Chapter 101: Youth-Preserving Pill
Helpless, Luo Yao could only go to those collapsed palaces to see if she could find anything good.
Not long after walking, Luo Yao saw a skeleton lying in the collapsed main hall; her brows immediately furrowed, and she approached cautiously.
Although Luo Yao was not a coroner, she knew some common sense; this skeleton absolutely could not be from the ancient era, meaning it was recent, within the last few years or even decades.
This also meant that others had visited the Secret Realm.
Luo Yao quickly discovered a Storage Bag beneath that skeleton and couldn't help but show a look of joy.
Obviously, that person had deliberately placed the Storage Bag behind their back before dying, not wanting others to discover it.
Unfortunately, although she found other Pills, in Luo Yao's view, none were as precious as the Youth-Preserving Pill.
"Mid-grade Spirit Stones."
With a wave of her hand, that Storage Bag flew into Luo Yao's grasp.
Consuming the Youth-Preserving Pill allows one to remain forever young, never aging.
Luo Yao never expected to find such a good thing upon arriving.
There were a full ten Mid-grade Spirit Stones.
The spiritual energy inside would then restore itself.
This kind of Array-Breaking Talisman is extremely precious.
With the Youth-Preserving Pill, Luo Yao felt even more anticipation for the surroundings.
Thinking of this, she decisively put away these Talisman Papers, then impatiently went to one of the palaces.
The Seven-Colored Dice spun dizzily on the Array-Breaking Talisman, and then a number appeared.
I've struck it rich, I've struck it rich!
With so many Array-Breaking Talismans, the treasures in the surrounding palaces were all fated to be hers.
That's right, there were exactly twenty-seven sheets.
Soon, she finished exploring this place and turned to leave the Array.
Inside, quite a few Jade Slips were placed.
This was an irresistible temptation for any female cultivator.
However, it was said that the formula for the Youth-Preserving Pill had been lost in ancient times; that is to say, later generations could not refine it, and even if there were substitutes, the effect was not true eternal youth.
Of course, all this was too far from Luo Yao; she had not yet broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.
After two hours, Luo Yao had finished exploring the palaces around her; as for the harvest, naturally, she had gained a fortune.
However, even though they were empty bottles, she did not want to let any go; after all, they were white jade bottles, worth a few Spirit Stones each, and with such quantity, at the very least, she would not need to buy bottles in the future.
This seemed to be a room like a Library Pavilion.
"Good things."
Those palaces were still guarded by Arrays, which obviously indicated precious items inside, but it seemed they were not fated for her, but with these Array-Breaking Talismans...
An Array-Breaking Talisman had an effect lasting one hour.
That is to say, it could be used cyclically.
Luo Yao left this Pill Room and easily entered the adjacent palace.
No, or rather, for the person who took the Jade Slips, what was left was unimportant, but for Spirit Herbs, these were all very important.
Of course, Luo Yao did not immediately use this Talisman Paper.
Luo Yao also did not expect to find the legendary Mid-grade Spirit Stones, but thinking about it, this was a sect from the ancient era, so it made sense.
Although at most it could only be exchanged for a thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones, Mid-grade Spirit Stones had a characteristic: after consuming the spiritual energy inside, as long as they were placed in a place with dense spiritual energy...
Entering the palace, Luo Yao discovered this was a Pill Room; inside stood three or four shelves, which seemed originally to have held Pills.
As long as it was attached to the body, one could enter the Array at will, never triggering the Array.
Afterwards, Luo Yao saw a flash of white light, and the Array-Breaking Talisman in her hand turned into twenty-seven sheets.
Luo Yao's eyes sparkled, and she quickly put away these Jade Slips; as for sorting them by category, she left that to Xiao Kui and A Li.
If she broke through to the Golden Core Stage or even the Nascent Soul Stage in the future, she would be qualified to establish a sect, and these things would be the foundation of a sect.
Before, seeing so many Spirit Stones would have made her too excited to sleep, but now she was already used to it.
"Black Iron Stone?"
Unfortunately, many were empty.
"Eh!"
Seeing the name written beside the Pill, Luo Yao immediately showed a look of wild joy; such a Pill, not to mention the Immortal Cultivation World, even in her past life, she had heard of it.
"Youth-Preserving Pill?"
Instead, she took out her Golden Finger again.
"Eh, this is, an Array-Breaking Talisman?"
But it seemed he forgot that cultivators did not just use their eyes to find things; Divine Sense was the most convenient method.
One Mid-grade Spirit Stone could be exchanged for one hundred Low-grade Spirit Stones, and the spiritual energy it contained was one hundred times that of a Low-grade Spirit Stone.
There was not much inside, especially very few Pills and Spirit Herbs; it seemed that for some reason this person was injured, and to survive, he ate all his own Pills, but in the end, he still died.
Besides Dharma Artifacts, there were also quite a few forging materials, which gave Luo Yao some gain.
"Just right, since the Library Pavilion of Li Huo Zhu Li is empty, having these Jade Slips provides at least some foundation."
Some seemed to have expired because they were not stored properly, turning into white ash.
Therefore, she still decided to keep them, to use later as a favor.
This was exactly what Luo Yao needed now.
Consuming one grants eternal youth; as for the others, one for Yan Jie, and the rest to be sold, which would definitely make a huge profit.
Luo Yao discovered several boxes placed at the very bottom of the shelf; opening them revealed a jade bottle.
Then, whatever is inside belongs to her by fate.
"I've struck it rich!"
Luo Yao opened a sandalwood box, inside which lay a talisman paper; she had seen this talisman paper in ancient texts before, so she recognized it at a glance.
And there were fully ten, twenty, or even more books here.
It was a pity she was too young now to take them, unless she waited until she turned eighteen.
Even low-grade ones were extremely precious, worth several thousand Spirit Stones.
Array-Breaking Talisman; as the name suggests, it could naturally break arrays.
Profound Grade cultivation techniques! In the Xuanyuan Sect, one could hardly find a single Profound Grade technique.
This made Luo Yao so happy she nearly jumped off the ground.
But now those Pills were gone; however, there were still quite a few bottles and jars on the shelves.
Because the owner had died, the Storage Bag held no prohibitions, so Luo Yao easily filled it with her Divine Sense.
Extremely precious, extremely rare.
But now she lacked no money, and items as precious as the Youth-Preserving Pill would absolutely drive people mad if taken out; by then, even those in the Foundation Establishment Stage or Golden Core Stage would come knocking, and she simply could not hold them back.
She went to a Palace, inside which were Spirit Stones piled half a person high; although Luo Yao did not count them roughly, she estimated there were hundreds of thousands.
All sorts of cultivation techniques and secret arts, with many even being Profound Grade techniques.
However, what she discovered later in the secret chamber of that room made Luo Yao overjoyed.
Additionally, Luo Yao opened a bottle; the Youth-Preserving Pill was preserved very well, had not lost its efficacy, and there were five pills inside.
"3!"
"The Profound Nether Art, the Profound Yang Art..."
Luo Yao herself, of course, continued to seek treasure and explore.
She took a deep breath, then pasted the Array-Breaking Talisman onto her body and stepped forward into the Palace.
There was no rejection by the array as she had imagined; instead, it was like entering water, with little resistance.
Luo Yao only glanced over them roughly; these Jade Slips had already had some taken, and what remained were actually all unimportant ones.
However, there were some Dharma Artifacts; although Luo Yao did not care for them, they could be sold for money.
Thus, this characteristic made Mid-grade Spirit Stones precious.
It was a pity Luo Yao did not find any High-grade Spirit Stones; although somewhat regrettable, Mid-grade Spirit Stones were still a good harvest.
