"The Demonic Lord's hidden treasury?"
Jun Xiaoyao murmured, his expression showing not the slightest change.
The Black Emperor observed Jun Xiaoyao's expression carefully.
Upon discovering that Jun Xiaoyao's expression did not change much, he felt a slight disappointment in his heart.
This meant that Jun Xiaoyao seemed unaware of the value of the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury.
"I know of the Demonic Lord, but he actually left behind a hidden treasury?" Jun Xiaoyao said.
Naturally, he was saying this on purpose.
One of Jun Xiaoyao's primary goals in the Origin Universe was the Dharma-Ending Immortal Ark.
This was something he was determined to obtain.
Jun Xiaoyao had previously been thinking about whether he could find some clues.
However, he had no leads.
In this boundless Origin Universe, trying to find something without any leads was even harder than finding a needle in a haystack.
Jun Xiaoyao had not expected that the Black Emperor would actually know some clues.
If there were no accidents, that Demonic Lord's hidden treasury was where the Dharma-Ending Immortal Ark was kept.
"To tell you the truth, the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury is of immeasurable value."
"It contains a supreme treasure called the Dharma-Ending Immortal Ark, which is something the Demonic Lord spent countless efforts and resources to create."
"If you can obtain it, it will definitely be a heaven-shaking Opportunity."
The Black Emperor said, trying to entice him.
He wanted to survive and needed to demonstrate his value.
"Do you know where the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury is?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"This Emperor does not currently know where the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury is."
"However, this Emperor knows where one can obtain clues about the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury," the Black Emperor said.
"Where?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
"Hehe, kid, you are still a bit too young to play mind games with this Emperor."
"If I tell you directly, would this Emperor still have a way to survive?"
"The best method is cooperation. This Emperor can assist you, and when the time is right in the future, this Emperor will naturally tell you the clues," the Black Emperor said with a sinister laugh.
He believed he was safe.
As long as he could stabilize Jun Xiaoyao, would he need to worry about not having a chance to make a comeback in the future?
Besides, this was a Chaos Body.
Although his own original body was not weak, compared to a Chaos Body, there was no comparison at all.
If he could successfully perform Possession on the Chaos Body, the Black Emperor was confident that he could Cultivate to the Peak.
If he also obtained the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury.
That would not just be taking off; it would be ascending to the heavens in one step!
It must be said that the Black Emperor's calculations were very loud in his heart.
Jun Xiaoyao also smiled and said, "Black Emperor, you aren't thinking about finding an Opportunity to perform Possession on my Chaos Body in the future, are you?"
"How could that be? We are just cooperating for mutual benefit," the Black Emperor said.
"What a pity..."
Jun Xiaoyao shook his head secretly and sighed.
"What is a pity?"
The Black Emperor's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
"It's a pity that you have no idea what methods I possess."
As soon as Jun Xiaoyao's words fell, he took action directly.
A terrifying Demonic Technique was activated and descended upon the Black Emperor.
The Black Emperor instantly felt an incomparably terrifying power that seemed to want to strip away his Soul, Primordial Spirit, and even his memories; it was boundless and domineering!
"This... this is!"
The Black Emperor was shocked beyond words.
"This... is the Demonic Lord's Wedding Dress Demon Art."
Jun Xiaoyao revealed a faint smile.
When the Black Emperor saw this smile, his heart instantly turned cold.
But what terrified him even more was Jun Xiaoyao's methods.
"You actually know the Wedding Dress Demon Art, who exactly are you?!" The Black Emperor could not help but roar.
"The possessor of the Demon Lord Origin, or perhaps, one of the Demonic Lord's successors?" Jun Xiaoyao thought for a moment and said.
"What?"
The Black Emperor was truly numb.
He had not expected that the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury he had spent a lifetime searching for—
—was now here, and the Demonic Lord's successor was right in front of him!
He did not think Jun Xiaoyao's words were false.
Because this Wedding Dress Demon Art could absolutely not be wrong.
Only the Demonic Lord's successor could possibly obtain it.
However, thinking of this, the Black Emperor felt even more terrified.
A Chaos Body was already shocking enough.
If one added the Demonic Lord's successor on top of that...
This person's background was simply too terrifying to describe!
Most importantly, the Wedding Dress Demon Art could strip away a person's Dao fruit, power, Divine Ability, Cultivation Technique, and so on.
Even memories could be stripped away!
In other words...
The Black Emperor's Divine Soul was trembling with fear.
"Since you are unwilling to speak, I will directly strip away your memories."
Jun Xiaoyao said indifferently.
"Kid, no, this Young Master, please spare me. I am still of value to you!"
The Black Emperor was terrified, lowering his stance, even carrying a hint of begging trembling in his voice.
His last bargaining chip for survival was also useless.
He was completely without value to Jun Xiaoyao.
And the consequence of having no value was naturally...
Death!
"No!"
The Black Emperor roared angrily, his Soul shaking.
But relying only on a wisp of his Primordial Spirit, how could he be Jun Xiaoyao's opponent?
And the Black Emperor's remaining body was still being suppressed by the seven-colored heaven-slashing gourd, so naturally, he could not muster any more power.
After Jun Xiaoyao finished stripping away the memories of the Black Emperor's Soul using the Wedding Dress Demon Art—
—he used the Unique Black Hole to completely refine his Primordial Spirit into the purest energy.
It could be said that he made full use of everything, without the slightest waste.
Shen Cangming and the Black Emperor had both perished completely.
Jun Xiaoyao stood in place with his eyes closed.
Jun Xiaoyao was not particularly interested in the Black Emperor's various Divine Abilities, Laws, and so on.
What he cared about were the clues regarding the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury in the Black Emperor's memories.
After a rough inspection.
Jun Xiaoyao slowly opened his eyes.
He extracted a keyword from the Black Emperor's memories.
Yumo Palace.
Just by hearing the name, one knew it was a Demonic Path force.
In the Boundary Sea, there were Demonic Path orthodoxies.
In the Origin Universe, there were naturally Demonic Path forces as well.
Moreover, this Yumo Palace had an extraordinary foundation of power and was definitely a hegemon.
But later, because of the so-called Demon-Suppressing War, Yumo Palace was destroyed.
However, its remnants still existed to this day.
They seemed to be waiting for the return of the former ruler of Yumo Palace, Grandmaster Motian.
"Yumo Palace, Grandmaster Motian..."
Jun Xiaoyao murmured to himself.
"It seems that Grandmaster Motian might have grasped some clues regarding the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury and the Dharma-Ending Immortal Ark," Jun Xiaoyao pondered.
He put himself in the other's shoes.
If he were Grandmaster Motian, he would certainly want to find the Demonic Lord's hidden treasury and obtain the Dharma-Ending Immortal Ark.
Because inside the Dharma-Ending Immortal Ark, there must be unimaginable, massive resources, which would be absolutely bountiful for any force.
In that case, Yumo Palace would definitely rise to become a true ultimate force, an absolute hegemon.
"However, that Yumo Palace is not in the Shanhai Star Realm. It seems that after things are settled, I will have to leave the Shanhai Star Realm."
Jun Xiaoyao made a plan in his heart.
He turned to look at the seven-colored heaven-slashing gourd and the Black Emperor's remaining body.
These were originally meant to be the capital for Shen Cangming's rise, but now they had all become his resources.
The value of the seven-colored heaven-slashing gourd went without saying.
The Black Emperor's remaining body also had value to be refined; after all, he was a former Emperor Realm fierce beast.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao began to collect the seven-colored heaven-slashing gourd.
Inside the seven-colored heaven-slashing gourd, there remained the imprint of the Seven-Colored Dao Lord, so it was impossible for a stranger to collect and refine it easily.
But with Jun Xiaoyao's various methods, it was naturally not difficult to collect it.
Not to mention, he also possessed the World Tree.
The World Tree was the ancestor of all wood.
And this seven-colored heaven-slashing gourd, strictly speaking, was also a plant; it was a supreme treasure borne from an ancestral vine.
In the end, Jun Xiaoyao forcibly erased the imprint that the Seven-Colored Dao Lord had left inside the seven-colored heaven-slashing gourd.
Then, he imprinted his own blood essence, subduing it.
After returning to the Fire Clan later, Jun Xiaoyao would also use the Chaos True Fire to re-refine the seven-colored heaven-slashing gourd.
