“Answer two questions for me.”
Meng Lei held up two fingers.
“The first: Where’s the imperial treasury?
“And the second: Where’s Dragon Island?”
“N-no, I can’t!”
Her pride as the empress of an empire barely managed to sustain the empress and prevent her from wetting herself in fear. She said, “The imperial treasury is an important place...”
Whoosh!
A golden light beam shot forth and instantly sliced apart the phoenix crown on the empress’ head, frightening her so badly that she collapsed onto the ground.
Sloosh...
A murky yellow liquid began to flow...
Chapter 209: Assimilating Laws of Nature, A Fallen Angel

A half-plane, as its name indicated, was an incomplete existential plane.
Half-planes could be either existential planes that had yet to mature, fragments of a complete existential plane that had broken or become destroyed, or existential planes whose nurturing process had failed and ended up deformed.
In general, no matter what kind of plane it was, as long as it was incomplete, then one could call them half-planes.
Dragon God Empire’s imperial treasury and the Dragons’ base, Dragon Island, were located in two half-planes. Their locations were extremely obscure, and only the empire’s high-ranking officials knew about them.
“I’ll go to the imperial treasury first!”
Meng Lei didn’t dally. He followed the empress’s directions, who had wet herself, arrived at an obscure underground palace, and found the magic circle that led to the treasury half-plane.
Buzz...
Upon activating the magic circle, the world spun, and then Meng Lei arrived at another world.
Gray, overcast skies and gray, overcast lands!
No magic elements present, incomplete laws of nature, and barely any air!
A half-plane like this evidently wasn’t suitable for any life form to live in. As a place for treasure storage, however, it was undoubtedly extremely suitable.
Firstly, there was no fear of moldiness. Secondly, there was no fear of deterioration. Thirdly, there was no fear of bugs or pests. Therefore, it was truly the best choice of location.
“That’s...”
Meng Lei immediately noticed several palaces standing tall and straight on the flat grounds with just a glance.
Big, tall, and lofty, they glittered gold like several mountains of gold and gave off a dazzling brilliance.
Meng Lei quickly flew over to the first palace. The gates were tightly shut, and two big words, “Weapon Hall” gilt in gold, were written in calligraphy on the 100-feet-tall gates that were constructed from pure gold. Magic power swirled around the gates—evidently, they had been engraved with a magic circle.
“Weapon Hall?”
Meng Lei made a grabbing motion in the air. At once, the 100-feet-tall gates made out of pure gold broke and dissipated with a boom, turning into gold powder residue that floated in the air and filled up the sky—before being collected by the system.
“Oh my goodness! Two gates alone are already worth 3 billion gold coins! This is incredible! Incredible!”
Meng Lei couldn’t help but gasp after taking a glance at the stats interface. Just the gates alone were already this extravagant, let alone the contents within?
He quickly walked into the Weapon Hall, which was separated into two sub-halls, the Saint Domain-Level Magic Devices Hall and the Half-Divine Weapon Hall.
Upon entering the Saint Domain-Level Magic Devices Hall, what filled his sight were sabers, spears, swords, halberds, axes, rods, and staffs... There was a dazzling array of weapons and contained everything one could possibly think of.
Filled with magic power and the fluctuations of elements, every one of them was a Saint Domain-level magic device!
Apart from these were dozens of spatial rings. He picked up a random one to discover that it was actually a spatial ring with an extra-large space inside that spanned as wide as over 1,000 cubic meters.
“If I were to auction this off, surely it can fetch at least a few dozen billions?”
Meng Lei clicked his tongue in wonder as he remarked, “What a shame that it was actually kept in here as part of a collection.”
“Collect!”
“Collect!”
“Collect!”
There was no reason why he should let any of them off with so much good stuff here, of course. By the time Meng Lei walked out of the Saint Domain-Level Magic Devices Hall, it was already all empty inside.
He didn’t leave behind even the feather duster meant for cleaning off dust, let alone a magic device.
Duh, even the feather duster’s handle was forged from pure gold and was very much precious and valuable. Who would bear to discard it?
“The Half-Divine Weapon Hall!”
Compared to the dazzling array of Saint Domain-level magic devices, there were much fewer half-divine weapons there. They numbered only about ten, and most of them were even magic staffs.
“The Sky Staff!”
Meng Lei picked up one of the magic staffs. Wind-elemental power of divinity ebbed and flowed on the cyan-colored staff’s surface...
“This is probably forged using a wind-elemental half-deity Magical Beast’s rib bones and magic core. Just the material alone is already something extremely rare! It’s a pretty good half-divine weapon. Alright, I’ll take it.”
Almost all the other half-divine weapons were also forged from half-deity materials. Were they to be auctioned off, they would definitely fetch a frighteningly high astronomical price.
“Collect!”
After exiting the Weapon Hall, Meng Lei didn’t spare even the palace itself that was made out of pure gold.
The palace fell apart with a snap of his fingers and turned into golden sand that filled up the sky before being collected by the system.
“Just the palace alone is worth one trillion gold coins! The Dragons... are really too goddamn extravagant!”
Then, he came to the second palace.
“Laws of Nature Origin Crystal Hall!”
Meng Lei’s breathing turned heavy and ragged at once. Unlike the Saint Domain-level magic devices and half-divine weapons, Laws of Nature Origin
