The expressions of Ye Kong and the others changed slightly. “Damn it,” someone muttered, “we won’t just stare blankly because we can’t take it all, right?”
The pills inside this stone chamber would undoubtedly cause a massive uproar if they were taken outside. After all, even a single Soul-Enhancing Pill had made Hong Zhong flinch in pain over its cost. The pills stored in this chamber could certainly be considered top-grade treasures.
“This ring contains a separate space—it’s actually a spatial storage device that qualifies as a Spirit Artifact. It could hold even ten chambers like this one without any problem!”
Just as Xiao Yufan was at a loss, Cheng Ying suddenly appeared holding a ring, her slightly cool hand reaching out to clasp his.
A spatial storage device? A Spirit Artifact?
Everyone was stunned. Their expressions quickly turned strange. Since when had Spirit Artifacts become so common? From the beginning, when Yuxuan had taken out a flying Spirit Artifact, followed by the appearance of increasingly bizarre artifacts, things had become hard to believe.
The other men, aside from Xiao Yufan, had already begun to groan in envy. Why didn’t they have the same luck as Xiao Yufan? Not only did he have two stunning women constantly by his side, but the treatment he received made them want to bang their heads against a wall.
If just one woman would give them a Spirit Artifact, even Ye Kong would happily offer himself in return. After all, this was a Spirit Artifact—certainly not something you could find at a street stall.
Xiao Yufan felt a warm glow in his heart, touched by the gesture. Although Cheng Ying rarely spoke, he constantly sensed her deep affection. This time, she had even given him a Spirit Artifact.
“Just collect everything here first. After all, whatever is mine is yours anyway!”
As if sensing Xiao Yufan’s emotions shifting, Cheng Ying smiled faintly, her lips curving into an alluring smile. To be able to help this man brought her immense happiness.
Perhaps because of Yuxuan’s presence, Cheng Ying felt a slight pang of jealousy. No woman could be that magnanimous. Although she didn’t mind other women around Xiao Yufan, she still harbored the natural insecurities of any woman.
Though it was just a simple sentence, it sent a tremor through Xiao Yufan. “Whatever is mine is yours?” What more could a man ask for? At that moment, his entire heart melted into Cheng Ying’s tenderness. If it weren’t for Ye Kong and the others clearing their throats, he might have done something quite impulsive.
A hint of shyness flickered across Cheng Ying’s face, and she shot Ye Kong a sharp glare. That guy was so annoying. Ye Kong could only pout in response, realizing he had unknowingly angered the little princess again.
To avoid any unforeseen complications, Xiao Yufan immediately began gathering the pills into the spatial ring. Indeed, the Spirit Artifact was wondrous, capable of containing an independent space. It must have been crafted by someone of extraordinary power.
By the time Xiao Yufan had collected all the pills, he was drenched in sweat. But even if it had been tiring, it was worth it. Tens of thousands of pills—this was beyond monetary value. He was certain that with these resources, the Tian Alliance would soon stand at the pinnacle of the Huaxia region’s elite forces.
In the future, the Tian Alliance might even rival ancient clans like the Gu Ling and Blood Spirit clans.
Seeing Xiao Yufan take everything from the chamber, Ye Kong and Xie Yuan wore expressions of disappointment. Seeing so many pills, it was impossible for them to remain unaffected. But at this point, they couldn’t possibly ask for any.
“Don’t worry. I won’t keep all these pills for myself. Once we leave, everyone will get their share!”
Xiao Yufan naturally noticed the shift in their expressions, but he wasn’t selfish. He wouldn’t hoard everything.
“Cough, cough. We didn’t mean anything by it. After all, the Dragon-Controlling Token belongs to Xiao Yufan. Without it, we wouldn’t even have been able to open this chamber. So even if you took everything, we wouldn’t have any objections!”
Ye Kong felt a little awkward after Xiao Yufan’s words. Without the Dragon-Controlling Token, they wouldn’t have even entered the chamber. It was clear how rare and valuable the token was. They seemed to have no grounds for complaint.
“Don’t pretend. You’re obviously dying to ask for a few pills right now…”
Yuxuan huffed again, piercing Ye Kong’s pretense. It seemed he should tone down the act in the future, or else he’d find it hard to save face.
“Since we’re a team, the stronger we become, the better. If these items can enhance your strength, I will never hesitate to share!” Xiao Yufan said with a smile, easing the awkward atmosphere slightly.
At his promise, everyone’s face lit up with joy.
In the hidden martial arts world where ancient martial arts were resurging, what mattered most was strength. Power commanded respect. Only through sufficient strength could one earn recognition. Since arriving at this mysterious place, they had realized how far they still were from true geniuses.
But if pills could help bridge that gap, they were more than willing to embrace the opportunity. Xie Yuan and the others following him had already caught a glimpse of the hope of attaining the Xiantian realm, a level that might no longer be an insurmountable boundary for them.
“Let’s go check the second chamber. I’m sure it holds treasures too!” Cheng Ying reminded them.
“Right, the second chamber. The second chamber must also hold something good too! Wow, if there’s another chamber full of pills, I’ll be set for life!”
Xiao Yufan thought to himself. The first chamber had already made him incredibly rich. If the next chamber contained just as many pills, he might become the wealthiest person in the entire hidden martial arts world.
However, from the fluctuations emanating from the second chamber, it didn’t seem to be another pill room. Still, Xiao Yufan’s anticipation remained high.
With a wave of his hand, he pulled the Dragon-Controlling Token from the first chamber’s stone door. Under his control, it flew straight toward the next chamber. As each person’s gaze burned with anticipation, the stone door slowly creaked open.
No fragrance of pills wafted out. However, as the gap widened, Xiao Yufan could feel the entire space’s energy compressing together!
Even just the fluctuating aura was this powerful. When chunks of translucent jade-like stones came into view, everyone froze. What were these things?
