Chapter 1194: Mysterious Shuttle
The sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect walked over slowly.
When he saw the stone on the shelf, he did not find it strange at all. He explained, “This is a Raw Stone. It’s one of the most precious ores in the universe. The spiritual Qi contained in it is more than a million times that of a high-grade spirit coin. It can continuously absorb spiritual Qi from the universe to replenish itself. As long as it’s not damaged, it can be used forever.”
After explaining, the sect leader of the Mystic Sky Sect said with a smile, “This is a pretty good treasure. Even in the Mystic Sky Sect, we only have 3 pieces. It’s very beneficial for cultivation. Do you want to consider it?”
Li Daoyi’s eyes were filled with envy, and he said, “A Raw Stone has another function. If you bury one in a place with sufficient spiritual Qi, it’ll absorb spiritual Qi all the time. The place will probably form a spirit ore mine in the future.”
Ou Yangming was moved. This thing was certainly a treasure. Li Daoyi and the Mystic Sky Sect’s sect leader had no need to deceive him.
As for the spiritual ore mine mentioned by Li Daoyi, Ou Yangming just smiled. Even if there was such a benefit, it was useless to him. Which spirit ore mine could not be formed after countless years? He did not have the patience.
After thinking for a moment, Ou Yangming gave the sect leader an apologetic gaze and said, “I still want to look around.”
“It’s fine, you can do as you like.”
Ou Yangming continued walking forward.
The treasury was not very big, so Ou Yangming quickly strolled inside. There were many treasures inside, and there were many that he did not recognize.
Among these treasures, there were 3 that were the best. One was the Raw Stone from before, one was a Grade 9 spiritual herb, and the other was a Taoist Tool, which was a hammer.
Ou Yangming could smith Taoist Tools, and he would not use such a strange weapon. That hammer was not attractive to him at all.
After giving up on this, only the Raw Stone and the Grade 9 spiritual herb called the Dark Fragrant Bauhinia Flower remained. Ou Yangming’s gaze swept over the 2 treasures a few times.
Finally, he stared at the Raw Stone.
At least this Raw Stone was still very useful for his cultivation. Grade 9 spiritual herbs were extremely precious, but they still needed other fine spiritual herbs for pills to be refined. The young fellow really did not want to continue wasting his time and effort looking for spiritual herbs.
‘I’ll choose that Raw Stone,’ Ou Yangming thought to himself. He walked toward the shelf where the Raw Stone was placed and reached out to pick it up.
Obtaining a Raw Stone without doing much was a pleasant surprise for Ou Yangming. Nonetheless, just as his fingertip was about to touch the Raw Stone, he stopped. He looked behind the Raw Stone, and there was a bronze shuttle.
The shuttle looked ordinary as if it was not a treasure at all. It was because of this that Ou Yangming noticed it.
This was the Demon King’s treasury, so not everything was qualified to be stored here.
Ou Yangming tilted his body and picked up the bronze shuttle. His expression changed slightly, and he felt the Earth’s Demolition Cauldron in his body throb slightly.
‘Could this be a good thing?’
Ou Yangming was delighted.
After all, the Earth’s Demolition Cauldron was a supreme treasure that was an Innate Spirit Treasure. Something that could attract its attention could not be just an ordinary shuttle.
Once Ou Yangming made up his mind, he retracted his gaze and said, “I’ll choose this.”
The Mystic Sky Sect’s sect leader and Li Daoyi were stunned. They both thought that Ou Yangming would choose the Raw Stone, but they did not expect him to choose this broken shuttle.
What was the use of this thing?
Li Daoyi focused on the shuttle. It seemed to have existed for a long time. The shuttle was already covered with green copper rust. It looked simple and unadorned, and he could not sense any treasure aura from it.
“Brother Ou, are you really choosing that thing? That Raw Stone is a good thing. The Seven Stars Pavilion doesn’t have a single one. Besides, there’s also that Grade 9 spiritual herb…” Li Daoyi felt that Ou Yangming was simply wasting his chance.
“Young friend, are you sure?” The Mystic Sky Sect sect leader also glanced at the shuttle before he asked.
Ou Yangming said with certainty, “I’m sure.”
Since this opportunity was obtained for nothing, Ou Yangming also chose to gamble. If this item really was a treasure, he would make a huge profit. Even if it was not anything, it would not be a big deal.
After Ou Yangming put away the shuttle, the Mystic Sky Sect’s sect leader waved his hand and put all the treasures into his interspatial equipment.
This time, more than 1,000 human powerhouses had entered the ruins to exterminate the demons. Each of them would gain some points. The Mystic Sky Sect had to pay for these points.
After emptying the treasury, the few of them flew up again.
“I’ll go out in advance to prepare. You can come out after a day.” The Mystic Sky Sect’s sect leader turned into a shooting star and disappeared into the sky.
After watching the sect leader leave, Ou Yangming did not think about continuing to slaughter Ancient Demons. It had been almost half a month since they entered this place. Most of the demons had been killed. It would be very difficult to find one anymore. Furthermore, now that he had 700,000 points in his hands, he would not care about that.
“It’s finally over.” Li Daoyi retracted his gaze. The Mystic Sky Sect sect leader’s meaning was very clear. The operation to slaughter the Ancient Demons would end tomorrow.
This time, the first place would undoubtedly belong to Ou Yangming. Li Daoyi’s gaze was somewhat fiery.
Ou Yangming felt his gaze and smiled. He asked, “What kind of Taoist Tool do you plan to have?”
As soon as he said this, Li Daoyi became excited.
It seemed that this young fellow had not forgotten his promise.
Li Daoyi had worked hard to follow Ou Yangming for almost a month, to the point that his points were still more than 1,200 only. There were even some powerhouses in the law boundary who had surpassed him in points. He had paid a considerable price for this.
What was he doing this for? It was all for the Acquired Taoist Tool!
“Brother Ou, I want a treasure sword…” Li Daoyi said excitedly.
Ou Yangming let out a sigh of relief. Among all the weapons, a treasure sword was relatively simple. If the other party wanted armor, he might feel distressed. A treasure sword was nothing.
“Okay, I’ll remember it.” Ou Yangming smiled. “Once we go out, I’ll help you smith it.”
“Thank you, Brother Ou,” Li Daoyi thanked him again.
Time passed very quickly. A day passed in the blink of an eye.
There was no change in the ranking on the points wall. The first place was still the 999th powerhouse. The 700,000 points made everyone dizzy as if they were in a dream.
The second-ranked person was the master of the Heavenly Star Mansion. His points had increased rapidly in the past few days, but the gap could not be bridged.
In a remote corner of the Desolate Ancient Ruins, the master of the Heavenly Star Mansion took back his jade token. Beneath his feet was an Ancient Demon in the law boundary.
“I’ve finally broken through 180,000 points. Looks like the first place will be mine.” The master of Heavenly Star Mansions was very excited. After being reminded by his daughter, he had not stopped for a moment. He even killed an existence in the second step and barely broke through 180,000 points.
‘I wonder how many points the person Jianjia mentioned has now?’ The master wondered.
The heart-shaped stone in his body did not respond. He took it out, but there was no light on it. This made the master slightly disappointed.
He tried to contact her daughter, but there was no response. This was not the first time such a situation had happened, so the master was not surprised.
“There are fewer Ancient Demons in this Desolate Ancient Ruins. I’ve searched for so long, but I only found one. It seems that it’ll be over soon.”
The master of the Heavenly Star Mansion flew into the air again but before he could find another demon, the jade token suddenly flashed with light. Inside it was a message from the Mystic Sky Sect’s sect leader.
“It’s over!”
Every holder of the jade token received this message.
“It’s finally over.”
The human powerhouses looked at their jade tokens with joy on their faces. The battle during this period had exhausted them. Many of them had even sacrificed their lives.
“Let’s go. It’s time to go back.”
“That’s right. With so many points, I can exchange them for the qualification of an inner sect disciple for my child.”
“I wonder who’s in the first place. It’s probably the master of the Heavenly Star Mansion.”
Streams of light flashed in the sky, and everyone flew in the same direction.
When Ou Yangming arrived at the gathering point, there were already several hundred people here, and some people were flying over from afar.
The people around them were discussing what they had seen and heard in the ruins, and some were discussing how to use the points they had obtained.
There were also people who had lost their companions to the demons. They did not look not very good.
“Young friend, how many points do you have?” A middle-aged man in the law boundary flew over from the sky.
The middle-aged man landed next to Ou Yangming and asked casually.
Ou Yangming smiled and answered, “Just 700,000 points.”
“700 points?”
The middle-aged man did not hear him clearly. He said encouragingly, “Looking at your age, it’s very good that you have 700 points. You should be able to exchange them for a good magic weapon.”
“No, you heard me wrongly. I said 700,000 points,” Ou Yangming corrected the middle-aged man.
This time, the middle-aged man heard him clearly. His eyes were dull, then he laughed out loud. “Young friend, aren’t you too good at bragging? 700,000 points? What kind of joke is that? Do you know what 700,000 points mean?”
The middle-aged man’s voice was very loud, so many people around heard him. They also looked at Ou Yangming with strange looks.
“700,000?”
“Don’t you think whether it makes sense before you brag?”
Those slightly more powerful Rulers of the laws looked at their jade tokens, which had more than 1,000 or a few hundred points. After listening to this young fellow’s words, they felt that while they had lived a little longer, they were as shameless as him.
“The Heavenly Star Mansion’s master is here!”
Someone cried out in surprise, and everyone looked toward the sky.
