Chapter 609: Chapter 570: Emptying the Treasury (Part 2)

A look of confusion appeared in his eyes.

He had never seen or even heard of such a thing.

For a moment, he didn’t even know what treasure to use against this strange cloud.

Seeing that the glow of his Defensive Demigod Artifact was about to be devoured by the strange gray cloud, the Jade Prince hastily threw out a Holy Artifact from the Light Divine Sect.

It was a golden Holy Grail of Light, a Holy Artifact the Light Divine Sect used to transform ordinary spring water into Holy Water.

The Jade Prince had hoped that drinking Holy Water over a long period could extend his lifespan.

So, he had pulled some strings and spent a small fortune to buy a Holy Grail of Light from the Pope.

A Holy Artifact like the Holy Grail of Light sounded incredibly rare, as if it were one of a kind.

In reality, while they were indeed creations of Divine Power, the Light Divine Sect could obtain as many Holy Grails of Light as they wanted, so long as they prayed to the Light God.

Since the Jade Prince was willing to pay a high price for a Holy Grail of Light, the Pope of the Light Divine Sect was naturally willing to sell him one.

It was also a way of selling him a favor.

The Jade Prince tossed the Holy Grail of Light into the strange gray cloud.

The Light Divine Power within the Holy Grail of Light, stimulated by the Law of Death, was instantly activated.

It erupted in a blindingly sacred radiance.

The Law of Light manifested.

The two Powers of Laws clashed, tearing apart the Feather of the God of Death that had been entangling the Jade Prince.

The Jade Prince quickly escaped the range of the Feather of the God of Death, taking his dimmed Defensive Demigod Artifact with him.

BOOM!

After a brief stalemate, the Feather of the God of Death and the Holy Grail of Light violently exploded.

The Feather of the God of Death dissipated. The tattered feather within the cloud slowly fell, turning into specks of light that gradually vanished into the air.

The Holy Grail of Light also lost its brilliance and fell limply from the sky.

It landed in the dirt, becoming utterly inconspicuous.

Seeing that the Holy Grail of Light had dealt with the Feather of the God of Death, the Jade Prince finally breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he no longer dared to underestimate the Legendary Witch Lich who had ambushed him.

’This Legendary Witch Lich really has some tricks up his sleeve. To think he could get his hands on such a bizarre item.’

Just as the Jade Prince was about to pull out his ultimate weapon to obliterate everything here, a horrifying sensation suddenly shot through his heart, making the hair on his body stand on end.

He immediately poured all his Power into his Defensive Demigod Artifact, pushing its might to the absolute limit.

A black ray of light shot out from the gray mist, silently striking the Jade Prince in the back.

The black light was blocked for a moment by the three-colored radiance of the Defensive Demigod Artifact.

Then, both the tri-colored light and the black ray vanished simultaneously.

A CRACK echoed in the Jade Prince’s ear. He looked down and saw that the Defensive Demigod Artifact on him had shattered.

His expression turned grim.

The Legendary Witch Lich lowered his Magic Staff, his face impassive.

The black ray just now was a Forbidden Curse he had cast—Death Finger.

The Forbidden Curse, Death Finger, was known as the strongest single-target Forbidden Curse.

Even a Demigod Level expert would be killed in one hit if struck by it.

The Jade Prince’s Defensive Demigod Artifact had blocked the fatal blow for him.

As a result, the Defensive Demigod Artifact was completely destroyed.

If the Defensive Demigod Artifact had been at its peak, it might have been able to withstand Death Finger without being completely destroyed.

But the Legendary Witch Lich had timed his attack perfectly, striking when the Defensive Demigod Artifact was at its most Fragile, after most of its power had been consumed by the Feather of the God of Death.

He had successfully destroyed the Jade Prince’s Defensive Demigod Artifact.

An inescapable trap.

His Defensive Demigod Artifact was broken.

The Jade Prince was finally in a crisis, no longer able to maintain his transcendent composure.

After his Defensive Demigod Artifact shattered, he took out a piece of Top-Grade Legendary Defense Equipment.

Compared to a Demigod Artifact, even Top-Grade Legendary Defense Equipment was far weaker.

It gave him no sense of security.

The Jade Prince charged in the direction the black light had come from,

intending to find the Legendary Witch Lich’s position.

The real battle had only just begun.

After Li Wei sent the Jade Prince to face the Legendary Witch Lich, he saw the Prince actually trying to force open a Space Teleportation Gate to return to the Jade Courtyard.

Without a second thought, he severed the connection from his side.

The Space Teleportation Gate vanished right before the Jade Prince’s eyes.

At this moment, in the vast garden, only Li Wei remained.

As he was preparing to leave, he suddenly remembered the backup plan he had yet to use.

He quickly activated it.

Amidst a mountain of gift boxes, one suddenly opened, and a hand reached out from within.

Immediately after, Li Wei’s Illusory Body climbed out of the gift box.

By now, all the gift boxes had been piled in the Jade Prince’s treasury, awaiting the Jade Prince’s command.

The fate of most of these gifts was to be left in this treasury to gather dust for a long time.

Now, someone was about to change their destiny.

Li Wei’s original plan was to wait for the guests to leave, have the Illusory Body hidden in the gift come out secretly, and then open a Space Teleportation Gate.

This would allow the Legendary Witch Lich to bring his main forces secretly into the Jade Courtyard.

He just hadn’t expected the plan to change.

The gift Li Wei had prepared went unused, as the Jade Prince had taken the initiative to summon him first.

He had even walked into the Space Teleportation Gate on his own accord.

It had all gone so smoothly it was almost unbelievable.

Just as he was about to leave, Li Wei remembered the Illusory Body hidden in the gift box.

’Since the Illusory Body is with a huge pile of gifts, why not make a haul before I go?’

After activating the Illusory Body, Li Wei was stunned by the sight before him.

He had appeared in the Jade Prince’s largest treasury, which was filled with all sorts of treasures the Prince had collected over a thousand years.

Normally, no one ever entered the treasury, and its great doors were always tightly shut.

Right now, Li Wei’s Illusory Body could do whatever it wanted.

He directly opened a Teleportation Gate to his Magic Space and swept all the surrounding gift boxes into it in one go.

He even took all the treasures from the shelves in the treasury.

His Magic Space was enormous anyway; he had no worries about not being able to fit everything.

The volume of his Magic Space now exceeded one billion cubic meters.

It was even larger than a Demigod Artifact Level Storage Ring.

It was big enough to empty the entire treasury.

However, some of the more important and precious items were locked with Magic Arrays and Magic Boxes.

Li Wei didn’t touch those things for the time being.

Forcibly breaking the Magic Arrays to get the items inside would trigger the treasury’s alarms and attract guards.

Li Wei first took everything he could easily carry away.

This process alone took him nearly an hour.

The Jade Prince’s treasury was just too big.

Li Wei felt as though he had just carried away a fortune worth several Kingdoms.

These collections and treasures were only a part of the Jade Prince’s wealth.

Compared to these items gathering dust in his treasury, the Jade Prince’s fixed assets, territories, and investments in other Kingdoms constituted his even greater fortune.

These were things Li Wei couldn’t take with him.

Still, even taking just a tenth of the Jade Prince’s wealth was enough for Li Wei to never have to worry about money or resources for the rest of his life.

After looting all the ordinary items in the treasury, Li Wei moved on to the precious treasures he wanted most.

’To be safe, I should destroy all the Magic Arrays at once,’ Li Wei thought.

If he relied solely on Magic, even as a Legendary Mage, he couldn’t accomplish this.

There were simply too many items.

He couldn’t possibly divide his attention to deal with every single Magic Array.

However, Li Wei could use the Element Fusion Rules to create micro-nukes.

He used useless decorative Gemstones collected from the treasury to create several hundred micro-nukes, placing them in strategic locations.

The power was calibrated to be just enough to destroy the Magic Arrays without damaging the items inside.

Then, he hid in a safe corner.

With a single thought, he instantly detonated all the micro-nukes.

A shuddering roar was heard, and the Magic Elements within the entire treasury instantly fell into chaos.

All the Magic Arrays were blown apart.

This action also triggered the treasury’s alarm array.

The sound of numerous footsteps immediately came from outside the door.

Li Wei’s Illusory Body cast the Object Control Skill, and all the surrounding treasures actively flew into the Teleportation Gate to the Magic Space.

The last item flew into the Magic Space.

The Illusory Body closed the teleportation gate to the Magic Space.

Then, it dissipated on the spot.

The wisp of Spiritual Power within the Illusory Body self-destructed with a soft POP, vanishing without a trace.

The entire treasury returned to calm.

RUMBLE!

The treasury doors were thrown open.

The guards saw the completely empty treasury and were all dumbfounded.

’What happened here?’

’Where are all the things from the treasury?’

’Even if a thief got in, where’s the thief who stole everything?’
