Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 388: 388

The items were all exquisite, and Xue Wei, who loved treasures very much, quickly took them all and stored them within his storage treasures .

Exiting the building, he led the others to another building - the one that had been hit by the poisonous arrows .

This building had a trap with flaming fireballs that got shot out, and when they landed on the building he had already emptied, the building itself burst into flames .

This second building contained inscriptions and different books filled with inscription patterns and their uses .

This was something that Xue Wei needed urgently to increase his strength, so he hurried and stored it all in a storage treasure, which he quickly hid away .

By the time he had finished emptying these two buildings, the others had caught up to them . Some of them considered fighting Xue Wei for his treasures, but after careful consideration, they decided against it . This was merely the beginning of the Blue Phoenix Manor; it could not contain many interesting things .

Xue Wei would have snorted at them if he knew their thoughts .

These houses were the storage buildings . All the resources would be stored within these houses .

The groups of people were split into two, half of them were heading straight for the main house, where they wanted to try their luck at getting some rare treasures, while others were emptying the storage buildings first .

Xue Wei was amongst the group who emptied the storage buildings . Many were not fast enough to escape the traps that were triggered when the doors were open, but even more, were waiting behind the others, so even though Xue Wei and his group were the first to enter the Blue Phoenix Manor, they only managed to take the items from three storage houses, two of which had been opened before anyone else arrived .

After all the storage houses had been emptied, a sea of people went towards the main manor of the Blue Phoenix Manor . It was very tall, many floors high, and those who had entered first were once again split into two groups .

One group was turning over everything on the first floor, trying to get everything of value into their pockets, while others were rushing to the top level in the hope that the rarest of treasures were hidden here .

When entering, Xue Wei instantly walked to a bookshelf, and he took all the books into his storage treasure . Many had ignored these books, but Xue Wei felt that there might be something of value in them . Hence he kept them .

Continuing forward, he found many broken treasures and things which had been turned over by those who had entered first, and he took some of them while leaving others .

Suddenly he stopped in his tracks, and a feeling of vigilance appeared in his heart .

"We are leaving," he suddenly said, and without waiting, he started ushering his friends out of the building .

They had only reached the second floor, so it did not take them long to vacate the premises .

As soon as they entered, the feeling of danger became increasingly prominent, and now not only Xue Wei could feel it, the others who had also gone through multiple life and death situations could sense that things were wrong .

"We need to get out of the barrier!" Xue Wei said, and they began moving fast to the barrier .

As soon as they reached the barrier, they saw that the original small hole that Luoluo had made had grown to a massive size, at least a fifth of the barrier was gone .

"This is bad," Xue Wei said suddenly . "Why would the Blue Phoenix Manor be hidden beneath a barrier?" he suddenly asked a question to the others, but they did not know, shaking their heads .

"Because it is the perfect place to keep a beast in captivity," he continued . "The barrier was obviously not made by the Blue Phoenix for the sake of protecting its home; it is made to keep something inside .

"and what that is, I think Luoluo should know . "

Everyone suddenly looked towards the young woman, who was pale and trembling .

"I am not completely sure what it is," she said with a shaky voice, "but it is dangerous . The creature who left this inheritance I got also left a key to open this Blue Phoenix Manor . The beast beneath the Blue Phoenix Manor has been asleep for eons and has not awakened, but now that people are making such a ruckus above its head, it will definitely wake up . We got to hide!"

Xue Wei completely agreed with her when hearing this, and just as they got ready to leave, the entire ground began shaking . It was not a small earthquake; it was as if the whole realm was trembling, space was distorted, and the surrounding temperature started dropping .

"We have to go now!" Xue Wei said through gritted teeth, but Luoluo looked around them . "It’s too late," she said . "The entire space has a space lock inscription activated . We have three options now .

"One is to team up with others and fight the monster . Another is to hide and hope it does not find us . And the final option is for us to fight it aloneA final is to fight it alone . "

Xue Wei contemplated for some time as he looked into the depts of the Blue Phoenix Manor, where many of the experts had gathered outside the building .

"They are all elites of their families . They will not die easily, but I do not know the strength of this beast that we are up against . Why don’t we just wait and see what happens? Let them fight first . If they are close to victory, we will assist them; if they cannot win, we will hide . "
