Ancient Vault Candidates

Chen Ling carefully calculated in his heart. Of course, these three Dao Base Shards couldn’t truly be considered a difficult task… The trickiest part lay in the fact that the Dao Base Shards of those four Lost Ancient Vaults also needed to be collected.

Although the Lost Ancient Vaults had already declined in this era, they themselves also carried the civilizational history of humanity. If any one of them was missing, the save world would not be complete.

When finally Rebooting the World, not a single one of the Eighteen Divine Paths could be missing.

“This is troublesome now.” Chen Ling looked thoughtful.

He sat down cross-legged in front of the offering table, and his Thought Invasion silently activated. His consciousness transformed into a storm, crossing spatial boundaries and sweeping through the vast sea of humanity, rapidly connecting with two consciousnesses in the void.

At the same time,

The Ancient Vault of the Courtesan Path.

A gentle breeze brushed past the placid surface of the lake.

Their consciousnesses were drawn by some power. The scene before their eyes flowed between reality and thoughts. Ripples undulated on the surface of the lake, as the thoughts of a certain existence were descending here…

A moment later, a phantom-like figure in a red-based, black-patterned Theatrical Robe appeared on the surface of the lake.

“Red King, My Lord.”

Liu Qingyan immediately bowed in greeting.

Previously, while in the Spirit Void Domain, Chen Ling did not let Liu Qingyan follow. After all, her strength was far from reaching Rank 8. If some conflict occurred in the Spirit Void Domain, it might actually be detrimental. Therefore, she had been staying together with the Grey King during this period.

Chen Ling nodded slightly, then directly cut to the chase:

“Reversing the Era is imminent, but we are still missing seven shards of the Eighteen Divine Paths… especially the four Lost Ancient Vaults, we don’t even have a single shard.”

The Grey King didn’t seem surprised about this matter. After all, most of these things were handled through her hands previously. After pondering for a moment, she answered:

“Actually, among the shards of the four Lost Ancient Vaults, we already have one.”

“…What?” Chen Ling was startled, “Which Ancient Vault?”

The Grey King slowly spat out four words:

“Ancient Vault of the Heavenly Path.”

Chen Ling’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, “Ancient Vault of the Heavenly Path… but I didn’t find the shard of this Ancient Vault in The Ancestral Shrine.”

“The Spirit Tablet of the First Generation Red King is cast from the Dao Base Shard of the Ancient Vault of the Heavenly Path.”

Hearing this answer, astonishment flashed through Chen Ling’s eyes.

Just now when he was wiping the Spirit Tablets, Chen Ling had perceived an anomaly in the First Generation Red King’s Spirit Tablet. But he hadn’t expected that the thing that looked identical in appearance to the other Spirit Tablets was actually the shard of the Ancient Vault of the Heavenly Path?

Could it be that this First Generation Red King was related to the Ancient Vault of the Heavenly Path, the most mysterious of the Eighteen Divine Paths?

Regardless, not needing to search for the Ancient Vault of the Heavenly Path shard was a good thing. Otherwise, the Dusk Society currently didn’t even know where the Ancient Vault of the Heavenly Path was; trying to go find the shard again would be harder than ascending to the heavens.

“The Ancient Vault of the Imperial Path has now collapsed. Its shards might only be obtained by finding a way through Ying Fu… Then the most troublesome ones right now should be…”

“The Ancient Vault of the Ghost Path, and the Ancient Vault of the Evil Path.” The Grey King answered slowly.

“Two Lost Ancient Vaults, three regular Ancient Vaults…”

Chen Ling sighed softly, “Time is tight… The matter of collecting the Dao Base Shards can’t be delayed any longer.”

Not knowing when the Red Star would descend again, and not knowing where the Human Domains would ultimately head towards, Chen Ling had to be fully prepared to Reverse the Era and Reboot the World at any time. This meant that he had to collect all the divine path shards within the shortest amount of time.

And for five Ancient Vaults, relying solely on his own strength, it would absolutely be too late.

Furthermore, he was currently the Calamity of Mockery. Rashly stepping into other Divine Dao Ancient Repositories would likely draw the hostility of the Ancient Vaults, and even his life could be in danger…

“Are you going to issue tasks?” The Grey King asked.

Chen Ling thought for a moment, reached out and wiped through the void, and the faces of a deck of Playing Cards neatly arranged themselves before him.

He alone indeed couldn’t speedrun five Ancient Vaults. Fortunately, he was no longer alone now.

Chen Ling’s gaze quickly swept over these Card Faces…

Thanks to understanding them one by one some time ago, now upon seeing these Card Faces, their appearances, abilities, Ranks, and personalities automatically surfaced in Chen Ling’s mind. They rapidly arranged and combined in Chen Ling’s mind, ultimately forming several teams.

“Queen of Hearts, Jack of Diamonds, 9 of Spades, 8 of Hearts, Seven of Spades… go to the Ancient Vault of the Medicine Path.”

“Queen of Clubs, Red Heart 10, Spade 10, Nine of Hearts, 8 of Clubs… go to the Ancient Vault of the Puppet Path.”

“Queen of Diamonds, Red Heart J, Club 10, Eight of Spades, Seven of Diamonds… go to the Ancient Vault of the Witchcraft Path.”

Chen Ling fluently called out the candidates for the three teams, ensuring that every team possessed a Divine Path Possessor corresponding to the Ancient Vault, a high-rank member with super strong Combat Power, and various Divine Path Wielders capable of mutually buffing each other.

Divine Dao Ancient Repositories were not safe places. The deeper one went, the more dangerous it was. Chen Ling still couldn’t forget the things he saw in the depths of the Ancient Vault of the Military Path… Even the Bai Qi inside Jian Changsheng’s body right now had run out from there.

Chen Ling now only hoped that among these fifteen people sent to the Ancient Vaults, there would be no casualties.

“As for those two Lost Ancient Vaults…”

The danger level of Lost Ancient Vaults was a large chunk higher than regular Ancient Vaults. Just like the Ancient Vault of the Imperial Path, if not for the Lord of Hanging Jade intervening, those Emperor phantoms would probably have already wiped out the former 6-series members. Just a Special Envoy casually running out from the Ancient Vault of the Ghost Path nearly destroyed the younger generation of humanity in the Tianshu Domain.

Ancient Vaults of this level were no longer something ordinary members could explore.

“The Ancient Vault of the Evil Path, let me go personally.” The Grey King actively spoke up, “I am a half-step Rank 9 after all, at least there won’t be any danger to my life… Qingyan, you come with me.”

Liu Qingyan nodded and agreed without the slightest hesitation:

“Yes, Master.”

Out of the five Ancient Vaults, now only the last Ancient Vault of the Ghost Path remained with no one heading there. When Chen Ling recited these four words in his heart, his heart trembled slightly… He seemed to have recalled something, and his gaze was somewhat complex.

“If time is ample, I can go directly to the Ancient Vault of the Ghost Path after coming out of the Ancient Vault of the Evil Path.” The Grey King continued to say, “The Ghost Gate is sealed inside the Ancient Vault of the Ghost Path. It is the entrance to the world of the dead. The strength of the six Special Envoys behind the Ghost Gate is extremely terrifying… Currently within the Dusk Society, probably only I can safely enter and exit.”

Chen Ling shook his head, “No, no need… Ancient Vault of the Ghost Path, I already have candidates.”

“Oh?”

Under the doubtful gazes of the Grey King and Liu Qingyan, Chen Ling spoke word by word:

“Those going to the Ancient Vault of the Ghost Path… Six of Spades Jian Changsheng, Six of Diamonds Sun Bumian, Six of Clubs Jiang Xiaohua…”

“And…”

“Me.”
