The huge chest was the treasure vault of Longteng Trading Company, inscribed with countless formations. However, all these formation runes had already expired.
So it looked like a huge steel box, but its weight was astonishing. Fortunately, the plaza was sturdy enough, or it would have been crushed by it.
Tang Wan'er and the female disciples were all stunned when Long Chen summoned a square steel box. They couldn't see anything unusual about the box.
"What is this?" Tang Wan'er couldn't help but ask.
Long Chen smiled faintly, slapped his large hand on the steel box, and with a loud bang, a crack appeared in the huge box. As the gap slowly opened, a portal appeared.
The massive gate, a hundred zhang thick, swung open. Everyone stared at the endless runes on top of the gate and the violently shattered bolt, their hearts trembling.
"Blind box opened. Fairies, explore the world inside the box to your heart's content. From today onward, everything inside the box belongs to you." Long Chen stood at the doorway, making a gesture of invitation.
Seeing Long Chen acting so mysterious, Tang Wan'er knew there must be something strange about the box. She believed that the gift Long Chen had prepared for her would definitely be a good gift.
However, when everyone stepped through the gate, including Tang Wan'er, everyone cried out in surprise. They finally realized that this was actually a treasure trove.
Inside the treasury were all kinds of divine weapons, pills, secret manuals, pet eggs, and other rare treasures, dazzling them with their eyes. Not only the female warriors, even Tang Wan'er had never seen such a luxurious treasury.
"So many Emperor-level divine weapons?"
The women saw the endless weapon racks before them, filled with secret divine weapons.
"Oh my god, I've never seen so many pills in my life."
Someone exclaimed in surprise. They saw countless baskets on a row of shelves, each basket filled with various pills, all of top-quality quality.
It was the first time in their lives they had seen pills stored in baskets. After all, they always packed pills one by one in brocade boxes, afraid of any bumps.
Here, these pills were piled up basket after basket like trash, leaving them so shocked they couldn't even close their mouths.
"Look, this is Wind Spirit Stones. Oh my god, there are so many." Someone cried out in surprise, their tongues curling with excitement.
"Oh my god..."
When they heard the words "Wind Spirit Stones," all the disciples were shocked. They hurried over. Inside a warehouse, Wind Spirit Stones were piled up like mountains, each containing pure wind energy flickering. The dazzling divine light reflected on everyone's faces, and their pretty faces were filled with disbelief.
These disciples were all wind-element experts, and their dependence on the Wind Spirit Stone even surpassed that of pills. The stone contained the purest and most primal wind energy in the world, an essential item for wind cultivators.
At that moment, they felt as if they were in a dream, someone secretly pinching them, wanting to see if they were dreaming.
"Long Chen, where did you get these treasures?" This time, even Tang Wan'er was stunned. Staring at the mountain of Wind Spirit Stones, she covered her cherry lips with her jade-like hand, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief. The Wind Spirit Stone was exactly what they needed most.
There were countless spirit stones in the world, but most were ordinary ones. Although they contained rich spiritual energy, they lacked any attributes.
Spirit stones with attributes are extremely rare, and among the many attribute spirit stones, wind attribute stones are especially rare, making them exceptionally precious.
Even the Wind God Sea Pavilion strictly controls Wind Spirit Stones, sometimes even surpassing pills. Because of the high consumption, Wind Spirit Stones have become extremely scarce. For ordinary Hidden Dragon warriors, they can only receive a few pills per month.
These few Wind Spirit Stones were nowhere near enough for their use, so for most of the time, they had to rely on the Spirit Gathering Array to cultivate, which would definitely slow their progress.
Most importantly, without the aid of the Wind Spirit Stones, their opportunities to comprehend the power of wind would decrease, and they felt a jealous hunger for the Wind Spirit Stones.
So the moment they saw the Wind Spirit Stone, their steps could no longer move, their eyes firmly captivated, unable to turn.
Seeing Tang Wan'er ask, Long Chen replied seriously, "
I recently made a deal. It's tiring, but the profit is considerable. I made a little money and prepared a gift. I hope Fairy Wan'er won't mind."
Seeing Long Chen start being smooth talker again, Tang Wan'er couldn't help but glare at him with reproach and said irritably, "
What kind of business is this? How could you make a treasure trove?" I don't believe your nonsense. "
For example... Zero-cost trading! Long Chen chuckled.
"You... Did you rob someone else's treasure vault? Only then did Tang Wan'er regain consciousness from the shock, her wisdom returning to her body. She looked at Long Chen in disbelief.
"Robbery sounds terrible, isn't it? I am the embodiment of a messenger of justice, fighting the strong and supporting the weak, robbing the rich to help the poor, and upholding justice.
Some people operate illegally, deceive and cheat people, and treat human lives lightly. I am extending a righteous hand to confiscate their illegal gains. Long Chen said with righteous determination.
Tang Wan'er was both shocked and amused. However, based on her understanding of Long Chen, he would never steal lightly. If he did, it would surely mean the other party had offended her too harshly.
Back on the Tianwu Continent, Long Chen had done many such things, and Tang Wan'er didn't press for details, refuting that what Long Chen gave her was hers.
"Sisters, from now on this treasure house is ours. Whatever you need, come and take it. Aren't you going to thank your brother Longchen?" Tang Wan'er shouted loudly.
"Thank you, Brother Long Chen!"
Tang Wan'er joined in coaxing them, and the women shouted excitedly, then began distributing the Wind Spirit Stones. However, each of them only took about a hundred pieces, which was enough for them to last for two months.
After everyone had taken it, the mountain of wind spirit stones showed no sign of shrinking. This pile of wind spirit stones was enough for them to last for several years.
Next, everyone began to distribute pills. But as they started choosing pills, Long Chen spoke: "You can take all the treasures here, except the pills." While
everyone was selecting pills, Long Chen's face suddenly became serious and told them not to take pills. Startled, they quickly put the pills they were holding back and looked at Long Chen, feeling a bit at a loss.
Tang Wan'er was also startled by Long Chen's sudden seriousness and tentatively asked, "Why?" "
Because these pills are so trash. With me here, the Hidden Dragon Legion warriors taking these pills would be a slap in my face, wouldn't they?" Long Chen said seriously.
"You bastard!"
Tang Wan'er angrily pinched Long Chen hard. Long Chen laughed heartily, and only then did everyone realize he was joking with them.
The women laughed too, but Long Chen told them not to take those pills—the quality was too poor. If there were better ones, who would eat the worse?
"Hehe, it's great to have you. I don't have to worry about anything. Just wait, I'll go expand the Hidden Dragon Legion right away." Tang Wan'er smiled excitedly, letting Long Chen stay behind and leave alone.
Long Chen looked at the female warriors before him, their faces beaming with happiness as they picked out various treasures, and a warm smile appeared at the corner of his mouth:
"Brothers, you will surely thank me in the future."
