"Let's keep going!"

Obtaining the Divine Light Pearl heightened Qin Chen's anticipation for the treasures hidden within the ancient cave.

Everyone followed Qin Chen onward.

They entered a stone room.

Qin Chen pushed open the stone gate of the room.

Suddenly, dazzling bursts of treasure light filled their vision.

Then, everyone entered the stone room.

Instantly, everyone was stunned.

Even Qin Chen wasn't an exception.

This is simply a treasure room!

There were primordial artifacts, strange stones, and some ancient medicines with highly refined elixirs.

In short, there was a wide array of treasures, incredibly abundant.

The entire stone room was illuminated by the brilliance of these supreme treasures, extremely dazzling.

Even Qin Chen couldn't help but gasp in amazement upon seeing this scene.

Although these treasures weren't of much use to Qin Chen,

it couldn't be denied that their value was exceptionally precious.

While they couldn't match the Divine Light Pearl, they were items that were nearly impossible to find outside.

"Guoguo—"

After a brief silence,

Little Strange suddenly dashed out, grabbing those ancient medicine spirit fruits and eating them with delight.

"We're rich..."

"I'm seeing stars!"

Gu Xiaofeng and the others were bright-eyed too.

"Take what you need," Qin Chen said immediately.

Everyone quickly started picking out what they needed.

Qin Chen took nothing except all the strange stones.

"BiDao Stone, Cang Lei Essence Iron, Heavenly Thunder Rock..."

These strange stones were top-notch artifact refining materials.

To Qin Chen, these strange stones were far more important than Heavenly Origin Artifacts, ancient medicine, or spirit fruits.

Because Little Fairy could help refine array maps with these stones.

"You really know how to give me work."

Little Fairy pouted seeing Qin Chen take all the strange stones.

"Labor is the most honorable," Qin Chen said with a smile.

Most of these strange stones were five-star level, and quite a few were six-star level, many being extremely rare varieties.

Presumably, Telekinesis Ancestor hadn't placed other less precious items here.

Take Cang Lei Essence Iron, for instance.

Although it was merely a five-star stone, in terms of value, it was no less than a six-star stone.

After everyone 'ransacked' this treasure room, they continued deeper inside.

Soon, a stone pond appeared in front of Qin Chen.

The stone pond emanated a dense Heaven and Earth Essence aura!

It had already formed a Primordial Qi Mist!

Hence, from afar, the stone pond looked as though it were amidst a fairyland.

Also, this was certainly the most intense Primordial Qi Mist Qin Chen had ever seen!

The rich Primordial Qi Mist, even with Qin Chen's Elemental Power sealed, made him feel utterly refreshed with just a breath.

Qin Chen used the Little Void Breaking Technique to take a closer look.

Revealing the complete view of the stone pool.

Inside the stone pool were crystal stones.

They appeared quite similar to Elemental Crystals.

But upon closer inspection, they differed from Elemental Crystals.

Compared to Elemental Crystals, these crystal stones looked more ancient and varied in size.

Qin Chen picked up one casually.

The astonishing Heaven and Earth Essence within made Qin Chen immediately refine it.

"What is this—"

At this moment, Gu Xiaofeng's eyes locked onto the object in Qin Chen's hand.

"You recognize it?" Qin Chen asked looking at Gu Xiaofeng.

"When I was young and mischievous, I once sneaked a crystal stone like yours from my father's desk drawer."

"But the size was different from the one in your hand."

"Back then, I heard my father say it was some kind of relic, called Ancient Elemental Crystal," Gu Xiaofeng replied.

"Ancient Elemental Crystal?"

Qin Chen and the others raised an eyebrow.

The crystal stones indeed resemble Elemental Crystals.

But what exactly was Ancient Elemental Crystal?

"He's right."

"This is indeed Ancient Elemental Crystal," Little Fairy spoke.

"How does Ancient Elemental Crystal differ from Elemental Crystal?" Qin Chen immediately inquired.

"The difference is substantial."

"Ancient Elemental Crystals are Elemental Crystals from ancient times, those from that era are the most original, thus varying in size."

"Nowadays, Elemental Crystals are uniform in size, they're humanly processed, far less pure than Ancient Elemental Crystals."

"Thus, Ancient Elemental Crystals are also known as Original Elemental Crystals," Little Fairy explained.

"I see?"

Qin Chen's heart stirred.

"To make a comparison."

"If you take a modern Elemental Crystal and compare it with an Ancient Elemental Crystal of the same size."

"One Ancient Elemental Crystal is equivalent to at least a hundred modern Elemental Crystals."

"You can weigh the vast difference there."

"A hundred?"

Qin Chen was astonished.

The disparity was immense!

"So these Ancient Elemental Crystals are indeed cultivation treasures."

Remarked Qin Chen, now eyeing the Ancient Elemental Crystals with intense heat.

No wonder the place had such dense Primordial Qi Mist.

Now Qin Chen had the Divine Light Pearl for Body Refinement!

If also equipped with these Ancient Elemental Crystals,

it would be perfect.

"These Ancient Elemental Crystals are cultivation treasures, should we split them among the three of us?"

Qin Chen looked at Gu Xiaofeng and Xia Meng'er.

"We already took plenty from the treasure room, you only took the strange stones."

"If you need these Ancient Elemental Crystals, take them all," Gu Xiaofeng said.

Qin Chen glanced at Gu Xiaofeng and Xia Meng'er, then nodded with a wry smile.

Following that, Qin Chen stored all the Ancient Elemental Crystals from the stone pond into the God Devouring Crystal.

Instantly, the Heaven and Earth Essence within the God Devouring Crystal rose steeply.

"Once I've vanquished those Three Sects, it'll be time to return to the Heavenly Blade Saint Sect for intensive cultivation,"

thought Qin Chen to himself.

With these Ancient Elemental Crystals, along with the Time Crystal, and that Primordial Vein, returning to Demon Peak with endless Sword Rhythm, Qin Chen's cultivation resources were quite exceptional.

"Hmm?"

After Qin Chen had taken all the Ancient Elemental Crystals from the stone pool.

He saw an unusual object at the bottom of the stone pool.

"A heart?!"

Upon seeing this oddity, Zhao Tengqi gasped.

Qin Chen's eyes narrowed.

Earlier, it wasn't clear at a glance.

But upon closer observation, it did appear to be a heart.

Moreover, it seemed to be a... a living heart!

Still beating 'thump thump'!

The scene looked bizarre.

"Big Brother!"

As Qin Chen stood in awe,

Little Strange suddenly called out solemnly.

Qin Chen was puzzled seeing Little Strange so serious for the first time.

"What's wrong?"

Little Strange's gaze was fixed on the heart at the stone pool's bottom, "That heart is the Beast King's Heart!"
