Chapter 5663: Changes in the Imperial Treasury

"Could it be that everything they said was a lie? But how is that possible..."

"Based on my understanding of Wen Ping, he would never joke about such a thing."

Lan Yun said this with a grim expression. Unconvinced, he walked forward and punched the stone wall with all his might.

There was a loud bang, and a big hole was smashed into the huge stone wall by a punch.

But apart from this, nothing unusual happened, and behind the stone wallpaper was just the stone wall of the mountain.

"General Lan, don't be discouraged. Perhaps this matter is not that simple."

"What the other generals of the Sea Clan said might not be false. After they entered the cave, the situation might not be the same as what you saw, General Lan."

Seeing Lan Yun falling into a state of doubt about his life, Zhang Yifeng spoke in a calm voice.

Compared to Lan Yun's panic, Zhang Yifeng seemed much calmer.

Even though what he saw was the same as what happened, Zhang Yifeng's experience allowed him to remain calm in this situation.

The descriptions of other members of the sea tribe may not be false, and there is no need for them to lie about such things.

If that is the case, there is only one possibility, that the space inside this cave is separated.

Once you enter the cave, you will be identified in some way and assigned to two different spaces.

And since this is where the treasures of the Immortal Emperor are stored, the method of distinguishing them is obvious.

Thinking of this, a gleam of light flashed in Zhang Yifeng's eyes, and with a flash of golden light in his palm, the key to the imperial treasury kept by the Lei family appeared in his palm.

At the moment when the treasure key appeared, the originally clean stone wall in front of the four people suddenly began to distort.

A heavy stone door slowly appeared in the four people's field of vision. It was exactly the same as the stone door that had previously sealed the cave, and there was also a key socket on it.

"This, this is?!"

Lan Yun looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. In his understanding, this cave was the Emperor's Treasury.

After all, Wen Ping successfully brought the treasures out of the cave after going through many trials and tribulations.

This cave contains a large number of immortal stones and elixirs used for cultivation, which provide considerable help to the sea clan who are already accumulating strength.

It is for this reason that the sea people, including Lan Yun, designated this place as the imperial treasury that they need to protect for generations.

But only now did he realize that there was actually a stone door in the cave.

"It seems that this Immortal Emperor Senior has done a good job of keeping the secret. Even the Sea Clan, who also keep the key to the Emperor's Treasury, didn't know that there were other guardians of the key."

Zhang Yifeng said with surprise when he saw this.

He originally thought that the Sea Clan was just like the Lei Family and was also aware of the other party's existence.

But looking at Lan Yun's expression, it was clear that he was not aware of this matter.

Of course, it might also be because the people in the sea clan who knew about this died in the great battle between the sea clan and the invaders.

"What? There are other guardians of the North Sea's Imperial Library?"

Lan Yun looked at Zhang Yifeng in astonishment, and then learned from Xuanyuan Li what had happened in Beihai City in recent days.

When Lan Yun heard that Lei Ao, whose entire family was wiped out, was actually the only remaining heir of another group of guardians, he fell silent for a while.

"Alas, I really don't know whether guarding this imperial treasury is a blessing or a curse."

Shaking his head, Lan Yun said with a somewhat depressed look.

The catastrophic disaster that befell the sea clan was also initially intended to better protect the imperial treasury.

The Lei family was destroyed because the identity of the guardian was known to others, which led to this tragic incident.

To sum up, it is not difficult to find that all of this cannot be avoided without seeing the imperial treasury in front of us.

"I can only say that fate plays tricks on me."

"But since we have come this far and have no way out, let's find out what's inside the Emperor's Treasury and see if it's worth spending the lives of the Sea Clan and the Lei Family to protect it."

Zhang Yifeng also nodded and said in a deep voice that what Lan Yun said was not without reason. The cause of the chaos between the Sea Clan and the Lei Family was this imperial treasury.

Walking up to the stone door in front of him, Zhang Yifeng inserted the key in his hand into the socket.

As the treasure key was embedded in the stone door, a colorful light suddenly lit up and the stone door gradually opened.

However, when the stone door opened, the first thing that came into view was darkness.

Then a strong evil energy suddenly rushed towards the four people from behind the door, and a figure in the darkness rushed towards Zhang Yifeng like a ghost.

"Ok?"

Zhang Yifeng exclaimed in surprise, and felt the same aura from this figure as those black-scaled monsters.

Sure enough, when the figure rushed out of the stone gate, what appeared before the four people was an even more muscular black-scaled monster.

"Ho!"

The black-scaled monster let out a shrill roar and rushed straight towards Zhang Yifeng, ready to bite him.

"This monster actually appeared in the Imperial Treasury. Sure enough, those black-scaled monsters outside are closely related to this Imperial Treasury."

Zhang Yifeng said coldly, and then an invisible sword energy flew out from his fingertips, instantly strangling the black-scaled monster that was rushing towards him to death on the spot.

The chaotic sword energy directly tore the black-scaled monster into countless pieces of flesh, leaving it with no possibility of regeneration.

Looking at the pieces of blood and flesh on the ground, Zhang Yifeng's expression gradually became gloomy.

He now even suspected that this Imperial Treasury might just be a cover, and that someone was deliberately luring others here to die.

But the most important thing is that there are only these monsters in the imperial library.

Wouldn’t the sacrifices of the Sea Clan and the Lei Family be in vain?

However, Zhang Yifeng quickly put this idea behind him. No matter what, the young supreme who was still in his true form had been eyeing the treasures in the emperor's treasury for a long time.

Since the other party has made so many arrangements just to obtain the treasures in the imperial treasury, this place cannot be fake.

As for the trap set for Zhang Yifeng, that was even more impossible.

The other party had no idea that he would come here. Moreover, if he wanted to set a trap for Zhang Yifeng, he would need to bribe Lu Shuang in advance.

Even though Lu Shuang and Zhang Yifeng are getting along extremely well now, they can be described as brothers.

But Lu Shuang's identity is still the unparalleled scholar, one of the nine young supremes, and no one among the young supremes can order him around.

Zhang Yifeng also believed that Lu Shuang would not let him make a wasted trip.

Even though there may be some changes in the imperial treasury, there must be something he needs.

"Mr. Zhang, there's something wrong with the black fog in this imperial storehouse!"

"This black fog is very similar to the fog in the Shadow Sea, but it obviously weakens the vision much more than the Shadow Sea. Even I can only barely see the range within ten steps."

Lan Yun finally came back to his senses from his astonishment. He did not have time to think about why the black-scaled monster rushed out of the imperial treasury, and spoke to Zhang Yifeng in a hurry.

With his ability as a sea tribe member, he can still only see within ten steps.

If Zhang Yifeng and the other two were to go in with him, it would be very difficult for them to keep up with his pace.

"The arrow has been put on the string and has to be shot. General Lan, we can only ask you to come with us."
