Baby with Daoist Monarch System-Chapter 510 - 196: Seven-Colored Key

Li Yan chuckled, "Hehe!"

Xu Ran wasn’t a stingy person, so he quickly spoke to everyone.

"Now is indeed the best time to explore the Exotic Star, and on the Alien Battlefield, there are bound to be many treasures left by aliens that can enrich the Treasure Vault!"

"Enrich it even more!" said [Heavenly Craftsmanship], "The few hundred divine-level treasures you brought back last time are already too much to store."

"We’ve had to open another layer of the Treasure Vault; it’s now become an eight-layer vault."

"In the eight-layer vault, they’re all divine-level treasures!"

Though the words seemed dismissive, you could hear the happiness in their tone.

Everyone present knew about Xu Ran’s venture into the catastrophe-level contamination zone and about the hundreds of divine-level treasures added to the vault.

However, to exchange for a divine-level treasure, the points required were astronomical. Unlike the [Miracle] and [Magic Mirror] squads, they hadn’t absorbed spirit medicine, so they couldn’t get a suitable divine-level treasure for free.

So, they could only exchange points for a divine-level treasure.

Xu Ran laughed, "The more treasures, the better!"

"Besides, there are many things on Blue Star that we, as people from Blue Star, don’t know about, as if time has been erased. This has something to do with the Exotic Star for sure."

"Going to scour the Exotic Star now might help solve some mysteries!"

[Banker] adjusted his glasses and said, "Exactly!"

"However, for safety, the Godslaying Squad below the Yue Realm should scour the Alien Battlefield, while those at the Yue Realm should enter the Exotic Star’s interior."

[Heavenly Craftsmanship], "I agree with [Banker’s] approach."

"Agreed!"

"I agree too!"

...

"By the way, Xu Ran, now that the Dao Heart Demon is slain, observing it from the video shouldn’t be confusing anymore, right?" [Banker] asked.

Xu Ran shook his head, "It won’t be anymore!"

"That’s good!"

Xu Ran didn’t know what the Celestial Summit Pavilion people planned to do.

He just explained some things to the [Miracle] squad members before he left.

Soon, the group made their decision, and seeing Xu Ran leave, they also exited the meeting room.

Xu Ran didn’t waste any time.

He immediately headed to the area where the Flower of the Earth Veins was located after leaving the meeting room.

After slaying the Dao Heart Demon, [Twilight of the Gods] extracted a seven-colored key from its body.

This key had an odd shape, emitting an odd aura, but upon closer inspection, he couldn’t figure out what was odd about it.

At the time, Xu Ran couldn’t see anything unusual about it and thought of asking the well-informed Xiao Lan upon his return.

Therefore, he came to find Xiao Lan first.

As soon as he entered, Xiao Lan came to his side, "Xu Ran, is everything resolved?"

Xu Ran had gone to investigate the peculiar alien creatures outside the Seventh Safe Zone, and Xiao Lan was aware of it.

"Yes!"

Then he took out that seven-colored key.

"Xiao Lan, do you know what this key is?"

As soon as Xu Ran took out the key, Xiao Lan’s originally azure eyes emitted an ethereal blue light, and within this blue light, mysterious runes were depicted.

Even Xu Ran couldn’t understand these runes.

Moreover, looking at it for a long time, he felt a stinging pain in his eyes.

At this moment.

The Red Treasure Pearl, which had always been shrouded in mist and hidden within him, started to become scorching hot.

Simultaneously, his body felt as if it was wrapped in flames, whole body heating up, and even his skin turned a fiery red.

In the next instant.

A Crimson Gold Treasure Pearl emerged from his body, and the mist covering it dissipated along with it.

At the same time, the blue light from Xiao Lan’s eyes disappeared, and Xiao Lan looked perplexedly at the key.

"Xu Ran, this key gives me a familiar feeling, it should be related to the Secret Realm!"

Then she saw the golden pearl before Xu Ran and said, "This pearl is the same!"

Xu Ran contemplated, looking at both the key and the red treasure pearl.

The Red Treasure Pearl was lured out from the Space-Time Barrier using Divine Origin after Xu Ran slew the Nightmare Vengeful Mother.

At the time, the red treasure pearl was shrouded in mist; it was only identifiable as crimson gold by its color, but its surface and interior were unknown.

In all this time, the Crimson Gold Treasure Pearl remained inactive.

But now, with the appearance of the peculiar key, the Crimson Gold Treasure Pearl emerged on its own, with the mist dissipated.

Moreover, although Xiao Lan didn’t know what these two items were for, she could sense their connection to the Secret Realm.

Since both treasures were related, it further indicated their interconnectedness.

Then, Xu Ran held the red treasure pearl up close to examine it carefully.

Only to see, the surface of the Crimson Gold Treasure Pearl had mysterious spirals that were extraordinarily enigmatic, beyond Xu Ran’s current comprehension.

Moreover, looking at them more seemed as if he’d lose himself into them.

Oddly, Xu Ran could see right through the spirals on the surface of the Crimson Gold Treasure Pearl, directly observing its internal situation.

Inside, colorful nebulae floated around, and within each nebula, a seemingly planetary sphere could be vaguely seen.

And around these spheres were rings of debris, resembling Saturn’s rings.

The interior of the Crimson Gold Treasure Pearl seemed like a planet, like a cosmos, harboring endless power.

After examining it for a while, Xu Ran still couldn’t find any issues.

He then put both treasures away.

"Xu Ran, since these two treasures are related to the Secret Realm, maybe they’ll show their use when it appears next time?"

Xiao Lan consoled, "Besides, I have a feeling that the next Secret Realm will appear in about two months."

Xu Ran nodded, "Then we’ll wait for about two months for the next Secret Realm to open!"

...

At the same time.

Blue Star.

On the streets, every TV, screen, and billboard displayed images of the Dao Heart Demon.

Scenes of the Dao Heart Demon wreaking havoc in the Sixth Safe Zone.

People passing by all stopped to watch.

Why? Because they are ordinary people being protected, and although they can’t set foot in the Alien Battlefield, they must keep an eye on its situation constantly.

Actually, the Celestial Summit Pavilion had already publicized about the Dao Heart Demon throughout Huaxia, so everyone knew its horrors.

And now, the eerie abilities of the Dao Heart Demon were truly displayed before them, showing them what kind of horrors the Sixth Safe Zone faced.

One after another, brave warriors fell into slumber, collapsing on the ground, then exploding, blood spattering everywhere, staining the entire Sixth Safe Zone red, causing everyone to beat their chests in anger.

Each person looked at the Dao Heart Demon with fearless eyes.

Wishing to dash forward and directly slay the Dao Heart Demon.

"I never thought that the warriors faced such dangerous monsters on the Alien Battlefield."

"This monster’s abilities are terrifying; so many of our warriors fell without resistance!"

"With such eerie abilities, would we humans still have a chance to win?"

...

People stood on the streets, eyes red, watching everything on the screens, occasionally wiping tears from their eyes.

Amid everyone’s sorrow, the commander of the First Safe Zone appeared on the screen.

"Ten days ago, a monstrously eerie creature appeared outside the Sixth Safe Zone, causing all warriors and the Godslaying Squad in the Sixth Safe Zone to succumb, even the Sixth Commander heroically sacrificed himself."

"Our Huaxia hero, Xu Ran, not knowing this eerie creature’s abilities, resolutely decided to go outside the safe zone alone and stop the eerie creature from continuing to harm humans!"

"Ten days later! Xu Ran has returned and brought us great news: the Dao Heart Demon, the eerie creature in the video, has been slain!"

People from Huaxia heard this and wept tears of joy.

"Great! Xu Ran has slain it!"

"I knew Xu Ran could do it!"

"Xu Ran always saves humanity from dire situations!"
