Other than his appearance, the weapon spirit could not see through the thin old man's cultivation. This was also a big anomaly! When he appeared in the valley, Gu Zheng did not notice him in advance. This was also a big anomaly!
The most important thing was that Gu Zheng was certain that the thin old man was related to the Void Sect! What was the Void Sect for? To put it bluntly, the Void Sect was a den of thieves. Thieves were most proficient in some of their methods, causing Gu Zheng to suspect that the thin and weak old man and Lu Piao Xiang being able to appear here was completely due to them hitching a ride!
Lu Piaoxiang quickly appeared in front of Gu Zheng. She was still as graceful as ever even after not seeing her for a while.
Lu Piaoxiang smiled and bowed towards Gu Zheng: "Fellow Daoist Bai, how have you been?"
"I've been fine. How about Fellow Daoist Lu?" Gu Zheng smiled and returned Lu Piaoxiang's greeting.
"Not too good. The journey to the treasure trove has been difficult." Lu Piaoxiang shook her head and smiled bitterly.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, did you follow us to this treasure trove?"
Gu Zheng suddenly asked as he stared at Lu Piaoxiang with a sharp gaze.
Lu Piaoxiang did not expect Gu Zheng to suddenly ask this question. She was stunned for a moment and the trace of hesitation in her eyes did not escape Gu Zheng's eyes.
"Since Fellow Daoist Bai has guessed it, I won't hide it anymore. We did follow Fellow Daoist Bai here."
"You little girl!"
Following Lu Piaoxiang's regretful voice, Feng Weikong's complaining voice also sounded.
"Following you doesn't mean anything. After the treasure trove appeared, many people who did not know about the treasure trove also came here." Feng Weikong chuckled.
"No, what does this mean?! For you to follow us, you already owe us a favor. The treasure inside the Corpse Tree should also be given to us! "Gu Zheng said.
"Fellow Daoist Bai is right. This treasure trove should be given to you!"
"Little girl, this is a treasure trove, not an ingredient you gave away at the auction!"
Following Lu Piaoxiang's voice, Feng Weikong's face was filled with pain.
"Uncle Kong!"
Lu Piaoxiang helplessly called out.
"Alright, alright, do as you wish!"
Feng Wekong's voice was also filled with helplessness.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, it just so happens that there are two portions of the treasure. How about we take one each?" Lu Piao Xiang asked.
Although the Corpse Tree had not completely dissolved, it was no longer like when it was still alive, when its body could block the probing of Divine Sense. Everyone already knew that there were two big treasure chests inside the Corpse Tree.
"Sure," Gu Zheng said.
"Both treasure chests can block the probing of Divine Sense, so no one knows what's inside. I suggest that we each pick one. Regardless of the value of the items inside, this matter will end here. How about that?"
Lu Piao Xiang once again sought Gu Zheng's opinion, causing Feng Wei Kong to let out a displeased snort.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, the treasure chest contains information about the treasures on the third floor. No matter how the other items are distributed, we must obtain this information!" Fang Xing transmitted his voice to Gu Zheng.
"I know," Gu Zheng replied.
"What? Was this not enough? Do they still need to discuss this through voice transmission? Or perhaps you're plotting something? No matter what you're plotting, we can give you a portion of the treasure, but we have the right to choose first. This is unquestionable! "Feng Wei Kong sneered.
"Ai!"
Lu Piao Xiang sighed. He looked at Gu Zheng and then at the sky. He didn't even look at her Wind Is Empty.
No matter what, Lu Piao Xiang gave Gu Zheng a good feeling. Gu Zheng did not want to make things difficult for her, so he said, "Alright, you can choose first from the treasure chests!"
"Fellow Daoist Bai, what if they choose the jade slip with the information about the third floor's hidden treasures?" Fang Xing transmitted his voice again.
"Let's wait until they choose first!"
They could not see what kind of Artifact Spirit was inside the treasure chest. Gu Zheng did not believe that Feng Wei Kong was so resourceful that he already knew what was inside the treasure chest.
Sure enough, Feng Wei Kong was not so confident. He first used his arts to take out the two treasure chests from the Corpse Tree, then looked at Lu Piao Xiang and said, "Girl, choose one!"
Lu Piao Xiang bit her lip and pointed at a treasure chest, saying, "I'll choose this one!"
Feng Wei Kong was not in a hurry to take the treasure chest. Instead, he looked at Gu Zheng and said, "Kid, I still have something to say!"
"Speak," Gu Zheng said.
"Although I don't want a single item from your treasure chest, I still want to know what's inside your treasure chest!" Feng Wei Kong said.
"If that's what you want, then we also want to know what's inside your treasure chest!" Fang Xing said.
"Alright! As long as you're not afraid of regret! "Feng Wei Kong grinned at Fang Xing.
"If you're not afraid, what are we afraid of?" Fang Xing did not want to be taken advantage of.
"Hehe."
Feng Weikong smiled and opened the treasure chests that belonged to them.
Gu Zheng only glanced at the items in other people's treasure chests. After all, those items belonged to others. However, Fang Xing was obviously not satisfied. After seeing the items in the other people's treasure chests, he gritted his teeth so hard that they creaked.
Gu Zheng also opened his own treasure chest. There were many useful items inside, but Gu Zheng's main goal was a few jade scrolls.
After looking through the jade scrolls one by one, Gu Zheng let out a long sigh of relief. The jade scrolls that recorded the information about the third floor's hidden treasure were with them. This would save him the trouble of finding another way if it was not with them.
On Lu Piao Xiang's side, they also looked through the jade scrolls immediately. However, a trace of helplessness appeared on Lu Piao Xiang's face.
"Kid, is the jade scrolls that recorded the information about the third floor's hidden treasure with you?" Feng Wei Kong asked.
"How do you know all this?"
Gu Zheng narrowed his eyes. Logically speaking, Feng Wei Kong and Lu Piao Xiang had followed them here. Even if they knew about the hidden treasure, they should not know that the information about the hidden treasure was hidden in the jade scrolls! Could it be that they had been under his' meticulous' surveillance all this time? If that was really the case, then it was too infuriating.
Seeing Gu Zheng's unfriendly gaze, Lu Piao Xiang hurriedly said, "Fellow Daoist Bai, actually, I know some unknown things about the Quasi-Sage's treasure that you speak of."
"Oh?"
Gu Zheng indicated for Lu Piao Xiang to continue.
"The reason why the first small treasure appeared in Luxia Town was not a coincidence. It was because the Thousand Corpse Old Devil was originally from Luxia Town. His surname was Lu and his name was Chun Qiu. He was my ancestor!"
Lu Piao Xiang's light words caused Gu Zheng and the others to widen their eyes. This was something that they had never expected.
Seeing Gu Zheng and the others' shock, Lu Piao Xiang continued, "Although my ancestor had descendants, he did not pass down the things that he wanted to pass down the most to his descendants. He wanted to find another descendant with great luck. However, he also revealed some information about the hidden treasure to his descendants. "
"Then why did Fellow Daoist Lu come this time?" Gu Zheng hesitated.
Lu Piao Xiang understood what Gu Zheng wanted to ask. She shook her head with a smile and said, "I came here with two goals. One is to find some treasures. The second is to destroy my ancestor's inheritance if possible. After all, those things are harmful."
Gu Zheng agreed with Lu Piao Xiang's actions. Therefore, although he did not say anything, he still nodded his head.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, why don't we work together? The Skull Palace is filled with danger. If we work together, it will greatly increase our safety. "
"Girl!"
"No!"
Almost as soon as Lu Piao Xiang finished speaking, Feng Weikong's unhappy voice and Fang Xing's determined voice sounded at the same time.
"Forget about working together. Did following that Old Man cause you to get hurt? You even want to increase our safety! "
Feng Weikong glared at Lu Piao Xiang, as if blaming her for 'favoring an outsider'.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, I don't like this old man! Although Fellow Daoist Lu is not bad, if I work together with this old man, I will definitely not be able to sleep at night. I have to be on guard against him at all times! "Fang Xing transmitted his voice to Gu Zheng.
"I appreciate Fellow Daoist Lu's good intentions. However, since there are people on both sides who don't agree, then let's forget about it!" Gu Zheng said.
"Alright!" Lu Piao Xiang was slightly regretful.
"Brat, I want to make a deal with you!" Feng Weikong said again.
"What kind of deal?" Gu Zheng asked.
"I want to exchange for one of the things you obtained!"
Feng Weikong pointed at the treasure that Gu Zheng and the others had not put away. The thing he was pointing at was a jade tablet.
The jade tablet looked very simple. There were many tiny white dots in the black jade, like the stars in the night sky.
The jade tablet was not an ornament, nor was it an immortal item. It was something related to space. It could be used to set up immortal transfer formations or to travel between planes.
"I'm not exchanging!"
Fang Xing was the first to speak. Then, he looked at Gu Zheng and said: "Fellow Daoist Bai, this spatial immortal jade is useful to me."
"Brat, you seem to dislike me!" Feng Weikong squinted his eyes and said to Fang Xing.
"It's not that I dislike you. It's just that I have a use for this thing!" Fang Xing said indifferently.
"Hehe."
Feng Weikong laughed: "Everything has a value. I don't believe that I can't exchange for this thing."
"I'll use it to exchange for this spatial immortal jade. Are you exchanging for it?"
The thing that was swaying in Feng Weikong's hand was a piece of clothing as thin as a cicada's wing. The strong immortal energy fluctuation on it made people understand that it was a high grade immortal item.
Clothing type immortal items were defensive immortal items. Compared to offensive immortal items, it was much rarer. To Fang Xing, who did not have any clothing type immortal items, it was extremely attractive.
"Are you exchanging for it or not? If you miss this opportunity, you won't get another one! "Feng Weikong said.
Although the spatial immortal jade was precious, its value was far from the clothing in front of him. This made Fang Xing, who said that he would not exchange for it, swallow his saliva awkwardly.
"Exchange!" Fang Xing gritted his teeth.
"Haha!"
Feng Weikong laughed loudly. After throwing the clothing to Fang Xing, he kept the spatial immortal jade on the ground.
"What do you want the spatial immortal jade for? To set up a teleportation immortal array? "Gu Zheng asked casually.
Feng Weikong did not expect Gu Zheng to ask him such a question. After being stunned for a moment, he rolled his eyes and said: "Why do you care!"
"Hehe."
Gu Zheng only smiled on the surface. In his heart, he said to the artifact spirit: "This guy might not be Jin Xian's cultivation. Maybe his cultivation is already Daluo Jinxian's!"
"What?" The artifact spirit was stunned.
"Back then at the auction in Luxia Town, didn't he snatch something? That thing is the spatial immortal stone that can be used for spatial positioning! Now, he used a high grade immortal item to exchange for a spatial immortal jade. Just now when I was testing him, the flicker in his eyes also seemed to be a lie! Then someone who can use these two items should be Daluo Jinxian's cultivation. "Gu Zheng said.
"That's possible. After all, Jin Xian's cultivation realm doesn't need the spatial immortal jade to cross planes."
The artifact spirit paused for a moment before continuing: "But if he really has the strength of Daluo Jinxian, then he shouldn't need your help to deal with the corpse tree!"
"Who knows! There might be many reasons. For example, his true strength is also his trump card, so he doesn't want to reveal it easily. Or maybe Daluo Jinxian's cultivation realm is unstable, so he can't easily use the power of that realm. "Gu Zheng said.
"Fellow Bai, since we can't cooperate, then we'll take our leave!" Lu Piaoxiang said.
"Fellow Lu, take care!"
Gu Zheng nodded at Lu Piaoxiang and watched them leave the valley.
"Now that there are no outsiders, let's split the treasures!"
After Gu Zheng finished speaking, he began to take inventory of the treasures on the ground.
It has to be said that the treasures hidden in the second floor are really rich! Although Lu Piaoxiang and the others took one of the treasure chests, the total value of the treasures in Gu Zheng's treasure chest is much better than the treasures in the treasure chest obtained from killing the ancient giant worm.
Among them, there are a total of two offensive high grade immortal items. One is a simple looking halberd, the other is a wolf tooth club. Both are heavy grade immortal items.
There are also two auxiliary high grade immortal items. One is a pair of bronze knee guards, the other is a ring that looks like a cat's eye stone.
In addition to the four high grade immortal items, there is also a top grade immortal item among the treasures obtained this time. However, this top grade immortal item is actually a demonic item. If one doesn't cultivate a domineering demonic technique, they can't control it at all.
In addition to the immortal item, there is also a set of array tools among the treasures.
No one knew what kind of array a Formation Artifact could create before it recognized its owner. However, the immortal power emitted by the array tools is very strong, and its grade is not inferior to the Immortal Trapping Array that Gu Zheng destroyed. Huang Qi and the others also said that this set of array tools should be Gu Zheng's. After all, when he killed the ancient giant worm, the Immortal Trapping Array was completely destroyed.
As for the ingredients that are most useful to Gu Zheng, there are naturally a lot of them in the treasure chest. There are more than 40 high grade ingredients, and there is also an immortal grade ingredient that is extremely difficult to find in the outside world!
In addition, there is no lack of elixirs among the treasures obtained from the trip to the Skull Palace. Among them, the largest number is the Immortal Essence Pill. However, the Immortal Essence Pills he had obtained before were all Medium Immortal Essence Pills. However, in this treasure chest, there were Excellent Immortal Essence Pills and High Immortal Essence Pills. There were 150 and 30 of them respectively.
After taking inventory of the treasures, Gu Zheng and the others began to distribute the treasures.
As expected, the array tools went to Gu Zheng. In addition, he also received the immortal grade ingredient, some high grade ingredients, the ring of the high grade immortal item, and some immortal essence pills.
Fang Xing asked for the high grade immortal item leg guards, the top grade demonic item, and a variety of other resources.
Originally, Huang Qi and Yang Jue were going to take a small part of the distribution, but Gu Zheng didn't really do it that way. One of them received the high grade immortal item halberd, the other received the high grade immortal item spiked club, and a portion of other resources. Overall, the treasures that Huang Qi and Yang Jue received were not much less than Gu Zheng and the others.
In addition to distributing the treasures in the treasure chests, Gu Zheng and the others also distributed the resources in the storage belts of the Heavenly Profound Sect members. It had to be said that the Heavenly Profound Sect's people's storage belts were also very rich in resources. Gu Zheng and the others had all received quite a bit. However, compared to the treasures in the treasure chests, the resources in the Heavenly Profound Sect's people's storage belts were not worth mentioning.
"Now that the treasures have been distributed, let's leave this place?"
Fang Xing looked at everyone with a smile, his face full of joy after the harvest.
"Okay, but after leaving here, Fellow Huang Qi and I will have to part ways with you two." Yang Jue sighed.
"No hurry, let's stay here for a day before leaving." Gu Zheng said.
"Stay for a day?" Fang Xing didn't understand.
"Yes!"
Gu Zheng paused and then said, "Although Lu Piao Xiang and the others know about the hidden treasures on the third floor, our own problems are more important than the treasures! I won't be able to use my Immortal Domain for a day. Without the Immortal Domain to rely on, if we really run into trouble, it will be really troublesome! "
Hearing Gu Zheng's words, Fang Xing, who didn't understand the Immortal Domain, finally understood. Thus, the group stayed in the hidden treasures on the second floor for about a day.
The exit to the second floor was in the stone maze. Gu Zheng and the others didn't run into any danger when they left, so they returned to the second floor through the exit.
"Fellow Bai, after the trip to the Skeleton Palace, will you still go to Luxia Town?"
"If Fellow Bai is still going to Luxia Town, Fellow Huang Qi and I will wait for you at the Misty Tavern. Let's have a good gathering!"
Huang Qi and Yang Jue said as they were about to leave.
"After this trip, I probably won't be returning to Luxia Town."
Gu Zheng smiled and turned to leave. "All good things must come to an end. Take care, Fellow Daoists!"
Looking at Gu Zheng and Fang Xing's disappearing figures, Huang Qi and Yang Jue sighed and set off as well.
The cave where the hidden treasures were on the second floor wasn't too far away from the entrance to the third floor. Based on Gu Zheng and Fang Xing's speed, as long as they didn't run into any trouble, it would take them about half an incense stick's worth of time to reach the cave.
"Fellow Daoist Bai, do you have any plans after reaching the third floor?" Fang Xing asked.
"Although there are a few good places on the third floor, there are more and more people in the hidden treasures now. We're not the only ones who know about the hidden treasures. Thus, I feel that after reaching the third floor, we should give up on the few places we wanted to go and go straight to the hidden treasures," Gu Zheng said.
"Fellow Daoist Bai's words are reasonable. However, we've already wasted a lot of time in the hidden treasures. If we don't take a look at the good places on the way and find that there's nothing there when we reach the hidden treasures, that would be a huge loss." Fang Xing smiled bitterly.
Gu Zheng shook his head. "We'll waste time on the way, but it's very likely that others will as well. Moreover, I feel that we haven't wasted too much time, so it's better to go straight to the hidden treasures. "
Fang Xing was silent for a moment before he spoke again. "Fellow Daoist Bai, it's a pity to give up on all the good places on the way! How about this! Let's go to one of the few places on the third floor. If there's nothing there, then we won't waste too much time. If there's still treasure there, then we'll make a fortune from it first! This way, even if we don't find anything in the hidden treasures, it won't be a huge loss! "
