Chapter 162 Cave Treasures
"This is……"
Chu Ning recalled the scene she "saw" just now, feeling horrified.
“Could this be the remaining images of the great masters from this ancient sect?
But why can I see it? "
Chu Ning would not think that such a vivid scene was just imagined out of thin air.
You know, in the scene just now, he could even see the faces of the people in front of him clearly.
Chu Ning moved forward carefully and came to the last seat.
He released his spiritual sense and sensed it carefully.
There was nothing unusual about the seat.
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Ning reached out and gently touched the seat.
"..."
The next moment, the simple-looking chair scattered silently when Chu Ning touched it, turning into bursts of powder and scattering on the ground.
"It's really old, so even though these seats appear to be made of fine spiritual wood, they have been completely weathered."
Chu Ning murmured softly and wanted to turn around and leave directly.
But after thinking about it, he accidentally touched the other chairs one by one.
These chairs, like the first chair, turned into powder one after another.
It wasn't until the thirteen chairs below were crushed into powder that Chu Ning shook his head.
He did want to see if there would be anything special on it.
After all, a magical image just appeared here.
But it turned out that he was still too whimsical.
At this moment, Chu Ning climbed up the steps and came to the two main seats.
These two seats are obviously more refined than the ones below.
There were patterns carved on it that Chu Ning didn't quite recognize, but felt quite impressive.
On the two armchairs, there are two armrests in the shape of monsters of different shapes.
The armrest on one of the chairs is a bird-shaped monster that resembles a phoenix.
The armrest on the other chair is a monster with a shape similar to the body of a cow.
After watching it for a long time, Chu Ning reached out and touched the chair on the left gently.
Suddenly, the seat turned into powder and fell to the ground.
"Ding Dong!"
But then, a crisp sound came into his ears.
Chu Ning followed the sound and saw a dark red, almost black ring falling from each of the two chairs.
After looking around for a while, Chu Ning discovered that these two rings actually fell out of the mouth of the phoenix monster on the armrest.
Although Phoenix opened his mouth slightly before, Chu Ning did not come forward to take a closer look, so he did not notice that there was something in the two mouths.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ning knelt down and picked up the two rings in his hands.
Chu Ning immediately felt a powerful power, and in it, Chu Ning also felt a very obvious fire attribute aura.
"This thing makes me feel very much like..."
Chu Ning observed the two rings, and the next moment, a brilliant light flashed in his eyes.
Because the feeling of power this thing gave him at this time was very similar to the state after being activated by the black knife before.
"With such power without stimulation, is it possible that these rings are real magic weapons?"
Chu Ning was surprised and happy, and he tried to inject mana into one of the rings.
However, the infusion of mana into it was like a stone sinking into the ocean.
The ring didn't react at all.
Chu Ning thought for a while and tried to inject mana again with a ring in one hand.
But just like before, the mana was injected into it, but the ring still didn't react at all.
Chu Ning tried to release his spiritual consciousness, but he couldn't sense the inside of the ring.
"Is this also an incomplete magic weapon, with the same restrictions on use as the black knife?"
Chu Ning frowned slightly, but this was obviously not the time to check the research.
Put the two rings in a jade box and put them in the storage bag.
Then, he looked at the other chair beside him.
Chu Ning did not touch the chair directly, but first approached the armrest and looked inside.
Sure enough, I found that there was something in the open mouth of the cow, and something like a ball was vaguely visible.
Chu Ning stretched out her hand and touched the two handrails directly.
As expected, the two handrails also broke at the touch, and at the same time, a spherical object fell from each one.
Before the two balls fell to the ground, Chu Ning reached out to catch them.
I saw two round balls about the size of eggs, with a dark green appearance. When I held them in my hands, I immediately felt an extremely strange but violent aura of power.
"Is this the breath of thunder?"
Chu Ning's eyes flashed with surprise, and he tried to inject mana into it for a little while.
Not surprisingly, the two spheres also showed no reaction at all.
“These things should still be usable, after all, they can inject mana.
This is completely different from that black knife that is restricted in use and cannot even inject mana. "
Chu Ning thought to herself, took out a jade box again, and put the two balls into the storage bag.
After scanning the hall, Chu Ning found nothing special.
He no longer felt nostalgic, and walked along the wide aisle on the side of the hall towards the back of the hall.
This road turned out to be smooth, which made Chu Ning breathe a sigh of relief.
After arriving at the main hall, I saw that there were layers of caves in the back.
There are eight floors, each floor is hundreds of feet long, with caves on the left and right.
The eighth floor was already so high that Chu Ning couldn't see it clearly with his eyesight.
Chu Ning looked at the caves in front of him, and saw that they were almost all in ruins.
If it weren't for the names of the caves written on each floor, Chu Ning really couldn't tell that they were once immortal cultivation caves.
"The eighth floor, could it be corresponding to the fifteen cultivators in front?"
Chu Ning muttered to himself and began to walk up the wide stairs.
At this time, Chu Ning tried to release the puppet bird again.
To his surprise, the puppet bird could fly at this moment.
In this case, Chu Ning drove the puppet bird directly to the cave on the first floor.
The puppet bird circled in the cave, and there were collapsed things everywhere, and there was no other discovery.
There were no artifacts, not even spiritual plants and herbs.
After seeing that there was no danger, Chu Ning also walked into the cave to take a look.
He even used his spiritual sense to investigate, but he didn't notice anything special.
Climbing up the steps, Chu Ning checked six or seven caves in succession, and they were all the same.
So he quickened his pace.
When he reached the sixth floor, Chu Ning suddenly stopped.
He looked at a cave on the left with some doubt.
The place where the name of the cave was engraved on it was broken, and it was impossible to tell what was written.
However, Chu Ning could still infer the general situation from the previous position.
"If I guessed correctly before.
This seems to be the cave of an old man with black hair and short beard among the thirteen people sitting below.
Why is the spiritual energy in this cave obviously higher than before, and it vaguely gives me a feeling of life."
Chu Ning was indeed a little surprised. He had walked in this ruins for so long.
Until now, he had not felt any breath of life, not even flowers and plants.
But at this moment, under his sensitive spiritual sense, he could clearly feel the difference of this cave.
Driving the puppet bird into the cave, Chu Ning took the magic mirror to check the scene inside.
"Are there any spiritual medicines?"
The next moment, Chu Ning's eyes lit up.
However, he did not dare to enter the cave directly, but asked Ling Xiaobai:
"Xiaobai, is there any restriction in this cave?"
Ling Xiaobai stuck his head out to sense it, then jumped down from Chu Ning's sleeve and went directly into the cave.
At the entrance of the cave, Ling Xiaobai suddenly turned his head.
"Yes!"
Just when Chu Ning was a little surprised, Ling Xiaobai's next sentence came.
"There are food!"
Chu Ning heard it and was a little amused.
But since the little guy said there were no restrictions, there must be no restrictions.
There must have been some major changes here before, otherwise it is unlikely that there would be no restrictions like these caves.
Even if it is a cave arranged by oneself, there will be a formation restriction.
Thinking so in his heart, a figure flashed, and Chu Ning followed Ling Xiaobai into the cave.
Soon, Chu Ning saw several spiritual medicines in the center of the cave.
The spiritual medicine is not tall, only about two inches long, and each plant has five leaves.
The leaves are light green, shaped like swords, with golden buds on the top.
The petals are covered with countless silk-like patterns, like stars under the sky.
"The rich spiritual energy and breath of life just now should have come from these spiritual medicines."
Chu Ning was muttering in his heart, Ling Xiaobai made a "嘤" sound and sent a voice to Chu Ning.
After Chu Ning heard it, a strange color flashed across his face.
"You said these spiritual medicines are called Tianyuan grass. If you take them, they will be of great help to your injuries?
How do you know their names?"
After Chu Ning asked, Ling Xiaobai shook his head.
Thinking that this little guy might be born with some inherited memories, such as the Xuanming Jue, Chu Ning was not surprised.
"What are the requirements for picking these spiritual medicines?"
Chu Ning asked again, and Ling Xiaobai came directly to the spiritual medicine and ate more than half of a spiritual medicine in one bite.
Before Chu Ning could say anything, the remaining half was pulled up from the ground by it, and then it ate it directly with the roots.
Seeing Ling Xiaobai's simple and rough method, Chu Ning was also stunned.
But when he saw that the little guy didn't seem to want to continue eating.
Chu Ning also came in and carefully picked all the Tianyuan grass.
Then he carefully packed it in the jade box.
At this time, Chu Ning began to look at the cave.
He found that this cave was obviously not as dilapidated as the previous one.
It just looked like no one had taken care of it for a long time.
Perhaps it was because of this that spiritual plants could still grow.
And several stone chambers were also intact.
Chu Ning went to three stone chambers in a row, most of which were empty.
Occasionally, there were items in one of them, but because they were too old, they had been weathered.
Walking into the last stone chamber, Chu Ning's eyes lit up slightly.
This stone chamber was very large, with an alchemy furnace in the middle, which turned out to be an alchemy room.
Chu Ning walked forward and came to a stone table next to the alchemy furnace.
He looked at the things on the table and felt quite surprised.
He saw that the table was covered with dust, but he could vaguely see a jade slip and a jade box, as well as a few stone-like objects.
Chu Ning carefully cast a spell over it and cleared all the dust on it.
After seeing that there were no other restrictions, he reached out and picked up the jade box and opened it.
I saw a completely withered and dried elixir inside.
Chu Ning reached out and touched it gently, and the elixir immediately turned into powder.
"It's been too long, even if it's stored in a jade box, it's useless."
Chu Ning shook her head and picked up the jade slip beside her.
After a brief exploration into the jade slip, Chu Ning's eyes suddenly became extremely bright.
""Spiritual Pill Collection"——Yi Changfeng"
After just a cursory glance, Chu Ning withdrew, with an unconcealable joy on his face.
"I wonder if this Yi Changfeng is the name of the old man with black hair and black beard, but this is actually a systematic alchemy technique written by him.
It not only includes some alchemy techniques from low to high, but also includes fire control techniques, the selection of elixirs and other aspects.
There are also many elixir prescriptions that he compiled by himself. Although I did not read them all, I only glanced at them briefly, but there are hundreds of kinds in them. "
Such a treasure, how could Chu Ning not be overjoyed.
For him who had just come into contact with the art of alchemy, if it weren't for the inappropriateness of this place, Chu Ning would have loved to read the entire "Spiritual Pill Collection" in one go.
Chu Ning carefully put the jade slip into the storage bag and put it away. It was a treasure.
At this moment, he couldn't help but speculate on the scene at that time.
Perhaps this senior was refining elixirs here, and then something suddenly happened, so that the other party casually placed the things on the stone table without even putting them down.
With this thought in mind, Chu Ning looked at the alchemy furnace ahead.
"This alchemy furnace is also of a very high grade. It can be used not only for earth fire, but also for flint. However, my alchemy furnace can only use earth fire."
Chu Ning muttered softly while cleaning all the ash on the surface of the alchemy furnace.
Of course he also knew that this high-end alchemy furnace naturally had far more benefits than this.
It has better performance in transferring heat, controlling the overflow of spiritual energy, etc.
This is like a good talisman pen, which can increase the success rate of alchemy.
Chu Ning casually opened the lid of the alchemy furnace with a wave of his hand.
Then he took a closer look and saw some pill slag faintly visible inside.
This is also roughly in line with Chu Ning's previous deduction. It seems that something happened too suddenly that year.
This senior had to stop even refining the elixir, and the elixir he was refining directly turned into elixir dregs.
Chu Ning did not clean it at the moment. After covering it back, he put the entire alchemy furnace and the flint on the table into the storage bag.
Then he looked around the entire alchemy room, and after seeing nothing else, he left the cave directly.
At this time, Chu Ning's eyes flashed with doubts.
If there was an unexpected battle in this ancient sect back then, why was it that the cave below was completely damaged but not on this level?
He looked at the cave on the right, released the puppet bird and flew in.
Finding that there was indeed no damage inside, he walked in again.
According to his previous inference, this should be the cave of a middle-aged monk with a face among the thirteen people.
Chu Ning walked into the cave and found that it was also intact.
However, the stone rooms were empty and nothing was found.
But when Chu Ning reached the last stone room and tried to enter the stone room in the cave, he was suddenly startled.
"Is there a restriction?"
Discovering that there were restrictions in this stone room, Chu Ning immediately called out Ling Xiaobai.
When Ling Xiaobai saw the restricted fluctuations in front of him, his figure flashed and he got directly into the stone chamber.
After a while, the little guy ran out again with something in his mouth.
"What's this?"
Chu Ning looked at the thing the little guy was holding a little strangely.
After reaching out to take it, I unexpectedly found that it was a piece of armor. I didn't know what kind of material it was made of. It was very soft.
However, there wasn't much aura fluctuations on it, so Chu Ning couldn't identify its grade using the method of identifying the magic weapon.
With his eyes flashing slightly, Chu Ning placed the armor on the ground, and then casually fired a red flame spell to hit the armor.
This armor does not have any spiritual fluctuations, but at the same time, it is not damaged at all.
"Huh!"
Chu Ning thought for a while and simply took out his Fire Phoenix Feather Spear.
After gathering his magic power, he stabbed hard.
Almost like before, the armor vest didn't react at all.
But there was also no damage at all.
"nice one!"
Chu Ning sighed in admiration, then reached out and took it in his hand. He originally wanted to put the armor into his storage bag.
But after thinking about it, Chu Ning simply put it into her robe.
After asking Ling Xiaobai for a while, he learned that there was nothing else in the stone room.
Chu Ning continued to walk up.
After crossing the last staircase on the sixth floor, you will directly enter the seventh floor.
"Bo!"
Suddenly, an invisible wall pushed Chu Ning back one step.
"Is there a restriction? Xiaobai, didn't you say that it would be easier to get out if there is no restriction if you go up?"
The expression on the little guy's face was also a little dazed at this moment.
"I didn't sense the restriction just now?"
When Chu Ning heard this, his eyes suddenly flickered slightly.
"You just sensed that it would be the same if you walked up?"
Ling Xiaobai nodded.
"Yes, there is no restriction on going further up."
"No!" Chu Ning immediately shook his head.
"If you can't sense the restrictions on this level, it is very likely that this is a special restriction that is beyond the range of your magical power.
Since you can't sense the restrictions on this level, let alone the ones above.
We can't leave from this direction."
"Ying!"
Ling Xiaobai looked a little unconvinced when he heard this.
Obviously, in his mind, there is no restriction that his magical power can't handle.
"I'll try."
As he said this, Ling Xiaobai had already jumped out of Chu Ning's sleeves and directly crashed into the restriction.
"Pop!"
With the fluctuation of this invisible restriction again, Ling Xiaobai was directly bounced away.
The magical power that had been invincible in the past was actually ineffective in front of this restriction.
"No wonder the two caves we just saw were safe and sound. It is very likely that they were protected by restrictions before.
It's just that the time is too long or for some other reason, the restrictions on the lower level have lost their effectiveness?"
Just when Chu Ning was thinking this, he sensed a fluctuation in the restrictions in front of him.
He could not help but quickly take two steps back.
At the same time, a yellow shadow suddenly rushed out from the restriction and pounced towards Chu Ning.
