Lord Death Is Now Back Home by Chris

Chapter 1228: The Jade Bracelet

Suddenly, Tiger exclaimed, "Boss, look, there are words on it!"

Hearing Tiger's exclamation, Chris Shelby immediately walked over to take a look. He found that the text was from the Terracotta period.

At this moment, Peterson Abernathy approached and asked, "Chris Shelby, what does it say?"

Chris Shelby explained, "According to these words, each treasure has a formation restriction. The stronger the treasure, the stronger the restriction. Breaking these restrictions is not an easy task!" Each side hall contained ten treasures. There were ten side halls in total, making a hundred treasures altogether!

Some of these treasures were ancient weapons, like bronze swords that could cut through hair and slice iron as if it were mud. Others were rare and valuable items like priceless jade. There were also bamboo slips from the Terracotta period, most of which contained ancient martial arts techniques.

All these treasures had formation restrictions. The stronger the restriction, the higher the value of the treasure. Some people tried to seize the high-value treasures but quickly realized that the restrictions were too strong to break.

The less valuable treasures had weaker restrictions. Faced with so many treasures, everyone immediately took action. People searched for treasures and used their abilities to break the restrictions once they found something they liked.

Since there were only a hundred treasures but thousands of people, many fights broke out over them. Chris Shelby set his sights on a bronze sword. Upon closer inspection, he discovered it was a king's sword from the Terracotta period.

Realizing this, Chris Shelby immediately attacked the restriction. It was known that bronze sword forging techniques during the Terracotta period were considered the best. Obtaining this bronze sword would be a significant gain for Chris Shelby.

Many people got their desired treasures. However, these treasures varied in value. The bronze sword Chris Shelby aimed for was among the more valuable ones.

After continuous attacks from Chris Shelby, the restriction finally broke. Without any hesitation, he grabbed the bronze sword. Whether one could open a restriction and obtain a treasure depended entirely on luck. Some saw their desired treasure but couldn't break the restriction and had no other options.

Chris Shelby was delighted as he carefully examined the bronze sword. He noticed that it was extraordinarily sharp and emitted a strong aura of pressure. This bronze sword seemed remarkable. The blade had a powerful formation restriction engraved on it. Even after spending more than ten minutes, Chris Shelby couldn't open it. However, he wasn't too disappointed.

After all, he had always used swords. Switching to another sword suddenly would feel unfamiliar to him. Moreover, the sword he currently held wasn't an ordinary one; it was one of the top ten famous swords in the royal treasury, personally bestowed by Master William!

A few hours passed; some people managed to seize treasures while most didn't. Those who got treasures were smug; those who didn't were dejected.

Tiger seized a heavy knife that greatly enhanced his combat abilities. Peterson Abernathy and Daniel Williams also got their desired treasures.

Besides grabbing a bronze sword, Chris Shelby also obtained a jade bracelet. This jade bracelet was emerald green and clearly valuable at first glance.

Although beautiful, the bracelet had no practical use for cultivators whose primary goal was to enhance their strength. Other valuables like gold and silver were merely external possessions; with strength came wealth.

Seeing Chris Shelby choose a bracelet made many people smirk with schadenfreude. As cultivators striving for greater power, none were interested in such decorative items.

Ignoring others' looks, Chris Shelby had his reasons for choosing this jade bracelet. He believed it wasn't simple since Prince Felix had chosen it as his burial item.

If this bracelet had no use at all, Chris Shelby wouldn't believe it. Though he wasn't sure about its utility yet, he felt it must have some significance being placed here.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

Daniel Williams mocked Chris Shelby, "Chris Shelby, with so many treasures here you chose a bracelet? Are you out of your mind?"

Chris Shelby's strength surpassed Daniel Williams'. If he wanted to seize treasures, no one could stop him.

Chris Shelby sneered back, "Daniel Williams, what I choose is none of your business. This bracelet is very useful to me; I'm going to give it to my wife!"

"Ha ha ha!" Daniel Williams laughed loudly and said sarcastically, "Chris Shelby! You're such a loving husband! Even here you think about your wife-you're truly an exemplary man! A perfect husband!"

Ignoring Daniel Williams' sarcasm, Chris Shelby put away the bracelet and headed towards the next level of the palace.

The House of Rainstorms had nine levels in total; they had already covered more than half of them.

Tiger approached and asked quietly, "Boss, should we keep going?"

"Yes," Chris Shelby nodded firmly. "Since Daniel Williams and Peterson Abernathy want to get their hands on the Dragon Emblem scroll fragments, I can't let them succeed easily. I won't let those fragments faff into their hands!"

The Dragon Emblem scroll fragments were martial arts treasures linked to Dragon

Emperor's treasure and secretst

martial arts' third step. Letting Peterson Abernathy or Daniel Williams obtain them would be

disastrous.

Hearing Chris Shelby's determination, Tiger said no more; he would unconditionally follow any decision Chris made.

While Chris Shelby and his team moved towards the next level of the palace,

In House of Rainstorms' ninth level-the final level-a man sat cross-legged on the ground.

"It's surprising Manson Jefferson

once tried to break into this House of Rainstorms but failed

miserably not only did he fail but et

also get severely injured midway through. Although he escaped later on he probably didn't live long after that."

"But these people have made it here; it shows their strength is formidable. I wonder who will be the ultimate victor? Who will be first to reach me?"

"I've been here for a hundred years-a century is too long! Once I complete this task, I can finally leave..."
