1482: Chapter 1472: Getting the Treasure (Part Two)_1 1482: Chapter 1472: Getting the Treasure (Part Two)_1 “Let’s split up and search.

The Black Gold Ancestor must have hidden the treasure in a very covert place.”

The mansion was vast.

Long Yan decided to split up with Suofeng Ghost Emperor.

If Black Gold Ancestor really stowed the treasure here, even if they had to turn the entire mansion upside down, they must find it.

Later, Long Yan and Suofeng Ghost Emperor each chose a direction, let their divine sense loose and started searching the entire mansion.

Half a day later, Long Yan and Suofeng Ghost Emperor converged deep in the mansion, both shaking their heads.

They thoroughly searched the whole mansion, not overlooking even an inch of soil.

The most probable places like the study and the cultivation room were searched multiple times, but they couldn’t find any trace of the treasure.

Sect Leader, could the Black Gold Ancestor have put the treasure somewhere else?

Said the Suofeng Ghost Emperor.

If the treasure wasn’t in the mansion, there’s only one possibility — the Black Gold Ancestor must have put it somewhere else.

“Possibly.”

Long Yan frowned slightly; what Suofeng Ghost Emperor said wasn’t completely impossible.

“Let’s search more carefully; we must have overlooked something.”

Long Yan was still not ready to give up.

The possibility was highest that the Black Gold Ancestor had put the treasure here, surely it was just well hidden, and they hadn’t discovered it yet.

After that, Long Yan and Suofeng Ghost Emperor started searching again with even greater care.

Very quickly, Long Yan found himself inside a courtyard in the mansion’s farthest reaches.

“If it’s not here, then it really may not be here.”

He noticed the arrangement of this courtyard.

It seemed that very few people came here.

This was a forbidden area in the mansion.

The Black Gold Ancestor might have placed the treasure here.

The layout of the courtyard was simple and seemed more like a place for leisure.

In the center of the courtyard, there was a stone sculpture.

The stone sculpture was lifelike, the woman carved into it was breathtakingly beautiful with an extraordinary figure.

If she was a real person, she would have been a true beauty.

The woman was attired in palace garments with her hands gently overlapped on her lower abdomen; it was all quite natural.

“The Black Gold Ancestor is an old man with a youthful heart.

I hope he doesn’t spend his days gazing lustfully at this sculpture.”

Long Yan scorned in his heart.

However, his eyes were attentively examining the stone sculpture.

He had an intuition that the location of the hidden treasure was connected with this statue.

Just then, the Suofeng Ghost Emperor also arrived in the courtyard.

“This is Black Gold Ancestor’s old flame.

He created this sculpture here, probably for reminiscence.”

It seemed that Suofeng Ghost Emperor recognized the woman in stone and casually mentioned it without attaching much importance to it.

“Has this woman passed away?”

Long Yan asked.

Suofeng Ghost Emperor nodded slightly, replying, “That was a hundred years ago.

Speaking of which, this woman’s death was directly related to the Black Gold Ancestor.”

He only knew the basics and wasn’t very clear on the details.

“Sect Leader, if you suspect that Black Gold Ancestor has hidden the treasure in this sculpture, simply destroy it and we’ll know.”

So spoke Suofeng Ghost Emperor, offering the most straightforward method.

“I’ll take a closer look before we decide.”

Saying this, Long Yan approached and carefully surveyed the stone sculpture.

Finally, his gaze rested on the woman’s hands.

“Huh?”

Suddenly, Long Yan noticed that the stone sculpture of the woman had a ring on her ring finger.

The hand with the ring was on the inside and conveniently obscured by the other, making it difficult to spot.

Immediately, Long Yan reached out and took off the ring.

With a sweep of his divine sense, he directly entered the storage ring.

The next moment, a purple jade box flew out from the storage ring and was caught in Long Yan’s hand.

There was only this one box in the storage ring.

“The treasure must be inside.”

A smile appeared on Long Yan’s face.

The purple jade box still had a strong prohibition on it, obviously swept with the breath of the Black Gold Ancestor.

It was hidden so well that it must be something precious.

It was most likely the treasure.

“I didn’t expect the old ghost to hide the treasure in such a secret location.

If it weren’t for your keen eye, Sect Leader, we would have never discovered it.”

The Suofeng Ghost Emperor was also quite surprised.

Knowing the Black Gold Ancestor as he did, he hadn’t expected the Ancestor to be so cunning.

“Sect Leader, quickly open it to see if it’s a divine crystal.”

The Suofeng Ghost Emperor also grew expectant.

To his knowledge, the treasure the Black Gold Ancestor obtained all those years ago was definitely not simple.

Chi!

Long Yan pointed, the prohibition on the purple jade box was instantly shattered.

The box automatically opened itself, and a powerful wave of divinity surged out.

“This is…”

Seeing what was in the purple jade box, The Suofeng Ghost Emperor’s face was completely taken over by shock.

“The Divine Essence Flower.

Honestly, the Black Gold Ancestor had quite the luck.”

Long Yan was overjoyed.

He recognized the treasure in the box as the Divine Essence Flower at just one glance.

Inside the box, a spirit plant was lain down quietly.

It was about half a foot long.

Its roots, branches, leaves, and flowers were all preserved perfectly, and they were brimming with gentle divinity, giving off a refreshing sensation as if bathing in spring wind.

This was the Divine Essence Flower.

It was a remarkably rare heavenly treasure.

“So, the treasure the Black Gold Ancestor found was the Divine Essence Flower.

It is nearly as valuable as a divine crystal.

”

The Suofeng Ghost Emperor said, The Divine Essence Flower was a true divine treasure, its value was not much different than a divine crystal.

“This is indeed a rare item, and it’s all mine now.”

Long Yan gave the Divine Essence Flower a good inspection, then he closed the jade box, put up a prohibition on it, and put it away into the Azure Dragon Ring.

The Divine Essence Flower was indeed a true divine treasure.

The Black Gold Ancestor clearly lacked the ability to refine the Divine Essence Flower and had to hide it.

He probably intended to wait until his strength was sufficient to refine and integrate the flower.

“Ghost Emperor, getting this Divine Essence Flower was largely due to your contributions.

I will use the flower to help you undergo marrow cleansing.

When the time comes, your promotion to Supreme Emperor will be without question.”

Long Yan told the Suofeng Ghost Emperor.

If the Suofeng Ghost Emperor hadn’t told him this news, he wouldn’t have gotten the Divine Essence Flower.

Therefore, he definitely couldn’t let the Suofeng Ghost Emperor get short-changed.

The Divine Essence Flower was a true divine treasure.

Even for a Demigod Giant, refining the Divine Essence Flower was absolutely not easy.

But he had the Nine Suns Divine Cauldron, so refining the Divine Essence Flower would be simple.

According to the records in the Nine Suns Divine Cauldron, combined with some other Emperor Grade Medicinal Materials, he could refine the Divine Essence Liquid.

With the washing of the Divine Essence Liquid, the body naturally reveals more divinity, making cultivation much easier, equivalent to an upgrade in constitution.

Actually, in the Holy Domain, to nurture their juniors, many forces would choose to use Divine Essence Liquid to improve their juniors’ constitution.

Such things were extremely valuable in the Emperor Domain.

This Divine Essence Flower would be enough to refine some Divine Essence Liquid, perfect to help the people from the Zhenyang Sect cleanse their flesh.

“Thank you, Sect Leader!”

Hearing Long Yan’s words, the Suofeng Ghost Emperor’s face lit up with joy.

He saw hope.

Given his aptitude, getting to the Emperor Realm Peak would have already required massive opportunity.

As for becoming a Supreme Emperor, he didn’t even dare dream about it.

But Long Yan’s words gave him hope.

“I will cultivate here for a while, and you keep an eye on the news from all parties.

I need to figure out a way to go back to the Emperor Domain.”
