Because of the discovery of the ancient cave, Fairy Su Mu temporarily put aside her research on the monster's toxicity. In any case, she hadn't figured anything out yet, and perhaps only her master could save her.
This is the second setback Su Muxianzi has suffered since birth. The first was allowing Shi Changqing and Song Xia to get married and have a child.
The group from the Divine Origin Sect stood in front of the cave entrance, studying the formation: "Mother, can you break the formation?"
Fairy Su Mu shook her head and frowned: "Let's leave it to Elder Yuan to solve!"
Elder Yuan was the elder with the highest cultivation level in the Integration Stage who led the team on this trip. He was also a formation master.
The disciples of Shenyuan Sect felt confident that there would be no problem this time, but they didn't know what treasures awaited them inside.
"Everyone, step back."
Upon hearing this, everyone stepped back a few paces, with the remaining two Nascent Soul stage elders and Fairy Su Mu protecting Shi Tianning and Shi Tiankui behind them.
Some Golden Core stage disciples hesitated to speak, but ultimately said nothing. Although they were also excellent inner disciples in the sect, they could never compare to Junior Brother Tianning and Junior Sister Tiankui. Moreover, their junior brother and sister had such important missions to carry out, so they could not afford any accidents.
But sometimes they can't help but wonder, if something had happened to them before, what would it have mattered to them whether the subsequent salvation was successful?
After much deliberation, Elder Yuan finally decided to break the formation by force, and thus launched an attack on the protective array.
"Is this really okay?" Shi Tiankui frowned, worried that the treasure inside might be damaged.
Fairy Su Mu glanced at her indifferently, and Shi Tiankui then shut her mouth.
Perhaps due to the long passage of time and insufficient spiritual energy, the formation was quickly broken, and everyone finally saw the true face of this cave.
Sensing the spiritual energy emanating from within, Elder Tian rarely smiled: "It is indeed the cave dwelling of an ancient powerful being. Everyone, please be careful when you go in."
"yes."
Everyone was thrilled. Unlike the resources allocated by sects, the ancient powerful beings' cave dwellings usually have many things that recognize their own owners. In other words, if ordinary disciples like them obtained the inheritance inside, they would not have to hand it over to the sect.
Elder Yuan was still leading the way, while everyone else protected Shi Tianning and Shi Tiankui in the middle.
"The owner of this cave dwelling seems to have been a powerful figure in the water system in his lifetime."
"This is Qianli Island, surrounded by the sea on all sides, so it's not surprising."
"Legend has it that the true dragon disappeared in the water. Do you think the Dragon Pearl could be in this cave?"
"Dragon Ball? How did you even come up with that?"
"Can't you even think about it? Since he's an ancient water-based powerhouse, he must be able to go deep into the sea and obtain treasures that ordinary people can't get. Isn't that normal?"
“This junior disciple is right,” Fairy Su Mu said with rare certainty. “Since it is a cave that has never been discovered before, it is not surprising that any treasures may appear there.”
Overjoyed at the praise, the disciple possessed a single water spiritual root. Among their group, besides the saviors, Junior Brother Tianning and Junior Sister Tiankui, she was the only one with a single water spiritual root. If she could obtain the inheritance, it wouldn't be impossible for her to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, or even go higher.
"Legend has it that in ancient times, every cultivator could refine their own spatial cave dwelling. This should be it." After passing through a withered bamboo forest, the group saw several bamboo houses, and in front of the bamboo houses was a small, almost dried-up pond.
"Such rich spiritual energy!"
Elder Yuan used his spiritual power to scoop up a handful and examined it carefully: "The reason this cave can maintain its spiritual energy for thousands or even tens of thousands of years must be thanks to this pool of spiritual water."
"There seem to be quite a few top-grade spirit stones at the bottom of the pool." Fairy Su Mu was envious. The cultivators of ancient times were truly wealthy!
"Unfortunately, most of these top-grade spirit stones have had their spiritual essence absorbed by the pool water."
"Perhaps it was because the spiritual energy inside this cave was almost depleted that the formation broke down, which is why we were able to discover it."
"It's all about timing and fate. We can only say that Tianning and Tiankui are indeed the saviors chosen by heaven. Otherwise, why would none of the cultivators on Qianli Island have noticed them all these years, but they have?"
"These bamboos are also rare varieties of spirit bamboo. Although they are about to die, they can still be used as materials for refining weapons."
"I wonder what's inside the bamboo house."
Everyone stared intently at the five bamboo huts before them. This cave dwelling was only so big; the inheritance must be inside the bamboo huts.
"Search each room one by one." Fairy Su Mu set the rule, which greatly disappointed the Golden Core disciples, because this meant they had little hope of getting the treasures to recognize them as their masters.
Although they were dissatisfied, they could not resist and could only obey orders.
"Meng Jie, go and open the first door," Elder Yuan instructed.
"Me?" Meng Jie pointed to herself. She was the one with the single water spiritual root who had just spoken. She knew that Elder Yuan's actions had an element of testing her for danger, but she was indeed tempted because being the first to open it meant there was also a possibility of the treasure recognizing its owner.
Meng Jie took a deep breath and slowly stepped forward, and everyone watched her movements intently.
The bamboo house looks very ordinary. You can tell that the bamboo used to build the house is the same variety as the bamboo planted around it.
When Meng Jie opened the first door, she sensed the presence of the array. However, when she pushed it hard, the array disappeared quietly, and the door creaked open.
Sensing the change, Meng Jie was overjoyed, but before she could go in, one of the Nascent Soul stage elders pulled her away.
"Elder..." Meng Jie was at a loss, anxious, and also angry and annoyed, but she dared not vent her emotions.
"What, you think the treasures inside are yours just because I asked you to open a door?"
Meng Jie quickly lowered her head: "This disciple dares not."
"That's good."
The elder was the first to step inside, and then he discovered that the room was completely different from its exterior. It was much larger inside than it looked, and it turned out to be another internal Qiankun Formation.
Immediately afterwards, Elder Yuan and Fairy Su Mu walked in, and then they saw the room full of aquatic spirit beast corpses and spirit pills, arranged one by one on the shelves, which was quite spectacular. Unfortunately, like the spirit bamboo and the spirit stones in the pool, most of them had lost their spirituality.
"This is actually the skeleton of a dragon!" Everyone was shocked when they saw the largest skeleton, followed by heartache and sorrow. The cultivation world had not seen a dragon for countless years. This dragon skeleton was at least twenty zhang long. If it were refined into a magic weapon, it would be incredibly powerful. Dragon bones could even be used in medicine. But now it was just a worthless skeleton.
"I refuse to believe there isn't a single useful piece of inheritance!" After looking around the house, everyone felt a pang of heartache and disappointment, and then turned their attention to the bamboo house next door.
