Ye Weixiao looked on with a puzzled expression, and then saw Su Mu immediately conclude that there was something strange about the water.

However, Su Mu had already put the water away, so she had no way to continue her research.

However, since Su Mu just said that, there must be something wrong with the water.

"If I'm not mistaken, there are probably some treasures hidden all around, but we just can't see through them right now."

Su Mu reacted extremely quickly at this moment, and immediately whispered to Ye Weixiao beside him.

If the water they just drank was a treasure, but they couldn't see anything unusual about it, then it can be concluded that they also wouldn't be able to identify the other treasures.

Therefore, this makes perfect sense.

The treasure is right in front of me, I just can't recognize it.

Ye Weixiao was also taken aback upon hearing this. Was it really possible to do that?

Thinking about the water Su Mu had just taken, Ye Weixiao considered it and realized that it was indeed possible.

This village is right here; it's clearly something very abnormal.

If that's the case, then it makes perfect sense that the treasure is hidden nearby.

"Therefore, let us split up and search for treasure on our own."

Ye Weixiao composed herself and said in a low voice.

This matter must not be known to anyone nearby, so we must be very careful.

Su Mu nodded gently, "Our primary task now is to find Heaven-Stabilizing Gate after we separate."

After Su Mu finished speaking with Ye Weixiao, he turned and left.

Seeing this, Ye Weixiao turned around and went in another direction. Since she was looking for treasure, she couldn't afford to delay.

Su Mu had just left when he noticed that Sheng Fanhong and the others in the distance were not paying attention, so he immediately went into the thatched hut next to him.

Inside the thatched hut, there were even writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones placed to the side, making it look like the dwelling of a poor scholar.

The inkstone and writing brush both looked extremely old; an ordinary person would probably not pay much attention to them.

However, Su Mu noticed the difference at this moment.

"This place has existed for who knows how long. It couldn't possibly contain ordinary things. It must have just become a bit old by now, right?"

Su Mu looked at the inkstone, paper, and brush, and immediately reached out and put all of these things into his Storage Ring.

After collecting these items, Su Mu turned to look at the rest of the place.

This table.

Su Mu looked down at the table, intending to take it away as well, but found that it wouldn't budge and wouldn't let Su Mu touch it at all.

Su Mu's eye twitched at the sight. He had also used a lot of strength, but he still couldn't lift the thing.

It seems this is something he can't take away.

Although she was somewhat disappointed, Su Mu didn't care too much.

The thatched hut had no door, which made Su Mu give up the idea of getting one.

I don't even know where Heaven-Stabilizing Gate is.

Thinking of Heaven-Stabilizing Gate, which he had been thinking about just now, Su Mu felt somewhat helpless.

He had been thinking about this thing for a long time, but he couldn't find it no matter what he tried.

In this village, I didn't see any houses with doors.

After inspecting the house and making sure nothing was left behind, Su Mu turned and left, moving to another room.

The room looked as unremarkable as ever, with just a broken pot.

Su Mu looked at it and confirmed that even the bottom was broken.

This thing shouldn't have any value anymore.

But Su Mu thought about it for a moment and then put the pot away.

Whether it's a treasure or not, since we've seen it, we should keep it and study it later when we get out.

If it's not a treasure, then we can just throw it away later.

Su Mu had just put the broken pot away and was about to check the rest of the place when he suddenly noticed a piece of wood that hadn't been completely burned under the pot.

Upon seeing this item, Su Mu's heart stirred.

This thing looks a bit unusual.

Seeing this, Su Mu immediately reached out and put the still-burnt wood into his Storage Ring.

There was also a Kitchen God statue nearby, with three incense sticks in front of him that had not yet finished burning. Su Mu put the incense away when he saw this.

Then I noticed the chairs and other items nearby and thought I'd take them with me.

But the next moment, the chair seemed to be fixed in place. Su Mu's mind stirred, but the table and chair remained perfectly in place.

"Huh?"

Su Mu was stunned. He had fiddled with the table and chairs when he came in. These things were clearly movable, so there was no reason why they couldn't be moved.

Su Mu remembered very clearly everything that had just been moved.

Why can't we accept it now?

Thinking of this, Su Mu reached out to take it.

However, the tables and chairs seemed to be fixed in place, and Su Mu could no longer lift them.

Strange

Su Mu looked on with a puzzled expression.

After thinking for a moment, Su Mu put the three incense sticks she had just taken back and then went to get more tables and chairs.

This time, the tables and chairs were moved.

"Hiss"

Upon seeing this scene, Su Mu's pupils constricted slightly. Indeed, this place was extremely eerie.

Even now, he still hasn't sensed the slightest power of the formation, nor the slightest Spiritual Power.

Yet, even under these circumstances, he was unknowingly restricted.

You can only take a certain number of treasures from the thatched hut; once you exceed that limit, you cannot take any more.

Su Mu was absolutely certain at this moment.

The previous one was the same, but Su Mu didn't notice and thought that thing was inherently immobile.

Upon closer inspection, it became clear that this wasn't the case at all; it was simply because he had already taken the required amount of items, so he couldn't touch anything else.

So, what he took was very likely all treasure?

Of course, it's also possible that it isn't.

After all, this could be a smokescreen.

However, the only thing that can be confirmed is that there is likely treasure hidden here.

Thinking of this, Su Mu perked up immediately. After looking around and confirming that the other items did not seem to have any extraordinary properties as what he had taken, Su Mu put away the three incense sticks.

A moment later, Su Mu went out.

Then they continued to the next thatched hut.

Soon, Su Mu had searched through one thatched hut after another.

Sheng Fanhong and the others in the distance were also observing from every angle, but they hadn't yet noticed anything amiss.

They were still looking around, thinking there was some kind of formation here, but they didn't find it.

Once the formation is found, entry will be possible.

"What's going on with those two guys? They're still going from room to room observing everything."

A moment later, Sheng Fanhong and the others gathered together, but none of them had found anything. They wondered if the other party had already made a discovery but was unwilling to tell them.

Under such circumstances, Su Mu and Ye Weixiao stood out conspicuously in the distance.

They also noticed Su Mu and the other person.

The two of them had started searching around earlier, as if they were looking for treasure.

Even after searching each thatched hut so carefully, it seemed there was still nothing to be found.

After all, they had already seen all those thatched huts.

Moreover, from the moment they began their search, they never sensed the slightest fluctuation of Spiritual Power.

Based on this, it seems the other party didn't actually find any treasure.

Just as they suspected, the treasure must have been hidden, and they needed to find the formation.

Only after finding the formation can you see the treasure.

"They're probably still unwilling to give up. But that makes sense. Even my Formless Formation Flag couldn't break this array, and now that it's been broken, this is what we see. Anyone would be disappointed."

Fan Yongqi remained calm upon seeing this.

The consensus is that the more powerful the Law Treasure, the higher the value of the treasures inside.

Surely you can't use an array worth billions or even tens of billions of Spirit Stone to protect something worth only tens of thousands of Spirit Stone?

Sheng Fanhong had no idea what Fan Yongqi was thinking. If he had known, he probably would have secretly applauded him.

In his view, no matter how precious the treasures inside were, they could never compare to the formation he had just witnessed.

The value of that formation was probably worth hundreds of billions of Spirit Stone.

Unfortunately, no one else knew about this; he should be the only one who knew.

Sheng Fanhong secretly rejoiced, but when he thought of Su Mu and the other two, his heart sank.

Perhaps, these two people might also know.

"It's strange, isn't it? We were unwilling to give up, but after searching some thatched huts and confirming that there was nothing unusual, we turned our attention to the outside. Why are these two still so insistent on checking inside the thatched huts? Could there be something strange inside?"

The cultivator surnamed Wu, however, was overthinking things.

At this moment, he was still watching the two people in the distance, seeing them enter the thatched hut and then come out again.

It seemed to follow a fairly regular time pattern, but something felt increasingly off.

"Do you think it's possible that these two found something inside and are now searching frantically?"

The man surnamed Wu felt increasingly strange.

The others were taken aback for a moment upon hearing this, and then looked carefully at Su Mu and the other person.

Although Su Mu and the other person both appeared calm and composed when they came out, there seemed to be nothing wrong with them.

However, upon closer inspection, the crowd noticed that both of them seemed quite eager to enter the thatched hut.

This is extremely strange.

If something precious hadn't been found inside, why would someone have such an expression?

Everyone else felt that something was extremely wrong at that moment.

"Let's go, let's follow them and take a look."

Sheng Fanhong's face was gloomy at this moment. He thought about what would happen if the two of them really found something, or some treasure, while he had nothing.

This thought fueled his extreme displeasure.

It had been agreed beforehand that he would be the one to choose the treasures first after entering.

If the other party discovers traces of the treasure, you should notify them and let them choose the treasure first.

Instead of the current situation, where the other party is secretly searching for treasure behind my back, even though I brought these people in here myself.

Thinking of this, Sheng Fanhong followed with a gloomy face.

"Have you noticed? We can only pick a few things from here; we can't take any more.

Su Mu happened to run into Ye Weixiao, and upon seeing this, Su Mu quickly told her what she had discovered.

Upon hearing this, Ye Weixiao immediately nodded, her face filled with excitement. "I've discovered it. It seems that the things inside are indeed extraordinary; otherwise, there would be no way they would have created such restrictions."

To be honest, even now, as a Spirit Transformation Cultivator, she still hasn't figured out how she's been restricted.

There was absolutely no subtle fluctuation in the surroundings, yet they were still confined.

The reason for such restrictions is likely because the treasures inside are extremely extraordinary.

Therefore, what Su Mu said earlier, that the treasures inside were all hidden and could not be seen with the naked eye, is very likely true.

Seeing that Ye Weixiao had also discovered this, Su Mu wasn't surprised.

The other party was, after all, Spirit Transformation Cultivator, so it was perfectly normal for them to have noticed this; it would have been abnormal if they hadn't.

I just saw that they asked, but it was just to be on the safe side.

Seeing that the other person already knew the situation, Su Mu nodded to them and continued walking to the next room.

Ye Weixiao didn't waste any time; before Sheng Fanhong and the others noticed, they needed to hurry.

If they had been any slower, they would definitely have noticed something was wrong.

After all, there's only so much stuff in the thatched hut. Once the other party goes inside, they'll find that something is suddenly missing.

If you think about it later, you'll realize that only she and Su Mu were walking towards the thatched hut, and you'll immediately be able to deduce that the items were taken by the two of them.

We'll think about it carefully then. They wouldn't take something useless for no reason, which immediately increases the likelihood that what's inside is a treasure.

Ye Weixiao was thinking this, but in reality Sheng Fanhong and the others in the distance had already noticed that something was wrong.

"Don't go over there yet. Let's go in and take a look after they come out."

Sheng Fanhong saw the group approaching, he suddenly reached out and whispered something.

Going there now would easily alert the enemy; it's better to wait and see.

Go inside as soon as they come out; perhaps you can discover the trick before they realize what's going on.

The others all nodded in agreement, and none of them had any objections.

After putting away the last item that Su Mu considered a treasure, he turned and left the thatched hut.

Just as Su Mu reached the door, he suddenly saw Sheng Fanhong and the others walking towards him.

The group ignored Su Mu and went directly into the thatched hut to check the situation.

Seeing this, Su Mu knew that these people had noticed something was wrong with him. Knowing that time was running out, he ignored them and turned to leave.

Even at this point, Su Mu remained calm, his pace still unhurried.

He had already searched through most of the thatched huts, and there weren't many left.

If they find out, so be it. At most, they'll just have to pack some things and leave.

However, it's estimated that there won't be much left.

After all, besides Su Mu, Ye Weixiao was also collecting the remaining treasures.
