253: Gu Chen wins the key to the Ancient Divine Dynasty's treasure vault!

Li Jiaorou led Chu Changge toward the depths of the Gu Family.

On the way, whenever Gu Family Disciples tried to stop them...

...a voice would ring out from deep within the Gu Family Forbidden Ground.

"Let them in!"

Hearing this voice, the expressions of the Gu Family Disciples immediately became incredibly respectful.

"Yes! Old Ancestor!!!"

After responding softly, they cast a respectful glance at Chu Changge and the others before immediately making way.

Chu Changge looked at Li Jiaorou, and a set of information appeared in his eyes.

[Name: Li Jiaorou]

[Recent Events: Met with an old acquaintance, Gu Jiuge, and obtained information about the Primordial Divine Dynasty from him, as well as the key to open the Primordial Divine Dynasty Treasury!]

Chu Changge looked at this information.

He was startled.

This woman is truly capable; she actually has an old acquaintance still around.

Chu Changge remained silent and followed Li Jiaorou as they both walked into the depths of the Gu Family.

In the Forbidden Ground deep within the Gu Family, there was a pavilion.

In the pavilion sat a man with white hair, yet he possessed a handsome countenance and wore a white robe.

This was the Gu Family Old Ancestor, Gu Jiuge, who had just spoken to stop the battle between Li Jiaorou and Gu Hao.

He was an existence in the True Immortal Realm.

His cultivation was unfathomable; Chu Changge only took one look at him and immediately felt his head grow heavy and dizzy, as if struck by a heavy hammer.

Immediately afterward, his perception of this Gu Family Old Ancestor's appearance became blurred.

This was the power of a True Immortal Realm powerhouse.

You know of him, yet you cannot remember him.

Furthermore, one must not chant the true name of a True Immortal powerhouse, otherwise, they will sense it through the unseen.

Gu Jiuge looked up at Chu Changge and the other.

His gaze first swept over Chu Changge, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

"Interesting, one person actually possesses three different types of immortal bones..."

His exclamation filled Chu Changge's heart with panic.

It wouldn't be a problem if anyone else said this.

But coming from the mouth of a True Immortal Realm powerhouse, the meaning changed.

He felt as if his immortal bones could be taken away by this person at any moment.

After all, these were immortal bones, things that contained the Law of the Immortal Dao.

They were excellent items even for those in the True Immortal Realm or Immortal King Realm.

If this person truly wanted to take action, he would be unable to resist.

Gu Jiuge only glanced at Chu Changge before withdrawing his gaze; he then looked at Li Jiaorou, and the surprise in his eyes grew even more intense.

"Princess Li, you indeed came out of the Burial Ground of Corpses. However, your current body is very strange!"

"You have the aura of Immortality, yet you cannot live forever!"

Hearing this, Li Jiaorou gave a bitter smile and cast a strange glance at Chu Changge.

She thought to herself: "If this person hadn't forcibly taken me out of the Burial Ground of Corpses, I would have already obtained the qualification for Immortality!"

However, this was only something she said in her heart; she did not speak it aloud.

She smiled bitterly and said, "Some things happened in between, and there were some changes, so I could only give up on Immortality and leave the Burial Ground of Corpses early! As for you, Brother Jiuge, it's been a long time, and you've actually achieved Immortal Ascension!"

Judging from their conversation, the two of them must have been figures from the same era.

Gu Jiuge smiled and said, "It was all just a matter of luck. By the way, Princess Li, you must have come to find me for that item!"

Li Jiaorou nodded and said, "Indeed. I wonder if that item is still with you?"

Gu Jiuge didn't waste any words and took out a black token.

"Yes! This object has been in my care for a long time; I'll return it to you now!"

After Gu Jiuge finished speaking, he tossed the object to Li Jiaorou.

Chu Changge's gaze also fell upon this token.

The token for the Primordial Divine Dynasty Treasury.

According to his understanding, the Primordial Divine Dynasty was once a behemoth of the Northern Cold Immortal Domain. It was said that when this divine dynasty existed, it contained countless True Immortals and hundreds of Immortal Kings.

Unfortunately, the Primordial Divine Dynasty did something unknown or offended someone, and overnight, the entire divine dynasty was wiped out by a mysterious power.

Countless True Immortals died, and Immortal Kings fell.

In an instant, the Northern Cold Immortal Domain's Origin Qi was greatly damaged. The Northern Cold Immortal Domain, which was originally a top-tier existence in the Immortal Realm, suddenly plummeted to rock bottom.

And it was said that before the Primordial Divine Dynasty was destroyed, these True Immortal powerhouses and Immortal King experts placed their lifelong Legacies into a treasury.

This was the treasury of the Primordial Divine Dynasty, which contained opportunities for Immortality.

Now that Li Jiaorou held this token to open the treasury of the Primordial Divine Dynasty, she had instantly become a wealthy woman.

Li Jiaorou looked at the token in her hand, her emotions very complex.

She said, "Brother Jiuge, thank you for safeguarding this token all these years. According to our previous agreement, when I go to open this treasury, I can take ten people from the Gu Family into the treasury to select ten opportunities for Immortality!"

Hearing this, Gu Jiuge said with joy, "Good! Then I thank Princess Li for the reward!"

After speaking, he paused for a moment as if he had thought of something.

His expression became a bit more solemn.

"By the way, Princess Li, you probably haven't been back in the Immortal Realm for long and don't understand certain things!"

"Recently, an organization called the Calamity Organization has appeared in the Immortal Realm. This group of people is very difficult to kill, and they also seem to be looking for the treasury of the Primordial Divine Dynasty. Furthermore, they specifically hunt those of the Li Bloodline. You must be careful!"

Hearing this, Li Jiaorou thought of the 'Players' who appeared in the Lower Realm, also known as those unkillable 'Humanoid Monsterss'!

Chu Changge thought of this as well.

The two of them looked at each other, both understanding what the other was thinking.

"Brother Jiuge, thank you for the warning. I will be careful!"

Gu Jiuge nodded; he had seen their interaction just now, but he did not ask further.

"Alright! You should leave now. It is not good to stay here for long."

After Gu Jiuge finished speaking, he waved his hand and sent Chu Changge and Li Jiaorou out of the Forbidden Ground.

At this time, outside, the great battle between Gu Chen and Gu Yi had reached a white-hot stage.

This was a pivotal battle. Whoever won would be the Gu Family's person in charge for the next ten thousand years—that is, the representative of the Gu Family Main Lineage, representing the orthodox Bloodline.

Gu Chen was covered in blood and looked very wretched.

Gu Yi was equally wretched; he had even had an eye gouged out.

"Gu Chen, it seems one of us must die today!"

Gu Yi spoke coldly.

He had not expected that Gu Chen, who was born of a lowly branch lineage, would be so strong as to push him to this point.

Gu Chen gave a cold smile and said, "Gu Yi, I have the same intention. Although I do not wish to kill you, for the development of my Gu Family Branch Lineage for the next ten thousand years, I must defeat you!"

Just as the two were at each other's throats and killing intent arose in their eyes...

...the Gu Family Old Ancestor, Gu Jiuge, still intervened.

"Enough! Both of you, stop!"

A wave of pressure fell upon the two of them, instantly forcing them to a halt.

"Gu Yi, from this day forward, the position of the Gu Family Main Lineage shall be taken by Gu Chen's branch. You have disappointed the Family too much. Having enjoyed the resources of the Main Lineage for tens of thousands of years, yet still being no match for the branch lineage—from this point alone, you are unworthy of sitting in the position of the Main Lineage!"
