Fairy Eye

He discovered something that surprised him.

With the blessing of the Tongtian Dharma Realm, his divine sense could not only cover the inside of the cave, but also extend far out from the cave entrance.

After a round of refining, Han Lin discovered that the spiritual energy outside the cave had not yet recovered.

However, the spiritual energy inside the cave was restored to its original state within a mere quarter of an hour! Such a speed of recovery was simply illogical.

You must understand that a quarter of an hour inside the Tongtian Dharma Realm is only about fifty breaths in the outside world! How could the spiritual energy of heaven and earth recover so quickly?

In other places, it would have been impossible to recover in less than half an hour!

Han Lin thought about it again and again but still couldn't understand the reason. He simply assumed that this was a natural treasure land for cultivation! So he shook his head and continued to cultivate.

Dark as ink.

Most of the Guiyuan Mountains were quiet.

But outside a certain mist-shrouded stone mountain, a sword light suddenly flew in. Standing on it was a tall and handsome middle-aged man in a purple robe.

The sword light paused slightly in mid-air, then slanted downwards, piercing into the clouds and landing outside a cave at the foot of the stone mountain.

Above the entrance to the cave, the three large characters "Treasure Cave" are clearly written.

A young man who was sitting cross-legged suddenly opened his eyes. When he saw the person who had just arrived, he stood up in surprise: "Greetings, Sect Leader!"

The sect leader? This person is actually Yu Gucheng, the sect leader of the Guiyuan Sect!

"Um."

Yu Gucheng gave a curt reply and strode into the cave.

The passageway inside was not wide and was winding, with many side paths along the way, but Yu Gucheng did not stop until he came to a cave entrance with the words "Mineral Area" hanging on it, at which point he finally stopped.

The cave entrance was open, and you could see that the space inside was very spacious. There was an old man with gray hair sitting cross-legged on the ground, facing a huge piece of blue and white jade.

Seemingly sensing Yu Gucheng's arrival, the old man turned around, glanced at him, and quickly stood up to greet him: "Sect Leader, you've arrived."

"Is this the giant blue-and-white jade you were talking about?" Yu Gucheng walked over, staring at the enormous jade stone on the ground with a look of astonishment.

"Exactly."

"It's truly rare. Since the Qinglong River mine began operations, has such a huge piece of blue-and-white jade ever appeared?" Yu Gucheng slowly circled the jade, marveling at it.

"Yes, when I first heard about this, I thought Liu Zhihu was just bragging, but when I saw it with my own eyes, I was quite shocked."

The old man smiled and nodded. "Sect Leader, such a huge piece of blue-and-white jade would be a waste to give it to the Hundred Refinements Hall to be refined into ordinary jade talismans. What do you plan to do with it?"

Yu Gucheng shook his head and said, "I haven't thought about it yet. Let's leave it in the treasure cave for now, and we'll figure it out later..."

As Yu Gucheng was speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a purple light flashing from a certain spot on the jade stone.

But when he turned his head to look, he was as calm as ever.

"Sect Leader, what's wrong?"

The old man looked puzzled upon seeing this.

Yu Gucheng frowned. "Did you see that jade stone seemed to flash a purple light just now?"

"Purple light? That's impossible. How could a blue-and-white jade piece glow with purple light?"

"That's true, or maybe I'm seeing things."

Yu Gucheng stared at the jade for a couple more seconds. "Alright, Elder Liu, let's leave this jade here. I'll be going now."

"Respectfully seeing off the sect leader."

The old man bent down to see them off.

After Yu Gucheng left, he sat cross-legged on the ground again and closed his eyes to cultivate.

But not long after, a cracking sound suddenly rang in his ears, and the old man opened his eyes in surprise.

To my surprise, a crack appeared on the surface of the jade stone in front of me.

Snap, snap, snap snap snap...

As soon as the first crack appeared, it seemed like a chain reaction, and the cracks on the surface of the jade suddenly expanded rapidly.

"not good!"

The old man was shocked and hurriedly got up and pointed at the jade from a distance, sending out a blue light that enveloped the jade in an attempt to stop the crack from expanding further.

This jade has already been entered into the sect's accounts. If any problems arise, he will definitely be charged with negligence in its supervision.

His true energy did indeed have an effect, causing the rapidly expanding cracks to pause briefly.

But just as the old man was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the jade in front of him suddenly shattered with a loud bang, sending countless fragments flying everywhere.

At the same time, a beam of purple light shot out from the center of the jade stone and flew out from the direction of the cave entrance in the blink of an eye.

"Jade, the spirit of jade!"

The old man emerged from the flying debris and cried out in surprise upon seeing this scene.

"Don't leave!"

Then, in a flash, it flew out of the cave.

However, when he arrived at the outer passage, the purple light had vanished. The old man closed his eyes, then seemed to realize something and immediately chased after it along the passage.

"Did you see a purple light fly out?" The old man chased after the treasure cave, then suddenly stopped outside the entrance and asked the young man guarding the gate.

"I saw it."

"Where did they go?"

"No, I don't know. I only saw it flash by and then it disappeared."

"You guard this place well, I'm going out to find it."

The old man's face was somewhat grim. He gave the young man an instruction, then summoned a flying sword, stepped on it, and soared out of the mountains.

……

On the other side, the Milky Way Valley.

It was already past midnight, and Han Lin, who had been cultivating in the cave for most of the night, felt extremely tired.

Although the spiritual energy here is abundant and the recovery speed is extremely fast, the thought of having to work tomorrow forced me to stop here.

He withdrew the Heavenly Realm and looked at an inconspicuous crevice at the base of the opposite cave.

After a night of cultivation, he discovered a problem: the reason why the spiritual energy here recovered so quickly was because it was coming out of that crack in the stone.

It seemed as if some kind of spiritual energy source existed inside that crevice in the stone.

However, the crevice was too narrow, only about the width of a palm, so even if he wanted to explore it, he couldn't get in.

After glancing at it twice, Han Lin stood up and prepared to leave.

call out--!

Just then, a sharp sound suddenly rang out outside the cave, startling Han Lin, who immediately stopped in his tracks.

Before he could investigate, a beam of purple light burst through the cave entrance, and then something heavy seemed to fall in front of him with a thud.

Han Lin looked down and found that a short sword had appeared out of nowhere on the ground.

This short sword is only about the length of an adult's palm, but also about the width of a palm. It is dark purple all over and looks short and chubby, like a little fat boy.

Han Lin stared in astonishment, hesitated for a moment, then bent down and picked it up. For some reason, he felt a strange sense of familiarity with the chubby short sword.

It was as if the sword was a part of his body.

"Strange, why do I have this feeling? And this is too strange, a short sword flying in out of thin air in the middle of the night?"

Han Lin scratched his head, feeling like he was dreaming.

However, although this short sword doesn't look very appealing, the edges of the blade do appear quite sharp. Could it be a treasure as well?

Thinking of this, Han Lin's eyes lit up, and without caring about anything else, he directly stuffed the short sword into his pocket.

He then secretly sneaked back to the camp and fell fast asleep.
