Chapter 322 Treasury (Part 2)
Liu Feng looked away. He had no problem taking care of those who were at the top, who were the true reason that the Hong family was so.
But dealing heartlessly with the kids and the women? That was not what he wanted, and he just didn't want to get involved in that.
He touched the treasury door, which rippled with runes all over it.
Obviously, it needed a key to open. The Hong family would definitely have its precautions even against people within the Hong family, so it would have to guard the treasury, which was the lifeblood of the entire family.
But since these three young men came all the way here with the help of thousands of other family members becoming the bait, it was obvious who the key was with.
"This should be it." Cai Guo took out a jade token from one of the bodies and handed it to Liu Feng.
"I wonder, just how sure was Hong Qiu of his loss that he was willing to let go of the treasury key and give it to one of the younger generation to handle? He really did plan for everything." Liu Feng thought out loud as he put the key in front of the door, injecting a little Qi into it.
Immediately, the door's runes started lighting up, and it clicked.
The door creaked open, revealing a golden shimmer beyond.
They passed through the circular entrance to the treasury, as huge as the door itself was. As they did, they first laid their eyes upon the mortal richness of the Hong family.
But this was nothing that concerned Liu Feng. He planned to go to the Ancient Realm. Mortal currency was going to be of no help to him.
"This is all the Cai family's, family head. I have no use for it, but I trust that you will find some good use of all of this gold and coin." Liu Feng said as he continued walking deeper into the treasury.
It stretched as far as his divine sense did, and his divine sense stretched a far mile.
Looking around, on one side, there were mountains of spirit stones. Low grade, of course. And combined, they increased the Qi density of this place considerably. It was probably the second best cultivation spot of the entire Hong family, only lesser than Hong Qiu's cultivation room.
The ceiling of the treasury was surprisingly tall, to allow for these mountains to form an maintain their height. At fifty feet tall, it was a surprising feat to achieve underground.
And then, on another side, spirit herbs that captivated Liu Feng.
After his trip to the sealed world, he did not need any spirit herbs. But looking at the Hong family's foundations, he knew that they had to have one or two good herbs that could help him. Maybe not now, but at least later.
If he did get to the eight layer of the Soul Evolution Stage, then he would have one more minor realm of cultivation from the system that he could use for the Soul Transformation stage.
As he scanned every herb that was neatly arranged in boxes, his eyes of expectation quickly dimmed down. Sure, many of these herbs were useful to Soul Evolution Stage experts, but they were not exactly useful to high stage Soul Evolution Stage experts.
But there was a single herb that caught his eye.
"The Six Souls Phoenix Grass. If only they let it grow a little more, it would be helpful even to those in the Soul Transformation Stage." Liu Feng sighed.
Ever since his alchemy advanced to the Soul Evolution stage in the sealed world, he was able to understand what herbs of the Soul Transformation Stage meant as well.
He pocketed that as well, and kept walking.
The further he walked, the more ecstatic Cai Guo got. With each treasure that Liu Feng left uninterested, the Cai family gained one more.
Already, they became the richest family in all of Tiandu because of swallowing the billions upon billions of spirit and gold coins.
The low grade spirit stones were also probably going to be left for the Cai family, while so many precious herbs, which were more valuable than everything before combined, were also left alone.
That could only mean that Liu Feng was only going to take the best treasures that would help him. For someone like the Cai family though, quantity depended over quality, with so many members to support.
When the duo stopped in front of the weapons stack, with so many weapons right here, Liu Feng stopped.
"I guess that the Imperial Weapon of the Hong family has already been used up? By Hong Jimin all that time ago?" he asked.
"The Hong family is strong enough to have another imperial weapon, but I highly doubt it is a sword or a spear, Young Noble." Cai Guo said.
Scanning the pile of treasures, there was not a single one above the Heaven grade.
It was obvious that even if there was an Imperial Grade weapon, it was not here.
"This is also for the Cai family. It appears that the Cai family is the true victor of today. I don't see much in the Hong family's treasury that interests me, even though I expected to see so much." Liu Feng sighed with disappointment.
"Do not worry, Young Noble. Although the Cai family has profited, as a family with deep roots just like that of the Hong family, I can promise you that what lies here is just the tip of the iceberg. I am sure that the good stuff will only lie inside." Cai Guo smiled.
