Chapter 646 - Gold Jade
Chapter 646 – Gold Jade
Although the sudden appearance of the Illusory Clan in the Xishan Village was caused by Yang Junshan setting up the “Hanging Mirror in the Array”, he did not place the Mirror Break into the array solely for the Illusory Clan. Furthermore, when normal cultivators went in and out of the Xishan Village, they would not even be able to sense the existence of Mirror.
After Yang Junshan was done, he went to the top of the Western Mountain.
This was still a place where the lightning still raged. Even though the Amethyst Thunder Crystal was already protected by the large formation and the raging lightning was also restrained, other than the few Spiritual Masters, even Yang Junping and the rest of the Great Circle Realm cultivators rarely came here.
Not only did Yang Junshan arrive at the top of the mountain, he even directly entered a formation barrier that was used to isolate the lightning.
Crack, crack, crack. Countless electric sparks flickered and floated within the barrier, and occasionally landed on Yang Junshan’s body, even though his body was extremely strong, he couldn’t help but tremble from the electric light. However, Yang Junshan’s gaze was currently fixed on a stone table in the middle of this area filled with lightning, and on the stone table, there was an extremely exquisite looking storage bag.
This storage bag had already been placed on the stone table for who knows how long, and from time to time, it would be struck by the flashing lightning. However, the materials used by the storage bag were clearly very special, so the lightning did not destroy it.
Originally, Yang Junshan thought that afteeriod of time, the seal on the storage bag would automatically disappear, but it was fortunate that it had grown a heart. If he had not discovered it in time, when he activated his heart, he probably would have been noticed by a Daoist Realm cultivator. That Purple Wind Sect girl’s origins were really scary, could it be that she was really a Daoist Realm ancestor like he said?
But the more it was like this, the more Yang Junshan was curious to know what kind of treasure was inside the storage bag.
When encountering this kind of imprint traps set up by the Great Divine Cultivator in order to protect the younger generations, there were usually two ways to resolve this. The first way was to forcefully open the storage bag in some of the spatial ruins, because of the separation effect of the spatial ruins, one would not have to be afraid of being followed by Daoist realm cultivators who might exist on the storage bag. In fact, in the Liang Yu Mountain Range’s Cao Xun Secret Realm, it should have been the best way to solve the problem, but unfortunately, time was too tight and Yang Junshan had been fighting with the Cultivator Zi Mei formed by the Amethyst Thunder Light Stone, so he did not have time to think about breaking the seal of the storage bag.
The second was like this, placing the storage bag in a dangerous place and slowly erasing the imprint on it. Although the Thunder Light Array was controlled by Yang Junshan, the rampaging lightning inside couldn’t bring along Yang Junshan’s own true essence aura, let alone the fact that it was a water dripping process. By the time the owner of the imprint had noticed the imprint on the storage bag, his sealed imprint would have already been removed.
The reason why Yang Junshan used this second method was obviously because he had deliberately delayed for a long time just to be cautious. The reason was because he was afraid that there would be some other Great Divine Cultivator on the storage bag that would cause a backlash, but until now, if Yang Junshan did not open the storage bag by force, the entire storage space might collapse under the continuous bombardment of the lightning.
That being the case, Yang Junshan did not bring the storage bag out of the spatial barrier, but rather forcefully activated the storage bag under the raging lightning!
In an instant, the weak power of space spread out in all directions, and the space of the storage bag began to collapse. The various materials stored inside began to either survive the destructive power of space, or be completely minced.
And in this short period of time, Yang Junshan’s gaze was able to capture at least one spirit artifact, dozens of jade crystals, two inheritance jade plate s, and a few talismans that flickered with abundant spiritual light were shattered by the spatial energy.
Yang Junshan who was watching from the side felt his heart aching and happy, excited that the storage bag really had a lot of things stored inside, and from the looks of the Purple Wind Sect girl’s background, these things were probably all priceless treasures. However, his heart ached because even though there were so many treasures, they would at least be half shattered by the storage bag’s spatial energy.
The power of space slowly calmed down. Yang Junshan saw that there waile of materials scattered around the barrier of formations, but he did not sense any special spirit energy fluctuations from them. Only then did he form a seal, causing the originally raging lightning to suddenly rise, and no longer touch the items scattered on the ground.
Yang Junshan, on the other hand, saw the spirit artifact that was specially used to fly away.
Even if it was the few Aurora Stones that Yang Junshan had brought back from the extreme northern ice plains, Yang Junshan was still only using a middle grade flying magic tool.
With this flying spirit artifact in his hand, he only needed to change the appearance of the spirit artifact slightly, then when he entered the Buried Sky Ruins, Yang Junshan would have an additional method to protect his life.
Other than this flying spirit artifact, what was not destroyed by the spatial energy were actually two more spirit artifacts. This made Yang Junshan once again sigh at the rich fourth generation of Purple Wind Sect called Xiao Xianger.
But at this time, Yang Junshan’s attention was not on the two spirit artifacts, but on a small exquisite flute!
“This short flute looks so familiar!”
Yang Junshan first played with the flute in his hand for a while, then concentrated on rummaging through his storage ring.
“Found it!”
Yang Junshan’s heart stirred, and an identical flute appeared in his hand. However, this flute looked to be much older than the one that Xiao Xianger had, and the paint on it was mottled as well, as though it was an antique. In reality, this flute that Yang Junshan had obtained in the Sunset Ridge’s cave was indeed hundreds of years old.
Back then, when Yang Junshan had obtained this flute, he had also been curious as to whether this flute had any hidden uses, but in the end, he did not manage to detect anything, and the Imperial Censor threw it into his storage ring. He never thought that he would actually find an identical flute in Xiao Xianger’s storage bag, causing his originally dispelled curiosity to be once again piqued.
What were the uses of these two flutes?
Yang Junshan remembered that the Master of Dawn who he inherited was also from the Purple Wind Sect!
Yang Junshan played with the two little flutes together, but in the end, he still did not find anything. Maybe the first flute was an accident, but the two identical flutes appeared on the bodies of two different cultivators in the same sect, which was intriguing.
At the very least, these two flutes had some sort of special meaning. It was just that Yang Junshan himself did not know about them.
After casually putting away the two short flutes, waiting for a chance to go to Xi Zhou to check again, Yang Junshan’s gaze was attracted by a fragmented map.
What was this? A treasure map, a mystic realm map, or even something else?
Judging from the damaged part of the map, it could only be considered a corner of a complete map. At most, it would only be a quarter of the original size.
Yang Junshan looked up and down, but he couldn’t find anything wrong with it. Only the huge “Huang” on the front of the map fragment had an extraordinary aura.
Yang Junshan laughed bitterly and shook his head, then casually threw the map fragment into his storage ring. When he was lucky enough to find a chance to check again in the future, he once again focused on the other things that were left behind.
At this time, there were two Spirit Treasures on the ground, one was a Medial Grade Spirit Treasure, Wind Setting Flag, and the other was a Low Grade Spirit Treasure, Wen Fengling.
Yang Junshan could not help but laugh bitterly once again. In a large sect like the Purple Wind Sect, this Spirit Treasure was not worth much in the hands of a rich fourth generation cultivator like Xiao Xianger.
When Yang Junshan was in the extreme north ice plains, he already had two Spirit Treasures, mountain cleaver and Snake Winding. He already felt that he had quite the fortune, but compared to this person, what else could he be if not a countryside bumpkin?
Yang Junshan remembered clearly, other than these two Spirit Treasures, the other Spirit Treasures that Xiao Xianger had used were the same ones. When he had opened his storage ring, Yang Junshan had seen at least one of the Spirit Treasures that was destroyed by the spatial rifts, thus he had seen at least four Spirit Treasures.
He also remembered that back then, when Xiao Xianger was captured and knocked unconscious by Jia Hui, there was even a ray of spiritual light that protected its master.
To be able to protect one’s master even after losing consciousness, aside from the divine abilities reserved by the rich fourth generation elders, there seemed to be only one other magical equipment that was at least at the level of a treasure!
In the current cultivation world, there were many newly ascended Spiritual Masters who did not even have a single Spirit Weapon. Yang Junshan’s current cultivation of four Spirit Treasures could be considered to be extremely wealthy, and this was only because he had a close friend and master level artificer.
And this Xiao Xianger, several years ago, already had so many treasures on him that she was too lazy to even take them out to use!
Throwing these thoughts out of his mind, Yang Junshan started to collect the scattered talismans on the ground.
These talismans also lost a lot when the storage space collapsed. However, the quality of the remaining ten or so talismans was at least above the spirit talismans. The best of the three golden talismans were sealed with a sacred art: Wind Transforming Talisman, Hidden Wind Talisman, and Wind Chasing Talisman.
All of them were talismans that could be used to escape. Moreover, these three talismans were all talismans at the level of a Daoist Master.
The Wind Chasing Talisman could make a cultivator’s body become illusory and evade the opponent’s attacks. The Hidden Wind Talisman could also make a cultivator’s body turn into a breeze, making it impossible for the opponent to track them. The Wind Chasing Talisman waype of escaping technique.
Although the Wind Chasing Talisman could also be used to chase after opponents, and the Hidden Wind Talisman could also be used to assassinate and steal, the three talismans were obviously a method of escape prepared for her by the elders behind Xiao Xianger. Unfortunately, back then, Xiao Xianger was trapped in a formation, so even if she had used them, the might of the talismans would have been greatly reduced.
There were even a few pith coin s, especially the first two, which were not too low in terms of quality. Yang Junshan even found a few Source Ice Stones, which after being briefly checked by Yang Junshan, were finally left with only two things: one was a five feet long willow branch, and the other one was actually Golden Wind Jade Dew!
