"Slurp~!" This time, Chaos Pearl's face turned red and he used three-tenths of his strength.
The incense burner remained motionless.
The Chaos Pearl was furious, and its body turned red. It opened its mouth and sucked hard: "Slurp~~"
"Zhuzhu, wait a minute." The person who spoke was Zhou Yuanyuan.
"Cough cough cough..." This time, it was Chaos Pearl's turn to nearly choke to death. Stopping halfway through exerting force can easily cause internal injuries! Chaos Pearl gave Zhou Yuanyuan a resentful look.
"Zhuzhu~! What I mean is... instead of inhaling directly, why not try turning the small incense burner in a different direction?" Zhou Yuanyuan gave Chaos Pearl an idea.
Zhou Yuanyuan wondered how heavy a palm-sized incense burner could be. She was well aware of the Chaos Pearl's power. With just that one suction, not only would it be impossible for an incense burner, but even an entire mountain wouldn't budge. She suspected the incense burner and the alchemy furnace were connected at the bottom.
Such a strange setting made Zhou Yuanyuan suspect that the alchemy furnace was not an alchemy furnace, and the incense burner was not just an incense burner, but some kind of mechanism.
"Don't use too much force," Zhou Yuanyuan added after a moment's thought. The Chaos Pearl's power was obvious, and Zhou Yuanyuan didn't want to see a small incense burner shattered by it.
Turn around? Although Chaos Pearl didn't understand Zhou Yuanyuan's intention, it still obediently moved the small incense burner in a clockwise direction.
Sure enough, the small incense burner started to turn. At the same time, the ground beneath Zhou Yuanyuan and Wen Ziqing's feet shook, and a series of "zazaza" sounds were heard.
The sound lasted for more than twenty seconds. Following this movement, half of the floor of the alchemy room "collapsed", revealing a long staircase.
Wen Ziqing blurted out, "The private treasury of the Yushan Sect leader?"
"Is this really a treasure trove? That's great!" Zhou Yuanyuan was overjoyed. She loved games like treasure hunts; it reminded her of the secret room she found in Zhou Chunping's house in Zhoujia Village when she was little, and it gave her a great sense of accomplishment.
Wen Ziqing frowned as he gazed at the long staircase. Somehow, Taoist Baopu's memory of this treasure house was incomplete. Wen Ziqing only managed to retrieve fragments of it from his memories. For example, the door wasn't the two worn wooden doors we see today, but a tall stone door. Another example: the treasure house contained numerous large storage bags filled with spirit stones and elixirs, including a number of thousand-year-old spirit plants encased in jade boxes. However, the number of magical treasures was relatively small.
Also... the treasures in the treasury cannot be taken at will. The successive leaders of the Yushan Sect can only enter the treasury once a year, and each time they enter, they can only choose three treasures. Otherwise, the stone door of the treasury is not easy to open. If you take too many treasures, you won't be able to get out...
But at the end of the stairs in front of him were two low wooden doors, which looked nothing like what Taoist Baopu remembered.
Wen Ziqing held Zhou Yuanyuan's hand and stood at the stairs, hesitating a little.
Zhou Yuanyuan's mood was completely different from Wen Ziqing's. Although the two wooden doors looked a bit tattered, Zhou Yuanyuan's heart was still filled with excitement.
In order to "test" how many treasures were in the secret room in advance, Zhou Yuanyuan released her spiritual sense and covered the wooden door.
Strangely, Zhou Yuanyuan's spiritual consciousness could not rush into the wooden door to see what was going on. Instead, it was "slid" past the wooden door and followed an arc to a room in the back hall.
In the side room of the rear hall, Ling Xiaotian was diligently practicing the "Furnace and Cauldron Technique".
Pure spiritual energy continuously flowed into Ling Xiaotian's body from the female cultivator who was building her foundation. Without going through the "big circle" in Ling Xiaotian's body to be refined, it directly entered his dantian and was stored.
The feeling of spiritual energy filling his dantian made Ling Xiaotian feel very refreshed, as if he was flying in the clouds.
Under the control of the "Silk-Channeling" technique, the female cultivator closed her eyes tightly, her body pressed tightly against Ling Xiaotian, completely unaware of the abnormal leakage of spiritual energy from her dantian. With each absorption of spiritual energy by Ling Xiaotian, the female cultivator's originally smooth skin gradually became duller.
Ling Xiaotian was at the critical moment when he suddenly sensed a slight vibration coming from the ground.
At this time, the spiritual consciousness released by Zhou Yuanyuan just arrived above Ling Xiaotian's head.
Ling Xiaotian felt the hairs on his back stand up. A sense of urgent danger made him risk the backflow of his spiritual energy and roll off the cauldron.
Oh no! Someone's invading! Just as this thought flashed through Ling Xiaotian's mind, the spiritual energy in his body reversed, continuously rushing back and surging. Ling Xiaotian felt a tightness in his chest, and with a "wow" he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Before Ling Xiaotian could make any move, Zhou Yuanyuan launched a spiritual attack that pierced into Ling Xiaotian's sea of consciousness.
Ling Xiaotian only felt a sharp pain in his sea of consciousness. Before he saw the invading "enemy", he felt a black screen in front of his eyes and fainted.
"Shameless!" Zhou Yuanyuan cursed with a red face after she withdrew her consciousness. Zhou Yuanyuan didn't expect to see such an "explosive" scene. She had clearly heard Zhu Xiaozhao, who was guarding the foot of the mountain, say that the master was in seclusion for cultivation, but she didn't expect this kind of cultivation method.
Otherwise, Zhou Yuanyuan wouldn't have released her spiritual sense to explore the secret room. It was strange, how could this secret room "slip" her spiritual sense away? Could there be a formation here?
"Yuanyuan, what's wrong?" Wen Ziqing was confused by Zhou Yuanyuan's scolding. Although he was a little excited as he held Zhou Yuanyuan's little hand, he didn't have time to do anything!
"Brother Ziqing, I knocked Liu Jingyu unconscious. Go over and see if he has any good stuff. We might as well rob him too." Zhou Yuanyuan pushed Tuan Ziqing's arm and said with a red face.
"Liu Jingyu" Yuanyuan was knocked unconscious. Why is she blushing?
"Brother Ziqing, it's that...that that, they are not wearing any clothes!" Zhou Yuanyuan saw Wen Ziqing looking at her with a confused look, and she couldn't help but stamp her feet. She stretched out a finger and embarrassedly pointed in the direction of the back hall where Ling Xiaotian was.
Ten minutes later, Wen Ziqing ran angrily from the back hall back to the alchemy room. This 'Liu Jingyu' was too much, actually doing that in broad daylight. Wen Ziqing decided to let Zhou Yuanyuan "wash her eyes" when he got home. With Liu Jingyu's puny physique, how could he be as muscular as him?
Wen Ziqing also came back with several storage bags and a key that Ling Xiaotian wore around his neck.
Seeing Wen Ziqing's sullen expression, Zhou Yuanyuan couldn't help but turn her head and smirk. Were she and Wen Ziqing experts at breaking up a couple? A visit to the Sect Leader's Hall might frighten Sect Leader Liu and leave him with a traumatic memory.
