Inside the stone chamber.
As Ye Chen and Ye Lin walked in, they were instantly stunned by the scene on the walls.
Looking up, they saw that the walls around the stone chamber were embedded with empty stones for illumination.
One must know that, in Qingcheng Mountain, an empty stone was auctioned several years ago.
At that time, that empty stone was bid up to an exorbitant price by the Three Great Families and the wealthy nobles within Qingcheng Mountain.
It's easy to imagine that the value of an empty stone is simply inestimable.
And now, in this stone chamber, as far as the eye can see, there are at least dozens of empty stones, which shows how distinguished the identity of the owner who arranged this stone chamber must have been.
"Ah…"
Looking at the empty stones on the surrounding walls, just as Ye Chen was thinking about how much money he could make by prying them off, he was suddenly interrupted by Ye Lin's scream.
Hearing the sound, Ye Chen quickly walked to Ye Lin's side and asked anxiously, "Lin'er, what's wrong?"
Facing Ye Chen's question, Ye Lin trembled with fear and said, "Brother, there… there seems to be a corpse over there…"
Hmm?
Corpse?
Ye Chen looked up with a puzzled expression towards the distance, and sure enough, in the center of the stone chamber not far away, there was a corpse.
And beneath that corpse, there was a chair, from which it could be seen that this corpse should be the owner of this stone chamber.
However, the corpse had been dead for an unknown period, having long since turned into a bloodless, fleshless skeleton, with even its head fallen to the ground.
But, based on the bones, it could be determined that this skeleton was likely a male before he died.
As for anything else, Ye Chen couldn't discern it.
Previously, both Ye Chen and Ye Lin had been attracted by the empty stones on the walls.
If it weren't for Ye Lin's scream, Ye Chen wouldn't have noticed that there was a skeleton in the stone chamber.
It seems this stone chamber was likely created by that skeleton before he died.
Looking at Ye Lin, who was still trembling with fear, Ye Chen gently comforted her, "Lin'er, that skeleton has been dead for many years, what's there to be afraid of?"
"Could he possibly come back to life and eat you?"
After Ye Chen said that, Ye Lin bravely glanced at the corpse not far away again, and indeed, just as Ye Chen said, that skeleton had been dead for many years.
Perhaps she had been too scared just now and mistakenly thought the skeleton was a corpse.
Looking at the skeleton, whose skull had even fallen off, Ye Lin was no longer afraid and followed Ye Chen as he explored the stone chamber.
After walking a full circle.
Inside the stone chamber, besides the skeleton and the empty stones embedded in the walls, there was nothing else.
Looking at the somewhat empty stone chamber, Ye Chen, not believing it, walked towards where the skeleton was.
Based on Ye Chen's conjecture, since this skeleton could embed so many empty stones in the stone chamber for illumination, he must not have been an unknown person.
As expected.
Just as Ye Chen walked to where the skeleton sat, he clearly saw a Heavy Sword No Edge casually discarded on the ground beneath the skeleton's chair.
It seems this Heavy Sword No Edge should be the weapon the skeleton used when he was alive.
Seeing this, Ye Chen took a few quick steps to the skeleton, bent down, picked up the Heavy Sword No Edge from the ground, blew a puff of air to remove the dust from it, and saw the words "No Edge" revealed on the hilt.
"Heavy Sword No Edge…"
"What a good name…"
Ye Chen swung the Heavy Sword No Edge in his hand and said, somewhat out of breath, "Good heavens, this Heavy Sword No Edge must weigh at least two hundred catties!"
"Thankfully, I broke through to Martial Artist Second Layer earlier in the Eternal Sky Tomb, otherwise, I would have been completely exhausted just now. It seems that in the future, besides cultivating spiritual power, I also need to find a way to enhance my Physical Body strength…"
As he spoke, Ye Chen inadvertently saw a flash of light from a corner of the chair under the illumination of the empty stones.
"Hmm? What… what is this thing?"
Looking at the flash of light from the corner of the chair, Ye Chen stepped forward to the skeleton, reached out, and took it out, breathing rapidly, "This… this is a Storage Ring?"
In Qingcheng Mountain, the value of a Storage Ring could be said to be priceless.
Looking across Qingcheng Mountain, only the Clan Chief of the Three Great Families and the City Lord of Qingcheng Mountain each possessed one.
"I'm rich, I'm rich…"
With this Storage Ring, regardless of whether there was anything inside, even if it was empty, the value of the Storage Ring itself was immeasurable for Ye Chen.
At this moment, Ye Chen looked at the Storage Ring in his hand, feeling incredibly excited.
The next second.
Ye Chen put the Storage Ring on the ring finger of his right hand, then separated a strand of Divine Sense and poured it into the Storage Ring.
"Bang…"
In an instant, with a crisp sound, a strange space appeared before Ye Chen.
This space was not large, only a few dozen square meters.
But inside, there were many things placed.
"This… this is Low-Grade Spirit Stone."
Looking at the stones emitting rich spiritual power, Ye Chen's little heart immediately pounded with excitement.
One must know that, in Tianwu Continent, currency is divided into silver, gold coins, Low-Grade Spirit Stone, Medium-Grade Spirit Stone, High-Grade Spirit Stone, Top-Grade Spirit Stone…
Among them, one hundred taels of silver are equivalent to one gold coin, one thousand gold coins are equivalent to one Low-Grade Spirit Stone, ten thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones are equivalent to one Medium-Grade Spirit Stone…
And before Ye Chen, by his estimation, there were at least a hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
If these Spirit Stones were exchanged for gold coins and silver, wouldn't he be rich?
That being said, Ye Chen wouldn't be foolish enough to exchange Low-Grade Spirit Stones for gold coins and silver.
After all, for Cultivators, Low-Grade Spirit Stones can directly help one absorb and cultivate to improve one's cultivation.
If Ye Chen were to exchange Low-Grade Spirit Stones for gold coins and silver, wouldn't he be out of his mind?
Looking at the mountain of Low-Grade Spirit Stones before him, Ye Chen suppressed his excitement and continued to explore inside.
Not far from the Low-Grade Spirit Stones, several Medium-Grade Spirit Stones were also placed.
Besides these things, Ye Chen also saw many medicinal herbs.
And a pile of demon cores were neatly arranged on the ground.
Walking further in.
When Ye Chen saw a pile of bottles and jars, he couldn't help but tremble, taking a few quick steps, and said in shock, "These… these are all Medicinal Pills…"
"This is too extravagant…"
"This… this is a Second-Grade Medicinal Pill, Peiyuan Pill…"
"There are also Zengyuan Pills, Body Refining Pills, Dahuan Pills…"
Looking at the dazzling array of Medicinal Pills before him, Ye Chen continued to walk deeper into the Storage Ring.
"Holy crap…"
"This… this is too much…"
When Ye Chen saw a small mountain-like pile of gold coins before his eyes, for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
Walking further in.
When Ye Chen reached the end of the Storage Ring, he only saw a black box.
"Hmm? What's going on?"
"Isn't it that the further in you go, the more precious the items are?"
"Why is there only one box here…"
