Swallowing the Stars: Time Simulation

Chapter 370 Exchanging Treasures

The Ancestral God Cult is a treasure trove.

Yang Wu was alone in a secluded valley, while King Chaman had already left.

After all, Yang Wu is currently at the center of the vortex, so it is indeed not advisable for him to act together with other powerful figures who have been granted the title of King.

Just then, a figure dressed in a simple black robe suddenly appeared out of thin air in front of Yang Wu. It was none other than Venerable Jiufeng, a candidate general of the Ancestral God Sect and the strongest member of the werewolf clan.

"Divine King!" Venerable Jiufeng called out softly.

Upon seeing the Divine Might King again, Venerable Jiufeng finally understood his previous doubts.

He was initially surprised that the mysterious King Shenwei was able to obtain the Beast God's Inheritance Token, but after learning Yang Wu's true identity, he completely understood.

If even a peerless genius like Yang Wu cannot obtain the Beast God Inheritance Token, then who among the human race can?

Right after Yang Wu's identity was exposed, Venerable Jiufeng received an email from the clan's Universe Lord, instructing him to protect Yang Wu for a period of time.

However, Venerable Jiufeng was exploring a secret realm at the time and could not come immediately.

The human race's leadership had already decided to replace Yang Wu with a stronger individual, but Venerable Jiufeng volunteered to take on the task himself.

After all, given Yang Wu's current talent, he has a very good chance of becoming the master of the universe in the future.

By protecting the other person for a period of time, he can easily establish a good relationship, which may be helpful to him in the future.

"I'll have to trouble you now, Venerable Jiufeng!" Yang Wu said politely, bowing slightly.

Venerable Jiufeng's strength is enough to rank him among the top fifty in the human race. With such a powerful figure protecting him, his safety within the Ancestral God Sect is guaranteed.

"Haha, it's nothing!" Venerable Jiufeng said with a smile. "It's something to celebrate that our human race has produced a peerless genius like Divine Might King. What's a little protection from me for a while?"

"However, it seems those alien races are already prepared. Divine King, what are your plans next?" Venerable Jiufeng continued to ask.

After hearing Venerable Jiufeng's words, Yang Wu felt very calm.

After all, with his identity exposed, the talent he has shown is even more amazing than Luo Feng, who earned the title of King of the Knife River in the original work. It is likely that the alien race will not allow him to continue to grow.

However, with the existence of his clones and the presence of the Flame God Clan clones lurking in the shadows, the probability of him encountering a crisis of annihilation is still very low.

Furthermore, there are time simulators available to mitigate risks!

Yang Wu's only worry was that he would perish too quickly in the simulation, causing the simulation time to be shortened.

"Venerable Jiufeng!" Yang Wu replied earnestly, "Next, I plan to go to the palace of the Guardian Beast God, the Lord of the Dark Serpent, to exchange the treasures I have obtained for some valuable items!"

Long before leaving the temple of the Dragon Lord, Yang Wu had already used the virtual universe system to appraise the value of the top-tier treasure, the Silver Serpent Sword.

The final result was that the Silver Serpent Sword was nothing special, but it was considered a rare and excellent weapon among top-tier treasures. If it were directly contributed to the clan, it would probably earn 120 treasure points.

Since the Silver Serpent Sword had nothing special about it, Yang Wu could naturally exchange it for the Lord of the Dark Serpent.

Moreover, the Lord of the Dark Serpent is under the command of the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds within the Ancestral God Sect, so he could help him contact the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds.

With the help of the Dark Serpent Lord, the creation of the next two clones would naturally be much simpler.

"Treasure!" Venerable Jiufeng was slightly taken aback.

Yes, the incredibly talented Divine Might King before him had just obtained the most precious treasure from the treasure trove.

"Just 108 treasures are comparable to supreme treasures! The value of the first treasure must be comparable to a top-tier supreme treasure!" Venerable Jiufeng thought with great envy.

The Divine King before him had already amassed more wealth this time than he had ever possessed in his entire fortune.

After all, the most precious treasure Venerable Jiufeng possessed was merely a high-grade weapon. He had accumulated his wealth over a long period to exchange for it from his clan.

But this Divine King, after only one trip to the treasure trove, obtained treasures far more astonishing than all his wealth combined.

However, despite his envy, Venerable Jiufeng continued, "In that case, Divine Might King, why don't you stay in my world ring and reveal yourself when I arrive at the Dark Serpent Lord's temple!"

Venerable Jiufeng suggested, "This way, those damned alien races will be even less aware of your situation!"

"That's exactly right!" Yang Wu nodded in agreement.

As long as he doesn't reveal his whereabouts, the subsequent operation will be much safer.

"Let's not delay, let's set off now!" Venerable Jiufeng then took out a world ring and said.

"Okay!" Yang Wu nodded, then disappeared and entered the world ring on Venerable Jiufeng's hand.

……

Deep within the Five-Colored Aurora Lake, dozens of majestic temples stand.

Besides the Ancestral God Palace and the Eight Directions Beast God Temple at the very core, there are also Guardian Beast God Temples around it, which also exude an astonishing aura.

Inside one of the guardian beast god temples, the Dark Serpent Lord sat cross-legged on his throne, his mind filled with countless thoughts.

"I wonder if that human will exchange the Silver Serpent Sword for me?"

"In all my years of cultivation, I have never had any conflict with the human race. Given their strength, they probably wouldn't care too much about a top-tier treasure, right?"

The Lord of the Dark Serpent kept planning in his mind: "At worst, I'll spend more resources; I must get my hands on that Silver Serpent Sword!"

"Jiufeng, requesting an audience with the Lord of the Dark Serpent!" Just then, a voice suddenly came from outside the hall.

"Venerable Jiufeng? What is he doing here?" The Lord of Dark Serpent was slightly taken aback.

As one of the candidates for divine generals, Venerable Jiufeng was naturally an outer member of the Ancestral God Sect, but he was not under his command.

"However, Venerable Jiufeng is also of human origin, could he be that human genius...?"

The Lord of the Dark Serpent's heart stirred slightly, and he immediately said, "Come in!"

A space-time continuum within the Dark Serpent Temple suddenly opened, and Venerable Jiufeng, who had been waiting outside, quickly flew in.

"Greetings, Lord of the Dark Serpent!" Venerable Jiufeng appeared in the hall as a streak of light, bowing slightly as he looked at the majestic figure on the throne.

"Venerable Jiufeng, what brings you here?" the Lord of the Dark Serpent asked immediately.

"Lord of the Dark Serpent, I have come here to deliver the Divine Might King!" Venerable Jiufeng replied respectfully.

Before coming here, Yang Wu had already told Venerable Jiufeng about the agreement between himself and the Lord of the Dark Serpent; otherwise, Venerable Jiufeng would not have brought Yang Wu here rashly.

"Oh?" A hint of joy flashed across the Dark Serpent Lord's face, and he immediately asked, "Where is the Divine Might King?"

hum!

With a thought, Venerable Jiufeng summoned Yang Wu, who was hiding inside the World Ring, into the main hall.

"Greetings, Lord of the Dark Serpent!" Yang Wu bowed slightly to the Lord of the Dark Serpent as he appeared in the main hall.

"Human, you have made the right choice!" The Lord of the Dark Serpent looked down at Yang Wu and said with a smile.

For other powerful individuals, the Silver Serpent Sword might just be an ordinary weapon, but for the Lord of the Dark Serpent, it could significantly boost his strength in a short period of time.

Therefore, the Lord of the Dark Serpent was naturally quite pleased that Yang Wu was willing to exchange the Silver Serpent Sword with him.

The Lord of the Dark Serpent rose from his throne and descended the steps, his figure rapidly shrinking until he was almost the same size as Yang Wu.

Upon reaching Yang Wu, the Lord of the Dark Serpent waved his hand, unfurling a massive screen in mid-air.

"Divine King, here are the many treasures I possess. What do you wish to exchange them for?"

The Lord of the Dark Serpent smiled and said, "Even if you desire other treasures, I will do my best to exchange them for you!"

Seeing the incredibly valuable treasures on the screen, Venerable Jiufeng looked on with envy, even wishing he could replace Yang Wu.

Yang Wu also looked at the screen.

The screen displayed various treasures, including rare and precious items, as well as all sorts of valuable materials.

If any one of these items were released, it would likely attract countless powerful individuals to fight over it.

"Of course!" the Lord of the Dark Serpent continued, "Even if all these treasures were added together, they probably wouldn't compare to the Silver Serpent Sword!"

"Therefore, I've also prepared this treasure for you!"

With a gentle sweep of its tail, the Lord of the Dark Serpent summoned a white longsword radiating a sharp aura that floated before him. The sword was inscribed with incredibly complex runes, and its natural aura resonated throughout the entire hall.

"A supreme treasure!"

"This longsword's aura is far more powerful than my weapon; it's definitely a top-tier treasure!"

Venerable Jiufeng was extremely shocked.

My God, just how many precious treasures did the Divine King obtain in the treasure land that he was able to exchange for so many treasures?

As for Yang Wu, he remained somewhat silent.

While browsing the treasures on the screen, he had already checked the relevant information about those treasures through the virtual universe system. Although there were many kinds, all of them together were only worth 20 treasure points.

The treasured longsword before him was the weapon of the Dark Serpent Lord, and it was also a top-tier treasure. However, in terms of value, it was far inferior to the Silver Serpent Sword. If Yang Wu were to contribute it to his clan, he would at most receive 90 treasure points.

All these treasures combined amount to only 110 Treasure Points, which is even less than the Silver Serpent Sword.

"It seems that even the supreme ruler of the universe doesn't have that many resources!" Yang Wu thought to himself.

Especially considering that even the Lord of the Dark Serpent, backed by the Ancestral God Cult, doesn't have abundant resources, one can only imagine how little resources the leaders of other powerful races in the universe possess.

……

Seeing Yang Wu remain silent, the Lord of the Dark Serpent sighed inwardly.

If he hadn't just exchanged for a top-tier treasure armor within the Ancestral God Sect hundreds of thousands of epochs ago, he wouldn't be in such dire straits.

Of course, although he didn't have enough resources to exchange for the Silver Serpent Sword, the Lord of the Dark Serpent still decided to give it a try.

After all, this Divine Might King is only a realm lord, and his vision is definitely limited. If he could directly exchange for the Silver Serpent Sword, he could also save some resources.

But seeing Yang Wu remain silent, the Lord of Dark Serpents knew that his plans had fallen through.

Clearly, the Divine Might King before him already understood the value of the Silver Serpent Sword and the other treasures he had brought out.

Thinking of this, the Lord of the Dark Serpent continued, "Also, if you're willing to exchange that Silver Serpent Sword for mine, I'll owe you a favor!"

"A favor?" Yang Wu's heart stirred slightly.

He was just wondering how to tell the Lord of the Dark Serpent about his desire to see the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds when this unexpected opportunity came to him.

"Lord of the Dark Serpent, I have a request!" Yang Wu immediately transmitted his voice.

Upon receiving Yang Wu's telepathic message, the Lord of the Dark Serpent glanced at Venerable Jiufeng, slightly surprised, but still waved his hand, directly creating an independent space between himself and Yang Wu.

"Divine Might King, I have blocked Venerable Jiufeng; he can no longer hear our conversation!"

The Lord of the Dark Serpent smiled and said, "If you have anything to ask of me, just say it!"

He wasn't afraid of Yang Wu begging him; he was afraid that Yang Wu would give up the idea of ​​exchanging the Silver Serpent Sword.

Yang Wu also glanced at Venerable Jiufeng. He had sent a telepathic message to the Lord of Dark Serpent precisely to keep it a secret.

After all, what he was about to say involved both his own clone and the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds, so naturally the fewer people who knew about it, the better.

"Thank you, Lord of the Dark Serpent!" Yang Wu continued, "I wish to request an audience with the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds!"

"The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds?" The Lord of the Dark Serpent was surprised.

The Lord of the Nine Netherworlds is one of the guardian deities of the Ancestral God Sect, and his strength ranks among the top in the entire universe. The Lord of the Dark Serpent truly had no idea where this human, who was only at the World Lord level, could possibly have any connection with the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds.

However, this was a small matter for him.

After all, the Lord of Dark Serpent was one of the guardian deities under the Lord of Nine Netherworlds, so bringing people to see him was indeed a trivial matter.

"This matter is very simple!" the Lord of the Dark Serpent said calmly. "Divine Might King, I can take you to see the Lord of the Nine Netherworlds later!"

"Thank you, Lord Dark Serpent!" Yang Wu said respectfully. Then, with a thought, the Silver Serpent Sword he had obtained from the treasure trove appeared in mid-air.

"This is the first treasure I obtained from the treasure land: the Silver Serpent Sword!"

"The Silver Serpent Sword!"

Seeing the Silver Serpent Sword radiating a powerful aura in mid-air, the Lord of the Dark Serpent was quite excited.

After learning about the Silver Serpent Sword from the Two-Faced Ancestral God, he had been hoping that someone would be able to unlock this first treasure.

But countless years have passed, and not a single inheritor of the Beast God's legacy has been able to achieve this.

Just when the Lord of the Dark Serpent was about to give up and was preparing to accumulate resources to exchange for a supreme treasure in the future, he suddenly found a way out and successfully obtained the Silver Serpent Sword in front of him.

"Hahaha!" The Lord of the Dark Serpent laughed, handing over his previous top-tier treasure weapon and a world ring to Yang Wu, saying, "Now, they are yours!"

This one wasn't written very well; I don't know how to reasonably lead into the following plot. I'll revise it again tomorrow.
