Chapter 1158 - 512: The Gains Brought by an Old Rival
In the corner of the stone cave, there was a spring spewing a Spiritual Spring, forming a small pond with a radius of three zhang.Besides that, there were weapon racks, a Seclusion Chamber, and various other items commonly used for cultivation.
Clearly, this was once the residence of a senior, but whether this person was dead or what had become of them, was unknown.
Li Yunjing, Lv Ruoxi, Yu Yunyi, and Fu Chao observed everywhere in the stone cave, collecting treasures, until everything outside was looted clean.
The group approached the bedroom.
Inside the bedroom, walls made of jade stone separated the space, leaving just a dressing table and a large bed.
This large bed appeared unusual; Li Yunjing examined it carefully. Could it be a Tier Three Lower Grade Treasure?
Which senior would be so extravagant?
"A Tier Three Lower Grade Magical Treasure as a bed?"
Fu Chao stroked his chin, walked around the bed three times, and kicked aside the dusty jade pillow under the bed, "Could this senior have used Spirit Stones as bricks?"
Before he finished speaking, Yu Yunyi had already crouched beside the dressing table, her fingertips brushing over the mirror’s surface. She was startled when the dust-laden bronze mirror began to glow, reflecting back her slightly widened pupils: "Look quickly! This mirror is also a Treasure Artifact!"
Lv Ruoxi drew her Soft Sword and lightly struck the jade wall. The sword body quivered, and the wall emitted a clear and resonant tone, like chimes in a symphony.
She raised an eyebrow towards Li Yunjing: "These jade stones might be ’Celestial Sound Jades’; the entire wall is a natural Spirit Gathering Array."
As she spoke, she pressed the sword hilt against the wall, causing the runes on the sword’s blade to light up, with strands of Spiritual Energy flowing along the sword.
Li Yunjing crouched down, pressing his palm against the edge of the bed, sensing a subtle undulation of Spiritual Power.
"This bed is not only a Magical Treasure,"
his gaze swept across the drifting cloud patterns carved at the headboard, "it also contains an Array that emits a stealthy aura."
As he spoke, Li Yunjing’s fingertips condensed Mana, injecting it into the bed. Instantly, the entire surface of the large bed revealed dense Array Patterns, resembling a suspended galaxy.
"My heavens!"
Fu Chao exclaimed in shock, grabbing a nearby embroidered handkerchief. As soon as it touched his hand, it transformed into a stream of light and merged into his palm, "This handkerchief is also a Treasure Artifact!"
"Fu Chao, give me the handkerchief! What does a grown man need with it?"
Lv Ruoxi keenly demanded at once.
"Alas..."
Hearing Lv Ruoxi’s words, Fu Chao had no choice but to hand it over.
"We’ve not just entered a residence; it’s as if we’ve fallen into an Immortal’s treasury!"
Yu Yunyi softly stroked the mirror’s surface, where fleeting shadows suddenly flashed.
A white-clothed cultivator practicing Alchemy, a red-clothed woman playing the zither, the images vanishing within a moment...
"There’s a residual consciousness in this mirror!"
Yu Yunyi said excitedly.
"Residual consciousness implies inheritance!"
Li Yunjing’s pupils contracted sharply, Mana circulated as he cast it into the mirror, attempting to resonate with the residual consciousness within.
The mirror’s surface rippled, and a phantom gradually emerged.
The white-clothed man surrounded by the Pill Furnace, with seventy-two Sword Arrays floating behind him, while every gesture seemed to change the weather...
"My goodness! What level of master is this? He can command seventy-two Sword Arrays alone?"
Fu Chao swallowed, speaking in astonishment.
"Look at the Spiritual Spring!"
Yu Yunyi suddenly exclaimed.
The previously calm pond began to boil, and what spewed from the spring was no longer an ordinary Spiritual Spring but a "Marrow Cleansing Elixir" with brilliant seven-colored light.
Li Yunjing’s eyes flashed, and he immediately took out a Jade Bottle to collect it: "This is a divine substance for Realm Breakthroughs. It’s said that three drops can help a cultivator cleanse their impurities!"
At this moment, everyone was unreserved.
The pond, which hadn’t been thought much of, was actually a Spiritual Spring, and a top-grade one at that, causing the four of them to be overjoyed.
Soon, all the Spiritual Spring in the pond had been collected.
But the underground spring seemed to continue letting bubbles rise bit by bit.
"Could there be an underground spring below?"
Li Yunjing exclaimed in shock.
"If there is an underground Spiritual Spring, then we’ve truly hit the jackpot!"
Lv Ruoxi crouched down, lightly tapping the pond’s surface with her fingertip. The "Marrow Cleansing Elixir" touched her skin, transforming into a stream of light that seeped into her tissue, rejuvenating her fatigue-ridden body from the battle.
Joy flashed in her eyes, "This Spiritual Spring can not only aid in breakthroughs but might be exceptionally beneficial for daily cultivation!"
"Had I known, I would have brought a bigger container!"
Fu Chao eagerly pulled out a large jar, complaining as he poured the Spiritual Spring into it, "Selling this Spiritual Spring could be worth so many Spirit Stones!"
Before he could finish, Yu Yunyi smacked him on the head, "Greedy! Such a divine substance should be kept for personal use!"
Li Yunjing, however, was gazing at the spring, lost in thought. Suddenly, he formed a seal with both hands, sending a surge of Mana into the spring.
The ground trembled violently, and the rocks surrounding the spring crumbled open, revealing a deep, descending tunnel from which the sound of flowing water and subtle Spiritual Power emanated.
"There’s indeed something more beneath!"
Li Yunjing’s eyes brimmed with anticipation, "The quality of this Spiritual Spring far surpasses ordinary ’Marrow Cleansing Elixir’; it might be tied to the inheritance left by that senior."
He turned to the three, "You all watch here. I’ll go down to investigate. If anything happens, I can promptly fall back."
"No way!"
Yu Yunyi grabbed his sleeve, "The situation below is unclear; we’ll go together!"
"Exactly!"
Lv Ruoxi and Fu Chao both nodded, drawing their weapons in preparation.
"Alright, but be careful! This senior who can control seventy-two Sword Arrays has cultivation that reaches the skies and depths, beyond comprehension!"
Li Yunjing sighed, resigned as he led the three into the tunnel.
Within the tunnel, a pale golden mist enveloped them. With each step, the surrounding Spiritual Energy became denser.
Reaching a hundred-zhang depth, a vast underground lake appeared before them, its waters a magnificent spectrum. At the lake’s center floated a pavilion made of transparent crystal.
