She had been here for many days now and got familiar with the inside and out of the clan's palace.
The Goldenscale Treasury was the largest treasure house of the entire region. Here was stored the most precious treasures the previous ancestors nurtured and found during their youthful years. In fact, the treasury itself was a treasure that had been carefully crafted by the First Poseidon.
No powerhouse could compare to the clan's wealth. After all, they had a legacy for millions of years and even created many Perfect Immortals in the past.
Schwal knew that the treasury couldn't be accessed unless a key to that place was used. And take note, there was only a single key to this place and it couldn't be duplicated.
When Jin Rou and his group entered the Goldenscale Treasury, his companions gaped in amazement as what of they saw.
A large space with golden features all around. It was like a scale of dragon and it was made to be a wallpaper. Then, there were sixteen transparent boxes, each had a heaven-defying treasure that could break the law of the heavens.
Louise couldn't believe what she was seeing. Even their Mortal Disaster Palace had no match with the Clan of Mermaid's treasure house! It was natural. After all, the clan had nurtured many powerful Perfect Immortals that became legendary heroes during their era.
Although the Mortal Disaster Palace had Perfect Immortals too in the past, the glory wasn't that glorious like the Mermaids.
"Please choose 8 treasures of your liking." Lothian took a deep breath and gritted his teeth and said. These sixteen treasures were so precious that he didn't want to part with it if it's possible. After all, it wasn't his to begin with!
Jin Rou smiled and walked over to the treasures. He observed each of them with a normal expression. It seemed that he wasn't that impressed of the treasures here. Anyway, since the Mermaids were generous, he would not be polite.
"Not bad treasures." Jin Rou nodded. He had to admit that these treasures could help cultivators in their path easier.
Lothian almost choked from the words. These treasures were all law-breaking types that could make the whole world crazy. But it only received a 'not bad' praise from the other party?
Nevertheless, he didn't say anything. He might as well shut his mouth and accept the grievance.
After a few minutes of picking, Jin Rou finally decided the eight items he wanted. Lothian carefully put them into the storage ring and gave it to Jin Rou without hesitating. He even put the promised immortal amulet that
"You are quite determined." Jin Rou smirked. He naturally selected treasures much worthier than the other. And for sure, the poseidon was also aware of this. Despite that, he didn't say anything and accepted what Jin Rou chose.
"Since I said that I will let you choose eight items, whatever you choose shall I accept. After all, I haven't given restrictions to what is being offered." Lothian calmly said. He wouldn't be a sinner by saving his clan this way. In fact, the ancestors might thank him for this. Take note, the enemy this time was a monster that not even the souls of their predecessors could save them!
It was a worthy bargain, to be exact.
"Alright, I won't make it hard for you." Jin Rou answered. Although he couldn't wreck havoc due to the poseidon's decisiveness, he earned a lot of fortune today. If he sell it to other powerhouses, they might be willing to empty their troves to purchase even of the precious treasures Jin Rou selected.
"And since you are very decisive, let me assist you in one thing." Jin Rou paused for a moment and handed over a cube filled with his pure qi, "This is something that can help that person in the deepest ground to recuperate from her wounds. Although it might take some time before she heal, at least her life won't be in danger."
Lothian was stupefied. The other party even knew this?! He wryly smiled and spoke, "It seems that there is no secret that can be kept when you're here."
His respect for the other party soared greatly. This was the first time he started to respect a human. He was thought that humans were despicable beings that'd be driven by greed if given a chance. They were a race that beyond saving, as to they assumed.
But the world was truly vast. There were types of humans that varied differently from each other.
"Thank you for this." Lothian bowed for the first time. This cube could help his mother, the previous poseidress, to stay alive longer. His mother was the only Perfect Immortal alive, so they couldn't afford to lose her.
That's why the clan drained their resources to keep her alive. Only a very few knew the real situation of the previous poseidress, afraid that their enemies would use this chance to attack them.
"You are worthy to be in that position." Jin Rou smiled and said, "Your mother has thought you well, so I don't mind helping the great person who raised you."
With Jin Rou's intellect and capabilities, he could easily connect the dots which amazed Lothian more.
"But I advise you to give your son a piece of your mind. He thinks that just because he is part of the Clan of Mermaids, he can push his weight around." Jin Rou gave a friendly warning. Who knows, Fliv might encounter someone who wasn't as patient as Jin Rou.
Lothian nodded. He finally knew that there were monsters that even their family couldn't afford to offend. He had to be careful from now on.
Seeing the expression of Lothian, Jin Rou smiled and nodded in satisfaction. He was feeling a bit guilty of robbing them at the high day. Nevertheless, the clan didn't lose out in this deal. After all, their Perfect Immortal would be saved.
Jin Rou and his group left the Deep Sea in private. There was a certain place that he wanted to visit since he was already here in Upper Immortal.
The most vast region and strongest region of all three, the Wind Region.
