    Since he was a Foundation Establishment expert, Zhang Yu was sure to have even more treasure…. Lin Xuan found quite a bit of treasure within that storage belt. The first thing he found was 20 low-grade spirit stones, which to him was a huge amount.


    Then, he found 10 more talismans, and surprisingly, there were even two mid-grade talismans. There were also the pills, as well as one top-grade spirit stone, which made the always calm Lin Xuan’s eyes fill with surprise. Even to a Foundation Establishment expert, top-grade spirit stones were rare.


    After obtaining Zhou Yan and Zhang Yu’s treasures, Lin Xuan’s wealth can be said to rival that of any Foundation Establishment expert in the valley.


    In the storage belt, he also found something else, which appeared as a small vest. It was woven out of some unknown material, but its defense was iparable. Seeing this defensive treasure, Lin Xuan immediately put it on.


    After doing all this, Lin Xuan sat cross-legged and began to inspect his physical condition. Inparison to the contents of the belt and bracelet, the real treasure was the ebony box containing the shell. Lin Xuan however, did not know what it effect was, but to make Zhou Yan kill her own master, the value was obvious.


    The memories from yesterday were still fresh, so he clearly remembered that the blue lights had gone inside his body. After which the shell had withered away, those blue lights were the key to cracking the mystery.


    Lin Xuan, after looking over his veins and heart, found no problem, so he decided to handle this like a puzzle, and began to n. Firstly, he decided to determine whether the blue lights were harmful or beneficial, so after deciding his course of action, Lin Xuan began to slowly examine his body.


    As he did this, he found that there are no obvious changes in his body, so he sent his Spiritual Sense into his Dantian and his meridians to examine the passageways. It was in his Dantian that he saw the change……


    After looking into his Dantian, he finally found those blue lights again revolving slowly like stars in the center of his Dantian, looking the same as they did when they first came out of the shell.


    This was somewhat unexpected, but not unreasonable. So Lin Xuan’s not surprised and quickly began to closely examine the blue lights. But even after examining them for a long time, he still found no changes.


    Unable to crack the mystery of the lights, Lin Xuan hesitated a little, then decides to try gathering a tiny bit of spiritual power into his Dantian, and carefully control it to touch one of the blue lights.


    Of course, before doing so, he has made various ns to prepare for anything that may go wrong. But there was no effect and the thin thread of spiritual power went right through the blue light.


    How can this be?


    Things didn’t go as he had nned, but Lin Xuan was not a rash person, and he came to the conclusion that the use of these blue lights is not something he can figure out right away and will need time to understand.


    Most young people would be impetuous, but Lin Xuan inparison to the others of his age appears to be very mature, and somewhat experienced.


    After failing in his first attempt, Lin Xuan decided to try againter. After resting for a bit, he went to eat food, his first meal since the day before.


    After his short breach, he once again started to research those blue lights, trying everything he can think of to try and get a reaction out of those lights. However the secrets to those lights were not easily found and even after working from morning until it was dark out, he still has made no progress.


    Lying in bed, Lin Xuan carefully went over all the things he had tried and after a while, he decided that it will take even more time than expected to figure out the secret behind those lights.


    Over the next few days, Lin Xuan resumed his normal life: cultivating every day. He didn’t want to draw attention but was secretly always studying the blue lights.


    Other than checking his meridian and Dantian, Lin Xuan also carefully took note of his body condition in case that there are any changes over time due to the lights. But he was disappointed as there was no change as usual, and even his cultivation speed was still as slow as ever. Lin Xuan eventually started to think that the lights were much like himself and had no ability.


    However, Lin Xuan did not truly give up, as these blue lights were definitely a rare treasure. He knew that he justcked the understanding to use them, so continued his slow research.


    Eventually, rumors started to float around Whirlwind Cloud Valley that Zhang Yu and Zhou Yan were missing, and since Zhou Yan was one of the top three Spirit Condensation disciples, her disappearance gathered a lot of attention. As for Zhang Yu, who was a mid-stage Foundation Establishment expert, he couldn’t be called one of the pirs of the school, but he was still one of the important elders. His disappearance with no clear reason at all was a worrying matter to the school.


    Under the orders of the Sect Master Yun He, many Foundation Establishment and Spirit Condensation disciples were sent out to try to figure out what happened to those two.


    However, after seeing the response of the sect, Lin Xuan was not worried, and for several days he acted as if none of this concerned him. But he was quietly paying close attention to the matter, as it was obvious from the leader’s response that he cared about the life and death of Zhang Yu and Zhou Yan, and mentioned nothing of the shell. The fact that Zhou Yan had dared to kill her master to obtain that treasure proved to him that they had not been sent by the sect to retrieve the treasure, and they had gone out in secret to obtain it.


    After confirming his suspicions, Lin Xuan rxed greatly, because as long as Whirlwind Cloud Valley cannot trace the whereabouts of the Shell Treasure, he had nothing to worry about. As for the corpses, Lin Xuan did not believe that anyone could find them, and even if someone were to find them, no one would ever suspect that a disciple with no Spiritual Roots could kill them.
