The charming widow of the Marquis's mansion: The stable boy carries the flag and raises the dra

This is a huge underground cave, hundreds of feet in size.

The dome, tens of feet high, is inlaid with dozens of fist-sized luminous pearls that emit a soft light, illuminating the entire cave.

The cave floor was paved with neat bluestones, and the gaps were filled with white glutinous rice paste, making it as smooth as a mirror.

The surrounding area was piled high with all sorts of rare and precious materials.

The spirit stones were piled up into small mountains, including top-grade and supreme-grade spirit stones.

The bottles of pills were neatly stacked on the shelf, with labels on them that read "Nine-Grade Rejuvenation Pill," "Nine-Grade Breakthrough Pill," and "Nine-Grade Spirit Nourishing Pill."

The walls were covered with magical artifacts: swords, spears, halberds, axes, hooks, and forks—a dazzling array.

The grades range from Earth Rank to Heaven Rank, and they are placed separately on an exquisite wooden shelf.

The spiritual plants were planted in the herb garden in the corner of the cave.

The entire cave was filled with spiritual energy, which condensed into a pale green mist.

Taking a puff is invigorating!

Wang Long stood in the center of the cave, his gaze sweeping over his surroundings, and he was completely stunned.

"this……"

Xu Wanyun stood beside him, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.

"This is... the treasure vault of those twelve magical beasts?"

Little Fairy floated down from mid-air and landed on Wang Long's shoulder.

"Yes! That's their treasure trove!"

"These beasts, their wealth accumulated over thousands of years, should all be here!"

Little Fairy was extremely excited.

Wang Long took a deep breath, suppressed the shock in his heart, and walked to the pile of spirit stones.

There are at least a million high-grade spirit stones, roughly estimated.

There are also tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones.

He reached out and picked up a top-grade spirit stone.

The spirit stone was crystal clear and exuded a rich spiritual energy.

Holding it in your hand, you can feel a warm current flowing into your body through your palm, making you feel completely comfortable.

"nice one."

Wang Long put the spirit stones into his storage ring and walked towards the pill shelf.

Grade 9 elixirs are extremely rare and hard to find in the outside world.

Here, dozens of bottles were neatly stacked.

He picked up a bottle of "Ninth Grade Breakthrough Pills", uncorked it, and poured out one.

The pill is golden in color, with fine red patterns flowing across its surface, and emits a faint medicinal fragrance.

"Breakthrough Pill... Ninth Grade..."

Wang Long muttered to himself, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

This kind of pill is useful even for martial artists at the Grandmaster level.

Taking one can increase the chance of breaking through the bottleneck by 30%.

Outside the market, this kind of elixir is extremely rare and expensive, with even a single pill fetching an astronomical price.

And here, there's a whole bottle, twelve pieces.

Wang Long carefully put away the pills and walked towards the magical artifact shelf.

There are dozens of Heavenly Rank spiritual artifacts.

Five Saint-level spiritual artifacts.

He picked up a Saint-level longsword and held it in his hand.

The sword is as thin as paper, yet incredibly sharp.

With a gentle flick of the wrist, a sword aura shot out from the tip of the sword, cleaving a distant boulder in two.

"What a fine sword!"

Wang Long praised it and put the longsword into his storage ring.

He then picked up a Heavenly Rank shield, which was entirely black and covered with defensive runes.

After being infused with spiritual power, the shield instantly grew larger, transforming into a giant shield over ten feet tall, shielding him and Xu Wanyun behind it.

"Their defensive capabilities are quite good."

Wang Long also took the shield.

The remaining three Heavenly Rank spiritual artifacts are a set of inner armor, a pair of boots, and a helmet.

Wang Long accepted them all with a smile.

Xu Wanyun walked to the edge of the herb garden, squatted down, and looked at the spiritual plants.

"Uncle Long, these spiritual plants are all very old, probably over a thousand years old."

Wang Long walked over and squatted down beside her.

"These spiritual plants are all treasures."

He reached out and gently plucked a thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum.

The Ganoderma lucidum is entirely red and emits a faint medicinal fragrance.

Wang Long put the Ganoderma lucidum into his storage ring and then picked a thousand-year-old ginseng.

The two picked all the spiritual plants in the herb garden and then took all the remaining rare and precious herbs for themselves.

The storage ring was completely full, so Wang Long had to take out several empty storage rings before he could fill it with everything.

The little fairy floated in mid-air, looking at the empty cave, her little face full of satisfaction.

"Master, we've struck it rich this time!"

Wang Long smiled and nodded.

This is an incredible windfall. The resources they now possess are unmatched even if the entire Great Qian Dynasty were to pool all its resources together.

Wang Long was confident that he could use elixirs to help Luo Hanyi reach the Grandmaster realm.

Give him some time, and helping Qin Minglan and Murong Qing advance to the Grandmaster realm won't be a problem!

He turned his head and looked at Xu Wanyun.

"Wanyun, the spiritual energy here is abundant, and resources are plentiful. Since there's still a long time before it ends, why not continue cultivating here?"

The two of them have already accumulated over a million Heavenly Stones, making them a shoo-in for first place; they don't need to try their luck anywhere.

Xu Wanyun nodded slightly.

"I'll do whatever Uncle Long says~"

Without hesitation, the two found a spacious spot in the cave, laid out animal skin rugs, and set up a tent.

He then took out a spirit lamp from his storage ring and hung it above the tent.

A soft white light shone in the cave, dispelling the last vestiges of darkness.

Wang Long sat cross-legged on the animal skin, took out the inner core of a Grandmaster-level magical beast from his storage ring, and held it in his hand.

"Wanyun, this inner core will benefit both of us greatly, let's do it together!"

Xu Wanyun nodded and sat down opposite him.

The two men faced each other with their palms touching.

The inner core floated between the two, and Wang Long immediately activated his Chaotic Dao Body.

next moment

A tremendous power surged from the inner core, enveloping the two of them, and then Wang Long flowed into his body.

That power was violent and intense, carrying the wildness unique to magical beasts.

However, under the refinement of the Chaos Dao Body, that wildness was gradually worn away and transformed into pure spiritual power.

The spiritual energy surged through the meridians and flowed into the dantian.

Wang Long's aura began to rise slowly.

At the same time, he transferred some of the converted spiritual energy to Xu Wanyun.

Xu Wanyun closed her eyes and activated the literary energy within her body.

The spiritual and cultural energy in the cave intertwines, forming a perfect cycle.

One cycle, two cycles, three cycles...

Time passed silently during cultivation.

I don't know how much time has passed.

The inner core in Wang Long's hand was exhausted, turning into a pile of powder that fell softly from between his fingers.

He opened his eyes, took out another inner core, and continued cultivating.

One, two, three...

He refined the inner cores of twelve Grandmaster-level magical beasts one by one.

The violent spiritual energy surged through his meridians, tempering his flesh, bones, and meridians.

Each breath is accompanied by the circulation of spiritual energy and the ascent of one's spiritual realm.

His breath grew stronger and deeper.

The shackles of the mid-stage Grandmaster realm are beginning to loosen.

Xu Wanyun was also constantly absorbing the spiritual energy transmitted by Wang Long.

At this moment, the Sage's Jade Slip slowly floated out of her bosom and hovered above her head.

The literary energy from the sage's jade slip continuously flowed into her body.

The aura emanating from her body grew increasingly profound and solid.

The initial constraints imposed on Grandmasters are also loosening.

The two cultivated for an unknown period of time.

There is no day or night in the cave, only the eternal light of the spirit lamp.

Wang Long finally refined the last inner core.

He opened his eyes, and a sharp glint flashed in his cloudy old eyes!

A powerful aura erupted from his body, spreading throughout the entire cave!

The surroundings were trembling violently, and rubble from the dome was falling down in a cascade!

Peak Grandmaster!

Become!

He's just one step away from reaching the Saint rank!
