Chapter 332: Chapter 324: The Appearance of the Golden Elixir

Translator: 549690339

“Is this a cave mansion of a senior? As a junior, can I help with some cleaning?”

After six hours, Wang Duan seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lighting up.

If he were to say this, wouldn’t anybody playing tricks on him just be watching him blunder his way through the cave mansion?

“Then I will start cleaning the cave mansion for the senior, and I hope the senior will not blame me.”

Ten hours later, seeing that no one was still responding to him,

Wang Duan finally stood up and began to explore the cave mansion in front of him.

Who cares if someone was playing a trick on him?

Looking at the cave mansion, it was incredibly luxurious, even the building materials were spiritual materials.

If he were to stealthily take some things, he could become flourishing immediately.

The brave could die of gluttony, the coward would die of starvation.

He’s going all in!

Being an Evil Cultivator, he’s always been one to lick blood off a blade, Wang Duan has never lacked courage.

Acting cowardly before, it was merely to avoid stirring up trouble.

Now that it has come to this, it might be better to try his luck, there might be a chance to turn the tide.

The person who knocked him out in an instant, and brought him here must be very formidable.

If he does nothing and offends that person,

The only thing waiting for him may be death.

Since he will die if he does nothing, maybe once he starts moving, he might survive.

With this thought, Wang Duan hastened his steps and moved quickly forward.

On the other hand,

Wang Duan’s changes in expression and attitude in his words, were all seen by He Song.

Hearing Wang Duan’s voices in the cave mansion, He Song looked calm, but he had already made a judgement on Wang Duan’s behavior.

As expected of an Evil Cultivator.

After realizing that no one was answering, his true nature was immediately revealed.

Cleaning the cave mansion?

He’s probably looking for some opportunities in this Golden Elixir Cave Mansion?

However, He Song merely wanted Wang Duan to check for traps for him, and didn’t care too much, he just kept an eye on his every move.

Like He Song, the first room Wang Duan entered was the reception room.

Regrettably, the reception room was cleaner than a licked plate.

He Song was initially disappointed and left.

Wang Duan naturally would not be an exception.

Upon entering the reception room and noticing that it seemed no one had been there for a long time,

Wang Duan quickly pretended to start cleaning.

Cultivators clean cave mansions extremely quickly.

With one spell, the entire reception room became spotless in an instant.

After doing all this, Wang Duan walked around the reception room again, seemingly searching for any treasures that might be left.

After confirming that there were no treasures left, he left reluctantly.

However, when he was leaving, his gaze lingered on the furniture made of spiritual materials, and the house for a moment.

By the looks of it,

if he does not see anyone in this cave mansion in the future, he may move all the furniture and houses here.

After all, these things are made of spiritual materials and are worth quite a lot.

After cleaning the reception room, Wang Duan continued to walk on and soon entered the Elixir Refinement Room.

The Elixir Refinement Room, had already been emptied by He Song, who didn’t bother to reset it.

Therefore, when Wang Duan entered the Elixir Refinement Room and saw an empty room, he immediately exited.

He went into another room without looking back.

This place,

Is the Blooms Pavilion.

In the Blooms Pavilion, apart from some women’s picture albums, there was nothing else.

Wang Duan casually flipped through them and found them uninteresting. After cleaning the place, he left the Blooms Pavilion directly.

After leaving the Blooms Pavilion,

Wang Duan’s figure also appeared in the meditation room where the Golden Elixir Skeleton was located.

However, when Wang Duan stepped into the meditation room and saw the Golden Elixir Skeleton, his expression changed slightly.

But, just as he was about to retreat, his eyes were instead drawn to the things on the floor of the meditation room.

At this moment, all the items in the meditation room had been put back in their original places.

A skeleton of a Golden Core Master, a Sound Transmission Amulet, a storage bag,

some nameless elixirs that had lost all of their spirit Qi scattered around the meditation room, and a jade slip.

The appearance of these items led Duan’s gaze to the storage bag next to the skeleton.

As an Evil Cultivator, Wang Duan understood very well.

Generally speaking, a cultivator’s entire fortune is mostly stored in the storage bag.

But what he couldn’t figure out was, why didn’t the senior expert who took

him, take these things away?

Instead, he let him come all the way here and see these items.

Could it be… that these things aren’t valuable?

His gaze moved to the storage bag, Sound Transmission Amulet, jade slip, and the nameless elixirs that had lost all spirit Qi on the floor, as well as the bleached skeleton.

Wang Duan’s brow furrowed slightly as he considered the value of these items.

He recognized the storage bag,

But not the Sound Transmission Amulet.

He recognized the jade slip.

Yet he did not recognize those elixirs.

As for the skeleton that had already turned into white bones, he also had no idea what cultivation level it had reached.

But, just one storage bag and a jade slip he recognized were enough to stir a trace of greed in his heart, he—an Evil Cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining.

What was inside the storage bag, after all?

Was there any divine skill or secret method recorded in the jade slip?

Various thoughts flashed through his mind.

The look in Wang Duan’s eyes as he looked at these things in front of him gradually showed a glimmer of greed.

“Should I… have a look?”

“After all, even if I take a look, no one should notice, right?”

“Just putting the jade slip on my forehead and holding the storage bag in my hand.”

“Then I can know if there are any divine skills or secret methods recorded in the jade slip and whether or not there are any precious treasures in the storage bag.”

“The revered elder who brought me here shouldn’t notice such a minor move.”

“Besides, if he did notice, wasn’t it him who brought me here?” “Perhaps, he wanted to leave me these opportunities?”

In his heart, Wang Duan repeatedly tried to convince himself.

Even though he knew that the revered elder who brought him here wasn’t harbouring any good intentions.

Even though he knew that amongst these things in front of him, there were likely hidden dangers.

Even though he knew that the voice in his mind wasn’t right, and it might not even be what he was thinking.

Even though he knew…

But there was always a voice echoing in his mind.

Take a look.

Just one look!

After one look, he would know what secrets lay hidden within the jade slip.

After one look, he would know what treasures lay hidden within the storage bag.

Gradually, the look of greed in Wang Duan’s eyes grew stronger.

His gaze towards the jade slip and the storage bag was becoming increasingly greedy.

Hidden in the shadows, He Song felt a chill in his heart when he saw this scene.

Wang Duan in front of him was an Evil Cultivator, but he was completely sane.

This was evident from the fact that he had concealed himself to ambush the passing Loose Cultivators and had waited for a long time after entering the cave mansion before finally starting his movements.

However.

After he entered the meditation room and looked at the jade slip and the storage bag, his gaze had obviously gone wrong.

That gaze, he had never seen such greed even when he had seen women in books at the Blooms Pavilion before.

His demeanor and his sanity seemed to have been affected by something.

Seeing this scene, He Song immediately realized something and concealed himself even deeper.

At the same time.

After struggling for a long time, Wang Duan finally stepped forward and reached out to grab the jade slip closest to him.

As the jade slip was in his hand, He Song clearly saw a look of pleasure flash across Wang Duan’s face.

Soon, when Wang Duan put the jade slip from his hand to his forehead.

He Song immediately saw Wang Duan’s expression turn into a mixture of shock and joy.

It seemed that he had learned something surprising and pleasing from the jade slip.

And when Wang Duan moved the jade slip away from his forehead, his feet moved with it, grabbing the storage bag next to the skeleton.

The next moment.

He Song saw Wang Duan throw his head back and laugh wildly.

Presumably, it was because he had seen something valuable in the storage bag.

After laughing for a while.

Wang Duan’s face was filled with joy, but his laughter gradually faded.

At the same time, Wang Duan’s gaze fell on the unknown elixirs next to the skeleton that had lost all their spirit Qi.

He Song didn’t know why Wang Duan was interested in these elixirs.

To He Song, all of these elixirs seemed like trash.

They had lost all their spiritual energy over the years.

Such things would probably be thrown away with disgust by a Qi Refining first-tier cultivator.

Having no Spirit Qi.

It meant nothing to any cultivator.

However, while He Song was wondering, Wang Duan, who was currently in the meditation room, did something unexpected.

After looking at the elixirs that had lost all their spirit Qi, Wang Duan immediately lifted his leg, took a step forward, and stomped down. Suddenly, one of the elixirs closest to Wang Duan deflated under his foot.

It was squashed into a pancake sticking to the ground.

However, after doing this, Wang Duan didn’t show any other expression.

It seemed he wasn’t surprised by the scene in front of him.

However, while He Song was still wondering.

Wang Duan once again lifted his leg, stomping another elixir into a muddy pancake.

Then.

Under He Song’s puzzled gaze, Wang Duan crushed all the elixirs in the meditation room that had lost all their spirit Qi one by one under his foot.

It wasn’t until the end, when all the elixirs were crushed and almost all turned into pancakes, that He Song began to understand something.

There was one elixir in the meditation room that did not turn into a pancake under Wang Duan’s step.

On the contrary, after he stamped on it.

The mud-like surface cracked a little, and a golden light leaked out.

With the appearance of this golden light, there was an intense look of joy on Wang Duan’s face.

He didn’t crush the elixirs on the ground again.

Wang Duan reached out and picked up the object that looked like an elixir, which had cracked a slit and was emitting a golden light from within..
