The Lord's Empire

After gaining this pupil, Zhao Fu also gained powerful illusion abilities, causing him to smile. He had personally experienced this terrifying illusion before, and he knew how monstrous it was.

Moreover, Zhao Fu obtained some information about this illusion – it was called the Sovereign Illusion Realm and was a very rare illusion technique.

Adding on Zhao Fu’s Divine Bloodline and the other terrifying powers he had, the illusion he could cast would be incredibly terrifying, far superior to what the monster had cast.

Zhao Fu got up from the ground and looked around because the monster had mentioned treasures.

A while later, Zhao Fu found a large cave, which had traces of being frequently visited. This was most likely the monster’s lair, and Zhao Fu warily walked in and found all kinds of treasures piled up.

There were countless gold coins, silver coins, and precious gems. There were also equipment and items, and Zhao Fu collected them all into his spatial ring, after which he opened up a pure silver treasure box.

This treasure box was hidden in the darkness and most likely contained something incredibly precious, and Zhao Fu felt quite expectant.

After opening the treasure box, boundless silver light shot out and a Dragon made of pure silver appeared in front of Zhao Fu.

This Dragon was completely silver-colored, and its horns were incredibly sharp. It had a pair of black, gemstone-like eyes and wide, silver wings. It also had a pair of sharp claws, each of which had six toes, as well as a long dragon’s tail.

The Dragon was in fact an incredibly lifelike statue that spiraled in the air, and what made Zhao Fu incredibly delighted was that this statue was actually a Den. What’s more, it was the Den of an incredibly rare dragon species that could spawn Stage 8 dragons called Splendor Night Silver Dragons.

This type of Dragon was of the Darkness attribute and Metal attribute, and they were more powerful than ordinary Stage 8 Dragons. Zhao Fu had obtained an incredibly precious treasure this time.

Dragon Dens were incredibly rare, and Great Qin had only created a Wyvern Den by using a Universal Den. Those Wyverns were only Stage 5 and were a low-grade species of Dragons.

These Splendor Night Silver Dragons were a top-tier species and had Stage 5 strength right after being born.

However, because the Splendor Night Silver Dragons were so powerful, the amount of time it took to spawn them was quite long – the Den could only spawn two every month, which was 24 in one year.

Zhao Fu felt that this was acceptable. After all, back then the Wyvern Den could only spawn a Wyvern every five or six days, but now it could spawn five or six per day. Now, Great Qin had tens of thousands of Wyverns.

Zhao Fu had confidence that he would be able to raise a great number of these Splendor Night Silver Dragons in the future. An army of Stage 8 Dragons would be of immense help to Great Qin and give them a great advantage.

Zhao Fu happily put the Den away and left the cave. Just obtaining this Dragon Den made everything worth it.

After leaving the cave, Zhao Fu continued onwards. This was still the inner regions of the danger zone and not the depths, and perhaps there would be even more valuable things deeper in.

Zhao Fu headed onwards and soon reached the depths. He was quite surprised to find that there were still thorny vines everywhere that obscured his line of vision.

However, these thorny vines were different from the ones outside. The ones here were a dark red color, while the ones outside were green. Moreover, the thorns on these vines were even tougher and sharper, which gave off cold glints.

Zhao Fu took out the Emperor Killing Sword and slashed out sword lights. Even though these thorny vines were incredibly tough, they posed no resistance in front of Zhao Fu’s incredibly sharp Emperor Killing Sword.

At the same time, Zhao Fu became wary. Since the thorny vines outside had consciousness, these thorny vines most likely did as well.

Just as expected, as Zhao Fu advanced, the thorny vines started to move. However, this was not to attack Zhao Fu but to defend.

The countless vines continuously gathered, forming into a red wall that was hundreds of meters tall. Countless thorny vines criss-crossed without leaving any space, and the wall gave off a shockingly powerful aura.

Zhao Fu coldly laughed and sent large amounts of power into the Emperor Killing Sword as he lightly cried out, “Sword Master!”

Shing!

Zhao Fu slashed out a massive black sword light that slammed into the wall of thorny vines with terrifying power. The wall was directly spit in half, and countless segmented parts of thorny vines fell like rain.

However, the remaining vines quickly moved and once again formed a massive wall, blocking in front of Zhao Fu. Zhao Fu once again slashed out, slashing the wall in half.

This repeated three or four times, after which an ancient voice sounded out, “Sir, I don’t want to become your enemy. Please spare me this time!”

Zhao Fu felt quite startled and did not expect that the most terrifying monster in the danger zone would try to settle things amicably. However, Zhao Fu did not stop; after all, he could not just leave because of one sentence from the monster. It had taken him great effort to reach this place.

However, Zhao Fu’s aim in coming here was to obtain benefits, so if he could obtain great benefits without expending too much effort, that would naturally be best.

Zhao Fu thought about it and replied, “I can spare you, but you should understand my purpose in coming here. If you give me enough benefits, I’ll immediately leave.”

A thick vine stretched out, on which hung a red fruit that looked like a tomato. It was oval-shaped and was quite smooth, and it gave off a powerful spirit energy and seemed to be a valuable spirit fruit.

The ancient voice once again sounded out, “Sir, I know you have a Divine Bloodline. Even though it gives incredible power, it makes it more difficult for your cultivation to break through than ordinary people. This Thorn Fruit can help your cultivation break through to the Harmony Realm.”

Hearing this, Zhao Fu smiled and took the Thorn Fruit. He examined it and found that there was nothing wrong with it, so he put it away and asked, “Do you have anything else of value?”

The ancient voice once again spoke, sounding quite troubled, “Sir, I don’t have anything else; the Thorn Fruit was my most valuable item. Please understand and leave.”

Zhao Fu definitely did not believe that it did not have anything of value, so he said coldly, “I said that if you gave me enough benefits, I would spare you. Since you’re not willing, don’t blame me.”

After saying this, Zhao Fu sent large amounts of power into the Emperor Killing Sword and an intense sword intent spread out.

The ancient voice hurriedly said, “Please don’t, sir. If you don’t believe me, you can come in and have a look yourself!”

The thorny vines made way, opening up a two meter wide path, and Zhao Fu followed this path into the depths.
