"Check." Di Jie’s voice was already devoid of emotion; those who knew him understood that Di Jie was furious to a certain extent to sound like this.

The Fourth Layer was completely different from the previous three layers.

Because, the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Layers were guarded by Emperor Wu.

And Emperor Wu and Di Heng were summoned together by Di Jie.

From the moment Emperor Wu and Di Heng were summoned until now, it had barely been the time of a Stick of Incense, very brief.

Unless the thief was divine, it was almost impossible for them to have had time to steal.

Moreover, the Mysterious Divine Lock of the Fourth Layer wasn’t on the same level as those of the previous three layers.

The chance of theft from the Fourth Layer was extremely slim.

However, Di Jie was still worried!

He dared not be one hundred percent sure!

Only seeing with his own eyes would confirm it.

After all, before entering the Emperor’s Treasure Abyss, everyone, including Di Jie himself, thought the thief stole at most from the First Level. And what happened? The first three layers were cleaned out completely.

Emperor Wu stood beside Di Heng, very tense. After all, the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth layers were guarded by him.

Emperor Wu had begun to pray silently.

Soon.

The group arrived before the Fourth Layer.

Di Jie himself was also tense, watching his hand holding the key, there seemed to be a slight tremor.

Starting from the Fourth Layer, the treasures stored within were all Supreme Treasures.

Losing one would cause him heartache enough to kill.

"Azure Heaven above!" Di Jie uttered this devoutly as he unlocked it.

He began praying to the Azure Heaven.

This was rare.

At least, it was the first time the elders, the supreme elders, and others present had seen the family head pray to the Azure Heaven.

Moments later.

The Mysterious Divine Lock of the Fourth Layer was opened, the door slowly opened.

The Di Family higher-ups at the door were all tense to the extreme, the air seemed to solidify.

Then...

"No!!" Di Jie let out a shrill howl, his body trembled, nearly falling to the ground.

The top members of the Di Family behind him were all on the verge of collapse, their eyes nearly popped out.

How could this be?!

How could this be?

The Fourth Layer was also empty.

Nothing left.

If Emperor Wu hadn’t been supported by Di Heng, he really would have collapsed.

The Fourth Layer, the Fourth Layer he had been guarding, was stolen too?

"Ahhhhh... Su Chen!!! I swear, I will make you suffer the cruelest pain in the world!" Di Jie lost control, completely lost control, roaring in rage.

The top members of the Di Family behind Di Jie dared not breathe.

Then.

Di Jie sped up.

Towards the Fifth Layer.

Since the Fourth Layer was stolen, then the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, even Eighth and Ninth Layers could also have been stolen; after all, that’s when Emperor Wu and Di Yang left together, and during that time, the Fourth Layer was unguarded, the Fifth, Sixth, Seventh, Eighth, Ninth Layers were all left unattended.

Soon.

The Fifth Layer was opened.

Empty!

Also empty!

This time, Di Jie didn’t howl, but his eyes were blood-red, his Mysterious Qi was wildly fluctuating.

Without a word, Di Jie continued towards the Sixth Layer.

The Sixth Layer was still empty.

"Damn!!!" Di Jie’s eyes nearly bled, unable to hold back, he howled, punching at the empty ground of the Sixth Layer; the Sixth Layer seemed to collapse, shaking as if in an earthquake.

Behind Di Jie, some of the Di Family higher-ups, including a timid Nineteenth Elder, had fainted.

The Di Family.

Grief-stricken.

The first six layers were stolen.

The Di Family’s treasures accumulated over billions of years, the pride of the Emperor’s Treasure Abyss, were more than half lost!

It’s still unknown what happened to the back three layers?

The remaining hope for the Di Family higher-ups now is that the back three layers weren’t stolen, wishing they weren’t, wishing desperately to kneel and beg the Azure Heaven.

"Open!" Di Jie dragged his heavy body towards the Seventh Layer, unlocking the complex Mysterious Divine Lock of the Seventh Layer.

Then...

Di Jie fell into silence.

Fury at its peak turned into silence.

But after a breath of silence.

Splatter...

Di Jie spat a mouthful of fresh blood.

Scarlet and blinding. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

The smell of blood permeated the air.

Di Jie, enraged, suffered an internal attack due to anger, got injured.

His internal organs were injured.

His face became pale.

"Di Jie’s failure to protect the Di family’s ancestors!!!" Di Jie’s voice cried blood, clenched his fists tightly, with a terrifying aura shaking like a nuclear bomb explosion, the Di Family’s higher-ups retreated madly.

The family head enraged, the family head losing control, too frightening.

"Seventh Layer also stolen?" Di Heng shook his head bitterly, the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth Layers were guarded by him.

Precisely because of this, Di Heng knew how shocking the treasures in the Seventh Layer were.

He, Di Heng, such a monster, the strongest successor of the era, could only look at the treasures in the Seventh Layer, couldn’t even imagine them...

Now stolen by someone!

Like dreaming.

Nightmare.

A huge nightmare.

"Thud thud thud..." After several breaths, Di Jie seemed to regain some rationality, wiping away the fresh blood at the corner of his mouth, his footsteps heavy, thudding as he went towards the Eighth Layer.

Soon.

The Eighth Layer was opened.

Empty!

Still completely empty.

"Hahaha... Hahahahahaha... Hahahahahaha... Di Family’s billion-year accumulation, destroyed in an instant, destroyed in an instant!!!" Di Jie laughed madly, frenziedly as if he had lost his mind, even his hair was disheveled.

Di Jie’s face twisted in a maniacal grin.

Inside Emperor’s Treasure Abyss, the Ninth Layer had only one Life-and-Death Reversing Pill.

All other treasures were in the first eight layers.

The first eight layers were all empty.

This meant that since the first generation of ancestors till now, through countless generations and over billions of years, the treasures accumulated by the efforts of numerous Di Family members were all gone, completely empty.

Di Jie truly was a sinner of the Di Family.

The greatest sinner.

The Di Family was finished.

Half of the empire was gone.

Not far away, the elders and supreme elders of the Di Family were also all filled with death energy, chuckling miserably, bitterly, fresh blood at the corners of their mouths, those who collapsed collapsed, those who lost control lost control.

It took several voices of breathing.

"Family... Family... Family head, take a look at the Ninth Layer! The Ninth Layer has the Life-and-Death Reversing Pill!" One supreme elder spoke up, bracing himself.

Life-and-Death Reversing Pill.

This was the most important thing for the Di Family.

Also, the biggest task of the Di Family in the last ten million years.

One Life-and-Death Reversing Pill could let that old ancestor extend life for another generation.

If that old ancestor could extend life for another generation, the Di Family would still be a family in the Grand Cosmos World.

If that old ancestor died, the Di Family wouldn’t even qualify as a Ninth Rank Power in the Grand Cosmos World.

It could be said, that Life-and-Death Reversing Pill was everything to the Di Family!

It was everything to the Di Family in this era!

The Di Family paid a huge price for that Life-and-Death Reversing Pill.

Just the Heavenly and Earthly Treasures used numbered over nineteen thousand.

For those nineteen thousand Heavenly and Earthly Treasures, the Di Family combined over ten million years, spanned over a dozen generations, cost at least a hundred elders, and dozens of supreme elders.

Even the previous generation’s family head died for the Life-and-Death Reversing Pill, the previous generation’s family head went alone to a dangerous place in the Grand Cosmos World for a particular medicinal ingredient for the Life-and-Death Reversing Pill.

Eventually, the previous generation’s family head, did not return alive.

Life-and-Death Reversing Pill!!!

It was the future destiny of the Di Family.

It was the foundation of the Di Family.

The Life-and-Death Reversing Pill must not have problems.

Now, the first eight layers were stolen, could the Ninth Layer really still be preserved?

No one dared to say.
