Chapter 412: Chapter 181: Gui Yi Dao, Profound Robe King, The Last Treasure Chest (Part 2)

"The one you just killed with a palm strike was the leader of the Red Wolf Adventurer Group."

Guii Yidao pointed to a spot where there wasn’t even a trace left.

"What proof do you have that you’re searching for relics and not ambushing me?"

Yi Tian had seen that the strongest of the Red Race Qi Refiners was the one he killed, never expecting it to be the leader.

Mistaken identity!

"We have a map. According to ancient records, the relics are in the Sunset Mountain Range."

Guii Yidao hurriedly pulled out a map from his pocket.

At this moment, everything else was irrelevant. Guii Yidao knew that preserving his life was paramount.

Legend has it that the Demon Lord is ruthless. Prisoners who fall into his hands either "disappear" forever or are ransomed for a high price.

The Red Wolf Adventurer Group’s elite had all been dispatched, leaving them in a dire situation.

The leader had handed over years of treasures to his son, and as his power increased, it threatened the leader, creating deep conflicts. No one would ransom him.

All of Guii Yidao’s earnings over the years had been used to purchase resources to enhance his strength, leaving nothing to attract the Demon Lord.

"Throw the map over here."

Yi Tian did not approach Guii Yidao. Although this guy had dropped his weapon, his Fighting Mastery was as high as level seven, making him dangerous.

Keeping a certain distance provided room for a counterattack.

He forgot to bring the Lord Contract; otherwise, contracting Guii Yidao would have been a good choice.

Yi Tian caught the map thrown by Guii Yidao and unfolded it.

The map was several meters long. Yi Tian had Liyue and Qixin unfold the entire map and ignited a flame in his hand to examine it carefully.

After verifying with the Celestial Dao Stone, Yi Tian knew it wasn’t a treasure map but just an ordinary map.

"What does this OOXX mean?"

Yi Tian pointed at the map and asked Guii Yidao.

"This map is of the entire Sunset Mountain Range. Those symbols are my speculations and explorations. X marks places we searched and found nothing, and O marks places where treasure might exist. X covering O means our confirmation was overturned." Guii Yidao explained to Yi Tian.

"There’s only one O left here. Does that mean the relic’s location is here? Could it also end up being ⊗?"

Yi Tian asked Guii Yidao again.

"After months of calculation, I’m sure the relic can only be on Spirit Mist Peak."

Guii Yidao said confidently.

Spirit Mist Peak was the last marked place.

"How long will it take to get to Spirit Mist Peak from here?" Yi Tian asked Guii Yidao, as he couldn’t measure the distance from the map.

"At a speed of over 1000, it would take about five to six hours. We can get there by dawn." Guii Yidao replied.

"What kind of powerful being left this relic?" Yi Tian asked one last question.

If it’s above SSS-level, there’s no need to go.

It must be a four-star treasure.

"According to ancient records, it was left by a king named Profound Robe King from tens of thousands of years ago within the Ten Kingdoms Region. It’s said he left a treasure. Our Red Wolf Adventurer Group confirmed after several years of investigation that Profound Robe King’s treasure is in the Sunset Mountain Range. We spent further years of searching in the range to confirm Spirit Mist Peak’s location."

Guii Yidao dared not hide a single detail.

"You lead the way, no tricks. Otherwise, your leader’s fate will be yours!"

After thinking it over, Yi Tian decided to go and have a look.

The Forest Elder was SS-level, and his treasure belonged to the three-star category.

The Profound Robe King was also SS-level, and his treasure was likely a three-star treasure as well.

Guarded by an S-level fierce beast, Yi Tian saw an opportunity.

If Guii Yidao was wrong, it wouldn’t matter; it would only waste a few hours.

"Lord, I, Guii Yidao, have long admired you and am willing to give my all for you!"

At this moment, Guii Yidao knelt halfway and pledged his loyalty to Yi Tian.

He knew that regardless of whether the treasure would be obtained, it wouldn’t end well. The best outcome would be being sold by the Lord.

Or worse, they might be eliminated.

Guii Yidao had specially analyzed Yi Tian.

Yi Tian’s sub-regional area was surrounded by Gold and Silver Tribes.

The Lords were a bunch of weaklings.

Except for the Demon Lord, who was absurdly strong! 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

From Yi Tian’s route of conquest, it was evident that Yi Tian was initially very weak. The Three-Eyed One-Horned Tribe could initially only deploy E-level and D-level.

Then it was D-level and C-level.

After a month, they could deploy B-level.

After more than half a month, they could deploy A-level.

By the third month, Yi Tian could take down S-level opponents.

It was proof the Demon Lord was once very weak, but his advancement speed was too fast.

Like the son of the heavens.

The Lord, even more favored by the heavens!

Guii Yidao was convinced that the forces within the Ten Kingdoms Region absolutely couldn’t kill the Demon Lord.

Rumor has it that the Demon Lord possesses a spirit beast with SSS-level potential. In a few hundred years, it would become a Beast Venerable-level existence.

The Demon Lord was still developing, and it was a time when manpower was needed. Guii Yidao believed that his own ability should gain the Lord’s notice.

Additionally, Guii Yidao was an educated man, well-versed in history, and acquainted with the classics of the Ten Kingdoms Region.

Most of the Red Wolf Adventurer Group’s treasure findings were discovered by him tracing clues back through the classics.

"If I find the treasure, I’ll let you go." Yi Tian smiled with deep implication.

"Lord, you will surely shine in the Ten Kingdoms Region, and I pledge my life to follow you!"

Guii Yidao did not care whether Yi Tian was sincere or smiling like a tiger, as he stood with hands clasped.

From the moment he knew Yi Tian was the Demon Lord, he made up his mind.

He was so stifled with the leader above him in the Red Wolf Adventurer Group. Now, with the leader gone, he could find a Lord capable of dominating the Ten Kingdoms Region, making his life worthwhile.

Yi Tian used the Celestial Dao Stone to probe, and this guy’s loyalty was really 75.

He had never seen anyone with a loyalty score of 75 upon their first encounter.
