The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2188: Chapter 2188: Great Harvest

The restriction on the storage magical treasure is not complicated. Breaking it is not a difficult task for Jing Yan. In less than a breath’s time, the restriction on this magical treasure is completely dispelled.

In the next moment, Jing Yan’s divine thought smoothly enters the internal space of the storage magical treasure.

When he sees the items inside the storage magical treasure, his eyebrows involuntarily twitch.

“Netherworld Crystal Stone?”

“There are indeed Netherworld Crystal Stones!” Jing Yan’s divine thought looks at the Netherworld Crystal Stones stored in the magical treasure, exclaiming softly.

After discovering this storage magical treasure, Jing Yan also entertained the thought of whether there were Netherworld Crystal Stones inside. The owner of this storage magical treasure was likely this skeleton, and this skeleton, in life, should have been a cultivator who entered the Yellow Spring Cave to search for Netherworld Crystal Stones. If this person did not die unexpectedly soon after entering the Yellow Spring Cave, then it is likely that he found some Netherworld Crystal Stones there.

Of course, before seeing the Netherworld Crystal Stone, Jing Yan just entertained this thought without much hope. After all, if this cultivator found some Netherworld Crystal Stones in life, why wouldn’t his killer have taken his storage magical treasure? So Jing Yan dared not hope too much.

But when he opened the restriction and saw the items inside, there were indeed quite a few Netherworld Crystal Stones.

There are low-grade, intermediate, and high-grade Netherworld Crystal Stones. The high-grade Netherworld Crystal Stones are only three in number, the intermediate ones about a dozen, and there are more low-grade. Besides Netherworld Crystal Stones, there are also some magic treasures, ores, and other materials that are not of high value. Roughly estimated, they are worth tens of billions to a hundred billion Black Crystal Stones.

“Looks like I’m quite lucky.”

“Just entering the Yellow Spring Cave and finding so many Netherworld Crystal Stones.” Jing Yan was somewhat pleased.

He looked at the skeleton and said, “You are reduced to just a skeleton, I don’t know your identity, and your storage magical treasure holds no information about you. So, I can only bury you here.”

Jing Yan sweeps up a layer of yellow sand, completely covering the skeleton.

In any case, Jing Yan obtained this storage ring and reaped great rewards.

He entered the Yellow Spring Cave and in less than a cup of tea’s time obtained so many Netherworld Crystal Stones, making others envious.

After leaving the skeleton’s location, Jing Yan continued to use his divine thought to explore the surroundings, searching for traces of Netherworld Crystal Stones.

However, it is evident that Netherworld Crystal Stones are not so easy to find. In this vast desert with yellow sand everywhere, even the scope of exploration by divine thought is not large. Moreover, because this yellow sand is extremely special, it has an astonishing effect of obstructing the penetration of divine thought. Even with Jing Yan’s use of divine soul attack methods, he can only probe to a depth of several thousand meters underground.

Other cultivators find it even more difficult to investigate the underground environment.

Simply put, even if there is a Netherworld Crystal Stone vein in a certain location underground, it is very difficult for cultivators on the surface to discover it.

A few months passed in the blink of an eye.

During these months, Jing Yan only gained some Netherworld Crystal Stones from a storage magical treasure after discovering a skeleton at the beginning, which was a decent harvest. But thereafter, the gains were small, finding only some low-grade Netherworld Crystal Stones and a pitiable two intermediate-grade ones in the wilderness.

“If only I could discover a Netherworld Crystal Stone vein.” Jing Yan smiled bitterly and shook his head.

…

In a certain place in the Yellow Spring Cave.

Lu Chun of the Mystic Moon Trading House had a sullen expression, with a violent gleam flashing in his eyes.

He had been in the Yellow Spring Cave for a few months and only acquired some low-grade Netherworld Crystal Stones, not even finding a single intermediate-grade one. A breath was stuck in his chest.

Divine power flowed over the surface of his body, keeping the overwhelming yellow sand at bay.

“Damn sandstorm!” Lu Chun cursed.

If not for the overwhelming sandstorm, his divine thought could explore on a large scale and he would naturally be able to find more Netherworld Crystal Stones. Even if no veins were found, more scattered Netherworld Crystal Stones could be searched in the wilderness. But the overwhelming yellow sand severely limited the range of his divine thought. Moreover, once divine thought is released, it continues to be eroded by the special sand, resulting in a rapid consumption of divine soul power.

“At this rate, I won’t find many Netherworld Crystal Stones before the Yellow Spring Cave closes!”

“My Mystic Moon Trading House has only me entering the high-level Yellow Spring Cave this time.”

“Damn it!”

“It’s all the fault of that damn Jing Yan, that little bastard!” Lu Chun stomped angrily.

“Heh, isn’t this Fellow Daoist Lu Chun?”

A voice came from ahead.

Lu Chun condensed his divine thought and spread it out.

“What a coincidence, to meet Fellow Daoist Ke Zun here.” Lu Chun sneered coldly.

Ke Zun is an Immortal Rhythm Cultivator from the Shadow Tower, one of the Four Great Forces, and his strength is extremely formidable. He is one of the two cultivators from Shadow Tower who entered the Yellow Spring Cave this time.

“How have your gains been, Fellow Daoist Lu Chun?” Ke Zun asked with a smile.

“Not bad. And you, Fellow Daoist Ke Zun? How many Netherworld Crystal Stones have you found?” Lu Chun said.

He didn’t reveal that he had only found some low-grade Netherworld Crystal Stones, as that would be too embarrassing. Moreover, the Shadow Tower and his Mystic Moon Trading House do not have a good relationship. Saying that he found only some low-grade Netherworld Crystal Stones would clearly be laughed at by Ke Zun.

“Sigh, I haven’t found many Netherworld Crystal Stones, bad luck! After a few months, I only found one high-grade one. I also didn’t find many low-grade ones.” Ke Zun shook his head, showing a regretful expression.

But in his tone, there was a distinct sense of joy.

To find a high-grade Netherworld Crystal Stone within a few months is already considered good. After all, the Yellow Spring Cave opens once every now and then, and the duration it stays open is at least several decades, sometimes even lasting a hundred years.

Upon hearing Ke Zun’s words, Lu Chun’s expression changed, and the anger he had barely suppressed flared up again.

“Damn it! Damn it, Ke Zun, why can he find a high-grade Netherworld Crystal Stone while I’ve only found a miserable few low-grade ones!” Lu Chun roared internally.

He couldn’t suppress his fury!

“Boom!” He swung his arm vigorously, and vast divine power surged out. With a tremendous noise, the yellow sand in the space in front of him was swept away. In a short time, the space around him cleared up significantly.

Not only that, but when his divine power fell upon the yellow sand ground, a vast area of sand covering the surface was swept away. The rocks beneath the yellow sand were torn open by the terrifying force, forming a huge rift hundreds of meters deep.

This Lu Chun from Mystic Moon Trading House possessed exceptionally formidable strength, surpassing most Shen Zhou Heavenly Monarchs.

“Why is Fellow Daoist Lu Chun in such a fury?” Ke Zun was slightly taken aback and chuckled softly.

Then, Ke Zun’s pupils shrank as his gaze fixed intently.
