I Truly Am The Villian - Chapter 2572

Chapter 2572: Chapter 2571: News of the King’s Collection, Qiu Baiyin

“I observe that fellow Daoist’s demeanor is extraordinary, certainly with a great background. I have a very good business here.

Would fellow Daoist be interested?”

The young man said with a smile.

“Right, let me introduce myself.”

“My name is Qiu Baiyin, and I am the Clan Leader of the Wuming Sword Clan.”

“Though the Wuming Sword Clan governs only a medium-sized world.”

“But it is quite well known; fellow Daoist does not need to doubt my identity.”

“What kind of business?” Upon Xu Zimei’s secret instruction, Black Mountain Old Demon asked calmly.

“This way, fellow Daoist, there are too many people here,” Qiu Baiyin said with a wave of his hand.

Creating an independent space ahead.

This single move showed that his strength was not weak.

Once inside.

Ensuring no one around could hear, Qiu Baiyin smiled and said.

“I know the location of a treasure.”

“But relying on my strength alone, I’m afraid it’s very hard to break through there. So I hope to find some fellow Daoists who can cooperate with each other. When we acquire the treasure, how about we split it evenly?”

Saying this, seemingly afraid that Black Mountain Old Demon won’t believe him.

Qiu Baiyin continued, “That treasure is a King’s Collection, and the treasures inside are astonishing.”

“I suspect it’s an ancient major sect from old times.”

“King’s Collection?”

Black Mountain Old Demon was somewhat surprised.

In the Heavenly Burial Grounds, most of the treasures.

Are merely from the People’s Collection.

Next are the Soldier’s Collection, General’s Treasure, and Minister’s Collection.

And further up are King’s Collection and Imperial Collection.

King’s Collection already belongs to a high-grade treasure land.

If it truly is a relic of an ancient large sect.

Then it’s not just about the treasure itself; the research significance is even greater.

One must know, now people exploring the Heavenly Burial Grounds.

Aside from seeking treasures,

Many actually want to know about the secret of the cosmic explosion.

This matter is vital.

Because no one knows, whether after several epochs, it will still continue?

If it happens again, is there any way to prevent it?

Even Xu Zimei is curious about this point.

He previously asked Abyss Zero whether the last cosmic explosion was caused by their Zero.

But from Abyss Zero’s mouth, Xu Zimei learned it probably wasn’t.

Because after the cosmic explosion, no creature could survive.

The entire universe is akin to being reset and rebooted.

Even Zero is a newly emerged life form after the cosmic explosion.

They need to pursue the secret of the past cosmic explosion to restart the universe.

But the specific method, Abyss Zero doesn’t know either.

It’s clear that, within Zero, although he has some strength, he can’t access top-secret information.

Xu Zimei had expected this.

If Abyss Zero had absolutely powerful strength,

Then even Xu Zimei’s strength would probably make it difficult to spectate like sitting on a mountain.

Xu Zimei has a clear self-awareness.

He hasn’t personally encountered a Giant World, nor has he witnessed the true Cosmic Clan.

The road ahead is long, with much more to traverse.

But Xu Zimei is not in a hurry.

Step by step, he will explore slowly, eventually reaching the point where the heights are daunting.

…

Seeing that Black Mountain Old Demon hadn’t reacted.

Qiu Baiyin was somewhat anxious.

He asked again, “Fellow Daoist, have you considered it?”

“Why me?” Black Mountain Old Demon asked.

“There are so many people, why did you suddenly find me when we are strangers to each other?”

“Fellow Daoist, I see you are a new face; it’s your first time here at the Heavenly Burial Grounds,” Qiu Baiyin said.

“I won’t hide it.”

“This King’s Collection involves significant matters, and I don’t want to cooperate with local people.

Lest they reveal this information.”

“If the King’s Collection is exposed, it will be a loss.”

“And you are new, with no foundation in the Heavenly Burial Grounds, making you the most suitable choice.”

“Just the two of us?” Black Mountain Old Demon asked.

“Fellow Daoist, I don’t look down on you, but the King’s Collection is a major matter that can’t afford a single mishap.

I’ve found a few other people as well; counting you, it should be about right.”

Qiu Baiyin spoke honestly.

He’s not just looking for random people.

For example, Xu Zimei’s cosmic battleship is visibly from outside.

Because cosmic battleships native to the Heavenly Burial Grounds are all crafted using the unique Ksitigarbha Stone of the Heavenly Burial Grounds.

There is a huge difference compared to the cosmic battleships from the outside world.

So Qiu Baiyin could pick Black Mountain Old Demon directly from the vast sea of people.

Moreover, Xu Zimei’s cosmic battleship was specially designed for him by Gongsun Muya.

Just from the appearance and cost, it’s invaluable, very eye-catching.

Anyone capable of riding such a battleship surely isn’t an ordinary person.

Based on these two points, Qiu Baiyin chose Xu Zimei’s duo.

Actually, Qiu Baiyin felt anxious inside too.

The news about the King’s Collection can’t be hidden much longer.

If they don’t act quickly, he might not get even a piece of it, let alone the meat.

The King’s Collection is crucial, and it can’t afford further delay.

Following Xu Zimei’s instruction, Black Mountain Old Demon nodded finally and said.

“Alright, both of us will go to take a look.”

“Good, the treasures inside will be evenly divided, and nobody will be shortchanged,” Qiu Baiyin said with a grin.

He was in high spirits, feeling the manpower was about enough.

He continued, “Tomorrow at dawn, we’ll rendezvous at Hu Ben Pass.”

…

After returning to the cosmic battleship, Black Mountain Old Demon couldn’t help but ask.

“Master, is this person trustworthy?”

“It doesn’t matter, anyway, we also need to visit the Heavenly Burial Grounds. Having these locals familiar with the terrain will save us a lot of effort,” Xu Zimei said.

He doesn’t care much about King’s Collections and such treasures.

Unless there’s some world-shattering treasure inside.

Like the Epochal Heavy Weapon.

“Where is the Epochal Heavy Weapon you mentioned earlier?” Xu Zimei asked.

Black Mountain Old Demon knew the whereabouts of an Epochal Heavy Weapon.

But whether it can be obtained is Xu Zimei’s business.

Black Mountain Old Demon hurriedly said, “Treasure Splitting Cliff.”

“There is definitely an Epochal Heavy Weapon there.”

“Master, if you have time, you can visit there.”

“However, the requirements of Treasure Splitting Cliff are strict. Whether the master can obtain the treasure depends on your own skill and luck.”

Xu Zimei nodded slightly.

Black Mountain Old Demon only needs to provide him with the information.

He then asked, “Where is the Hu Ben Pass mentioned by that person earlier?”

As the cosmic battleship continued moving forward, Xu Zimei and others had already exited the mountain canyon.

The view ahead was vast and magnificent.

In general, the universe is dark, silent.

Only some worlds and meteors exist.

In the universe, it seems nothing can be seen in terms of scenery.

But the scene ahead was enough to overturn everyone’s understanding of the universe.

Xu Zimei stared straight ahead.

Only to see clouds and sunset merging as one, reflecting a unity of water and sky.
