Chapter 1376 - 18: Transformation (Part 1)

"Here it is, my lord."

Wang Luo cheerfully pointed to the ruins of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance ahead, bowing as he led Tang Haofei through, with Old Tang closely following behind.

At this stage, any professionist who can reach the Peak Level 8 isn’t foolish. Under Tang Haofei’s persuasion, Wang Luo accepted reality and shared his story—essentially a treasure hunter stumbled upon a precious artifact, which was then discovered, leading to others chasing him down.

Under Tang Haofei’s martial pressure, Wang Luo, a military informant, had no choice but to lead the way.

Thus, the two made their way to the Tenth floor of the Heavenly Palace, the site of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance ruins.

...

Upon seeing the broken walls around him, Tang Haofei frowned.

The Heavenly Palace Treasure Land has been open for decades. Many professionists found their first fortune here, along with extensive development by various forces. Today, the Heavenly Palace has been thoroughly explored.

Just like this place.

Almost every building and every patch of soil shows traces of being turned over by others.

"Over here, my lord."

Wang Luo smiled as he pointed out the path for Tang Haofei. While Old Tang was cautious, he first extended his perception to sense the surroundings—other than a few scattered professionists, the entire area was devoid of others, not a trap or ambush. So he simply furrowed his brow and followed Wang Luo slowly towards the interior of the ruins.

Until Wang Luo stopped before a building, pointing at the ancient architecture ahead, smiling as he spoke to Tang Haofei.

"Here it is."

Only then did Old Tang look up.

What he saw was a small building with the style of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes. Though not large, it was filled with a sense of the passage of time, covered in seals and barriers. The strength of these seals and barriers was not low, yet now they had been torn open.

"Little tricks."

Wang Luo joked, while Tang Haofei glanced at the breach in the seal without further interest.

Some special abilities indeed have the qualification to tear such seals.

After a brief inspection, Tang Haofei instructed Wang Luo to wait here, then headed inside the building.

...

Inside the building, it was dim and dark, but with Old Tang’s vision, he could naturally see the layout clearly.

On the ground, there was a large pit dug by someone, with a simple black box inside. The box emitted a colorful glow, indicating strong sealing barriers around it.

Next to the box lay a text-blurred stone tablet, seemingly worn out over time. The top of the stone tablet bore the native writing of the Universe of Immortals and Heroes.

"I am Tongtian... this as transcendence... Dominator... control..."

The unclear text, but Tang Haofei could understand the general idea. He stood by the pit for a long while before finally summoning Wang Luo inside.

"Is this... the treasure you mentioned?"

He pointed to the box in the pit and asked Wang Luo.

"Indeed, indeed."

"Then why haven’t you taken it?"

"I couldn’t break this seal..."

"How do you know it’s the method left by Almighty Immortal Emperor to escape Dominator’s control?"

"It’s all written here, my lord... don’t you recognize the text from the Universe of Immortals and Heroes?"

Entering the Super Treasure Land involves first learning the language and text of the treasure land, which is standard for every Hunter!

As for how to learn...

By using enlightenment aids, they aren’t expensive.

Wang Luo looked at Tang Haofei in surprise, and Old Tang was somewhat speechless.

He sharply sensed there was an issue with this matter, yet his somewhat impoverished mind couldn’t pinpoint the issue. After another silent pause, he raised his hand, unleashing a fist wind to completely destroy the seal.

The force feedback from the attack told Tang Haofei that the seal’s strength was indeed substantial.

As the seal broke, the box within the pit trembled twice before flying up and landing in Tang Haofei’s hand.

The box wasn’t light, covered in dense runes. After a quick glance, Tang Haofei crushed the runes with a single hand before leisurely opening the box.

With a flash of light, nine crystals of different sizes and a piece of silk cloth appeared before him.

Tang Haofei briefly sensed the energy levels within the crystals, his eyes widening in the next moment.

Level 11 magic crystals...

Six of them were indeed Level 11 magic crystals, while the remaining three were fragments of the Demon Realm’s Core.

The fragments were naturally not significant, but those six Level 11 magic crystals made Old Tang breathe heavily.

Such a gesture... should not be a fake, right?

With this thought, any last hesitation within Old Tang dissipated completely. He quickly stored the nine crystals, then picked up the silk cloth to carefully examine it.

"I am Tongtian, leaving a legacy here, gifting future generations, hoping they remember..."

Simply put, it was nothing more than a message from the "Immortal Emperor" and an alchemy formula for Conversion. After thoroughly reading through the manual, Tang Haofei understood the method for changing races.

He retrieved the crystals once more, furrowing his brow in long contemplation. After a while, he turned his gaze to Wang Luo.

"Do you remember the great opportunity I mentioned to you?"

"I remember, I remember... my lord, how about offering me some high-level skills? Not Esoteric Level, just SSS is fine!"

Wang Luo’s mercantile expression brought a slight smile to Tang Haofei, who put his arm around Wang Luo’s shoulder, speaking slowly.

"Don’t worry, the great opportunity I’m giving you is definitely stronger than a few skills!"

"For instance..."

"For instance... a method to escape the Dominator’s control..."

...

"One Level 11 professionist’s magic crystal, coupled with one Level 11 Demon Creature’s magic crystal, along with a fragment of the Demon Realm’s Core, and blood."

These four things mixed together, then merged and converted.

This process only needs about half an hour.

Tang Haofei waited silently, while Wang Luo sat nearby, resembling a bullied maiden, trembling.

Because this first concoction was meant for Wang Luo’s "great opportunity"...

"My lord, can I opt out? I don’t want the opportunity, I just want to go home..."

"No!"

Tang Haofei responded decisively, then ignored Wang Luo’s little emotions.

Faced with the unknown formula, Tang Haofei needed a test subject, and Wang Luo was the convenient guinea pig.

He needed to verify if the formula had any side effects.
