C42 (1/2)

The treasury didn't have any windows, but the treasury wasn't completely dark. There were quite a few glowing stones embedded into the walls of the treasury. The entire treasury glowed with a faint yellow light, allowing people to clearly see everything inside.

After clearly seeing the situation within the ”treasury”, Leng Jun was somewhat disappointed. This was because this was not the 'treasury' as he had imagined. The entire room was empty, devoid of anything.

Leng Jun was not willing to give up. After searching a few rounds inside the ”treasury”, he finally found a hidden compartment. He opened the secret compartment and saw that there was a staircase leading to the upper floor.

Leng Jun smiled and thought: ”I really did not find the wrong place!”

Thinking about it, Leng Jun walked up the stairs inside the secret compartment.

The ”treasury” had a total of six floors. The first five floors were the same, but there was nothing inside except for empty rooms. When he reached the top floor, he finally had something inside the room.

The room on the top floor of the treasury was small compared to the room below. It looked like an ancestral hall. Opening the hidden staircase's secret door, what entered his vision was a statue that was about the same size as him.

The statue was made of pure gold, and the figure was extremely majestic. It seemed like the statue was over ten thousand jin in weight. Based on the price of this statue, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was a treasure trove. Unfortunately, it wasn't easy to move such a heavy statue, much less bring it away. It was truly a wonder how he managed to carry it into the 'treasury' back then.

Other than the statue, there was a altar in the room with a few offerings on it. There were also two prayer mats in front of the altar, which looked like they were meant for people to kneel and worship statues.

Leng Jun looked around the entire room, and when he realized that there was nothing else he could hide, he was disappointed. It looked like this wasn't the real ”treasury” he was looking for.

Leaving just like that, Leng Jun was truly unresigned in his heart. Moreover, this was the 'treasury' that he had identified. Since he had entered the treasure mountain, how could he return empty-handed? In the end, Leng Jun's gaze landed on the sculpture that was made of pure gold.

Of course, he couldn't move a ten thousand pound statue, but the clothes on the statue were different. That set of clothes was made from gold thread strung together with various types of precious stones. Each of the gems on the clothes was not small compared to the one that Leng Jun had obtained from Jia Tian Ren previously.

Leng Jun did not hold back, flying up and taking off the clothes made from gems from the sculpture's body. There were hundreds of gems, but there was nowhere to store them. Leng Jun then took off his white robe and put it on before putting it back on again. This way, even though it looked a lot fatter, it was actually more convenient to move around.

After leaving the ”treasury”, Leng Jun still refused to give up. He saw that it was still some time before daybreak, so he once again searched for a new ”treasury” within his Divine Palace that was open to the rain at night.

Just as Leng Jun was about to cross the two courtyards, he suddenly saw a figure that suddenly appeared in the courtyard.

Leng Jun secretly thought: ”Not good, I'm afraid it's a Divine Officer from the Divine Palace?”

He hurriedly jumped to a corner of the wall and hid himself under the cover of the dark rain.

Unexpectedly, the black figure seemed to have discovered him, and did not leave. Instead, it took out a longsword and similarly concealed itself under a roof, staring straight at Leng Jun.
