The cave was filled with the fragrance of medicinal herbs and spiritual energy. There were also golden butterflies dancing in the air, sprinkling down rays of light. It made people feel like they had arrived at an immortal's cave.
Ye Xuan did not enter the abode immediately. Instead, he observed from the outside. His eyes flickered, and runes appeared in the depths of his pupils as he analyzed the abode.
Perhaps it was because the owner of the cave was too confident in his own cultivation or formations, but Ye Xuan didn't find any traces of formations in the cave.
Entering the cave, Ye Xuan found that the cave's layout was very elegant. There was a fake mountain, a pond, a pavilion, and a garden.
"Is this a blue lotus in the pond?!" Walking to the edge of the pond, he saw a blue lotus in full bloom. The spiritual energy in the water was dense and the lotus flickered with a faint blue light. The stem was also emitting a silver-white luster. It looked very extraordinary.
Ye Xuan had seen records of this kind of blue lotus in some of Shi Yunfeng's bone books. It was said that this kind of blue lotus had absorbed divine essence and mutated into a lotus. It was a rare treasure.
He didn't expect it to be planted in the pond by someone in this cave. It seemed like it was only used for ornamental purposes.
Pa!!!
At this moment, there was a splash in the pond. A four to five feet long fish with the head of a Qilin and a body covered in golden scales leaped out of the lake. It opened its mouth wide and bit towards the blue lotus.
However, when the large fish was about to approach the blue lotus, the lotus petal suddenly erupted with a dazzling silver light. It was like a shield that blocked the large fish, causing it to fall back into the water with a plop.
"Golden Qilin Fish?" Seeing the fish fall back into the water, Ye Xuan couldn't help raising his brows.
He had seen it in Shi Yunfeng's bone books. It was said that the Golden Qilin Fish had a strand of Qilin blood that contained divine essence. Any one of them could allow an ordinary person to strengthen their bones and increase their strength by several thousand pounds, allowing them to reach the Blood Transformation realm in one step. It was a rare treasure.
"An ordinary-looking pond actually has a blue lotus and a Golden Scale Fish. It seems the owner of this grotto-mansion was not a simple character," Ye Xuan muttered to himself.
However, he wasn't in a hurry to pluck the Blue Lotus and catch the Golden Unicorn Fish. Since even an ordinary pond had such treasures, then the other places must also be extraordinary.
Moreover, he didn't know if there was any danger in this abode, so he wouldn't let a little benefit go to his head.
Leaving the pond, Zhang Xuan continued deeper into the forest. There was an artificial mountain that was as black as ink. It was extremely craggy, resembling a dragon, a tiger, and a tortoise at the same time. It emanated a bizarre aura that seemed capable of devouring one's soul.
After passing the fake mountain, there was a garden inside. The flowers in the garden were all dazzling, and there were countless strange species. Even Shi Yunfeng's bone books had very few records of them.
In the garden, there was a pavilion with a stone table and stone chairs. There was also a board of chess, and the chess pieces emitted a faint radiance. With a single glance, one could tell that they were made of special materials.
Behind the garden, there was a medicinal field that emitted a rich medicinal fragrance. The medicinal field was enshrouded in spiritual energy, and divine multicolored lights danced about. Essence energy surged, and above it, there was a Golden Medicine Butterfly that was fluttering about. It sprinkled down waves of radiance onto the medicinal field.
"Purple Gold Ginseng, White Jade Ginseng, Half Ginseng Fruit, Star Grass, Hound Leaf Vine, Silver Feather Grass, Black Jade Lotus …" Looking at the medicinal field, there were many stalks of spirit medicines and treasured medicines. There were at least several dozen of them. Some only had one or two stalks, while others had seven or eight stalks. It was just too shocking.
If outsiders were to find out about the number of spirit medicines in the medicinal field, perhaps even a supreme expert would be tempted. After all, even a supreme expert would not be able to have so many spirit medicines.
In the outside world, normally, the spirit medicines and treasured medicines in a medicinal field could only grow one stalk from a spirit mountain. Even that would exhaust the spirit energy of a spirit mountain. However, there were hundreds of stalks of spirit medicines in this medicinal field. It was truly terrifying.
Suddenly, Ye Xuan saw that in the depths of the medicinal field, there was a pond that was less than two meters wide. There were ripples of light in the pond, and the spiritual energy condensed into a dense fog. Strands of divine aura filled the air.
And in this pond, there was only a single lotus. This lotus was silvery white, and it flickered with brilliance. It was rooted in the divine liquid that was filled with divine aura.
"This, could it be the Soul-drawing Lotus?!!!" Looking at this silvery lotus, Ye Xuan was shocked.
This was a legendary divine medicine. According to what he learned from Shi Yunfeng's bone book, the Soul-drawing Lotus was a divine medicine. Even Heavenly Gods would flock to it.
The reason for this was that even if a person's Yuan Shen was broken, as long as they consumed the Soul-drawing Lotus, they could be reborn.
The Yuan Shen was the foundation of a cultivator. Once the Yuan Shen was broken, it was equivalent to death. However, this Soul-drawing Lotus could regenerate a person's Yuan Shen even if it was broken. It was equivalent to giving a person an extra life. Not to mention Heavenly Gods, even stronger experts would be tempted by it.
However, it was a pity that the Soul-drawing Lotus in the pond was clearly not ripe yet. The bud had just emerged, and it might take a few more years for it to ripen.
It was said that for a Soul-drawing Lotus to ripen, it needed around ten years. Before it ripened, it could not regenerate a person's Yuan Shen.
However, the bud of this Soul-drawing Lotus was only the size of a baby's fist. For it to ripen, it did not need ten years, but three to five years was necessary.
"What is this place? Even the Soul-drawing Lotus has appeared? " Ye Xuan was not blinded by the treasures. Looking at the Soul-drawing Lotus in the middle of the field, he could not help but raise his eyebrows. "Is this a divine dwelling?"
Holding back his excitement, even though there were hundreds of spiritual medicines and a divine medicine in the field, Ye Xuan did not barge in. Instead, he continued to walk forward.
After walking past the field, he saw the end of the dwelling.
The end of the dwelling was still made of Diamond Rock. However, on the mountain-like wall, there was a cave that went deep inside. Looking from the outside, it was pitch-black and he could not see what was inside.
"Hmm? There's a formation here? " Seeing that he could not see through the cave, Ye Xuan raised his eyebrows. Then, two rays of golden light shot out from his eyes. Formation after formation began to take shape, trying to break the formation in front of the cave.
"I see. It's a Five Elements Reversal Protection Formation. Fortunately, the bone book also had this formation. Otherwise, if I wanted to break it by myself, I would need at least a month."
"Break!!!"
According to the records on the formation book that flew out of the Supreme God Treasure, Ye Xuan quickly found the flaw of the formation. Numerous runes lit up in his hand, and like carved gold, they shot into the formation.
Bo!!!
