The transaction went easy as expected. Since Jin Rou was easy to talk to, things were smooth. Finally, Enchanted had successfully delivered the 600 immortal blood crystals in exchange of the key to the Chaos Box. It was a good trade for the store as they got what they needed.

Ancestor Yule bowed and said, “It’s our pleasure doing business with you, Sir. Please come again next time.”

“There won’t be next time unless your founder see me.” Jin Rou waved his hand in a dismissive manner, “She’s still alive, right?”

Hearing the word ‘she’, the ancestor was surprised, “Sir seems to have a deep knowledge regarding our store.”

It was a confirmation that Jin Rou was speaking the truth. Although they had not specifically said if the founder was alive or not, just by his expression and words were enough to determine it.

In any case, Jin Rou knew that the founder was still alive even after trillions of years. Remember, she created Enchanted and it’s the source of her money and resources. With the store’s success with its defining branches all over the Thousand Realms, it was more than enough to keep her alive.

“Then I’ll be going now.” Jin Rou stood up, “I have finished my business here and it’s time for me to depart.”

“We wish you safe travels.” Broilan bowed also.

After that, Jin Rou left the room without turning back. As much as possible, he didn’t want to go back to this place or even meet her.

“Ancestor, who is that person?” Broilan asked with curiosity. The man was too mysterious to be an average vagabond.

“A taboo topic that shouldn’t be discussed.” Ancestor Yule sighed, “It’s what master told me. I also asked him of the man’s identity and that what he answered.”

“A taboo topic…” Since that’s the case, he dropped it but he couldn’t help but think about it. The clues were leading to one or two persons. But he didn’t dare to say it out loud.

Jin Rou was bypassing several void realms by himself. He was doing it with ease as if he was walking over the water. Realms and places flashed within his eyes as he continued bypassing them. He was going to a certain place that would be of help for him. Since it’s nearby, he decided to get it.

The Luminous Mountain Range was a place created by a mighty cultivator, Luminous Immortal Sovereign. He was one of the strongest and brilliant sovereigns of the first epoch. Currently, there were thirteen epochs that had passed by Thousand Realms. Being at the first epoch, he was already very old and he might have already died. After all, the first epoch happened trillions of years ago.

The mountain range was created by him to be as his final gift to the world. It was said that here he laid all of his resources and treasures. As a loner, he never had a sect or created one.

Unfortunately, no one had yet to see the treasures and whatnot of him. Not to mention a single ancient paragon stone, even a single gold coin wasn’t found here.

It was Jin Rou’s destination. He came here several minutes ago and inspecting the entire surroundings. Eventually, he sighed and said, “It hasn’t changed ever since.”

Luminous Immortal Sovereign created this land in a distant past and it had not changed. It just meant that people had lost hope in finding treasures here. Nevertheless, it was a good thing. It just meant that the things here would be up to Jin Rou’s taking.

The mountains here had a unique smell and color. Everything was colored almost gray, as if it had been withered by time. However, the vigor of things here were filling up the atmosphere creating a comfortable feeling for the newcomers.

Because of this trait, many tried to occupy this mountain range. Despite its lack of resources, just the comfortable atmosphere was enough for sects and lineages to put up a place here.

But the thing was, the mountains were too inhabitable as the land was very thick and hard. It’d be difficult to build a place here and stay for good. Furthermore, not even monsters and animals live here as there were no fruits or whatsoever.

“Alright, Luminous. Time for me to take your treasures.” Jin Rou smirked as he reached the peak of the mountain. He looked down the ground and threw a heavy punch against the ground.

“Boom!” The land shook as it accepted the tenacity of Jin Rou’s punch. Then, it was split in half as if it was a fragile glass.

Bright lights came out from the half and pierced the sky. It created a grand phenomenon which attracted many powerhouses including the five supreme lineages.

“Treasure?” One powerful ancestor was confused. It shouldn’t be the time for it to appear yet it appeared now. Someone was playing with the time and it’s a strong being, “It looke like he’s still alive.”

The ancestor knew many things in the world. Being one of the oldest existences living, he also knew about the certain taboo existence of Thousand Realms.

“Times are changing, if that’s the case.” The ancestor sighed, “The supreme lineages must be smart enough not antagonize him or else they’d experience what happened to previous supreme lineage which suffered total genocide from him.”

As the grand phenomenon was visible to everyone’s eyes, many had assumed it was the emergence of treasures. Thus, many powerhouses set out to take a look. Of course, how could the supreme lineages not be tempted? They also sent out people to take a look in there.

On the other hand, Jin Rou was taking his time. The treasures were already before his eyes yet he was not yet taking it, “It’ll be better if there’s many to stop me. I’m very itching to kill several. This is a brilliant idea.”

With these kinds of treasures and resources, no one would be able to resist temptation. Even Enchanted might participate for the taking. As no one owned this place, everyone was free to take it.

After a few minutes, someone appeared in front of Jin Rou.
