By that time, all these items would still be on Xianyun. It would be impossible to take them back.
What should be done then?
He Song naturally chose to transfer all the items to himself as much as possible once he had harvested some.
In this way, even if Xianyun really fell inside, at least the objects in the Elixir Refinement Room had fallen into He Song’s hands.
He would not return empty-handed.
Controlling Xianyun, He Song returned to the Golden Elixir Cave Mansion.
After briefly observing, He Song quickly controlled Xianyun to another room.
As he stepped into the room, He Song sent out his divine sense, scanning the room.
Suddenly, everything in the room appeared in his perception.
It seemed to be a study room.
In the small room, rows of bookshelves were arranged.
And on the bookshelves, many books were placed.
However, He Song was slightly puzzled, wondering why the Golden Elixir Master did not record the information in these books on jade slips.
If a jade slip was used to hold them, the books in this room could probably be all recorded on just one slip.
Even if it were double or multiple times, a single jade slip could fully record it.
Why did he use paper books to record?
Moreover, there were only books in this room, no jade slips at all.
Such a strange scene made He Song quite curious.
Immediately, He Song controlled Xianyun to enter the room and randomly took down a dust-covered book from a bookshelf.
Despite being centuries old, the book showed no sign of decay.
There was no damage from dampness or pests when the pages were turned.
It seemed, these books were not ordinary things.
After He Song controlled Xianyun to open a book, such thought flashed in his mind.
However, when his divine sense perceived the scripts on the book and he began to comprehend them, He Song seemed rather startled.
These books.
No.
The book in He Song’s hands didn’t contain any secret martial arts techniques.
Nor was it about Golden Elixir methodology.
And even more so, it wasn’t about any mysterious cultivation skills.
It was a volume of picture books.
In the picture books, beautifully drawn women posed gracefully.
Seeing this, He Song, not convinced, controlled Xianyun to pick up a few more books from other shelves.
The result was the same, after opening to take a look. Only at this moment did He Song finally realize.
so.
The Golden Elixir Master who built this cave mansion had a reason for not recording the book content into jade slips.
And, the Golden Elixir Master had a reason for building this room.
These enduring books that looked better than ordinary books also had their reasons.
He Song scanned the study once again with his divine sense. Observing carefully and confirming that there were no valuable items, only then did he control Xianyun to leave the room.
However, after leaving the room, He Song’s divine sense swept over the whole room, noticed a plaque hanging at the entrance of the room.
“Blooms Pavilion.”
Looking at the three big words “Blooms Pavilion”.
He Song couldn’t help but think of the books in Blooms Pavilion.
Could it be that…
The women drawn on the books in Blooms Pavilion were all the Golden Elixir Master’s crushes?
A bold thought flashed through his mind, He Song quickly understood the Golden Elixir Master’s preferences.
So, there are monks like this in the Cultivation World.
He left the Blooms Pavilion with an awkward expression.
He Song then controlled Xianyun to continue onward.
Soon, they arrived in front of another room.
It seemed to be a quiet chamber dedicated to cultivation.
The big door of the quiet chamber was tightly closed, and divine sense could not get in.
Having no choice, after controlling Xianyun to reach here, He Song controlled Xianyun to slowly open the door of the quiet chamber.
As a spirit puppet, Xianyun was made of very durable materials and his combat capabilities can match that of a Mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Opening the door to the chamber was naturally effortless.
But.
As soon as the door to the quiet chamber was opened, two golden armor guards emerged before his eyes.
Apart from the two Golden Armor Guards guarding the entrance of the cave mansion, there were two more hidden in the Golden Elixir Cave Mansion, and they were hidden behind the door of the quiet chamber.
The moment anyone opened the door of the quiet chamber, they would most likely be met with the frenzied attack of the two Golden Armor Guards.
Upon realizing that there were two Golden Armor Guards hidden behind the door of the quiet chamber, He Song immediately reacted.
The Golden Armor Guards were formidable.
From He Song’s estimation, they could contend with cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.
Xianyun, whom he controlled, only had the strength of the Mid-stage
Foundation Establishment, and would certainly not survive against two Golden Armor Guards with the strength of the Foundation Establishment Great Perfection.
Fortunately, He Song had early on set up the Golden Elixir Array in the valley and used this array to suppress the two Golden Armor Guards at the entrance of the cave mansion, keeping them stationary.
So when he realized that there were two more Golden Armor Guards behind the door of the quiet room.
He Song, who was inside the Golden Elixir Array, immediately manipulated it to suppress the two Golden Armor Guards behind the door of the quiet room as well.
The Golden Elixir Array should have no problem suppressing four puppets whose combat power was comparable to the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage.
Although this Golden Elixir Array was weaker in all aspects compared to one that specialized in a single path.
But a Golden Elixir Array is still a Golden Elixir Array.
On the level of power, it was not something the Golden Armor Guards could compete with.
Under such circumstances, not to mention four Golden Armor Guards, even ten of them could be suppressed altogether.
However, after suppressing four Golden Armor Guards whose combat power was comparable to the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment stage.
The speed of the Golden Elixir Array’s consumption of spirit stones had obviously become much faster.
The visible dissipation of spirit stones made He Song feel as if his wealth was dwindling every second.
But, compared to the gains he made in this Golden Elixir Cave Mansion, He Song thought that these expenses were worthwhile.
He ignored the rapidly consuming spirit stones.
After suppressing the two Golden Armor Guards in the quiet room, He Song immediately projected his divine sense to scan over the room that already had an open door.
There wasn’t much inside the quiet room.
One skeleton.
A Sound Transmission Amulet.
A storage bag.
Some unidentified elixirs scattered inside the room, devoid of spirit Qi.
And a jade slip.
Nothing else.
However, these things before his eyes didn’t diminish the light in He Song’s eyes, but rather filled his gaze with a look of delight.
A skeleton!
The skeleton of the Golden Elixir Master!
Before He Song opened this quiet room, he had guessed what might be inside.
After all, this was his first time seeing such a senior’s cave mansion, so naturally, he was somewhat curious about everything inside it.
Although the discovery of a senior’s cave mansion, leading to a rapid rise in fortune, is a common occurrence in the Cultivation World.
But this was the first time He Song had personally witnessed such a scene.
Before opening the door of the quiet room, He Song had wondered if he would see the skeleton of the Golden Elixir Master inside.
Would the skeleton, after hundreds of years, still appear lifelike? The scene before He Song’s eyes now was giving him the answer.
After hundreds of years.
Even the skeleton of the Golden Elixir Master had turned into a pile of bones, without any lifelike state remaining.
Meanwhile, the other items within the quiet room drew He Song’s attention, causing him to lose interest in the skeleton that had turned into bones.
Yet, when the opportunity was right before his eyes.
He Song’s expression became increasingly calm.
If, before opening the quiet room, there was a touch of anticipation in He Song’s eyes.
Then now, after his divine sense had swept over the entire quiet room and discovered the greatest opportunity within the Golden Elixir Cave Mansion, He Song’s expression had become extremely calm.
The opportunity before his eyes, seen by He Song, made his mood quickly turn grave.
The skeleton in front of him was that of a Golden Elixir Master.
Although he had been dead for hundreds of years.
But the means he left behind, He Song couldn’t ignore.
In fact, he had to be on guard.
As a transmigrator and an everlasting being, He Song’s cherishing of his own life could be said to exceed anyone else’s.
Therefore, when opportunity was right before his eyes, out of love for his own life, He Song didn’t lose his reason and grow greedy.
Instead, he became even calmer, becoming more serious.
As a cultivator at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage, He Song didn’t know what methods a Golden Elixir Master possessed.
He had never even seen a scene of a Golden Elixir Master in action.
But he knew.
The Golden Elixir Master, now reduced to bones in front of him, was anything but kindly.
In the quiet room, the two Golden Armor Guards, who were still struggling and consuming his massive amount of spirit stones, were hidden behind the door of the quiet room.
If He Song had approached personally, he probably would have perished in an instant.
Having already detected one crisis.
He Song was not the least bit careless about the means left behind by this Golden Elixir Master.
However, the fortune was right before his eyes, and He Song wasn’t going to lose his courage to take it.
After some thought,
He Song manipulated Xianyun to move forward and pick up the jade slip closest to the door of the quiet room.
Without using his divine sense to investigate, He Song directly controlled Xianyun to put the jade slip into the storage bag.
Having done all this, and not finding anything unusual around him, He Song then continued to control Xianyun to come to the skeleton.
In front of the skeleton, Xianyun picked up the Sound Transmission Amulet as well.
It was also put into the storage bag.
Next, he put the skeleton of the Golden Elixir Master, which was now only bones, into the storage bag as well.
After finishing all of this, He Song then controlled Xianyun to collect all the unknown elixirs scattered in the quiet room into the storage bag as well.
Soon, the quiet room was cleaned up, leaving only the storage bag lying quietly in the center of the room..
