Chapter 417
Su Hao quickly passed through the main hall and arrived at the entrance of another side hall, only to find that this side hall was also set up with multiple complex formations.
Su Hao immediately became hopeful: "Using formations for protection, doesn't it indicate that there are good things? What could it be?"
He injected spiritual power into the perception rune, instantly mapping out the entire structure of the side hall in his perception.
'Blink'!
The next moment, Su Hao appeared inside the side hall, taking in everything stored within it at a glance.
Su Hao couldn't help but feel excited: "Is this the alchemy room?"
In the center of the side hall was a huge alchemy furnace, entirely dark green in color, emitting a faint glow. There were many price tags set up in the room, with various bottles and jars filled with contents, and many books were also placed on one side of the shelf.
"Are these bottles filled with pills? Is there any Red Spring Refining Spirit Elixir?"
Su Hao didn't immediately touch those jars, but went to the bookshelf and pulled out a book titled "Jade Hua Pill Formula", then another one, "Water Rhyme Pill Formula" ... Su Hao also found a thick sheepskin book, flipping it open, he found records of the characteristics and effects of various spirit flowers and herbs, titled "Herb Record".
"It seems to be the alchemy room, let's take it away first! Judging from the accumulated dust, it seems to have not been used for a long time. I'll borrow it for research, he shouldn't mind."
Su Hao collected all the books into his pinball space and then directly transferred them to his storage space. He then approached the huge alchemy furnace in the center position, circling around it twice.
"What kind of structure is this? It looks quite complex! Let's take it away too!"
Su Hao pointed his hand, and the light distorted, causing the huge alchemy furnace to suddenly disappear in place.
At the same time, it seemed that he triggered some mechanism under his feet, and a spiritual power fluctuation spread out, causing Su Hao to instinctively retreat into the spatial barrier.
As long as it wasn't a high-energy explosion, Su Hao was confident that no flying technique or magical weapon could harm him.
Su Hao patiently waited for two seconds, but nothing happened: "What was that spiritual power fluctuation just now?"
He infused his blood qi into the ground, quickly figuring out the reason for the spiritual power fluctuation.
It was an alarm being triggered!
"This alarm system is quite sophisticated! Those three guys have already figured it out, let's move the stuff first!"
Su Hao quickly approached and transferred the entire shelf into his storage space.
As long as everything is moved away, the Red Spring Refining Elixir definitely won't escape. Once there's time available, I can quickly confirm which one is the Red Spring Refining Elixir by comparing and examining each item.
In just a few breaths, Su Hao emptied the entire side hall!
"Unity realm cultivators are quite fast at full speed. They should be back in about a minute. There's still some time, let's check the adjacent room."
With a blink, Su Hao appeared in the adjacent hall and found it to be a very common refining room, filled with various refining materials neatly arranged. The books on the adjacent shelves should correspond to the refining manuals.
Su Hao didn't have time to check them, quickly collecting everything into his storage space. In just over ten seconds, the entire side hall became empty.
Taking advantage of the remaining time, Su Hao quickly flashed through the entire palace, seeing everything being swiftly transferred into his storage space.
His storage space was spacious enough, it could accommodate everything!
"Hey! What are you doing, you little thief? Stop right there!"
As soon as a purple figure appeared in the hall, it was the sect leader Feng Jiutai. Seeing a tall crystal armored figure about to chop down a huge dark golden sculpture on the palace's facade, he couldn't help but shout to stop him!
That sculpture was made of extremely rare and valuable metals. If it were to be destroyed, where would his face be? He wouldn't dare to invite people here for gatherings in the future.
Faster than his voice, a purple light shot out, almost the moment he appeared, it had already pierced through Su Hao's body.
However, the scene of the purple light corroding the crystal armored figure to pieces didn't happen. Instead, it passed through the armored figure and hit the wall behind it, creating a large hole in the wall.
Meanwhile, the crystal armored figure's blade had already passed.
A cyan blade light flashed, accompanied by a metallic clang, and the huge sculpture separated from the bottom. Just as it was slowly tilting over, the crystal armored figure reached out and pressed on the sculpture.
The next moment, to Feng Jiutai's incredulous gaze, the huge sculpture disappeared from its original position.
This scene shook Shi Jian and Shan Jun, who had flown into the palace one after another, but despite their surprise, their attacks were relentless.
Two beams of light, one yellow and one dark red, struck towards Su Hao, blocking any room for Su Hao to maneuver, and their coordination was extremely tacit.
After moving the sculpture, Su Hao didn't intend to wait for the light to pass through his body. Instead, he directly blinked away from the palace, appearing thirty thousand meters away.
Upon appearing, Su Hao immediately looked at his abdomen. The green absolute defense light film on the armor was intact, but there was a faint circle of pale yellow on the inner layer of the crystal armor, slowly spreading outward, as if being struck by lightning.
Although the purple light attack from Feng Jiutai was redirected by Su Hao's spatial displacement, the purple light emitted by this spell still hit Su Hao's body when it approached, causing damage to Su Hao's body.
Although this damage was only manifested on the outer layer of the adamantium armor, it still made Su Hao feel lingering fear.
Just a strand of light emitted by a spell could corrode Su Hao's adamantium armor. He dared not imagine what would happen if he were directly hit by the spell.
The section of adamantium armor on his abdomen fell off, and Su Hao held it in his hand to observe: "The erosion is still ongoing. What kind of ray attack is this? It can actually ignore conventional shield defenses. It seems that the research on spells needs to be prioritized."
Su Hao still knew too little about Unity Realm Cultivators. If he hadn't rashly made contact this time, he would have suffered a big loss if he didn't have spatial abilities.
Even now, having spatial abilities doesn't guarantee safety!
"Faced with radiation-type and fluctuation-type attacks, my spatial displacement effect may not be as invincible as imagined!"
Su Hao looked towards the direction of Gao Yan Divine Cave and sighed deeply, thinking to himself, "Unity Realm cultivators are indeed not to be underestimated. Before I understand their attack methods, it's better not to confront them easily. Caution is advisable."
Su Hao had heard many stories of a slip between the cup and the lip and had experienced quite a few himself. He gradually understood the principle that caution breeds success.
The spirit of adventure must be there, but there must be a limit.
Su Hao thought to himself, "I've almost emptied the entire palace, and when the radar scanned those three cultivators, they didn't carry any bottles or jars with them. It's probable that they no longer possess the Red Spring Refining Elixir. It's better to retreat for now!"
If this still wasn't enough, Su Hao could only say 'this thing is not meant for me'. He couldn't just take the entire palace away, right?
After all, the house was the most valuable. Taking some small parts was understandable, but taking the entire house away would make Su Hao feel guilty.
Originally, Su Hao had wanted to cause trouble for the Elemental Contemplation Sanhe Peaks, but after witnessing the bizarre attacks of the Unity Realm Cultivators, Su Hao could only put that thought on hold for now. Although spatial abilities were strong and nearly invincible, they were not absolutely invincible.
"I can't rely too much on the ability of spatial barriers. Otherwise, one day I will encounter something I can't block. Just like today's purple light, I couldn't block it, and I also received some damage, although not serious. But what if this kind of light is magnified a thousand, ten thousand, or even a billion times?"
In the vast world, there are all kinds of wonders! What I can rely on is my knowledge and thinking ability, not just a certain skill or technique. That's my foundation, and I must not forget it."
With that in mind, Su Hao no longer hesitated. He located the positions of the "guides", Feng Lu, and Yuan Shan, with radar, and blinked directly to them.
As soon as Su Hao appeared, he startled the two of them. They quickly stepped forward to salute and said, "Senior Jia Wei, has this trip been successful?"
Su Hao smiled and said, "Not bad! I'll count it as a merit for both of you!"
Then he casually took out two spirit stones, one for each, and said, "This is your reward. Don't be polite, just take it!"
Feng Lu and Yuan Shan accepted with smiles and thanks, but inwardly they cursed, "Senior Jia Wei is so stingy! He's actually willing to give out just one spirit stone each? We thought he was going to reward us with some top-grade pills for enhancing cultivation!"
Although Feng Lu and Yuan Shan cursed Senior Jia Wei for being stingy, they finally let go of the anxiety that had been weighing on their hearts. They understood that they would live today!
Sure enough, the tall crystal armored figure chuckled and said, "Alright, that's it for this matter. You can leave on your own now!"
Upon hearing this, Feng Lu and Yuan Shan's tense spirits completely relaxed. Feng Lu's eyebrows, originally tense, lifted up again, turning into the appearance of an eagle spreading its wings.
Only to hear the crystal armored figure continue, "In the future, if there are opportunities for cooperation, I'll find you again. Goodbye!"
"Find us again?!!"
