Stepping into the palace, Jiang Chengxuan and his companions were immediately greeted by an astonishing sight.

They immediately saw treasures placed around the palace.

Crimson Dragon Crystals, Lightning Tribulation Divine Wood, Nine Suns Soul,

Void Soil, Millennium Cold Iron…

And so on and so forth.

Moreover, amidst these treasures, several powerful Spiritual Treasures were suspended within glowing shields.

With just one glance, Jiang Chengxuan and the others could recognize that among these Spiritual Treasures, no less than ten were of top grade quality, and astonishingly, two of them reached supreme-grade.

Such a trove of treasures, even for mighty cultivators like Divine Lord

Frostblade and Yue Chanjuan, who were at the Seethrough stage, caused a slight hitch in their breaths.

The bounty before them was beyond anyone’s wildest expectations.

However, they quickly regained their composure.

Divine Lord Frostblade said, “Junior Brother Jiang, Junior Sister Shen, Senior

Sister Yue.

Let’s distribute everything according to our initial agreement and individual contributions. What do you say?”

“I have no problem with that.”

Yue Chanjuan was the first to nod in agreement.

Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan also nodded.

This was the importance of a reliable team.

When faced with immense gains, they still remembered their initial promises, not blinded by the prospects of immediate benefits. Only such a team could stand the test of time.

Though bound by the oath of the Heavenly Dao before their journey, oaths could constrain actions but not the heart.

Once the heart changes, anything could happen in the future.

Soon, the four of them began to scour the palace for its treasures.

The supreme-grade Spiritual Treasures were their first target, distributed according to the prior agreement and contributions.

Jiang Chengxuan and Divine Lord Frostblade each acquired one.

As for the remaining Spiritual Treasures and precious materials, distribution was strictly based on contribution and prior agreements, with the only difference being that each tried to claim what they needed most.

In no time at all, the palace’s treasures were completely plundered by Jiang

Chengxuan and his team.

Yet, just as they finished, a series of footsteps suddenly echoed in their ears, causing the expressions of all four to turn grave.

They turned around.

Outside the palace, Divine Lord Soul Lock and his company, who were the first to enter the cave abode, arrived.

When they stepped into the palace, what greeted them was nothing but a plundered palace, along with Jiang Chengxuan and his three companions.

“It’s you!”

The expressions of Soul Lock Divine Lord and his followers abruptly hardened.

Quickly, he sensed the residual subtle fluctuations in the atmosphere.

This caused his brows to furrow instantly, his cold gaze unavoidably falling upon Jiang Chengxuan and his group.

“What have you found here?

Don’t tell me you saw nothing.

I could clearly feel that, just a short while ago, this place was pulsating with a burst of treasure light. Was it you who took them all?”

Boom!

However, what answered him was a terrifying divine thunderbolt, purple in color.

As soon as it appeared, it carried an extremely powerful aura of destruction, heading straight for Divine Lord Soul Lock and his group.

“Damnit!”

The faces of Divine Lord Soul Lock and his companions changed instantly.

They had not expected that before even a few words were exchanged, the other side would already strike.

Buzz!

In that instant, a dense grey fog surged around Divine Lord Soul Lock.

Countless wailing souls were within it.

A series of piercing screams instantly filled the entire palace.

The most terrifying part was, amidst these screams and wails, from the depths of the void, suddenly, pale claws reached out towards Jiang Chengxuan and his group, as well as towards the falling purple thunderbolt.

Boom, boom, boom!

In an instant, those claws reaching for the purple thunderbolt were quickly obliterated by it.

It was clear to see, in the void, countless souls screamed and howled as they were turned to ash.

But there were also some souls, seemingly still with unyielding wills, continuing to reach out towards Jiang Chengxuan and his group.

“Hmph!”

Seeing this, Yue Chanjuan’s eyes suddenly flashed with silver-white lightning.

Boom.

The falling purple thunderbolt’s power suddenly increased by thirty percent. In an instant, the entire palace seemed to be engulfed in endless purple.

In the endless layers of the void.

Those faces twisted in agony, uttering endless sounds of hatred, began to disperse in an instant.

In no time at all, they were completely gone.

Only at this moment did Yue Chanjuan’s cold voice finally come through. “What we discovered here, what we found, what does it have to do with you?

Why should we have to answer your questions?

Could it be that you want to ask us for our gains?

What are you daydreaming about?”

These words immediately made Divine Lord Soul Lock and his company turn ashen.

It was clear to see that at this moment, all of them had a fierce and ruthless light shining in their eyes.

Being demon cultivators from the Ghost Hall, they were naturally not the kind to take things lying down.

Having just been taken by surprise by Yue Chanjuan’s sudden attack and suffered a setback, and now being mocked by her, how could they not feel any anger?

However, they were also aware that Yue Chanjuan and Divine Lord Frostblade before them were not to be trifled with.

Especially since the cultivators from Thunderclap Valley practiced techniques that inherently restrained demon cultivators like themselves.

Should a real fight break out, it was uncertain if they could gain any advantage.

Immediately, Divine Lord Soul Lock said coldly,

“Very well, I hope you can keep up this arrogance in this ancient cave abode.

We shall see!”

With that, Soul Lock and his followers didn’t look back and turned to leave the palace.

Watching their departing figures, Jiang Chengxuan and the others narrowed their eyes.

Shen Ruyan then said, “Senior Sister Yue, Senior Sister Frostblade, I don’t think Soul Lock and his bunch will let this go so easily.

If there’s a chance in the future, they will surely target us.

Yue Chanjuan and Divine Lord Frostblade both nodded.

“Indeed, putting aside what happened today, just our relationships and affiliations alone mean that they will not miss any opportunity to target us in the future.

For now, it’s just that their resentment towards us has deepened a bit more.

Let’s not worry about it.”

As they spoke, the group had already left the palace.

Outside, Shen Ruyan, Divine Lord Frostblade, including Yue Chanjuan, all turned their gaze towards Jiang Chengxuan.

Divine Lord Frostblade smiled and said, “Junior Brother Jiang, in your opinion, which direction should we head towards next for the best course?
