The instant Lin Langtian entered the stone door, a powerful glare shot straight at him, making him narrow his eyes reflexively.
Only after a moment did he gradually adjust. He raised his head and swept his gaze around.
Before Lin Langtian lay an enormous stone cavern, filled with curtains of light.
There were several openings in the cavern ceiling, hundreds of feet overhead. Shafts of sunlight poured down through them, making the light within even more brilliant.
The cavern was vast and deep. At least, when Lin Langtian looked into the distance, he could not see its end.
"So this is the Lin Clan's treasury?"
Lin Langtian muttered to himself. He lightly grasped at the air before him, and surprise flashed through his eyes. He could sense that the Yuan Power of heaven and earth here was remarkably abundant, far beyond anything outside.
"Could these be the treasures in the clan treasury?"
Lin Langtian looked toward the light curtains around him. Within them, he could see clusters of light.
Each cluster wrapped a Spirit Treasure, though the best among them were only high-grade.
For the current Lin Langtian, perhaps only Earth-grade Spirit Treasures could catch his eye.
"The truly powerful treasure fluctuations must be deeper inside," Lin Langtian said in a low voice, narrowing his eyes.
After forming a Bloodline Link with the Nine Nether Flame Sparrow, he could feel that his perception had risen greatly. It was likely no weaker than that of a Creation Realm expert.
With that thought, Lin Langtian no longer hesitated and strode toward the depths of the stone cavern.
Within the immense cavern, dazzling treasure light streamed in from all directions, creating a spectacular sight.
An ordinary person entering this place would likely linger here for who knew how long. Any item here, if taken outside, would count as something quite valuable.
Yet Lin Langtian merely gave those treasure lights a cursory glance before losing interest. His path remained fixed toward the depths of the clan treasury, and he did not stop again.
The clan treasury covered quite a large area. Lin Langtian wandered through it for nearly half an hour before gradually reaching its depths.
The depths of the treasury presented a completely different scene from outside. Here, countless lights outlined paths of light, and at the end of each path stood a stone platform shrouded in radiance.
Various powerful Spirit Treasures, spiritual medicines, martial arts, and more floated above those platforms.
However, Lin Langtian lost interest after merely glancing at the spiritual medicines and martial arts.
Right now, he was interested only in Earth-grade Spirit Treasures. As for the Lin Clan's martial arts, even Creation Martial Arts did not interest him much for the time being.
Turning around, Lin Langtian gazed eagerly at the five clusters of light within the light curtain. These were the Lin Clan's five Earth-grade Spirit Treasures.
The first Spirit Treasure on the left was a flexible sword, blood-red throughout. Coiled there, it resembled a blood python exuding a sinister aura, while a sharp intent spread from it.
Lin Langtian shook his head at this first Spirit Treasure. It was not his preferred style.
He immediately shifted his gaze onward. The next Spirit Treasure was a yellowed turtle shell, only palm-sized and covered in strange patterns. It carried a heavy, solid feeling, like the earth itself.
"Looks like a defensive Spirit Treasure. It would be good for saving one's life, so it can be a backup choice," Lin Langtian murmured.
Thinking this, Lin Langtian continued looking further on.
The third Spirit Treasure was a black spear. It seemed to have been forged from the bones of some ancient demonic beast and was incomparably sharp. Even with Lin Langtian's Form Creation Realm strength, it made his heart tremble.
The fourth Earth-grade Spirit Treasure was a gray treasure armor. Flowing Light surged across its surface, and the faint image of an Ancient Giant Bear emerged from it. Clearly, it was also an Earth-grade Spirit Treasure whose defensive power was not inferior to that turtle shell.
As for the last one, it was an enormous hexagonal black mirror. Mysterious light flowed over its surface, and an exceptionally peculiar yet powerful fluctuation swept out from it.
At the sight of this mirror, Lin Langtian raised his brow. If he remembered correctly, the Earth-grade Spirit Treasure used by Lin Langtian in the original timeline should have been this Spirit Wheel Mirror.
Compared with the other four Spirit Treasures, the Spirit Wheel Mirror could attack and defend. It truly was a fine choice.
As he thought of this, Lin Langtian suddenly recalled something. With a sweep of his hand, he scattered the Yuan Power mist before him.
As the mist dispersed, an enormous stone platform appeared before him.
His gaze swept over the huge stone platform. Lin Langtian paused, then finally fixed his eyes on its center, where there was a palm-sized Black Object.
Lin Langtian narrowed his eyes and examined it closely. Only then did he discover that the Black Object was a tiny mountain carving, placed atop the stone platform as though it were merely an ornament.
"So it really is the Heavy Prison Peak." Taking two steps forward, Lin Langtian stared intently at the black mountain that seemed to possess no spirituality at all and muttered softly.
In the original timeline, after Lin Dong defeated Lin Langtian at the clan gathering, he gained one chance to enter the clan treasury. The treasure he took was this Heavy Prison Peak.
Though the Heavy Prison Peak appeared no different from an ordinary decoration, the truth was quite the opposite. This item was the most precious Earth-grade Spirit Treasure in the Lin Clan's treasury!
At this thought, a fiery gleam appeared in Lin Langtian's eyes. After a brief moment of contemplation, he slowly reached out and gripped the small black mountain.
However, just as Lin Langtian tried to lift it, a stunned expression flashed through his eyes the next moment. He discovered that despite his pull, the little mountain did not move in the slightest!
"Damn it, I forgot that subduing this thing requires Essence Yuan Power!"
Remembering something, Lin Langtian slapped his forehead and said in frustration.
Essence Yuan Power was the Fusion Power of Mental Power and Yuan Power, far stronger than either type of power alone. Lin Dong in the original timeline had mastered this ability and used it to subdue the Heavy Prison Peak.
The original Lin Langtian was not even a Symbol Master. His Mental Power was extremely weak, so how could he possess Essence Yuan Power?
Staring at the Heavy Prison Peak, Lin Langtian's eyes flickered. In the end, he could only sigh regretfully.
Without Essence Yuan Power, he simply could not subdue the Heavy Prison Peak with his current cultivation.
For now, he could only choose another Earth-grade Spirit Treasure.
"Forget it. Since this item is fated for Lin Dong, I'll choose something else." After comforting himself, Lin Langtian shook his head.
A moment later, Lin Langtian had composed himself and returned to the five Spirit Treasures.
Though the Heavy Prison Peak was excellent, Lin Langtian was not fated to possess it, nor did he absolutely need it. With this in mind, he shifted his gaze to the black hexagonal mirror.
Compared with the other Spirit Treasures, the Spirit Wheel Mirror did indeed possess more well-rounded properties. The original Lin Langtian had likely chosen it because he valued this point as well.
With that thought, Lin Langtian beckoned with his hand and drew the black hexagonal mirror over.
Compared with the Heavy Prison Peak's stubbornness, the Spirit Wheel Mirror was clearly much more obedient. Lin Langtian did not need to expend much effort before it landed in his hand.
Having decided to take the Spirit Wheel Mirror, Lin Langtian no longer hesitated. With a thought, he forced out a drop of blood essence and sent it into the Spirit Wheel Mirror, beginning the process of claiming it as his master.
The process went extremely smoothly. The Spirit Wheel Mirror allowed his blood essence to enter its deepest depths, where it formed a blood mark condensed from blood essence.
However, at the instant the blood mark took shape, a sudden change occurred!
A dazzling golden light suddenly burst from within Lin Langtian's body. Like a blazing sun, it was impossible to look at directly.
Within that golden light seemed to be countless ancient, mysterious, powerful runes.
Under Lin Langtian's astonished gaze, those golden runes surged toward the Spirit Wheel Mirror like a tidal wave the next moment.
Buzz! Buzz!
In an instant, the Spirit Wheel Mirror emitted a Buzzing Sound, and mysterious golden light radiated from its body.
At the same time, those obscure and mysterious runes imprinted themselves upon it, transforming the originally black hexagonal mirror into a golden, mysterious rune treasure mirror...
