Especially considering the fact that her combat power had greatly decreased after sustaining severe injuries. Even with the healing pills, it would take several hours to fully recover to her peak state.During this period, she could not afford any more injuries. Otherwise, it would only worsen her condition and potentially risk foundational damage.Callie felt a sense of urgency at the thought of the potential pursuers. She was well aware that with her injuries, even if she managed to escape, the Burke disciples would likely catch up soon. Thus, the only viable option was to travel with Severin to ensure her safety.'Ugh, this treasure map is more like a curse than a stroke of good luck!' thought Callie.After pondering for a few moments, she made a decision."You guessed it right. The reason why the Burkes were after me is because they wanted the treasure map I have on me," said Callie bitterly. She slowly recounted how she accidentally acquired the treasure map from a corpse o
The map was drawn on some unknown beast skin, and perhaps due to its age, it bore traces of yellowing.Severin reached out, caught the flying map, and carefully examined it.The front side featured a starry sky route, with the final destination near a radiant planet. On the reverse side, there was a passage written by someone named 'Troy Burke.'The passage described how Troy, several hundred years ago, accidentally discovered Lumigold deep within the Starry Sky Battlespace. At that time, the emergence of the Lumigold caused a sensation throughout the Starry Sky Battlespace, causing all the prodigies within to battle each other for it.The owner of the treasure map ultimately obtained Lumigold with his superior combat power. He managed to escape from the prodigies' pursuit, only to succumb to severe injuries on a giant star.Before his passing, Troy drew the location where he buried Lumigold on the map. At the same time, he applied a restriction to it. A notification would immedia
Severin's figure then turned into a streak of light as he vanished from where he was. Shortly after Severin's part left, a contingent clad in the Burkes attire showed up out of blue on the battleground where remnants of the spatial rifts lingered. The group numbered more than ten individuals, each exuding an aura as forceful as the towering mountains, with nearly all being level three or level four paragons.Particularly noteworthy was the young man leading them. The atmosphere surrounding him rivaled the expanse of a sea of clouds. The aura of his perfect-stage level five paragon attainment obliterated the residual elements in the surrounding battlefield.Clad in a resplendent black robe with golden silk-like threads forming cloud-like patterns, he donned a purplish-gold boots and possessed a rather dashing handsomeness. Those who laid eyes upon him would feel that his countenance resembled that of royalty. At that moment, however, he had a gloomy and downcast expression.When his
Deep in the Starry Sky Battlespace, two streaks of light streaked across the sky like a comet, surrounded by countless shimmering stars.More than half an hour had passed since Severin and Callie set off from the battlefield. During that time frame, they flew at full speed and covered a distance of several thousand miles. At long last, a bright planet gradually appeared not too far away.Severin gazed at the twinkling star before him and took out the treasure map to examine it carefully. After a few seconds, he joyfully informed Callie, "This should be the place marked on the treasure map."Callie winced a little when she heard that, despite initially brimming with. Though the treasure map was in Severin's possession, their cooperation required them to share the rewards reaped. Staying alive was far more important than obtaining the Lumigold, and the Burkes were hot on their heels in pursuit of them. If Callie were alone, obtaining the Lumigold marked on the treasure map might hav
Severin and Callie arrived at the canyon in a matter of seconds. Before them was a cavern roughly the size of a small mountain. Its surface was covered in a layer of blue ripples that obscured Severin's divine senses.Judging from the aura emanating from the restriction, Severin deduced that the Burkes' practitioner who set it up could not have been more than level eight paragon. Practitioners at such a level had begun comprehending the power of heaven and earth, wielding control over the rules of space. Though not as formidable as royal paragons, they could manipulate the void and navigate the through the black holes.However, their comprehension of the power of heaven and earth are still rudimentary, and any form of restriction or divine technique would still have to depend on their power.Severin could not figure out if it was possible to devise a strategy that could break the restriction, so he had to resort to sheer force as a temporary solution. Turning to Callie, he instructe
As the Burkes traced the aura through the starry sky, they soon witnessed the sudden unfolding of an extraordinary celestial display. They were overwhelmed with astonishment as they realized the phenomenon heralded the birth of Lumigold. Gerry, the leader, looked even more agitated at that moment, not out of concern that Severin and his party might arrive first, but because he feared that the celestial spectacle would draw the attention of other prodigies.Haunted by past experiences where the Burkes's past generation of disciples had perished while competing for Lumigold against other prodigies, he shouted, "Quick! We need to secure the Lumigold before other people do!"A sense of urgency swept across them as they released their spiritual power and raced toward the phenomenon in the sky. After Severin crossed the threshold of the restricted area, he discovered a vast cave that had been seemingly hand-carved and furnished with stone benches and tables. The cave, though not expansive,
For the record, eighth-grade herbs are treasured by royal paragons for crafting eighth-grade pills! Callie's awe was a natural reaction. The energy contained in those three red fruits could enable Severin to make a breakthrough to level four or even level five paragon without any side effects. When refined into a pill, it could become the Paragonhood Pill, which was crucial for level nine paragons attempting to break through to royal paragon, as the success rate would be increased by thirty percent! The significance of such a boost was immense, even for practitioners at level nine paragon.Despite that thirty percent increase however, the barrier of the royal paragon still eluded many people, and countless practitioners remained in a perpetual state of stagnation throughout their lives. As a result, a thirty percent increase in success rate was considered to be very valuable already. Even Severin, who was well-versed in the intricacies of spiritual treasures, could not conceal his ecs
After observing Callie placing her items for safekeeping, Severin did the same and placed three red fruits within a box before putting it away in his bag. Severin's gaze lingered on the spatial ring as he put everything away, and his glee was evident from his smile.His foray into the Starry Sky Battlespace had yielded some metal Uru, followed by the absorption of Lunar Dew which elevating his attainment to perfect-stage level three attainment. Subsequently, he acquired eight-grade herbs such as the Silver Moon Grass. Finally, he stumbled upon a fist-sized chunk of Lumigold along with three eight-grade Ruby Spiritual Fruits!Severin harbored confidence in using the two eighth-grade pills to propel him to the realm of the royal paragon within five years. The fist-sized Lumigold, when combined with Sky-Soil Zenith, might well elevate Severin's elite-quality spiritual treasure into a divine protective weapon.Divine protective weapons were rare items. Only supreme paragons or sects in
