Yi Yun was already mentally prepared to be the Shaomang clan's enemy . He knew it was inevitable when Shaomang Xuan showed killing intent toward him .
In the martial world, it was only right for powerful factions to eliminate weaker factions . However, if the weaker faction were to put up a resistance, they would completely cross the powerful faction and only invite fatal trouble on themselves .
Yi Yun thought nothing of the matter . He did not mind offending the Shaomang clan .
Meanwhile, the members of the Shaomang clan had all escaped . At the final moment, no one dared attack Shan Ling . They were still uncertain of her relationship with Yi Yun and were afraid that he might seek revenge for her .
Yi Yun looked at Shan Ling . As Shaomang Xuan's maidservant, she was actually destined to end up with a tragic fate .
"I can bring you out of here . As for your future, decide that for yourself . Of course, you can try to seek revenge against me . In that case, I can send you to accompany Shaomang Xuan . "
Upon hearing Yi Yun, Shan Ling let out a tragic laugh . Shaomang Xuan's actions had chilled her heart . Furthermore, his death was a result of his killing intent . She naturally did not hate Yi Yun, but regardless, Shaomang Xuan was once her mental crutch . With him dead, Shan Ling felt lost .
"There will be people coming here soon . We have to leave immediately . "
Perhaps there were more treasures in the Li Water, but Yi Yun had no means to explore it . In the God Confusion Valley, there was no lack of opportunities . What truly mattered was living on to obtain and hold on to those opportunities .
As Yi Yun spoke, the God Advent Tower had already appeared in front of him . If Shan Ling continued her daze, he would decisively abandon her .
However, Shan Ling chose to silently enter the God Advent Tower .
Yi Yun's body phased away as he vanished instantly .
In one breath, he flew nearly five hundred kilometers away . In the God Confusion Valley where one's perception was screened, it was impossible to track anyone beyond a five hundred kilometer radius .
Yi Yun found an uninhabited valley . He set up a concealment array at its entrance and immediately entered it to begin his meditation .
He had expended a great deal during his battle with Shaomang Xuan . However, he had gained quite a lot from it .
At that moment, Yi Yun held a spatial artifact in the form of a bracelet . It was the interspatial artifact which Shaomang Xuan had carried .
Yi Yun would naturally not miss out on taking Shaomang Xuan's collection after killing him .
"I wonder what's inside…"
With a thought, Yi Yun wiped out the lifeblood mark on the interspatial bracelet . He then used the Purple Crystal to probe it to ensure that there was no tracing mark on it . Yi Yun then took out one item after another .
There were a total of twenty exquisite white-jade chests . He opened the first few and found that they were filled with refined ores . Combined they amounted to more than five thousand kilograms . Back on the Taixia ore-mining spirit cruiser, Songyue had only given him her prized collection—five kilograms of refined ores . All the wealth he had taken from Cang Gu did not even equal 400 kilograms . Compared to Shaomang Xuan, their collections paled in comparison .
There was a huge chest that contained bottles of pills . They held restorative medicine used by Fey, lifeblood pills, etc . Yi Yun had a Dragon Emperor bloodline while the Shaomang's totem was a Suanni—one of the nine sons of the dragon . These pills were naturally something he could use .
"Oh? This is…"
Yi Yun saw a tiny wooden chest that resembled a woman's makeup box in the medicinal chest . It looked unadorned and was made of an unknown material .
"It's Stellar Moon Nanmu . This material is only available in the Chaos Heavens . It can ensure that divine medicine retains its medicinal effects even after hundreds of millions of years . Such material is extremely precious . Just this box alone is worth thousands of kilograms of refined ores . "
Bai Yueyin's voice sounded in Yi Yun's soul sea .
"Oh?" Yi Yun's expression changed as he looked forward to the items within .
When he opened the box, it emitted sparkles that resembled that of gems .
It was not divine medicine, but… Chaos Crystals!
"They are extremely pure superior-grade Chaos Crystals . The quality of these Chaos Crystals are much better than the one used at the entrance of the God Confusion Valley," added Bai Yueyin .
Over the past few days, Yi Yun also learned of the method to create Chaos Crystals .
Such superior-grade Chaos Crystals were the result of processing Chaos refined ores with special techniques . They were placed in arrays to absorb the worldly essence and after tens of thousands of years of incubation and tempering, they would be refined by Crystal Refinement Grandmasters .
In the end, only one Chaos Crystal would be produced by using 3500 kilograms of refined ores .
Together with the losses made from refinement, as well as the Crystal Refinement Grandmaster fees and the incubation time, a Chaos Crystal was worth about 5000 kilograms of refined ores .
"From the looks of it, these refined ores are Shaomang Xuan's spare cash . The Chaos Crystals in this box make up the bulk of Shaomang Xuan's wealth . "
Bai Yueyin said, "Chaos Crystals should be very precious to Shaomang Xuan as well . With his stature, he would mainly cultivate with refined ores . He would have to conserve his Chaos Crystals or he could not afford the expenditure . "
Yi Yun nodded . "Oh? There are still things in this box…"
Yi Yun saw a blood-colored jade slip at the bottom of the Stellar Moon Nanmu box . He injected his perception into it and saw a Suanni with its claws and fangs bared .
Upon seeing the Suanni, Yi Yun felt his lifeblood boil over . It was as though it was about to burst out because of the image on it .
This was a Contemplation Picture!?
Yi Yun instantly realized that the blood-colored jade slip could very well be the Shaomang family clan's cultivation technique that was passed down over the generations . Shaomang Xuan carried it along with him to study it, so it naturally meant it was nothing trivial .
"This cultivation technique is not bad . It's probably only a portion of the whole heritage, but the Shaomang family clan will definitely want it back at all costs," said Bai Yueyin .
Such family clan cultivation techniques could be destroyed since the family clan's Grand Elder could draw them again . However, if they were to land in the hands of others, that would be a vendetta that could not be erased .
Yi Yun said, "They would not spare me even without the Contemplation Picture . It doesn't matter having another reason to pursue me . "
Regardless, he had made a killing from killing Shaomang Xuan .
Yi Yun put away all the treasures and only left one Chaos Crystal out of the box . It floated in front of him as he began powering his Dragon Emperor Technique . Large amounts of essence Qi surged out of the Chaos Crystal and infused Yi Yun's lifeblood, replenishing his energy stores .
The feeling of cultivating with a Chaos Crystal was like soaking himself in a pool of ambrosia . All his pores opened up as he freely absorbed the ambrosia and enjoyed the pinnacle pleasures of life .
Yi Yun only felt that, as the Chaos Crystal energies surged into him, his lifeblood was experiencing a catharsis . The foul Qi in his muscles were expelled as he felt extreme pleasure .
Two hours later, the Chaos Crystal turned a lot dimmer . As for Yi Yun, he was bursting with energy as his eyes sparkled .
This only replenished his physical strength, but following that, the tiny black wheel which floated in his dantian began to stir up an energy vortex .
The moment the 10000 Demon Wheel of Existence appeared, the energies within the Chaos Crystal were expended even faster . In just an hour, the Chaos Crystal lost all its luster and, with a light crack, it was reduced to gray dust .
That was all…
Yi Yun looked at the gray ashes in his hand and felt wistful . He had only barely recovered to his pinnacle state .
The energies contained within the Chaos Crystal were much more than thousands of kilograms of refined ores .
However, the quality of the energy was incomparable .
Yi Yun discovered that his strength had improved a little from the restorative process!
A warrior's dantian and body were like reservoirs . Yuan Qi and lifeblood powers were the sources of water . If the water was drained, using Heaven Earth Yuan Qi or refined ores to replenish it would be akin to filling up the reservoir with water . However, Yi Yun felt that replenishing with Chaos Crystals seemed to deepen the reservoir by a little .
Although it was only a little, that was still rare . After all, Yi Yun was already at the Divine Lord realm with an especially robust foundation . Every improvement was extremely difficult!
If he were to solely use Chaos Crystals to cultivate in the future, the speed of his improvements would increase to a brand new level . Of course, the expenditure required would be an astronomical number that even a huge family clan could not afford .
"There are still fifteen Chaos Crystals . I'll cultivate a few more times before deciding on the future . "
Since it was wealth he robbed, Yi Yun did not feel the pinch using it .
