In a huge underground hall, there were gold bars, silver, diamonds, gems, agates, and ancient jades that stretched as far as the eye could see.
These were the treasures that the Underworld Sect had accumulated over countless years, and they were all secretly stored here.
Zuo Zhicheng looked at the gold bars in front of him, and a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes.
He asked, "How many things have you hidden?"
The Holy Son of Hell said lightly, "According to the assessment half a year ago, these things add up to about 50 million coins, which is equivalent to five years of tax revenue from the three colonies."
"So much money, you can even build a country." However, Zuo Zhicheng thought that the Underworld Sect controlled most of the trade, smuggling, and shipping in the three colonies. It was normal for them to have this kind of income.
Zuo Zhicheng walked into a maze of gold, silver, and gems. He sighed and said, "No wonder everyone wants to find the treasures you've hidden. With so much wealth, any force can become rich instantly and expand their power crazily."
Although he said so, Zuo Zhicheng did not plan to open the treasures here now. After all, there were too many spies here. Whether it was the Yunyu Army, the Lin Mountain Army, the Qian Scale Army, the Mountain Armor Army, the Tianhe Sect, or Xiao Tianyou's people, they all had people stationed here. Almost everyone's eyes were fixed on this place.
If such a large amount of wealth was moved now, it would attract everyone's attention and cause a mad scramble.
Based on the current situation, it would take at least three to five years for the army to gradually withdraw. When everyone's attention was temporarily diverted from the Underworld Sect, it would be suitable to open the treasures.
However, Zuo Zhicheng's purpose this time was not to collect the wealth in front of him. He continued to walk along the path paved with gold and diamonds, and gradually reached the center of the underground hall.
In the center of this innumerable wealth, there were a total of ten rows of bookshelves. The bookshelves were filled with all kinds of martial arts that the Underworld Sect had created since its establishment. Other than that, there were also martial arts that were more valuable when they had annihilated other sects.
There were even several secret books of Taoist magic arts. No one knew where they found them.
However, the most precious of all was naturally the Underworld Sect's treasured book, the Underworld Sect's Soul Cleansing Scripture. This Reincarnation Scripture, which was known to be able to twist people's hearts and manipulate them, had recorded all the cultivation experiences from the Qi Refinement Stage to the Void Refinement Stage. It was extremely precious.
It was also the treasure that Zhao Xingzhou, Ye Junxi, and the others dreamed of obtaining.
Zuo Zhicheng walked past ten rows of bookshelves, and a transparent crystal about the size of a human head appeared in front of Zuo Zhicheng. The pure transparent crystalline material formed the image of a human body sitting cross-legged. It looked like a crystal Buddha, shining with a strange light.
The Yama Holy Son said, "This Hell's Living Buddha is a precious treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation since our Underworld Sect was founded. Legend had it that the founder of the Underworld Sect had obtained it from a historical remnant, and it contained boundless mysteries.
The Hell Soul Cleansing Scripture is hidden within this Buddha statue. "
Zuo Zhicheng looked at the Buddha in front of him that was emitting waves of evil and asked, "What do you think?"
The Yama Holy Son explained, "As long as you put it under the sun and change it from different angles, you will be able to see the words in different chapters."
As he spoke, Zuo Zhicheng pointed his finger. A ray of light lit up from his fingertip and turned into a beam of light that shot toward the Hell's Living Buddha.
With this beam of light, he could see the inside of the Hell's Living Buddha. As the light shone on the Buddha, paragraphs of words were revealed. As Zuo Zhicheng's fingertip moved, the light changed, and all kinds of images and words appeared in front of Zuo Zhicheng.
The images and words were densely packed together. If Zuo Zhicheng did not have the ability of his left eye, it would have been very difficult for him to see them.
The Yama Holy Son did not seem surprised by the light released by the other party. He continued, "The whole Hell Soul Cleansing Scripture has a total of 120,000 words. It is composed of five parts, namely the general outline, the health, the Qi Refinement, the Spirit Refinement, and the Void Refinement. There is no record of the whole scripture on paper. It can only be seen on the Hell's Living Buddha. "
Zuo Zhicheng nodded with a satisfied smile on his face. "Not bad. But the martial arts you used were not recorded in the Hell Soul Cleansing Scripture, right?"
The Yama Holy Son did not deny it and directly said, "Indeed, the Hell's Soul Cleansing Scripture is incomparably broad. The scripture's words are concise but profound. Especially the general outline, it explains the truth of heaven and earth and the ethics of the universe. Every generation of Sect Masters comprehended the general outline and created some powerful martial arts that fit the theory of the Hell's Soul Cleansing Scripture.
Zuo Zhicheng looked at the bookshelves around him. He picked up a book at random and found that it was the secret manual of the Thousand Ghosts Underworld Cold Claw.
This secret manual recorded in detail the training method, the fighting method, and the maintenance of the hands. Especially at the beginning of the practice, one needed to apply medicine and take medicine. Various Yin herbs and even poisons were used to temper the palms. Then, various Yang herbs were used to neutralize and maintain the palms. This would make the palms as hard as steel. Together with the claw technique, the power was endless.
Moreover, this secret manual did not stop there. The most important part was at the back. It was the notes left by the previous Sect Masters, Dharmarajas, and other masters. It detailed the differences between the Thousand Ghosts Underworld Cold Claw at the Qi Refinement, the Spirit Refinement, and the Void Refinement.
The martial arts experience in this book was priceless.
Seeing Zuo Zhicheng's bright and spirited look, the Yama Holy Son asked, "You're learning martial arts like this. Are you trying to learn by analogy and accumulate a lot of martial arts experience to condense the true meaning of martial arts and break through the Dharma stage?"
Zuo Zhicheng nodded. "Yes, that's my intention. But it's also convenient. Let's wait here for ten days. We'll leave after I've memorized all the secret manuals here. "
"You want to take me to Haijing? The martial arts of the Underworld Sect are different from yours. You've already reached the Mortal Realm, and you're walking the path of killing intent and chilliness. Aren't you afraid that you'll have a conflict of ideas, go crazy, and regress your martial arts? "
"Your martial arts experience is very useful to me. Naturally, I won't kill you before I find out everything." Zuo Zhicheng said calmly, "As for going crazy and having a conflict of ideas, this is the difference between you and me. In my opinion, martial arts is no different from the four arts. In the end, it's just a skill and a tool.
As for how to use it, it depends on the person. Only the person himself is the most important. "
