In the first layer of the Ancient Relics, Xiao Ye, accompanied by Little White, explored their surroundings.
"Heavenly Golden Ginseng, Heavenly Kui Flower, Heavenly Bamboo Heart, King Martial Combat Skills Unrivaled Body Technique, King Martial Combat Skills Great Self-Returning Palm, secret technique Eighteen Waves..."
As Xiao Ye walked through the ruins, he examined the murals around him.
The content of those murals was an eye-opening experience.
They depicted Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, Martial Arts Secret Manuals, and all sorts of weaponry, a dazzling array that left one's head spinning.
Since entering the ancient ruins, this was the first time Xiao Ye had the leisure to look at the murals around him. In the two layers above, he had been constantly on edge, how could he have had the time to look at these murals?
It must be said, these ancient ruins were indeed too mysterious, just like a treasure vault.
Even Xiao Ye, a disciple from the major sect of Taiyi Palace, couldn't help being tempted by the treasures of the first layer.
Even the weapons in the first layer were Royal Artifacts.
If it weren't for the fact that Xiao Ye had already obtained the Xiao Blade, he would definitely be searching everywhere for Royal Artifacts.
After all, at his realm, forging a Royal Artifact was very difficult. Even though he had the Xiao Blade, he wouldn't mind having too many Royal Artifacts.
Of course, with the Emperor's Xiao Blade in hand, the allure of Royal Artifacts had greatly diminished for Xiao Ye. He was just casually looking, and if he did come across them, it wouldn't be too late to collect them.
Right now, the most important thing was to first find the 'Heavenly Bamboo Heart', a treasure that could heal Elder Yang's injuries.
"Hmm, once I've raised my cultivation in the future, I must go to the second and third layers again to find treasures," Xiao Ye thought to himself.
"Hmm?"
As Xiao Ye was walking, his expression suddenly changed, and even Little White, sitting on his shoulder, let out a cautious cry.
A hazy cyan glow appeared in front of Xiao Ye, winding around the area, causing ripples to splash in the void.
"Array!"
Xiao Ye's expression darkened.
He hadn't expected to encounter a formation here. Although it didn't look like a Killing Formation, who knows what dangers might lurk.
To think, he hadn't come across any formations in the second and third layers.
"Since there's a formation, maybe there are treasures around." After pondering for a moment, Xiao Ye, bold and skilled, charged straight into it.
Splash!
As Xiao Ye stepped into the formation, the cyan glow became even brighter, causing innumerable totems to appear in the void. They interwove and affected the very space itself.
Xiao Ye only felt a flash before his eyes, and suddenly, a vast valley appeared before him, very bright, no longer dark like before.
In the valley, there were green plants everywhere, brimming with vitality.
"Woo woo!"
Little White on Xiao Ye's shoulder let out an excited call and then took the initiative to swoop down into the valley.
"Little White!"
Xiao Ye was startled, worried that Little White would encounter danger, and quickly followed suit.
Little White had been with him for a long time, becoming very excited every time it encountered Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. From this, it was evident that there must be treasures in this valley.
Indeed, as Xiao Ye flew into the valley, he felt the spiritual energy pressing in on him and the life force was incredibly rich.
"Truly remarkable, to create such a space within the ancient ruins, and to have a valley within the space – such skill is probably beyond the reach of even ordinary strong individuals of the Emperor Martial Realm," Xiao Ye marveled as he surveyed his surroundings.
He could tell that the very existence of this valley was due to the array guarding it.
As for Little White, it had long dashed off to who knows where.
Seeing that there was no danger in the valley, Xiao Ye paid no further attention and began wandering around it.
Not far away, dozens of streams of spiritual energy shot straight into the sky, exuding a fragrance that refreshed the heart and spleen.
After seeing this, Xiao Ye hurried over and discovered a medicinal garden filled with ginseng that exuded a golden hue; they looked like bars of gold planted upside down in the soil.
And there was Little White, hugging a ginseng and gnawing at it fiercely, emitting contented chirps from time to time.
"This is Heavenly Golden Ginseng!"
Xiao Ye thought of the totem he had seen outside, and his body shook with excitement, his eyes ablaze with fervor.
Outside, the introduction of Heavenly Golden Ginseng was simple—it could help a King Martial Realm martial artist consolidate their Blood Qi and Physical Body, and there was a certain chance to achieve King Body Completion!
Just this effect alone had made Xiao Ye envious for a long time.
Since his King Body reached Great Success, he searched for many ways to cultivate his King Body to perfection.
Unfortunately, even the Taiyi Palace had scant information and records about Perfect King Body. Only the Taiyi Holy Water could aid in achieving King Body Completion, and the path to perfection required the disciple to explore on their own.
Yet here was Heavenly Golden Ginseng in front of him, which could help Xiao Ye perfect his King Body. How could he not be excited?
Thinking of the power he would wield after achieving the Perfect King Body, Xiao Ye became uncontrollably ecstatic.
Watching Little White swiftly consume one Heavenly Golden Ginseng after another, Xiao Ye felt a pang of heartache.
"Little White, leave some for me. If you eat them all, be careful, I'll turn on you!"
Xiao Ye flew over and with a wave of his hand, invoked the King Martial Power to pluck a Heavenly Golden Ginseng and placed it into his Space Ring.
"Woo woo!"
Little White let out a dissatisfied cry, hugged a Heavenly Golden Ginseng tightly, and began to chomp away fiercely.
"Alright, alright, that one's for you. I won't fight you for it," Xiao Ye said with a chuckle.
There were more than twenty Heavenly Golden Ginsengs here, and giving a few to Little White was no problem.
Soon, Little White had gobbled down three ginsengs and started to wobble as if drunk, its white fur turning red as if scorched by fire before collapsing to the ground with a thud.
"Little White!"
Xiao Ye gathered the remaining eighteen Heavenly Golden Ginsengs and rushed over.
Upon examination, he discovered that Little White's body was brimming with terrifying energy swirling wildly, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, he was secretly amazed.
He was well aware of Little White's strength; it was certainly not weaker than his own.
Just three Heavenly Golden Ginsengs had brought Little White to this state, which showed the immense energy contained within the ginsengs.
Xiao Ye held Little White in his arms and after scanning to ensure he hadn't missed anything, he turned and left.
The valley was too big. Aside from Heavenly Golden Ginseng, there were surely many other treasures, which Xiao Ye was very much looking forward to.
Indeed, Xiao Ye soon made new discoveries.
He looked in the distance at the black flowers swaying gently in the wind and his breathing became rapid.
"My god, this... this is Heavenly Kui Flower!" Xiao Ye remembered the description from the mural and immediately became excited.
