Chen Xiao was a Feng Shui master before his death. He changed his fate to save his master, but died of old age.
When he opened his eyes, he came to a world of immortal cultivation where there...
The time spent on the way back and forth, plus the time they spent on cleaning, had already passed an hour. Although Tang Ru and Tong Nuonuo didn't say anything, Chen Xiao felt guilty. He felt that these two people had guessed that they had just done something so shameful.
Tang Ru and Tong Nuonuo had already eaten, and food was being heated up on the stove for them.
When there are no outsiders, there are four people on night watch, each on duty for one hour, so as to ensure that they have enough rest time every day.
It was Tong Nuonuo's turn. Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting didn't say much. They ate and took a rest.
Chen Xiao went to bed late, but still got up as soon as the sun rose. The oasis was where Yan Hai's treasure was hidden, and everyone was so excited that they couldn't sleep.
Yan Hai hid the treasure he had intercepted in the rocky mountains. He was proficient in sand magic and could disguise the place where the treasure was hidden to make it blend in perfectly with the surroundings. If he hadn't told them the location himself, Chen Xiao and the others would never have been able to find it.
After determining the location, Xi Yunting used magic to blast away the rocks blocking the outside, revealing a large cave inside.
Tong Nuonuo and Tang Ru rushed in first, followed closely by Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting.
With the light from outside, the cave was not dark. After seeing the scene inside clearly, Chen Xiao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. There were only a few boxes piled together in the cave.
He thought Yan Hai's treasure was like the treasure house of the thief found by Alibaba, with all kinds of rare treasures in it. The immortal cultivators obviously had a different understanding from him. The gold, silver and jewelry in the mortal world were not as valuable to them as a spiritual pearl.
As for the looted magical instruments and equipment, if they were not wearing them themselves, they were also exchanged for money in the market.
Chen Xiao wondered whether the magic weapon that looked like tree bark had ended up in a shop in the market because of this.
Tong Nuonuo opened a box, which was full of spiritual beads. Tang Ru asked him to move the box away and opened the one below, which was also full of spiritual beads.
Tong Nuonuo estimated and said, "This box can hold about 20,000 to 30,000 spiritual beads."
Tang Ru finally had a concrete idea. She took a breath and said, "Twenty to thirty thousand spirit beads." She looked at the seven large boxes placed in the cave, stretched out her hand and frowned as she began to count. "Two boxes are forty to fifty thousand. Three boxes are..."
Chen Xiao looked helplessly at Tang Ru, who was in distress, and said, "Based on the average of 25,000 beads in each box, there are a total of 175,000 spirit beads in the cave. The actual number should be no more than 10,000 or 20,000."
Tong Nuonuo was also shocked by the number: "Oh my god, there are so many!"
Xi Yunting raised his eyebrows and said, "This is enough to be comparable to the entire wealth of a small cultivation sect or aristocratic family."
Chen Xiao turned around and said in surprise: "How can a small immortal cultivation family have so much money?"
Xi Yunting shook his head and said, "No, this also includes the value of the mountain gate and various industries. With this unexpected wealth, Xiaodi, when you establish a sect in the future, you won't have to worry about expenses for a hundred years."
Chen Xiao shook his head: "This amount of spiritual beads does not belong to me alone, everyone has a share. I said before that I would talk about establishing a sect after I reach the golden elixir stage, but it is still too early for that time. After these spiritual beads are divided, I think everyone in at least two major realms will not have to worry about resources. Only our cultivation is the foundation for our future."
Tang Ru nodded: "Xiao Xiao is right. As long as you don't mind, I will become a guest official in your sect in the future."
In the world of immortal cultivation, people who do not belong to the sect but have a relatively high status in the sect are called guest officials or offerings. The difference between the two is that guest officials do not need to pay any price from the sect, while offerings enjoy the benefits provided by the sect.
Xi Yunting also said: "Brother also volunteers to be a guest official of your sect."
Tong Nuonuo quickly raised her hand and said, "And me, I also want to be a guest official of Xiaoxiao Sect."
Chen Xiao was somewhat touched. He said, "How can that be possible? If you come, you will definitely be treated as a worshiper!"
After some chatting and laughing, the few of them looked around the cave again and confirmed that there was nothing else except the boxes, so they simply divided the spirit beads into four parts. Everyone had storage tools, so it was not a problem to load these boxes.
Xi Yunting did something at this time, which almost made Chen Xiao blush. He stuffed his copy directly into Chen Xiao's hand, and even let him keep it in the name of keeping it.
Tang Ru and Tong Nuonuo didn't even bother to look at the two of them and ran out of the cave as if they were escaping.
Chen Xiao and Xi Yunting waited for a while before coming out. Chen Xiao tried to act as if nothing had happened and said, "What should we do with this cave? Should we just leave it alone?"
He was just making small talk, but Xi Yunting took it seriously and thought about it for a while, "If you are worried, Xiao, just collapse this cave."
After saying that, he mobilized his true energy, a sword flashed, and large chunks of rubble fell from the top of the cave, blocking the cave tightly.
"..." Chen Xiao didn't say anything for a long time. This action was too fast! He decided to think twice before speaking in the future.
After returning to the campsite, Tong Nuonuo spread out the spoils he had collected from the robbers yesterday all over the floor.
He said: "I think there will be a fierce battle at Stonehenge. If there is anything useful, everyone should come and pick it up, so that you won't be in trouble when the time comes."
Tang Ru waved his hand and said, "I don't need it. I think what I have is enough."
Chen Xiao leaned over to take a look.
These magic clothes, magic weapons and weapons taken from the robbers were very mixed and messy. Needless to say, the magic clothes were equipped according to their respective needs, and there was no one more suitable than them.
Tong Nuonuo, a mechanical engineer, doesn't need these magic weapons. As a sword cultivator, Xi Yunting has no use for magic weapons other than some special magic weapons.
Chen Xiao knew his own shortcomings. His vitality was slow to circulate, and the corresponding magic weapon also reacted slowly. No magic weapon was as useful as a paper talisman that could be activated quickly.
Chen Xiao thought for a moment and picked up a palm-sized building ship. This magic weapon was called Mirage, which was the key that Yan Hai used to create illusions and harm practitioners.
He handed the mirage to Tang Ru and said, "Yan Hai said that the environment over at Stonehenge is better than here in the wilderness. Take this, and if conditions permit, use it to create some fake trees, vines, and bushes to cover your spell attacks."
Tang Ru's eyes lit up after hearing this. He did not object anymore and took the Mirage in his hands.
Xi Yunting picked up Yan Hai's storage bag from the pile of things and said to Chen Xiao, "Brother Xiao, use this first and hide the storage box close to your body."
Chen Xiao wanted to refuse because he felt that the storage bag was not as useful as the storage box. Not to mention the powerful classification ability of the storage box that can set the layout of the space, the storage box tied to his wrist made it very convenient for him to take things, especially paper talismans. The storage bag was not good, and he had to put it directly in his clothes, either in his arms or in his sleeves.
As a result, even Tong Nonuo agreed that he should not use the storage box for the time being, which puzzled Chen Xiao. Tong Nonuo said, "The evil cultivators are targeting the weapon refiners. You are too obvious with the storage box, so they will definitely target you first."
For safety reasons, Chen Xiao had to transfer some of the items in the storage box into the storage bag, and then put the storage box close to his body.
Due to some mysterious reasons, if a storage tool is filled with something, it cannot be put into another storage tool. Tong Nuonuo originally wanted him to empty the storage box and then put the storage box directly into the storage bag.
However, Chen Xiao was not willing to do so. There were no divided grids in the storage bag. If he changed them all, the pile of paper talismans and blank talisman papers would be messed up.
Tang Ru used magic to transform Tengman into a huge parasol. Several people sat under it, and the steam from the nearby lake kept them from getting too hot.
Tong Nuonuo said with a serious expression: "According to yesterday's interrogation, there are a total of five evil cultivators in the Stonehenge area. The leader's cultivation level is unknown. Yan Hai said that he is at least in the Nascent Soul stage, and it is very likely to be higher. Among the other four, one is a weapon refiner. He is not an evil cultivator, but an evil way."
Chen Xiao tilted his head and asked Xi Yunting in a low voice: "What does evil mean?"
Xi Yunting said: "It refers to the cultivators who were born in the right path, but eventually fell into the wrong path, joined the evil cultivators, and were driven by the evil cultivators."
Tong Nuonuo nodded: "The purpose of that group of people is very clear. They captured the weapon refiner just for the secret treasure of the grandmaster on the bark map."
"The other three seem to be just ordinary subordinates, taking turns to go out for supplies. But even if they are minions, they are very powerful, with the cultivation base of the Golden Core Stage." Tang Ru leaned against the thick Tengman pillar with a casual movement, "I think with our strength, a head-on conflict is impossible. We can only think of ways to take advantage of it."
Chen Xiao tapped his chin with his finger and said, "Yan Hai said they have been here for two or three years, but they are still arresting weapon refiners everywhere. This means they don't know the exact location, or the clues are not enough for them to find a way in."
Xi Yunting, who had been listening to their conversation, spoke up. He said, "I think we can use a feint to the east and attack in the west to lure them away."
Chen Xiaoguang knew what he meant when he heard this, and immediately objected, "No, I don't agree with you leading him away! You have to know that this is not a simple beast like the cat beast, but an evil cultivator who may be in the out-of-body stage!"
Tang Ru scratched his hair and said, "I am now somewhat thankful that I met Yan Hai and his gang of wilderness bandits first and learned about the existence of this group of evil cultivators first. Otherwise, if we approached them rashly, we would definitely be in great danger."
Tong Nuonuo said worriedly and solemnly: "A leader above the Nascent Soul stage, plus three Golden Core stage, and a weapon refiner who has no idea what trump card he has. This lineup is very difficult to deal with."
Chen Xiao did not focus on Tong Nuonuo's words. He said with shining eyes: "Yan Hai! Yes, it's Yan Hai! How could I forget him!"
Xi Yunting was the first to understand what he meant and said, "Are you planning to impersonate this group of bandits and enter Stonehenge?" He thought about it and nodded, "How? You should know that this group of evil cultivators are not easy neighbors to talk to."
Chen Xiao laughed, raised the storage box and said, "The whereabouts of a weapon refiner, how about this reason?"
