Chapter 446 - 444: Sealing Heaven Five Daoist Doors

As the Little Ghost inspected everyone’s items one by one, Li Qiye was staring intently at the Copper Coffin the Little Ghost had brought out. In fact, the moment the Little Ghost produced the Copper Coffin, Li Qiye’s eyes had widened. A profoundly deep light flickered within them, as if he were trying to see through the coffin to what lay inside.

Li Qiye scrutinized the Copper Coffin, not missing a single detail. He examined it over and over again.

By now, the Little Ghost had just about seen everyone’s offerings. Only two items had managed to pique his interest: one belonged to Prince Shen Ran, and the other was Qing Jinzi’s eye.

This couldn’t help but excite Prince Shen Ran and Qing Jinzi. They both had a great chance.

"Sigh, you all have too few good things." The Little Ghost finally glanced at the item Prince Shen Ran had obtained in Fengdu City. He was slightly tempted, but not particularly fond of it. After all, the contents of his Copper Coffin were far too precious.

Meanwhile, Prince Shen Ran was ecstatic. ’If the Little Ghost wants to trade,’ he thought, ’then I have the best shot!’

"If Senior finds it insufficient, I can bring out a few more items I obtained from Fengdu City," Prince Shen Ran said, unable to wait.

"That will depend on what they are," the Little Ghost said with a nod.

"How about we make a bet?" Just as Prince Shen Ran was about to take out his other items, Li Qiye spoke up, addressing the Little Ghost.

Prince Shen Ran was instantly displeased. He said coldly, "Human Race brat, step aside. Can’t you see I’m making a trade with Senior?"

Li Qiye didn’t even bother to look at him. He said to the Little Ghost, "This junk isn’t even worth mentioning. Don’t you think you’d be getting the short end of the stick trading for it? Why don’t we make a bet instead? I guarantee you’ll be satisfied."

The moment Li Qiye said this, not only Prince Shen Ran, but also Qing Jinzi and the others’ expressions changed drastically. Li Qiye’s words had offended all of them.

Prince Shen Ran and Qing Jinzi’s gazes sharpened. Qing Jinzi sneered, "A Human Race ant dares to be so shameless."

A murderous glint appeared in Prince Shen Ran’s eyes as he said coldly, "Whatever you have to say can wait until I’m finished with my transaction with Senior. Don’t interrupt!"

Of course, Prince Shen Ran desperately wanted the Copper Coffin. The Little Ghost was clearly a bit tempted, and now, at this critical juncture, Li Qiye had to stick his nose in. How could he not be furious?

"So, are we betting or not?" Li Qiye completely ignored Prince Shen Ran and the others, speaking directly to the Little Ghost.

The Little Ghost couldn’t help but look at Li Qiye. With a wave of his hand, he silenced the crowd. This enraged Prince Shen Ran, and his killing intent intensified. Li Qiye had ruined his good fortune; how could that not infuriate him? As the saying goes, obstructing someone’s path to wealth is like killing their parents.

"How do we bet?" The Little Ghost was intrigued. Although he had been slightly tempted by Prince Shen Ran’s item, he still felt it wasn’t good enough.

Li Qiye smiled and said, "I’ll guess what’s in your coffin. If I guess right, the Copper Coffin is mine. If I guess wrong, I’ll compensate you with an item."

"Hmph, a Human Race junior. What kind of treasure could you possibly have? Don’t waste Senior’s time." Prince Shen Ran sneered, "Senior, I still have several other good items from Fengdu City. Why don’t you take a look?"

The Little Ghost waved his hand, telling Prince Shen Ran to shut up. This made the prince both angry and resentful; he wished he could just annihilate Li Qiye right now! He had watched the duck, cooked and on his plate, fly away.

"I wonder what you’ll be using as your wager," the Little Ghost said slowly, his interest piqued.

Li Qiye took out a Treasure Bottle and handed it to the Little Ghost, saying with a faint smile, "Take a look. I’m sure you’ll take the bet."

The Little Ghost took the Treasure Bottle, opened it, and took a look. His expression changed dramatically. He then stoppered the bottle, took a deep breath, and said to Li Qiye, "We have a bet!"

Li Qiye just smiled. This was all within his expectations. The Treasure Bottle contained Starry Universe Water. This was something that could even tempt an Immortal Emperor, let alone the Little Ghost. And it wasn’t just the Starry Universe Water; the bottle itself was an extraordinary treasure. A bottle capable of holding Starry Universe Water—how incredible must that be!

This Treasure Bottle was also a welcoming gift to Li Qiye from the War God Hall!

Of course, the others had no idea what was inside Li Qiye’s bottle. In fact, Qiu Rong Wanxue was also very curious about what was inside it. What made her even more curious, however, was what was inside the Copper Coffin.

Before this, the Little Ghost had brought out a total of seven items for trade. Aside from the first one, Li Qiye hadn’t been moved by the other six. This one, however, had clearly caught his interest.

This made Qiu Rong Wanxue wonder what on earth could move Li Qiye so much.

"Alright, make your guess." After returning the Starry Universe Water to Li Qiye, the Little Ghost said with some impatience.

This turn of events made Prince Shen Ran hate Li Qiye to the bone. His perfectly good deal had been ruined by this suicidal fool!

Li Qiye put away the Starry Universe Water and said with a smile, "Let’s not rush. I’ll take a look at your Copper Coffin first."

Without another word, the Little Ghost immediately agreed, saying, "As long as you can guess it, this Copper Coffin is yours." In truth, he greatly desired Li Qiye’s Starry Universe Water. A single cup of it would tempt anyone, even an Immortal Emperor.

Li Qiye stood before the Copper Coffin and reached out, gently stroking it as if caressing a lover’s skin. He caressed the coffin for a moment before closing his eyes to feel it.

Moment by moment, time ticked by. Li Qiye remained standing there silently, feeling the Copper Coffin with his eyes closed.

"If you can’t do it, just give up already! Don’t waste everyone’s time," Prince Shen Ran barked coldly. He was growing impatient. Of course, he hoped Li Qiye wouldn’t guess correctly. If Li Qiye failed, he would still have a chance to get the Copper Coffin.

"Shut up—" the Little Ghost snapped rudely at Prince Shen Ran, cutting him off.

Being reprimanded like this, Prince Shen Ran lost face but didn’t dare to lash out. A moment ago, the Little Ghost had thrown dozens of people out of the Central City. Anyone could see that the Little Ghost was unfathomably powerful and could crush them with ease. Therefore, no one was willing to offend him.

Prince Shen Ran couldn’t afford to offend the Little Ghost, but he looked down on Li Qiye completely. Thus, he directed all his resentment toward Li Qiye. ’This Human Race ant,’ he thought, ’I’ll eliminate him sooner or later!’

After a good while, Li Qiye opened his eyes, a faint smile on his face.

"You can start guessing now. As long as you guess right, it’s yours," the Little Ghost said hurriedly. He was even afraid Li Qiye might go back on his word. The Starry Universe Water—he needed something like that desperately.

Qiu Rong Wanxue couldn’t help but hold her breath, growing tense. She began to worry for her young master. If he guessed wrong, the loss would be immense.

Li Qiye gently tapped the Copper Coffin and finally said leisurely, "If I’m not mistaken, this thing has a very ancient origin. It once sealed an entire realm." He paused here before continuing, "Its name is: the Five Heaven-Sealing Daoist Sects!"

The Little Ghost was stunned for a moment, then gave a bitter smile and murmured, "To think there’s still someone in this world who recognizes this item!" He took a deep breath, looked up at Li Qiye, and said, "A bet’s a bet. I’ll admit defeat. This Copper Coffin is yours." Although he was reluctant, he was still a graceful loser.

"Then I thank you," Li Qiye said with a smile, accepting the Copper Coffin without any ceremony. In truth, he hadn’t expected to encounter this item today. The Five Heaven-Sealing Daoist Sects—what an ancient legend!

At this moment, everyone was dying to see what was inside Li Qiye’s Copper Coffin, but he showed no intention of opening it. He had already put it away, which made many people grind their teeth in frustration. Countless people now looked at Li Qiye with hostility.

Even though no one present had heard of the Five Heaven-Sealing Daoist Sects, they knew it had to be an incredible treasure just by hearing that it had once sealed an entire realm.

"Alright, time for the last item." The Little Ghost took a deep breath, feeling a deep sense of regret for not obtaining the Starry Universe Water.

The Little Ghost said in a deep voice, "This final coffin is absolutely worth you bringing out the most precious things in the world. Show me everything you obtained in Fengdu City!"

This time, the Little Ghost directly mentioned items from Fengdu City. He had indeed come specifically for things from Fengdu City.

As soon as the Little Ghost finished speaking, everyone cast aside their reservations and took out the items they had gotten from Fengdu City. Instantly, auras of treasure pulsed, glowing with myriad colors. The items everyone presented were of all shapes and kinds.

"This is the last coffin." The Little Ghost took out the final coffin. It was unexpectedly a Small Wooden Coffin that looked quite unremarkable. This Small Wooden Coffin was only the size of a palm and was purple. Although it was palm-sized, it was very exquisite, like a work of art. There were patterns carved on the Small Coffin. In fact, the patterns didn’t look carved at all; it was as if they were a natural part of the Small Wooden Coffin, perfectly integrated.

Seeing such a Small Wooden Coffin, everyone couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed. After all, this was the final coffin. They had expected a treasure coffin, but instead, it was a Small Wooden Coffin that didn’t look the least bit remarkable.

"Don’t just judge by its appearance," the Little Ghost said slowly. "Even if you brought out every single thing from Fengdu City, it might not be enough to trade for this Small Coffin of mine."

The eight treasures he had brought out before were already extraordinary. Now that the Little Ghost had said this, everyone realized that this Small Wooden Coffin must be absolutely incredible.

"Senior, please take a look. This is everything I obtained in Fengdu City." Prince Shen Ran immediately took out the things he had gotten from Fengdu City.

"No, there’s more—" Prince Shen Ran immediately had his disciples take out everything they had obtained in Fengdu City. He hurriedly arranged them before the Little Ghost and said, "Senior, this is everything. As long as you’re willing, you can have it all in exchange!"
