Cutting the grass without removing the roots, and the spring breeze blows again, bringing new growth...
Whether it is Jiang Han or the White Lotus Sect, neither wants to stir up trouble!
"Spare my life!"
"I am willing to surrender, I am willing to surrender..."
"Ah, you will not have a good death!"
As the curses from the Qingcheng Sword Sect warriors gradually faded, they finally fell one by one into pools of blood, with no chance of survival.
Bai Ling walked up to Jiang Han and asked, "Sect Leader Jiang, now that all the people from the Qingcheng Sword Sect in the Sky-Connecting Armory are dead, according to our agreement, you can go collect your spoils."
It had been previously agreed that the spoils from this battle would belong solely to Jiang Han.
Jiang Han glanced at her indifferently and said, "Are you teaching me how to do my job?"
Bai Ling was taken aback by his gaze and retreated repeatedly, feeling embarrassed and angry when she realized what had happened.
"This guy..."
Bai Ling bit her silver teeth and stomped her delicate embroidered shoes several times in frustration, secretly resenting that fool for being so insensitive.
Jiang Han pretended not to see her and turned away directly.
He stepped into the center of the battlefield, raised his hand, and gathered all valuable items from the ground into his possession, storing them in his Xumi space.
There were more than ten martial arts manuals, but most were only of the Xuan level. The Earth-Level Martial Arts barely had three books: one intermediate-level and two advanced-level, which could be taken back to Bright Summit to enrich the Manichaeism's Scripture Repository and Daoist Scripture Hall!
There were more alchemical pills—over ten types—mostly auxiliary cultivation pills. While they had some value, it was not as significant as expected.
Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were even rarer!
Jiang Han unexpectedly found three full jade vials of Thousand-Year Earth Core Milk from the corpse of a Martial Arts Grandmaster!
"Not bad," Jiang Han said with a beaming smile.
Such Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are far more valuable than ordinary spiritual herbs and pills. Pills are known to have toxic effects and cannot be consumed in large quantities for long periods, as they can damage a martial artist's foundation, leading to irreparable consequences. Therefore, generally speaking, the more prestigious the sect, the more cautious they are in using pills. In contrast, wandering cultivators and smaller sects are often eager to obtain such resources for cultivation.
Compared to pills, Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures are clearly of a higher grade; they are extraordinary items that possess the ability to change one's fate. Moreover, there are no side effects associated with Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. The three vials of Thousand-Year Earth Core Milk in his hands, if consumed, would likely have terrifying effects such as cleansing the marrow and enhancing one's aptitude.
Even the Orange Lotus Envoy of the White Lotus Sect was envious and felt a surge of desire. If it weren't for Jiang Han's seemingly amused yet chilling expression, she might have been unable to resist the urge to snatch them away.
Carefully storing the jade vials into his Mustard Seed Xumi Space, Jiang Han continued his treasure-hunting endeavor. However, unfortunately, what he found next left him with a sense of tastelessness—things that were better off discarded. Most were broken and damaged weapons; there were only three heavenly-grade divine weapons, while there were more earthly-grade sharp tools. Unfortunately, none were completely intact.
Seeing that Jiang Han had finished collecting his spoils, Bai Ling revealed a slight smile on her face. She addressed those around her, saying, "Let's search the area quickly and leave here."
The Martial Arts Grandmasters from the White Lotus Sect nodded in agreement and immediately began to scour the vicinity.
Jiang Han did not oppose the help from the White Lotus Sect; after all, all the gains would ultimately end up in his hands. This had been agreed upon beforehand. If Jiang Han were just an ordinary Fusion Realm cultivator, the White Lotus Sect would undoubtedly go back on their word and treat their promises as mere nonsense. But unfortunately for them, he was not.
The warriors from the White Lotus Sect were quite proud, having stood for thousands of years while opposing both the imperial court and the entire martial world. Although they had been at a disadvantage, they had never broken their lineage, which demonstrated their strength and deep-rooted heritage. However, with Jiang Han revealing his power, the warriors of the White Lotus Sect no longer had the right to be proud in his presence. Thus, they agreed to honor their previous commitment and not take a single bit of the remaining spoils.
The Sword Forging Pavilion was mostly emptied out, so there were limited good items left. What Jiang Han truly sought was the core of the Sky-Connecting Armory, specifically the Scripture Repository. That was where various cultivation methods and even divine weapons would be buried.
The true core of any sect is always the Scripture Repository, followed by the ancestral hall; both are essential for inheritance! After exiting the Sword Forging Pavilion, everyone began searching in a specific direction. The White Lotus Sect possessed some records from their ancestors who had ventured into the Sky-Connecting Armory, so they did not need to deliberately seek an exit; they simply needed to follow the map and look for buildings that might contain treasures.
However, the Sky-Connecting Armory had suffered a great calamity, leaving many buildings severely damaged; most had collapsed, bearing various scars that made it nearly impossible to recognize what this place had once been used for. At that moment, Jiang Han suddenly asked, "You from the White Lotus Sect have a long-standing heritage; you should know the details about this Sky-Connecting Armory, right?"
Bai Ling nodded. She naturally knew about the Sky-Connecting Armory's background because many years ago, the Holy Mother of the White Lotus had mentioned it to her during her leisure time.
