Chapter 787: Chapter 261: “The Crime is in This Era, The Merit Lasts a Thousand Autumns!”_2

“…”

Chen Qiu had a complex expression as he looked towards the chamber in front of him. He had never imagined that there would be such a place beneath the small world, nor that it would contain so many pills. If it had not been for Xiong Gao discovering this place, he might never have known of it.

By now, the chamber was completely empty, thoroughly ransacked by Little Wolf.

Just as he was about to leave the chamber, something suddenly occurred to him.

He walked directly back to the wall that was engraved with several rows of characters and forcefully pressed the first character, “Sect.”

The next moment—

A rumbling sound came from another wall on the Green Stone Square, followed by the slow emergence of another chamber filled with Spirit Stones.

A dense mass of Spirit Stones.

All Spirit Stones, and protective measures had been implemented within the chamber to prevent the leakage of Spiritual Energy. This served dual purposes: it prevented discovery by outsiders and allowed the Spirit Stones to be preserved longer.

A hint of shock slowly flickered in Chen Qiu’s eyes.

His Divine Sense swept over it, and there were altogether 500,000 Mid-grade Spirit Stones. To him, this was somewhat acceptable since he had seen greater things—500,000 Spirit Stones was not a large number.

Th𝙞𝘴 𝓬hⱥp𝕥𝙚r 𝒾𝖘 p𝘰𝓈𝗍𝑒𝙙 bʏ 𝖪ı𝓉𝙚𝖓𝘰𝙫𝑒𝗹

But the issue was!

He had now surpassed the height of the former Chao Tian Sect; he had become the strongest in the Second Grade Continent and was about to set off for the Third Grade Continent, while the former Chao Tian Sect merely dominated over the First Grade Continent.

Furthermore, they did not have an overwhelming level of control and were eventually defeated by several top forces from Zhongzhou joining hands.

That was the First Grade Continent.

Where nature’s spiritual energy is not very dense, the land itself produces very few Spirit Stones. Gathering 500,000 Spirit Stones is truly no small number. When he left the Xuantian Continent, though he had scoured many top forces, he had not collected many Spirit Stones.

“Master… Master.”

Standing behind him, also somewhat shocked, Xiong Gao trembled, “Why didn’t the person storing these Spirit Stones keep them in a Storage Ring instead? That way, they could be preserved even longer, and the Spiritual Energy wouldn’t leak out.”

“Not sure.”

Chen Qiu shook his head; he too had this doubt and wanted to know why.

In the third layer of passageways beneath the Boundless Icefield on the Green Stone Square, although there were these characters on the wall, pressing the character for “Crime” triggered something, while pressing other characters yielded no response.

He had only tried it on a whim just now and had not expected it to actually work.

…

After taking a deep breath, Chen Qiu did not immediately gather all these Spirit Stones into his Storage Ring but walked back to the wall and pressed the second character, “Door.”

On the vast Green Stone Square, another chamber slowly emerged from the wall.

The chamber also contained 500,000 Spirit Stones.

The third character, another chamber appeared, 500,000 Spirit Stones!

The fourth character, another chamber appeared, hundreds of jars filled with pills, exactly the same as the ones Little Wolf had eaten.

The fifth character, another chamber appeared, 500,000 Spirit Stones!

The sixth character, another chamber appeared, hundreds of Divinity Transformation Grade Spiritual Treasures!

The seventh character, another chamber appeared, hundreds of Divinity Transformation Grade Array Plates!

The eighth character, another chamber appeared, hundreds of Divinity Transformation Grade talismans!

The ninth character, another chamber appeared, 500,000 Spirit Stones!

The tenth character…

With every press of a character, a chamber emerged without fail, each filled with heaven-sent treasures or Spirit Stones. This wealth hidden deep beneath the small world, had he found it while still in the Da Xia Country, “rich enough to rival nations” would not just be an exaggeration.

He could have bought thousands of Da Xia Countries!

This was no joke.

Merely a single Divinity Transformation Grade Spiritual Treasure could buy the entirety of Da Xia Country since that place didn’t even produce Nascent Souls and lacked anything truly exceptional—it was merely populated with many mortals.

In the Cultivation World, those at the Qi Refining Cultivation level are commonly referred to as mortals, sometimes even those at Foundation Establishment are not regarded as significant; only those who reach Golden Core garner some respect.

Here, whether talismans, Array Plates, or pills, the highest grade is Divinity Transformation top grade, and so far, none at the Void Refining level have been seen.

This was consistent with the situation of the former Chao Tian Sect. According to records of the former Chao Tian Sect, their limit of access was all these items; anything of a higher grade must be sought in higher-grade continents, which are impossible to find here.

However…

He roughly estimated that there were about ten million Spirit Stones here, 11 million to be precise, neither more nor less. Such an amount of Spirit Stones, let alone on the First Grade Continent, even in the Second Grade or Third Grade Continent, is an astoundingly large number!

The former Chao Tian Sect, just a local tyrant of the First Grade Continent, how did they manage to store so many Spirit Stones?

Especially when the sect had been scattered?

He vaguely felt that the former Chao Tian Sect might have been more complex than he had imagined. At this moment, he pressed the last character on the wall, an ellipsis, which was the final character.

These three dots were connected, and the handwriting became sloppier towards the end, almost identical to that on the Green Stone Square beneath the Boundless Icefield as if cast from the same mold.

And when this character was pressed,

The interior of the entire Green Stone Square wall suddenly emitted a deafening rumbling noise, followed by the sudden splitting of the entire Green Stone Square in two, as if a slumbering monster slowly opened its massive maw.
