As soon as they came out of the water, a burst of white steam rose from Qian Chao and Li Jian's bodies, and they each used their spiritual energy to evaporate the water on their robes.
Qian Chao said eagerly to his three companions: "Yes, it really is!"
The excitement on his face at this time was not all because he could find a relic, but more importantly, it verified his previous guesses about the distribution and changes of spiritual veins in the Wuling Sect. How could this not make him He is excited!
Yanxuan said in surprise: "It really does exist!"
Li Jian also smiled and said: "Indeed, there is. The water is at least thirty feet deep. Brother Qian and I found a building that is not under the water. Well, it is not a small piece. Because it is underwater, it is preserved It's still in good condition. Brother Qian has found the formation. It is estimated that if you open the formation, you can gain something. Oh, by the way, Brother Lu, there are big fish underwater, as big as the boat. When Brother Qian and I saw it, they actually Just ran away..."
"Hehe, okay, hey, what are we waiting for? Let's go down together, get the treasure there, and then catch two big fish and find a place to roast them!"
"Brother Lu, wait a minute, I still need to make some preparations," Qian Chao said. "I estimate that there should be no water in the treasure house sealed by the formation. But if the formation is opened and water pours in, ordinary water will flow in." I'm not afraid of soaking the things in water, but I'm afraid that if there are books or anything in them, they will be destroyed by the water. Girl Tang, is there anything you can do?"
Tang Ping knew that Qian Chao valued the books or maps obtained from the ruins the most, so he nodded and said: "There is a way, but the water of more than thirty feet is a bit deep. I'm afraid my spell won't last long."
"It would be great if there is a way. Let's do the same as last time. As soon as we open it, we can go in and empty it out. It won't take long." Lu Pingchuan said.
"Then the rest will be easy to deal with," Qian Chao said. "The underwater ruins are the same as the first ruins we opened. The spiritual energy below is thin, so I need to make some preparations."
The so-called preparation is to use formations and spiritual stones to make the spiritual weapons in the treasure house richer, as if they are near the spiritual veins. Although the time is short, it is enough to open the treasure house and take out the contents.
Qian Chao returned to the shore, took out the bookcase, and quickly drew a few talismans, and then several people returned to the sky above the water.
Tang Ping said: "This time when we go down, I will cast a spell to avoid the water. Don't spread too thin."
Several people followed the instructions and got closer, and then followed Tang Ping into the water.
A large transparent ball appeared around Tang Ping's body, which seemed to drain away the water on all sides. Several people fell down in the ball. Qian Chao guided the direction, and after the water was deep, he took out several glowing talismans. Paper illuminated.
The surrounding water gradually darkened as the depth increased, but the light of the talisman in the large waterless ball attracted many swimming fish to come closer, and there were also a few small fish. He put his mouth into the water and stuck it in, but soon realized something was wrong and swam away with his fin tail swung. Gradually, a few people were able to distinguish the outline of the building from the blurry water below. They realized that it was indeed a large manor. There was also a hill under the water. The manor was built according to the hill, but the water was deep. Thirty feet, going down the hill, it gets darker and darker, until it is pitch black, and I don't know how deep the lake is.
"It's right there." Qian Chao pointed with his hand. It seemed to be behind the manor. On a stone wall facing the hill, there was a small pavilion that was soaked and slightly tilted. The magic circle was in that pavilion.
After the five people passed by, the water was drained away, and the small pavilion was about to fall down without the water. Qian Chao hurriedly used the magic of controlling objects to move it away.
"The formation is right here. If I guess correctly, the entrance should be on this mountain wall in a moment. After opening it, Girl Tang will stay outside and cannot let water in. Brother Lu, Sister Yan, let's go in immediately and get the Put everything you move into storage bags. Also, my formation will increase the spiritual energy here in a while, and something will probably be attracted to it. Although there is nothing powerful here, Brother Li, it is still up to you. Come on guard, wait until we come out, and we'll leave right away."
"Okay, let's do it."
Although the water was drained away by Tang Ping's spell, the ground was still a little damp, but it didn't matter. Qian Chao first quickly arranged several talismans around the formation in the pavilion. Each talisman also had its own A piece of spiritual stone first triggered his own formation, and then Qian Chao began to break the original formation in the pavilion.
The aura suddenly became richer, and Li Jian immediately concentrated on his defenses. Being underwater, who knows what might be attracted to this aura, so he had to be vigilant.
When Qian Chao cracked the formation, Yanxuan was a little worried under the water. She looked up and saw that the water above her head could not be seen clearly, and she could see some blurry lights and shadows.
Lu Pingchuan looked around, hoping to find one or two big fish in the water.
"Boy Qian, you have to hurry up, I can't last long like this." Tang Ping said.
"It'll be ready soon!"
Soon, there was a slight movement on the ground in the pavilion, and then there was a vibration on the stone wall of the hill, and a dark door opened from the stone wall. Fortunately, this door is within the range of Tang Ping's spell, and no water can enter. Moreover, the inside of this door has been well protected by the formation. Although it is dark inside, at least it is not soaked in water.
"Let's go." Qian Chao said, and immediately several more talisman papers with yellow light appeared. Lu Pingchuan had strode in, Qian Chao was behind him, and Yan Xuan also walked in.
…
It was almost useless for Qian Chao and Yan Xuan to take action. After Lu Pingchuan entered, he was like a whirlwind. He took things whenever he saw them. His hands and feet were as agile as those of thieves who had been thieves for many years. Fortunately, the secret room was not very big either. He was pulled away by Lu Pingchuan's big hand. The place became empty soon after, leaving Qian Chao and Yan Xuan in a daze.
"Hey, Brother Qian, Sister Yan, let's go, don't keep them waiting!" With that, Lu Pingchuan strode out.
Yanxuan laughed and shook his head. Seeing Qian Chao looking inside again, he said: "Brother Qian, let's go, there is nothing left."
Qian Chao scanned around and used the Blue Eyes Technique to check. Sure enough, there was nothing left, so he withdrew.
"So fast!" Tang Ping was also a little surprised, "Is there not..."
"Yes, there are many, they are all at Brother Lu's place." Yanxuan said with a smile.
"It's already empty." Qian Chao came out and said.
"Then let's go up."
As soon as Qian Chao's formation withdrew, the five people went upwards. The door of the secret room was not closed. When the water poured in, several large bubbles emerged and went upwards.
When they came out of the water, the five people found that the sun had set to the west. This time they had gained a lot from the water. They wanted to see what was there, so they had to find a place to stay. First, they would spend the night, and secondly, they would have a look. What good stuff was found in the ruins?
…
As dusk falls, there is a faint firelight coming from a cave on the cliff. If you get close, you can smell the aroma of grilled fish.
In the spacious cave, Lu Pingchuan was taking care of the bonfire, as well as several large fish that were being roasted on the bonfire with a fragrant aroma. He had not seen the fish as big as the boat that Li Jian mentioned in the water. , he was not convinced and jumped back into the water to search for a while, then came out with a few big fish, saying that he wanted to grill them at night.
Lu Pingchuan handed over the storage bag that Lu Pingchuan packed in the ruins to Tang Ping. Now was the favorite time for the five of them to share the spoils. Tang Ping was taking out the items one by one to identify them.
"What's this?"
The first thing Tang Ping took out was a box with only one fluorescent bead inside. There was also a thin and delicate chain on the bead, which looked like it was meant to be hung around the neck.
"Jewelry?" Qian Chao asked when he saw it.
"Well, it looks like it's hanging around the neck, but what's the use? It's been hidden as a treasure after all, it's not an ordinary jewelry." Tang Ping said, holding the beads in her hands.
"Hey!" Tang Ping immediately said in surprise, "This thing... is really good, Brother Li..."
With that said, Tang Ping handed the bead to Li Jian.
Li Jian grabbed it in his hand. After a moment, he nodded and said, "Well, it seems to have a calming effect."
Then he handed the bead to Qian Chao. Qian Chao looked at the translucent and extremely round bead, thought for a moment and said, "This seems...wait a minute." He handed the bead to Yanxuan, and then removed it from the storage room. He dug into his bag and found a book and began to read it.
Yanxuan also felt that holding this bead in his hand could really make people calm down and keep their mind at one. When he was looking at it, he heard Qian Chao say: "I know, this thing should be a octopus eye bead."
"Oh? Octopus eye beads, what is that?"
"It's the eyes of the giant octopus. The giant octopus is a kind of strange fish in the sea. It is nearly ten feet long. It is said to be round and has many long whip-like tentacles. The book says it is very powerful and can kill people it encounters. The prey is tightly entangled and then eaten. Well, although the giant octopus has a big body, its eyes are small. The book says it is as round as an egg, as moist as jade, green in color and bitter in taste, clear and shiny, The round hole is made of nature. When you wear it, you can concentrate your mind and your mind without worrying about wild horses. When an alchemist encounters it, he will feel like he has found a treasure, ah! Sister Yan, wearing this thing on your body is good for alchemy."
"Oh!" Upon hearing this, Yanxuan was a little surprised and looked carefully at the beads in his hand.
"Hey, Sister Yan, the small hole with the chain on this bead is natural. It was originally the eye of a giant octopus. The book said that this thing was sought after by alchemists in the past. Well, the best one is the transparent one, the more The more transparent, the better. The translucent one you have in your hand is not as good, but we are lucky to have found it. Well, the beads with blood lines inside are the worst. They cannot be used and can only be ground into medicine. This It must be beneficial to wear something when you are making elixirs."
Lu Pingchuan heard a few people talking lively and couldn't help but come over to take a look at the beads in Yanxuan's hand.
"There is such a good thing!" Yanxuan was naturally happy.
"Well, that belongs to Sister Yan." Tang Ping said and took out another item from the storage bag.
This thing turned out to be a coral tree that was less than two feet long and was completely green in color. There was a wooden base underneath. Once it was taken out, the entire cave was shrouded in a misty cold light.
"What is this?" Qian Chao asked curiously. Born in a wealthy family, he had naturally seen things like coral trees, but no matter how valuable this thing was, it was just a common thing. How could it be used by the former monks? We treasure it, and this green coral tree is indeed rare.
"This is a good thing," Tang Ping's eyes lit up after taking a closer look. "Ha, I'm afraid my sixth grandfather doesn't have such a good thing!"
Seeing how proud Tang Ping was, Yanxuan asked curiously: "Isn't this coral?"
"Sister Yan, you have been to the place where I brew and store my wine. Do you remember that I put a jade stone there?"
The piece of jade bluestone that Tang Ping had was given to her by Tang Bonian. Its purpose was to speed up the aging of the newly brewed spirit wine.
"Of course you know. Isn't the jadeite used by you to make wine?"
"Yes, this coral tree has the same effect as the jadeite, but it is much better than the jadestone. Put it in the wine cellar, well, the spiritual wine will definitely be better."
Lu Pingchuan was even more happy than Tang Ping when he heard this: "Hey, that's really good stuff!"
Needless to say, this green coral tree naturally belongs to Tang Ping.
"Since there is a coral tree used for aging wine, then there should be wine, right?"
Qian Chao's words made Lu Pingchuan's eyes suddenly light up.
"Yes, yes, Miss Tang, I remember that I brought in a lot of bottles and cans. Let's see if there is any good wine!"
As expected, Tang Ping took out several jars from inside. Each of the dark jars was half a person's height. They were so heavy that they were filled with wine. There were mud seals at the mouth of the jars, and there were seals on the mud seals.
"Haha, sure enough, Sister Tang, open a jar and have a taste. It must be a good wine after so many years!"
"Brother Lu," Tang Ping was unwilling to open it, "I have brought this wine for so many years. Whether it can be drunk is one thing. And the most important thing is that if this wine is not brewed for our qi refining disciples, it is for us." Those monks who built the foundation or even formed the elixir were brewed, so if we drink it, it will not only be useless but also harmful. In my opinion, we might as well not open this wine for now, and wait until I go back to find out more about it before making any plans."
With the wine in front of him but unable to reach his mouth, Lu Pingchuan could only watch with regret as Tang Ping put the jars back into the storage bag.
"Okay, if you can drink it, I'll bring it to you first, okay?" Seeing Lu Pingchuan's face, Tang Ping said angrily.
"Hey, okay, okay!"
Then Tang Ping took out a small black jar.
"Wine?" Yanxuan asked doubtfully, and then immediately looked back, and sure enough, Lu Pingchuan came over again.
"It shouldn't be wine," Tang Ping said. "First of all, it's not sealed, and secondly, the weight is wrong. It doesn't look like wine. Open it and take a look."
After the plug at the mouth of the jar was pulled out, a fishy smell filled the air from the jar. The smell was very strong and pungent as soon as it appeared.
"What does this smell like? What's in it?" Tang Ping asked, covering her nose.
Inside the jar was something like white grease, and the fat was trembling like solidified rice milk.
Qian Chao covered the jar again. Seeing that it was not wine, Lu Pingchuan was not interested and returned to grilling the fish.
"It seems to be fish oil." Qian Chao said thoughtfully, then opened it slightly and confirmed again, "Well, it should be fish oil."
"Fish oil? Why does fish oil smell like this?"
"What is this for?"
Qian Chao said: "For lamp oil, there is a kind of spiritual weapon in our weapon refining art, which is an oil lamp. It is not difficult to refine. The difficulty lies in the lamp oil. Different lamp oils have different uses when lit. For example, It can make invisible things appear, it can make the monk's shadow under the oil lamp attack the monk himself, it can dispel some illusions, and it can also harm certain monsters..."
"My God, you still have such a thing in your weapon refining technique!" Tang Ping said in surprise.
"Well, there are a lot of these things, but lamp oil is not easy to get, and there are not many production methods in Jiuxuan. Even if you can catch the monster with the oil, it is very difficult to make lamp oil. In this jar I guess it’s fish oil, and it should be fish oil from the sea. As for its use, I don’t know. Alas, I still lack some knowledge.”
After hearing this, Tang Ping lowered her head and searched in her storage bag. Sure enough, she took out a small oil lamp, placed it in front of Qian Chao, and said, "It seems you are right, this should be a set." Bar?"
When Qian Chao saw it, he immediately took the small oil lamp in his hand and looked at it, and was a little disappointed: "There is still one thing missing, there is no wick. Although the wick is not difficult to make, this oil lamp is a magic weapon, used by foundation-building monks. Yes, but after I go back to this oil lamp, I have to study it in detail, maybe I can learn something. Although the oil lamp cannot be used, fish oil does not necessarily cannot be used. After I go back, I will try to refine an oil lamp, and it will be able to Now you know what the effects of this fish oil are.”
When he said this, Qian Chao suddenly thought of something.
"Do you still remember the time when Wen Zhang wanted to cause trouble for Luo Ying and Senior Sister Wenyuan? They also came to me and asked me to refine another spiritual weapon that can activate the formation."
"Yeah, remember."
"Senior Sister Luo Ying and the others reportedly found out that time that the treasure inside the ruins was called the Moisun Jade Fat Lamp, remember?"
"Um."
"The mozun jade lamp is similar to this one, but it is said that the lamp oil used in that lamp is the oil of a giant whale in the sea. When the oil lamp is lit, the light is gentle and the smell is similar to agarwood. The people around you are influenced by the light and smell. Next, you can completely immerse yourself in it, which is very helpful for breaking through the barriers in practice. In other words, Senior Sister Luo Ying and Senior Sister Wenyuan want the Mozun Jade Fat Lamp to break through the foundation building."
After Qian Chao said this, several people finally understood why Wen Zhang had to prevent Wenyuan from getting the jade lamp.
"This oil lamp... is so magical!"
"Hey, Mr. Qian, do you know where we can get that Mozun Jade Fat Lamp? We can use it when we make a breakthrough in the future..."
"Yes, Brother Qian, hehe, that oil lamp sounds very good! Where can I find that thing?"
Even Li Jian was quite moved after hearing about the usefulness of the Moi Yun Jade Fat Lamp, and looked at Qian Chao.
Qian Chao laughed and said: "The oil lamp is not difficult to refine. The difficulty lies in the oil of the giant whale. The giant whale is extremely difficult to capture, and it is said that the method of making that oil has been lost, so it can only be obtained from The kind of lamps left over from the past can be found in these ruins. Senior Sister Luo Ying and the others can know where those things are. I guess they spent a lot of effort to find them. We don’t need to be in such a hurry. Once we leave, There is still a long time to build the foundation. We have just refined the fourth level of Qi. Secondly, Senior Sister Luo and the others can only determine the location of the ruins through ancient books. But the fact that this ruins can be found today shows that our method of finding ruins is better than theirs. Gao Ming, if we find a few more ruins in the future, maybe we can find this thing again from which ruins."
"Hehe, what Brother Qian said makes sense. From now on, we will look for those ruins specifically!"
Tang Ping agreed with Qian Chao's statement and continued to look through the things taken out of the ruins.
"What is this?" What he took out this time was a white porcelain bottle, which was heavy. The key was that there was writing on the bottle. Tang Ping recognized it, although the writing was light and hard to read and blurred. It was clear, but she still recognized it with a frown.
"Undersea spring...undersea spiritual spring!"
After recognizing these words, Tang Ping's face was shocked at first, and then turned into a look of surprise.
"What is that?" Yanxuan asked curiously, looking at the simple-looking white porcelain bottle. Seeing the surprised look on Tang Ping's face, it seemed that there was something rare and good in the bottle.
"This is the hard-to-find spiritual spring water!"
Tang Ping said as she gently pulled out the stopper from the mouth of the bottle, and immediately a strong spiritual energy flowed out of the bottle, making the cave feel like it was in a spiritual vein, shocking the five people! Tang Ping also put the mouth of the bottle up to her nose and sniffed, took a deep breath, and then closed her eyes with a face full of intoxication.
Spirit spring water? Why did those former monks hide the spiritual spring water?
Opening her eyes, she saw several companions looking at her in confusion. Tang Ping smiled, handed the bottle to Li Jian, and said excitedly: "Brother Li, this is a good thing. This bottle contains deep sea water." The spiritual spring water at the bottom, if your sword can be used, you come first."
Li Jian took the bottle. It was heavy and full of spiritual energy. Having experienced the island of giant trees, Li Jian could naturally recognize the spiritual spring water now, but this time he felt that the spiritual spring water in this bottle was better than that on the island of giant trees. The spiritual spring water is much stronger.
"How come there are springs at the bottom of the sea? Shouldn't there be sea water there?" Yanxuan asked.
"Yes, Sister Yan," Qian Chao said, "I also read it from the book. It is said that there are springs even at the bottom of the sea. When the spiritual spring water gushes out, it mixes with the sea water. It is difficult to collect it, but there are some strange things. The legend is said to be under the sea water ten thousand feet deep. There is no sea water in some places. The seabed is like dry land. The sea water is around and above but cannot fall down. The things that can be found in such a place are the most treasures in the world. , and if there is a spiritual spring there, it will be the best spring water in the world."
After hearing this, Yanxuan turned around and looked at the white porcelain bottle in Li Jian's hand, and said, "Is the spring water in it like that?"
The joy on Tang Ping's face was still there, and she said: "The missing spiritual spring water here is that kind of spiritual spring water, but it is definitely much better than the spiritual spring water we found at Mu Kui Beast last time."
Li Jian was full of surprise and took out his two green bamboo branches and poured the spiritual spring water in the bottle on them drop by drop.
When the spiritual spring dripped on it, the green bamboo branches suddenly turned crystal green and emitted a gleaming emerald light. For a moment, Li Jian had the illusion that the green bamboo branches were pulling out branches and leaves, appearing to be full of vitality!
In order for Li Jian's Green Bamboo Spirit Sword to become sharper, in addition to constantly tempering it with his own sword energy, it also needs to be watered with different spiritual spring water that he found. After all, his sword is made of two pieces of spirit. Zhuzhi, the unexpected spiritual spring water that came today really made Li Jian very happy.
When the spiritual spring water no longer seeped into the green bamboo branches, Li Jian knew that the watering of the green bamboo this time had been completed. He handed the bottle back to Tang Ping with satisfaction and said: "That's enough, today is really a fruitful harvest! "
After saying that, Li Jian poured his sword energy into the green bamboo branch. With a long sword cry, a white light shimmering and a cold spirit sword was held in his hand. Li Jian said happily: "Not bad, compared to It was better before!”
Because the spiritual spring water at the bottom of the sea was much stronger than the one previously obtained from the Giant Wood Island, Tang Ping also gave a small bottle to Qian Chao, and collected the rest herself. She said: "I will take the rest. I took it back to make wine and see if the wine produced is better."
