Chapter 1075 - 27: Harvesting the Wealth of a World
The sealed items in the Desolate Domain World are highly valuable, but the current problem is that this seal is also at a high level.
Once the Power of Deathly Silence appears, it cannot be removed.
Of course, there’s nothing absolute in this world. If one is as strong as the Guardian Spirit, they could recreate heaven and earth with a single strike, so nothing is impossible.
But at least one must be on Wutong’s level to grow to such an extent.
However, when Wutong grows to that extent, who knows how long it will take. By that time, she might not even need these sealed items anymore.
Lin Rui could only put it away and walk into the Prophet Tree House.
The Prophet Tree House is set up on a massive plant, but this plant is still quite different from the Elf.
That’s because this plant looks alive. In this world filled with the Power of Deathly Silence, what is a plant that looks alive like?
Its roots are exposed above the ground, looking like the legs of a tree, ready to run off at any moment.
Indeed, this plant is like one of the plant-type soldiers summoned by the Prophet. It looks dangerous and restless.
Lin Rui led his troops into the tree house. An old little head promptly hid behind a cabinet, poking a terrified head out to look at Lin Rui and asked, "Are you a person or a ghost?"
Lin Rui clicked his tongue and sighed, "That’s a question I should be asking you, right?"
The little old man shook his head repeatedly, "What nonsense! Haven’t you heard that super short sci-fi horror story? The last human on the planet sits alone in a room, and suddenly there’s a knock on the door..."
"In such a situation, whatever is knocking would be terrifying, right?"
Lin Rui rolled his eyes, saying, "Terrifying? I just see a massive logical flaw. How could he be sure he is the last person on the planet? I’m a Lord and can’t even confirm where every citizen is within a few thousand kilometers. How could an ordinary person know he’s the last one?"
Hearing Lin Rui’s words, the old man realized that he was probably just scaring himself.
Then he came out from behind the table and said to Lin Rui, "Hello, I am the last Prophet of the Prophet Tree House...I think."
With a peaked cap covering most of his face, only a long white beard reaching his toes was visible.
At this moment, Lin Rui was somewhat inclined to believe he was the last Prophet. At least, he hadn’t seen anyone else for thousands of years, which explained his shabby appearance.
With no other people around, there’s no need to worry about one’s personal image.
Lin Rui examined him and said, "I am the Lord of the Golden Pansy Domain. How have you stayed in this world for so long?"
The Old Prophet was not despondent, even sounding quite cheerful, "Why not? There are lots of books in this tree house, and it connects to the Library Garden in the Celestial Realm. I can read books from the Heavens and Myriads of Realms with knowledge to keep me company. I can stay as long as I want, and with the Silent Death Legion guarding the entrance, no one disturbs me. I don’t know how much more relaxed it could be."
"..." Lin Rui was speechless, realizing the monster he thought he had killed was actually considered a watchdog in the Prophet’s eyes.
"I struggled to get into this Prophet Tree House; there must be some reward mechanism?"
"Reward mechanism?" The Old Prophet thought for a long time, scratching his head embarrassedly and replied, "It’s been so long that I don’t remember. There should be some reward mechanism, but it’s been almost ten thousand years since anyone came by, and I’ve read too many books to remember my mission clearly."
"You don’t remember?" Lin Rui gestured to a Knight, who promptly drew his longsword and held it to the Prophet’s neck, asking, "Old man, I think you’re feigning amnesia, perhaps you’ve hidden the rewards yourself?"
Seeing this, the Old Prophet quickly raised his hands, saying, "Don’t get excited, don’t get excited. I remember the Emperor indeed tasked me with something so that visiting warriors would gain certain benefits to fight the Silent Death Legion. But I honestly can’t recall the specific benefits. How about you just take whatever you find in this tree house?"
"Just take it?" Lin Rui smiled and waved, "Take all the books here. Our Divine Ancient Dragon Library could use a large number of books."
Hearing this, the Old Prophet hurriedly said, "There are millions of books here. You can’t take them all."
Lin Rui’s eyes brightened instead. The characteristic of the Divine Ancient Dragon Library is that the more books there are, the stronger the effect. Millions of books could provide a significant amount of Experience Books and Universal Experience Books to the domain.
This Old Prophet is probably providing Lin Rui with as much benefit as the entirety of the Wizard World’s trade.
As the soldiers began collecting, Lin Rui was overjoyed by the system notifications.

These were all the essence of a world, now effortlessly falling into Lin Rui’s hands.
