Chapter 61 Accepting Everything
While waiting in the room, Qin Fengqing was not idle.
Instead, he carefully studied the map of the royal city.
The Royal City Lord's Mansion is also located in the center of the entire Royal City, and is not much different from other underground Royal Cities.
Qin Fengqing still planned to use the most primitive method: digging a hole.
The roots of the guardian demonic plant of Demon Lotus City are not as developed as those of other demonic plants. Most of its root system is distributed in the royal city's mines, since the royal city's mines are of utmost importance.
At this moment, the defenses of the Demon Lotus City Lord's Mansion are at their weakest. One of the two eighth-rank Venerables left behind has to preside over the opening of the Fountain of Life, and the other has to sit on the city wall to oversee the situation.
The same applies to the seventh-rank commander who remains behind; he must also go to the city wall to take charge, otherwise, it would be difficult to deter other cities or human warriors with just an eighth-rank Venerable.
Therefore, at this moment, the city lord's mansion is only patrolled by a few sixth-rank generals at most.
The city lord of Demon Lotus City would never have imagined that a human martial artist would be so audacious as to sneak into the city lord's mansion to steal things even while the royal city was under martial law.
As for why Qin Fengqing didn't do what he did last time and delve deep into the core area of the mine to steal the essence of life...
Of course, they didn't want to die. There were already two ninth-grade martial artists at the mine, not to mention the large number of seventh and eighth-grade underground warriors.
A ninth-rank martial artist's perception is unmatched by anyone else. If Qin Fengqing were to collect even a tiny bit of life essence, he would probably be detected immediately.
After waiting for a while, Qin Fengqing estimated that it was about time, and then started digging a hole from under the bed.
He took out the Phoenix Green Blade directly from the storage space. With the quality of the Phoenix Green Blade, digging a hole would be very quick.
While digging the hole, they put all the excavated soil into the storage space.
They quickly arrived at a depth of 100 meters underground. This distance would be difficult for even ordinary high-level martial artists to detect, since no good person would use their spiritual power to probe underground from time to time.
Next, Qin Fengqing dug directly towards the direction of the city lord's mansion.
Qin Fengqing maintained a state of external mental energy throughout. Although the demon lotus did not have that many roots, she still had to be careful.
When they dug close to the city lord's mansion, they found many more roots growing around it.
Qin Fengqing carefully avoided all the roots, which was clearly the Demon Lotus's protection of the city lord's mansion's underground.
However, the Demon Lotus is probably focused entirely on maintaining the Fountain of Life right now, and wouldn't care about any disturbances underground.
Moreover, Qin Fengqing, having activated the energy barrier, was now like a dead object, and had perfectly avoided all the roots.
Qin Fengqing quickly dug into the area of the City Lord's Mansion.
Qin Fengqing took out the map of the royal city from her storage space and checked her current location. She was not far from the city lord's warehouse.
Qin Fengqing dug diagonally upwards, and soon dug a long distance upwards.
The next second, Feng Qingdao collided with the hard floor.
"Clang!"
It made a crisp sound.
At that moment, two underground martial artists were on duty outside the warehouse. One of them seemed to have heard something and asked the other, "Did you hear any strange noises?"
Another underground warrior yawned and said casually, "You must have misheard. How could there be any noise?"
This is the royal city. What reckless fool would dare to sneak in? Every person has an aura. Even if they can hide it from the two of us, how could they possibly hide it from Lord Shenlian?
Seeing his companion say this, the cave warrior didn't say anything more.
Qin Fengqing knew that they had reached the surface. Qin Fengqing's spiritual power spread outward from the ground and sensed that there were no other underground warriors around.
He carefully separated the top floorboard from the others through the gaps in the bluestone floor and put it directly into the storage space.
Qin Fengqing leaped into the air, landing firmly on the ground without making a sound.
Qin Fengqing looked around and saw 10 rows of shelves, each shelf with three tiers, and each tier had three large boxes on it.
Upon opening the box, one finds a whole box of high-purity cultivation energy stones, the highest quality kind.
It must be the kind of thing that is periodically mined from the vein and given as a reward to subordinates.
Qin Fengqing didn't stand on ceremony and immediately opened her storage space, sending box after box into it.
After collecting all the energy stones, they continued to venture deeper inside.
The cultivation energy stones placed on the outermost edge were just an appetizer. In the middle of the warehouse, rows of boxes made of energy stones were placed on the shelves.
Qin Fengqing picked one up and opened it, revealing a bunch of fruits the size of grapes.
"This is... the Hundred-Refining Fruit!"
The boxes were full of herbs useful for cultivation, as well as fruits like the Hundred-Refining Fruit, which were extremely effective for fourth- or fifth-grade martial artists. Qin Fengqing put all the boxes into his storage space and roughly estimated that there were nearly forty boxes in total.
Upon reaching the deepest part of the warehouse, one finds surprisingly little of anything, with only a few energy stones scattered around.
Qin Fengqing didn't let these energy stones go either; with a wave of his hand, all the energy stones disappeared.
Something unusual must be going on. Qin Fengqing reached out and touched the wall, and in a very hidden corner, he found a wall that had a slight color difference from the other walls.
Qin Fengqing stretched out her finger and tapped it lightly.
"Knock knock!"
A hollow, muffled sound came from inside the walls.
A hint of joy flashed in Qin Fengqing's eyes. There was a secret room!
Qin Fengqing carefully felt around the wall and suddenly touched an extremely tiny bump. Qin Fengqing pressed down with her finger.
The next moment, the door, which had blended seamlessly with the surrounding walls, suddenly sank inwards and then slid to the right, revealing a secret room that was only twenty square meters in size.
In the center of the secret chamber, a stone platform with a diameter of about three meters was built.
There weren't many items on the stone platform: a bottle about the height of a person and half a meter wide, made of high-purity energy stones, and eight boxes also made of high-purity energy stones.
Qin Fengqing didn't even need to think that the bottle must contain life essence, because only life essence needs to be stored in this kind of container.
I stepped forward and opened the lid, and sure enough, it was a large bottle full of life essence.
Qin Fengqing weighed it in her hand and estimated that the bottle weighed at least 200 kg. The thought flashed through her mind, and the bottle disappeared instantly, going directly into her storage space.
After storing the life essence in his storage space, Qin Fengqing turned his gaze to the eight boxes on the stone platform.
The eight boxes were arranged in a 4-3-1 pattern, clearly indicating that they were divided into three levels.
The outermost boxes are four placed together, while the middle boxes are three.
The innermost box is the most exquisitely crafted.
