Chapter 599 - Windgod's Hidden Treasure Trove
Jin Rou looked at the key that was given to him and smiled. Even a small key like this contained thousands of mysteries waiting to be discovered. If one had enough comprehensive skills, this could help their cultivation. In fact, it was possible to breakthrough using this!
"Daoist Friend, our deal has been settled. I will go and take my rest now, as I have been exposed for so long now." Windgod softly said. He was a mere will, so it was understandable that he could withstand the flow of time for so long, "I have to make preparations for the upcoming resurrection trial. My guards won't bother you, so you can enter the trove without any hindrance. Until then, please be safe."
And so, Windgod disappeared from their sight. The room turned silent, with the awakened guard going back to his original posture and position.
"Off to the treasure trove now.." Jin Rou smirked. He was looking forward to what kind of treasures were there in the hidden treasure trove. Thus, he activated the key and a metal door appeared being carried by the wind.
"Zacharite, take care of Schwal and Louise. I will return immediately after." Jin Rou said, "Old man, you come with me. You're curious of what is inside, right?"
Zacharite nodded in response. He knew that he wasn't capable enough to see the treasures inside. The two ladies knew this as well.
"What, of course. How can I not be curious about it?" The old man laughed, seemingly expected the invitation, "Let's go."
Jin Rou smiled, "Off we go."
Afterwards, the two entered the gate without further ado.

What met Jin Rou and the old man was a galaxy filled with shining stars. It felt like they were outside of the realm, feeling so surreal.
"To achieve this kind of domain, Windgod must be at the peak level of Perfect Immortal." The old man gasped in amazement. This was only a domain, yet it felt so real that his heart skipped a beat, "No wonder the pressure I felt from him was so intense."
"Windgod has lived for so long now. So of course, it is normal that he is way stronger than you." Jin Rou explained, "He mastered so many dao techniques and perfected it to the utmost degree, reaching the current state he had in the past."
Jin Rou had to only look at the Windgod and he already knew quite of his background. Although he couldn't discover everything in one sitting, he could uncover a few to some secrets.
In order to become a perfect immortal, one had to perfect their natural dao without any external help. Meaning, they had to go through so many processes and honings to reach a perfect state. Even the latest geniuses of the realm was having a hard time to reach this state. After all, not only you have to expend personal efforts, so much resources would also be used.
Of course, there was a shortcut to becoming a perfect immortal. And that was to consume a legacy left by a perfect immortal. Only those powerful powerhouses had the right for this legacy, after all they had perfect immortals in the clear records.
The two walked slowly to observe their surroundings until they reached the end point. There, even Jin Rou couldn't help but admit that this treasure trove was the greatest he had seen.
"Windgod surely know how to hide his treasures." The old man was in disbelief. There were all kinds of treasures here. With a trove like this, they could immediately raise their own foundation and threaten the overlords of the realm.
"This must be the treasures he accumulated all these years he was alive." Jin Rou wryly smiled. He had to give it to Windgod for doing such an amazing feat.
"Is Windgod truly willing to part with these treasures? He must be nuts!" The old man was exasperated. If it was him, no matter what he wouldn't be willing to part with treasury like this.
"That's why you and Windgod are two different beings." Jin Rou didn't bother to explain and chuckled, "Anyway, indeed. He is willing to give all this to me without hesitation."
The old man choked his words. That Windgod must be completely insane to give all of this! If the other powerhouses got the wind of this, they would surely do everything to secure this trove even if they needed to exhaust their resources!
"Alright, stop dilly dallying. You pick a single treasure of your choice. Anything as you like it." Jin Rou was in a good mood and said.
"Really?" The old man asked in doubt. This young man was willing to give him a treasure of his choice?
"Of course. I am a man of my words." Jin Rou smiled, "So take anything you want before I transfer all of this to my domain."
"Fine fine." The old man hurried, afraid that the treasures would be lost immediately. He used his eyes to discover things and chose a clover plant, "This is what I want."
Jin Rou looked at the plant and smiled, "You sure know how to pick precious treasures. Alright, that is yours now."
He knew why the old man wanted that plant but didn't bother to ask. After all, it was personal reason and Jin Rou had no reason to know more about it.
"Thank you." The old man spoke softly. Jin Rou truly gave him that without any hesitation. Take note, the plant was so precious that it would make the super powerhouses go crazy for this. In fact, even apex existences were searching madly for this one!
"No need to thank me." Jin Rou said. Then, he moved all the treasures from this domain to his domain, leaving only a galaxy background.
This trip was so satisfying and worth it. He had gotten so many treasures that he didn't expect he would find here.
"Time to leave this place." Jin Rou said as he walked away. The old man followed suit immediately, afraid that the domain's exit door would close immediately.
