Chapter 244 Three Melons and Two Dates
Under such circumstances, Zhou Daocheng was also extremely cautious. Once there was a conflict between the two parties, it would probably be his side that would suffer.
Although they do have an advantage in terms of the number of foundation-building monks, there is a big difference in strength.
Although it is not an easy task for a strong man with the third level of foundation building to defeat two people with the first level of foundation building, if he has to fight for life and death, there is a high probability that he will win the final victory with the third level of foundation building. .
So if possible, he would definitely not want a fight to break out here.
Of course, if we really get to the last step, a battle must break out. When there is no way to retreat, Zhou Daocheng doesn't mind taking out some trump cards and fighting for it.
The two sides faced off for more than ten seconds, both wary of each other.
In the end, Lin Xiaoyuan was the first to speak, saying: "Lord of the Foggy Valley, I must tell you the truth. Now that I haven't even seen the treasure, it's not appropriate to fight to the death, right?"
Zhou Daocheng looked calm and said: "Then it depends on what Fellow Daoist Lin means."
"Then how about we do this? Let's go in and explore together. If it's a classic book or technique, then each of us can copy a copy. If it's a treasure of heaven, material, earth, or other treasures, then we can discuss the distribution. It's better than fighting to the death right now. ." Lin Xiaoyuan suggested in a deep voice.
Although he had the upper hand in strength, he was also extremely fearful of the Lord of Foggy Valley in front of him.
Before seeing absolute benefits, we are unwilling to make the relationship too tense.
After Zhou Daocheng thought for a moment, he nodded and said with a smile: "What is this, Fellow Daoist Lin? You and I are allies, so naturally we should advance and retreat together and help each other."
"Hahaha, that's the case!"
Zhou Daobai and Xie Zhouhe also sighed as they saw the two leaders going from tense situations to having a pleasant conversation in a short period of time.
It seems that if you want to be the leader of a force, you really can't do it without some ability.
But it is precisely the two people who take a step back from each other that can make the next exploration smoother.
Although there is still intrigue, at least the strength has improved a lot and it is more convenient to explore.
After taking a rough look at the situation in the ruins, we can see that there are not many buildings here, they can even be said to be very crude, and the layout is extremely simple.
There are only three parts of the pavilion, namely the ordinary pavilions on both sides, the tall palace in front, and the area behind the palace.
This is a common layout for many forces. The ordinary pavilions on both sides are inhabited by ordinary tribesmen and disciples with weak strength. Most of them are cave courtyards. The overall items in them should not be many, at most they are daily necessities.
However, since everyone is already here, they are not in a hurry to go back. They naturally check each room and loot as many treasures as possible.
Four people start from the left.
As soon as I walked in, I saw a thick layer of dust on the ground, and the air was filled with the smell of corruption. It was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
The interior decoration is also very simple, with only two simple rooms. Outside is a small wooden living room with a few chairs, and inside is a training room.
This is almost the simplest cave structure in the world of immortality. It can be seen that the monks who practiced here must have practiced hard.
But thinking about it, if the Xuanyin Sect is really forced to flee here, it is most likely that it has hatred in its heart and is thinking about how to revive the sect. How can it be fun and enjoyable?
After a quick inspection, there wasn't much.
Only in the inner training room, I found some daily training items, more than two hundred spirit stones, and a copy of the "Yinlu Jing" of training techniques.
"Yin Dew Sutra" is a second-level low-grade skill. It is based on cultivating Yin Qi and focuses on the water attribute. It is considered a good quality skill.
Unfortunately, the "Yinlu Sutra" found here is only a handwritten copy, and only the Qi Refining Period part.
But Zhou Daocheng is not impatient. There are many caves to come, and it is very likely that he can find the foundation building part.
If a complete set of skills can be formed, the value will be greatly improved and it can also add a bit of heritage to the family.
After that, the four people conducted another round of careful inspection of the cave, prying open almost all the walls and lifting all the floors. After making sure that nothing was left, they turned around and left.
The same goes for the rest of the caves that followed. Almost all of them were turned upside down, and no treasures that might exist in them could be found.
However, no particularly exciting treasures emerged.
All in all, they are almost all daily cultivation items, mainly four items: Yin Qi cultivation techniques, spiritual stones, elixirs, and talismans.
After almost searching the entire left side, a total of more than 3,000 spiritual stones, the complete "Yinlu Jing", and several first-level elixirs and talismans were harvested.
Except for the second-level low-grade "Yinlu Jing" which has some value, the other three melons and two dates are simply sending beggars away.
Looking at the 1,500 spirit stones allocated to him, Zhou Daocheng was extremely lucky. Fortunately, the conflict did not break out in advance, otherwise it would not be worth it for these 1,500 spirit stones.
In fact, with the continuous search of the cave, the relationship between the two parties has become much more harmonious.
The same is true for the caves on the right. Although there are many caves, there are really not many things in them.
In the end, the items found were not much different, more than 3,500 spirit stones, as well as a number of elixirs and talismans of little value.
In total, after searching the ordinary cave at the front, a total of 7,500 spirit stones, a "Yinlu Sutra" and some cultivation resources of little value were obtained.
However, it is strange that no corpses of monks were found here, nor were any magic tools or storage bags.
So how did this relic become deserted? It has become a puzzling question.
Judging from the perfect facilities here, there has been no war, and no strong invaders have invaded here. It is a very safe place to stay.
Even before these monks left, they looked very calm and showed no signs of panic.
But after they left, they seemed to never come back, but all left together, as if they were carrying out some urgent tasks.
What happened in the past and what kind of difficulties they encountered are now unknown. The long river of history has erased many traces of things, leaving only devastation.
Thousands of years later, when someone came to this relic again, it was already a look between two eras.
Zhou Daocheng and others did not care about what had happened in the past. What they really cared about was what treasures existed here.
After looting the outermost cave, distributing the spirit stones, and copying a copy of the Yinlu Sutra, they came to the tall palace in the center.
This should be the main body of the building and also the core of this hidden base. Important areas such as the conference room, the training hall, the scripture library, etc. are most likely to be here.
