Chapter 400: Chapter 152: Tianlong Treasure House, today I, Chen Chang’an, am here to borrow books! _2
"He then ventured to the furthest reaches of Chaos, gathering materials, and using dragon’s blood and dragon’s bones as a catalyst, he spent roughly a million years forging a large cauldron."
"That cauldron is indeed the bane of all Dragons. As soon as it appears, all the Dragons in Heaven and Earth are weakened by at least thirty percent."
"Hence, that cauldron is named the Dragon Suppression Cauldron!"
"After successfully refining the Dragon Suppression Cauldron, the Cangming Sky Dragon did something that shocked everyone: he suppressed himself inside the cauldron."
"What he sought was only the eternal and boundless realm."
"He seemed to have failed, but he also didn’t completely fail."
"This may be why he has been hailed as a figure comparable to the Prison Suppressing Deity Elephant since the Mythical Era."
While talking, Shen Xuzi turned his gaze to the ancient cauldron at the center of the palace, and said with a sigh:
"If my guess is correct, this cauldron here is probably the Dragon Suppression Cauldron."
"Kid, don’t think about taking this cauldron. I have a feeling that if you take this cauldron, a great terror might happen."
"Although I don’t know what that great terror is, it is something I absolutely do not want to experience."
So warned Shen Xuzi to Chen Chang’an.
He really feared that the young lad would get carried away and loot the cauldron upon seeing wealth.
Not that it was prohibited, but Shen Xuzi had an intuition that if this cauldron was indeed taken away, something horrifying would truly happen.
It’s not an exaggeration!
"When did I ever say I was going to take this cauldron?"
Chen Chang’an said very calmly in reply to Shen Xuzi’s words.
"No?"
"Then why the hell did you come here?"
Upon hearing Chen Chang’an’s words, Shen Xuzi was momentarily baffled.
If it wasn’t for this cauldron, then why did he come here?
It’s important to know that the most valuable thing in the Dragon Tribe’s treasure vault is indeed the Dragon Suppression Cauldron, and many of the treasures inside even reside within the cauldron.
It can be said that the Dragon Suppression Cauldron embodies the treasure vault of the Dragon Clan.
But why did it seem like this lad had no interest in it at all?
Shen Xuzi was really puzzled, he couldn’t figure out what was the real purpose of Chen Chang’an’s visit.
However, Chen Chang’an didn’t respond directly to Shen Xuzi’s question.
Instead, he abruptly approached a corner of the palace, forming a seal with his hand, and yelled:
"Divine Skills forming in diverging ways, myriad Dao resonating in harmony, opening the profound mysteries of Heaven and Earth, Open!"
Crack, crack, crack~!
In an instant, a light door appeared in the originally sealed palace.
Upon seeing this light door, a look of approval crossed Chen Chang’an’s face, who then walked right in without hesitation.
"Kid, wait for this old man!"
Seeing Chen Chang’an stepping into the light door, Shen Xuzi hurriedly followed suit.
Without Chen Chang’an’s presence as a deterrent, he dared not stay in this palace alone.
Moreover, Shen Xuzi was also curious to see what lay beyond the light door, luring Chen Chang’an to bypass the invaluable Dragon Suppression Cauldron and venture into it.
"This is, books?!"
However, upon entering Shen Xuzi was flabbergasted.
Because he found that he had arrived in a room filled with books.
The room was stocked with three or four bookshelves, each densely packed with ancient tomes.
Shen Xuzi could tell that all of these ancient books were ordinary volumes and not any rare secret texts about Divine Skills.
But what puzzled him was that from Chen Chang’an’s current demeanor, it seemed like he was really interested in these books.
"Kid, you can’t be telling me you came all this way just for these books?"
Shen Xuzi looked at Chen Chang’an with confusion.
He recognized some of these books, each having been gathered from various places throughout the Endless Sea by the Cangming Sky Dragon.
But the majority of them were just some odd, albeit rare, records. Despite their rarity, they fell far short when compared to the so-called Divine Skills.
"Is there something wrong with doing it for these books?" Chen Chang’an said with a slight smile, not bothering to offer an explanation.
Ignoring the surprised expression on Shen Xuzi’s face, He walked straight to the bookshelf, and took down each book, storing them in his spatial ring.
It was only after he had gathered all the books carefully and ensured nothing was left behind, that Chen Chang’an took out a golden sheepskin scroll,
Then with his finger acting as a pen, he wrote
"Today, Chen Chang’an borrowed a total of 1135 ancient books. I’m deeply grateful. If they are required in the future, I will return them.".
After finishing writing, Chen Chang’an placed the sheepskin scroll in the most conspicuous place on the bookshelf.
Having done all this, he then turned to Shen Xuzi and said,
"Alright, old man, let’s go."
"Kid, is this a receipt?"
Shen Xuzi was left bewildered by Chen Chang’an’s actions.
You come into a treasure vault, don’t take any treasure, instead grab a few books, and even write a damn receipt?
"You don’t really believe the Cangming Sky Dragon is still alive, do you?" Shen Xuzi finally said.
"He’s dead." Chen Chang’an responded with absolute certainty.
"Then why the hell?" Shen Xuzi couldn’t understand.
"But he might not be."
Shen Xuzi:...
Whether the Cangming Sky Dragon was dead or alive, Chen Chang’an didn’t know. But that didn’t stop him from leaving a receipt.
As the saying goes: Pay back what you borrow and you’ll always be able to borrow again.
