Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The cave is not big, covering an area of ​​only two to three hundred feet. For a Jindan monk, this cave is relatively simple. It is similar to ordinary caves, with a front yard and a back yard.

Tangning didn't rush in. She sat cross-legged and swallowed a pill to restore her previously depleted spiritual power.

This Jindan monk from the Jiangdong branch can arrange three puppets in the formation just in case. Who knows that he won't create an ambush in the main room and the auxiliary room of the cave?

It's better to be cautious in everything. The big man didn't rush in just now, but just sat cross-legged to recover his spiritual power. Maybe he didn't have this level of thinking.

After about an hour or two, the spiritual power in Tangning's body had returned to its original state. He opened his eyes and stood up. He took out the black flag with his left hand and pointed his finger towards the flag. Spiritual power was injected into it. The black flag rose in the wind and sprayed out. The billowing black mist enveloped his figure and hugged him as he walked into the cave.

After passing through the courtyard, I came to the main room of the cave, but I saw that the main room was empty except for a stone bed and a futon on the ground.

Tang Ning felt relieved and went to the auxiliary room. There were rows of cabinets in the auxiliary room.

He looked around and saw nothing out of the ordinary, then walked to the cabinet and opened it. He saw that the cabinet was full of black porcelain bottles. This was true for several rows of cabinets. They were all black porcelain bottles.

Tang Ning had already roughly guessed what it was. He took out a few bottles from each cabinet and looked at them. It was as he expected. These porcelain bottles were all filled with elixirs. There were thousands of bottles ranging from Bigu Pills to Wanling Pills. There is also a cabinet that contains more than a hundred bottles of second-level elixirs such as Vitality Pills and Strengthening Pills.

He was overjoyed to see that these pills alone were already valuable. He left this room and went to another auxiliary room. The layout of this room was exactly the same as that of the auxiliary room next to it, with rows of cabinets arranged in rows.

He opened it and saw that there were storage bags inside the cabinet. Each storage bag contained nearly a thousand crystal clear low-grade spiritual stones. There were more than a thousand storage bags in total, a total of one hundred. More than 400,000 spirit stones.

Two of the storage bags contain medium-grade spiritual stones. These more than 1.4 million spiritual stones are a huge wealth for an individual, but they are obviously not enough for a tribe. There are more than a hundred disciples in the Jiangdong branch. Even if they are all divided, each person will be divided into 10,000 spiritual stones.

Not to mention foundation-building disciples, even Qi-refining disciples would need two thousand spirit stones for a top-quality magic weapon. If it were to attack foundation-building, the total cost of foundation-building pills, cloud water arrays, Qingxin bells, etc. would also cost eight or nine thousand spirit stones. .

There are seven or eight such auxiliary rooms in the entire cave. In addition to elixirs, spiritual stones, talismans, and magical instruments, there are also storage rooms dedicated to various materials, such as elixirs, materials for refining weapons, materials for making talismans, and materials for refining corpses. Puppet materials and so on.

There were so many things that Tang Ning was at a loss as to what to do. It was impossible for him to take all of them away at once. After thinking about it for a while, he made a plan in mind. First, he took the "valuable" second-level elixirs and middle-level spiritual stones. Bring the stuff back to the sect.

These are all that I can use, and then I will replace all the low-grade spiritual stones and low-grade elixirs with medium-grade spiritual stones in Netherworld Valley.

The rest of the materials were moved away one after another, whether they were brought back to the sect or hidden somewhere else! Anyway, it can't be left here forever. Who knows if other Demon Sect disciples will find it here.

Tang Ning put the second-level elixir and more than ten spiritual weapons in the auxiliary room into a storage bag. He found thirteen spiritual weapons in the storage room where the magical weapons were stored.

To say that the Jiangdong tribe is really poor, there are only thirteen spiritual weapons in the entire storage room, not even a top-grade spiritual weapon, only one high-grade spiritual weapon, four medium-grade spiritual weapons, and the other eight are all Low grade spiritual weapon.

After putting away these valuable things, he left the cave and carefully observed the position of the array flags and array altar. He took out the black disk with his left hand and fiddled with it a few times, then reopened the array. The array flags rose in the wind, and the array Blue brilliance gushes out from the altar.

About half a day later, a blue light curtain had formed. Tangning walked out of the underground secret passage, came to the cave, and turned into escaping light.

The caves in the Jingping Mountains are only two to three hundred miles away from Jingyun County, but Tang Ning fled for nearly a day. Gein carried too much weight on his body, which greatly affected the speed of his escape. When he arrived at the Taoist Temple in Niu Mang Mountain, It was already late at night, and Yu Xiao was shocked to see him return: "Tang, Uncle Tang, you are back."

"What's wrong?" Tangning asked, seeing that he didn't look right.

"I thought you were missing, uncle!" Yu Xiao said sarcastically. It turned out that Tang Ning had disappeared for more than 20 days since she left the Taoist temple. He reported the matter to the sect through the Black Eagle Submission, and the Intelligence Department has not yet heard of it. When there was no news, he assumed that Tang Ning was murdered and disappeared, so he was shocked when he saw the real person.

Tangning smiled and said, "Have you reported it to the Ministry of Science and Technology?"

"Yes, according to regulations, disciples from the Intelligence Department go out to perform tasks. If there are no special circumstances, they will be considered missing if they lose contact within five days. You didn't say hello when you left. I waited for seven or eight days, and even asked people to go to Shen's house to inquire. Your message, so..."

"I am here to tell you that I have found out the traces and purpose of the disciples of the Demon Sect. These people originally belonged to the Jiangdong branch of the Corpse Sect. They came here to find a secret treasure. Their leading monk has been killed by me. I believe they have Those Demon Sect disciples will leave soon."

"I was about to report to Uncle Master that we discovered traces of those Demon Sect monks a few days ago. Since you couldn't contact us, I reported to the sect three days ago and requested that I send my disciples to investigate."

Tang Ning nodded: "I will return to the sect tomorrow. The remaining demon sect monks will be handed over to the disciples of the action team. If they are discovered, they will be killed!"

"Yes." Yu Xiao responded: "Uncle Master, you said they came here to find a secret treasure. What kind of treasure is it?"

"They are some things left here by the former leaders of the Jiangdong tribe. They didn't have time to take them away."

"Oh, I see. I wonder if we can have any secret treasures in Jiangdong."

"Get out! I want to rest."

"Yes." Yu Xiao exited his retreat room and closed the door.

At dawn the next day, Tang Ning left the Taoist temple and fled all the way through the mountains and ridges for seven or eight days before returning to the Qianyi Sect. She immediately wrote a dossier and gave it to Lu Xingxian, telling the whole story.

Of course, he concealed everything about the assets left behind by the Jiangdong tribe, and made up a story, saying only that he had investigated their traces and purpose, and killed the leading monk of the Demon Sect.

"Senior Brother Lu, I came back this time specifically to report this matter to you. I still have some matters to deal with in my mortal life. I will leave the sect in a few days."

Lu Xingxian put away the file and nodded: "Go and report to Qingxuan Hall."

Tang Ning exited Lu Xingxian Cave Mansion and went to the Secret Academy Office. A disciple on duty came to greet him: "Uncle Tang, what are your orders?"

"I have some personal matters and I have to leave the sect. I came here to handle the entry and exit regulations."

"Uncle Master, please follow me." The disciple led him to the second floor of the attic and saluted the middle-aged man sitting cross-legged on the futon in the middle: "Uncle Xu, Uncle Tang from the Intelligence Department is here."

The middle-aged man opened his eyes and said: "Junior Brother Tang, why do you, the disciples of the Intelligence Department, have to go there personally for such trivial matters as entering and exiting the sect?"

Tang Ning handed over a piece of paper and smiled: "This is a private matter, so it is better to follow the sect's rules and regulations. I have some matters to deal with outside, so I came to ask Senior Brother Xu to approve the paper."

The man surnamed Xu took the article without even looking at it, and directly stamped it with the seal of the Secret Academy. Tang Ning took the article and went to Qingxuan Hall to have it stamped. When she returned to the cave, she remembered that she hadn't fed Xiaobai any pills for a while. As for the spirit-exploring rat, I don’t know what it feeds on, whether it takes pills or spiritual stones.

He took out the spirit beast bag and patted it gently, pouring spiritual power into it.

He didn't see the little white snake sticking its head out for a while. He was puzzled, and when his spiritual consciousness poured into it, he saw that in the empty space of the spirit beast bag, the little white snake was lingering in the center, as if it was sleeping soundly.

There was no trace of the spirit-detecting rat inside, and only a few strands of white hair remained on the ground. Tangning couldn't help but be shocked.

The first thought that came to my mind was that the spirit-detecting rat had escaped, but I quickly dismissed it. I kept the spirit beast bag on my body, so where could it escape to?

If you look closely, you can see that there are a few strands of hair on the white snake's snow-white body. Could it be that... the little white snake swallowed the spirit rat?

Tangning was shocked and confused.

It is a law of all things that snakes eat rats, but the little white snake has no spiritual power at all, but the spirit-detecting rat is a real spiritual beast. Although its combat power is not high, it cannot be underestimated. Its sharp and sharp teeth can eat gold and jade like food. Rotten grass, two pairs of sharp claws raking away the earth and rocks like sweeping fallen leaves.

It is definitely a ferocious animal, how could it be swallowed by a little white snake with no spiritual power!

And it is not necessarily too shocking to think that its three-inch body can eat such a huge creature.

Tang Ning looked at the sleeping little white snake and fell into deep thought for a moment. The little white snake had a good background. It was originally escaped from the ancient ruins in Jingbei. The ancient ruins had been sealed for countless thousands of years. The little white snake's egg shell It was sealed until the seal of the ancient ruins was broken, and it was able to break out.

If it was true that it swallowed the spirit rat, then it must have some kind of ability that she hadn't noticed yet. Tang Ning thought about it carefully. She had been feeding it pills over the years and had never let it fight an enemy in battle.

If you have some kind of magical power, you really don't have a chance to use it.

Moreover, it has taken so many elixirs and has not changed at all. Could it be that the feeding method is wrong? What it needs is not the spiritual power of elixirs, but the essence of flesh and blood.

Tangning's consciousness exited the spirit beast bag. No matter what, she decided to wait for it to wake up.

The whole night, he was thinking about the abnormal behavior of the little white snake.

The sky turned white the next day. Tang Ning went to the Mountain Protection Department to register, and then left the sect and fled away. The reason why he went back to the sect specifically was to put away the valuable things in his storage bag. After returning to the cave, the second was to inform Lu Xingxian of the details of the mission.

After all, he was out on a departmental mission and had the mission of finding out the purpose of the Demon Sect disciples. If he didn't explain this matter clearly, and he didn't return for a long time, and there was no news, it couldn't be justified both emotionally and rationally.

After completing his duties, he left the sect again for personal matters this time. If he stayed outside for a longer time, others would not be able to control him.
