Faced with such a scene, both Nanlong Hou and others as well as cultivators such as Wang Tiangu were extremely delighted.

However, they are too cunning to do anything foolish that would put themselves in danger.

Therefore, everyone tried their best to suppress their inner ecstasy, walked into the attic carefully, and began to examine the precious treasures displayed on the wooden shelves one by one.

The wooden shelves were carefully arranged into three rows and placed in the center of the first floor of the attic, clearly displayed in front of people.

Browsing the first column, you will see a dazzling array of ancient treasures and magic weapons, with a total of as many as sixteen pieces.

The second column displays rare resources in various shapes and colors, including fist-sized steel materials and strange stones that are as bright red and crystal as gems.

However, the third column contained fewer items, consisting of only a few exquisite small bottles several inches square.

Obviously, these small bottles should contain various kinds of elixirs.

Chen Yun looked at these treasures indifferently, with a calm expression, making it difficult to see the true emotional fluctuations in his heart.

Although the other guests around remained calm on the surface and no one dared to touch these precious treasures rashly, their eyes had already begun to wander among these treasures, trying to identify their functions and values.

In order to gain an advantageous position in the subsequent division.

After a short pause, Nanlong Hou inspected these treasures one by one on behalf of everyone, and others also started friendly discussions to explore the origins and possible uses of these treasures.

As to whether they have already begun to figure out how to use these treasures deep in their hearts, perhaps only they themselves can tell.

At this time, Chen Yun began to look around, his eyes fell on other corners besides the shelves. Except for a cushion and a pot of emerald green grass placed in the attic window, there were no other items.

Chen Yun's heart moved, and he was about to take a step towards that area. Suddenly, the figure of the old man in white shirt flashed and arrived at the place where the cushion was.

With a slight wave of his hand, he took the cushion into his palm and examined it again and again.

Chen Yun frowned slightly, then walked to the grass by the window, observed it carefully for a moment, and muttered silently in his heart:

"Yin Ning Grass, although this herb is not common, it is an excellent medicine for refining Yin-Cold elixir, which can increase the efficacy of the elixir by one third."

"Yin Ning Grass is different from other spiritual herbs. Only when it grows to a hundred years old, the Yin-cold medicinal properties it contains are the strongest. For Chen Yun who holds the little green bottle, it is just right."

Just as Chen Yun was thinking to himself, several voices called out from a distance:
"Fellow Daoists, please come here quickly. We first need to distribute the treasures on this floor reasonably, and then go to the second floor together to explore for more treasures."

Upon hearing the news, Chen Yun withdrew his gaze, turned around and left, walking in the direction of the calling voice.

"After counting, we now have six ancient treasures and ten magic weapons. The items are divided into eight categories according to their value. The items you covet must be ancient treasures without a doubt, because they can still exert their power without the need for sacrifice and refinement."

"However, this batch of magic weapons are not ordinary items. They are all things left behind by Master Qiongkun after he killed powerful enemies. How can their powerful power be ignored? Even if they are only at the seventh level of effectiveness and need to be refined before they can be used, their value is immeasurable. Therefore, whether to take ancient treasures or magic weapons is entirely up to you fellow Taoists to decide."

Nanlong Hou had already gathered all the precious items on a shelf and spoke to everyone present with a cold expression.

"I am already getting old, and I really don't have the time to spend too much time carefully refining magic weapons. Now I only need an ancient treasure to meet my needs!"

The old woman calmly stepped forward and declared in a rather arrogant tone.

However, when these words were spoken, the others seemed calm on the surface, but deep down they were secretly smiling with contempt.

At this moment, Wang Tiangu suddenly cast a meaningful look at Nanlong Hou and asked.

"Why don't Fellow Daoist Nanlong and Fellow Daoist Yun choose treasures first? Perhaps there is no item you need in the attic on the second floor."

Upon hearing this, Nanlong Hou's face suddenly changed color, but he quickly returned to his serious expression and responded coldly.

"Brother Wang, what exactly do you mean by this?"

Upon hearing the news, the old man in white also stared at Wang Tiangu with an unhappy expression.

"Actually, there is nothing special about it. I just think that if you two don't seize the opportunity to make a choice now, you may miss the chance." Wang Tiangu ignored it and replied with a smile.

"Humph! There is nothing here that is worthy of me and Fellow Daoist Yun's priority selection. As for whether Fellow Daoist Chen is willing to use this right, it all depends on his personal will."

Nanlong Hou responded with a cold expression, as if his previous remarks made them dissatisfied.

"I don't intend to exercise this right at the moment. I'll make a decision after we enter the second floor." Chen Yun stroked his beard and said casually.

"In that case, we will share these treasures. For those who desire to obtain ancient treasures, they must voluntarily give up the right to choose the following magic weapons. What do you think, fellow Taoists?"

Wang Tiangu suggested bluntly.

"This is a very fair law. I agree with it."

"Let's do it accordingly!"

The others also felt that this move was fair and reasonable and expressed their approval.

Naturally, Chen Yun would not be interested in those magic weapons. In the end, only the old man in white and the cultivator named You gave up the ancient treasures. Instead, they chose two items they liked and took their respective portions of materials and elixirs.

As for the ancient treasures, Chen Yun and others acted at the same time and each got one.

What Chen Yun obtained was an ancient treasure shaped like a bamboo tube. Its specific power and magical powers are still unknown.

But he didn't care about it at all. He put the thing directly into his pocket and kept it safely together with his own materials and pills.

After Chen Yun and others had finished selecting their magic weapons, the items in the attic on the first floor had basically been distributed.

As for the cushion, Chen Yun noticed that it had already been casually thrown on the ground by the old man in white shirt and no longer paid any attention to it.

Obviously this item is not a rare treasure!
As for the Yin Ning Grass, several people came forward and examined it carefully for a moment. After confirming its origin, naturally no one was interested anymore.

Seeing the scene before him, Chen Yun couldn't help but smile bitterly.

It seems that everyone present is not ignorant. These Nascent Soul stage warriors will conduct a detailed inspection of every item in the attic.

As we all know, in addition to the precious treasures that appear on the surface, this place is very likely to hide many undiscovered secrets.

Although many Nascent Soul cultivators conducted a thorough search, they did not find any unexpected gains, so they decided to stop there and turn to explore the second level.

However, when they stepped into the second floor, they found that in this space, Chen Yun, like everyone else, was shocked by the scene before him. The first thing that caught his eye was a strong scent of sandalwood. Looking up, he could see a shrine placed in the corner of the stairs.

In the shrine is a golden statue of a one-horned demon god with three heads and six arms, whose face looks ferocious and lifelike.

What is even more eye-catching is that in front of the shrine, there is a small fiery red tripod, with wisps of white smoke rising from the tripod, and it is these smoke that emit a rich sandalwood scent.

What was surprising was that this cultivator named Master Cangkun actually worshipped the demon god, which undoubtedly shocked Nanlong Hou and others.

However, after Chen Yun carefully observed the three-headed, six-armed statue, he found that it was almost exactly the same as the monster depicted in the Brahma film, with its eyes wide open and its six arms raised upwards at the same time.

He didn't have time to think about it, so he moved his eyes away from the shrine opposite and quickly looked around other corners of the second floor.

He found that a few feet away from the left side of the shrine, there was a seemingly ordinary desk and a wooden chair, and the desk was filled with inkstones, brushes, bamboo slips and other items.

On the other side of the shrine is a jade bed covered with blue gauze. Even from a distance, one can still feel the coldness it exudes. It is obviously carved from some kind of cold jade.

At one end of the jade bed, three jade boxes of different sizes are placed side by side, which looks particularly eye-catching.

From this we can see that the second floor is actually the residence of Master Cangkun.

At this moment, the old man in white suddenly appeared beside the cold jade bed and reached out to take one of the jade boxes.

"Please wait!"

As the voice rang out, another figure came to the side of the jade bed, and a black light shot out casually, heading straight for the back of the old man's hand.

"What is your intention? Do you want to compete with me?"

The old man surnamed Yun retracted his wrist and successfully avoided the sudden attack, but due to shock and anger, he widened his eyes and stared at the other party fiercely and asked.

It turned out that the person who tried to stop it was none other than Wang Tiangu with fluttering sleeves.

"Brother Yun, why are you so anxious? I just want to confirm whether you are only interested in the items in the box and would like to give up the opportunity to choose other items."

Wang Tiangu replied calmly.

"As for the items in the box, I will naturally check them out before making a decision. If they are worthless, would I still choose them?"

The old man surnamed Yun gradually regained his composure, but still stared at Wang Tiangu and questioned him mercilessly.

"According to my memory, we have promised you two Taoist friends that you can choose two treasures first, and the rest will be distributed later. However, do you think that after choosing these three jade boxes, the remaining items here will be enough for us to share equally?"

Wang Tiangu did not show any fear. Instead, he glanced at the three lonely jade boxes on the jade bed and spoke in a calm tone.

"Have you made up your mind, sir, or do you intend to change your mind?"

Nanlong Hou took a few steps forward and stood side by side with the old man. His eyes swept across Wang Tiangu, and a slightly weird expression appeared on his face.

"Wang has never thought of breaking his oath. It's just that the number of treasures in this second-level space is indeed limited. Moreover, this jade box cannot be peeped through spiritual consciousness. Based on this, it is speculated that the items contained in it are most likely the most precious treasures in this building."

"Perhaps Master Cangkun's hidden skills and mysterious information about the Fallen Demon Valley are hidden in it. Under such circumstances, the two Taoist friends still insist on determining the value of the items in the box before making a choice. Isn't that a bit too harsh?"

Wang Tiangu smiled slightly and responded calmly.

"That's too harsh! I only remember that you fellow Taoists promised to let us two choose treasures first. As for the shortage of treasures, what does that have to do with us?"

The old man surnamed Yun's face darkened and he retorted coldly.

"You can't say that. You can still choose the treasures in the second level space first. However, there is no need to open this jade box for detailed identification."

"If you have any doubts about this, you can choose other items. For example, the cold jade bed in front of you is also a rare treasure. For cultivators who practice cold and yin attribute skills, its value is self-evident."

To everyone's surprise, the old woman offered help.

Hearing this, Nanlong Hou's face became even gloomier. He suddenly took a step forward, releasing a powerful aura, causing Wang Tiangu and the old woman to change their faces slightly and involuntarily take a half step back.

After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the gap between the middle and early stages is as vast as the difference between heaven and earth.

"If there are any other Daoists who think that what Daoist Wang said makes sense, please step forward. I believe that Brother Wang dared to step forward not only because of Madam Tai's support."

Nan Long narrowed his eyes, with a cold light flashing in his eyes like a knife or a sword. He glanced at the other people present and then spoke.

"Fellow Daoist Nanlong, there is no need to be angry! What Brother Wang said is not entirely unreasonable. Fellow Daoist can't monopolize all the benefits."

The black-faced monk was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke with a calm expression.

The cultivator named You frowned inadvertently, hesitated for a while, and then quietly stood behind Wang Tiangu.

It seemed that he had forgotten the previous unpleasantness with Wang Tiangu.

In an instant, except for Chen Yun, the monks in the attic were divided into two camps and confronted each other.

When Nanlong Hou and the old man surnamed Yun saw this scene, their faces changed drastically.

"It turns out that you have already reached a consensus in secret. I just don't know when you started planning this. You should not have had a chance to discuss it along the way."

Nanlong Hou quickly regained his composure and asked.

"It is nonsense to say that we have reached a consensus in secret! My fellow Taoists and I only had a private meeting before we set out to discuss several strategies for dealing with emergencies."

"The current situation is exactly what we expected. Therefore, we had no choice but to come into conflict with Fellow Daoist Nanlong."

Wang Tiangu said slowly and leisurely.

Nanlong Hou fell into silence with a frosty look on his face, then turned his gaze to Chen Yun.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, do you think so too?" he asked in a heavy tone.

At this moment, the two of them, who were in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm, were facing off against four cultivators in the early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. On the surface, the strength of both sides was equal.

Chen Yun, who had never expressed his position, now had a critical position. (End of this chapter)
