Chapter 767: Chapter 757 Peeking into the Treasure Pavilion
The defenses of the Stars Tower Treasure Vault truly live up to their reputation.
Under Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense perception attached to the Earth Spiritual Power, Deacon Ding first twisted and turned into an underground passage. Just a hundred meters into the entrance, there appeared a Spiritual Power Sealed Gate, in front of which were two Martial Artists dressed in Stars Tower attire, sitting cross-legged and awaiting.
Due to Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense being attached to Earth Spiritual Power on a speck smaller than dust on Deacon Ding’s back, the Divine Sense was extremely weak, unable to sense the cultivation aura of the two Martial Artists.
However, judging by Deacon Ding’s respectful demeanor, Ye Zhen estimated that these two guards were likely Vein Forging Realm experts.
The two Stars Tower Martial Artists guarding the gate first inspected Deacon Ding’s Identity Jade Token, then took out a Jade Talisman for registration, before signaling Deacon Ding to step forward, casting a Talisman Light onto Deacon Ding’s head.
Wow!
A massive amount of cyan Spiritual Power poured down from Deacon Ding’s head like a waterfall, cleansing everything attached to Deacon Ding.
At that moment, Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense trembled violently; the Divine Sense attached to the Earth Spiritual Power was shattered and scattered due to the cyan Spiritual Power.
This massive cyan Spiritual Power waterfall continued for three breaths’ time, during which Deacon Ding was washed from head to toe, emanating an aura of Spiritual Energy.
Ye Zhen’s face suddenly turned dark.
It was close, almost all of his Divine Sense attached to Deacon Ding was cleansed.
Fortunately, when Ye Zhen nailed the Earth Spiritual Power into Deacon Ding, he made a slight move, and four strands of Earth Spiritual Power were anchored at Deacon Ding’s spleen.
The human body is an extremely mysterious entity, with the five internal organs divided according to the Five Elements: lungs, liver, kidneys, heart, spleen, respectively corresponding to metal, wood, water, fire, earth Five Elements Spiritual Power.
When infants are in the mother’s body, these lungs, liver, kidneys, heart, and spleen contain a trace of innate Five Elements Qi. However, once born, these innate Five Elements Qi in the five organs are contaminated by everything in the secular world, transforming into acquired Five Elements Qi.
Ordinary people have extremely weak acquired Five Elements Qi in their five organs, almost imperceptible. However, Martial Artists, through cultivation, have organs hundreds or even thousands of times more powerful than ordinary people, with very strong acquired Five Elements Qi in their five organs.
The spleen, however, is the body’s only organ that contains Earth Spiritual Power, regardless of which Five Attribute Cultivation Technique a Martial Artist practices, their spleen contains a strong Earth Spiritual Power.
Unless a Martial Artist has refined their flesh into an Innate Spiritual Body, and it must be a Great Accomplishment Innate Spiritual Body, to eliminate the impurities in the body, becoming a pure Innate Spiritual Body.
Thus, when Ye Zhen nailed the Earth Spiritual Power into Deacon Ding’s spleen, one of Ye Zhen’s Divine Senses attached itself to that trace of Earth Spiritual Power within Deacon Ding’s body.
This sudden Spiritual Power rinse completely washed away all alien Spiritual Powers attached to Deacon Ding’s body, including the dozens of Earth Spiritual Power Ye Zhen nailed, and accordingly, the fused Divine Sense was also erased.
Only the trace of Divine Sense fused with Deacon Ding’s intrinsic Earth Spiritual Power remained briefly. However, even this frightened Ye Zhen enormously; the Divine Sense fused into Deacon Ding’s body’s Earth Spiritual Power was very shallow, slightly deeper, and it would have been over.
After the Spiritual Power cleansing, Deacon Ding took out a golden Jade Talisman, infused Spiritual Power, and a large golden brilliance enveloped his body.
Then, Deacon Ding, enveloped in the golden brilliance, slowly moved toward the Sealing Gate, slowly squeezing in like syrup through a narrow passage, and with a sigh of relief, continued into the passage.
The passage was almost a half-vertical downward passage, quite narrow, allowing at most two people to walk side by side, supported by the famously hard Black Stone of Zhu, dark and unlit, with thin light provided by Brightstones embedded at the top.
This passage stretched forward for nearly a thousand meters.
This greatly surprised Ye Zhen, as with this passage’s semi-vertical slope, a thousand meters long passage must extend at least five hundred meters underground.
If not personally sensing it with Divine Sense, Ye Zhen could hardly believe that the most important Treasure Vault within Stars Tower’s domain descended more than five hundred meters underground.
Moreover, this depth could be even greater, as Ye Zhen only had an extremely weak trace of Divine Sense attached to Deacon Ding, with unclear perception.
After almost a thousand meters semi-vertical movement, an immensely heavy and oppressive fire-colored Sealing Gate appeared before Deacon Ding.
Upon seeing this fire-colored Sealing Gate, Ye Zhen was startled; the Fire Element Spiritual Power guarding this seal was clearly drawn from underground Fire Vein or even magma, radiating terrifying heat, forcing Deacon Ding to struggle to maintain his Protective Spirit Armor.
This Fire Element Spiritual Power, drawn from underground Fire Vein or magma, not only possesses powerful defensive capabilities but if attacked, could also hurt others with its terrifying power.
Moreover, before this fire-spiritual power guarded seal sat four red-haired, red-bearded, tremendously powerful Martial Artists, who seemed very comfortable before this Fire Element Spiritual Power Guardianship, likely Martial Artists specializing in Fire Element Techniques.
Seeing these four martial artists cultivating Fire Element Techniques, Deacon Ding respectfully handed over a jade talisman and then waited outside the door.
The jade talisman was passed around by the four martial artists cultivating Fire Element Techniques, and then two of them abruptly stood up, retrieved a storage ring from a nearby cabinet, and received one or two fire talismans from a guard who seemed to be the leader. The two guards then stepped into the Fire Spirit Power protective sealing under the wrapping of the fire talisman light. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
Watching this scene, Deacon Ding was somewhat envious, because even with his position, he could only enter this place and had no right to access the true treasure vault of the Stars Tower.
In the entire True Spirit Domain Stars Tower, the only ones able to enter this treasure vault are the four guards in front of him and Tower Master Yan Cong. As for others, no matter who they are, entering without permission means death!
Around the protective spiritual power sealing, there were various talisman patterns scattered. Vaguely, Ye Zhen could also sense several small channels leading directly to the ground, which could possibly be ventilation ducts, but Ye Zhen believed they were more likely alarm channels.
Should there be an unexpected incident here, it can be quickly communicated to the ground. It can be imagined that the current defense measures Ye Zhen saw for the treasure vault are likely the most basic ones.
If someone were to invade, other terrifying defensive forces would probably emerge immediately.
Deacon Ding couldn’t get in and could only wait here, so Ye Zhen couldn’t glimpse the full view of the Stars Tower Treasure Vault either. However, through this observation, Ye Zhen could at least confirm the specific location of the Stars Tower Treasure Vault.
About half a quarter-hour later, the two guards who went in earlier appeared from behind the protective spiritual power’s Earth sealing. Looking at their careful demeanor, there should be a powerful formation guarding behind the protective spiritual power sealing.
A few breaths later, Deacon Ding confirmed the number of treasures in the storage ring, signed the talisman seal with each other, and then returned the way he came.
A hundred breaths later, Deacon Ding returned to the VIP private room where Ye Zhen was staying.
By this time, Ye Zhen had already resumed his previous disguise as the flamboyant Master Mu, looking at Deacon Ding with a ** expression, "Hey, did you ask about that matter I mentioned?"
As he spoke, Ye Zhen familiarly patted Deacon Ding’s back a few times, breaking the divine sense attached above, leaving no trace thereafter.
Deacon Ding was momentarily stunned, "Master Mu, I’m sorry, I was just retrieving the demon cores and did not inquire. How about I go ask now!"
"Forget it, let’s do the transaction first; you can ask afterward!" Ye Zhen waved his hand carelessly.
Actually, that maid was just an excuse for Ye Zhen, whether asked or not didn’t matter, but of course, for a performance, it had to be done fully.
"Master Mu, here are thirty-four Heavenly Level High Grade demon cores, altogether requiring six million eight hundred thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals. Additionally, there are twenty-one Heavenly Level Middle Grade Wind Element demon cores. The Wind Element demon core is one of the mutant spiritual power demon cores, and also mostly from flying demon beasts, thus they are quite rare.
There are as many as seventy-six Heavenly Level Lower Grade Wind Element demon cores, all right here.
Among them, one Heavenly Level Middle Grade Wind Element demon core is worth one hundred thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, and one Heavenly Level Lower Grade demon core is forty thousand, totaling eleven million nine hundred forty thousand Mid-grade Crystals.
According to our Stars Tower’s rules, customers with transactions over a million Mid-grade Spirit Crystals can be given a half-percent discount, and those over ten million Mid-grade Spirit Crystals can be given a one-percent discount.
Therefore, if Master Mu wishes to take these demon cores, it will require paying us Stars Tower a total of ten million seven hundred forty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals." After calculating the accounts, Deacon Ding quietly looked at Ye Zhen.
"Over ten million Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, it’s a bit tight on my end, do you accept items as credit at the Stars Tower?" Ye Zhen suddenly asked.
"Of course we do; Stars Tower is in the business of buying and selling!" Deacon Ding replied.
"Great, I have some miscellaneous pills and other valuable herbs here, give them a price!" Ye Zhen said.
"Alright, please bring them out, Master Mu....."
With a clatter, before Deacon Ding could finish speaking, he was dumbfounded, staring at the small mountain of items before him, with a twitch at the corner of his mouth, wondering if Ye Zhen had robbed a sect’s treasure vault or stolen the storage ring of some Establishment Realm King?
Sharp-eyed Deacon Ding even spotted a few bottles of pills that only an Establishment Realm King could use, and rings worth at least twenty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, exceeding ten in number.
Of course, anything that had specific personal information had already been erased by Ye Zhen in advance.
This was all sorts of things Ye Zhen couldn’t use, accumulated from the storage rings he’d picked up off the dead over the past year or two. People’s cultivation techniques are different, so the pills and Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures they carry for cultivation vary as well.
Of course, truly rare and valuable treasures Ye Zhen wouldn’t bring out; instead, he brought out mostly large amounts of less scarce spiritual medicines, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and so on.
"This.... Master Mu sure has an abundance of treasures on him!" Deacon Ding laughed awkwardly at Ye Zhen, "Please wait a moment, Master Mu, our Tower’s appraisal master will be here shortly."
