2396 Corpse That is on a Higher Level Than the Snake Scale!

Full of curiosity, Lin Yuan opened the fourth box and was greeted with the sight of half a corpse. The size of the corpse was akin to that of a pet cat, yet despite the length of time it had been here, only half of it had decayed. Despite its state, the corpse exuded a magnificent and solemn aura, giving it an air of dignity.

Evidently, this half a corpse did not belong to the water world, as otherwise, it would have decomposed long ago. Even the corpses of the two rulers had not remained preserved for such an extended period. The fact that the corpse was stored in a box within the two rulers’ treasure vault indicated that it had been there before their demise.

This lifeform had been dead for thousands, or perhaps tens of thousands, of years, yet it still emitted a powerful aura, a testament to its former strength during its lifetime.

The belief of the two rulers in the existence of another world was undoubtedly connected to this corpse. Furthermore, it was likely that they had derived benefits from it, considering their pinnacle Samsara Realm attainment and their imminent breakthroughs.

Knowing that Green Vine could consume the exclusive skills of items through Swallow Same Source and then utilize Entire Body Medium to sacrifice the item without any concerns, Lin Yuan planned to have Green Vine consume this corpse. He was curious to see how much power it had retained from its living state.

With his examination of all four boxes concluded, Lin Yuan knew it would take some time to compile a summary of the resources he had discovered. In the meantime, he decided to summon Green Vine so it could consume the corpse and unleash its potential.

This would sate Lin Yuan’s curiosity.

With this thought, he summoned Green Vine and said, “Green Vine, use one of your vines to consume this corpse!”

During the last few times that Green Vine used Swallow Same Source to consume other items, its vines always changed according to the item that it had consumed.

Lin Yuan decided to judge the corpse’s true identity based on the changes to Green Vine’s vine.

Green Vine swiftly transformed its body, extending its vines to reach a length of hundreds of meters. Among them, the three vines that had already consumed items surpassed the others in length.

One of the remaining five vines swiftly wrapped itself around the box, dragging the corpse inside.

Unexpectedly, the vine sprouted vibrant orange fur. Initially short and sparse, the fur rapidly grew thicker and more abundant.

The vine transformation occurred slightly slower than when Green Vine consumed the five dark gold snake scales.

Lin Yuan found this slightly surprising.

Could it be that this half-corpse was of an even higher level than the five dark gold snake scales?

Otherwise, there was no explanation for why Green Vine took longer to consume this corpse than it did the five dark gold snake scales.

When Lin Yuan entered the treasure trove to organize and sort through the resources, Frozen Ocean, Ink Ocean, Ancient Ocean, and Extreme Ocean were gathered together. They had all given Lin Yuan their soul fires, meaning they no longer needed to constantly protect their interests during conversations.

At that moment, the four of them formed a unified front and shared the same pool of profits. However, the other three were hostile toward Extreme Ocean due to his betrayal of Grace Sacred Hall and the resulting consequences.

Extreme Ocean had anticipated this reaction from the three of them, and he felt vexed but powerless to change the situation. There was no way to quickly appease their anger, and they were unable to act on their frustrations.

To break the tension, Extreme Ocean said brusquely, “Lord Lin Yuan was the one who came up with the idea of taking over Grace Sacred Hall. If any of you had been in my place, you would have ended up in the same situation. I was being attacked at the time. Any of you would have made the same decision I did, right?

“So, rather than seeing me as the enemy, we should be trying to unite so we can handle the next trial. Vine Source must resent all of you that you’ve beaten him to such a state. Those Samsara Realm Dictators have similar auras, and it’s clear that they come from the same world.

“The only way we’ll be able to remain noticeable among all the Samsara Realm Dictators is to help each other. If you agree with what I just said, we can have a good talk. But if you don’t agree, then there isn’t any point in me continuing to waste my breath!”

After he was done speaking, Extreme Ocean acted as though he was going to leave. But he only took a few steps before Frozen Ocean hastily said, “Extreme Ocean, you aren’t skilled at provocation. It makes you seem insincere. We should be banding together now. But, it’ll be enough for just the three of us to unite. Having you won’t make much of a difference either way. Don’t overestimate your importance!

“Regardless of the reason, you’re still the one who set us up. That is an undeniable fact. If you want to stay, you should pay up the apology that you owe us! From now on, you will rank last among us. Ancient Ocean will be in front of you. If you’re unwilling, you can leave now! After you leave, none of the three of us will try to make contact with you again.”

Extreme Ocean initially intended to keep Frozen Ocean, Ancient Ocean, and Ink Ocean under his thumb. Yet, the tables had turned, and he was now the one at a disadvantage.

Given Extreme Ocean’s temper, he should be storming off now.

However, Extreme Ocean did not have the courage to storm off due to the circumstances.

He had not expected Ink Ocean and Frozen Ocean’s power to have advanced. It had almost ruined Lin Yuan’s plan.

As of now, Extreme Ocean still had no idea how Lin Yuan saw him.

If the three of them kicked him out to fend for himself now, his future would be doomed!

As such, Extreme Ocean chuckled and assumed his original demeanor.

Although he did not say anything, his actions made it clear that he had agreed with what Frozen Ocean had just said. He was now the lowest-ranked among the four of them.

Extreme Ocean and Frozen Ocean had been the ones talking, while Ancient Ocean had been the one listening.

After remaining silent all this time, Ancient Ocean suddenly spoke to the three of them.
