Chapter 244: Don’t Forget Your Original Intention

Of the four major powers controlling Yunmeng City, only the Feng family’s main base was located within the city. Moreover, it was situated in the most central location of the lower city district. They occupied a vast area of land here.

At this time, Su Jingzhen and the others, led by Feng Lie, had already arrived at the Feng family’s estate.

The influential figures of Yunmeng City’s major powers had also followed them here.

Even though some powers knew they didn’t have much competitive strength, they couldn’t just stand by and watch the Feng family use any means necessary.

The Feng family’s estate was the most luxurious Su Jingzhen had ever seen in his life.

The glazed tiles, carved beams, and painted pillars all screamed of one thing: grandeur!

Su Jingzhen and Xuening had just arrived and were already looking around in awe, like country bumpkins entering the city.

Under Feng Lie’s guidance, they quickly arrived at the Feng family’s treasure repository.

The treasure repository had seven floors, which was entirely black, and was made of unknown materials.

It stood tall in the center of a emerald-green lake. Seaʀch* The Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

To reach it, one had to fly.

Even in the Feng family, Foundation Establishment cultivators and below didn’t have the qualifications to enter the treasure repository.

Many cultivators who followed them gazed at the treasure repository built on the water, their eyes burning with desire.

The good things inside were probably the best in Yunmeng City. However, here, no one dared to harbor any covetous thoughts.

Feng Lie’s sword flew in mid-air as he turned back to look at Su Jingzhen and the others.

“We’ve arrived. Four friends, please follow me!”

Without any hesitation, Feng Lie flew his sword towards the treasure repository.

Behind him, Ye Zhiqiu and Bai Xiu took out their own spiritual artifacts and followed.

Xuening was still riding the long sword from before, carrying Su Jingzhen along.

As for the others who weren’t from the Feng family, they wisely stood by the lake and didn’t choose to get close.

“Brother Mu, what do you think about this?”

At this time, by the lake, Spirit Sound Valley’s Sikong Tingyun looked at Mu Lao and smiled. Feng Qingya wasn’t by their side at the moment.

Mu Lao chuckled, “With so many family clans and sects serving as a backing for Master Su and Miss Xuening, the Feng family wouldn’t dare to act recklessly and offend the entire world.”

Sikong Tingyun shook his head: “I didn’t mean that.

With your cultivation, Brother Mu, you’re not valued in the Feng family, which is indeed a waste of your talent.

And that girl, Qingya, has also been mistreated in the Feng family.

The cultivation world is vast, and Qingzhou is vast too. It’s not just limited to the Feng family or the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

We cultivators ultimately only seek to break through our own limitations and reach a state of enlightenment.

Does it really matter where we cultivate?”

As soon as he said this, Mu Lao immediately understood Sikong Tingyun’s intention.

He smiled again: “That’s up to the young lady’s decision.

My life was given to me by her father, and when I decided to become her protector, my fate was sealed.

I will unconditionally obey any decision the young lady makes.

So, what you said, Sikong Tingyun, has no effect on me.”

Mu Lao was indeed direct.

Sikong Tingyun nodded, not saying anything more.

But in his heart, he was even more concerned about this matter.

If successful, not only would they gain three young people with boundless potential, but also a Nascent Soul-stage warrior.

…

As they approached the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, the large gate looked even more ancient.

As if it had weathered the passage of time.

There were no guards at the entrance.

Feng Lie glanced at the gate, then took out a token from his storage ring.

He infused it with spiritual energy, and the token emitted a faint blue light that shot out.

The light reflected off the gate of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.

Su Jingzhen saw that the ancient gate had complex symbols flashing on it, and then it suddenly swung open with a loud creak.

“Four friends, please enter!”

Feng Lie made an inviting gesture to the four of them.

Bai Xiu and Ye Zhiqiu didn’t hesitate and directly entered the Treasure Gathering Pavilion of the Feng family.

However, Xuening seemed a bit hesitant at this time.

“Brother Su, you go ahead, I’ll wait here for you. I don’t need anything for now.”

They were two people, but only counted as one group.

According to the rules, they could only choose one medicinal material.

But when Feng Lie heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

“Miss Xuening, you can come in too. Since you’re the first place winners, you’ll get a special reward. You two can each choose one!”

When Xuening heard this, a flash of delight appeared in her eyes.

Without hesitation, she followed Bai Xiu and the others, stepping into the pavilion.

As soon as they stepped through the gate, Su Jingzhen felt as if he had experienced a time-space shift.

A thick, ancient aura suddenly enveloped him.

The spiritual energy here was extremely dense.

Countless light clusters floated in the void, each containing a treasure.

Moreover, they detected a strong medicinal fragrance in the air.

Before they could ask, Feng Lie explained, “This is the third layer of the Feng family’s Treasure Gathering Pavilion. Everything stored here is various types of spiritual medicines.

We have collected medicinal materials from all over Qingzhou, and even from farther regions.

All of them are over a hundred years old.

I can give you an hour to choose. If you can find a medicinal material that satisfies you within an hour, you can take it directly.

If you can’t find one within an hour, you can tell me what you’re looking for, and I’ll help you find it.

Of course, it’s only if we have it here.”

As soon as they entered, they found themselves in the third layer of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. It seemed that the small-scale teleportation array or spatial transformation restriction was extremely intricate.

The Feng family naturally didn’t want them to see the treasures in other layers.

And perhaps ordinary people who entered this pavilion wouldn’t be able to reach the area where the treasures were stored.

The four of them looked at each other, their eyes shining with excitement once again.

The countless light clusters floating in the void should all be small-scale protective arrays.

But the medicinal fragrance emanating from under the protection of the arrays was so intense, indicating that these spiritual medicines were extraordinary.

For an alchemist, the two most attractive things were medicinal materials and alchemy recipes.

Su Jingzhen’s heart suddenly stirred.

He thought to himself, ‘This old man is indeed quite cunning.’

But he didn’t rush to approach the light clusters.

Instead, he looked directly at Feng Lie and said, “Elder, I don’t want to go and choose. Can I directly tell you what I want?”

Feng Lie raised an eyebrow. “There are so many medicinal materials over there, and you might find something you like. Maybe you’ll even find something more precious than you know.”

Su Jingzhen smiled. “Just because something is valuable doesn’t mean it’s what I want.

As you said, there are many things over there that I don’t know about, but to me, those unknown things are just useless.”

Su Jingzhen spoke very calmly, which made Feng Lie slightly surprised.

Xuening, who was about to go and choose a medicinal material, suddenly stopped in her tracks.

She looked at Su Jingzhen with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

【Remaining usable points: 133】

Su Jingzhen’s words were reasonable, so Xuening decided not to waste her time either.

Ye Zhiqiu also stopped in her tracks, and Bai Xiu nodded in agreement.

Feng Lie frowned again, but he wouldn’t interfere with the four of them.

Instead, he curiously looked at Su Jingzhen. “Since that’s the case, what medicinal material do you want, Friend Su?”

Su Jingzhen didn’t forget his original intention. “The blood of the North Sea Dragon!”

The blood of a spiritual beast, although a sacred object for cultivation, could also be used as a medicinal material.

So, his request shouldn’t be against the rules.
