray aura.
Su Bai looked at it carefully to check the cicada's information!
[Lost Treasure Seeker: It comes from an infinite and mysterious world with a specific set of rules. One needs to sacrifice a treasure to let it help them.]
"I want to find the legendary tabby cat, the collector of wandering treasures," Su Bai said calmly.
A message then entered his mind: You need to sacrifice three, whole live void worlds.
Su Bai: "…"
"What's wrong?" Chen Ruoxue showed a trace of doubt.
"This wants me to sacrifice three void worlds," he said, pointing to the thing in his hand.
Chen Ruoxue could not help being surprised. "This… It seems like the thing you're looking for is too precious."
Then what should we do now? We can't just run around in search, right?
The elf looked at the cicada in Su Bai's hand and wanted to give the thing some deterrence, but it did not move at all.
Huh? I can't see through its trajectory of fate. The elf showed a hint of shock.
Su Bai grabbed the elf's waist and put it on his shoulder, looking at the cicada in his hand. He thought for a while, opened his storage ring, and took out a small transparent crystal.
Seeing Su Bai's transparent crystal, the gray cicada trembled suddenly, flew over, and sucked it clean. Even the cryptic mist hidden inside it could not escape.
After everything was done, it flew up and pointed in a direction.
Su Bai was a little shocked. This thing was not afraid of the mist? It could even eat it?
Since it had come from a mysterious world, did any existence of that mysterious world have this ability?
For a time, Su Bai had a hundred thousand questions in his heart!
"Is this the origin of the Time Dragon you said?" Chen Ruoxue widened her eyes.
"Yes, I didn't expect that it would be so useful. It's the most precious thing on my person, so I thought I'd just give it a try. I really didn't expect it to be successful." He shrugged in surprise.
Still, it made sense when he thought about it. Time Dragon's origin had the last luck of the Time Clan, which guarded the long river of time that was an eternal existence. Their little luck might be worth a lot of lives in the world.
"Howl." Ah Bai, it's waiting for us; hurry up and go! Little Tyrant pointed to the gray cicada hovering in the air and said.
"Okay."
Su Bai nodded and let Planet Eye activate its invisible spiritual breath before using his Water Card skill to use the Dark Diving characteristic of Starry Omnivore Kraken, which was still kept in his contract book. With these, they were completely hidden.
This was to prevent them from being spotted by the target, which could inadvertently put it on guard.
"Oh, my God! Look over there. Is that place already invaded by the mist?" Chen Ruoxue pointed to the place below, surprised.
They were crossing a huge mountain range at this time, where a pale green lake was on the top. It was fine at first, but after a few seconds, a sound of vibration spread, and then a cloud of gray and red filled the lake.
In the crevices of the surrounding mountains, the same strange mist could be seen.
Su Bai's face changed slightly when he saw this situation. There was so much stray mist hidden in this place. It seemed like they had completely occupied this place, and someone had disturbed them just now.
"This place isn't suitable for a long stay; we shall leave as soon as we're done." He instructed Planet Eye to speed up.
However, in his heart he could not help but think of Master Zhang Lu and the others, who had come in long ago. Could it be that they had made the movement?
After crossing the huge black mountain range, they continued to advance toward the edge area. They flew a full hundreds of thousands of kilometers and finally arrived at their destination.
The gray cicada stopped and disappeared after turning around Su Bai.
"Howl!" Look over there! the elf pointed to a vertical waterfall and said.
The couple looked up at the super waterfall with a drop of more than one kilometer. A school of golden fish leaped continuously from the pool below the waterfall, only to struggle upstream.
Although these fishe all had spiritual power, they were below the servant grade. The thousand-meter-level waterfall was a great moat for them, and it was almost impossible for them to swim upstream.
However, the fish still flicked their tails tirelessly to rush upward, falling down and repeating the process. This cycle went never-endingly, as if all the fish had vowed never to stop until their goal was achieved!
Finally, a golden fish tried its best to go upstream and finally succeeded.
"Meow~"
However, just when it thought it would be in heaven, a fluffy claw suddenly stretched out. The sharp claw pierced its body before a chubby head stretched out, wheezing and gobbling it up.
This was a golden tabby cat, which looked very similar to the protagonist Garfield in a famous cartoon show.
After eating this golden koi, a golden light melted into its body. It then yawned and lazily lay on a bluestone next to the waterfall to doze, seeming to be waiting again.
"Roar!" That guy is too wicked; the fish worked so hard and finally managed to swim up. It thought it would reach heaven but ended up in a cat's stomach, instead!
Still, I like this trick; it's very beautifully done! Little Tyrant patted its claw and exclaimed.
Su Bai: "…"
"Haha! Maybe we're all this fish. When we reach the end, we'll be eaten by some unknown entity. Don't be happy too early, Tyrant." Chen Ruoxue laughed and patted its head.
"Roar." Even if that's the case, I can definitely be the fish that slips through the net, said the dino proudly.
"Howl." Ah Bai, this waterfall and the goldfish aren't ordinary. If you share your perception with me, you'll understand. Purple Jade looked at the waterfall in the distance and told him this.
He nodded and immediately shared the elf's perception.
Then he discovered that there was something in the waterfall. As long as the goldfish kept going upstream, their trajectory of fate would change to gold.
The fate track of the fish, which climbed up just then completely turned golden, but it was eaten by that orange cat. I saw that guy's trajectory of fate, and it was of endless wealth.. It should be what you said; it should indeed be the collector of wandering treasures, the elf said telepathically.
