Chapter 577 - The Secret Inside The Crystal Skull
After the black shadows left, Wang Teng’s body appeared once again. A cold smile was hanging at the edge of his lips. He was in deep thought. It looked like Alais’s identity wasn’t simple.
He shook his head, not wanting to think too much. His body merged into the darkness again.
Wang Teng went back to the museum. However, this time, he chose to sneak in. He appeared in front of the crystal skull again.
This crystal skull was much more mysterious than the ancient sword. It could drop Imperial Realm Spirit and Enlightenment directly.
Wang Teng decided to sleep here tonight. He wouldn’t leave until he drained all the attributes in this crystal skull.
Imperial Realm Enlightenment*2
Imperial Realm Spirit*3
Imperial Realm Spirit*1
The attribute bubbles dropped one by one. Although it was a long wait, Wang Teng was extremely patient. He merged into the darkness and sat cross-legged in a corner, resting while picking up attributes.
Soon, it was almost 10 pm. The museum was about to close.
The security guards in the museum came over for a routine check. They were all martial warriors, but they couldn’t find Wang Teng, who was a general-stage martial warrior.
After the security left, Wang Teng pondered for a moment and followed them. While one of the security guards was visiting the toilet, he knocked him unconscious and assumed his appearance. Then, he walked into the surveillance room blatantly.
“You went for such a long time, we thought you fell into the toilet bowl,” the security guards in the room laughed and teased him.
A sinister smile appeared on Wang Teng’s face. Though he kept quiet, a strange glow shimmered in his eyes. He stared into everyone’s eyes.
Bewitch!
The security guards in the surveillance room instantly went into a daze.
“None of you discovered anything tonight,” Wang Teng spoke calmly. Then, he turned around and left the surveillance room.
“Yes!” the security guards in the room replied in unison.
Wang Teng went all the way to the display window where the crystal skull was at. He used dark Force to cover up the surveillance camera before drilling his spiritual power into the keyhole. He opened the display window.
Only a divine spirit master like him would be able to use this high-class and simple stealing method.
But if the other divine spirit masters knew that he used his spiritual power for stealing, they might chase him along the streets with a long knife.
Wang Teng laughed at himself as he looked at the crystal skull in front of him with shining eyes. He didn’t use his hand to touch it. Instead, he lifted it with his spiritual power.
The crystal skull floated in front of his face, staring at Wang Teng with its empty eyes.
For some reason, when he looked into the empty eyes of this crystal skull, Wang Teng felt as if he was looking at a real human. He frowned uncontrollably.
What a strange feeling!
Wang Teng took a deep breath and snorted. “Let me see what secrets you have.”
The next moment, he seeped his spiritual power into the crystal skull.
Boom!
Wang Teng’s mind shook. Then, his vision turned bright. A galaxy had appeared in front of him. It was dark and endless. Stars shimmered brightly in the dark galaxy, and a mysterious feeling engulfed him.
“What is this?” Wang Teng was astounded. Disbelief appeared in his eyes.
As he sized up the star image, the feeling of disbelief grew stronger and stronger.
This looks like… a star chart!
The stars in front of him formed many different light paths. They were complicated but clear…
erec
Wang Teng was in deep thought. He felt that he had discovered something incredible. This was a star chart!
Seriously?
No! Wang Teng quickly noticed something was wrong. He contemplated for some time before muttering to himself, “This is only part of the star chart. It’s incomplete.”
Suddenly, he remembered Alais’s words. There were 13 crystal skulls in total. Did this mean that he could only complete the star chart if he gathered all the crystal skulls?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the answer. There was a huge secret hidden in the crystal skulls!
His eyes were filled with interest and curiosity. He wanted to investigate further. But soon, he was caught in a dilemma. He couldn’t take this crystal skull away.
If he stole it, the small town would be in havoc tomorrow. At that time, powerful martial warriors might be sent out to find the crystal skull. It would be impossible for him to keep the crystal skull hidden.
He had visited the museum, so he would definitely be treated as a suspect.
Wang Teng quickly rejected the thought of stealing the crystal skull. He mustn’t be impatient. He would go back and think through this thoroughly.
Even if he wanted to steal it, he would wait until he left this place. That way, he would have more freedom. With his ability, he could leave whenever he wanted. No one could keep
him.
Wang Teng left immediately once he decided. He took one last look at the incomplete star chart before he retracted his spiritual power.
He had a premonition that once that complete star chart appeared, it would be something unexpected.
Outside, Wang Teng opened his eyes. He was suddenly shocked. His spiritual power had increased a little!
Enlightenment: 135/3000 (Imperial Realm)
Spirit: 158/3000 (Imperial Realm)
Before he pushed his spiritual power into the crystal skull, his Enlightenment and Spirit were at 134 and 157 points, respectively. That meant that both his attributes had increased by one point after he entered the skull for that short moment.
Wang Teng looked at the crystal skull with his eyes wide open. He took a deep breath.
He was having regrets about his decision. He wanted to steal this crystal skull now. Damn it, it could increase his Spirit and Enlightenment! This was heaven-defying!
If he sent his spiritual power inside for nourishment frequently, his Spirit and Enlightenment would see a steady improvement. Mind you, after his Spirit and Enlightenment had reached the Imperial Realm, he wasn’t able to raise them quickly even by picking up attribute bubbles. After all, there were very few people who had reached a similar realm as him. He didn’t have many attribute bubbles he could pick.
Wang Teng took a deep breath to calm his restless heart. Finally, logic won over desire, and he placed the crystal skull back in its original position. He left silently.
Before he left, he didn’t forget to turn back and look longingly at the crystal skull.
He would be back…
When he returned to the hotel, it was already dawn. He had stayed in the museum the entire night and picked up many Spirit and Enlightenment attributes.
In the room in the hotel, a figure was sitting cross-legged on the bed. This figure looked like Wang Teng. Suddenly, the figure opened his eyes and smiled. “You’re back!”
Another Wang Teng jumped in through the window and nodded. “Thank you.”
The Wang Teng on the bed nodded. It turned into a ball of black smoke and merged into Wang Teng’s body. This was his clone.
Wang Teng was well-prepared, so he was able to run out without any worry of people checking on him.
At this moment, a knock came from the door. Dan Taixuan was standing outside. “Get up for breakfast. Everyone is waiting for you.’
Wang Teng rubbed his face and opened the door. “Let’s go.”
“Look at the huge panda eyes. Where did you go last night?” Dan Taixuan looked at his face and asked curiously.
Ji Xiuming, Luo Cheng, and the others heard Dan Taixuan’s words and looked at Wang Teng involuntarily. Their expressions turned strange.
“Oh, I met a beautiful golden-haired lady yesterday. I toured the streets with her for the entire night.” Wang Teng yawned.
“Continue your fantasy.” Dan Taixuan rolled her eyes. She didn’t believe him.
