Chapter 330 - 330: Demon Cultivation

"Interesting. I would love to hear about those," Long Chen said to her.

"His personal treasury is made from the Jaedite Ore. It is said to be the strongest material that is found in our kingdom. Even a peak Sky Realm Cultivator can't break it," she said.

"Oh? Interesting. So it's impossible to break the treasury and enter," Long Chen said with a frown.

"Indeed," she replied.

"That's not all. The most amazing thing is the way to open it. It's said to be designed by the best Formation Master of the Beast Hall," she replied.

"There's a small formation at the entrance of the treasury. The formation can read palm prints and it will only open with the Palm Prints of His Majesty. There's no other way to enter it," she continued.

"That's strange. The Beast Hall is quite far from here. Why would their Formation Master come here and establish that formation for your king?" Long Chen asked with a frown.

"That's a long story. Apparently, His Majesty helped the Formation Master of the Beast Hall with something. In order to thank the king, that Formation master decided to make that formation for the King," she told him.

"Why would the Beast Hall Formation Master need the help of a small kingdom's King? The Beast Hall is even stronger than most of the Empires after all," Long Chen muttered.

"It has something to do with the Dark Soul Sect," she said as she looked at Long Chen.

"The Dark Soul Sect? How?" Long Chen was already curious about why the Beast Hall formation Master would take the help of a small king, but the name of the Dark Soul Sect got him even more interested.

"The Beast Hall Formation Master was chasing after a cultivator from the Dark Soul Sect. He lost the trail of the cultivator, but only because of our King was he able to find the cultivator once more. That's how it all happened," she explained.

"Oh, that makes sense. The Beast Hall has a deep enmity with the Dark Soul Sect after all. I can understand why the Formation Master rewarded your king," Long Chen said

"Back to the topic, the treasury can only be opened by the King? Is there no other way? What if the king died? What would happen to the treasury?" he let out with a thoughtful look on his face.

"I don't know about that. Maybe there are other ways as well? Or maybe the king has authorized another person and the treasury can be opened with someone else's palm print as well? Your guess is as good as mine at the moment," she muttered.

"Right. Thanks for explaining that to me. I'll go back now," Long Chen said with a smile as he turned back and walked back to his own room.

He entered his room and sat on his bed as he started thinking of a plan. It wasn't as easy as he just thought. He hadn't expected this kind of security after all.

He didn't care about the guards, but what would he do if he even managed to enter the palace. He needed a way to open the treasury.

"It might be possible if I cut the hand of the king. But he's a Sky Realm cultivator. I'm not even sure if I can do it safely. He shouldn't have reflexes like Lang Jing, but I just don't want to take the risk," he muttered.

"It's there really no other way? Can I really not do anything?" he muttered with a frown.

'Oh right. I can use him,' Long Chen thought of a plan as a smile appeared on his face.

"I can't believe I've totally forgotten about him," he muttered.

"The King might be strong, but I can control his closest aid. The King must have kids. If he doesn't have kids, I can move onto his ministers or his servants. No matter what I have to do. I'll achieve my target and get the Heavenly Ruler," he said in a low voice.

It was already evening so Long Chen didn't put his plan in motion. He decided to rest for the day and start everything fresh from tomorrow.

He stood up and walked to the shower room and took a long shower before he came out and sat in a meditative position.
