"After Elder Duan's accident, this courtyard was searched by at least three waves of people. Even Elder Duan Shuang's cold jade bed was moved away and confiscated. Could it be that this hidden thing has not been searched away?"

Jiang Li stepped hard on the floor tile and felt that it was clearly solid underneath.

But speaking of it, it would be strange if the things hidden by an elder in the Jindan stage were too easy to be discovered.

Jiang Li was actually skeptical about his dream last night. After all, it was just a dream. Could it be that he was dreaming about something during the day?

After thinking about it, Jiang Li squatted down and punched the bluestone slab.

"Humph, just a piece of stone... Damn it hurts!"

Jiang Li covered his fist with a look of disbelief.

He was a man who dug a swimming pool out of a rock with his bare hands, but he was defeated by a stone slab? This was not a fairy tale.

Now he seriously suspected that there was something wrong behind this stone slab!

Otherwise, even the floor of an elder in the Jindan stage’s home could not be paved with such good materials.

Jiang Li thought about it and took out the damaged flying sword from the burial coffin.

The material of the Shushan Flying Sword is absolutely impeccable. Even though it is in a damaged state now, it is the most suitable tool Jiang Li has for prying floor tiles.

He pushed the wooden bed open, then picked up the slightly curved flying sword and inserted it into the gap between the floor tiles.

The bluestone brick was so tightly bonded to the ground that Jiang Li couldn't pry it open even with his first effort.

But it didn't matter. Jiang Li settled for the next best thing. He first dug up all the eight bluestone bricks around the floor tile and then started digging the ground from the edge.

After disintegrating its foundation from bottom to top, it finally seemed as if something had been dug up. The bluestone slab suddenly loosened and was lifted up by Jiang Li.

On the back of the bluestone slab, a mysterious array pattern was carved on it. After being lifted up by Jiang Li, it still emitted a faint fluorescence.

Hidden... Hard... Adsorbed... ? Jiang Li barely recognized these few runes in the array pattern.

Putting the stone slab aside for the time being, Jiang Li took out a small cloth bag from a hole in the ground!

The touch made Jiang Li feel excited even through the cloth bag.

With an excited heart and trembling hands, Jiang Li untied the cloth bag, and two small diamond-shaped crystals rolled out from it.

This crystal stone looks very similar to the spirit stone, except that in the translucent material, you can see tiny strands of gold threads moving around.

This... seems to be a top-grade spiritual stone, right? Forgive Jiang Li for being poor, so far, he has never seen a real top-grade spiritual stone.

That is a good thing worth ten thousand upper and lower grade spirit stones.

He brought the spirit stone to his nose and sniffed it. A stream of pure spiritual energy rushed into his nostrils, stimulating him so much that he shuddered violently.

"Oh my god, what a delicious taste! This must be a top-grade spirit stone."

Medium-grade and low-grade spirit stones contain many impurities and cannot be used directly by cultivators without the help of specific formations.

But high-quality spirit stones are different. The pure spiritual energy can be quickly refined by any technique, and the effect of restoring spiritual energy and increasing cultivation is far greater than that of basic elixirs.

This thing is very useful to me.

Jiang Li's eyes flashed with brilliance.

It takes about five years for a top-grade spiritual root to break through to the foundation-building stage with the help of elixirs.

His current cultivation speed, under the blessing of his current state, is basically on par with that of a cultivator with top-grade spiritual roots who does not take elixirs, or perhaps even faster.

I don’t know how long it will take me to establish my Taoist foundation after using this top-grade spirit stone.

Jiang Li licked his dry lips, forced himself to calm down, and then properly put away the two top-grade spirit stones.

Now the question is, why would Elder Duan Shuang, who was about to defect from the sect, leave these things in the sect? Could it be that he was determined to die when he refined the Golden Pill Corpse Pill?

Do you plan to refine the golden elixir at the cost of your own death, and then rely on the seeds of spiritual roots to reincarnate as an innocent disciple, rejoin the Sutra Valley, and then make a comeback with these savings?

It’s terrifying when you think about it.

Jiang Li was still a little uneasy as he thought about the spiritual root in the coffin.

To be honest, he is still not sure whether the seed came from Elder Duan Shuang.

If it was, it would be fine. If not, the other party might have sneaked back to the sect quietly. Then, if I occupied the courtyard where he buried his treasures, wouldn't I die miserably?

This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

Never mind. I don’t want to think about this for now.

Even if Elder Duan Shuang was really reincarnated as someone else, he could only be an outer disciple who returned. Jiang Li could take precautions by keeping an eye on that outer disciple who suddenly rose up.

After putting a few pieces of bluestone floor back in place, Jiang Li ran to several other places, found places where things were buried, and dug out everything one by one.

Looking at the items on the table, what else can Jiang Li say? Guanyin Heart Sutra is awesome! That dream is simply a dimensionality reduction attack. These places where things are hidden cannot be found by other methods.

The Elders' Courtyard was expensive to build, and even if the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall searched it, they did not dare to destroy it at will, so naturally they could not find what was hidden inside.

But in Jiang Li's dream, these things were invisible. When he walked around the courtyard in his dream, he saw them easily.

It’s a pity that the dream Jiang Li had was not a lucid dream. He couldn’t control his actions in the dream, so he didn’t really explore all the places in the courtyard.

This also means that there may be some treasures left by Elder Duan Shuang hidden in this courtyard, which makes him look forward to his next sleep.

Wait a minute, I seem to have forgotten something? Jiang Li looked at the ray of sunlight coming in from the window, a drop of cold sweat appeared on his forehead and slowly slid down. He instinctively felt that something was wrong.

After all this house-destroying work, it was already bright outside.

Jiang Li suddenly remembered that his chief master seemed to be still waiting for him. At this hour, he was afraid that he would be late.

He immediately thought that something was wrong and rushed out of the door, running hurriedly towards the training ground where he had practiced yesterday.

At this time, Elder He was looking at the jar of boiling potion in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"Could it be that Jiang Li already knows what we are going to do today?"

"Who on earth told him that? It's really outrageous."

As he spoke, Elder He sprinkled a handful of "peppercorns" into the large vat and added two more pieces of firewood underneath.

Dear brothers, please vote when you have time.
