Chapter 1809: Chapter 1809: A Windfall

Seeing their expressions, Mu Hanyan understood that they all got her meaning, so she said no more and looked toward Chen Xuefeng.

"I saw nothing, nothing at all," Chen Xuefeng quickly turned his head away and said with a trembling voice.

Anyway, his life and death were entirely in Mu Hanyan’s hands, she could even feel the slightest defiance, so there was no need to make things difficult for him. This was the terrifying aspect of the Soul Death Contract. If Mu Hanyan didn’t actively dissolve the contract, he would be no different from a puppet.

"We should leave here first," Shen Yuhe said uneasily.

The secrets hidden in this place could easily bring about deadly peril, and she didn’t want to stay a moment longer.

Chen Xuefeng evidently understood this too, and as soon as he finished speaking, he quickly left with his backpack, silently swearing to himself that he’d stay as far away from this place as possible in the future, even if it meant dying, he’d never come closer than a step.

"No rush," Mu Hanyan took out the Heavenly Secret Mirror.

Besides recalling time, the Heavenly Secret Mirror also had the wonderful use of treasure seeking, taking advantage of the remaining Star Power that was still within it to give it a try.

Unsure whether this was the temple ruins wouldn’t matter, now that she knew, she wasn’t going to miss such an opportunity.

As for danger... one seeks wealth amidst peril, Lady Mu was long used to it.

The remaining Star Power in the Heavenly Mechanism Realm began to work, a seven-colored light column condensed in front of her, presenting a distorted and mysterious light and shadow, then quickly disappeared.

"Space Array!" Before Sikong Qinglan and Shen Yuhe could understand what was happening, Wen Gaoren joyfully cheered, quickly making a gesture.

Such a space array was extremely intricate, without knowing the exact position it was impossible to break, but Mu Hanyan’s Heavenly Secret Mirror already indicated the location, and this space, having existed for tens of thousands of years without any reinforcement, was on the brink of collapse. Wen Gaoren used just an hour to unlock the array.

A silver box nearly a meter long, and half a meter high and wide appeared before them, despite having endured an uncountable amount of time even Mu Hanyan couldn’t determine, with the protection of the space array, it remained free of any damage.

The silver box had sealing restrictions with energy fluctuations, but it wasn’t locked. Mu Hanyan guessed that the sealing restriction was probably to protect its contents from damage, she gently lifted the lid with the Cold Sky Sword. While guessing was guessing, cautiousness was still necessary.

"Relic Soul Beads, they are Relic Soul Beads!" As soon as the box was opened, colorful lights burst forth, and Wen Gaoren couldn’t help but cheer aloud.

"These are Relic Soul Beads!" Sikong Qinglan and Shen Yuhe were completely stunned.

Relic Soul Beads, similar to Beast Bone Relics of the Holy Continent, were condensed from Divine Sense rather than Essence Blood, differing from Beast Bone Relics that cannot be used directly to enhance cultivation but only for refining Magic Artifacts or Sword Casting. Relic Soul Beads could considerably enhance Divine Sense, containing the Power of Laws refined through Exotic Beasts, not only useful for refining artifacts but also directly boosting cultivation.

Relic Soul Beads were extremely rare, ordinary Priests never had the blessing of enjoying them. Even the Main Priest of the subordinate Twelve Divine Temples of the Life God Temple could only receive twelve Relic Soul Beads yearly from the Life God Temple, averaging one per month. The Dual Priests, Prayer Priest, and other Divine Position Priests below them received even less.

As for Huayu Temple, it hadn’t received any Relic Soul Beads for twenty years, hence Sikong Qinglan and Shen Yuhe hadn’t even seen one before.

Mu Hanyan and Ling Baobao’s eyes were already flashing with gold, they even forgot to cheer.

Judging by the box size, there must be eight thousand if not ten thousand Relic Soul Beads inside, a fortune, this time it’s real fortune!

Even if they hadn’t eaten pork, they had seen pigs run, although it was the first time Mu Hanyan and Sikong Qinglan and others saw Relic Soul Beads, they understood their value.

On the Divine Continent, the price of a single Relic Soul Bead could be sold for tens of thousands of patterned silver at the very least, but even Feng City Temple Chief Priest level priests could only receive twelve beads annually from the temple, who would lightly part with them? Thus, Relic Soul Beads often appeared in auction houses with prices far beyond that.

Those are referring to ordinary quality Relic Soul Beads, if of quality, selling for tens of thousands of patterned silver at black markets or auctions isn’t unheard of.

How much could this entire large box of Relic Soul Beads sell for? If one is worth ten thousand, ten would be a hundred thousand, a hundred would be a million, a thousand would be ten million, ten thousand would be a hundred million. Mu Hanyan calculated and only saw a pile of golden zeros flashing in her mind, dazzlingly dizzy.

After a while, the excited emotions of the crowd barely calmed down.

"Master Priest, what should we do with these Relic Soul Beads?" Sikong Qinglan asked in some confusion and unease.

Beside her, Shen Yuhe wore the same expression.

"What else to do, throw them away?" Mu Hanyan waved her hand, tossing the Relic Soul Beads into the Star Disk Space.

She understood why Sikong Qinglan and Shen Yuhe felt so bewildered and uneasy. A few months ago, they were so poor they couldn’t fill their stomachs. Suddenly seeing a large box of Relic Soul Beads, it was as if a beggar stumbled across a mountain of gold, unsure even how to use it, such a fortune could easily bring disaster, making them anxious day and night.

Lady Mu wasn’t burdened by such worries, to say the least, her previous wealth exceeded this by far, yet it didn’t cause her any unease, she still ate and slept soundly.

"I heard Relic Soul Beads greatly benefit cultivation, take these for yourselves, if it’s not enough ask me any time." Sister Mu generously handed out thousands of Relic Soul Beads to Sikong Qinglan and others, showing her usual lack of stinginess towards her own people.

"How could this be right?"

"These Relic Soul Beads were found by you, Master, it’s better for you to keep them, no need to consider us," several quickly declined.

"It’s not like I found them alone, without Master Wen discovering the Array Eye, I wouldn’t have located the Relic Soul Beads. You followed me; it can’t be a wasted trip, right? Finders are keepers, take them all," Lady Mu spoke magnanimously, it was just another act of her playboy’s habit.

"Though I found the Array Eye, just finding it wouldn’t have done anything, without the Master Priest’s intervention, I’d have never known where that Array Formation Space was. How about this, I’ll take ten for now and discuss further needs later," Wen Gaoren now somewhat understood Lady Mu’s temperament, seeing her insistence he knew it wouldn’t be right to refuse, and after some thought, he kept ten Relic Soul Beads and returned the rest.
