Yin Corpse Sect's Sect Warehouse

After learning that the Yin Corpse Sect was empty, Xiao Chen rescheduled to have tea with Hidden Ice True Monarch.

Then he quickly took his leave and headed straight for the mountain gate.

Even the matter of cracking the Storage Ring was postponed even further.

Although he could defeat the other True Lord of the Yin Corpse Sect one by one even after they returned, he still wanted to cherish this opportunity.

However, before Xiao Chen could even get close to the Yin Corpse Sect...

He sensed many intense fluctuations of Spiritual Power from afar using his Divine Sense.

It seems that many cultivators are already engaged in a magical duel ahead.

"Something's not right. Could a thief be stealing from my warehouse?"

Xiao Chen immediately became alert and increased his escape speed by three points.

At the same time, he extended his Divine Sense to its maximum distance, eager to see what was happening ahead.

He soon saw a massive Mountain Protecting Grand Array outside the Yin Corpse Sect, its spiritual light shimmering, clearly fully activated.

That's quite normal. Once the disciples guarding the mountain gate discover that their own Grand Elder is in trouble, they will immediately raise an alarm.

Interestingly, apart from a number of the Yin Corpse Sect Elder who were busy inspecting the formation and reassuring their disciples,

Currently, there are still more than ten Golden Core cultivators huddled together, surrounded by dozens of people at the edge of the formation.

"Qi Zhongming, the Nether Silkworm True Monarch has treated you very well in the past!"

An elderly man in a bright red robe angrily questioned, "Ever since you entered the mountain gate, you have always received the best treatment among all the Guest Elder."

"But now you not only show no gratitude, but you also don't think about how to repay the True Lord or the sect."

"You actually tried to run away at a time like this, and even encouraged others to follow you into battle."

"Do you think you've lived up to the True Lord's past kindness and guidance?"

Do you have even the slightest conscience?

Hearing his stern shout, many of the surrounded cultivators lowered their heads slightly.

However, Qi Zhongming, whom he had singled out, scoffed, "Ha, you have the nerve to talk to me about conscience?"

"This is absolutely hilarious!"

"Who in this sect, from top to bottom, dares to say they have a conscience?"

"Then let me ask you!"

"When you used a premature infant as a medicinal ingredient, didn't you ever ask yourself if you had any conscience?"

"You still have the nerve to talk back to me? You're utterly shameless!"

"I'm already ten times, a hundred times, stronger than all of you beasts in human skin by not learning to cultivate Devil Cultivation Method with you!"

After he said that, three people were still too embarrassed to look up.

However, the other Guest Elder all voiced their agreement.

They joined midway through and didn't feel much belonging to the Yin Corpse Sect.

Now that they have suddenly learned of the deaths of two True Lord, how could they not guess that something terrible must have happened outside?

It might soon spread to the entire Lightless Sea.

Fortunately, the other True Lord were not currently inside the mountain gate, and they still had the Formation Flag they used for patrolling the mountain.

If we don't run now, when will we?

Unexpectedly, they were caught red-handed by the Enforcement Elder, who led his men to block them at the edge of the formation, preventing them from leaving.

"Phew, what a relief!"

Upon hearing this from afar, Xiao Chen immediately felt relieved.

It slightly adjusted its direction and headed straight for the position where the two sides were facing off.

Now, he wants to enter from the outside, and the other party wants to come out from the inside, but they are both blocked by the Yin Corpse Sect Mountain Protecting Grand Array in the middle.

Since that's the case, Xiao Chen wouldn't mind helping them out.

Pick the softest persimmon to squeeze, and break a great formation by its weakest point.

Even without Nascent Soul True Lord guarding the front, he could easily dismantle the Array Foundation Array Foundation by one from the front.

But since there's a more time-saving and labor-saving way, why wouldn't he take it?

"Haha, it's the Grand Elder who's returned ahead of schedule!"

Sensing a powerful surge of Spiritual Power rapidly approaching from afar, the Enforcement Elder first turned pale, then immediately beamed with joy. "You traitors, why don't you surrender immediately?"

"Give up resistance now, and wait for the True Lord to return so that he can be treated leniently."

"Otherwise, you'll be in for a tough time following the Sect Rules."

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhongming and the others also turned pale.

But they weren't stupid. There was no turning back now. Even if they knelt down and surrendered, it would be too late. They wouldn't be able to escape the Sect Rules then either.

Therefore, none of them spoke, but looked into the distance with a glimmer of hope in their eyes.

If it is True Lord of the Yin Corpse Sect who returns, then there is no point in discussing anything further.

But if not, then it becomes the perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters!

They were lucky, because the person who came was Xiao Chen.

"Heaven above, why do you not protect my Sacred Sect!"

Before long, seeing the Mountain Protecting Grand Array already crumbling, the Enforcement Elder knew the situation was hopeless and cried out in despair, "I'll fight you to the death!"

With that, he discarded the Formation Flag, grabbed his sword with both hands, and charged forward.

Then it was swept by the explosive wave of fire and instantly burned to a crisp.

"Boom!"

Xiao Chen dismantled the last Core Array Foundation, completely destroying the Mountain Protecting Grand Array, before turning around and looking back. "Was that someone shouting just now?"

He quickly looked around, but at this moment no one dared to show the slightest hostility towards a True Lord.

Whether they were Guest Elder, Elder, or stewards, they were all busy scattering and fleeing.

"Hmph, as expected of the Demonic Sect!"

Xiao Chen sneered, "Such a large sect, yet it can't find more than a few loyal disciples."

There have been instances where righteous sects have had their gates breached by the demonic sects, especially some smaller forces.

However, even after the great formation collapses, many people still bravely step forward and sacrifice themselves.

Unlike the Yin Corpse Sect, whose members were all afraid of not running fast enough and showed no intention of living or dying with the sect.

It can only be said that the environment in which one grows up shapes the kind of person one becomes.

Xiao Chen traveled smoothly all the way to the outside of the Sect Warehouse.

There were already a dozen or so corpses lying haphazardly here. Judging from their clothing, they were all members of the Yin Corpse Sect, including both inner disciple and True Disciple.

There are still many remnants of Law Technique on the outermost wall.

And a large number of Portable Array Plate scattered on the ground.

Judging from this, it's clear that someone arrived here first, trying to rush into the warehouse and steal the treasures.

However, although they successfully took down the warehouse guards through a surprise attack.

However, because Xiao Chen arrived too quickly, there wasn't enough time to use the Portable Array Plate to break the warehouse's restrictions.

They didn't even bother to pack up the Portable Array Plate they had brought, and hurriedly fled again.

"Luckily I arrived quickly, and they didn't succeed."

Xiao Chen inspected the warehouse and found that although there was some damage to its surface, most of the restrictions were still intact.

So they stopped chasing after the person and continued dismantling the remaining restrictions.

Before long, he successfully opened the Inner Sect of the warehouse.

The Yin Corpse Sect's warehouse layout is not the common two-story structure, but rather a large rectangle, with the interior divided into front and back sections.

In terms of specific arrangement, it follows the rule of material quality from low to high, from small to large, and from cheap to expensive.

Therefore, when Xiao Chen first entered, he was surrounded by things that might be useful Qi Refining Realm.

However, there isn't much to learn at this stage, and gradually the process transitions to the Foundation Establishment Realm.

It stretched for about a hundred feet, with various shelves and boxes containing different Second-Order Spiritual Object.

"Why is there another layer of protection here? Who is it protecting against?"

Halfway through his journey, Xiao Chen discovered that inside the warehouse, there was actually a Array within Array.

A semi-transparent barrier of spiritual light flickered, protecting the Third-Order Spiritual Object stored behind it.

Honestly, this is quite strange; it's completely unnecessary.

If an outsider were to breach the outer defenses of the warehouse, would they be blocked by the inner layer?

Xiao Chen spent a little over fifteen minutes to dismantle the restriction.

"Whew!"

The instant the Spiritual Power Barrier disappeared, a small breeze immediately blew through the warehouse from back to front.

It turns out that this Array within Array is not only used for differentiation, but also has the effect of gathering Spiritual Qi.

At this moment, the power suddenly failed, and an even denser concentration of Spiritual Qi surged out from behind.

"I see, that's a good design."

Xiao Chen suddenly realized. "Increasing the Spiritual Qi Concentration allows for better nurturing of the high-level spiritual creatures within."

But he still underestimated the problem.

Because after the Spiritual Qi passed by, a bloody smell followed immediately.

Undoubtedly, there are also things like Essence Blood stored within the Array within Array, which require an array to isolate the odor and also to shield them from external detection.

Xiao Chen extended his Divine Sense and immediately saw numerous Devil Artifact, blood-red Demonic Path Material, and piles of White Bone.

The Yin Corpse Sect needs to make repairs and modifications to create Corpse Puppet.

Therefore, the warehouse contains many skins that have been peeled off and bones that have been dismantled... They have all undergone preliminary processing and are stored here as spare parts.

"What... bad luck!"

Xiao Chen frowned, and without hesitation, directly activated his Spirit Fire to burn everything to ashes.

Of course, he also intentionally controlled the fire, avoiding the normal Tier 3 Spirit Grass Third-Order Spirit Pill.

Because the Yin Corpse Sect grouped similar items together for easy management, distinguishing them was not difficult.

He walked around the entire area, clearing away all the obstructing trash, before recounting the remaining spiritual items one by one.

It is worth mentioning that Third-Order Spirit Material and fourth-tier spiritual materials are also divided into two areas, front and back.

The vast majority of Demonic Path Material are located in the area in front of us.

Later on, there were only a few broken Devil Artifact and some bones that were old and badly damaged.

Even in the Lightless Sea, the Yin Corpse Sect is already the largest power.

However, since it is nominally righteous, it does not possess many high-level Demonic Path Material.

On the contrary, there are over a hundred normal Fourth-Order Spiritual Item, especially Water-element Spirit Item, accumulated over the years.

Xiao Chen only glanced at the first half of the Third-Order Spirit Material before storing them directly into two large Storage Ring.

He no longer needs any of these things.

However, they are all worth some money, and we can give them to Zhang Cunfu to process and sell them for Spirit Stone to accelerate the condensation of true essence.

Moreover, the variety of these spiritual materials is quite rich.

It almost completely met the requirements of the Rebellious Immortal Alliance's order, with only a few common spiritual items falling short in quantity.

In this way, Xiao Chen only needs to find any market to collect the necessary items.

This saves time compared to shopping in different markets and also bypasses middlemen, thus saving on profits.

Of course, when it comes to profits, there are quite a few Spirit Stone scattered around the warehouse.

According to Xiao Chen's statistics, the total number of Low-grade Spirit Stone scattered around was more than 6.44 million.

There are a total of 426,600 Mid-Grade Spirit Stone stored within the Array within Array.

The difference is nearly seven times.

It seems that both the Compassion Sea and the Storm Sea prefer to store Mid-Grade Spirit Stone rather than valuing Low-grade Spirit Stone.

"How come such a large sect doesn't have any High-grade Spirit Stone?"

After seeing High-grade Spirit Stone before, Xiao Chen wondered if he could obtain some from the Yin Corpse Sect.

However, it seems that the barrier to entry for this is quite high.

There are no relevant reserves in the warehouse, and it's unknown whether any can be found in the Storage Ring.

Or perhaps it's true that one cannot find High-grade Spirit Stone below the Venerable level?

"Hiss~, it shouldn't be that bad."

Xiao Chen thought about it and realized that the threshold shouldn't be that high.

In places like the Three Mountains Grotto-Heaven or the Holy City, Nascent Soul True Lord should have the qualifications and means to obtain High-grade Spirit Stone.

It's possible that people don't usually need this kind of thing, so they don't specifically collect or stockpile it.

After counting the Spirit Stone, the next thing to do was count the spirit ore, which was the most numerous.

However, after taking a look, Xiao Chen found that most of the spirit ores, spirit medicine, and even Fourth-Order Spirit Pill stored in the Yin Corpse Sect Sect's warehouse were relatively common items.

This refers to what is known as a low-grade fourth-tier spiritual item.

Among the more valuable items are a bottle of Purple Light Divine Water, a jar of Reflecting Plum Spirit Fungus Dried, Three Spirit Accumulating Treasure Boxes, and three Custom Spirit Tool left by predecessors.

Purple Light Divine Water is also produced in small quantities in the Compassion Sea.

Its main function is to accelerate the speed at which cultivators Condense True Essence; secondly, it can also be used as an auxiliary material for some elixirs.

For Xiao Chen, who already possessed the <Spirit Devouring Yuan Great Method>, it could only be considered a rather lackluster choice in terms of cost-effectiveness.

However, for the other True Lord, this is a crucial Cultivation Spiritual Object.

Otherwise, if one were to rely solely on one's own arduous seclusion to Condense True Essence, it would take an eternity to cultivate.

It was thanks to these things that the other Nascent Soul True Lords had time to manage their sects and explore various Secret Realm or ruins.

Of course, this also means that the Purple Light Divine Water and similar spiritual items are in high demand.

After all, this is a consumable item, and the demand remains consistently high year-round.

The fact that Xiao Chen was able to find a bottle here suggests that it was specially preserved by the Yin Corpse Sect for refining some kind of elixir.

However, Reflecting Plum Spirit Fungus Dried is different.

These items were passed down from earlier times, and their numbers are decreasing over time.

This means that it is becoming increasingly rare and precious, and can almost be considered a Fourth-Order High-Grade Spirit Item.

Its effect is simple and direct: it can greatly improve the efficiency of Law Technique cultivation and enhance the affinity between cultivators and the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi during cultivation.

For cultivators below the Spirit Transformation, the latter effect is even more significant than the former.

In ancient times, there were instances where cultivators consumed Reflecting Plum Spirit Fungus Dried not for the purpose of cultivating Law Technique, but simply to assist them in comprehending the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

Of course, nowadays, very few cultivators can still do such extravagant things.

"With this jar of Reflecting Plum Spirit Fungus Dried, I might consider breaking through to the Great Accomplishment Realm of the Azure Wave Piercing Bone Needle technique in one go."

Xiao Chen didn't care about enlightenment; he valued its main effects more.

Don't be fooled by the fact that he has already reached a state of complete mastery, seemingly on par with the ultimate achievement.

In fact, whether or not one can master a Law Technique is almost a completely different matter.

Now that we have the opportunity to strive for mastery, we certainly shouldn't miss it.

After carefully putting away the Reflecting Plum Spirit Fungus Dried, Xiao Chen stepped past the Spirit Accumulating Treasure Box and first examined the three Custom Spirit Tool one by one.

First, there is a jade bracelet, whose appearance is exactly the same as the famous Ancient Magic Treasure, the White Jade Vajra Bracelet.

However, this jade bracelet is naturally a replica, not a genuine Law Treasure.

The reason they try to maintain a consistent appearance is probably just for aesthetic reasons.

Then there was a fist-sized Bright Pearl, radiating a dazzling golden glow.

By simply injecting a tiny amount of true essence into it, it can emit an even more dazzling, even blinding, radiance.

"Judging from this design, it should be Golden Light Dragon Beating Pearl, right?"

Xiao Chen recalled the Ancient Books he had read and roughly guessed their origin.

However, in any case, this should be an offensive magical Spirit Artifact that leans towards harassment and containment.

Finally, there was a Flying Sword, which was clearly a copy of the Green Leaf Floating Light Sword that was equally famous among Sword Cultivator.

Although the Green Leaf Floating Light Sword is not as well-known as the White Jade Vajra Bracelet.

However, for many cultivators skilled in fast swordsmanship, it was an absolute legend.

Therefore, when many Sword Cultivator are forging their own Custom Spirit Tool, they will consciously ask the weapon refiner to forge them in a style as similar as possible to the Green Leaf Floating Light Sword.

It seems that doing this would make the sword faster and sharper.

This kind of thing belongs to the category of purely personal opinions.

If you believe, it exists; if you don't believe, it doesn't.

Xiao Chen didn't quite believe that appearance alone was enough, but he could tell that this was a good sword.

The criteria for judgment are also very simple, as they contain a considerable amount of Spiritual Power.

In the Cultivation World, the fact that an item contains little Spiritual Power does not necessarily mean that the item is of poor quality.

However, if something contains a lot of Spiritual Power, it can't be too bad.

"It's a pity I already have Custom Spear, otherwise I could have used it."

Xiao Chen's initial assessment was that this Flying Sword was better than the previous two Spirit Artifact.

But ironically, while he could keep those two items for now, he probably wouldn't need this Flying Sword.

That's probably why life is full of disappointments.

But these are minor issues; as long as there are good items inside the Spirit Accumulating Treasure Box, that's all that matters.

"But these three boxes all seem a bit big, don't they?"

Xiao Chen had previously noticed that these three Spirit Accumulating Treasure Box stored in the warehouse were taller and larger than usual.

Even just looking at their size, they're no longer considered boxes; they're more like three small trunks.

It was clearly custom-made, but its materials and design still followed the ordinary Spirit Accumulating Treasure Box.

This is great news! There's a big treasure inside the big box!

Xiao Chen carefully weighed the three boxes. "Let's try a different approach this time, starting with the lighter one."

However, he paused just as he placed his hand on it. "Never mind, let's follow the old rule and start with the heavier ones."

Normally, the most valuable items are not the heaviest ones.

So I'll open a regular Spirit Accumulating Treasure Box first, as a way to build up my luck for later.

Xiao Chen turned around and lifted the heaviest one first, and there was a box Dao Comprehension Crystal, a total of twenty-six pieces.

It has all four of the Five Elements Attributes except for the lack of Earth Element Dao Comprehension Crystal.

The Water Element Dao Comprehension Crystal were the most numerous, totaling six pieces.

There are the same number of Wood Element Dao Comprehension Crystal and Fire Element Dao Comprehension Crystal, four of each.

The Gold Element Dao Comprehension Crystal are the rarest, with only three pieces.

In addition, there is a rather rare Ice Element Dao Comprehension Crystal, three Lightning Element Dao Comprehension Crystal, and three Wind Element Dao Comprehension Crystal.

Finally, there are two even rarer Sound Element Dao Comprehension Crystal.

Is there a Secret Realm in the Lightless Sea that consistently produces Sound Element Dao Comprehension Crystal?

Xiao Chen was now a little curious. "Otherwise, why would there be so many Yin Corpse Sect?"

It's important to know that Dao Comprehension Crystal are also consumables!

Moreover, this item is rare to obtain and very difficult to collect.

At the same time, it can play a great role, and most people, even if they obtain the Dao Comprehension Crystal, will often choose to use it themselves rather than trade it, unless the attributes happen to be unsuitable.

For example, even a large sect like the Yin Corpse Sect only managed to accumulate a few pieces.

"Or perhaps, this was something they deliberately searched for to bribe the Heavenly Sound Sect?"

Xiao Chen thought of the Marriage Alliance alliance mentioned by Hidden Ice True Monarch: "Otherwise, besides that side, no one else would need such a niche item."

But none of that matters anymore.

This box of twenty-six Dao -Dao Comprehension Crystal now all belong to him.

With these four Wood Element Dao Comprehension Crystal as a supplement, plus the two that Xiao Chen originally had left, that makes a total of six.

The Minor Bottleneck I'm using to break through to the Nascent Soul Late Stage should be almost over.

Of course, for the sake of prudence and in preparation for overcoming Major Bottleneck in the future, it is always better to stockpile as much as possible.

No one would ever have too much of something this good.

Next, Xiao Chen opened the lightest Spirit Accumulating Treasure Box in order.

In the spacious, even somewhat empty box, lay a White Feather, about the length of his little finger.

Besides that, there was only the Bright Yellow Silk lining the bottom, and nothing else.

"Hiss~, I knew this treasure box felt a bit too light."

Xiao Chen frowned slightly. "So what's the situation here?"

"Could it be that there was originally a bird inside, but it got away?"

The main problem was that he not only didn't see any spiritual light from the feather, but he also didn't sense any Spiritual Power within it.

It seemed to be just an ordinary feather.

However, since there was nothing else, Xiao Chen had no choice but to reach out and pick it up to examine it.

The moment he got his hands on it, two feelings immediately arose in his mind.

My first impression was, wow, it's so light! I could barely feel its weight in my hand.

My second impression was that this thing seemed rather hard; it didn't bend at all.
