334: Chapter 334 Imperial Treasury

King Blood Axe scrutinized him, a glint flashing in his dark red pupils.

"No need for formalities."

His voice was low, like stones rolling over an iron plate.

King Feiyun also looked at Lin Yun, her eyes filled with a hint of curiosity.

Was this the 48-year-old Sixth Order Completion, the possessor of the Space Element?

He looked truly young.

His aura was indeed strong.

Far stronger than his peers.

Even stronger than many Sixth Order Completion who were thousands of years old.

Ziyi's gaze swept over Lin Yun, then landed on Lu Shan.

Lu Shan shrank her neck and hid behind Qianye.

Ziyi said nothing, only giving a slight nod.

...

The host and guests took their seats.

A maid robot served tea and refreshments.

King Blood Axe picked up his teacup, took a sip, and then set it down.

He did not beat around the bush and stated his purpose directly.

"Lin Yun, we have come today to invite you to represent the Lingyuan Empire in the centennial Friendship Tournament."

Lin Yun had anticipated this and readily agreed: "This Junior is willing."

The corners of King Blood Axe's mouth turned up imperceptibly.

A hint of satisfaction flashed in King Feiyun's eyes as well.

Lin Yun's prompt agreement saved them a lot of breath.

King Blood Axe said: "For this tournament, the Tianlang Empire has a Genius at the Seventh Order Early Stage. On our Lingyuan Empire side, all ten of us are at the Sixth Order Completion."

He paused, then continued: "Your Space Domain can counter a World Projection. You are our only hope."

Lin Yun had not expected the Tianlang Empire to have such a Genius.

To have advanced to the Seventh Order in less than a hundred years.

His expression was calm; he said nothing, only nodded.

King Blood Axe continued:

"We know you are searching for the remains of powerful creatures; we will not let you work in vain."

"After the tournament ends, regardless of whether we win or lose, you may choose one treasure from the Imperial Treasury with a value not exceeding one trillion as your reward."

Lin Yun felt a surge of joy.

One trillion.

It was no small sum.

But what he cared about more was the powerful creature remains in the Imperial Treasury.

How vast must an Empire's collection be?

"Senior," Lin Yun said, "This Junior does not need the complete remains of a creature, just scraps will do. Having the complete biological information is enough."

The three of them, including King Blood Axe, were all stunned; they had never expected Lin Yun's requirements to be so lenient.

The two King-level powerhouses exchanged a glance, seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

Scraps?

Just needing the complete biological information?

They had thought Lin Yun was looking for powerful creature remains to forge weapons or to Cultivate.

Unexpectedly, he only needed the biological information.

King Feiyun said: "If it is only scraps, then there is no value limit. Anything in the Imperial Treasury that you can make use of, you may choose."

Lin Yun was overjoyed, stood up, and bowed in thanks: "Thank you, Senior!"

King Feiyun waved her hand: "No need for formalities. You are fighting on behalf of the Empire; this is what you deserve."

King Blood Axe and King Feiyun exchanged a few words quickly using Divine Thought.

Then, King Feiyun waved her hand.

A light screen unfolded in the center of the living room.

Inside the light screen was the information of the Imperial Treasury.

Countless treasures were categorized and neatly arranged.

Source Weapons, Source Armor, Heaven And Earth Treasure, Spirit Pills and miraculous medicines, Yao Beast remains, and Ore and metals.

They were dazzling and countless.

King Feiyun said: "You can choose now. Once you have finished, just have them delivered."

Lin Yun was overjoyed again and bowed in thanks once more.

King Blood Axe and King Feiyun watched him, feeling secretly satisfied.

This young man was polite, measured, and not greedy.

...

Lin Yun's gaze fell on the light screen, and he began to browse the Imperial Treasury.

He didn't know until he looked, and he was shocked when he did.

As expected of an Imperial Treasury; the treasures inside were so numerous that his eyes blurred just looking at them.

Sixth Order, Seventh Order, Eighth Order, Ninth Order—treasures of every Rank were available.

Yao Beast remains were even more numerous; from First Order to Ninth Order, all kinds of creature remains were neatly arranged.

Lin Yun browsed rapidly, becoming more shocked the more he looked.

Several creatures from the Diyang Giant Beast's Bloodline memory Legacy were here.

There was a star-swallowing giant python, Ninth Order, tens of thousands of kilometers long, capable of swallowing a planet in one bite.

There was a Void Realm-tearing giant eagle, Ninth Order, whose wings could cover a star system when spread, and whose claws could tear through space.

There was a heaven-burning giant lion, Eighth Order, its body burning with golden flames, capable of burning through even a star.

Each was incredibly powerful, and each tempted Lin Yun.

Unfortunately, the Ranks were too high.

Eighth Order, Ninth Order—he couldn't use them now.

The Diyang Giant Beast was only Seventh Order; at most, it could only gestate a Seventh Order Clone.

Even if he obtained the Eighth Order genetic information, he would have to wait until the Diyang Giant Beast advanced to the Eighth Order before he could use it.

That was a matter for several hundred years later.

Lin Yun thought for a moment and decided to look at Seventh Order and below first.

He applied a filter, displaying only Seventh Order and below creature remains.

The number decreased significantly, but there were still many.

Too many to even look through properly.

All kinds of creatures, all kinds of forms, all kinds of talents.

Plants, animals, energy, rocks, metals.

Some excelled in attack, some in defense, some in speed, some in recovery.

Some had a natural affinity for the Fire Element, some for the Water Element, some for the Earth Element, some for the Wind Element.

Lin Yun looked at them one by one, comparing them one by one.

King Blood Axe and his companions did not rush him, letting him choose carefully.

They drank tea, chatted, and occasionally glanced at Lin Yun, feeling even more favorably disposed toward the patience and meticulousness of this young man.

...

Time passed minute by minute.

Lin Yun watched for nearly an hour and finally selected twenty types of creatures.

Each was incredibly powerful.

Each was only slightly weaker than the Diyang Giant Beast.

There was the plant type—Star-Devouring Vine, Seventh Order, capable of wrapping around a planet and draining all its energy.

There was the animal type—Void Realm Whale, Seventh Order, swimming in the Void Realm, massive in size, with a natural affinity for the Space Element.

There was the energy type—Star Essence, Seventh Order, an energy lifeform born when a star dies, a pure Fire Element body.

There was the rock type—Mountain Giant, Seventh Order, tens of thousands of meters tall, possessing infinite strength, with astonishing defense.

There was the metal type—Star Iron Beast, Seventh Order, its body made of Star Iron, incredibly hard, impervious to swords and spears.

Twenty types of creatures, twenty types of forms, twenty types of talents.

Each one made Lin Yun's heart race.

But which one to choose?

He was in a dilemma.

Lin Yun thought about it and decided to ask the three Seniors.

They were knowledgeable and experienced, and their understanding of these creatures was far deeper than his own.

"Three Seniors," Lin Yun said, "This Junior has selected twenty types from these creatures, but I do not know which one to choose. I would like to ask for your guidance."

The three of them looked at the twenty creatures Lin Yun had selected, a flash of admiration appearing in their eyes simultaneously.

"Good eye," King Blood Axe said.

"These twenty creatures are all the top-tier existences among the Seventh Order. Any one of them, if brought out, could cause a sensation."
