Chapter 210 - Treasure Trove Space
Chapter 210 - Treasure Vault Space
At this moment, all the cultivators present held their breaths and stared intently at the golden bronze gate that revealed a gap.
Lu Chang'an stood behind the crowd and vaguely smelled a hint of stale medicinal herb flavor.
"Could it be a storehouse for storing herbs and pills?"
Real Hu's beard twitched slightly, his eyes shining brightly.
The six doors of this palace building likely correspond to six categories of storage treasures.
If the first one to be cracked is the Pill Chamber's secret vault, then luck would be good.
"Little friend Lu, please also send out your puppets to give it a try."
Realist Hu and Realist Tan exchanged brief words, pressing down their inner excitement and urgency.
The more critical this moment is, the more hasty one must not be.
"Lu Mou's scouting puppets have been used up, the puppets used afterward are worth more, these losses......"
Lu Changan hesitantly said.
"Don't worry! For the puppets lost in the Secret Realm, Realist Tan and I will compensate you in full. When you enter the pharmacy treasury later, you can be allowed to pick one more."
Grandmaster Hu quickly assured.
"I hope that Makoto keeps his promise."
Lu Chang'an nodded and took out a heavy-armored puppet of the late second stage and maneuvered it to the golden-bronze gate.
The heavy-armored puppet exerted force with its palms and slowly pushed the golden-bronze gate open, then stepped in.
Its figure was soon engulfed by the night pearl-like light of the room.
The material and formation of the hexagonal palace building itself had the effect of isolating divine sense.
Even a real person would not be able to detect it from the outside.
"It is indeed a medicine storehouse."
Lu Changan, as a puppeteer, had a connection with the puppet and could receive some basic information feedback.
Not long after, the heavily armored puppet went and returned, bringing back a vacant medicine basket.
"Not bad."
Real Tan was overjoyed, his body transformed into a stump, and he quickly swept into the treasure trove. "Real Tan!"
Real Hu's face changed, he had planned to let a Foundation Establishment cultivator go in to explore, but he didn't expect Real Tan to rush in first.
Tan Zhenran was the strongest, if he was the first to get the most important chance, then it would be passive.
Tan Zhengen went in and didn't trigger the forbidden system.
Seeing this, Realist Hu also flashed into the pill vault.
The long-haired, gauze-skirted Miss Wei followed closely behind.
The high nosed youth at the peak of Foundation Establishment and the flowery old man at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment stood outside the door and did not enter.
The two kept a constant eye on Lu Changan and Fairy Shi.
Since entering the relics, the two real people did not allow Lu Chang'an and Shi Manrong to act alone.
After all, there were still some unexplored dangerous areas within the ruins, so if they were allowed to act, there was no guarantee that they wouldn't cause uncontrollable variables.
"Fellow Daoist Lu isn't going in to take a look?"
Shi Manrong was a bit moved, and realized that Lu Changan was standing still with a lazy expression.
"There's no rush, it's useless to rush."
Lu Changan smiled.
Fairy Master pondered. If you are not strong enough, even if you grab the rare and precious pills first, it will be hard to keep them.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, the formation gate that was opened this time is completely different from the one that Real Qi temporarily broke open back then."
While the two real people were searching in the pill vault, Shi Manrong transmitted a voice message.
"Oh, you mean that the array gate that was broken open back then is not among these six?"
"Right! Real Qi discovered this relic much earlier, and had been exploring it for some time before my concubine, and may have grasped key information that we don't know."
Shi Manrong nodded.
The two of them only exchanged briefly.
Lu Chang'an let the ground rock rats follow Shi Manrong outside, and together they entered the treasury.
The ground rock rat had a sharper sense of smell, and through the spirit pet contract with it, Lu Changan understood the general situation inside the pill vault.
The space inside the Pill Vault was bigger than what was estimated from the outside.
It was divided into a number of areas, displaying hundreds of medicine cabinets, stacked from the ground upwards, extending dozens of feet high.
However, more than 90% of the medicine cabinets are empty.
The two real people and Miss Wei who entered first did manage to find some medicinal herbs and bottles and jars containing pills and potions.
However, most of the herbs had withered and decayed.
A few of the medicinal herbs and pills were relatively well preserved under the effects of the prohibition, but their medicinal properties were greatly lost.
"Foundation Building Pill? It's a pity that most of the medicinal properties have been lost."
Miss Wei took a jade bottle and poured out the dull-colored pills inside, shaking her head in regret.
In this medicine storehouse, second-order pills are more common.
Occasionally, third-order pills and herbs could be seen.
Lu Changan was mentally prepared for this situation.
This ancient relic, used as a refuge or a spare treasure trove, should have been abandoned a long time ago and forgotten over the long years.
Before the evacuation, most of the precious treasures that were easy to carry here were taken away by the owner.
Even if there were treasures kept in secret, they should have been hidden in the shadows, not located in such a conspicuous treasury that was attacked by a third-order formation master with a false dan cultivation.
......
After half a day of exploration.
The disappointment on the faces of the two real people became more and more obvious.
It is not that there is no harvest.
Some of the herbs and pills obtained in the medicine storehouse, even counting the loss of medicinal properties, is a rare fortune, selling tens of thousands of spirit stones is very easy.
The huge pill warehouse was less than half explored.
However, this is a far cry from the two real people's expectations.
What they wanted was a chance to take the False Pill one step further.
In the Immortal Cultivation World, there are heaven and earth spirits that can make the false pills go away smoothly, and even rare pills made by human beings.
This is extremely rare in today's Immortal Cultivation World, but in earlier times, it was relatively easy to obtain.
From the existing situation, it is impossible for this abandoned medicine storehouse to have that kind of precious thing.
"Thieving rat! Leave the demonic pills for this real person!"
Suddenly, a springy, thunderous, stern cry came from the treasury. Zee!
The ground rock rat darted out in panic, holding a dark purple oval sphere in its mouth, about the size of an adult's fist.
"Third-rank demon pills?"
Lu Changan's divine sense swept and saw the origin of this object.
Due to the dusty nature of the demonic pills, the exact origin and quality could not be seen for the time being.
The inner pills of demonic beasts can often be used as ingredients for alchemy, so it is not unusual for them to be found in the medicinal stores of ancient ruins.
"Little friend Lu, let your spirit pet hand over the third-rank demonic pills."
Real Tan chased after him with an unkind tone.
The Earth Rock Mouse handed over the demonic pills to Lu Changan and hid behind its master in fear.
Lu Chang'an took the demonic pills and initially identified that it should be left by a great demon in the middle to late third stage.
Unfortunately, the demonic power is severely lost and is not of the earth attribute.
"Little friend Lu, this is not something you should take."
Hu Zhen Zhen also came out from the treasury, perhaps did not meet the expectations, face gloomy, tone shows dissatisfaction.
"If Mister Lu remembers correctly, Real Hu just promised to make up for the loss of my puppet. After entering the Pill Vault, you will also be able to pick one more item."
Lu Chang'an took the demonic pills and said slowly and methodically.
Real Hu's expression stalled as he explained, "Those are two different things! When the relics are almost explored, then the compensation will be settled together."
"What's wrong with Mister Lu picking this item?"
"The value of a third-ranked demonic pill naturally cannot simply be offset as a share."
Realist Hu laughed lightly, "How about this, both you and Realist Tan have a share of this demonic dan, and it will be kept by the old man first."
"That's fine."
Lu Chang'an thought about it and threw the Demon Pill to Realist Hu.
The two real people were in an extremely bad mood right now, so if they fell out at this moment, they would have to start the war early, which would not be conducive to his plan.
Real Hu took the demonic elixir and used his divine sense to investigate, revealing a touch of joy.
The bloodline and good quality demon pills are strategic resources in the Immortal Cultivation world, and can be traded with True Dan practitioners and clan forces to help transform the pills into scarce spiritual objects.
Zee!
The ground rock rat rubbed against Lu Changan's clothes, seemingly somewhat aggrieved.
Lu Changan stroked its head and gave it a comforting look.
In fact, this demonic elixir is not particularly beneficial to the Ground Rock Rat due to its mismatched attributes.
It was just expressing its dissatisfaction at having its achievements taken away.
"Little friend Lu, you can go to the medicine store and pick another item on your own."
Real Hu put away the demonic pills and said generously.
Lu Chang'an didn't refuse, and together with the Ground Rock Rat, he went to the Pill Vault again.
At this time, the medicine store was only two thirds explored.
Lu Changan's Divine Sense, experience, and even the sense of smell of the Ground Rock Rat had advantages for obtaining high-value items that were unknown to outsiders.
Half an hour later.
Lu Changan found a black medicinal pot on the top floor of the medicine storehouse, and after a little recognition, he put it into his storage bag without moving.
The two real people noticed this scene and didn't pay much attention to it.
In this medicine storehouse, all pills and medicines have lost their medicinal properties.
The black pill pot that Lu Chang'an had obtained would not be worth much even if it was a rare third-order pill.
......
After a whole day, the medicine storehouse was explored.
Although it did not meet expectations, the value of the harvest was quite substantial, and the faces of the two real people eased.
Lu Changan made a wink with Fairy Shi.
Shifu Manrong understood and took the initiative to exchange ideas on how to break the formation with Real Hu.
"Are you saying that there might be a hidden formation door on this palace building?"
Real Hu raised his head and looked towards the top of the hexagonal palace building, where a pair of halos were suspended, with a blue crystal ball in the center, releasing a surging glow of spiritual energy.
"Concubine's guess, these six formation gates guarding the area, which is so conspicuous, should only be unusual treasury rooms. The true treasury should be hidden in the shadows."
Fairy Shifu analyzed with reason.
"Six formation gates, first and last, have not been found to be hidden......"
Hu Zhen Zhen showed doubts and fell into thought.
"Huh! The center of the six formation gates should be where the formation eye is? The formation eye is hidden extremely deep, being covered by the six formation gates arching over it, if there exists a hidden formation gate, then it can only be found in......" A flash of light appeared in True Man Hu's mind, and after discussing with Fairy Master for a few moments, he came to a preliminary conclusion.
Master Fairy's clear eyes flowed, seemingly enlightened.
"Gentlemen, please lean back a bit."
Real Hu and Real Tan exchanged a few words in a voice transmission and said to the five Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Lu Chang'an showed a strange face and joined Fairy Shi and the others, stepping back a dozen feet.
Only to see that the real Hu, who was located in the front, took out an ancient rusty copper token from his storage bag.
"Half a year ago, I obtained this item underneath a corpse at the relics, I don't know the purpose, and it is unresponsive."
Hu Zhenren's expression was solemn as he secretly pondered.
Holding the copper token in his hand, he glanced at the several Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators behind him, his face showing hesitation.
"Fellow Daoist Hu, if your conjecture is true, it would be best not to let outsiders try it, perhaps there is only one chance."
Real Tan transmitted his voice.
"If Fellow Daoist Hu doesn't dare, why don't you let Mister Tan take a chance." In between his words, he showed the courage to be the first.
"Mr. Tan doesn't know anything about formations, it's better to let Mr. Hu do it."
Mr. Hu sighed and finally made a decision.
Real Tan wore a smile on his face, but did not argue hard, this kind of attempt is also risky.
As a pseudo-dan real person, the road ahead is slim, if they come across a chance that may lead to further advancement, many are willing to give it a try.
Hu held the bronze token in his hand, placed it in his sleeve robe, and quietly injected dan power.
The token is still unresponsive.
Mr. Hu closed his eyes, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
Through the token, he sensed the hidden seventh formation gate, located in the center of the hexagonal palace building.
"Six outer formation gates, one broken, just the best breakthrough."
After a long time, Real Hu opened his eyes with a flash of brilliance.
Without waiting for Realist Tan to inquire.
He took a step forward and offered up the Forbidden Breaking Bead, striking towards the gap in the formation door that had been broken open above the golden-bronze gate.
The Forbidden Breaking Bead transformed into a twisted black and white beam of light that swept through the broken formation behind the gate, stirring up a blue and red flame of light.
Boom!
The light beam of the formation above the hexagonal palace building broke through a large hole.
At the other end of the hole, an exotic floating light was projected in the eyes of Hu Zhenzhen.
The scene was covered by the chaotic light of the formation, and the cultivators at the back could not really see it.
"Could it be a small space that was artificially opened up? As the secret vault of the ancient ruins?"
Lu Changan surveyed the large hole from afar, and although he couldn't see the light inside, he detected signs of spatial overlap.
A similar aura leaked out, somewhat similar to when the Green Destiny Mystic Realm opened, but much weaker.
"Worthy of being a senior third-ranked formation master, more stable and precise than the Qi Zhenren back then, a single blow breaks through the vitals."
Shi Manrong memorized the details and secretly sighed.
......
"Yin Yang Water...... Fine Crystal Condensation Dan......"
Hu Zhenren exclaimed in surprise, his eyes were filled with ecstasy, and his face was uncertain under the light of the shattered formation.
He was so excited that he activated his body shield, holding the bronze token in his hand, and flew towards the large hole where the formation light rippled.
The ancient copper token flashed with a red shimmering light.
The light of the formation around Hu Zhenzhen, condensed a blue and white intertwined network, in a vortex shape to cover him.
"Real Hu, be careful!"
Manservant Tan's pupils shrank as he immediately waved the golden rope of his pre-prepared magic weapon.
Swish!
The golden rope was like a golden-scaled swimming snake, instantly wrapping around Realist Hu's waist and yanking it towards the back.
A flash of light and shadow.
Hu Zhenzhen's short body was pulled back.
Fixing his eyes on it, Real Tan's heart went cold.
The golden rope of the extremely high-grade magic artifact in his hand snapped within an inch.
The Hu Zhen Zhen he pulled back was actually a charred corpse.
"Fortunately, I reacted quickly, if I was engulfed by that formation trap, ten deaths without life......"
Heart palpitating hoarse voice came.
Swish!
The charred body turned into a black charred scarecrow. The pale-faced Hu Zhen Zhen stood up from underneath the carbonized scarecrow.
"A life-sustaining wonder?"
Lu Changan's eyes showed a strange color, this kind of magical props, in the previous life of Dakun, only saw two times.
Of course, this kind of life-saving props often have a certain upper limit.
If it wasn't for the hand of Mr. Tan, Mr. Hu would not have been able to escape.
"Manservant Hu, what happened to the scene just now? Do the 'Yin Yang Water' and 'Fine Crystal Condensation Pill' you mentioned really exist?"
Realist Tan breathed tightly and couldn't help but ask.
"The hole in the formation that I just broke through leads to a small independent space at the other end. There, I saw the scenery of an ancient garden and a stone platform covered by a light shield."
"Light-covered stone platforms?"
The minds of all the cultivators present were pulled.
"On each of these stone platforms, a treasure floats with its name and purpose inscribed......"
Real Hu stated in a low voice, and what followed was shielded by the soundproof shield laid down by Real Tan.
"Makoto Hu, seeing how you lost your temper just now, I suspect that you were affected by the illusion."
Real Tan said bluntly.
"Illusion? If it was really an illusion, I would have been able to tell the difference after I 'came to my senses'. But the scene just now, completely witnessed with my own eyes, can't find a break......"
Real Hu took the pill and shook his head.
"Two real people."
Outside the soundproof enclosure, Lu Chang'an came this way.
"What is your business?"
The two real people's conversation was interrupted, and their faces were in dismay.
Lu Chang'an sensed the growing coldness of the two real people.
At this point in the attack on the ancient ruins, he and Fairy Shifu have very little value left.
"Real Hu, I'm kindly reminding you of the token you used just now to sense the hidden formation gate......"
Lu Changan lowered his voice.
Although the voice was small, the rest of the people heard it.
"A token? Not good!"
Hu Zhenren reacted, his face suddenly changed, subconsciously touched his body, and did not find.
"The token is gone?"
The two real people and a few Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn't help but cast their eyes towards the place where the Hexagonal Palace Building had broken the formation.
"Real Hu, heal your wounds first, Mister Tan will help you look for it."
Real Tan kindly said.
Saying so, he took the lead and went that way.
How could Real Hu sit still?
Enduring the pain of his injuries, he got up and turned around to chase after Realist Tan.
At that moment, he sensed a hidden fluctuation of aura, and his heart was inexplicably chilled.
A shadowless needle aura, emanating an almost magic treasure-like aura, pierced through from Real Hu's undershirt to his chest.
"Well......"
Mr. Hu's body froze and turned back with great difficulty, his face was filled with disbelief.
