Chapter 336: I Want to Cut Open Your Brain

The sun was rising, and the morning glow filled the sky.

A youth in white came from the Sea of All Realms and entered the Yuan Realm.

"Huh?"

The youth in white’s gaze was first attracted by the Everlasting City of Desolation; he looked surprised and murmured, "It’s that legendary city…"

Seeing the Everlasting City of Desolation, a ripple appeared in the youth in white’s eyes, but he quickly withdrew his gaze, and his vast Divine Sense covered half of the Yuan Realm.

He had come for Heaven’s Secret Pavilion.

A moment later, the youth in white locked onto Heaven’s Secret Pavilion’s location and casually walked towards Linglong City as if in a leisurely stroll.

With each step he took, he traversed thousands of miles, and after three steps, he arrived at Linglong City.

"Secret Realm Ranking?"

The youth in white’s eyes fell on the golden divine monument, and his lips curled slightly, "Indeed, there is some skill here; they can even deduce the locations of the Place of Origin, Pangu’s Daoist Temple, and Nuwa’s Daoist Temple."

"What’s that again?"

The youth in white looked towards the Talented Individuals and Rare Treasures List; his Divine Sense probed the golden list, but he learned that he must spend one hundred Star Yuan to see the information on the golden list.

"Star Yuan?"

The youth in white had no concept of Star Yuan currency.

"Come here."

The youth in white looked coldly at an emperor realm cultivator who was buying information from the golden list.

"Daoist friend, who are you? What’s the matter?"

That emperor realm cultivator couldn’t see through the youth in white’s cultivation level, didn’t dare to be insolent, and asked with a smile.

"Give me one hundred Star Yuan."

The youth in white said.

This Great Emperor frowned, "Daoist friend, I have no relation to you, why should I give you one hundred Star Yuan?"

The person in front of him was indeed a strange person.

How could he not even have one hundred Star Yuan to see the secrets of the Talented Individuals and Rare Treasures List?

Moreover, he was a Great Emperor, not some ordinary minion.

Whoosh!

The youth in white stretched out his fingers, lightly sealing the cultivation level of this Great Emperor. The next second, the Great Emperor was completely terrified and hurriedly begged, "Senior, don’t act, I’ll give it to you right now."

He immediately took out his Qian Kun Ring, handed it to the youth in white, then took out a Star Yuan coin with a denomination of one hundred, and said: "Senior, this is one hundred Star Yuan, it’s the currency uniformly issued by Heaven’s Secret Pavilion in the Yuan Realm."

The youth in white held the Star Yuan coin between two fingers, and the force enveloping the Great Emperor slowly dispersed.

"Thank you, senior, for showing mercy."

The Great Emperor’s spirit was still unsettled, and he repeatedly bowed in thanks.

He was filled with confusion, wondering where this savage came from, his strength incredibly strong, yet he didn’t even have one hundred Star Yuan and had to resort to robbery!

Thinking of this, he felt deep bitterness and anger.

He was truly unlucky.

The youth in white flicked his finger, and the one hundred Star Yuan entered the space of the golden list. Instantly, his Divine Sense connected to the golden list and saw various rare treasures and talented individuals.

"Besides the nine great Spirit Roots, everything is garbage."

The youth in white said lightly.

Upon hearing this, the Great Emperor widened his eyes in shock. What on earth was this barbarian’s background?

One must understand, the Talented Individuals and Rare Treasures List cataloged the supreme treasures across all realms, nearly all of them innate supreme treasures. Yet this person actually called innate supreme treasures… trash?

"That master of Heaven’s Secret Pavilion… just how is his brain wired? How can he possibly know so much?" A peculiar smile curled on the white-robed youth’s lips. "I really want to cut it open and have a look."

As he spoke, the white-robed youth strode toward Heaven’s Secret Pavilion.

"Madman… a madman!"

The Great Emperor paled in terror. How could such an outrageously reckless lunatic exist, daring to plot against the master of Heaven’s Secret Pavilion?

The white-robed youth arrived at Heaven’s Secret Pavilion.

His gaze was instantly captured by the edifice. "Incredible," he marveled, clicking his tongue. "Who’d have thought a space capable of shielding heavenly mysteries, existing outside the Heavenly Dao itself, would appear right here in the mortal world’s bustling market? Utterly fascinating."

He recognized the pavilion’s profound mystery at a glance.

Stepping inside, he found Ye Xu conducting business.

The clients were two Immortal Kings.

Sensing the white-robed youth’s arrival, Ye Xu faintly frowned but smiled. "Please wait a moment, Daoist friend. I’m still discussing business with these two fellow Daoists."

"Fine."

The white-robed youth replied casually, feeling not the slightest bit out of place, as if he owned the place, and began ambling leisurely around Heaven’s Secret Pavilion.

"Gentlemen, you need to pay nine billion Star Yuan," Ye Xu said with a smile.

"No problem."

The two had come prepared. Hearing Ye Xu’s price, they promptly produced an assortment of treasures.

"System. Exchange."

Ding! Congratulations, Host. You have acquired ninety-two billion heavenly secrets points.

"Search it. Now."

In an instant, seventy-six billion Star Yuan were deducted.

Seconds later, information about the innate supreme treasures flooded Ye Xu’s mind.

These were the two lowest-ranked innate supreme treasures.

Of course, for Immortal Kings, they remained peerless rarities.

"Fellow Daoists. Here is the information you sought on the innate supreme treasures."

Ye Xu retrieved two jade slips, handing one to each Immortal King.

Since the Talented Individuals and Rare Treasures List appeared, this was already his third trade involving it.

"Our thanks, Master."

The two Immortal Kings bowed respectfully.

"May both of you fulfill your desires," Ye Xu said, smiling.

"Then we humbly accept your auspicious blessing, Master. Until next time! Ha…"

Laughing heartily, the two Immortal Kings took their leave.

The white-robed youth continued his idle stroll.

He commented pointedly, "Establishing an otherworldly sanctuary beneath the Heavenly Dao… how utterly carefree your life must be, Master."

"You flatter me, Daoist friend."

Ye Xu looked at the white-robed youth and laughed, "I never expected the esteemed Witch Ancestor to visit such a humble place. It truly adds radiance to Heaven’s Secret Pavilion."

Hearing Ye Xu reveal his identity with a single sentence, Mad Daoist wasn’t surprised.

After all, it was only through Ye Xu’s guidance that Qi Yuanchu had found his whereabouts in the Return to the Ruins.

Initially, Mad Daoist had found it strange. He had shielded himself from heavenly secrets; even the Heavenly Son could barely sense his location. But he hadn’t anticipated that anyone could calculate his precise position.

Understand that the Heavenly Son bore the Heavenly Dao, embodying the Heavenly Dao’s will.

If Ye Xu could deduce his whereabouts, didn’t that mean Ye Xu was also at that level?

Today, upon arriving and seeing Heaven’s Secret Pavilion, Mad Daoist’s doubts vanished completely.

In a place detached from the ordinary world, any event that defied reason was only natural.

Ye Xu brewed tea peacefully without taking the initiative to speak.

Mad Daoist was devoted to the Dao, obsessed with the transcendent realm, so his purpose in coming to Heaven’s Secret Pavilion was almost self-evident.

Thus, Ye Xu remained patient.

"Master, are you not from this universe?" Mad Daoist walked to the table and sat down, his gaze profound and face without a trace of strange light, speaking in a perfectly calm tone.

Ye Xu poured a cup of tea for Mad Daoist and laughed, "Daoist friend, in my Heaven’s Secret Pavilion, you must pay for an answer to a question."

"I have no money."

Mad Daoist shook his head and said.

"Then I’m afraid I can’t help," Ye Xu said, spreading his hands.

"You can be of assistance."

Mad Daoist’s eyes revealed madness, as if staring at a piece of artwork, fixed on Ye Xu’s head. He murmured softly, "Master, I have an unreasonable request."

Ye Xu felt unnerved by his stare.

Still, he wasn’t afraid; after all, in Heaven’s Secret Pavilion, no one could harm him.

"Speak," Ye Xu said.

"Could you let me perform an autopsy on you?" Mad Daoist’s eyes were entranced. "I want to see how a person’s brain can hold so much information?"

"…"

Ye Xu’s veins faintly stood out as he barely suppressed the urge to chop Mad Daoist dead with a slash.

Indeed, Mad Daoist was a complete lunatic.

His desire to dissect him followed the same logic as dissecting those savage beasts and cultivators.

He simply sought to confirm his own suspicion.

"Daoist friend, after reincarnating thousands of times, have you grown weary of living so long?"

Ye Xu radiated signs of danger.

Boom!

He summoned the power of Heaven’s Secret Pavilion; in a flash, all doctrines and rules vanished, Mad Daoist’s entire magic power dissolved into nothing, and he instantly became an ordinary person.
