Chapter 166: Chapter 165: Can't Drain the Pond to Get All the Fish

Tang San did not go to scrutinize the treasures within the vault, instead, he first located the Main Control Array.The Main Control Array of the Academy's store was situated at the innermost part of the vault, within a sealed metal chamber.

This metal chamber had no windows, and its door was shut tight. However, there was no longer an Alarm Formation to interfere here.

Tang San did not need to enter the small chamber that housed the Main Control Array. He placed one hand against the metal wall, silently perceiving the energy fluctuations inside, and with his powerful Spiritual Power, he memorably catalogued every trace of energy variation.

One must understand that when Tang San was a Godking, he was the Supreme God of the Divine Realm, overseeing the entire Divine Realm. The highest governing body within the Divine Realm was the Council of the Divine Realm, which controlled the Spiritual center. This center was once capable of radiating across multiple planets. It was also a type of energy array, existing on a level incomparably higher than that of this world.

Although Tang San was no longer a Godking and could not utilize his divine consciousness, his experience remained. To him, the magic array, which seemed highly complex to the Monsters, was as simple as child's play.

A faint smile gradually appeared on Tang San's face. The arrays in Jiali Academy really did lead to the same destination by different paths!

After observing for several days, especially after the evolution of the Spirit Rhinoceros Eye to the Fourth Stage, he had basically understood the core concept behind the construction of the arrays here. By comparing the overall Academy Alarm Array that surrounded the area, it was clear that the alarm arrays here were identical, confirming they were crafted by the same hand.

It now became simple for him; Tang San had sorted out the characteristics of these arrays in his mind. After reconstructing the prototype of the arrays mentally, he now had complete control over everything.

The smile on his face grew more intense; finally, his plan could begin to unfold smoothly.

He did not take anything from this treasury. Inside the vault were rows of display cabinets, on which various items were laid out and preserved in different ways—some sealed, others simply on display.

The vault was divided into many sections; the current vault, which housed the core magic array, contained weapons crafted from rare metals and protective gear.

In Tang San's eyes, the craftsmanship was... truly crude! Yes, far too coarse. And yet, he couldn't deny the exceptional quality of the materials. He hadn't seen such fine materials even in Soul Land. It was only after becoming a Godking and overlooking the other planets he controlled from the Divine Realm that he had encountered materials of a similar caliber.

With these metals, if he were to do the forging, creating divine tools wouldn't be impossible at all.

But Tang San did not make a move. Indeed, he did not touch any item there.

Without a doubt, with his current understanding of the Academy store's defensive arrays, he could have completely emptied the place without any problem.

He didn't need to look to guess that one of the vaults would inevitably contain storage equipment; taking away everything here was not an issue at all.

However, if he were to do so, Jiali Academy would undoubtedly be engulfed in turmoil. To avoid exposure, he would have to flee quickly. But if he could leave, what would happen to the Academy Town? The first to be suspected would definitely be the Human vassals, followed by a thorough purge and search—what would become of Redemption Academy?

These were all issues he needed to consider. Moreover, since he could now take anything from here at any time, there was no need to rush. He could think of it as temporarily stored here. When necessary, he could always take all the resources with him. Of course, that would have to be under the condition that there were absolutely no worries behind. At the very least, the safety of Redemption Academy had to be insured. The Academy Town might not turn up anything in a search, but if Redemption Academy were investigated, the trouble would be immense.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Tang San had never planned to strip this place bare. Instead, his goal was to ensure he could enter at any time. Everything else could come later.

Stepping out of this vault, Tang San promptly chose the third vault and used the same method to open its grand doors. Mastering the core magic array made opening the vaults incredibly easy—even quicker than using a key.

As the metal door opened, an intense wave of Origin Energy instantly swept over him. Tang San could distinctly feel his body heating up slightly due to the richness of the Origin Energy.

Inside the rows of display cabinets, most of the treasures were preserved in sealed containers, and what was stored in this third vault were various spiritual medicines—yes, spiritual medicines.

The Origin Energy that these spiritual medicines emitted was so rich that the air inside the vault felt almost sticky.

Of course, due to the wide variety, the energies appeared somewhat mixed. Keep in mind, this was while they were all sealed in containers.

Just by quietly sensing, Tang San could clearly perceive that there were no less than hundreds of types of spiritual medicines here, and each one's effect surpassed the Dragon Tendon Fruit he had consumed before.

Dragon Tendon Fruits, the likes of which could only be found outside in the display cases, were not even qualified to enter the vault.

So wealthy, truly too wealthy! No wonder the Monsters' cultivation improved so fast. So many spiritual medicines from Origin Energy were treasures, which, if used properly, could greatly assist in cultivation.

Although Tang San was somewhat skeptical about whether the Monsters could fully utilize the effects of these spiritual medicines, even if they swallowed them whole, the effects were definitely very impressive!

They really were marvelous items! Cultivating in such a place was truly a heavenly treasure land.

Taking a deep breath, Tang San activated his Mysterious Heaven Method, filtering the rich Origin Energy he inhaled before integrating it into his Mysterious Heaven Skill. Just this one deep breath made him feel his blood pulsing excitedly.

Wow, this truly is impressive.

Without rushing to act, Tang San first took his time to carefully observe the surroundings and then had a pretty good idea in his mind.

Although the plants in this world were different from those in Soul Land where he once lived, the properties of energy never lied. With Tang San's past life experience as the ruler of plants, identifying them was naturally a piece of cake.

According to Tang San's analysis, the difference between plants and Spirit Monsters was similar to that between Demon Beasts and Monsters.

Both were living beings, but a plant that hadn't cultivated wisdom, no matter how strong its energy, could only be considered a natural treasure and not a Spirit Monster.

However, whether they were natural treasures or Spirit Monsters, they ultimately shared the same origin. The first target in Tang San's plan were these high-level plants in the vault.

If judged by the experience with Demon Beasts, these natural treasures also had different levels, with the highest tier roughly equivalent to the Ninth Stage, which meant they were treasures of the highest order. Once reaching Divine Rank, it was inevitable for them to develop wisdom. Hence, there were no Divine Rank natural treasures; those were Spirit Monsters.

Tang San walked up to the first display cabinet, coming before a cover that looked like glass. Underneath the cover, a purple-black vine was coiled. Sёarᴄh the NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Spiked all over, the vine emitted a glimmering cold light, clearly not something to be trifled with.

Tang San had attended classes on natural treasures back at Redemption Academy, where they taught this subject. However, the curriculum wasn't comprehensive. So, he was unfamiliar with these Thorns Vines, but just from its appearance, he could guess its function. With his Spirit Rhinoceros Eye, he was able to discern its level.
