99: Cage Domain
Just then, Grandpa Xuan's voice rang out in his mind: "Oh, you can teleport now, so you can enter the Ling Tian Pagoda physically!"
Xun Xiuyuan heard Grandpa Xuan's words and asked in confusion: "Didn't you say I needed to reach the Po Kong Realm first?"
Grandpa Xuan replied: "Because only those in the Po Kong Realm can teleport. Some geniuses who comprehended the Laws early can also do it."
Xun Xiuyuan immediately understood and no longer bothered the lonely old man.
Looking at the equipment treasure chests in his backpack, Xun Xiuyuan first chose armor from the Po Kong Realm equipment treasure chest, because he already had the wu hook as a weapon, which was temporarily sufficient.
Ding dong!
Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Heavenly Illusion Silk.
Heavenly Illusion Silk: Po Kong-level armor, close-fitting undergarment, can resist most damage from cultivators in the Po Kong Realm and below.
Ding dong!
Congratulations, host, you have obtained the kings battle armor.
kings battle armor: Po Kong-level armor, upper body armor, can resist most damage from cultivators in the Po Kong Realm and below.
Ding dong!
Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Azure Washing Robe.
Azure Washing Robe: Po Kong-level armor, full-body battle robe, can resist most damage from cultivators in the Po Kong Realm and below.
He clicked three times in a row, getting two pieces of women's clothing and one he could use himself.
Looking at the remaining two treasure chests, Xun Xiuyuan chose the special equipment he had never had before, because the two women only needed armor; high-level weapons would not be very useful to them right now, as their cultivation realms were still low. Even the genius Xie Nanqiao had just reached the mid-Innate Realm.
Ding dong!
Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Glimmer Shield.
Glimmer Shield: One-time use item. When activated, it releases a light shield around the user, granting immunity to damage from cultivators below the Shattering Void Realm for three minutes.
Looking at this item, Xun Xiuyuan remembered the Flame Storm in his backpack.
These two items are a set, right? Originally, using the Flame Storm posed a huge risk for Xun Xiuyuan because space would be sealed during its use, and he wasn't sure if he could even enter the Ling Tian Pagoda. But now, with this Glimmer Shield, he could use it with confidence.
Throw out the Flame Storm, immediately activate the Glimmer Shield. Hmm, although it's extravagant, it's perfect, hehe.
He quickly put it away and placed it with the Flame Storm in his backpack.
Ding dong!
Congratulations, host, you have obtained the void escape boots.
void escape boots: Po Kong-level equipment, can increase the user's speed by three times, and simultaneously expand the user's teleportation range by three times.
When Xun Xiuyuan saw these boots, he immediately regretted opening an extra piece of armor. These special items were all good things!
Seeing the last three Shattering Void Realm treasure chests, Xun Xiuyuan thought for a moment, then clicked on weapons for all of them. His own equipment was basically sufficient, but Shattering Void Realm items were special items containing Laws, so he decided to choose weapons to strengthen humanity's power.
Actually, Xun Xiuyuan wanted to choose a piece of armor, but he was afraid it would be something like a bellyband, so he decided to wait until later to choose things he needed.
Ding dong!
Congratulations, host, you have obtained Kunwu.
Kunwu: Shattering Void-level broadsword, incomparably sharp, containing the power of the Law of Space.
Ding dong!
Congratulations, host, you have obtained Flowing Firefly.
Flowing Firefly: Shattering Void-level soft whip, ever-changing, containing the power of the Law of Water.
Ding dong!
Congratulations, host, you have obtained the soul pearl.
soul pearl: Shattering Void-level soul-type attack amplification weapon, can double the attack intensity and range of the user's Soul Secret Skill.
Upon seeing the description of the soul pearl, Xun Xiuyuan's breathing stopped. He couldn't believe his eyes. Was this item tailor-made for him?
Did the System know he had obtained the Dream of a Thousand Years? Was it meant to be used with Soul Pierce?
Xun Xiuyuan took out the soul pearl and held it in his hand. When his spiritual power surged into the soul pearl, he immediately felt his spiritual power become incredibly active, making his control over it even more effortless.
"Oh, a soul-type attack secret treasure? Kid, did you inherit the legacy of some powerful being? I suspected before that you had a soul-type defensive secret treasure, and now you've pulled out a soul-type offensive secret treasure. You really have a lot of treasures on you, kid!"
Grandpa Xuan's voice suddenly reappeared, as if he had been watching Xun Xiuyuan all along.
Xun Xiuyuan replied helplessly: "Don't you sleep? Are you always watching me?"
Grandpa Xuan was immediately choked by Xun Xiuyuan's words. What kind of thought process is that? He was talking about soul secret treasures, and Xun Xiuyuan asked him if he slept.
Grandpa Xuan paused for a moment and then said: "I haven't chatted with anyone for a very, very long time, so I'm temporarily keeping an eye on the outside world, that's all."
As if remembering something, Xun Xiuyuan asked: "If I'm intimate with my wife, can I turn you off?"
Grandpa Xuan was stunned: "Turn me off?"
Then he reacted: "Kid, what do you take me for? You are the master of the Ling Tian Pagoda. You just need to temporarily cut off the connection between the Ling Tian Pagoda and your sea of consciousness."
Xun Xiuyuan chuckled, covering his embarrassment.
Grandpa Xuan asked again: "You still haven't answered me. Did you inherit the legacy of some powerful being? Tell me, I might know them."
Xun Xiuyuan had deliberately changed the subject, not wanting to answer that question because it was difficult to explain. Who knew that after all that, the old man hadn't forgotten?
He could only reply: "There's no legacy of a powerful being. I picked it up in the Exotic Beast Mountain Range."
Grandpa Xuan was greatly angered by Xun Xiuyuan's answer.
He roared in Xun Xiuyuan's mind: "Picked it up? You pick up another one and let me see! This realm is a Cage Domain; it's impossible for you to pick up such things here. Even in the Great World, you wouldn't pick them up."
This was the second time Xun Xiuyuan had heard Grandpa Xuan mention the Cage Domain.
He asked: "Grandpa Xuan, what does 'Cage Domain' mean?"
Grandpa Xuan was startled: "You don't know?"
Xun Xiuyuan honestly replied: "I don't know. I've never heard of it."
Grandpa Xuan was also surprised: "The outside world calls this realm the Cage Domain because, seven thousand years ago, a large number of convicts were exiled to this realm, and then powerful beings extracted most of the Laws from the Cage Domain, leaving only primary Laws like the Law of Space and time."
This was the first time Xun Xiuyuan had heard such a secret, and he asked in astonishment: "Are we all descendants of convicts?"
Grandpa Xuan's affirmative voice came: "Anyone born in this realm is definitely a descendant of convicts. As for what crimes those so-called convicts committed, I don't know."
After thinking for a moment, he continued: "Precisely because this realm was a place of exile for human convicts, and there were no traces of the Exotic Beast Clan's infestation, Ling Tian spent a great deal of effort to send the Ling Tian Pagoda here before his death. Who knew there would be exotic beasts here too? It's really strange!"
Xun Xiuyuan was completely confused. He didn't care about what the Great World was, or what the Cage Domain was. This was his home, his reborn home, and he would do his best to protect it.
Other things were too far away from him; he didn't need to bother with them. Out of sight, out of mind.
Grandpa Xuan also knew that Xun Xiuyuan's cultivation was still low and he couldn't leave this realm, so he didn't say much more. Instead, he asked: "You can enter the Ling Tian Pagoda now. Do you want to come in and train in that extraordinary exotic beast space?"
Xun Xiuyuan immediately remembered that there were still over ten thousand extraordinary exotic beasts waiting for him to 'transcend'.
After checking his lottery results, his usable exotic beast value had once again surpassed one billion. He immediately added another five hundred points of spiritual power to himself, bringing his spiritual power to 20,700.
Xun Xiuyuan thought to himself: This spiritual power should already be considered mid-Extraordinary, right? Moreover, he was wearing the kings battle armor, so it should still be relatively safe to go in.
"Yes, Grandpa Xuan, I'm going to 'transcend' them now."
The moment he finished speaking, Xun Xiuyuan vanished from his spot, and the Ling Tian Pagoda also turned into a speck of dust, floating in the air, invisible to the naked eye.
