"Let's do it!" Qin Xi said when the hour was almost up.
Mo Tiange glanced at him. Seeing his determined expression, she also felt like staking everything on one throw.
Let's do it!
Aren't they just two supreme spiritual treasures?
Even if they don't have them, they still have to advance to the Deification Realm!
With that thought, she took out the token, erased the restriction on the Jadebone Puppet Technique, put the book away, and took out the Holy Spirit Nephrite.
After putting away the things, the two of them looked at each other and couldn't help but sigh. Seeing each other sigh, they smiled at each other.
Although they made up their minds to bet, they were still a bit nervous about the outcome. After all, the price was too high.
"Let's go!" Qin Xi said, "Let's leave quickly while they come in to choose the treasures."
"En." Mo Tiange also thought so.
The others entered the storehouse. This many treasures were enough to buy them some time. They had to leave far away during this time. Otherwise, it would be really unsafe to stay with a group of people who were stronger than them.
"Wait!" Fu Yaozi's voice rang in their minds again. "…"
"The hour is up."
Outside the storehouse, Scholar Yu knocked the folding fan in his hand and looked at the others. "Fellow Daoists, shall we go in now?"
Master Daoist Yuanmu and the others were resting with their eyes closed. When they heard this, they opened their eyes, which shone brightly.
Venerable Avidya also smiled and looked at the stone door.
Then, these late stage Nascent cultivators opened the stone door one by one and went inside in a line.
When they entered the storehouse, the light of the spiritual treasures dazzled everyone's eyes.
Even though they were the top Nascent Late Stage cultivators in the Mortal Realm and had seen countless Spiritual Treasures, they still felt their hearts palpitate in the face of these innumerable treasures that surpassed the realm of Nascent Soul. Even someone as cunning as Reverend Yuan Mu could not restrain his greed.
Needless to say, as long as they had a few spiritual treasures here, they could laugh proudly in the human world!
After exclaiming, Scholar Yu looked at Master Daoist Yuanmu warily and then glanced at Venerable Avidya.
Venerable Avidya looked calm, but he suddenly opened his eyes and smiled at him.
This smile set Scholar Yu's heart at ease.
These treasures that were far beyond the current level of the Immortal Cultivation World were indeed hot-headed. If Jiuyan Sect relied on their own strength to snatch the token by force, he was not confident that he could escape unscathed. However, if he had the support of Reverend Wu Ming, things would be different.
Jiuyan Sect had two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators and one mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator. Among them, Ling Shiyu was injured and did not have much combat strength. If the Buddhist and Confucian duo joined forces, they would have two late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, which was enough to contend against Jiuyan Sect.
At this time, Reverend Yuan Mu's gaze also swept over the two of them. In the end, he wisely put away the greed in his eyes and said to them with a smile, "Fellow Daoists, there are so many treasures here, we don't have to be polite. Let's hurry."
The three of them nodded and smiled. Then, they led their juniors to look through the treasures in the treasury.
At this moment, Ling Yunhe, who was following beside Spiritual Master Yuan Mu, looked around and suddenly said, "Martial Uncle Yuan Mu, where are the three of them?"
Perfected Yuanmu was slightly taken aback before his expression changed.
When Scholar Yu and Revered Wu Ming heard this, they turned around as well.
Although the storeroom was huge and had layers of restrictions, they were all late Nascent Soul cultivators, so they could sense whether or not someone was inside.
Aside from them, there was no one else here!
Where did Mo Tiange and the other two go in the end?
They were always outside the storeroom, but they didn't see them come out at all!
"Mister Yu …" Master Yuan Mu looked at Scholar Yu.
Scholar Yu muttered to himself, "How's this possible?"
It was impossible for a big cultivation group's storeroom to have other exits. They also didn't find any other exits, so how could those three people disappear into thin air?
The restrictions inside the storeroom weren't to be trifled with.
Without needing to be told, Ling Yunhe, Han Shizhi, and Jue Wu began to run around. Although the storeroom was big, with the three of them working together, it didn't take them long to turn it upside down. They didn't find anything unusual at all.
The five Nascent Soul cultivators' expressions became even more grave.
The situation before their eyes was completely beyond their expectations. It even made them temporarily forget that the whole storeroom was filled with spiritual treasures!
The gap between realms was insurmountable. Even Nascent Soul cultivators like them felt the restrictions inside the storeroom were unfathomable. They were sure they were ancient restrictions that surpassed the Deification realm.
Surrounded by such restrictions, it was impossible for them to ignore the restrictions and leave the storeroom.
In that case, where did they go in the end?
Was there another passage inside the storeroom, or …
Scholar Yu looked at Master Yuan Mu and saw the same vigilance in his eyes. He knew that the two of them were thinking the same thing.
His expression didn't change as he sent a voice transmission through his divine sense, "Fellow Daoist Yuan Mu, are you thinking that they're still inside the storeroom?"
Master Yuan Mu nodded slightly and replied, "That's right. If they obtained some ancient spiritual treasure that can conceal their aura …"
At this point, the two of them looked a little gloomy.
If that was the case, the three of them definitely harbored evil intentions towards them.
"This old monk thinks that the two of you are worrying too much," Revered Wu Ming suddenly said.
Scholar Yu and Master Yuan Mu's voice transmission could not be heard by others, but with Revered Wu Ming's cultivation, it was not a problem.
Seeing that Revered Wu Ming had directly spoken, Scholar Yu looked around with some apprehension before saying, "Oh?
What do you think, Fellow Daoist Wu Ming? "
Revered Wu Ming said with a smile, "Among the three of them, one is mid-stage Nascent Soul, one is early-stage Nascent Soul, and one has yet to form his Nascent Soul. What means do they have to kill all of us without being able to resist?"
"Under normal circumstances, of course it's impossible," Master Yuan Mu said with a heavy voice.
"However, the three of them entered the storeroom earlier than us, so it's very likely that they obtained some kind of spiritual treasure …"
"If they relied on spiritual treasures, they wouldn't be able to do it unless those treasures could erupt with formidable power in an instant."
Revered Wu Ming said slowly, neither hurriedly nor slowly, "This place is the important storeroom of this Distant Past great cultivation group; it's heavily guarded."
The storeroom was an important place and heavily guarded. It absolutely wouldn't allow others to use magic weapons and spells at will — this was a common principle among every cultivation group.
Otherwise, if other treasures were destroyed, the foundation of a cultivation group would be damaged.
Master Yuan Mu's and Scholar Yu's expressions slowly eased.
If that was the case, no matter what method the three of them used to disappear inside the storeroom, they didn't need to pay attention to them anymore.
However, they inevitably felt it was a pity that the three of them took away some kind of spiritual treasure.
At this time, the three of them were in the middle of a fierce battle.
In the dark stone room, cultivators could only see several dozen feet ahead, but countless malicious devils were surging towards them.
The three of them stood back to back, each relying on their magic weapons to fight the devils.
"I say, Fellow Daoist Qingwei."
Although Jing Xingzhi had advanced into the Nascent Soul realm, he still habitually addressed Mo Tiange as his peer. It was unknown whether it was because of Qin Xi or because Mo Tiange was about to advance.
"What the hell is this place?
How can there be so many devils? "
"I don't know what's going on either."
Mo Tiange frowned. With two Nascent Soul cultivators by her side, they shared most of the devils, so she didn't feel much pressure. "Maybe it's been too long …"
When they were about to leave the storeroom, Fu Yaozi stopped her and told her there was a passage in the storeroom that led directly to the underground palace, which was the Vermilion Bird Sacrificial Temple.
Mo Tiange was overjoyed when she heard this news. She was worried she couldn't leave safely after obtaining the treasures. If that was the case, there was no need to meet Master Yuan Mu and the others.
Therefore, the three of them went directly to the underground palace from the storeroom. They planned to explore the underground palace first and then leave the palace through other exits.
But what they didn't expect was that not long after they went down to the underground palace, they found that the Primordial Devil Aura inside was seriously leaking and even attracted a group of devils.
Some of these devils were refined corpses, and some were demonized demonic beasts. Although their cultivation levels weren't very high, they were very difficult to deal with.
Thinking up to this point, Mo Tiange couldn't help but ask, "Master, letting me leave through this secret passage was something you planned long ago, wasn't it?
At that time, I was alone. If I encountered these devils after coming down, how could I leave safely? "
Fu Yaozi paused for a moment then answered with a bitter smile, "This was indeed my fault. When I went down to the underground palace, these devils weren't there, so …"
"So, Master, you never thought that after 100,000 years, this place would become unsafe.
If I really came down here alone, it would be fate for me to die here. "
Fu Yaozi didn't answer, which could be considered as a tacit agreement.
Mo Tiange secretly rolled her eyes. Fortunately, she was lucky. Qin Xi met her at the entrance, and before that, she also ran into Jing Xingzhi. With the two Nascent Soul cultivators by his side, although these devils were difficult to deal with, they weren't a problem.
They killed their way out of the stone room, killed their way through several passages, and finally killed all these devils.
The three of them heaved sighs of relief then found a safe place to sit cross-legged and adjust their breaths.
"Fellow Daoist Qingwei, what's going on? Shouldn't you tell me?" Jing Xingzhi asked as he closed his eyes to adjust his breath.
"Uh …" The matter of the Vermilion Bird Sacrificial Temple was indeed complicated.
"I didn't get any benefits from cooperating with you, but I had to fight here. You still won't tell me clearly — this is too unfair."
"What do you mean you didn't get any benefits?"
Qin Xi said with a snort, "At least you escaped the pursuit of that Deification refined corpse. Do you want me to settle the account with you first?"
"…" This time, Jing Xingzhi couldn't say anything.
When he was chased by that refined corpse, if Qin Xi didn't turn around and put a spiritual talisman to stop it, it would be hard to say whether he could escape or not.
In fact, it might not have saved his whole life, but at least half of it was saved.
Looking at Jing Xingzhi's speechless appearance, Mo Tiange suddenly felt a bit sorry for him.
In fact, Jing Xingzhi was really unlucky.
He used to be the brilliant disciple of Venerable Swordsman, a Nascent Soul cultivator of Gujian Sect. He was talented and had an extraordinary status.
Unexpectedly, his master died and he lost his backer. He was suppressed by his master's enemies everywhere, and his status plummeted.
Later, he cultivated to the late stage of the Core Formation realm by relying on his wisdom and temperament. If he could enter the Nascent Soul realm in one fell swoop, it would be considered a success. However, he was schemed against by Master Song Feng on Demonic Mountain with her. Not only did he not get any fated chances, but he also completely fell out with Gujian Sect's ruling faction on the way back and was seriously injured.
Because of his injuries, he couldn't even go back to his sect, so he had to find another place to go. He left the Celestial Pole and became an individual cultivator.
From a proud son of heaven to a wandering individual cultivator — people couldn't help but shed tears of sympathy for him.
This was fine — after all, everyone had bad times.
But the problem was, with Qin Xi next to him, he looked extremely pitiful.
The two of them were actually very similar. They were both brilliant disciples of Nascent Soul cultivators from famous cultivation groups, and they were both young and had high cultivation levels.
In terms of aptitude, Qin Xi definitely wasn't better than him. In terms of status, the two of them were originally about the same, but their encounters were really as different as heaven and earth.
When he left the Celestial Pole in a sorry state, Qin Xi had formed his Nascent Soul with boundless glory and became the Grand Supreme Elder of Xuanqing School.
Now, when they reunited in a foreign land, he was once again suppressed by Qin Xi.
If she were Jing Xingzhi, she would definitely sigh. The existence of a Qin Xi in this world was simply the Heavens deliberately trying to disgust him!
