587 Prized Treasure (1/2)

As well as Jiang Jingtao, every single other ancient martial art practitioner was looking for the spiritual stone storeroom.

Mo Wen crossed his arms behind his back and simply smiled without a word. Nobody had expected that he would possess a storage ring. Long before anyone else had come looking, he had already taken all of the spiritual stones. After all, the storage ring was something that was difficult for even an Immortal Cultivator to obtain. It was a rare item for them, and it was even rare for an ancient martial art practitioner to possess one. Hence, nobody had expected that Mo Wen would have such an item.

The entire group of ancient martial art practitioners felt very perplexed. Everything but the spiritual stone storeroom was there Logically speaking, spiritual stones were something that had to be present. Luofeng Sect had been so strong 600 years ago. Hence, it was impossible for them to not even have a single spiritual stone.

There was disappointment in the eyes of some of the ancient martial art practitioners. After all, other than some unique items, the spiritual stones were the most valuable items. Many of the ancient martial art practitioners had rushed over to Luofeng Sect simply for the huge spiritual stone storeroom. In the end, after looking all day, they did not even manage to find a trace of a spiritual stone.

To an ancient martial art practitioner, although a spiritual stone could not be considered as an item for cultivation, it could be used for trade with Huatian Palace. It could be said that as long one had sufficient spiritual stones, one could buy anything from Huatian Palace.

Suddenly, the Sect Leader of Medical Sect, Jiang Pingzhou, turned to look at Mo Wen. His eyes were gleaming particularly brightly as he looked straight into Mo Wen's eyes. ”I am very confused about one thing. Why is it that the first palace hall is completely empty? It is absolutely impossible for Luofeng Sect to construct a palace hall with no purpose at all, right? I wonder if you can explain this phenomenon.”

Prior to that, he had already been curious as to why the palace hall was completely empty, without a single item at all. By right, such a situation was almost impossible. Previously, he had not cared about it too much. But now, his most anticipated spiritual stones were gone. Hence, he could not help but feel suspicious.

If there had been spiritual stones in the palace hall, the disappearance of the spiritual stones must have an explanation. One possibility could be that Mo Wen had used some method to hide all the spiritual stones. Otherwise, something must have happened in the past, meaning that Luofeng Sect had not managed to deposit all their spiritual stones in the storeroom.

After Jiang Pingzhou spoke, the gazes of all the ancient martial art practitioners in the surrounding area were fixed on Mo Wen. They also noticed something very odd. Out of the six palace halls, there were five that had huge amounts of resources. There was only one palace hall that was completely empty.

They had already thought it was mysterious but now that Jiang Pingzhou had clearly pointed it out, everyone finally thought carefully about it. Mo Wen had been the first person to enter. Could it be that the disappearance of the spiritual stones had something to do with him?

”Who are you asking me? Does Sect Leader Jiang really think that I am able to hide all the spiritual stones under everyone's scrutiny?” Mo Wen rubbed his hands together. He calmly said, ”If you really want to think that way, I must admit it. I only have that so space in my body, how many spiritual stones could I actually store?”

He did not believe that the ancient martial art practitioners present at the moment would think of the possibility of a storage ring. After all, there were not many people amongst ancient martial art practitioner that knew of the storage ring. It was very unlikely for anyone to think that deeply.

The surrounding ancient martial art practitioners studied Mo Wen thoroughly. Then, they began to shake their heads. They no longer thought that the disappearance of the spiritual stones was related to Mo Wen. After all, Mo Wen had only entered a moment earlier than them. It was impossible for him to hide all the spiritual stones within such a short period of time. It was even more impossible for him to hide so many of them in his body.
