Da Xuan Martial Saint

“Very good.”

Chen Mu’s face revealed a hint of a smile.

One or two hundred jin of Xunmu Spirit Liquid was not a small amount, and it was his first gain upon entering here, while the royal secret vault had accumulated resources from the Da Xuan over a thousand years. Clearly, it held far more than just these.

He stepped forward into this hidden vault, first gesturing with his hand to collect the one or two hundred jin of Xunmu Spirit Liquid into the Qiankun Bottle, then proceeded forward to look at the other items placed behind.

The first thing that caught his eye was a jar that seemed neither ceramic nor jade.

Chen Mu picked up the jar and saw it contained around twenty dark brown leaves. They looked very ancient, without any extraordinary qualities, resembling ordinary tree leaves.

“What is this?”

Chen Mu carefully examined but couldn’t identify them, so he turned to the accompanying Grandmaster Imperial Supervisor for an answer.

The Grandmaster Imperial Supervisor cautiously glanced at them, furrowing his brow at first, then seeming thoughtful. After a moment, he said, “If the old servant is not mistaken, these should be ‘Enlightenment Ancient Tea Leaves.’ They are spiritual objects the previous emperor sought from the Great Wilderness, said to be beneficial for comprehending Heaven and Earth. There used to be many, but now only this small amount remains.”

As he spoke,

he also carefully observed this royal secret vault.

As an Imperial Supervisor, and a Marrow Cleansing Realm palm-imprint eunuch, he wielded some power, but he only had a vague idea about the mansion treasury’s matters, while the royal secret vault hidden deep inside was wholly unknown to him.

However, being an attendant of the Imperial Supervisor, he inevitably knew some things that common people didn’t.

“Enlightenment Ancient Tea Leaves, hmm.”

Chen Mu showed a thoughtful expression, then put away all of the twenty or so Enlightenment Tea Leaves in the jar.

Since they’re from the Great Wilderness, they should be good. Previously, after casually killing Yang Qingshan, who had a damaged soul heart and was not in a clear mind, he took the ‘Divine Spirit Pearl’ and glanced at it, only to find its construction extremely intricate and not easily comprehensible at his current realm. It needed further study.

He continued forward.

Placed on the jade platform was a dark black lotus platform, showcasing three interwoven lotus platforms.

Three-grade Dark Soul Lotus!

Chen Mu had previously obtained Dark Soul Lotus in the Ice State Abyss by chance, yet at that time only gaining one complete Soul Lotus and one damaged. However, the present Dark Soul Lotus was not only intact but of much higher quality!

“Three-grade Dark Soul Lotus, hmm, uncertain whether it’s useful for me now.”

Chen Mu revealed a pensive look.

The Soul Lotus back then significantly enhanced his power of the soul heart, but now his soul heart has undergone solidifying refinement with the Red Birth Fruit and the tempering of Heaven and Earth Infusion. Compared to back then, it’s no longer the same.

Even though this Soul Lotus is a three-grade lotus platform, of higher quality, it may not have much effect on him, but being extremely rare and precious spiritual objects, he can provide them for people around him if useless to him.

Swish.

Chen Mu casually waved his hand, putting away this Dark Soul Lotus as well.

Taking another step forward, he saw a variety of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Items on the White Jade platform. There were many he still recognized, while others even he couldn’t discern as he moved forward.

The accompanying Grandmaster Imperial Supervisor also shook his head in lack of recognition, only guessing that many probably came from the Great Wilderness, but what effects they had or their roles were unknown.

Dragon Phoenix Flower,

Yin Autumn Divine Water,

Red Jade Return to Origin Fruit,

Tricolored Spirit Grass,

…

Item by item of extraordinary spiritual objects, whether recognized by Chen Mu or not, were collected into his pouch, including Heaven and Earth Dew-like longevity type spiritual objects, thirty-plus drops in total, far more than he had acquired in the Earthly Abyss before, all accepted without refusal.

Meanwhile, as he was wantonly looting in the royal secret vault,

Jade Capital.

News of incidents within the Imperial City had spread like turbulent waves across the Capital, shocking and astonishing everyone in Jade Capital City, from high-ranking figures to wealthy merchants.

The Da Xuan Dynasty Court had ruled the land for over a thousand years, who could have imagined the day would come when someone single-handedly toppled it?!

Now.

Chen Mu, through force, had swept across the Capital, overriding royal authority. What will the future hold for Jade Capital and the entire realm?

No one knows the answer. Just the transmission of this news takes a long time for them to digest, with various factions preferring inaction over error, issuing orders for everyone to remain indoors, awaiting the outcome of the changes within the Imperial City, to then decide how to respond.

…

Southwest of the Imperial City.

Here stood a magnificent and imposing building complex, located outside the court range, not belonging to the imperial palace but one of the royal palaces guarding it, few of which hadn’t been reclaimed since Ji Xuanfei took the throne.

This was King Liang’s Mansion!

Deep within the mansion, in a tranquil courtyard, a tall silhouette stood at the edge of the eaves, gazing towards the Imperial City. Her attire was luxurious, and her robust Inner Breath revealed her status as a Grandmaster-level figure, not just any Grandmaster, but one among the top hundred listed in the Grandmaster rank across the realm.
