He had cleaned out who knew how many rooms.
Gazing at his Purple Mansion, piled high with "junk," Zhang Yuan was not particularly satisfied.
The Yin Net Tranquil-Illumination Palace certainly held plenty of fine things. Most were treasures never even seen in the Crimson Firmament Roselight Realm, and the contents of any single room would have been enough for cultivators from that realm to build their fortunes. Yet however valuable these things were, they were not what Zhang Yuan truly sought.
Aside from finding a few stones needed for the Form and Spirit Cultivation Method, Zhang Yuan had found no other upper-tier heavenly materials and earthly treasures. He had no idea where they were kept.
Walking beside Xie Jingxin, Zhang Yuan held a gourd-shaped stone, casually tossed it into his mouth, and chewed as he refined it.
This gourd-shaped stone was an upper-tier heavenly material and earthly treasure called nine-heavens divine gourd stone. According to the Form and Spirit Cultivation Method, cultivators had to ascend to the Nine Heavens, and only in the deepest reaches of the vault of heaven might they find it. It was exceedingly rare.

Xie Jingxin nodded.
Suspicion flickered in
