Even so, it took him more than ten minutes to loot a single Celestial Dragon's mansion.
And that was with him leaving behind anything troublesome to carry or of little value.
That included anything that might make noise, such as gems embedded in the walls.
Even the slightest sound could attract someone's attention.
