Just as Uncle Ji said, the Immortal Mansion was just an empty shell. After 200,000 years, the mansion had been opened countless times, and countless cultivators had searched for treasures. No matter how many treasures there were in the mansion, they had all been searched. Plus, the Five Element Cultivator was a righteous and heroic person. Although he had many good things, he had given them to his friends.
Therefore, the only treasures in the Five Elements Immortal Mansion were the ones displayed in the hall.
When Ye Kong opened the treasury of the Five Elements Immortal Mansion and saw the empty scene, Ye Kong realized how difficult it was for Uncle Ji.
He was a little disappointed, but it wasn't because he didn't find any natural treasures or immortal or divine artifacts. In fact, Ye Kong didn't need these treasures. What disappointed him was that he didn't find any top-grade spirit stones!
Normally, top-grade spirit stones weren't useful. Besides, they contained a lot of spiritual energy, so they couldn't have been turned into stones. Even if that was the case, there should be a gray stone, right?
Now that the spirit stones were gone, Ye Kong couldn't find them anywhere in the mansion. Obviously, someone had taken them away! Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that Uncle Ji was afraid that Ye Kong would be in danger, so he hid the spirit stones.
If Uncle Ji had hidden them, he would have hidden them in the Immortal Mansion or the Black Robe. But he didn't have them in either of the two places! The Immortal Mansion was under Ye Kong's complete control. He would know where even a fly was. The Black Robe was based on the third, fourth, and fifth floors of the Immortal Mansion. It was part of the Immortal Mansion, so it couldn't be hidden from Ye Kong.
In the Black Robe Elder's Room, Ye Kong sat alone in the chair in the center. He stared blankly at the white light in the center.
Not so long ago, when he first entered this place, he was still a mere Daoist Master in the Foundation Establishment stage. He looked at this mysterious Devil Sect that was covered in black everywhere with terror … But now, he was already sitting in the Great Elder's seat.
The world was full of vicissitudes, and the future was unpredictable. Ye Kong himself probably wouldn't have believed it if he had told him that this day would come.
The ignorant young man who had been guessing where the Black Robe was had now become the master of this place!
"So the Black Robe is in the Five Elements Immortal Mansion. No wonder the Saint Devil Sect couldn't find the Black Robe no matter how hard they tried." Ye Kong sighed. He retracted his gaze and started thinking about his own matters again.
The supreme-grade spirit stone was gone. Who took it? Where could he find it?
Ye Kong had a headache. The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. Who knew who had taken his spirit stones? The person who took it must have kept quiet out of fear and not made a single sound! Where would he go to find it?
But then he remembered that the Five Elements Immortal Mansion was gone, but the top-quality Spirit Stones of the Devil Faction were still there! Why don't we just go and get that top-grade spirit stone from the devil sect that we pawned?
But after thinking about it, Ye Kong still shook his head. Although Ye seemed reckless, he wouldn't do something so stupid as to die! What was Hu Hailong's father's cultivation level? It was the Great Vehicle Stage! It was Zhen Yi! He was just a True Monarch. The difference of one word was too big.
Even if he now had an Absolute Invisibility Magic Weapon, if he wanted to use it to assassinate Shinichi, then he would still be dreaming. At that time, Hu Ke and Zhen Yi could tolerate him because they knew that he wasn't a threat to them. They didn't want to turn against him … But if Ye Kong really wanted to steal the supreme-grade spirit stone or kill Hu Ke, they probably wouldn't be polite to him.
Just as Ye Kong was sighing, a white light flashed in front of him. A man in black appeared in the elder's room.
Ye Kong didn't wear a mask. The man saw him sitting on the seat of the great elder immediately. The man frowned and snorted, "9527, you are just a temporary elder. How can you sit on the seat of the great elder? Come down quickly. It's fine if I see it, but if others see it, they will have a bad opinion of you. "
Although the man's tone was reproachful, there was no lack of concern in his words. When the man lifted his mask, Ye Kong saw that the man was an elder of Zong Fang.
Ye Kong didn't move and didn't hide anything. He said, "The great elder has passed the position to me. I am the great elder."
Zong Fang frowned again. He pondered for a moment and said, "Then you have to come down!"
"Why?"
Zong Fang sat down next to Ye Kong. He didn't answer Ye Kong. Instead, he asked, "Why didn't the great elder send us a notice about such an important matter … Oh, I don't mean to doubt your words, but there is some truth in it."
Ye Kong froze for a moment and said, "Because the great elder passed away suddenly, there was no time to leave a message. Of course, I can now send a message to everyone as the great elder … "
"No, that's not right." Zong Fang casually waved his hand and interrupted, "The great elder has always been cautious and meticulous in his actions. He would consider all the details. He wouldn't have overlooked such an important point." He let Ye Kong think for a moment before continuing, "The reason why he did this was because he didn't want you to take over the position of great elder now."
"Why?"
"Because your cultivation is too low. You can't convince the masses!" Zong Fang sat up straight and crossed his legs.
My cultivation is too low. I can't convince the masses!
Zong Fang's words shook Ye Kong's heart. Zong Fang was right. The root cause of all troubles was here … my cultivation is too low!
If my cultivation is high enough, the supreme-grade spirit stone left behind by the Five-Elemental Wanderer might appear automatically! If my cultivation is high enough, Hu Ke can only hand over the supreme-grade Fire Spirit Stone obediently! If my cultivation is high enough, all the elders of The Black Robe will acknowledge me!
Now that the second floor of the Mustard Seed Tower has been opened, I should be thinking about increasing my cultivation and not other things!
Thinking up to this point, Ye Kong was suddenly enlightened. He walked down from his seat and bowed to Zong Fang. "Thank you, Elder Zong Fang, for your reminder. Little Ye knows that I was wrong!"
Ye Kong was like this. Wrong was wrong, right was right. Love was love, hate was hate. Black was black, white was white. There were no gray areas or ambiguities. Even if it was just a sentence, he wouldn't be ambiguous with others. He wouldn't argue with others. If he was certain that he was right, no matter how many people tried to persuade him, he wouldn't change his mind. When he discovered a mistake, he would admit it immediately.
Zong Fang finally revealed a smile and said, "You don't have to thank me. If you didn't randomly recall my memories in the Paradise Realm, which actually helped me break through, I wouldn't be saying all this to you." He raised his hand to support Ye Kong and said, "Don't be fooled by the harmonious atmosphere in the Elders Council. Who doesn't want to be the Great Elder? As the Great Elder, you can control others, obtain a lot of benefits, and have priority in obtaining various cultivation resources. Who wouldn't want such a good thing? "
Zong Fang let Ye Kong think for a moment. Then, he changed his tone and said, "It's true that you inherited the Great Elder's position and have the power to use spiritual power to kill people in The Black Robe. But if you rely on this to stabilize your position, what's the point of it? Right now, the sect is very short of manpower. If everyone kills each other, the sect will soon be finished. This is not what the Great Elder wants to see. "
Ye Kong nodded and said, "I understand. In the future, I will focus on cultivation and pretend that the Great Elder is still alive. When my cultivation reaches a certain level, I will come forward to take over this position. However, please keep this matter a secret, Elder Zong Fang. "
Zong Fang laughed and said, "Me? Don't worry. Soon, I will leave this world. Today is the last time I'm here to send a message to everyone. See you in the Immortal World. "
"Ah!" Ye Kong opened his mouth in surprise. Last time, he heard that Zong Fang had broken through to the peak of the Great Vehicle Stage. He didn't expect that he would ascend!
This was not good news for the Black Robe, but it was great news for Zong Fang.
Ye Kong quickly cupped his hands and said, "Then, I wish Elder Zong Fang success in crossing the tribulation and enjoy the Immortal Fate forever."
Zong Fang laughed and said, "I'm leaving. The power of the Black Robe has weakened again. Alas, if we want to drive away the Demon Race …" Zong Fang sighed and shook his head. He touched his storage ring and took out a jade slip. He said, "My magic weapons and treasures have been left to my descendants. After all, I came from the Imperial Lady Demon Sect. I didn't prepare anything, so I'll give you my Forgotten Demonic Technique and my understanding of formations over the years. "
Not many people wanted to practice the Forgotten Demonic Technique, and Ye Kong didn't know how to practice it. But the key was Zong Fang's understanding of formations! The reason why the Saint Devil Sect didn't dare to do anything to the Paradise Realm was mainly because of the countless formations there. It was obvious that the Imperial Lady Demon Sect's strongest point was not just the Imperial Lady, but also the formations!
As the leader of the Paradise Realm's formations, Zong Fang's understanding and understanding of formations were priceless!
Immediately, Ye Kong was endlessly grateful. Zong Fang left a message for the other elders before leaving the Black-clothed Demon Sect to prepare to undergo the tribulation.
Ye Kong didn't stay idle either. Alright, since my cultivation is not good enough, then I don't care about anything else. I'll arrange everything and go cultivate!
The Golden Hall of the Horse Beating Golden Palace was now a lonely grave. In fact, to a true cultivator, prosperity was just like a fleeting cloud. Power, money, riches, women, spirit stones, heavenly treasures, magical tools, and magical treasures were all like fleeting clouds to them. What was most important was life!
Cultivation was second.
Treasures that could increase one's cultivation and lifespan!
This was why defensive magical weapons were more expensive than offensive magical weapons! Because they could save one's life!
Why were the pills that could strengthen one's foundation the most expensive? Because they could increase one's cultivation speed!
After understanding this, Ye Kong didn't let other things bother him. He left the Pipa Bead and used the Black Robe token to return to his small room. Then, he used the teleportation service to return to the Hunyuan Sect! Just like that, he brought the Five Elements Immortal Mansion back to the Hunyuan Sect.
This time, Ye Kong did not go out for a long time, and only spent a little more than three months. When he returned to the sect, he brought his wife and mother into the Pipa Pearl. Looking at such a majestic and domineering Immortal Mansion, all the women were in high spirits, and those treasures that were used as a facade were also divided among them.
In addition, Ye Kong gave each of them a Black Robe token. Although they couldn't use it in the immortal mansion, they could use it outside the immortal mansion. This way, they could enter and exit the Pipa Bead freely.
After arranging all these, Ye Kong finally walked to the second floor of the Mustard Seed Tower!
