Seclusion

It took roughly four hours, but Jiang Beiran finally finished exploring this mysterious ancient place.

He discovered that aside from the jade bottle that had pleasantly surprised him, there were even more heavenly materials and earthly treasures here that delighted him—quite a few of which were not even recorded in the Record of Rare Treasures.

For example, there was a piece of crystal-clear fluorite. Just touching it made Jiang Beiran feel that the life force contained within it was terrifyingly vast.
