The Demonic Treasure House

Cheryl led the way in front, smiling as she replied, "Soon."

"Very well," Jiang Han immediately understood since Cheryl mentioned it would be fast; it must be the second transformation.

The two traversed through the Ghost Marsh, heading north. The surrounding scenery gradually changed, and the withered, dilapidated forest disappeared, revealing a desolate and flat wilderness.

After walking on the wilderness for nearly half an hour, Jiang Han saw numerous unknown-level magical beasts passing by. They varied in forms and possessed astonishing strength, all far exceeding the current stage's monsters.

As the sun set in the west, the lingering sunlight dyed the clouds crimson.

After more than fifty minutes of long-distance trekking, a silent and gloomy castle appeared before Jiang Han.

The castle was majestic, standing tall by the sea, shrouded in thick black mist. From a distance, one could vaguely see dilapidated walls that had been deserted for a long time, overgrown with weeds. However, the closer they got, the more the oppressive atmosphere couldn't be dispelled.

"Ding!~"

System prompt: You have entered the dangerous map [Demon Mist City]!

[Demon Mist City] (Super Main City)

Introduction: Although the traces of the ten demon gods are elusive, the Demon Mist City is their gathering place and also the location of the Demon God's Treasury. If someone can conquer this castle, they will undoubtedly become a legendary figure shaking the Eternal Continent.

"Creak..."

The two approached, and the castle gate slowly opened.

Entering the interior, Jiang Han saw countless magical creatures and some humanoid powerhouses roaming the streets. He immediately followed closely behind Cheryl to avoid accidentally getting touched by a large magical creature and being instantly killed.

At this moment, those magical creatures, far beyond imagination, all moved in the same direction as Cheryl. Evidently, they were all super powerful individuals completing the "Siege and Conquer" mission.

However, Jiang Han could still occasionally see a few level fifty golden-level bosses, probably like himself, who successfully conquered a third-level town.

After advancing for another ten minutes, they arrived at the central part of a castle. There stood a towering building, and faint roars could be heard, sending shivers down one's spine.

"This is the Demon God's Treasury." Cheryl reminded in a low voice, "The treasury has five floors, each containing equipment, potions, skills, items, and special items respectively. No fighting or snatching is allowed, so you can choose with confidence."

"Understood."

Jiang Han nodded, firmly remembering.

"But absolutely do not go to the sixth floor." Cheryl solemnly warned, "Starting from the sixth floor, it's not the Demon God's Treasury but a prison."

"A prison?"

"It imprisons some terrifying powerhouses that once dominated the world." Cheryl explained, "With your current strength, entering would mean death."

"Alright, I understand."

...

While the two were conversing, the gates of the building opened.

Many magical creatures nearby swarmed in. Even though some of them didn't have humanoid forms, Jiang Han still saw the eager emotions in their eyes.

"Let's go."

Cheryl also seemed quite eager, stepping into the Demon God's Treasury.

Seeing this, Jiang Han followed suit.

After passing through a spacious corridor, Jiang Han reached the destination. In his field of vision were cabinets containing various equipment, neatly arranged and dazzling.

"Ding!~"

System prompt: Please note that you have entered the [Demon God's Treasury], and you have ten minutes to choose the treasure you want. However, the quantity is limited to one item, or else you will be eliminated by the treasury guardian!

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh..."

At the same time, above the first floor, beams of pure white laser-like energy shot out. As the energy descended, many large creatures quickly shrank, preventing them from causing damage while selecting items.

Only ten minutes?

Jiang Han was slightly surprised. Without saying a word, he skipped the floor with placed equipment and went to the stairs, heading to the second floor.

Arriving at the second floor, there were numerous potions.

Potions, as disposable items, shouldn't have high value, right? He casually used Insightful Eyes to check the descriptions and was instantly stunned—

[Elf Spring Water] (Immortal Grade)

Introduction: Mysterious substance in the Elf Sacred Spring, an unparalleled divine medicine in the era when the elves secluded themselves, extremely precious.

Effect: Permanent +100,000 HP

Additional Effect: Restores 5% HP per second, lasting fifteen seconds

Limitation: Each consumption will result in a gradual decrease in the permanent HP increase effect.

[Mighty Pill] (Immortal Grade)

Introduction: Extremely rare top-quality potion within the Dwarf clan, only eligible for core clan members to enjoy.

Effect: Permanent +1,000 base attack

Limitation: Can only take effect once

...

Damn, a top-quality potion with a permanent attack increase?! Jiang Han was almost dumbfounded, feeling an intense excitement.

Although the Mighty Pill could only take effect once, it didn't have a level restriction. He could use it now, instantly raising his attack by a thousand, reaching a level that was currently unattainable for other players.

"Calm down, calm down..."

Jiang Han took a deep breath, deciding to check other floors.

Two thousand attacks might be precious in the early stages, but it was still just the early stages. Looking at it with a longer perspective, considering the potion belonged to the Dwarf clan, there might be a chance to obtain the Mighty Pill from the Dwarf clan in the future.

In simpler terms, it was valuable enough but not unique.

No longer paying attention to the potions, Jiang Han rushed to the third floor.

The third floor housed various skill books, colorful covers neatly placed on the counter, waiting for their masters.

Without a doubt, the skill books that could enter the Demon God's Treasury were extraordinary, at the very least, A-grade. Moreover, they were categorized into different occupational areas. Jiang Han checked the section for swordsmen and immediately wanted every book.

Among them, what caught Jiang Han's eye the most was an attack skill called—

[Dragon Sundering Slash] (S-Class)

Introduction: Gathers elemental energy within the body, unleashing a devastating slash forward.

Effect: Deals 400% damage based on your own attack to the enemy, causing a tearing effect. Subsequent damage inflicts 25% damage per second, lasting for ten seconds.

Cooldown: Ten minutes

Requirements: Knight, Swordsman class

...

The destructive power was simply overwhelming. Including the tearing effect, the total damage amounted to 650% of the base. Who could withstand such an attack?

"Let's check other places."

Jiang Han decided to stash Dragon Sundering Slash into his inventory and then head to the fourth floor.

Although the Demon God's Treasury stipulated that only one item could be chosen to take out, it did not limit carrying items on one's person without taking them out.

Arriving at the fourth floor, the items in sight included various scrolls and gems. However, items like the Divine Guardian Gem, considered divine artifacts, did not appear. It was estimated that if they did exist, the Demon God himself would have used them.

After spending five minutes looking through everything, Jiang Han did not find anything particularly enticing and proceeded to the next floor.

He was quite curious about the so-called special items.

Entering the fifth

 floor, Jiang Han found that compared to the other floors, this space was much smaller. Most of the level fifty golden-level bosses that easily conquered third-level towns were here.

Approaching a cabinet, Jiang Han saw many jade-made items. Using Insightful Eyes to inspect, he found that they were all hidden job transfer proofs, including some familiar professions.

[Job Transfer Proof: Crimson Blaze Swordsman] (Hidden Profession)

[Job Transfer Proof: Black and White Summoner] (Hidden Profession)

[Job Transfer Proof: Soul Harvester] (Hidden Profession)

...

However, Jiang Han had no intention of changing his profession, and most of the transfer proofs placed here were hidden professions. On average, their overall growth star rating was around four stars, much lower than his Dark Swordsman.

Looks like I can only choose Dragon Sundering Slash...

Jiang Han shook his head.

Dragon Sundering Slash was excellent, but it still didn't reach the level of making him feel "surprised."

"Which one should I choose?"

At this moment, a burly man with a bare upper body, wearing loose red trousers, appeared beside Jiang Han. He had many scars on his body and held a scroll and a transfer proof, showing a hesitant expression.

He was an ordinary warrior, and the improvement of hidden professions was quite significant. However, this scroll had a special effect, and if used well, it was no less valuable than hidden professions. He also didn't want to give up on it...

Huh?

Curious, Jiang Han, who had already made a decision, threw an Insightful Eyes at the scroll in the man's hand. Suddenly, he was shocked, and his eyes widened.

Are these treasures actually placed in the Demon God's Treasury?

It's practically ridiculous...

[Replication Scroll] (S-Class)

Introduction: The scroll conceals a special power that can perfectly replicate a similar item.

Effect: 100% chance to replicate items of S-Class and below, 50% chance to replicate SS-Class items.
