Li Yu didn't waste any time. After the servants had arranged the rare treasures, he was the first to step forward.

"Sir, if you'd like to participate, you'll need to pay an entrance fee of 50 contribution points. Is that alright?"

"It's alright." Li Yu waved his hand and turned away.

This small gambling den at Drunken Immortal Pavilion was quite famous in the game in its previous life. It's considered a small early-game gift for players, giving them contribution points. The first nine rare items are fixed; you just need to remember the method.

The last one, however, has remained unsolved by players and has been a hot topic of discussion on forums.

Some speculate that this last treasure must be related to a world-class event. Perhaps it's an Easter egg hidden in the game's prehistoric setting.

Li Yu came to Zuixianlou this time partly to get contribution points to recover his losses. The other part was to see if there was any potential hidden surprise in this ancient world.

After talking with Wang Ming in the secret realm, he has now become interested in everything about the primordial world. The game's background doesn't describe that era of countless gods and Buddhas in great detail; rather, it subtly foreshadows many things through some side quests.

When Li Yu entered, he recognized the first nine rare treasures that were exactly the same as those in the game, and solving them would be no problem for him.

As for the last unsolved mystery treasure, something inside Li Yu's Qiankun bag reacted when he looked at it.

It was the key to the Xuanbo Sect obtained from the secret realm.

"This last extraordinary treasure is actually related to the Xuanbo Sect!"

Li Yu had come here hoping to try his luck, but he never expected to be so lucky.

"It seems that Wang Ming's long-cherished wish in the Xuanbo Sect is indeed a prerequisite for this last rare treasure."

On the second-floor stands, Wang Bozhou frowned. Li Yu's performance was far too confident, making him wonder if this person had come prepared.

However, upon further reflection, he realized that no one had ever solved the mystery of the tenth treasure, so he felt relieved.

Meanwhile, Li Yu had already obtained his first extraordinary treasure.

A young woman in a light blue gauze dress explained to the crowd, "This item was obtained from a cultivator at the second realm, originating from a secret realm deep within Yunxi..."

Click.

Before the girl could finish her introduction, Li Yu had already unlocked the first rare treasure.

Inside was a fist-sized source stone, which, due to the changes in the natural order, could no longer be formed. If this source stone still possessed spiritual power, even powerful cultivators would fight over it. Unfortunately, this piece had long since dried up. Clearly, it had not withstood the erosion of time.

Li Yu casually placed the first treasure aside and turned to unravel the second one.

"Sir, this..."

The hostess was surprised that Li Yu had unlocked the treasure in just a few breaths.

In the stands, Wang Bozhou's expression was grim: "That guy's got pretty good luck. He actually bumped into something..."

Before he could finish speaking, the second rare treasure in Li Yu's hand vibrated with spiritual energy and was instantly deactivated.

Only after the two extraordinary treasures were unraveled so quickly did the onlookers put down their wine cups.

Someone remarked, "This person solved it so quickly? Could it really be possible that they can unlock the final treasure and see Miss Lingyin's true face?"

"It's not that simple. That last treasure has never been unlocked before. However, this person certainly came prepared; he's probably a genius disciple from some nearby immortal sect."

The rewards for this treasure-hunting quest are quite generous; several thousand contribution points are enough to equal an inner sect steward's savings over several years. It's not uncommon for disciples from nearby areas to come and try their luck.

But how difficult are the mysteries of the primordial world? Most people can't even recoup their entrance fee. Over time, fewer and fewer people are willing to take on the challenge. Everyone thinks it's just a way for businesses to make money.

Li Yu is different.

Using his memories from his previous life, he has already unlocked five rare treasures.

He didn't bother to hide his abilities for this task. He had been here before in his previous life, unlocking the ninth treasure and receiving 1500 contribution points without anything happening.

Later, some greedy rogue cultivators coveted his reward and tried to rob him in the streets. However, he had already anticipated this problem, which was why he brought Qiu Xu along.

He knew that Qiu Xu was being so polite to him mainly because of Qin Shengnu's reputation. But why not take advantage of this situation?

The reactions of those present to Li Yu's swift passage varied.

Qiu Xu looked at Li Yu in surprise, marveling at her.

Wang Bozhou gritted his teeth and secretly sent people to find out about Li Yu's background.

The girls at Zuixianlou were too exhausted to introduce the treasures to everyone present. They stared wide-eyed as Li Yu casually unpacked each and every one of the exotic artifacts.

"Sir, you have already unlocked five items and can receive a reward of 500 contribution points. Would you like to continue? If you fail the next challenge, you will lose all the rewards."

"Oh." Li Yu ignored him and continued with the treasure-hunting activity.

The sixth item, the seventh item, the eighth item, and the ninth item.

These things posed no difficulty for him, who had traveled from another time.

Li Yu only slowed down when he encountered the last rare treasure.

Seeing this, the onlookers breathed a sigh of relief. The fact that nine extraordinary treasures had been unearthed in succession had deeply shocked them. Although most of these people were only cultivators at the first level, they had often been to the Drunken Immortal Pavilion and had seen many grand scenes and heard many secrets.

But there has never been a person like Li Yu.

If Li Yu were to use that indomitable spirit to unravel the last treasure at this moment, it would truly be a fantastical tale.

At this moment, Li Yu was already standing in front of the last rare treasure.

This is a bronze box that looks very much like a snake's head, about the size of a human head. Each side is engraved with something, but it is blurred and unclear due to its age.

Li Yu had already secretly grasped the key to the Xuanbo Sect in his hand and examined every part of the box. However, nothing happened.

"What's going on?" Li Yu frowned.

The key was so active just now, trying to get close to the box. But now it's completely still.

"Linglong, can you help me see if there's anything I haven't considered?"

Okay.

"Analyzing related events: Xuanbo Sect Secret Realm, potentially related elements: Array Dao, Death Gate, Primordial Chaos, Key..."

After a few breaths, Linglong said, "Perhaps it's related to the wear and tear on the carvings on this box. Xuanbo Sect started out by using formations, so if this box is really related to Xuanbo Sect, then the patterns on it might be some kind of unknown formation."

Li Yu asked, "Is there a way to restore it?"

Linglong: "If there is enough relevant information, it is possible to repair it to some extent."

"But where am I supposed to find the relevant stuff for you now? I don't have any ancient artifacts on hand."

……

Oh no, maybe there really is one.
