Chapter 2395: Wang Teng’s Choice, Three Treasures! (4) Translator: Henyee Translations | Editor: Henyee Translations

“That one is…” Hengzang Bo and several elders of the five major families were stunned, their eyes showing signs of surprise.

This third location was also a shelf, but it wasn’t on the highest shelf. Instead, it was on the third level, reachable by Wang Teng’s height.

It was a piece of animal hide scroll with nothing on it, just lying there on the shelf without any protective measures.

This piece of animal hide scroll was even more inconspicuous than the jade box containing the Soul-Severing Saint Soul Pill.

After all, no one would regard a seemingly useless piece of animal hide scroll highly.

But Wang Teng, through his Real Eye, saw something peculiar. The number of runes on this piece of animal hide scroll exceeded all the runes contained in the treasures of this treasury, and they were more mysterious. Even with Wang Teng’s proficiency in runes, he couldn’t decipher what they were.

“Weird!” Wang Teng stopped, his brow furrowing slightly.

“Is that just a piece of animal hide scroll? Is there anything special about it?” Round Ball asked.

“I don’t know,” Wang Teng replied.

“You don’t know?” Round Ball was somewhat surprised, exclaiming, “You can’t tell?”

“Maybe.” Wang Teng nodded.

“Then are you going to choose it?” Round Ball frowned. “You only have three chances, and you’ve already taken one with the Dragon Blood Crimson Gold. You should choose carefully.”

Wang Teng didn’t say anything, turning around to walk towards the next location.

Even Hengzang Bo and the others weren’t surprised. Even they couldn’t discern the secrets of this animal hide scroll, let alone Wang Teng. His decision not to choose it was normal.

Soon, Wang Teng arrived at the fourth location.

Hengzang Bo and the other elders didn’t know what to say anymore.

This guy could pinpoint the exact location of treasures with precision!

This was the third time!

If it happened once or twice, one could attribute it to luck, a blind cat stumbling upon a dead mouse. But to consistently find treasures three times in a row wasn’t just luck. It was a display of strength and insight beyond comparison.

Moreover, from a certain perspective, even that piece of animal hide scroll wasn’t ordinary. To be able to find something that even they could not discern made it a treasure in its own right.

So, strictly speaking, Wang Teng had already found treasures with extreme accuracy four times.

The fourth treasure was a star bone, housed within a huge transparent canopy, resembling an arm bone, with intricate earth-yellow patterns that looked particularly peculiar.

“That’s the star bone of a titan-level star beast!” Round Ball exclaimed in awe.

“An earth-element star bone, and a titan-level one at that, is indeed rare!” Wang Teng nodded in agreement.

“Do you want to choose it?” Round Ball asked.

“Let’s take a closer look.” Wang Teng didn’t rush his decision this time and continued to the next location.

However, the next two treasures didn’t quite satisfy Wang Teng either.

One was a hundred-thousand-year-old water-element spiritual plant, a lush grass imbued with rich Water Force.

The other was also a hundred-thousand-year-old spiritual plant but of the fire element. It was a peculiar flower.

Outside the treasury, they would both be highly coveted alchemy materials, likely to incite contention among grandmaster alchemists.

But Wang Teng wasn’t particularly interested in them.

“He’s not taking the star bone or the hundred-thousand-year-old spiritual plants.” Hengzang Bo and the others were very surprised.

According to their expectations, Wang Teng, a cosmos-stage martial warrior, would be extremely excited to see such top-tier treasures. Any one of them would be a significant gain for him.

But now, looking at Wang Teng’s demeanor, aside from his initial surprise upon encountering the Dragon Blood Crimson Gold, none of the subsequent treasures seemed to evoke even a hint of joy. Instead, he seemed to show a trace of disdain.

This left the eternal-stage elders somewhat speechless. It seemed they had underestimated the tastes of Councilor Wang Teng.

At this moment, they seemed to finally understand.

At the outset, seeing Wang Teng enter the treasury with such excitement, they thought he had been awestruck by the treasures, unable to resist their allure. But now, it seemed not to be the case.

In retrospect, they realized that his initial expression might have been purely due to his love of wealth.

A person obsessed with wealth would show such an expression upon encountering any treasure, regardless of its rank.

Now, they found themselves somewhat at a loss for words.

“Councilor Wang Teng is truly an interesting character!” Yizang Zhao shook her head.

“Yes, I rarely see such a young man nowadays. I wonder which force nurtured him?” Hengzang Bo remarked with emotion.

“He’s about to reach the location of the last treasure. If he doesn’t choose that one either, he probably won’t find any of the other treasures appealing,” Guizang Ling said with a bitter smile. “It’s embarrassing to admit, but our prestigious treasury couldn’t provide three satisfactory treasures for a cosmos-stage martial warrior.”

“Well…” Shouzang Tuo, Yizang Zhao, and the others fell silent, feeling somewhat speechless.

Unbeknownst to them, their mindset had completely shifted from the initial distress to a state of unease.

Yes, it was unease!

They were genuinely worried that Wang Teng might not find three satisfactory treasures. Such an outcome would truly be embarrassing for the five families.

The expressions of Hengzang Chuan and the other family leaders became subtle, their gaze fixed on the scene within the light screen, their thoughts unknown.

Hengzang Mo and the others seemed to have noticed the abnormality as well. They fell silent and looked at the light screen quietly.

“Here comes the last one!” Wang Teng arrived at the final location, feeling somewhat disappointed. If the last treasure failed to move him, he would have no choice but to select the star bone.

After all, the value of the star bone was undoubtedly the highest.

It was a jade box. Upon opening it, a star core appeared before Wang Teng, causing him to pause for a moment.

“Wow, it’s the star core of a titan-level star beast!” Round Ball exclaimed in shock.

“It’s a star core.” Wang Teng’s eyes lit up as if he had realized something. He carefully sensed it and immediately detected a special fluctuation within the star core. A faint curve appeared at the corner of his mouth as he thought to himself. There’s still a remnant beast soul within this star core, perfect for refining the Shadow Puppetry Seal.

The Shadow Puppetry Seal was a special restriction for making puppets that Wang Teng obtained from the Poison Erosion World. Among the required materials was this star core, and it needed to contain a beast soul.

A star core without a beast soul was useless.

The Shadow Puppetry Seal could create puppets of various levels, but the higher the level, the higher the required material grade.

For example, if Wang Teng wanted to create an eternal-stage shadow puppet, he would need an eternal-stage body, along with this titan-level star core.

Under normal circumstances, he would not have access to a titan-level star core. Even if he participated in auctions, it would require a large amount of Chaos Coins to possibly buy one.

With his current wealth, he probably couldn’t afford it.

A titan-level star core represented a terrifying titan-level star beast, a rarity that was destined to be extremely scarce. Only eternal-stage powerhouses had a chance to kill such beings.

Someone like him, a cosmos-stage martial warrior, couldn’t even touch that level.

But now, he saw a titan-level star core within the treasury, and it contained a beast soul. This was simply a treasure sent to him by the heavens, something he couldn’t afford to miss.

“This is it!” Wang Teng no longer hesitated. He walked towards the exit of the treasury, and the jade box containing the titan-level star core followed behind him.

At the same time, the previously overlooked piece of animal skin also flew out of the treasury and floated behind Wang Teng. In the end, he chose that piece of animal skin..
