Ye Li nodded and said, "That should be the case. It seems that this key place does not have any additional restrictions except for the realm restrictions.
Anyone who enters has the possibility of obtaining the key, so the seven keys scattered in other places will definitely be found by someone.
I think after all the keys are obtained, the Black Eyed King's treasure will be opened, but I don't know why the Black Eyed King's treasure would limit the level of cultivation?"
Hearing Ye Li's question, Evans was silent for a while, shook his head and said: "I don't understand what the Black Eye King wants to do. Restricting cultivation is generally more common in trial ruins, but it is rare in treasure places.
Unless... unless he has left his legacy inside for someone to inherit, that’s why he restricted the cultivation level of those entering to not be too high.”
Everyone looked bewildered when they heard this. Although the speculation of inheriting the mantle was indeed possible, the possibility was not very high. After all, she had already reached the gestational stage and the primordial stage, so what mantle was there to inherit
Everyone thought about it for a while, but couldn't come up with a definite answer, so in the end, the matter was left unresolved.
"Okay, don't worry about these issues anymore. When the Black Eyed King's treasure trove is revealed, we will know what he is up to.
Let's go, let's go back to the imperial capital and report back."
Evans greeted them, and everyone temporarily put aside their doubts and turned around to leave along the way they came.
… … … … …
In the palace of the Jinde Empire, an old man wearing a luxurious black robe and a black and gold crown sat on the throne.
There was a row of people standing under the throne, seemingly discussing something.
The old man on the throne is the current king of the Jinde Empire—Bert Leonard, also known as Leonard XXIII.
Leonard XXIII glanced at the people in front of the throne and said, "People from the opposite continent have come here, and the Black Eyed King's treasure is about to be opened. We don't have much time left.
We must start planning immediately to take down the Miracle Continent in one fell swoop."
A red-haired old man in front of the throne said, "Your Majesty, are we going to fully demonstrate our strength? Time is a little tight now. If we go to war with the two empires at the same time, I don't think we will gain any advantage."
Leonard XXIII glanced at the red-haired old man and said, "Quentin, who told you to go to war with the two empires first? Why don't you subdue the various small forces around us first
Then we will contact our allies among the barbarians and help them unify them first.
As long as the barbarians are united, we can use their power to suppress the two empires together.
As for the barbarian allies, when my emperor returns to the throne, they will soon submit to him."
The red-haired old man thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the people from the opposite continent are now attacking the sea area behind us. If we are at war with the two empires and are attacked by the people from the opposite continent, I think it will be difficult for us to stop them."
Bernard XXIII did not show any worry when he heard this. He just smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, Quentin. Just do what I tell you to do. The other side of the continent will soon be in chaos. By then, those forces will have trouble protecting themselves, so how can they cross the border and invade us?"
After hearing Bernard's words, the red-haired old man Quentin still had some doubts on his face, but he did not ask any more questions. He just bowed his head to accept the order and then left the palace.
After everyone left, Bernard XXIII still sat on the throne, his expression constantly changing, and no one knew what he was thinking.
… … … …
The Yaxi family's team quickly returned to the imperial capital of the Farant Empire. Instead of reporting back to the Yaxi family, they were taken directly to the royal palace of the Farant Empire.
Wesley stood in front of the palace, looking at the magnificent palace in front of him, with a complicated expression on his face.
This was Ye Li’s first time in the palace, and he was somewhat curious about this magnificent place.
When he saw the look on Wesley's face, he couldn't help but feel puzzled and asked, "Wesley, what's wrong with you?"
Wesley hesitated for a moment after hearing Ye Li's question, and then said, "Nothing, I just remembered some things from the past.
When my father was still alive, he used to take me in and out of the palace. Now, many years have passed, and the palace has not changed much, but my father is no longer alive. "
Hearing Wesley's answer, Ye Li's heart suddenly jumped. He thought of his father and couldn't help but feel a sore nose.
Just as the two of them were expressing their feelings, several guards came out of the palace, and then Evans led everyone in.
Soon, they arrived at the hall where the king usually held meetings with his ministers. An old man with a majestic demeanor was sitting on the throne. He was the King of the Farant Empire, Edwin Lucas.
The stern-faced old man standing in front of him was the Iron-blooded Duke Wellington Axi.
Erwin led everyone to Edwin Lucas, then took the lead and knelt on one knee to salute, saying: "Erwin Yaxi of the Yaxi family, greets His Majesty the King."
The people behind him also gave their names and half-knelt in greeting.
Ye Li was not used to the other party's etiquette, especially asking him to kneel on one knee, which really made him struggle for a long time.
Until the very end, Ye Li did not kneel down completely. The leg that was kneeling on one knee was always a finger's thickness away from the ground.
After seeing everyone saluting, Edwin Lucas waved his hand, motioning for everyone to stand up, and then said to Erwin: "Evans, long time no see. Thank you for leading the team this time."
Evans seemed to be very familiar with Edwin Lucas. After standing up, his movements were very casual and unrestrained.
“Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. It’s no big deal for me to make a trip. After all, I’m not too old to walk.
Thanks to your majesty, this operation went very smoothly and we have already obtained the second key."
Evans said to Edwin Lucas with a smile on his face.
Edwin Lucas was delighted when he heard this and said, “Hahaha, for every extra key you get, you will encounter less competition when you go to the Black Eyed King’s treasure place.
I am sure that the treasure of the Black-Eyed King will attract many forces to explore.
We are all going to the Evil Spirit Wasteland. We cannot send a large number of people, and only a small team can go there.
The teams heading there to explore must all have similar personnel configurations, so we can't gain much advantage in terms of manpower, and we will be in equal competition with everyone.
At that time, every fewer enemy troops will be a good thing for us."
