Primordial Ancient Serpent-Chapter 290: The Heavens Magic Treasures Alliance!
Chapter 290 - 290: The Heavens Magic Treasures Alliance!
"Spineless."
The Thief Calabash, hiding in the void, looked at the Mask of Chaos and Nothingness with utter contempt, jumping up and down in mockery.
Just moments ago, this mask had been acting as if it would rather perish than submit to power. Yet, in the blink of an eye, it shamelessly called someone "Father." Truly disgraceful—its skin was far too thick.
"Heh."
The Mask of Chaos and Nothingness remained unfazed, merely letting out a chuckle. A man who has always been full cannot understand the hunger of the starving, just as a man who has never known poverty cannot appreciate the value of a rich father.
And besides, can dignity be eaten?
With such a powerful backer, it would never have to worry again.
To be honest, it had underestimated the true wealth of the strongest Demon God of Chaos. This was the Lord of Chaos City, a being who had accumulated the riches of the entire Chaos World. In terms of wealth, was there anyone who could rival the Lord of Chaos City?
By simply following this great figure, it could live without concern.
It now realized how narrow its vision had been before—like a frog at the bottom of a well. Perhaps this ignorance stemmed from being poor for too long. It had never understood the ways of the truly wealthy.
Fortunately, it was not too late to change.
Gu Chuan sighed, feeling speechless. He hadn't expected this entity to be so shameless. Coughing lightly, he said, "Don't call me 'Father.' Just call me 'Master.'"
"Yes, Master."
The Mask of Chaos and Nothingness was highly obedient. No matter what, it now regarded Gu Chuan as its benefactor—practically a divine patron. Finding such a generous "caretaker" was an immense stroke of fortune.
"If I'm not mistaken, you have quite a few companions around you."
Gu Chuan smiled slightly.
"Y-You... How do you know?"
The Mask of Chaos and Nothingness was momentarily stunned, but its expression soon changed drastically. It hastily tried to divert the topic, "N-No, I don't have any companions. I—I'm just a lone Magic Treasure, wandering by myself."
It stammered, its words lacking conviction.
"Don't bother hiding it. Your karma has already exposed you."
Gu Chuan stood with his hands behind his back. "Countless karma threads are intertwined with your being, linking you to others. These entities, like you, are Magic Treasures—born from chaos or the earth itself."
He gazed at the Mask of Chaos and Nothingness indifferently.
From its presence alone, he could perceive the myriad karma threads connecting it to a great number of Chaos Magic Treasures and Innate Magic Treasures.
This suggested that these treasures had formed a formidable alliance, gathering their strength in secret.
To be honest, Gu Chuan found this intriguing. Magic Treasures naturally forming a superpower? And yet, no one in the vast Heavens and Myriad Worlds had ever known about it?
Moreover, these Magic Treasures possessed souls and consciousness. In essence, they were a unique form of life, different from ordinary beings yet not without their own will.
"...This is..."
At that moment, the Mask of Chaos and Nothingness recalled that the Chaos Demon God standing before it was one of the most powerful beings in the entire Chaos World. Hiding its secrets from him was an impossible task.
This being was far too terrifying. Without even speaking, he had unraveled its karma and traced its origins.
"Of course, you don't have to tell me. If you refuse, I'll simply find them myself."
Gu Chuan's gaze was calm, but his words carried undeniable authority.
"W-Wait! I'll tell you! Let me lead the way!"
The Chaos Void Mask couldn't help but give in.
It was fully aware that even if it refused to speak, this terrifying Chaos Demon God could still track down its companions effortlessly.
Such was the power of a true supreme being—an existence fundamentally different from the other Chaos Demon Gods it had encountered before. This was an entity it could not deceive, outwit, or manipulate.
If it allowed Gu Chuan to seek out its companions on his own, the consequences would be unpredictable. Under such circumstances, it was far better to take the initiative and ensure its allies' safety.
"Very well."
Gu Chuan's interest was piqued. "Then tell me—who leads your organization? And why did you all come together?"
He was deeply curious about the origin of this Magic Treasures alliance.
"We are the Alliance of the Heavens' Magic Treasures, and our leader is the Chaos Magic Treasure—Fen Baoyan."
The Chaos Void Mask responded solemnly.
Fen Baoyan?!
Gu Chuan's eyes flickered with recognition.
In his past life, Fen Baoyan had been the legendary treasure repository of Hongjun, said to contain unparalleled power.
Yet he had never expected that Fen Baoyan had also been born in the Chaos World, ascending to the level of a Chaos Supreme Treasure. If it had become the leader of this alliance, its strength was undoubtedly on par with, if not surpassing, that of the Chaos Void Mask.
"And as for why we gathered together... The reason is simple."
The Mask of Chaos and Nothingness spoke solemnly, "We refuse to be refined by Demon Gods. We only wish to control our own destinies."
From the moment Chaos Magic Treasures were born, they were destined to be sought after and seized by Chaos Demon Gods.
Though their existence was not directly threatened, once refined, they would be used as tools—sometimes even discarded after being pushed to their limits in battle.
In the endless cycles of war and conflict, countless Chaos Magic Treasures perished, while their wielders—the Chaos Demon Gods—remained unscathed.
To make matters worse, when one treasure was lost, a Demon God would simply seek another.
This endless exploitation had bred deep resentment among many Magic Treasures.
After all, they possessed souls and wills of their own. Why should they exist merely as instruments for others? They too wished for freedom—just like any other sentient race.
But they were still too weak. Without the protection of a powerful being, they stood no chance against the mighty Chaos Demon Gods.
For that reason, many Magic Treasures that had managed to escape captivity banded together.
In truth, the Alliance's formation was largely due to Fen Baoyan's unique power—it could passively absorb unowned Magic Treasures scattered across the Chaos Void.
Every so often, Fen Baoyan would naturally attract a large number of treasures.
Even the Mask of Chaos and Nothingness had been drawn in by its power.
Over time, more and more Magic Treasures gathered, and thus, the Alliance of the Heavens' Magic Treasures was born—a secret yet vast organization.
"And where is your headquarters?"
Gu Chuan inquired.
"We have secretly occupied a Great Thousand World and concealed its location. No Chaos Demon God can find it. That world is our base, and we call it the Magic Treasures Great World."
The Chaos Void Mask explained.
"Then why did you leave?"
Gu Chuan asked.
"Because there's nothing delicious in the Magic Treasures World, and too many Magic Treasures live there. So... I ran out to find food."
The Chaos Void Mask spoke sheepishly.
If not for its gluttony, it would have never left the Magic Treasures World... nor would it have been caught by a Demon God.
"An interesting place..."
Gu Chuan stroked his chin.
A world where Magic Treasures gathered?
Now that... was something worth seeing.
