Unexpectedly, the Sky Thunder Rat excitedly dashed out after burrowing into the ground for a moment.

The Sky Thunder Rat’s eyes shone brightly and it exclaimed, “We’re rich, we’re rich! I found a place down there. I’m not sure if it’s a cave dwelling, secret chamber, or storage room.”

The puppet clone was intrigued upon hearing this. He quickly used an escape technique and followed the Sky Thunder Rat down.

A moment later.

A Formation barrier appeared before the puppet clone and the Sky Thunder Rat. The aura of the barrier was clearly of a fourth-tier Formation, it still functioned all these years later, drawing on the natural spiritual energy flowing from the fourth-tier Spirit Vein at this location.

Observing the Formation barrier, it looked more like a cave dwelling or a secret chamber.

“You go back to the Beast Taming pouch first,” The puppet clone told the Sky Thunder Rat.

Hearing this, the Sky Thunder Rat understood that the puppet clone was about to use its space manipulation powers to break in. It nodded and replied, “Understood, understood.”

Once the Sky Thunder Rat retreated into the Beast Taming pouch by itself.

The puppet clone stared at the Formation barrier in front of him, took a deep breath, and his aura exploded out. In an instant, the space around him wildly undulated. With a single step forward, he gradually disappeared into the multi-dimensional space ahead, becoming more and more indistinct. When the space ripples finally calmed, the puppet clone’s figure had completely vanished.

“Phew!”

In a pitch-black space, the puppet clone abruptly appeared, stirring up a gust of fierce wind.

His power had been depleted by more than 80% again.

The puppet clone’s cold eyes sparkled, quickly becoming accustomed to the darkness inside this new environment. Glancing around, this seemed to be a small closed-off cave dwelling.

The place where he had appeared was a small hall, fitted with a stone table for meetings.

On the left and right sides, there were several stone carved rooms.

The puppet clone waved his hand and released the Sky Thunder Rat to lead him in searching through the stone rooms.

In the first stone room, shelves after bookshelves were arranged.

The Sky Thunder Rat checked the room then prudently reported, “No traps found, but aside from piles of ancient books, I don’t think there’s anything valuable.”

Ancient books! The puppet clone’s eyes lit up and he accompanied the Sky Thunder Rat into the room, pulling out an antique book from a shelf to read.

‘Discussions Between True Monarch Xiyue and True Monarch Hailong’.

“Transcripts of discussions between two nascent soul True Monarchs?” exclaimed the puppet clone in surprise. The value of such a book was extraordinary.

After flipping through it for a moment, the puppet clone frowned slightly, thinking, and ultimately closed the book.

That’s because he did not understand the True Monarchs’ discussions about Daoism.

However, the introduction about True Monarch Xiyue and True Monarch Hailong was quite comprehensive. Both were Nascent Soul True Monarchs who had practiced the Water Spirit Root path in the ancient era. One of them came from Luoyue Union, while the other was a Loose Cultivator True Monarch.

But that Loose Cultivator True Monarch possessed a fourth-tier magical beast on the verge of transforming into Flood Dragon, and was quite powerful.

After returning the book, the puppet clone picked up the next one.

‘Secret Teachings of Heaven Immortal Mansion’.

Just the title of the book caught the puppet clone’s attention.

Heaven Immortal Mansion? Was this regarding Heaven Immortal Mansion, from where that innate five elements body Daozi came?

He immediately began flipping through the pages of this book.

After a long while, the puppet clone closed the book thoughtfully, “So, it turns out the Luoyue Lake in the ancient era was part of the territory of the Heaven Immortal Mansion. The ancestor of the Luoyue Union was a disciple from the Heaven Immortal Mansion and had numerous ties with it.”

No wonder there were so many immortal arts techniques inherited from the Heaven Immortal Mansion.

This book mainly tells the secret stories between the Luoyue Union’s ancestor and the Heaven Immortal Mansion.

Afterward, the puppet clone scanned through several more books. The more he read, the more excited he became. Many of these books recorded ancient secrets or were related to cultivating and imparting Dao.

Although some were indecipherable due to their profound content, there were portions that he could comprehend.

“These ancient books will be very useful for enhancing the power of the Five Elements Method.” The puppet clone waved his hand, storing all the thousands of ancient books in this room into his Shuiyan ring.

Then, he and the Sky Thunder Rat arrived at the second room.

As soon as they pushed the stone door open, a jade bed, emanating a dense aura of natural spiritual energy, appeared before their eyes, and there was the remains of a skeletal figure in a seated position on the bed.

From the state of the skeleton, it seemed the person had suffered some deadly affliction in life. The robes surrounding the skeleton were broken and worn. Through the gaps in the robe, one could see the skeleton’s ribs were all shattered, indicating severe injuries.

The Sky Thunder Rat, however, was only interested in the jade bed. The moment it saw the jade bed, it started drooling, its eyes glowing, and it excitedly exclaimed, “Fourth-tier, a fourth-tier Spirit Jade bed!”

It was about to throw itself onto the jade bed and give it a big, passionate kiss when the puppet clone took ahold of it and said, “Stop making trouble.”

The Sky Thunder Rat came to its senses and realized the puppet   the one who held power over its life and death was still present.

Instantly, it put on a long face. This was a fourth-tier Spirit Jade bed, after all. How comfortable would it be to lie down on it, even just once!

Having put the Sky Thunder Rat to the side, the puppet clone slowly approached and first bowed respectfully towards the skeletal figure on the Spirit Jade bed, “Please forgive me, senior. I swear that once I leave this place, I will make a proper gravesite for you.”

After paying his respect, he took off the broken robe. Originally, the puppet clone intended to discard it, but the Sky Thunder Rat sheepishly asked, “Respected Master, since this piece of clothing is so worn out, could you maybe give it to me?”
