Chapter 162 Treasure Chest
Under Lin Tian's gaze, the Crimson-Bearded Dragon transformed into a cluster of light spots. These light spots gathered together, circled twice in the air, and then slowly landed in front of the giant tree.
hum~
As the light coalesced, a golden treasure chest appeared, and Lin Tian approached it without hesitation.
[Ding! You have gained some spiritual energy.]
[Ding! You have obtained 14 Silver Essences]
[Ding! Obtained [Lightning Tail]]
[Ding! You have obtained a Dragon Ball!]
[Ding! Obtained [Red-Bearded Dragon]]
A series of system notifications echoed in Lin Tian's ears. Lin Tian felt a wave of dizziness, and when he came to his senses again, he was in that dark space, with the huge dragon scale still in front of him.
However, compared to the previous one, the first black hole had an additional image: the one filled with white mist, the one in the shroud.
After taking one last look at the other black holes, Lin Tian left the secret realm.
They will come back.
.................
"Your Majesty is truly awe-inspiring!"
"Da is so handsome!"
"As expected of the king, he exudes an aura of royalty simply by sitting there."
Inside the city lord's hall, a group of lesser demons were praising Lin Tian, and even though Lin Tian had a thick skin, he couldn't help but feel embarrassed.
Lonese whispered to Loren beside her; as one of the few humans present, the two were also very nervous.
The two had been invited by Lin Tian to the banquet, but as soon as they sat down, they heard the little demons praising Lin Tian.
Stop the little demons from praising him, and Lin Tian looked at Loren and the other person. When Loren saw Lin Tian looking over, he quickly got up.
"My lord... no! Your Majesty."
After spending a few days with the rat demons, Loren also began to learn to call them "King" along with them.
Lin Tian waved his hand, indicating that he didn't need to be too nervous. After letting Loren sit down, Lin Tian leaned forward slightly, placed his hands on the table, and began to talk to Loto.
"Your daughter is very good."
"Very capable."
Lin Tian was referring to her talent. He had observed the girl over the past few days and found that she was indeed capable, handling everything in an orderly manner and quickly resolving any difficulties she encountered.
"Thank you for your recognition, Your Majesty."
The old man was certainly happy to hear his daughter being praised; he knew his daughter's personality well.
犟！
She spends all her time reading books and doesn't even want to go out for a walk. If she continues like this, not only will she not find a husband, but she might even develop mental problems in the future.
Fortunately, now that he's Lin Tian's political officer, he's constantly on the go, so at least he gets enough exercise.
After chatting for a while, Lin Tian finally got down to business:
"I have a question for you."
"Your Majesty, please speak."
"Do you know........."
Next, Lin Tian inquired with Loren about the whereabouts of the Ear-Listening Fury. He thought that Loren was, after all, a nobleman, knowledgeable and experienced, and should know quite a lot.
But Loren still disappointed him.
"Musical instrument?"
"Yes."
"I...have never seen it before..."
Seeing this, Lin Tian stopped asking questions and simply started drinking his wine.
But just then, Lorne suddenly said something to Loren, and after receiving Loren's nod, he also stood up and said to Lin Tian:
"Your Majesty, although I do not know what musical instrument you are referring to, judging from your description, it must be a priceless treasure?"
"Yes."
Seeing Lonese suddenly stand up, Lin Tian was puzzled, but still answered.
To be honest, I'm not actually from this country.
"I was born in the Black Scorpion Kingdom, the son of a maid in the Black Scorpion family. After a series of events, I came here."
"Although I haven't lived in the Black Scorpion Kingdom for very long, because I was born into the Black Scorpion Clan, the most powerful family in the Black Scorpion Kingdom, I know quite a bit about things that ordinary people don't know."
"This matter isn't exactly a secret, at least not within the Black Scorpion family, but after some thought, I believe it might be of some help to Your Majesty."
"It is said that there is a tomb on Black Rock Cliff in the Black Scorpion Kingdom, where the founder and first patriarch of the Black Scorpion family, the Black Scorpion King, is buried!"
"It is said that he was a legendary powerhouse in his lifetime, but he died in a battle and did not even leave behind his body. As time went by, this legendary powerhouse who once dominated the world gradually disappeared from the public eye."
"Only the Black Scorpion family remembers that for thousands of years they have been searching for the relics of the Black Scorpion King, attempting to resurrect this great king."
"However, to their surprise, they actually found it after their persistent search."
"On that battlefield, the descendants of the Black Scorpion family found a pendant of the Black Scorpion King, which made them ecstatic, but their attempt to resurrect him ended in failure."
"I don't know what they were thinking. What kind of magic can resurrect a person? It's unlikely to succeed."
"The failure to resurrect the Black Scorpion King saddened the descendants of the Black Scorpion family. In their grief, they buried the Black Scorpion King at Black Rock Cliff in the Golden Nether Desert, where it is said that high-level sand beasts often appear, making it a very dangerous place."
"Many years later, news suddenly spread within the Black Scorpion family that they had not only buried the Black Scorpion King's pendant in the tomb, but also many of the Black Scorpion King's personal belongings."
"It is said that these relics were all taken from the Black Scorpion King's spatial pendant."
"You know, he was a legendary powerhouse. Even items he didn't use often during his lifetime would be rare treasures today."
"The Black Scorpion family claims that they open a tomb every ten years, and each time it is opened, many treasures will appear. On the day of the opening, the Black Scorpion family will send people to the tomb to take them."
"I was wondering why they didn't take all the relics at once; wouldn't that have been better for the Black Scorpion family?"
"But all I learned was that it was the rule, and I didn't know any further details."
"Judging by the time, it will be the seventh time soon. Since Your Majesty is looking for valuable items, why not go and explore there?"
"Of course, I'm only informing Your Majesty of this information, because it's extremely dangerous there. An ordinary person could easily lose their life if they're not careful. Although Your Majesty is very powerful,..."
After listening to Lonese's words, Lin Tian fell into deep thought. If what he said was true, then the tomb was full of the Black Scorpion King's treasures. And since the Black Scorpion King was an ancient powerhouse, he shouldn't possess the Ear-Hearing Wrath.
But on second thought, given the coincidence of the timing, the inexplicable appearance of Earring Wrath and Flying Dragon Scales, and his current nonsensical search, heading to the Black Scorpion King's tomb seemed like a good option.
"I see."
Lin Tian did not give an answer to everyone present. After confirming the information with Lonese, he fell into deep thought.
Is it the tomb of the Black Scorpion King?
interesting.
