Chapter 660: Lots of Treasures!
At the center of the secret realm stood a seven-story pagoda. Its body glowed with flowing light and emitted dazzling mystical radiance. Even from a distance, it was enough to captivate one’s mind and make one’s breathing unconsciously grow heavy.
"That is the treasury of the Heaven-Execution Sword Sect."
A fervent light flashed in Li Yun’s eyes.
He took the lead and walked forward. Just as he was about to enter the seven-story pagoda, a transparent barrier suddenly appeared and blocked his path.
As if he had already expected this, he took out the sword token. The transparent barrier automatically dissipated, and then he directly entered the first floor of the pagoda.
Viewed from the outside, the pagoda was not large, but its interior was a world of its own. Just the first floor alone covered thousands of acres of land.
From front to back, there were five chambers, respectively labeled Spirit Stones, Spiritual Materials, Medicinal Pills, Spiritual Artifacts, and Classics. Clearly, they corresponded to different types of treasures.
Following the order, Li Yun pushed open the first chamber representing Spirit Stones.
Instantly, brilliant light shone forth, so intense that it almost blinded him.
The vast chamber was piled high with spirit stones. Every single one was a top-grade spirit stone. A rough count placed their number at no less than one million.
And atop this pile of top-grade spirit stones were a full one hundred dazzling and transparent gemstones.
They were precisely Source Stones, one grade higher than top-grade spirit stones.
One hundred Source Stones were equivalent to one million top-grade spirit stones, which was exactly one hundred million high-grade spirit stones.
With so many Source Stones, even if Li Yun let the sword immortal puppet exert combat power at the 9th level of Heavenly Core Realm, it could still be sustained for three breaths.
If Li Yun had possessed this many Source Stones earlier, he would not have needed Peak Lord Shen Ming to intervene. He could have used the sword immortal puppet to forcefully shatter the Crimson-Robed Holy Envoy’s Shadow Domain and kill him with a single sword strike.
Adding the mountain of top-grade spirit stones on the floor, which was estimated to be around one million in number, this amount of spirit stones was comparable to the entire net worth of a 9th level Heavenly Core Realm expert.
"So many spirit stones!"
Xuan Qingdao and the others were almost dazed.
In Myriad Spirit Prefecture, even high-grade spirit stones were hard to come by, let alone this many top-grade spirit stones. On top of that, there were also a full hundred Source Stones.
To them, top-grade spirit stones were already extremely precious, while Source Stones were almost things of legend. They had only heard of them before and had never actually seen one with their own eyes.
For a moment, the eyes of many Martial Ascension Gate elders burned with heat as they looked at Li Yun with envy.
To suddenly obtain so many top-grade spirit stones and Source Stones, they could not help being envious. However, while they were envious, they felt no jealousy.
After all, even their lives had been saved by Li Yun. It was only natural for Li Yun to take these spirit stones.
"Why are all of you looking at me like that, Elders?"
Feeling the gazes of the many elders, Li Yun could not help smiling slightly. "Although I opened this treasury, the items inside are not meant for me alone, but for all of Martial Ascension Gate. These spirit stones and Source Stones are naturally the same. Every elder has a share."
"This..."
Hearing this, the elders’ faces immediately showed looks of surprise and joy.
After a long while, Peak Lord Shen Ming spoke. "Li Yun, what you say is true, but you are now the strongest person in Martial Ascension Gate. Your strength is closely tied to the fate of Martial Ascension Gate. How about this? These top-grade spirit stones will be left to the sect, and as for those Source Stones, since we cannot use them anyway, they will all be given to you."
"That should be so."
"Indeed, I agree as well."
Hearing this, the other elders nodded one after another.
Although one hundred Source Stones accounted for half the value of these spirit stones, they had no use for Source Stones. Being able to obtain one million top-grade spirit stones was already enough to satisfy them.
"Very well."
Li Yun nodded.
Because of the sword immortal puppet, his demand for Source Stones was indeed quite high. At this time, there was no need for false pleasantries.
"Since that is the case, let us go look at the treasures in the other secret rooms."
Li Yun waved his hand, put away the hundred Source Stones, and then walked toward the second secret room.
The second secret room was used for storing medicinal pills.
Upon opening it, an extremely dense medicinal fragrance wafted out. Just one breath made one feel light and airy, as if they were about to transcend into immortality.
"My god!"
With just one look, the Martial Ascension Gate elders were dumbfounded, hardly able to believe their eyes.
Although this pill room was not large and was far smaller than the room storing spirit stones, a single glance revealed at least a thousand bottles of medicinal pills. Every single type of pill was extremely precious.
For instance, the Life Creation Pills, which could produce Earthly Core Realm experts, were actually lined up row after row here. A rough count showed at least dozens of bottles.
In those dozens of bottles, each contained three Life Creation Pills.
In other words, these pills alone could create over a hundred Earthly Core Realm experts.
Not only that, but there were actually nine whole bottles of Great Heaven Creation Pills here.
One had to know that the Great Heaven Creation Pill was one grade higher than the Life Creation Pill. While the Life Creation Pill could create Earthly Core Realm cultivators, the Great Heaven Creation Pill could directly create Heavenly Core Realm experts.
Although cultivators who broke through by consuming Great Heaven Creation Pills would basically stop at the Heavenly Core Realm, and their realm would only be around the 1st or 2nd level of Heavenly Core Realm, they would still be Heavenly Core Realm experts nonetheless.
