After making a few rounds, Luo Pin had not found anything yet . Instead, it was Wu Yu who understood why Qin Fuyao wanted to hog this underground palace .
In one of the secret chambers in the depths of the underground palace, he had found an immortal treasure . It was very ancient, probably about as old as the Grand Emperor Sword . Because too much time had passed, many of its spirit designs had lost much of their potency .
In terms of power, it must still be roughly equivalent to a supreme immortal treasure .
It was a blade that Wu Yu was not too skilled in using . He reckoned that he might be able to make quite a sum from selling it .
"If there's one, there's more . This means that there might be other treasures within this underground palace . Although I have no idea how they got here, this is the mysterious Yan Huang Ancient Well after all . Nothing is a surprise . "
For example, Wu Yu encountered a demonic corpse at one point . The demonic corpse was like the Yan Huang Ancient Souls, but filled with a dark purple light . It was very powerful, except it had no intention of guiding Wu Yu at all - it just charged at him mercilessly . Finally, Wu Yu and Luo Pin combined powers to take it down . Otherwise, Wu Yu would’ve been in trouble .
"Since there are treasures in this underground palace, I should search carefully . "
Therefore, Wu Yu and Luo Pin searched separately for the next few days and found a few treasures . Besides two immortal treasures, he found three types of precious treasures . One of them was a metal with four spiritual marks, while the two were crystals with four and five spiritual marks respectively . These were all rare and ancient resources that were probably worth quite a lot .
Besides, they had still not finished scouring the underground palace .
They met Qin Fuyao two more times, and she rushed past them with a hostile expression . Wu Yu called after her a few times, but she ignored him with a cold face .
"Women are really strange things . They change moods faster than flipping a book page . Especially beautiful women . " Before, it had been Nangong Wei, and now Qin Fuyao . There would always be a time when they would become impossible to understand .
After three days, it seemed like this colossal underground palace had been mostly searched . Staring at the dim and crumbling surroundings, rust-covered and damp, Luo Pin was a little frustrated . She had yet to come up with anything .
"No worries . Let's search somewhere else . "
The two returned to their original path .
Along the way, Wu Yu came across a pitch black lake . The lake water was stagnant and filthy . He had passed it a few times before without a second glance, but a brainwave suddenly hit him . He said, "This underground lake seems pretty deep . How about going in for a look?"
In the entire underground palace, this was perhaps the only place that they had overlooked .
Luo Pin nodded slightly, but she had no intention of going diving . With a careless curl of her hand, the lake water rose up, rushing towards her . With an easy gesture, it began to compact, forming a black pearl of water in her hand .
She tossed the pearl back into the lake . It bounced a few times and was stuck in the mud .
Wu Yu watched, mouth agape . As expected of a mystical dragon of the sea . This level of water manipulation was impressive indeed .
Peering down into the basin, Wu Yu's breath caught . They had indeed found a hole thanks to his observant senses . There was a circular iron platform in the middle, almost like a huge metal cover . The two exchanged a look, then hurried down to it . Wu Yu grasped the edge of the platform, then gave it a tremendous shove . He lifted it up and peered underneath . There was indeed a path below .
"Let’s go in . "
The two entered the passage, and Wu Yu gently let the cover down . It was quickly shut, and Luo Pin also gestured to cause the black water pearl to explode and gush forth, filling the lake anew . The rank, black lake soon resumed its original state .
This was to prevent Qin Fuyao from knowing what they had found .
The passage was pitch-black, and Wu Yu's eyes shot forth golden pillars of fire that lit the path . It was fairly long, but both moved forward at a cautious pace in case there were other threats .
After about 20 breaths of time of walking, it seemed like there was something .
A small chamber within .
Wu Yu and Luo Pin appeared in the small chamber, and they soon took in all there was .
Firstly, there was a broken corpse below their feet . It looked to have had been there for a very long time, marked with the passage of time and history .
That the corpse could endure until today indicated that the person had been a martial cultivator of great quality .
Perhaps this person had once been someone famous .
From the shape of the bones, this person should have been a woman .
But because too much time had passed, she had not been able to leave anything behind besides her bones . Save one more thing .
This was undoubtedly the most attention-catching object within the small chamber .
It was a black cloth wrapped around the skeleton's hand .
Luo Pin had also seen the black cloth . More specifically, it seemed to be a handkerchief tied to the arm .
And it was not black, but simply sullied by the mud after all this time .
It was an immortal treasure .
This sort of immortal treasure was less commonly seen for Wu Yu . This type of immortal treasure was even more complicated . Firstly, in terms of material, it had to be made of a thread-like cloth precious treasure, and then the spirit designs were formed .
Normally, for immortal treasures, fashioning spirit designs was easiest on normal weapons . For those like the Yan Huang Immortal Armor, it was more difficult, and those such as this cloth were the trickiest to accomplish .
Before coming across this immortal treasure, Luo Pin seemed to show no interest, but she narrowed her eyes this time . She did not move, but said in a startled tone, "This seems to be a dao treasure . "
Wu Yu had not thought much of it, but was equally startled when he heard the words “dao treasure . ” "Dao treasure? This handkerchief?"
That was completely out of his expectations .
Perhaps because too much time had passed, the handkerchief's powers had been washed clean, and it was now very ordinary . But as long as the quality was unchanged, and most of the spirit designs were intact, then it could return to its original state after it was blood bonded .
“Mm . It is a dao treasure that you found . I will not contest you for it . Take it quickly," Luo Pin said with a quiet look . She seemed to have no desire for it at all .
Of course, she actually had many treasures, and she did not fancy those of this level .
Wu Yu was still in disbelief . He walked up and firstly bowed slightly to the corpse . He said, "Senior has already passed on . Junior has come across this possession and will take it so that it may again see the light of day . "
His movements were gentle, and he took the handkerchief from the corpse . He used a rinsing spell to revert the treasure to its original shape . It was actually a blue handkerchief, the same color as the ocean . Spreading it open, he saw a breathtaking scene of the sea painted on it . Although it just looked like an ordinary handkerchief for now, Wu Yu knew that once he poured his Jindan essence in, this handkerchief would definitely come to life .
"Is this really a dao treasure?" Wu Yu found this unthinkable .
"Show it to me . " Luo Pin stretched out her hand, and Wu Yu draped it over it . She inspected it for a while and then said, "Indeed . It is known as the Damask of the Sea's Heart . It has been around for too long, but the spirit designs are still in very good condition . Its power is not bad, and can be used for both attack and defense . However, it doesn't seem to be very compatible with your affinities . "
Since she had confirmed that it was a dao treasure, then it had to be one!
But Wu Yu still felt that this was hard to take in . A dao treasure was something that only those at the level of the Seven Immortals of Shushan could master . Or perhaps those with legacies such as Murong Xu . Of course, Murong Xu could not bring forth much real ability .
This Damask of the Sea's Heart would probably look even more fetching draped around the neck of a woman .
Wu Yu's strengths lay in the keen edge of metal and the fierce intensity of fire . Yet the Damask of the Sea's Heart was a gentle object, encompassing as the ocean and gentle as water . Just from its appearance alone, it seemed like a much better fit for Luo Pin .
If Wu Yu used it himself, he would be hard-pressed to bring forth the true power of the Damask of the Sea's Heart .
Therefore, he hesitated and then said, "Actually, we found this together, and it suits you better . Why not . . . . "
Before he finished speaking, Luo Pin handed the Damask of the Sea's Heart back to him, saying, "No way . This is yours . Besides, I already have one . "
Saying this, Luo Pin frowned . She seemed to feel like she had let something slip . After all, Wu Yu did not know her status, and she had actually told him that she had a dao treasure . . . .
However, Wu Yu seemed not to be paying attention to her words, so she relaxed a little .
Wu Yu accepted the Damask of the Sea's Heart . Holding it in his hand, he did not understand why this handkerchief was a dao treasure . . . .
"Don't underestimate it . Although it does not suit you, you will realize its true brilliance if you blood bond with it . Its power is definitely comparable to the Mixed Thunder Daosword . However, I suggest that you hold off blood bonding with it for now . The sentience of a dao treasure is haughty and proud, and it does not suit your affinities . It will not bend to you at all, and might even hurt you, unless you are stronger than you currently are," Luo Pin said seriously .
"Understood . "
Although he had received a great treasure, it was of no use for now .
Such a dao treasure was most suited for a lady .
"Forget it . If I get other dao treasures in the future, I could sell it, and its worth is undetermined . Or I could exchange it for one that suits me more . "
After all, this was a dao treasure!
The Yan Huang Ancient Well was truly a wondrous place - even dao treasures could randomly be found here!
After all, Luo Pin also had these things, and Wu Yu was not at the same level as she was . He could not easily relinquish such boons and carelessly give them away to her .
He prepared to stow away the Damask of the Sea's Heart, intending to continue inspecting it after they left .
Just at this moment, there was something above their heads . Wu Yu started . He knew that someone had entered - perhaps upon hearing the two .
Her speed was fast .
Wu Yu looked up to see Qin Fuyao . She was staring at the object in Wu Yu's hand . Without any pretense, she said, "Put that down . "
