"This is indeed a treasure land."

Among the passing cultivators, someone occasionally marveled at this place, noting that this trip was not in vain.

Although each of them had not weak cultivation, everyone’s cultivation was suppressed below the Domain Realm, and even their Divine Sense was suppressed, making them unable to sense Li Chen’s existence.

Even if Li Chen passed right by them, they wouldn’t notice his presence.

Similarly, Li Chen didn’t pay attention to these people.

What Li Chen noticed was that weak aura.

This aura was difficult to detect, but Li Chen felt a sense of familiarity from this weak aura. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

It was precisely because of this familiar feeling that Li Chen temporarily set aside even Tian Yi and the others.

"It seems like there’s something here. Did you sense it?"

"Indeed, it’s somewhat different from other places here. This is a treasure land, should we dig?"

"Let’s dig, as long as we haven’t gone deep into this mystic realm; it’s just the outer area, there shouldn’t be any danger."

Three cultivators gathered together, seemingly discussing something, and judging from their features, the three seemed to be powerful figures from the Demon Realm.

Beside the three of them was a small mound of earth, which seemed unremarkable on the surface, but a faint aura fluctuation was surging near the mound, which made them suspect whether something valuable was inside.

"Gentlemen, have you found something good?" A light laugh suddenly came from behind the three.

The three demons were startled by the sudden voice, quickly turning their heads to see a black-clad youth smiling at them.

Recognizing Li Chen, the three powerful figures from the Demon Realm became slightly wary.

"You are... the one who opened the Mystic Realm Gate?"

"I am Li Chen." Li Chen smiled, nodding, "It seems you have discovered something good; I wonder if I might have the honor to join in this treasure hunt?"

Listening to Li Chen’s words, the three were a bit hesitant.

Truth be told, they weren’t keen on staying with someone as mysterious as Li Chen.

Not for any other reason, but this guy was indeed too mysterious.

Outside the mystic realm, none of them could understand that Great Formation, but somehow Li Chen not only understood it but also found a method to break it. This alone warranted caution.

Being able to break such a mysterious and eerie formation, it’s apparent that his level on the Formation Path is not low.

In a place like the Regretless Mountain Range, who is the scariest?

Not the Daoist Lord Level powerhouse with supreme cultivation, nor the madman who battles across ranks, but the Formation Master!

Although everyone’s cultivation is suppressed here, the art of formations is not subject to this limitation.

Perhaps, you are a top-level Ninth Order Expert in the outside world, but in a ghostly place like the Regretless Mountain Range, a seventh or eighth rank formation might easily kill you.

Therefore, a strong individual in the Formation Path in such a place is far scarier than anyone could imagine.

The three exchanged looks, eventually nodding in agreement.

"Brother Li wishes to join us in treasure digging; it’s our honor!"

"Indeed, with the three of us united, and with Brother Li’s help, we’re sure to navigate this mystic realm smoothly." The other two smiled.

Since the decision had been made, there was no point regretting it.

Instead of showing displeasure and offending others, it’s better to see it through.

The three demonic figures had lived long, understanding this simple reasoning.

Li Chen nodded, not caring, casually approaching the three, and also stared at the inconspicuous little mound.

Just now, that weak aura was emanating from here.

And that sense of familiarity was also coming from here.

Looking at the little mound, Li Chen’s eyes slightly narrowed, a mysterious light shone in his eyes.

"Brother Li, have you discovered anything?"

Noticing Li Chen standing in front of the mound in silence for a while, the three couldn’t help but ask when he finally looked away.

"There is indeed something inside." Li Chen nodded.

"Really?" The three demonic figures were taken aback, then smiled.

Although this was just the periphery, making the chances of digging out some brilliant treasure low, some gain was still better than none.

"But what a pity." Li Chen said, shaking his head, "It’s not something useful."

Speaking, he waved his hand, and the mound disintegrated, revealing what was inside.

Seeing the contents of the mound, the three Demon Realm experts couldn’t help showing disappointment.

Li Chen hadn’t deceived them; the item within the mound was indeed quite unremarkable.

It was a broken flute, the Jade Flute was full of damages, and even the aura on it was about to dissipate.

Once the last bit of aura dissipated, the Jade Flute would likely become a mere useless trinket.

Such an item, not to mention them, even their disciples or their descendants wouldn’t fancy it.

Li Chen took the Jade Flute, gently caressed it, then smiled at the demonic figures, "I quite like this flute, and would like to take it back for reshaping and reforging. Would you be willing to part with it? I’m willing to compensate you with other things."

Saying so, Li Chen took out three pills.

"Return to True Pill, Return to Origin Pill, Purple Path Pill!"

Seeing the three pills in Li Chen’s hand, the three couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath.

These pills could be regarded as some of the top-level Recovery Pills. Even for them, these were extremely precious items. Yet Li Chen was offering three different ones just to exchange for this seemingly useless Jade Flute?

"Casually refined. If you don’t mind, just accept them." Li Chen said with a smile.

Li Chen spoke with nonchalance, but the three couldn’t help but be startled.

During the previous conversation, they had slightly warned Li Chen by implying that they were together, asking him to consider any intentions carefully.

Yet now, Li Chen was casually handing over top-level Recovery Pills, the underlying message made the three shudder.

Casually refined?

These top-level Recovery Pills, were they really self-refined?

It indicated not only was he a top-level Formation Path Grandmaster; he was also a formidable Pill Master?

Ordinary folks often say in the Jianghu, there are three not to provoke: the elderly, women, and children.

In the cultivator world, there’s a similar rule: don’t provoke the fortune-teller, the healer, and the one who sells medicine.

And Pill Masters often have a profound foundation in medicine. Hence, a strong Pill Master can be said to encompass both healing and selling medicine.

This shows how significant the Pill Master’s identity is in the world of cultivators.
