A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

A wisp of thought probed into it, only to be met with resistance from a force...

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise flashing across his face.

"There's even a restriction..."

"That old man is about to die, what are you still insisting on?"

"Open it for me, Your Majesty!"

He snorted coldly, and a stronger spiritual sense shot out, instantly shattering the restrictions on the storage ring.

My mind instantly penetrated into it, sensing countless spiritual entities, elixirs, weapons, and magical treasures piled up like small mountains...

"hiss..."

"So many treasures?"

"That old bastard must have been greedy..."

Ye Chen muttered with a confident expression.

An inner sect elder, in charge of a place like the Enforcement Hall, must have a lot of money to be made...

Otherwise, where would he get so many magical artifacts?

Each one of them is a treasure-grade magic artifact, and there are even several spirit-grade magic artifacts among them...

The grades of magical artifacts are divided into: ordinary, precious, spiritual, immortal, and imperial.

It's considered quite good for outer disciples to possess even a common-grade magic weapon; even among inner disciples, only a very small number possess treasure-grade magic weapons...

Long Xingyu's storage ring was overflowing with riches...

Ye Chen ignored the magical artifacts and first took out all the bottles and jars of pills...

In the blink of an eye, the porcelain bottles in front of them had piled up into a small mountain, emitting a rich medicinal aroma...

This pile contains at least tens of thousands of pills.

However, most of these were low-grade pills, mostly second or third grade. Pills reaching fourth or sixth grade were extremely rare, and he hadn't yet found any pills of seventh grade or higher...

Ye Chen's eyes lit up as he looked on, inwardly marveling and wishing for more such easy targets...

His hands moved swiftly, immediately sifting through the pile of pills and categorizing them by their different effects...

Right now, body-tempering pills are of little use to him; he only occasionally eats them as a substitute for food. What he needs most right now are pills to replenish spiritual energy, which can quickly improve his cultivation level...

Before long, he had neatly arranged all the pills by category.

"This old man is really poor. He doesn't have a single seventh-grade pill, and he only has two sixth-grade pills..."

Ye Chen couldn't help but complain.

You should know that Liu Ruyan casually gave away several bottles of seventh-grade immortal pills last night, but Long Xingyu only had a pitifully small number of sixth-grade pills, and even a dozen or so fifth-grade pills, less than Ye Chen had...

He looked at the dazzling array of pills before him, swallowed hard, his stomach was too bloated to eat anymore...

"So full..."

The body-strengthening pills I took earlier haven't been fully digested yet...

With a wave of his hand, Ye Chen collected all the pills in front of him into a storage bag specifically used for storing pills...

Looking down at the storage ring in his hand, he was momentarily at a loss...

"What should we do with this storage ring?"

He could tell that this storage ring was a good thing; its storage space was dozens of times larger than a storage bag, and it was also very convenient to carry...

However, the presence of a treasure like a storage ring in the hands of an outer disciple is far too conspicuous and will inevitably attract much speculation...

If the sect members recognize this storage ring as belonging to Long Xingyu, it will surely bring about his death...

It would be such a waste to just throw them away like this, there are still many spirit stones and magical artifacts that haven't been transferred out.

After a brief moment of thought, Ye Chen waved his hand and stored the storage ring into his storage bag, intending to use it later when his cultivation level increased...

He looked up at the drafty room and couldn't help but smile bitterly. When he broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he hadn't been able to control the overflowing spiritual energy, which had directly destroyed the repaired doors and windows...

"I wonder if that kid is in his cave..."

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow and muttered under his breath.

Outside Cave 19...

"Knock knock knock..."

Ye Chen swung his fist and slammed it against the heavy stone door, creating a deafening knocking sound...

Almost the entire wall was shaking!

Who is it?

"Stop knocking..."

"You're so..."

The stone door opened, and Lü Luo walked out, cursing...

The moment she looked up and saw Ye Chen, her voice stopped abruptly, and her eyes cleared...

The anger on his face vanished without a trace.

"It's...it's Senior Brother Xu!"

"Senior Brother Xu's strength is truly...immense..."

Lu Luo looked at Ye Chen in front of him and said with a forced smile.

He was still a little scared, afraid that his earlier outburst might have angered Ye Chen...

He hadn't forgotten Ye Chen's move yesterday, where he sent Foundation Establishment cultivators flying with a single punch.

If it were someone with his small frame, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand even one punch...

Ye Chen glanced at him calmly and said in a deep voice.

"Come with me..."

After saying that, he walked towards his cave dwelling...

"what?"

Lu Luo was stunned for a moment, not understanding why Ye Chen wanted to call him over. He felt a chill run down his spine and was a little scared.

But he didn't dare refuse, so he could only bite the bullet and follow...

"Senior Brother Xu..."

"Is...is there something you can't say outside?"

"If it's something I can do, I definitely won't refuse..."

Lu Luo cautiously probed.

Ye Chen continued walking forward without turning his head, his calm voice drifting over...

"You'll see when you get here..."

"Huh? Oh..."

Lu Luo agreed with trepidation, a wave of panic washing over her...

From the moment he stepped into Ye Chen's cave, he was terrified, fearing he wouldn't be able to get out...

Suddenly, he looked up and saw the drafty house, barely held together by a few bare beams...

"this..."

Lu Luo stood there, stunned, looking completely bewildered...

"What's going on?"

He clearly remembered that he came over yesterday to help Ye Chen repair the house, so how come it's all gone now?

Could it be that everything that happened yesterday was just a dream?

Or is it that... I'm trapped in a cycle?

Ye Chen turned around and glanced at Lü Luo, raising an eyebrow.

"Your cooking skills aren't good enough..."

"It shattered overnight..."

Lü Luo: ? ? ?

Upon hearing this, Lü Luo immediately snapped out of her daze, looking at Ye Chen with a strange expression, and couldn't help but fall into deep thought...

Broken?

Those were wooden doors and windows, how could they have broken?

Even if my craftsmanship is terrible, it's still real wood...

"Alright, hurry up and fix it..."

"If it's not fixed by dark, then I'm going to raid your cave..."

Ye Chen suddenly spoke up.

Lü Luo: ? ? ?

To seize his cave?

Ye Chen's words echoed in his ears like a demon's whisper...

Lu Luo was startled and became fully awake.

"Senior brother, no..."

"I'll fix it right away, I'll definitely get it repaired before dark..."
