Chapter 411: Chapter 411: I’m Truly a Great Philanthropist
After discerning the true nature of these scholar’s treasures, Lü Yang stowed them away without a second thought.
’The scholar’s treasures’ appearance isn’t just for show—it’s also a type of seal. Anyone without the required bloodline would probably be unable to break the seal and claim the Artifacts.’
’So that’s it... This is the true purpose of the True Dragon Bloodline!’
And to think he had secretly suspected that True Dragon Bloodline was just a lesser version of Innate Immortal Spirit. How could it possibly qualify as a Golden Talent?
It seemed the Centome’s assessment was spot-on after all.
The true purpose of the True Dragon Bloodline wasn’t the minor buffs it provided, but that it allowed him to legitimately inherit the True Dragon Race’s fortune!
’Almost everything in this treasury is protected by a seal. Only a True Dragon can access them—and not just some mixed-blood descendant. It has to be the Dragon Monarch himself, or at least someone on the Celestial Python’s level. If I didn’t have the True Dragon Bloodline Talent Skill, I could’ve entered this treasury and only been able to stare helplessly at all the riches....’
"Not bad, not bad at all..."
Lü Yang mused to himself as he tucked away the *Celestial Language Shimmering Dragon Chapter*. After a moment’s thought, he stored the desk it had been sitting on as well.
It was Jia Wood, after all!
A Spiritual Material of such high quality could be used to refine a Superior Sentient Artifact with just a little effort. It would be a waste not to take it. Who ever complains about having too much money?
"All mine!"
Soon, Lü Yang moved to the bookshelf on the left. His eyes landed on a teapot on the top shelf. He lifted the lid, revealing a Spirit Water shimmering inside.
Seeing this, Summon, who was standing nearby, raised an eyebrow.
"Celestial One True Water?"
Lü Yang’s eyes brightened at the name. The essence of all waters, the quintessence of pure yin. A single drop could become a river or an ocean. It was a Top-Grade Spiritual Material for refining a Blessed Land.
"It’s said this item embodies the concept of ’Heaven begets the first water, and Earth completes it with the sixth.’ Therefore, you only need to take one drop a day and let it circulate within a Blessed Land for thirty-six days. This will maximize the Blessed Land’s potential, building a sufficient foundation for its eventual ascension into a Grotto Heaven."
At this thought, Lü Yang immediately looked toward the Celestial Python.
The Celestial Python nodded. "That’s right. My father prepared this for me, waiting for me to form my own Blessed Land so I could bring it to Perfection quickly."
"..."
’Damn rich kid!’
While internally denouncing this shameless practice of relying on resources for Cultivation, Lü Yang stowed all the Celestial One True Water into his Li Hen Heaven.
’Mine now!’
And he wasn’t done. He then pocketed the teapot as well. After all, anything capable of holding such a potent Spirit Water had to be an Artifact itself!
"What’s next?"
Lü Yang’s gaze shifted to an official seal on the second shelf of the left-hand bookshelf. Engraved upon it was a line of large characters: Yanxiu Xianying Fen Shui Longjun.
’This is... the Dragon Race’s Merit and Fortune!?’ Lü Yang held the Enchanted Seal, weighing it in his hand. He immediately felt an unprecedented heft. Examining it with his Exquisite Heart, his vision filled with a hazy mist. In a trance, he seemed to see a vision of ten thousand dragons galloping across the sky, summoning clouds and conjuring rain.
’Of course. This was the Dragon Monarch’s preparation for joining the Dao Court...’
He’d been quite thorough, even deciding on his Official Position. This represented an enormous amount of Fortune. Using it to power the Divination Lottery would almost certainly draw a result of Great Fortune!
Lü Yang thought for a moment, then pocketed the seal.
"Mine now!"
On the third shelf of the left-hand bookshelf sat a piece of Jade Stone with seven orifices. It pulsed faintly like a living creature, constantly inhaling and exhaling a massive amount of Spiritual Qi.
"This item is called the Separation and Union Jade Gui."
The Celestial Python explained from the side, "It has seven orifices. If you drip a drop of your heart’s blood into it, you can transfer various external forces acting upon you into the Jade Gui."
"The more external energy the Jade Gui absorbs, the more of its innate orifices will close. Once all seven are sealed, it means the Jade Gui is saturated and can no longer be used. You must then spend time refining it with the fire of your Mana until the seven orifices reopen, allowing it to be used again."
It was a protective Artifact.
If the Celestial Python had been carrying this Separation and Union Jade Gui back then, Lü Yang wasn’t sure he could have defeated him. The python might have actually managed to escape.
"Also mine!"
With a flick of his wide sleeve, Lü Yang stored it away.
He then did the same thing again, dismantling the now-empty left bookshelf and storing it away, determined not to leave a single scrap behind for the Dragon Race.
The bookshelf on the right.
On the top shelf was a small chest, which also required a bloodline authentication to open. The moment Lü Yang opened it, a tidal wave of Spiritual Qi washed over him.
HISS!
’So much! So vast! So packed!’
It appeared to be just a small chest, but it contained a hidden space nearly thirty miles wide, where all sorts of Spiritual Materials were piled up into small mountains!
These were clearly the rare and marvelous treasures the Dragon Race had plundered from Overseas during their countless years of dominance. There was Spirit Wood, Spiritual Fire, Spirit Water, Spiritual Soil, and Spirit Iron... all Five Elements were represented, with nothing missing. Furthermore, they had all clearly been carefully selected and even seemed to complement one another.
"My father prepared these as well."
The Celestial Python hurriedly explained, "He was waiting for me to refine a Blessed Land, so I could use these Spiritual Materials to construct a Five Elements cycle within it. This would increase the probability of it evolving into a Grotto Heaven..."
At this, the Celestial Python sounded a little wistful.
"Actually, there were several times more of these Spiritual Materials a few thousand years ago. It’s just a pity my elder brother used up more than half of them in his attempt at Seeking Gold..."
Lü Yang: "..."
’Such a monstrous waste!’
For a moment, Lü Yang’s eyes turned red.
To think that after using so many Spiritual Materials, the Celestial Python of his past life had still been single-handedly killed by Summon. It was clear that giving these to the Celestial Python was just an outrageous waste.
’To prevent such a tragedy from happening again, I’ll have to bear this burden myself...’
At this thought, Lü Yang waved his hand grandly, sweeping all the Spiritual Materials from the chest into his Li Hen Heaven. Of course, he didn’t spare the chest itself.
’I’ll take everything!’
The final item was a Crystal Ball. Lü Yang peered into it and saw a vast, boundless ocean and a magnificent landscape within.
’This is a Blessed Land... no, it’s a Grotto Heaven!’
’A Grotto Heaven Fragment!’
At that moment, Lü Yang was once again profoundly shocked by the obscene wealth of the True Dragon Race. It was no wonder they didn’t dare let a single whisper of this get out.
Putting everything else aside, if the Stain Sect ever found out about this, the Dragon Palace would never know a day of peace again.
"This is a fragment of the Celestial Covering Purifying Profound Grotto Heaven."
The Celestial Python explained once again, "It was supposedly left behind by a Dragon Monarch of old who was on the same level as my father. The Fruit he mastered was precisely the Fruit of Sky-River Water."
"According to my father’s plan, if our race could produce another Dragon Monarch who attains the Fruit of Sky-River Water, they could refine this Grotto Heaven Fragment. It would greatly accelerate the development of their own Grotto Heaven and shorten the time needed to advance to the Middle Stage of Golden Core. However, to this day, no dragon has been able to use it..."
"Mine now!"
Before he even finished speaking, Lü Yang had already pocketed the Crystal Ball. His hands were trembling with excitement. He had, without a doubt, struck it rich this time!
"There’s no time to lose. Let’s get out of here!"
Lü Yang’s expression was tense. No matter how many resources he had, simply carrying them made him a target. Only by using them and converting them into actual power would he be able to rest easy!
’At this rate... could it be that in this life, I might also have a chance to attempt Seeking Gold?’
Soon, Lü Yang had dismantled the empty right-hand bookshelf and stored it away as well.
"This treasury is so large and can hold so many good things. It must be an Artifact in its own right... Let’s dig up the floor and take down the ceiling!"
He wasn’t a greedy person, of course.
He just felt that since he’d already emptied the treasury, the Dragon Monarch would surely be heartbroken upon his return. It was better to just take the whole thing. Out of sight, out of mind.
Ah, what a truly benevolent person I am!
