The dead could not come back to life. Moreover, they did not have any deep feelings for the middle-aged woman and the yellow-faced man. They were not even friends, so they naturally would not feel sad. Since they were already dead, the treasures still had to be divided. What was undeniable was that with the two dead, each of them would get a bigger share of the treasures. Everyone's emotions were complicated.
Clearing his throat, Jin Wanshuang said, "Right now, there are nine of us left. Lady Murong will get twenty percent of the treasures, and we will each get ten percent. Now, let's break the formation and count the upper grade spirit stones."
As he spoke, Jin Wanshuang arrived before the Spirit Lock Array.
Ha!
Silver light overflowed from his palm as Jin Wanshuang's palm slammed into the void. A ring of light yellow light blossomed in the void; it was the light of the Spirit Lock Array. As Jin Wanshuang's palm slammed down, the array's light fluctuated, dimming and brightening at times.
Jin Wanshuang had long since had experience in this aspect. His palm pressed against the array's light and swiped horizontally.
Pop!
The Spirit Lock Array was broken, and the dense spirit Qi within the array was released, spreading out in all directions. In an instant, the entire palace was filled with spirit Qi, making it slightly moist.
"Hehe!"
The twin brothers could not help but smile. The previous battle had made them extremely satisfied, and now, there was so much wealth waiting for them. Life's happiness was nothing more than this.
Just like the twin brothers, everyone revealed a knowing smile. The killing intent left over from the great battle also vanished like smoke in thin air. As for the middle-aged woman and the yellow-faced man's deaths, they had long since forgotten about them. At this moment, no one was thinking about them. All they were thinking about was how many high-grade spirit stones they could get.
"Everyone, start counting."
Jin Wanshuang nodded to everyone.
…
With their powerful soul power, everyone's counting speed was extremely fast. In just a short while, everyone had finished.
"I have eighty-one million here."
"I have seventy-five million here."
"Eighty-four million."
…
Apart from the indifferent young man who was still recovering from his injuries, the eight of them added up to a total of six hundred and forty-eight million, which was more than a hundred million more than the five hundred million. This was definitely a great harvest. Even if they did not gain anything from this, it was still a rewarding trip.
Jin Wanshuang said with a smile, "A total of six hundred and forty-eight million. Ten percent is sixty-four million and eight hundred thousand. Lady Murong will take twenty percent, so it will be one hundred and twenty-nine million six hundred thousand. Now, everyone can take your share. Don't take more, but don't take less either."
"It's more than I imagined!"
Ye Chen's upper grade spirit stones had already surpassed thirty million, reaching a total of thirty-six million. With the addition of sixty-four million and eight hundred thousand, he had over a hundred million. Such a huge amount of wealth was something even the majority of sixth grade sects couldn't compare to. If not for the upper grade storage ring he had obtained in the Blackwater Alliance's crystal vault, a mid grade storage ring wouldn't have been able to store so many upper grade spirit stones.
Murong Qingcheng's harvest was the most. This was all thanks to her Dark Force Field, which allowed her to obtain two portions of the wealth.
After collecting their own upper grade spirit stones, everyone's gazes fell on the seven chests of energy crystals.
The distribution of energy crystals was a bit complicated, because there were too many types of energy crystals, and everyone's needs were different. However, energy crystals were the same as spirit stones, and could also be used for cultivation. For example, for those who cultivated fire Zhen Yuan, using fire energy crystals to cultivate would have a better effect than using spirit stones of the same grade. Moreover, it could increase the destructive power of the fire Zhen Yuan, as well as contain more fire attribute energy.
"First, let's count how many energy crystals we have."
Jin Wanshuang frowned and said.
Soon, the number of energy crystals was also counted.
There were seventy thousand upper grade energy crystals in total, ten thousand per chest.
Among them, there were eight thousand gold energy crystals.
Ten thousand wood energy crystals.
Twelve thousand water energy crystals.
Eleven thousand fire energy crystals.
Thirteen thousand earth energy crystals.
Seven thousand wind energy crystals.
Five thousand thunder energy crystals.
Two thousand light energy crystals.
Two thousand dark energy crystals.
There were energy crystals of all nine major attributes, and the quantity varied according to their rarity. The rarest ones were naturally light and dark.
Jin Wanshuang said, "Seventy thousand energy crystals, divided equally among the nine of us. Each of us will get seven thousand seven hundred and seventy-seven crystals. I cultivate metal element Zhen Yuan, and I don't see anyone cultivating metal element Zhen Yuan in the team. Thus, I will take seven thousand seven hundred and seventy-seven metal element crystals."
"I want two thousand dark energy crystals. The rest doesn't matter."
Murong Qingcheng also said.
Ye Chen said, "I don't care about any energy crystals." The Zhen Yuan he cultivated did not contain any attribute, and was the purest Zhen Yuan.
In this way, the distribution was much easier. Among the nine, there weren't many who cultivated attributed Zhen Yuan. Moreover, they didn't overlap, so there was no conflict between them. Ye Chen took a bit of each attributed energy crystal. Even if he didn't cultivate, he could still use these crystals as a form of wealth.
After distributing the energy crystals, there was nothing left in the palace.
"Alright, the distribution is done. Everyone can rest here for a while and heal your injuries."
Jin Wanshuang said.
Among the nine, the one with the heaviest injuries was the cold-faced youngster, followed by Lin Yuxuan. Jin Wanshuang and Shi Shaobao had also suffered some light injuries. The remaining six were not injured, but they needed to replenish their Zhen Yuan. At this moment, time was not pressing, so no one wasted precious pills. Instead, they sat cross-legged to recover their Zhen Yuan.
Half a day later, apart from the cold-faced youngster, everyone had recovered to their peak state.
A day later, the cold-faced young man also stopped healing. His injuries weren't something that could be healed in a short period of time. However, with the help of precious medicinal pills, he was almost fully recovered. He didn't want to waste everyone's time, so he stopped healing.
"Let's go!"
Jin Wanshuang waved his hand and walked out of the palace.
There were two paths outside the palace, one to the left and the other to the right. Everyone chose the path on the right.
Following the path, they gradually arrived at the core of the ruins. The surroundings were filled with layers of buildings, and the atmosphere was gloomy.
Murong Qingcheng suddenly whispered into Ye Chen's ear, "I saw a blurry shadow just now. It wasn't an illusion."
"Oh …" Ye Chen was moved, even ignoring the hot breath that Murong Qingcheng blew into his ear.
While walking, Ye Chen pondered for a while, then said, "I don't know what happened here, but I don't think it was anything good. The fall of the True Water Palace is most likely related to this, and the ruins have become an ominous place."
"Should we tell them?"
Murong Qingcheng asked.
Ye Chen shook his head and said, "Even if we tell them, they will not leave. After all, exploring ruins is a dangerous thing. How could they be scared by a blurry shadow? Telling them now will only make them feel uneasy."
Ye Chen used his soul eyes, so he could naturally see the blurry shadow as well. However, under normal circumstances, he could not sense where the shadow was. Murong Qingcheng was different. She cultivated demon power, and she had the perfect demi demon bloodline, so she was very sensitive to dark things. Among the group, only Murong Qingcheng could sense the shadow watching them.
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Murong Qingcheng nodded.
"Alright, no matter if the shadow is a human or a ghost, it will be exposed one day. At that time, we will act according to the situation." Ye Chen was not too afraid of this kind of evil being. His Destruction Sword Intent and Immortal Sword Intent were not to be trifled with, and were specialized in dealing with formless evil beings.
The road was full of twists and turns, and before long, they had passed through a series of buildings and arrived in front of a magnificent, cold, and dignified tower. The base of this tower was more than ten times the size of an ordinary manor. It was a thousand meters tall and had a total of thirty-three floors. It was like a giant's tower.
This tower was also the tallest building in the ruins.
On the door of the tower's first floor, three words were carved — Mysterious Yin Tower.
"Mysterious Yin Tower … could this ruin be the residence of the True Water Palace's Life and Death King?" Jin Wanshuang guessed.
At its peak, True Water Palace had one titled Monarch and thirteen Life and Death Kings. Its reputation was like a rainbow, like the sun in the midday sky. As a Life and Death King, his position was naturally the most respected. Controlling a faction was nothing out of the ordinary.
"The Mysterious Yin King is already dead. There must be all of his wealth in this tower."
The brother Daer Xiong laughed heartily.
The old man said, "Whether it's Mysterious Yin King or not, we can't be sure. However, the yin qi in this tower is too dense. It's almost the densest place in this ruin. It's very ominous."
"If you're afraid, you can leave. I have to enter this tower no matter what." Daer Ba was the same as his brother, not knowing what fear was.
"This old man has lived for a long time. How could I be afraid of death? I just don't want to die in vain." The old man didn't lower himself to Daer Ba's level.
Lin Yuxuan said at this moment, "The tower contains great treasures. This is eighty to ninety percent certain. I'll definitely go in and take a look. Otherwise, this trip would be a waste."
Lin Yuxuan was also a person with great fortune. The reason why he could have the strength he had today was because he had many fortunes and obtained many treasures. Therefore, in his eyes, the Mysterious Yin Tower was a land of treasures. As for the danger, that was normal. Without danger, there was no value in exploring this place.
"Everyone." As the nominal leader of this team, Jin Wanshuang spoke, "The Mysterious Yin Tower is basically the most valuable place in this ruin, and the reason we came here is also for the treasures. I agree to enter this tower. If there is anyone who doesn't agree, you can wait outside, or you can explore other places on your own."
Jin Wanshuang had made his stance clear. Everyone knew that they had to enter. If they stayed outside, what if they ran into other people? As for exploring other places, it would be even more dangerous if they went alone. After all, everyone could see that this place was not a peaceful place.
Therefore, no matter how dangerous the tower was, entering was an inevitable choice. As for other situations, they could think about it later.
