Chapter 1422 - Treasure Cave
Tang Huan"s eyes turned and looked at the five holes in the ground. The grey robed man and the other people had already been pulled out by the Qian Yuan Sky Sect cultivators.
After consuming the medicine, they had already woken up from their coma, but their faces were pale and dispirited. When they met Tang Huan"s gaze, they could not help but lower their heads with faces full of shame and resentment. They joined hands to attack the enemy, but failed to find a hole to hide in.
Tang Huan scoffed, and ignored them, walking towards the treasure cave.
The two hundred Heavenly Palace disciples, the white clothed female and the other cultivators from the various sects, thought that Tang Huan was preparing to attack the entrance to the cave, so they quickly followed. The yellow clothed man, the grey clothed man, and the rest of the Heavenly Scholars exchanged glances. In the end, they gritted their teeth with a dark expression and followed behind him.
Not long later, Tang Huan stopped at the entrance of the cave to watch.
"Brother Tang, we will do as you say." The woman in white couldn"t help but ask.
"No rush."
Tang Huan waved his hand, "I"ll take a look first!"
After he finished speaking, Tang Huan"s right palm had already pressed down on the entrance of the cave.
The woman in white and the others looked at each other in dismay.
"Deliberately mystifying!" The yellow clothed man behind him couldn"t help but twitch his lips and sneer, "Does he think he"s some kind of genius to be able to understand the dao diagram on this door?"
"Let"s see what he can pull off!"
The gray-robed man and the others all had dark looks on their faces, while hatred filled their hearts.
Under everyone"s gazes, Tang Huan stood there quietly for a long while before finally opening his eyes. Although his face did not change, his heart was exclaiming.
Above the cave entrance, the complexity of the dao diagram was somewhat surpa.s.sing Tang Huan"s imagination.
Even with his probing and extrapolation abilities, it would take him at least ten days and a half to completely understand it. Fortunately, after being immersed in the lake for a long time, the effect of the dao diagram had greatly decreased.
In such a situation, it would be very easy for Tang Huan to destroy this diagram.
In a blink of an eye, Tang Huan had activated the "Primal Chaos Dao Flame" within the Dantian"s cauldron to the extreme. Threads and wisps of fire penetrated through the palm of his hand and into the hole, and then began to wildly spread like a spider web along the dao diagram. Tang Huan did not plan to decipher the dao diagram, but to directly destroy it.
This method was also very crude, but compared to the strength of the gathered cultivators, it was much more gentle.
In the next moment, the Heavenly Mansion disciples, the white-clothed woman and the other cultivators were all stunned. The grey robed man, the yellow robed man, and the other cultivators from the Heaven Origin Sect and the Limitless Temple all froze in their sneers, as if they had seen a ghost.
Under the attentive gaze of the crowd, the runes on the door of the cave continuously melted, with Tang Huan"s right palm as the center.
In just the blink of an eye, the faint glimmer on the door dimmed, and the lines and patterns within a meter of it had completely disappeared. Moreover, the range of the lines and patterns were still rapidly expanding, and within the span of a few breaths, all the lines and patterns had already melted away.
If the lines were gone, it meant that the dao diagram on the door had also disappeared!
The reason why they could not even open the cave entrance with all their might was because of the dao diagram on the door. However, Tang Huan could only press his palm and the dao diagram disappeared without a trace.
What kind of technique did he use?
"Creak …"
Suddenly, intense rubbing sounds woke everyone up, they looked over, only to see the heavy door was slowly being pushed open by Tang Huan"s hands.
Without the effect of the dao diagram, the door was no different from an ordinary stone door. Not to mention Huang Ji, even someone with seven transformations could easily open it.
The crack in the door grew larger and larger, and a multicolored light shot out from it.
"Dao Stone!" "So many dao stones!"
"Haha, this time we really did it."
"That place must even have mid-grade Dao stones!"
"..."
Voices rose and fell one after another.
Everyone"s eyes were wide open, and all kinds of expressions could be seen on their faces: excitement, excitement, shock, and greed. Some of the cultivators even subconsciously charged towards the inside the cave. However, when Tang Huan shot them a glance, he immediately calmed them down.
Tang Huan also never thought that there would be so many dao stones inside.
He, Lei Jiayuan and the others had been searching the banks of the Dark Nether Lake for such a long time. Amongst the treasures they had obtained, most of them were immortal herbs and only had a little more than 80 dao stones. However, in the vast s.p.a.ce of the treasure cave, there were tens of thousands of Dao stones piled up like a mountain. There were even many mid-grade Dao stones.
After Tang Huan entered the cave, his eyebrows were also filled with a smile.
The cave was s.p.a.cious, but there was nothing else apart from the dao stones. However, with so many dao stones inside, he could freely forge dao artifacts.
"Everyone, we shall now begin distributing the Dao stones!"
Then, Tang Huan shouted loudly.
Each of the four groups of cultivators picked a cultivator to grab a Dao stone. Every time a cultivator from the Emperor Dragon"s Heavenly Mansion captured six of them, the white-clothed woman would capture two of them. As for the grey robed man who represented Qian Yuan Heavenly Sect and the yellow robed man who represented Everlasting Temple, they could only capture one each.
The large pile of Dao Stones was quickly distributed.
This cave had a total of 9,632 low-grade Dao stones and 408 medium-grade Dao stones, which added up to just over 10,000. Among them, the Royal Dragon Heavenly Mansion"s cultivators received sixty percent, the Heaven"s Qian Yuan Sect and the Limitless Temple each received ten percent, and the many cultivators represented by the white-clothed woman received twenty percent.
With such a large number of dao stones, even if it were just ten percent, there would still be a thousand. However, when it was distributed to everyone, there weren"t that many. There were only a few.
The white-clothed female and the others did not complain, but the cultivators of the Heaven"s Expanse Sect and Limitless Temple looked at the pile of Dao Stones in front of Tang Huan with indignation. Ten thousand Dao-Stones. The imperial clan had taken six thousand. How could they be willing to give up?
"Everyone, it"s your turn."
With regards to the expressions of the st.u.r.dy grey-clothed man and the yellow-clothed man, Tang Huan didn"t mind at all as he smiled and signaled to the Heavenly Palace"s disciples.
Hearing this, the Heavenly Mansion cultivators who had long lined up in groups began to move excitedly.
If they were to split the six thousand spirit stones equally, almost everyone would be able to obtain thirty of them. However, what surprised Tang Huan was that these disciples of the Heavenly Palace seemed to have agreed on a long time ago, each of them only went forward to grab five low grade dao stones, and they did not even touch a single middle grade dao stone.
