A Windfall
"Gu Xuan, there are many of these Spiritual Treasures. There are at least a thousand of them!" Yun Xi exclaimed after checking.
"So many?" A glint was revealed in Gu Xuan's eyes. The number of Soul Treasures had exceeded his expectations.
Originally, he thought that most people would keep the Spiritual Treasures and negotiate with other sects. Hence, although there were more Spiritual Treasures than other treasures, it should not be too exaggerated.
However, Gu Xuan did not know that the Spiritual Treasures that were not damaged were accumulated over hundreds of years. Hence, there were many of them. More importantly, when people obtained Spiritual Treasures that did not belong to their sect, they either destroyed them or threw them away.
After all, these things could not be used. Furthermore, they were very difficult to explain. After collecting them, one would not know which sect lost them. Even if one knew and dared to exchange for them, the other sects would view them as a humiliation and might even start a war.
In the past, someone had used the entire time the Gu Residence was open to collect ten-odd Numinous Treasures and went to various sects to exchange for them. Although he had made a small fortune in the beginning, when he went to one of the sects, that sect viewed his actions as an insult. The sect's Elder directly killed him.
This completely destroyed any thoughts of the cultivators who entered the Ancient Flame Demon Residence of obtaining these lost Spiritual Treasures.
However, these Spiritual Treasures now belonged to Gu Xuan.
Yun Xi's Spiritual Strength was not restricted and could cover the entire Ancient Flame Demon Residence. Although there were no more Spiritual Treasures in the Gu Residence, there were also no more dangers. Gu Xuan could easily collect the treasures.
Of course, the Spiritual Treasures were not the only Spiritual Treasures that were lost in the Gu Residence. There were also some special treasures, such as the Spatial Ring that was lost in a corner.
Although there were fewer of them, they were still a windfall when added together.
Gu Xuan swept through the entire Ancient Flame Demon Residence in two and a half days. The number of treasures he obtained had already reached a horrifying level.
"I'm rich! I'm rich!"
Yun Xi was extremely excited. When they finished searching the last treasure, she could not help but say, "Gu Xuan, take out all the treasures you have found and count them. We were too focused on searching earlier and did not have the time to check them."
Gu Xuan smiled. He felt helpless against this little money-grubber. With a wave of his hand, a mountain of items appeared in front of him.
These items were divided into three piles. The largest pile was filled with all kinds of strange-looking spirit treasures.
There were a total of 1132 Spirit Treasures. Even if each Spirit Treasure was only worth 20 Fire-condensing Pills, it was still equivalent to more than 20,000 Fire-condensing Pills.
Although Gu Xuan knew that he would need more treasures to break through to the next realm, he was sure that with so many Fire-condensing Pills, it would be enough for him to reach the King Realm. Of course, this was only in theory. Eight or ten of these ordinary Spirit Treasures might be able to sell for a good price, but more than a thousand of them would be impossible for Ying Tianzong to digest.
Even if he digested all of them, it was impossible to give him a normal price because these spirit treasures could not be used for normal purposes.
The second pile contained the individual treasures that Gu Xuan had found. When placed together, there was quite a number of them.
The third pile had the least amount, but they were all interspatial rings. In reality, they were even more valuable than the second pile.
Gu Xuan took out all the treasures in the interspatial rings in one go. With a sweep of his soul power, he found out how many treasures there were.
"Thirteen Human Rank Spiritual Treasures, fifty-nine Fire-gathering Pills, and seven hundred and twenty million Spiritual Crystals. The other treasures are negligible." Gu Xuan's face bloomed into a smile.
"Wow!" Yun Xi sighed. "The treasures that we obtained before were not even one-tenth of what we have now."
"Alright, I will keep them now. If Envoy Qing Feng finds out, he will become suspicious." Gu Xuan waved his hand, and the numerous treasures were sucked into the interspatial ring.
After plundering the treasures, Gu Xuan did not have any reluctance to leave. He bade farewell to Envoy Qing Feng, who sent Gu Xuan to the Tianyuan Pavilion's teleportation array.
Near the Tianyuan Pavilion, a stone platform that looked exactly the same as the one that Gu Xuan had arrived on suddenly trembled, and a ray of light fell from the sky.
After the light dissipated, Gu Xuan's figure appeared.
"I'm back!"
Gu Xuan let out a long sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on his face. After coming out of the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion and breathing in the fresh air, he felt quite refreshed.
Envoy Qing Feng could observe the situation around the teleportation array, and only sent Gu Xuan over after confirming that there was no one guarding it. Hence, there was no need to worry about any danger.
"Is this the Tianyuan Pavilion?"
Gu Xuan turned his head and looked at the magnificent sect next to him. Whether it was in terms of grandeur or size, this sect was much stronger than the Ying Tian Sect.
"Yun Xi, find out how many Emperor-level cultivators there are in this sect." Gu Xuan communicated with Yun Xi through his mind.
"Three Emperor-level cultivators. Two of them are one-star Emperor-level cultivators, and one is a two-star Emperor-level cultivator." With a thought, Yun Xi investigated the details of the Tianyuan Pavilion.
"Three Emperor-level cultivators, and one is a two-star Emperor-level cultivator. It seems that Second Brother's life is very difficult." Gu Xuan shook his head helplessly and sighed in his heart.
Gu Xuan knew his disciple too well. Mo Jingyun's talent was not bad, but like Gu Xingyun, he did not have the ability to challenge those at a higher level. At most, he could deal with one or two one-star Emperor-level cultivators.
The gap between the peak of the Zong Stage and the Emperor Stage was too big. When Gu Xuan was at the peak of the Zong Stage, he could only challenge three-star Emperor-level cultivators. He was very frustrated.
"However, if I give the complete cultivation method to Second Brother and let him break through to the Emperor Stage, then even if the three of them attack him together, they may not be his match."
Gu Xuan thought in his heart, and he could not help but feel a little expectant.
A hundred years had passed, and things had changed. He did not expect that he would have the opportunity to meet his disciple again.
"Jingyun, what Master owes you, I will definitely make it up to you in this life."
A trace of guilt flashed across Gu Xuan's face. He could imagine how much pressure Mo Jingyun, who was only at the peak of the Zong Stage, would have to bear under such circumstances.
Even so, Mo Jingyun could not bear to give up the cultivation method that he had imparted to him.
"Ying Tian Sect!"
Gu Xuan took a step forward and raised his speed to the peak. Like a phantom, he rushed toward the Ying Tian Sect.
Now, there were too many things that he was looking forward to in the Ying Tian Sect. First, there were the countless treasures that he had to exchange for. Then, he had to complete the assessment of the Elder of Training to obtain better treatment, which would make his future cultivation more convenient.
