Monarch Of Time

Chapter 768 - 768 Huo Wuyi's Treasures

Naturally, this wooden chest was the same chest that Shun Long had obtained from the core region of the 'Dragon Lord's villa' back in the Night star continent along with Liu Mei.

According to the information that Huo Wuyi had left in his memory jade, only if someone brought this chest to the mountain outside Murong city would they then be able to obtain his treasures.

During these past few years, Shun Long had been unable to understand the runes on the chest's surface, but now... he only needed to take a single look at them to understand what was going on.

Closing his eyes, Shun Long circulated his 'Monarch's Hourglass' as he injected his qi directly into the wooden chest in his hands. The runes on the chest's surface all lit up one after the other as they started to rapidly absorb Shun Long's qi, before Shun Long could feel an indistinct connection slowly appearing in his mind.

The connection was quite weak in the beginning, but as time passed, it started to become stronger and stronger, before Shun Long realized what was going on.

''So that's how it is...'' After a brief moment of silence Shun Long muttered to himself as he stared at the wooden chest in his hands, before he turned his gaze towards a certain direction in the 'Elderwood mountain'.

In the next moment, a black panther could be seen flying through the 'Elderwood mountain' at full speed, with a black-robed young man sitting on its back.

Although there were quite a number of magic beasts living on this 'Elderwood mountain', most of them were rank 4 or rank 5 beasts, and after sensing Little Silver's aura that was clearly at the peak of rank 6, those magic beasts immediately retreated without a second thought.

At the same time, as Little Silver flew around the 'Elderwood mountain', Shun Long noticed the hundreds of 'Elderwood trees' that were present everywhere around him.

This was where the 'Elderwood mountain' had taken its name from, as 'Elderwood trees' were truly abundant in this place.

However, even though 'Elderwood trees' were also considered as rank 6 medicinal ingredients that alchemists could use to refine pills, in reality, there were very few alchemists who would truly use them to concoct their pills.

The reason behind that, was because 'Elderwood trees' were extremely sturdy and were very hard to refine into pills, while the medicinal essence inside them was almost nonexistent.

Even peak rank 3 gold-grade alchemists who used the power of an earth flame would have to expend large amounts of their spiritual strength just to refine a single 'Elderwood tree'.

This was why, unless absolutely necessary, most alchemists would avoid using an 'Elderwood tree' during a pill concoction.

However, although 'Elderwood trees' didn't contain much medicinal essence inside them, 'Elderwood King trees' were a completely different story.

'Elderwood King trees' could be used to refine high-grade and even top-grade rank 6 medicinal pills, and they could also be used as supplementary ingredients by star-rank alchemists who refined rank 7 pills!

And yet, even after searching for more than an hour, Shun Long didn't find even a single 'Elderwood King tree'.

Of course, Shun Long wasn't too surprised by this either since he had already guessed, that even if there were any 'Elderwood King trees' in this place, the Murong family would have already taken them all away.

As for those normal 'Elderwood trees', as long as someone didn't try to take away dozens of them at once, the Murong family wouldn't care.

Finally, after flying around the 'Elderwood mountain' for more than an hour, Little Silver finally stopped as it arrived in front of the entrance of an inconspicuous forest.

No matter how someone looked at it, there was nothing special about this forest, and yet Shun Long could sense that the runes on the wooden chest in his hands were pointing directly at a certain tree inside this forest.

A few moments later, Shun Long arrived in front of a normal-looking 'Elderwood tree', that was slightly smaller than the others around it.

This 'Elderwood tree' didn't seem to be any different from the others around it except that its bark seemed to be much older, and yet, the moment that Shun Long got close to it, the entire tree started to tremble.

A moment later, a finger-sized hole appeared close to the heart of the tree, before a small black object suddenly flew out from it and shot towards the wooden chest in Shun Long's hands.

Staring at the oval-shaped spatial ring that seemed to have embedded itself on the wooden chest in his hands, Shun Long smiled as he mumbled to himself

''No wonder people didn't find this thing for so long. A spatial ring made from the same 'Elderwood King tree' as the wooden chest hidden inside an ordinary 'Elderwood tree'... without the wooden chest, someone would have to uproot every single 'Elderwood tree' in this place before they found it.''

With a satisfied smile, Shun Long tossed Huo Wuyi's spatial ring inside the 'Stone of Time', before he jumped on Little Silver's back and flew out of the small forest, as he looked for a place to stay and check the ring's contents.

2 hours later, inside a small, isolated cave near the foot of the mountain, Shun Long sat cross-legged on the ground with Little Silver by his side, as he took out the oval-shaped spatial ring from the 'Stone of Time' and placed it in front of him.

Just like the wooden chest, Shun Long understood, that this oval-shaped spatial ring was most likely created by Huo Wuyi himself.

Without any hesitation, Shun Long closed his eyes, as he sent his soul sense inside the oval-shaped spatial ring, curious to see what type of treasures Huo Wuyi had left behind.

No matter what, Shun Long was certain that the contents of this spatial ring would be many times better than the treasures in the core region of the 'Dragon Lord's villa'!
