[Ding! The Basin of Greed has begun advancing!]

[This advancement has triggered Millionfold Boost!]

[The Basin of Greed has advanced to Chaos Spirit Treasure-grade!]

"Chaos Spirit Treasure-grade?"

After reading the notification, Daniel drew in a deep breath.

This meant that with the Chaos Spirit Treasure-grade Basin of Greed, he could now forcibly seize even Divine-grade treasures of the same level.

The Basin of Greed’s plundering ability must have reached an extraordinarily terrifying level.

With that thought, Daniel immediately opened its detailed information panel.

[Basin of Greed]

[Quality]: Chaos Spirit Treasure

[Type]: All Attributes

[Effects]:

Ignores all rules and restrictions to forcibly seize an unlimited number of Divine-grade treasures below its own grade.

The current maximum grade it can contain is Chaos Spirit Treasure-grade.

After advancing, the Basin of Greed now contains an extremely high-stage Law of Creation.

It has a certain probability of randomly advancing one treasure by a single grade. The resulting treasure cannot exceed the grade of the Basin of Greed itself.

Cooldown: Ten thousand years.

This effect will trigger randomly once every ten thousand years. Further advancements can reduce the cooldown to one thousand years.

This effect is currently on cooldown.

When facing a sacred treasure one grade above itself, the Basin of Greed can provide a certain degree of resistance or weaken the treasure’s specific abilities.

After devouring a treasure, the Basin of Greed can produce a Divine-grade treasure whose grade does not exceed its own.

The same treasure cannot be devoured repeatedly, and treasures produced through this effect cannot receive Millionfold Boost.

Every treasure stored within the Basin of Greed will obtain the Sacred Treasure Spirit characteristic.

A Sacred Treasure Spirit can independently seize other Divine-grade treasures of the same quality or with similar effects on behalf of the owner.

Upon sensing such a treasure, it will act automatically and unleash Strength comparable to the full-force strike of a Divine-grade expert, forcibly plundering the treasure from its current owner.

...

After reading the Basin of Greed’s updated description, Daniel was extremely satisfied.

The first effect was especially powerful.

It had directly transformed the Basin of Greed into a treasure capable of forcibly seizing other Divine-grade treasures.

In other words, even if the current Basin of Greed encountered a peak-grade Primordial Supreme Treasure, it could forcibly take it away.

The second effect was equally useful.

It could randomly advance one high-quality Divine-grade treasure, although it still required a cooldown of ten thousand years.

The third effect had not changed much.

As for the fourth effect, it was a completely new ability that the original Basin of Greed had not possessed.

As long as it devoured a treasure, it could randomly generate another treasure of the same grade.

However, the generated treasure could not exceed the Basin of Greed’s own grade.

In principle, this meant it could produce Divine-grade treasures up to the level of peak-grade Primordial Supreme Treasures.

There were also several restrictions.

For example, it could not repeatedly devour the same kind of treasure, and the generated treasure could not receive Millionfold Boost.

Daniel did not particularly care about those limitations.

After all, even a Primordial Supreme Treasure-grade Divine-grade treasure was already extremely useful to him.

The personal Divine-grade treasures used by T7 Oracle-grade experts were generally only comparable to Primordial Supreme Treasures.

Even ordinary high-stage Oracle-grade experts might not possess a Chaos Spirit Treasure-grade Basin of Greed like the one Daniel now held.

At most, many of them would possess only a few Primordial Spirit Treasures.

The Basin of Greed’s fifth effect was equally impressive.

Every treasure devoured by it would awaken a Treasure Spirit.

A Treasure Spirit was effectively an artifact spirit capable of ensuring that a treasure’s full power was perfectly unleashed.

During battle, it could even independently release an attack comparable to the full-force strike of a Divine-grade expert.

Daniel could imagine casually releasing hundreds of sacred treasures while their Treasure Spirits controlled them on his behalf.

He would no longer need to divide his attention among them.

Of course, the more powerful a sacred treasure was, the more difficult it would normally be for an artifact spirit to awaken within it.

However, with the Basin of Greed, Daniel did not need to worry too much about that problem.

He was extremely pleased with the advanced treasure.

After putting it away, Daniel finally turned his gaze toward the shattered corpse of the mysterious expert nearby.

This was the first time Daniel had relied entirely upon his own Strength to personally kill a T7 high-stage Oracle-grade expert.

Admittedly, the man had been suppressed by the Great Dao rules and could display only Divine Sovereign-level cultivation.

Even so, his true existence had still belonged to T7 Oracle-grade.

Yet Daniel had personally killed him.

"An Oracle-grade corpse is also an excellent treasure."

"I should collect it carefully."

Daniel raised his hand and prepared to gather the shattered remains of the high-stage Oracle-grade expert.

He remembered that an Oracle-grade expert had once invited him to visit a sacred ground at some point in the future.

According to that expert, the sacred ground had gradually formed from the corpse of a T8 Oracle-grade powerhouse.

Daniel had never forgotten that secret.

Although the mysterious expert’s corpse had not reached T8, it had still belonged to a T7 existence.

"Because of the Great Dao laws, this corpse currently possesses only Divine Sovereign-level power."

"However, once it leaves this plane and returns to the future era, it will escape the Great Dao’s suppression."

"At that point, this Divine Sovereign-level corpse will naturally revert to the corpse of a T7 Oracle-grade expert."

"That alone makes it no less valuable than an entire mountain of treasures."

With that thought, Daniel raised his hand once again and attempted to gather all the fragments.

However, the moment his Divine Sense touched them, he suddenly sensed an oppressive aura originating from a Great Dao Tribulation Source.

"Something is wrong."

Daniel immediately withdrew his Divine Sense.

Only then did he remember an important detail.

Whether it was Daniel himself or the other Oracle-grade experts, every existence that crossed the River of Time and descended into this era was bound by the Great Dao rules.

The first restriction forcibly limited their cultivation to Divine-grade.

The second was that every realm-crosser had a Great Dao Tribulation Source forcibly planted within their body.

Daniel had originally assumed that the Great Dao Tribulation Source would disappear upon the death of an Oracle-grade expert.

He had never expected it to remain even after the corpse had been shattered into fragments.

This meant his plan to collect the Oracle-grade body had truly failed.

A Great Dao Tribulation Source was not something he could casually provoke.

"Hiss... What a waste!"

"This is practically destroying a priceless treasure!"

Daniel watched the fragments being scattered into the void, his heart aching terribly.

That had been the corpse of a T7 Oracle-grade expert!

"Forget it."

"Ultimately, avoiding unnecessary trouble is more important."

"I should refrain from touching the corpses of these realm-crossers in the future."

Only then did Daniel remember something else.

After killing the mysterious expert, he seemed to have obtained one hundred points.
