"Let's go over and have a look."
Luo Ling put his right hand on Qin Tiexin's shoulder, and a soft spiritual force supported him, and the two of them rushed toward the entrance of the cave not far away.
Chen Xi was standing at the entrance of the cave waiting. When he saw the two people falling, his eyes first fell on the withered arm in Qin Tiexin's hand.
The dim rune carvings on the severed arm, the dry skin on the surface that clung to the bones, and the five-foot length all made him feel familiar. It seemed like he had seen something similar somewhere a long time ago.
"Senior brother?" Qin Tiexin noticed his gaze.
"It's okay." Chen Xi looked away, turned around and led the way, "Follow me."
The three of them walked into the cave. The stone chamber was not big, measuring three feet square. The ground was filled with storage rings, storage bracelets and Storage Bag. It was hard to scan thousands of them at a glance.
Some were thrown in randomly, and some were still bundled into piles.
There were several opened Storage Bag, Spirit Stone and elixirs scattered on the ground in the corner. It seemed that someone had rummaged through them.
Qin Tiexin looked at the storage Law Artifact all over the floor, thinking that there should be not only the storage Law Artifact of them Body Refining monks, but also True Person Xueying's trophies over the years.
Luo Ling stood at the entrance of the cave, glanced at it and then looked away without any special reaction.
Chen Xi's reaction was completely different from theirs. He was already squatting in the pile of Storage Bag, flipping his left and right hands at the same time, and laughing out loud.
Luo Ling glanced at him angrily, turned to Qin Tiexin and said, "Your senior brother is like this. Not only is he afraid of death, he is also obsessed with money. He can't walk when he sees good things."
Then she shouted to Chen Xi, "Don't embarrass me, have I ever lacked anything from you? You are already a Golden Core Realm person, why are you still so interested in these junior storage Law Artifact? There is nothing in it that you can use."
Chen Xi raised his head from the pile of Storage Bag, with a smile on his face, "Hehehehe, I'm used to it, isn't it because I'm afraid of being poor when I go out?"
After he finished speaking, he lowered his head and continued to search. His hand speed was so fast that he almost brought out the afterimage, but he didn't need the help of the two people.
Luo Ling shook his head, too lazy to care about him anymore.
After a while, Chen Xi stood up, holding a silver-white storage ring in his hand, and walked to Qin Tiexin.
"Junior brother, come on, come on. I have collected almost all useful things here. Take a look, junior brother, you have made a fortune."
Qin Tiexin took the ring, and Divine Sense swept it inside. The space inside the ring was huge, several times larger than the one he used before, and visually it was as spacious as three or five rooms.
The most conspicuous thing is the Lower-Grade Spirit Stone piled into a hill in the center of the space, which is roughly estimated to be worth tens of thousands of yuan. There are dozens of Middle-Grade Spirit Stone stacked neatly next to it;
Around Spirit Stone, jade bottles of elixirs are arranged in several rows, ranging from the Qi Refinement Realm to the Foundation Establishment Realm, and from the Body Refining Realm to the Qi and Blood Realm;
The Cultivation Method martial arts Jade Slip are placed together alone; the spiritual materials for weapon refining are piled in the corner, Mysterious Iron Essence, Cold Jade Marrow, Red Copper Mother, all in large quantities; An area was specially opened on one side to store higher quality treasures. He saw Blood Silkworm Gold Silk of Duan Xuan at a glance, as well as the several treasures sealed in the light pillar of the Iron Spine Sect underground palace, among them.
In addition, there is a large cauldron in the center of the space, which is as tall as a person, seven feet in diameter, with three legs and two ears. The cauldron is densely engraved with Spirit Rune. The cauldron has thick walls and a dark copper color. Spirit Rune slowly circulates on the cauldron, exuding a calm Heaviness aura.
He had seen this cauldron in the Iron Spine Sect ruins. At that time, several Qi and Blood Realm monks were carrying it together. Because it was too big and of a higher grade, it could not be put into an ordinary Storage Bag and could only be carried by manpower. Unexpectedly, it was also here.
In addition to these, there are also spirit medicine in jade boxes, and stacks of talismans arranged in categories. Everything is neatly organized and classified into clear categories.
Qin Tiexin doesn't know when Chen Xi finished all this. It didn't take long from the time he went to get Edgeless and the broken arm. Senior brother's speed was a bit too fast.
The only strange thing is that there are no weapons inside, not even a weapon embryo.
Qin Tiexin took Divine Sense out of the storage ring and handed the ring back. "No, I can't take it. Master and senior brother came all the way to save me, how can I take these?"
"Just keep it if you give it to me." Luo Ling pushed his wrist back, "Is your senior brother the kind of person who puts himself at a disadvantage? I can tell without looking at it that there must not be a piece of Upper-Grade Spirit Stone inside. He has already put away those good things."
She turned around and glared at Chen Xi: "Why don't you take it out quickly? Do you really want to devour it all to yourself?"
Chen Xi helplessly took out two storage rings from the other hand, handed one to Luo Ling, and muttered, "You have the nerve to talk to me and steal things from your apprentice."
"What did you say?!"
"Nothing, nothing." Chen Xi smiled, scratched his head, and turned to Qin Tiexin, "Junior brother, it's not that senior brother deliberately deducted money. You can't use the things here yet, they are materials and elixirs that Golden Core can only use in the future. When you Core Formation, senior brother will give you more good things."
Qin Tiexin then put the ring on the index finger of his left hand.
Luo Ling took the one from her, Divine Sense scanned it, and then nodded. "That's pretty much it. It's not much, but it's better than nothing."
Qin Tiexin could see that Chen Xi had actually divided up the master's share a long time ago and had no intention of taking it all for himself. The back-and-forth quarrel just now was just the usual way of getting along between the two.
Chen Xi handed over another black storage ring. "Junior brother, this is your own one, right? Senior brother hasn't moved the things inside. Check to see if there's anything missing."
Qin Tiexin took it and Divine Sense scanned it. Everything inside was generally complete.
The box of Return-to-True Spirit Metal practice metal blocks given by Master Wu Zhen, the Five Phases Conversion Pearl, Five Spirit Dao Stone, and Curios Pavilion tokens are all in their original positions.
It's just that the poisonous erysipelas and poisonous herbs he seized from the poison cultivator Cao Mu are missing. Those were the things he planned to give to Senior Brother Chen Xi.
"Thank you, senior brother."
"Why are you so polite?" Chen Xi suddenly stopped smiling and said to Luo Ling with a straight face, "Master, it's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's go back to Wind and Snow Pass first. First, junior brother's arm needs to be seen by a medical practitioner as soon as possible to see if it can be reconnected; and further..."
"I found something from the true spirit of True Person Xueying. Tomorrow, Devil Race will launch an attack on Wind and Snow Pass from the east at noon. True Person Xueying is the bait they use to attract high-level monks from Wind and Snow Pass."
Luo Ling frowned. "Is the news reliable?"
"What I found through the soul search should be reliable, but this person doesn't know much."
"Then we have to rush back as soon as possible." Luo Ling turned around and walked out, "Xi'er, how long will it take for the shuttle to reach full speed?"
"In an hour and a half, we can arrive before noon."
Qin Tiexin also knew that the situation was urgent, so he put his severed arm into the storage ring given by Chen Xi, found his original Storage Bag with Frost Rune engraved on it, and carefully put the withered arm inside.
After tying Storage Bag around his waist, he subconsciously pressed his chest with his left hand. The jade pendant was still there, and a slight chill came through the fabric.
Luo Ling took Qin Tiexin to the open space outside the cave and released Chen Xi's shuttle.
Chen Xi stayed alone in the cave to arrange the layout. Explosion Talisman Pasted it from the load-bearing stone pillars of the stone chamber to the top wall of the corridor, and the position of each piece was accurately calculated.
He retreated outside the cave and pinched Method Formula with his right hand. There was a dull loud noise from the depths of the cave, followed by a chain of collapse sounds. The rock layers were smashed down layer by layer, and the entire mountain wall sunk inward, creating a huge pit.
Chen Xi waved his sleeves to fan away the floating dust, squatted down in front of the collapsed mountain wall, and took out several pieces of Law Artifact from his arms, a jade pendant, a small jade sword, and a wooden plaque with Spirit Rune embedded in it...
Each piece of Law Artifact has a faint shadow sealed inside, and some are so dim that they are almost invisible.
He placed these items in several hidden gravel crevices on the periphery of the mountain wall. The location of each location was extremely tricky. Some were hidden under the roots of fallen dead trees, some were buried in shallow layers of soft soil, and some were sandwiched between cracks in broken rocks.
After putting it away, he erased his own aura on it, leaving only the weak spiritual power fluctuations of Law Artifact itself.
"Whether you can survive or not depends on your fate." He stood up and patted his knees.
Returning to the shuttle, Chen Xi sat in the driver's seat. The shuttle shook slightly and sped towards the east. The clouds on both sides were pulled into blurry gray-white light strips by the speed of the shuttle, and the cold wind at high altitude was blocked by the protective array, leaving only a faint wind howl.
Qin Tiexin was sitting at the end of the shuttle, holding the handle of Edgeless Saber across his lap with his left hand. The empty sleeve on his right shoulder was slightly fluttered by the wind pressure. He lowered his head and glanced at the black rock mountain that was getting further and further away under his feet.
Most of the mountain has collapsed, and traces of formation patterns can still be faintly seen on the exposed rock sections. What was buried in the heart of the mountain will never be seen again.
More than three hundred monks who participated in Body Refining Master Conference stayed there forever.
The shuttle flew through the clouds, and the black rocky mountains disappeared under the white mist. Qin Tiexin retracted his gaze and hugged Edgeless to his knees. Edgeless's blade trembled very slightly under his palm, as if in response to something. He pressed his left hand on the blade, and the trembling of the blade slowly calmed down.
An hour later.
Several rays of escaping light came from the southeast direction against the clouds, hovered twice over the black rock mountain, and then landed one after another. Several monks walked out of the escaping light, each of them with extremely strong aura, the weakest one was also Golden Core Middle Stage, and the strongest one already had the cultivation level of Golden Core Peak.
The leader was Elder Ge, Meridian Opening Late Stage from the Golden Body Sect, with a strong build and wearing a dark gold short-game outfit. As soon as he got off the boat, he began to glance around, his eyes so gloomy that he seemed to be digging two holes in the ground.
"Someone destroyed this place before we came." A Golden Core monk wearing a blue robe was squatting in front of the collapsed mountain wall, twisting the gravel powder with his fingers, "Explosion Talisman's breath has not dissipated, and it will not exceed two hours at most."
"Look for it first." Elder Ge said solemnly, "Qing'er's true spirit Law Artifact should be nearby."
Several people spread out and searched along the edge of the collapse area.
A moment later, Elder Ge found a palm-sized jade sword under the roots of a fallen dead tree. The body of the jade sword was covered with fine cracks, but the Spirit Rune inside was still flowing slowly, with a shadow sealed at the core.
The hand holding the jade sword trembled slightly, and his thick knuckles turned white when pinched. After a while, he slowly exhaled.
"I found it, it's Qing'er's True Spirit Jade Sword." His voice was very low, "Your juniors should be not far away."
One after another, people found the true spirit Law Artifact of their respective disciples, including jade pendants, wooden plaques, and jade beads in different shapes. Some people breathed a sigh of relief after finding it, and solemnly put it away towards Law Artifact; some looked at the shadow in Law Artifact that was so dim that it almost disappeared, and their faces were ashen.
"Why are these Law Artifact placed here?" someone asked with a frown, "It seems like they were placed outside deliberately waiting for us to pick them up."
"I don't know which senior did it."
"It's a pity that we couldn't save them."
"Could it be that someone Nascent Soul Cultivator passed by and killed someone?" A Golden Core Late Stage monk frowned.
At this moment, a golden escaping light flew up from the crowd without any warning. The escaping light was incredibly fast, tearing a straight golden track in the clouds and heading towards Wind and Snow Pass.
"It's Sect Master Duan from the Golden Sun Sect." Elder Ge raised his head and glanced at the golden light that was about to disappear into the sky, "He just didn't find his daughter's true spirit jade pendant."
Several people exchanged looks.
One of them said, "Golden Sun Sect is just a single child, and Sect Master Duan is a slave girl. I'm afraid something big will happen this time."
"Let's go too Wind and Snow Pass." Elder Ge put the jade sword into his arms and said in a cold voice, "I would like to ask their boss why they came to attend an exchange conference and were beaten to death."
"Let's go together."
"Let's go together."
Several rays of light took off again and flew in the direction of Wind and Snow Pass.
