Ye Liusu also discovered that a mysterious smile had suddenly appeared on Li Qingshan's face as she hurried along silently. Countless guesses immediately ran through her head, but she was unable to guess why Li Qingshan was happy.
The abundance of items in the hundred treasures pouch had completely exceeded Li Qingshan's expectations. Let alone the various high level pills, just the spiritual stones alone made him overjoyed.
As the sect master of the Pheasant's Grace mountain, the Golden Pheasant Elder's hundred treasures pouch stored all the resources of the entire mountain. These resources were not for him alone, but for the development of the entire sect. After who knew how many generations of accumulation, they all ended up in Li Qingshan's hands.
Apart from the spiritual stones and pills, there were also large quantities of spiritual herbs, such as three-hundred-year-old Dragon's Tongue and five-hundred-year-old Snowheart Orchid. Every single one of them was worth several thousand spiritual stones.
It was impossible for regular Foundation Establishment cultivators to possess them if they did not possess a sect with a deep foundation. Even if they bought them, they would immediately refine them into pills. It was impossible for them to be stored in a hundred treasures pouch.
Because the Pheasant's Grace mountain used the Golden Pheasant's plume as their weapon, there were not a lot of spiritual artifacts, but there were three supreme grade spiritual artifacts.
A sword with a cloud pattern, a piece of bright yellow embroidery, and a small celadon bottle.
Although Li Qingshan did not know what they were, he liked them when he saw how they glowed. In particular, the small bottle seemed rather familiar. Suddenly, he remembered. Wasn't this the one that had been sold for almost ten thousand spiritual stones in the auction below the Green Vine mountain in the past?
The functions of the small bottle had been introduced in detail during the auction. Regular water could be converted into spiritual water. Whether it was used for refining pills, forging artifacts, or watering spiritual herbs, it was extremely beneficial.
Out of the three spiritual artifacts, only this item showed signs of being refined. The sword with the cloud pattern and the piece of bright yellow embroidery remained untouched.
When the Golden Pheasant Elder fought as a golden pheasant, he could not split his attention to control the spiritual artifacts, so he did not refine the two spiritual artifacts. His Golden Pheasant's plume was the most powerful spiritual artifact. However, before Li Qingshan's overwhelming power, even if he had another supreme grade spiritual artifact, it would not be enough. However, aside from that, he did not find any legendary arcane artifacts.
Apart from that, he did not find any legendary arcane artifacts. This was not strange. The number of arcane artifacts in the world was not as plentiful as spiritual artifacts. Every magic artifact possessed astonishing power. This also meant that it was extremely difficult to refine. Usually, only large clans and sects would have them, and they were rarely circulated in the market. Foundation Establishment cultivators usually used supreme-grade spiritual tools.
And even if there was a sale, the Golden Pheasant Elder would not spend an astronomical price to buy an arcane artifact. The world was at peace, so there was very little fighting. In particular, cultivators above Foundation Establishment would not necessarily have the opportunity to fight someone even once in a decade. What's the point of buying it? If the vial was not a spiritual artifact that assisted cultivation, the three elders would not have fought over it.
Li Qingshan was already satisfied with these three supreme-grade spiritual weapons. Especially that celadon bottle. It was good to store some spiritual water for bathing.
There were also some shiny metal ores. Li Qingshan guessed they were materials for forging artifacts. He had never learned how to forge artifacts, so he did not know what they were called. However, just from the glow they gave off, he could tell they were valuable. They must have been used to forge Golden Pheasant's plume.
Speaking of which, he had obtained a large handful of Golden Pheasant's plume as well. They should also be supreme grade spiritual artifacts, and they came in a set. They were supreme grade among supreme grade spiritual artifacts. Unfortunately, he needed to practise the cultivation method of the Pheasant's Grace mountain to use them. There was a complete set of the Golden Pheasant's Method of the Dawn in his hundred treasures pouch, but it was impossible for Li Qingshan to practise it.
Afterwards, he opened up the Lone Grave Elder's coffin. The items inside still left Li Qingshan surprised.
What greeted his eyes was a tremendous number of corpses. There were corpses of all kinds, male, female, old, and young. Some had been refined, while others were in their original state. They were hideous and terrifying like a living hell.
The Burial Mound mountain used the art of refining corpses as its foundation. Corpses were their most important resource. They were both consumables and necessities. In order to obtain these corpses, who knew how many graves the disciples of the Burial Mound mountain had dug up.
Li Qingshan took out the spiritual stones and pills and placed them into the Golden Pheasant Elder's hundred treasures pouch. Afterwards, he passed the Lone Grave Elder's hundred treasures pouch to Little Ann. "This is for you." There were also the Lone Grave Elder's bone staff and bronze band, two supreme grade spiritual artifacts. Both of them gave off a sinister aura and were related to refining corpses. He had no use for them either.
After splitting the spoils, Li Qingshan stood up and stretched. He laughed aloud. "Let's go into secluded cultivation again!"
This time, his target was the third layer of the Spirit Turtle's Method of Sea Suppression. That way, he could perfectly suppress the daemon qi of the ox demon and tiger demon, just in case he gave himself away when he reached the third layer of the tiger demon.
Little Ann's eyes shone brightly. She had another plan in mind. After undergoing the heavenly tribulation, her cultivation had increased drastically, but she had also reached a new bottleneck. Without sufficient comprehension, she could not increase her cultivation of the Path of White Bone and Great Beauty through the essence of her flesh and blood alone.
However, she just happened to be able to continue refining Skull Prayer Beads. If nothing went wrong, she would be able to gather twelve beads into a string and forge her first white bone spiritual artifact, no, arcane artifact.
When the two of them were filled with ambition, they looked at Milliped again. He had already fallen asleep, coiled up on the stone platform and stretching out bit by bit. He seemed very comfortable. He would never know what ambition was. All he knew was that he could finally lie down here and sleep again.
Li Qingshan sat down and took out a handful of pills, shoving them into his mouth. His mind gradually sank, entering a state of unconsciousness.
However, he had no idea that his actions on the Green Vine mountain had already kicked up a huge uproar in the cultivation world.
At the centre of the uproar, Yu Shukuang and the disciples of the Green Vine mountain scattered and fled down the mountain.
Gazing back at the misty mountain in the distance and seeing that no one was pursuing him, Yu Shukuang finally stopped worrying. He sat down on the ground and gasped for air. He had lived a life of the jianghu where blood flowed from the tip of his blade. Originally, he thought he had nothing to fear anymore, but when the scarlet eyes glanced at him, he almost rolled down the mountain in fright. Without the slightest doubt, if the blade landed, he would have been a dead man already.
The righteous path of cultivation was like how monkeys scatter when the tree falls. Under Li Qingshan's pressure, the disciples of the Green Vine mountain scattered in all directions, afraid that Li Qingshan would catch up to them and kill them all.
Yu Shukuang looked around. Only Yu Lian remained by his side.
"Foster father, where do we go now?" Yu Lian remained gentle, but he had become much steadier. He was originally Yu Shukuang's trusted disciple. After he gained a foothold on the Green Vine mountain, he had brought him to the Green Vine mountain as well. It was no longer suitable for them to be master and disciple, so Yu Lian accepted Yu Shukuang as his foster father.
Yu Shukuang said, "We can't stay on the Green Vine mountain any longer anyway. This isn't a good place. Who knows when daemons will attack again. With our cultivations, we'll be at the mercy of others. Why don't we return to the Proud Sword manor?"
After two years of arduous cultivation coupled with the tremendous resources provided by the Green Vine mountain, he had also reached the fourth layer, while Yu Lian had reached the second layer. They had both achieved major breakthroughs in their lives. Although they had both achieved major breakthroughs in their lives, they were still at the very bottom of the cultivation world. Even if they were tied together, they would not be able to withstand a single slash.
"If daemons launch a large-scale attack, the Proud Sword manor probably won't be safe either. There's a tunnel leading underground outside the city. Why don't we go to Clear River city and seek refuge with junior sister?" Yu Lian thought of something and said.
"About this …" Yu Shukuang found it rather embarrassing to seek refuge with his daughter as a father.
"Junior brother Yu is right. Don't hesitate anymore, brother Yu. I plan on going to Clear River city as well." Diao Fei emerged from behind a large tree. His cultivation had already reached the sixth layer, and he had split open a sea of qi in his dantian. If he reported this to commander Wang, he would have the right to earn a position as a Scarlet Wolf guard.
"First senior brother, you're here too!" Yu Shukuang was overjoyed. Although he knew Diao Fei would not be able to block a single strike from the daemon, he still felt slightly safer.
The two of them had met two years ago. Although they were not exactly close friends, they had become acquainted with each other.
Yu Shukuang respected Diao Fei's outstanding cultivation. Diao Fei knew Yu Shukuang had a daughter called Yu Zijian, who cultivated in the Hundred Schools of Thought. With her Pure Yang body, she was highly regarded by the leader of the school of Daoism, so he dared not slight her.
"How terrifying!" Diao Fei sighed. After reaching the sixth layer and becoming the first senior brother of the Green Vine mountain, he felt rather elated and complacent. Only after witnessing the unparalleled power tonight did he understand that he was just a slightly larger shrimp in the cultivation world with his meager cultivation. Diao Fei sighed again.
Yu Shukuang agreed with him and sighed with him.
"What do you think, brother Yu? Let's go together. We can look after each other in Clear River city. " Diao Fei had heard that Yu Zijian was familiar with the Hua family. If there were any changes to the situation, he could ask her to mediate between them.
Seeing Diao Fei, Yu Shukuang suddenly thought of a person. This was the common topic of conversation between the two of them in the past.
I can't seek refuge with Zijian, but I can seek refuge with him!
That's right. The person Yu Shukuang thought of was Li Qingshan. It was all because of Li Qingshan's assistance that he was able to reach where he was today. He could be regarded as half of Li Qingshan's subordinate. If he sought refuge with Li Qingshan, it would not be embarrassing. He had heard that he was doing quite well in the Hundred Schools of Thought right now.
If he knew that the person who had scared him off was Li Qingshan, who knew what his expression would be like.
"Alright, let's go right now!"
… …
"Are you telling the truth?"
After listening to Diao Fei's story, Wang Pushi's eyebrows furrowed into a knot. A Daemon General had actually killed the three elders. It was unbelievable no matter how he thought about it. With how crafty the three old coots were, even if they could not defeat him, could they not escape?
Then he looked at Diao Fei. There was not a single wound on him. If the Daemon General was so arrogant and powerful, why would he leave them alive? As a result, he asked another question.
"It's completely true. If you don't believe me, commander, there are two other junior brothers who came with me. The other seniors and juniors have all seen it too. I believe it will spread before long. Please make a decision soon, commander."
"Come with me!" Wang Pushi leapt up from his chair. Recently, the conflict between the humans and daemons had become more and more intense. It was not just limited to the Clear River city, nor was it limited to the Ruyi commandery. Instead, the entire Green province was filled with the flames of war.
However, he had never heard of a Daemon General killing Foundation Establishment cultivators like this, and he had killed three of them in a single go. If it was true, then it would be a huge matter. He had to report it to commander Gu immediately and ask her to make a decision soon.
