Chapter 583: Chapter 280 Time Secret Realm (Subscription Required)
Zong Lingwei brought Chu Xisheng to the Sky Wave Residence, handed him the key, and then took his leave.
Zhoou Liangchen and others hurriedly moved the luggage inside, then picked up the cleaning tools Chu Xisheng had collected from the Internal Affairs Office, and began to clean the accumulated dust within the Sky Wave Residence.
Chu Yunyun then asked Chu Xisheng, “How much is the rent for the Sky Wave Residence, it’s quite expensive, isn’t it?”
Chu Xisheng’s face remained expressionless, “Fifty-two thousand demon silver per month.”
Chu Yunyun couldn’t help but be stunned.
Although she had lived in the Sky Wave Residence before, she had never inquired about the rent.
Such trivial matters were always handled by her Daoists.
Chu Yunyun couldn’t help but smile bitterly, “At this time last year, we two worked hard for a month and could only earn a little over a hundred taels.”
The first three months after arriving in Xiushui County were the hardest and most struggling period of her life.
It was also during this time that Chu Yunyun understood the difficulties faced by lower-level martial cultivators and ordinary people.
“Although this courtyard is expensive, it does have a lot of advantages.”
Chu Xisheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
Renting this place at a high cost was actually to satisfy Chu Yunyun’s sentimentality.
Unexpectedly, there were additional benefits?
Chu Yunyun didn’t speak; she led Chu Xisheng to a nearby cultivation room.
She bent down, touched the Spirit Gathering Array in the room, and then, with a complex expression, said, “As I thought, it remains unchanged since I left. When I lived here, I spent a large sum of money to refurbish the four Spirit Gathering Arrays in this room.”
“I didn’t inquire about the specifics at that time, but according to my Daoists, beneath each of these four Spirit Gathering Arrays, four ‘Ancient Spirit Hearts’ are buried, along with various precious Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. The cultivation effect here is equivalent to three times that of ordinary Spirit Gathering Arrays.”
Chu Xisheng couldn’t help but gasp.
‘Ancient Spirit Hearts’ come from the Giant God’s Descendants of the Ancient Era, formed by the petrified hearts of third-grade or higher Giant God’s Descendants over hundreds of thousands of years.
Such items were rare even in the Northern land and could fetch a sky-high price of one to two million taels in the South, extremely expensive.
Dominating Martial King Qin Muge had left without hesitation, abandoning these items.
“Everything in this Sky Wave Residence, from furniture to layout, is exactly the same as when I left, without any change.”
Chu Yunyun stood up again, walking toward the half-buried underground storage room to the north.
The door to the storage room was tightly shut, with layers of intricate arrays on the outside.
Chu Xisheng was about to take out the key when he saw Chu Yunyun place one hand on the storage room door.
The sealing array dissipated instantly, and the heavy wrought iron door gradually opened with a creaking sound.
Chu Xisheng’s spirit was stirred.
He wondered if there might be a treasure inside this storage room.
Dominating Martial King Qin Muge, being incredibly wealthy, could make him rich with just a little bit of what she discarded—
To others, what she abandoned was something they could only dream of.
But upon entering the storage room, Chu Xisheng was slightly disappointed.
The storage room was filled with various weapons: knives, guns, swords, halberds, spears, clubs, staff, maces, axe, hooks, forks, whips, maces, hammers, claws, all eighteen types of weapons were there, and each had more than five of each type.
However, there wasn’t a single Spirit Stone or a bit of gold and silver.
Seeing this, Chu Yunyun laughed, “Don’t underestimate these; they may look unremarkable, but they are all sixth-grade low-grade magic artifacts. They are all made from Star Sinking Divine Iron from the deep sea, extremely sturdy, and can withstand the attacks of fourth-grade weapons without getting damaged in the slightest.”
“I used to dabble in various martial arts and broke many weapons, so I specifically had these made, costing over a million taels of demon silver.”
Upon hearing this, Chu Xisheng’s eyes lit up with joy.
He reached out to grab a long spear from a nearby weapon rack, feeling its icy cold touch.
After concentrating his senses for a moment, he raised his eyebrows, “It really is a sixth-grade low-grade magic artifact.”
It was because of the properties of the Star Sinking Divine Iron that this spear appeared dark and unremarkable, with dim spiritual mechanisms.
However, the ability of the magic artifact itself was otherwise ordinary.
It was, after all, equipment for Qin Muge’s practice, valued for its durability rather than its destructiveness.
Chu Xisheng thought that if he were to sell these items, he could fetch over a million taels of demon silver.
He could also send them back to the Iron Banner Gang to bolster their strength.
“Over there are my cultivation elixirs,” Chu Yunyun pointed to a nearby medicinal rack, “When I left the Formless Divine Sect in a hurry, I returned directly to Tie Shan County from a secret realm in the north to inherit the Family Head and General Northern Peace positions without returning to the Sky Wave Residence. Here, stored are various elixirs needed for half a year of cultivation by me and my four Daoists, worth about fifty thousand taels. The spiritual energy here is abundant, and the elixirs’ efficacy will last for several more years.”
“Especially inside, there are some spirit pills for swiftly cultivating a domineering body. At that time, I had developed some interest in cross training domineering bodies, but in the two years I spent in the Northern land after returning to Tie Shan County, I was almost constantly fighting and had little time to invest in martial arts cultivation, so I never managed to cultivate a domineering body.”
Chu Yunyun then picked up a Black Iron Wheel from the weapon rack and casually tossed it to Chu Xisheng, “This thing is still here; you can put it to use.”
Chu Xisheng took the Black Iron Wheel and examined it carefully.
It too was a magic artifact made from Star Sinking Divine Iron, shaped like a metal wheel the size of a barrel, evenly divided into nine sections.
Judging from the forbidden array inside the artifact, this Black Iron Wheel seemed to be between fourth and fifth grade.
However, after studying it for a while, Chu Xisheng still couldn’t figure out its purpose.
Not understanding, he asked while raising the wheel in his hand, “What is this?”
