Treasure Hunting

Before entering the Tomb of the Sea God, Xing Qi actually taught Yi Xuan a lot of relevant knowledge.

But it was all just hearsay.

To put it bluntly, there are hundreds of millions of the Sea Clan in the Eternal Sea, and among them are quite a few geniuses.

Xing Qi, however, did not belong to this group, and therefore he had never entered the Tomb of the Sea God.

Fortunately, the Tomb of the Sea God is a sacred place for the entire Sea Clan, so many stories about the interior of the Tomb of the Sea God have been passed down.

Xing Qi merely relayed these leaked messages to Yi Xuan.

As for whether it's true or false, naturally there are both true and false.

Yi Xuan didn't take it too seriously when he heard it, just like Xing Qi didn't mention a word about the spatial situation in the Tomb of the Sea God when he was outside.

Fu Qianqiu, who was traveling with Yi Xuan, had much more accurate information than Xing Qi.

Even through ordinary conversation, Yi Xuan obtained a lot of useful information from the other party.

For example, Yi Xuan originally thought the entire floating island was the Tomb of the Sea God, but Fu Qianqiu told Yi Xuan that only the tall tower in the center was the real Tomb of the Sea God.

However, this small island is not without its merits; it contains many treasures left behind by the geniuses who once ventured there.

Yi Xuan also understood that the treasures Fu Qianqiu mentioned were nothing more than the legacies of those who couldn't leave!

Although they cannot compare to the treasures in the Tomb of the Sea God, these treasures, which originally belonged to the geniuses, are certainly extraordinary.

So Yi Xuan and Fu Qianqiu headed towards the center while searching for such fortuitous opportunity.

Fu Qianqiu truly lives up to his reputation as a disciple of the Thousand Talisman Sect of the Central Continent; the methods he uses are quite novel.

Take flying as an example. It is completely different from other cultivators that Yi Xuan has seen. It neither uses flying Law Treasure nor the flying techniques commonly used by cultivators.

Instead, he took out a talisman and it spontaneously combusted in the wind (don't ask me how he did it in the water!), after which a golden light enveloped his entire body and he rose into the air.

In terms of speed, it is in no way slower than Yi Xuan's Black Tortoise!

It should be noted that although Yi Xuan did not make the Black Tortoise go at full speed at this time, the speed of the Black Tortoise had already exceeded that of an ordinary Spirit Transformation expert.

The fact that the opponent could achieve such speed with just one talisman shows that the Thousand Talisman Sect's methods are indeed extraordinary.

This clearly demonstrates Fu Qianqiu's high status within the Thousand Talisman Sect!

The two of them, accompanied by a golden light and a mecha, flew together for two days.

Because the Black Tortoise was controlled by its own computer, and with the assistance of No. 01, Yi Xuan was completely relaxed inside.

Under Yi Xuan's observation, Fu Qianqiu seemed quite comfortable enveloped in the golden light.

However, every now and then, the other party would take out a talisman and let it spontaneously combust in the wind, the purpose of which was unknown.

Just now, the talisman that Fu Qianqiu took out spontaneously combusted again in the wind.

This time, after the talisman burned, a crane made of green smoke actually appeared.

After circling Fu Qianqiu once in mid-air, the crane sped off in one direction.

Seeing this, Fu Qianqiu's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and he quickly followed, calling out to Yi Xuan at the same time, "Fellow Daoist Shi, come with me!"

Although he didn't know what the other party was going to do, Yi Xuan still followed them.

Before long, the two arrived at a meadow.

The crane formed from the wisps of smoke stood gracefully on the grass, like a dancer.

With Fu Qianqiu's arrival, in Yi Xuan's eyes, the crane actually showed a human-like expression. It looked at its feet, exchanged a few glances with Fu Qianqiu, and then turned into green smoke and dissipated into the air again.

Fu Qianqiu was overjoyed upon seeing this.

He actually pulled out a shovel and a pickaxe from his storage equipment, rolled up his sleeves, and started attacking the spot where the crane had just stopped.

Yi Xuan, who was on the Black Tortoise, was dumbfounded!

"Um, Fellow Daoist Fu, excuse me!"

As Yi Xuan spoke, Fu Qianqiu stopped what he was doing and looked at Yi Xuan with a puzzled expression, asking, "What is it, Fellow Daoist Shi?"

"What's wrong with you...?"

"Oh, the talisman I released earlier was called Treasure-Seeking Talisman. It told me there was treasure here, so it's obvious I was searching for treasure!"

"Well, we are cultivators after all, isn't it a bit too much to use mortal tools..."

It's not surprising that Yi Xuan was a bit taken aback. After all, he had been around cultivators for a long time, so when he suddenly saw a down-to-earth cultivator like Fu Qianqiu, Yi Xuan was still a little slow to react.

Looking at the shovel and pickaxe in his hands, Fu Qianqiu understood Yi Xuan's meaning, so he smiled and explained, "Fellow Daoist Shi, please don't misunderstand. Treasure hunting sometimes depends on sincerity. If you use your True Essence, you're unlikely to get any good treasures!"

"Uh, so even cultivators seeking treasures are bound by metaphysics?"

Yi Xuan silently complained to himself.

But he was anxious to reach the tower as soon as possible to find Junior Sister Mu.

Who has time to wait for this guy to go treasure hunting with a shovel and a pickaxe?

But we already promised to go together, so it wouldn't be right to leave now just because they're searching for treasure.

After much thought, Yi Xuan finally asked, "Fellow Daoist Fu, is it enough to dig the thing out without using True Essence?"

Although Fu Qianqiu sensed something was off about Yi Xuan's words, he still nodded instinctively, since as long as he didn't use his True Essence, it was in line with his principles.

"In that case, Fellow Daoist Fu, please leave for a moment. I have a way to dig the thing out!"

After seeing Fu Qianqiu move away from there, Yi Xuan immediately controlled the Black Tortoise and fired a series of palm-sized cannon shots at the spot where Fu Qianqiu had just been.

Soon, a large crater appeared in front of the two. Fortunately, because it was in the Eternal Sea, although it caused the seawater to tremble, there was no smoke or mist like on land.

However, Fu Qianqiu stared at the large pit, lost in thought.

Even though he could clearly sense that Yi Xuan hadn't used his True Essence, he still felt that something was off.

Yi Xuan, however, couldn't care less about all that. According to the Black Tortoise's perception, there was indeed a ring lying at the bottom of the pit.

So Black Tortoise flew into the pit, took out the ring, and handed it to Fu Qianqiu.

Although Fu Qianqiu didn't quite approve of Yi Xuan's treasure-hunting methods, the die was cast, and he could only accept the ring and examine its contents.

But upon seeing this, Fu Qianqiu was dumbfounded!

The ring currently contains countless Spirit Stones, and these are not ordinary Spirit Stone, but Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone.

Fu Qianqiu roughly counted, and the number of Spirit Stone here should be no less than two thousand.

This level of inventory is about what a normal second-rate power in Southern Frontier would have.

What kind of incredible luck does it take to receive such a windfall right off the bat?

Fu Qianqiu stared into deep thought as he looked at the palm cannon of the Black Tortoise, and suddenly began to question his own mystical method of using a shovel and pickaxe!
