Zhang Yu spent about half a day and only stopped when he reached the twelfth floor. During this time, he found two more items that contained Origin Energy.
He had already seen one-third of the treasures in the underground vault. However, no one was allowed to stay for long at night, so it was time for him to return.
If everything went smoothly, he would be able to explore the entire underground vault of Yan Tai Academy in two or three days.
However, he felt that according to this trend, there would be more to gain later, but it wouldn't be too much.
However, among such a large number of ancient items, there were only a few that had Origin Energy. This situation was a little strange, especially since he did not see any items related to EsGod. This meant that these items had been moved away by someone.
He once again thought of the treasures sealed by the two residences. Perhaps to him, those items were the most valuable.
As he pondered, he returned to the eagle statue and looked up. The Golden Ring of Sealing was still there.
He dared to leave this item here because he was not afraid that someone would take it away. There was some Purple Star Sand on it, so without his permission, no one could touch it.
After such a long time, the Origin Energy on the eagle statue had been completely absorbed.
At this moment, his eyes flashed slightly, and he saw a figure about half the size of a human walking up from above. It bounced around the statue twice, but it looked like it wanted to touch the Golden Ring of Sealing but didn't dare to. In the end, it turned around and bounced away.
He could see that this thing did not have a body, only a fleeting shadow. After thinking for a while, he more or less knew what it was.
This should be the legendary "Old Spirit", a kind of spiritual creature that was hidden in ancient objects. It was not harmful to humans, but it would be attracted to ancient objects. It must have sensed the Gold Sealing Bracelet earlier, so it took the initiative to run out.
He did not expect that there would be such a thing in the underground vault. However, this thing seemed to be useful to him. After thinking for a while, he reached out and grabbed it. He put the snake head and tail back into his purple star bag and walked up.
After coming out of the autonomous Star Platform, he returned to his residence and talked with Elder Lu for a while before going back to meditate.
On the morning of the second day, he wrote an official letter and asked Ye Silan to deliver it to the rest house on his behalf. He then continued his journey from the day before. In the next three days, he walked all over the palace.
Just as he had expected, there weren't many things here that contained Origin Energy. Even if he added them all up, there were no more than ten of them. However, it was still a harvest. He would never complain about having too much Origin Energy.
During this time, he also received a reply from Feng Ku, who said that it was not convenient for Feng Ku to visit the library. The wording was polite, but the meaning of rejection was clear.
He had another thought. According to the law, this seal should belong to the Xuanfu. However, because the two manors had taken care of it for the past few years, they had indeed paid quite a price. It was unreasonable to immediately request that everything be handed over to the Xuanfu.
However, this time, he only requested to inspect it, not to take it back. This was a very reasonable request. However, the other party was making all sorts of excuses. He immediately felt that there was something wrong with this request.
Because he had already collected all the Origin Energy that could be absorbed from Yan Tai Academy, he did not plan to stay any longer. After bidding farewell to Elder Lu, he immediately took a flying boat and headed to Yi Lin County.
Yi Lin County's Feng Ku and Yan Tai Academy were both located in the Moon Prefecture. They were only two counties apart. Therefore, his journey was very fast. In less than half an hour, he arrived above Yi Lin County.
Just as he was about to reach his destination, a foreign flying boat was also heading towards Feng Ku. A young man and a young woman were sitting on the boat. The young man was very handsome. His facial features were flawless. The young woman had a head of white hair. She also had an otherworldly beauty.
The young man looked down and said, "This is the place. Ai Ruo, our Mata Race's Revelation Stone is hidden here. You just need to take a look at it and you will receive enlightenment from it."
Ai Ruo said softly, "My elder brother, you keep emphasizing that this thing is very important to our race. However, you won't tell me the reason. Can I ask if I can obtain power from it?"
The young man hesitated for a moment and said, "There is no power there. You can only obtain knowledge. However, this is enough. It is something left behind by an ancient god. I think you can understand its importance."
Ai Ruo's eyes lit up. "Is that so?" Then, she asked doubtfully, "But why would the people of Qingyang allow us to come in contact with such an important thing?"
The young man replied patiently, "Because they have their own source of power. They don't need these things. They also don't understand the importance of this thing to us. However, Ai Ruo, don't think that this is easy. If it wasn't for the fact that the people of Qingyang are fighting those monsters and need our support, they wouldn't have allowed us to come in contact with this thing."
Ai Ruo raised her beautiful eyebrows. "Oh? They need our support? " She laughed ambiguously. "It seems that they are not as powerful as we thought."
The young man said, "Therefore, this is our chance." He looked down and saw that the flying boat was slowly descending. "We're here."
The flying boat landed on the dock not long after. The cabin door opened and two people walked out.
A middle-aged official was already waiting below. Behind him were two armored soldiers. At this moment, he took the initiative to walk forward and clasped his hands. "Greetings to the two of you. I am Shui Heng, the manager of this warehouse."
The young man returned the salute with an impeccable Tianxia salute. At the same time, he said in Tianxia language, "Thank you, Manager Shui, for giving us this opportunity."
The middle-aged official shook his head and said, "You don't have to thank me. This is Ming Prefecture Lord's care, and I'm just doing my duty. Please come this way …" Just as he was about to take a step forward, a servant ran over and whispered something into his ear. He frowned and said, "Tell him to wait for a while. I'll go see him as soon as I'm done with my business here."
He pulled the servant who was about to take a step forward and reminded him, "Be polite to that person. Don't offend him."
The servant nodded. "Don't worry, Manager. We'll leave quickly."
The middle-aged official turned around and gestured with his hand. "This way, please."
He led the way in front, bringing the two of them across a wide square that was filled with sentry posts. They entered a tall and heavy fortress and walked along a long corridor. Soon, they arrived in front of a large metal door. A stream of light could be seen floating above it.
There were two metal giants guarding the place, one on the left and one on the right. Their red eyes first swept over the young man before nodding their heads in respect to the middle-aged civil official.
The middle-aged official also nodded. "Thank you for your hard work." He walked forward and placed his hand on a jade platform. In a split second, the stream of light on the metal door faded away and a clear mist gushed out from the corridor on both sides.
Ai Ruo was startled, but the young man shook his head, indicating that she need not worry.
Moments later, the entire corridor began to tremble with a rumbling sound. The door to the sealed warehouse slowly opened. The middle-aged official said, "Follow me." He took the lead and walked inside.
The young man and woman exchanged glances and followed him inside. Just as the three of them entered, the door to the sealed warehouse slowly closed.
After receiving the middle-aged official's instructions, the servant hurriedly came to the guest room outside the treasury. He bowed to Zhang Yu who was waiting there and said apologetically, "Zhang Xuanzheng, the Yamen Lord has something important to deal with. Xuanzheng, please wait for a moment. When the matter is over, the Yamen Lord will personally come and apologize to Xuanzheng."
Zhang Yu's eyes flickered. He sensed that this attendant's body was tainted with a trace of divine energy. With a thought, he immediately stood up and walked out. The attendant was stunned. He hurriedly chased after him and said, "Xuan Zheng?"
Zhang Yu arrived outside and looked toward the plaza. In a split second, many illusory figures appeared there, and two of them were particularly bright. He said, "Did the extraterrestrial gods come here just now? They went to the sealed warehouse? "
The attendant was caught off guard by his question. He stammered, "This, I …"
Zhang Yu nodded. "I understand." He walked forward with large strides, and the servant hurriedly followed. "Xuanzheng, where are you going?"
Zhang Yu ignored him and walked toward the sealed warehouse alone. He seemed to be walking very calmly, but as his sleeves fluttered, clouds of smoke appeared. He actually crossed the plaza in a few steps and appeared in front of the fortress.
The servant realized that something was wrong and could only run while shouting across the plaza, "Xuanzheng, Xuanzheng, stop him, stop him …"
At this moment, Zhang Yu had already entered the stone fortress. He walked along the tunnel step by step. Not long after, two metal giants appeared in front of him.
One of them glanced at him and said in a deep voice, "Please leave. This is the sealed warehouse, and outsiders are not allowed to enter. No matter who you are, if you come forward again, we won't be polite."
Zhang Yu did not intend to communicate with the two of them. He glanced forward, and through the Seal of Observation, he could see that the two figures flickering with dazzling light were following someone into the large door at the end of the corridor.
He flung his sleeves and continued to walk forward.
The two metal giants were ordered to guard this place. After the usual warning, they would not show any mercy. Therefore, at this moment, they did not hesitate for a moment. The spiritual light on their bodies instantly burst out, and they lowered their center of gravity and rushed toward Zhang Yu.
The two of them arrived side by side, and their massive bodies sealed off the space in front of him. The power of their charge was enough to crush any physical body.
Zhang Yu walked forward slowly and calmly. Just as he was about to collide with the two of them, a beam of resplendent starlight suddenly flashed behind him, and he disappeared from where he was. When he reappeared, he was already in front of the large metal door.
The two metal giants charged forward for over ten steps before coming to a stop. They turned their heads and saw that Zhang Yu was standing there with his back facing them. At this moment, he took another step forward, and there seemed to be a flash of starlight in the corridor. Then he disappeared.
