# Chapter 1302: The Treasure Left by Jade Emperor
"Ten Thousand Things Scripture!" When Lin Feng's divine consciousness withdrew from the golden book, a faint hint of surprise flickered in his deep pupils. In terms of the breadth and power of this ancient scripture, it was an Emperor Scripture.
"It should be the cultivation technique Xi Emperor practiced. That means this page of golden book belongs to Xi Emperor. Then the other page sealing the Three Lives Scripture, made of the same material, also belongs to Xi Emperor!" Lin Feng deduced in his heart. This undoubtedly proved what Yan Di had said before — Xi Emperor possessed the Three Lives Scripture.
Yan Di had robbed Xi Emperor's tomb, targeting the Three Lives Scripture. However, later, when the Nine Nether Demon Emperor's Small World was buried together with Xi Emperor, Yan Di wanted one more thing — the Nine Nether Demon Lotus.
But now it seemed Yan Di was clearly more interested in the Nine Nether Demon Lotus. Lin Feng could tell that Yan Di was also racing against time, cultivating madly, using his blazing flames to continuously improve himself.
"Perhaps Yan Di wants revenge!" Lin Feng speculated inwardly. Having been blasted until his soul scattered, with only a wisp of remnant soul surviving in the world, and then sealed within a cursed scroll Small World, Yan Di was already fortunate to have this second life. He clearly harbored immense hatred toward the one who killed and sealed him.
Yet Lin Feng vaguely felt that Yan Di's desire for revenge was as difficult as ascending to heaven. The person who could kill him, a Great Emperor, and a thousand years had passed since then — how powerful that person had become was unimaginable.
"The Ten Thousand Things Scripture is a path of cultivation, but it's not suitable for me. Perhaps Yuexin would be more fitting!" Lin Feng smiled slightly and put away the Ten Thousand Things Scripture. This Emperor Scripture could serve as a reference for his cultivation and would be quite helpful.
With a thought, a heart appeared in Lin Feng's hand. He waved his hand, and the heart flew forward, transforming into a vast palace that landed on the ground — it was the Jade Emperor Palace. Now was the time to go in and take a look.
Following the dragon-shaped entrance into the Jade Emperor Palace, he immediately sensed many icy gazes shooting toward him, as if strands of cold killing intent permeated the void.
These people sat cross-legged, having been guarding this exit, hoping that one day they could leave instead of being imprisoned in this luxurious Martial Emperor Palace. Once, they had been crazy to enter this place, but now they were going mad trying to leave.
"Lin Feng!" Voices like those from hell rang out. Everyone stood up, their eyes terrifying, like wild beasts, as if they wanted to devour Lin Feng.
Lin Feng had finally come in again!
Lin Feng calmly glanced at the crowd. Most of these people were unfamiliar to him, with only a few familiar faces. Back when they came out of the Jade Emperor Secret Realm, this group had pressured him to hand over treasures. With no other choice, he had used the Jade Emperor's heart to transform into a palace, luring them inside, then closed the palace, trapping them within.
Raising his foot, Lin Feng stepped forward, his expression calm without the slightest ripple. When these people were trapped, some were at the peak of Heavenly Martial Realm, but perhaps being unable to cultivate peacefully inside, none had reached the Venerable Martial Realm by now. To him, they posed no threat at all.
"Kill!" A furious shout rang out, and immediately several figures attacked Lin Feng, their auras surging. But now, could these Heavenly Martial Realm cultivators from the Qian Domain forces still harm him in any way?
Golden dragon claws, black flames, and vast imperial qi all struck Lin Feng's body together, lifting his long hair. However, their expressions suddenly froze, because they felt as if they weren't striking flesh and blood, but an indestructible Venerable body — an unshakable, majestic form.
Lin Feng looked at the few people attacking him, his calm eyes showing not even the slightest ripple. This was disregard — they were no longer on the same level.
"Boom crack!" Terrifying purple lightning suddenly burst forth, striking the crowd attacking Lin Feng. The fearsome lightning essence directly blasted their souls apart, as if scorching them. Then, strands of flame ignited, burning their bodies. As the wind swept past, only a few scorched marks remained on the ground, nothing else.
"Gulp!" The crowd swallowed saliva, the muscles on their faces seeming to twitch. Their pale complexions were like those of the dead. Was Lin Feng already this terrifying? If so, what hope did they have of leaving this damned palace?
"No hope!" In the silent space, faint footsteps could be heard, along with heavy breathing. As Lin Feng walked forward, the crowd involuntarily made way. Whether it was the terrifying purple lightning or the flames that burned everything, either could kill them instantly.
During the days they had been trapped in this Jade Emperor Palace, Lin Feng was no longer the Lin Feng of the past!
"Train well. Don't think about leaving every day. Perhaps when someone steps into the Venerable Martial Realm, I'll consider letting them out!" Lin Feng's indifferent voice came, causing the crowd's expressions to stiffen. Stepping into the Venerable Martial Realm — easier said than done. Yet they seemed to have no other choice!
Lin Feng continued forward. Before long, he crossed that shore path and arrived at the palace corridor. On the left and right were golden palaces with closed doors, while the central palace ahead was where the Jade Emperor's physical body had once been. However, it seemed the palace doors had been blasted open with gaps. The Jade Emperor had offended the Demon Emperor, and so, a dignified Martial Emperor had died within his own Small World!
Moreover, the Jade Emperor himself knew that offending the Demon Emperor would lead to his death. Thus, he had set everything up, hoping that the Jade Heaven Royal Clan would find the palace and obtain everything he had. Little did he expect that the Demon Emperor would leave words on the palace stone walls, demanding that his heart be gouged out, preventing the Jade Emperor from finding peace even in death.
Lin Feng stopped, looking at a palace on his left. Suddenly, terrifying sword qi erupted from his body, like streaks of flowing light, extremely dazzling.
"Break!" Lin Feng stepped forward, and rumbling sounds rolled out. The palace doors shattered and split apart, torn and destroyed by the sword qi.
"The attack these palace doors can withstand is exactly what an ordinary Venerable can achieve. It seems the Jade Emperor did this deliberately. Otherwise, if his descendants couldn't open them, what use would they be?" Lin Feng thought to himself, then stepped inside. Inside were bookshelves. Walking over, Lin Feng casually flipped through them. They were all cultivation techniques, seemingly suitable for various types of martial artists — very comprehensive. These techniques were suitable for those below the Venerable Martial Realm. Once one crossed into the Venerable Martial Realm, they were no longer appropriate.
"The Jade Emperor truly cared for his descendants!" Lin Feng smiled, then walked to the right. Sword qi raged again, breaking open another palace door. Inside was a weapon storage, but they weren't powerful weapons — all were Heavenly Artifacts, similarly prepared for those below the Heavenly Martial Realm. These were all the Jade Emperor's collections. In daily life, he probably threw them into a corner without a second glance, but before his death, he had organized them.
Lin Feng walked out of this palace and then successively broke open other palace doors. The difficulty increased gradually, and the treasures inside became better. In one palace room were Will Crystals, then Essence Crystals, followed by Arcane Fragments, then various Sacred Artifacts, and even better techniques suitable for Venerable Martial Realm cultivators.
Walking out of the palace again, Lin Feng cursed inwardly. This Jade Emperor fellow had paved the way for his descendants. If they obtained all this, the Jade Heaven Royal Clan would have no trouble dominating the Qian Domain — it would just take some time. But then again, this was a Martial Emperor's collection, so it made sense.
"With this treasure trove, I think I won't need to worry about the Cloud Sea Sect's growth at all. As long as I manage it properly, there's no difficulty in developing the Cloud Sea Sect into the overlord of the Snow Domain!" Lin Feng smiled. As for this treasure trove, nothing had yet truly excited him personally. However, there were still three palace doors he hadn't broken open.
"Boom!" A terrifying explosion suddenly echoed through the palace. Lin Feng broke open the third-to-last palace door. This door could withstand attacks at the Fourth Layer of Sovereign Martial Realm, and Lin Feng had to use considerable power to break it.
"Sacred Mark Divine Ability Techniques!" Lin Feng stepped into the palace and saw the Sacred Mark patterns carved on the walls. A faint smile appeared on his face. He had studied the patterns he copied when entering the secret realm and had already glimpsed the path of Sacred Marks. He could tell at a glance that the vast walls were carved with Sacred Mark attack techniques.
"I'm looking forward to it!" Lin Feng smiled. At this moment, he was indeed looking forward to what lay behind the last two palace doors.
Supreme Sacred Artifacts, the Jade Emperor's Imperial Artifact, and his Emperor Scripture — were they all inside?
However, this time Lin Feng failed. Even using his strongest attacks, he still couldn't break open the last two doors. This made Lin Feng understand that the Jade Emperor had clearly considered that his descendants, after obtaining his treasures, might not know restraint and attract too much attention. Therefore, he hoped they would be down-to-earth, advancing step by step. Only when they reached a certain level of strength would they be qualified to break open a door.
But the Jade Emperor's plan was perfect — until the Demon Emperor changed everything. The authority to obtain this entire palace was no longer as the Jade Emperor had left for his descendants. The Demon Emperor had tampered with it. Gouging out his heart was the way to obtain this palace. Perhaps this meant that this Small World was inseparably connected to the Jade Emperor's heart. How else could a Martial Emperor have the ability to refine his own Small World?
"Should I ask Yan Di to help?" Lin Feng thought, but then abandoned the idea. The Jade Emperor's actions had their reasoning, and Lin Feng was willing to abide by the Jade Emperor's rules. When he reached a certain level of strength, he would come back to break open those last two doors and obtain what he wanted!
