The crisp shattering sound made everyone faintly feel it. It was as if an invisible wall before their eyes had been completely shattered at this moment.
"It's safe now, let's go in."
Seeing the protective barrier break apart, Tianhuo Zun lowered his arm and gave a small smile to the group.
Hearing this, Lin Feng led Xiao Yixian toward the palace doors. The rest followed closely behind them, not daring to fall even a step behind.
After all, the Golden Body Sect was still a faction with a name across the entire Western Desolate Region. Naturally, everyone was full of anticipation toward the sect's treasury. They all wanted to see what kind of extraordinary treasures were hidden inside.
"Rumble~"
As Lin Feng pushed open the stone gate, in an instant, dazzling golden light burst out from within the treasury, causing everyone's eyes to narrow slightly.
But the group, being strong experts, quickly adapted to the brilliance and cast their gazes inside. What they saw was a vast palace interior, lined with countless rows of wooden racks.
A conservative estimate put the number at over three hundred. On the racks closest to the entrance, stored were endless golden orbs, as well as transparent jade bottles filled with golden liquid.
The light radiating from these beast cores and blood essences gathered together, so that even without a single lamp, the entire treasury shone brilliantly.
"Such a massive collection... worthy of a force guarded by a Dou Zun."
Staring at the sheer number of gold-attribute beast blood and cores, Lin Feng couldn't help clicking his tongue in amazement.
As his soul power swept over the beast blood and cores, he suddenly noticed something unusual. He found that the racks were filled mostly with Rank 4 magic beast cores and blood essence.
"Strange... didn't the Myriad Steel Tempering Technique require at least Rank 6 gold-attribute magic beast blood and cores for body refinement?"
Sensing those Rank 4 beast cores and blood essence, Lin Feng frowned inwardly. Then, taking Xiao Yixian's delicate jade-like hand, he stepped further inside.
Walking within the radiance of so much golden light, Lin Feng even felt as if he were in some kind of dreamscape.
"These bastards of the Golden Body Sect, hoarding so many gold-attribute beast cores and blood essence for body refinement. Over the years, they must have slaughtered countless members of our kind... who knows how many of the cores and blood here were ripped from our clansmen?"
Glaring at the racks full of golden beast cores and blood, the Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan's clan leader cursed bitterly.
As for Lin Feng, he simply strode further in. He knew, the things placed near the entrance were surely not the most valuable.
The true treasures of this treasury had to be deeper within. And as he ventured further, the quality of items around him did indeed improve, just as he had expected.
Reaching the end of the treasury, the first thing that caught Lin Feng's eye was a wooden rack. Then, his gaze shifted to the empty space at the very back—where two massive golden beast corpses lay.
"Those are... Rank 8 magic beast corpses?!"
Sensing the faint pressure still lingering around the two dead beasts, Lin Feng was stunned.
Immediately, his expression turned to sheer delight. If he could obtain two full sets of Rank 8 gold-attribute beast blood essence and cores, it would be an enormous gain for him!
Thinking this, Lin Feng's steps quickened as he rushed toward the spot where the corpses lay.
"Hehe, looks like you're going to be disappointed. The blood essence and magic cores of these two magic beasts have already been taken."
Arriving at the corpses, Xiao Yixian lowered her head for a look, then covered her mouth and chuckled softly.
"Your husband's treasures got stolen and you're laughing? Careful, or tonight I'll use family rules on you."
Seeing Xiao Yixian laugh like that, Lin Feng rolled his eyes and scolded helplessly.
These two Rank 8 magic beast corpses without beast cores or blood essence made him realize his earlier joy was for nothing.
Originally, he had thought this time he could immediately gather two full sets of Dou Zun-level Sky Demon Puppet materials. But unexpectedly, all he got was just two Dou Zun-level magic beast corpses.
As for the beast cores of Rank 8 beasts, he would still have to find those elsewhere. Hearing his words, Xiao Yixian's pretty face flushed as she shot him a glare, as if blaming him for bringing up such things in front of everyone. But she did not voice any objection.
The group following behind them soon caught up as well.
At first, they had been thrilled when they sensed the level of the two beast corpses. But when they saw the two gaping empty holes in the skulls and chests of the beasts, in an instant, they all fell into disappointment.
Without beast cores and blood, the value of the corpses plummeted. All that was left was harvesting parts from them to forge weapons or armor. Still, thinking of the claws or hides of Rank 8 magic beasts, their worth for forging weapons and armor was undeniably high.
So the group regained a little spirit.
"These two beast corpses, I'm interested in them, so I'll be taking them. As for the pills on those racks, I won't touch them."
At this moment, Lin Feng turned toward the Sand Land Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan's group and spoke.
Hearing this, the Golden-Tailed Scorpion Clan's Grand Elder looked at the two corpses with heartache. But in the end, he helplessly nodded and said, "Do as you wish."
After all, they had agreed beforehand that Lin Feng would have first pick of the treasury's items.
Hearing this, Lin Feng, under the reluctant gazes of the others, stored the two beast corpses into his ring.
When the corpses disappeared completely from view, the others finally shifted their eyes away with great reluctance.
However, when they caught sight of the jade bottles on the racks filled with pills, they all let out a sigh of relief. Their faces quickly shifted from reluctance to joy.
There were quite a few pills on those racks, and altogether, they were worth a fortune. After putting away the corpses, Lin Feng walked up to the wooden rack at the very end of the treasury. There, laid out were more than a dozen precious cultivation techniques and Dou Techniques.
Seeing them, Lin Feng immediately began flipping through.
The Golden Body Sect was famed for its powerful physiques, so naturally, the cultivation techniques and Dou Techniques stored in its treasury were related to body refinement.
And at this moment, what Lin Feng wanted most was a high-level Dou Technique in this exact category. Therefore, among these, perhaps he would find what he sought.
"High-Grade Earth Class Dou Technique, Myriad Steel Shattering Body Fist... this scroll will do."
After flipping for a while, Lin Feng finally picked up a golden scroll, smiling faintly.
