I originally thought that there would be mountains of treasures in the treasure house, countless yuan stones, various elixirs and the like. After all, this is the treasure house so treasured by the Lord of Demons.
But at this time, everything in front of me was desolate. Various cabinets and shelves were densely packed, but the cabinets and shelves were all empty, with only some scattered supplies stored in some corners.
Everyone suddenly had a ridiculous feeling, as if the rats would starve to death if they were locked up here.
Although Zu An knew that the entire demon world was retreating to this underground city, resources must be in short supply, but he never expected that it would be so serious.
However, he quickly calmed down and said quickly: "Everyone acts independently and collects all kinds of formations, medicines, martial arts books and other useful things. Don't make rubbings now."
The original plan was to sneak in unnoticed and make rubbings of relevant classics, but now that the Demon Lord has been alerted, he definitely doesn't have that much time, so he simply packs it up and takes it away.
The girls also knew that time was tight, so they spread out to check everywhere. Even the injured Jiang Luofu forced himself to help.
Xie Daoyun rushed towards the formation area, Ji Xiaoxi went to check various medicinal herbs books, and the rest searched other places in the warehouse.
Zu An came to the skill area. He wanted to take the opportunity to see the skills practiced in the demon world. It would be better if he could discover the various skills that the demon lord is good at.
Compared to the materials area that you just entered, the Kung Fu books area has a richer collection of books. Pieces of jade slips are displayed on the bookshelves, emitting various glimmers of light, obviously representing different elemental attributes.
Zu An quickly flipped through the jade slips. With his current level of cultivation and knowledge, he could know the general situation of this technique at a glance.
It didn't take long for him to show a look of disappointment. These techniques contained many powerful skills, but in terms of level, they were still far inferior to the various secret scriptures he had learned before.
What's more important is that the exercises recorded in these jade slips are suitable for practice by all races of monsters and monsters. They are often very suitable for the blood, strength and body structure of each race. If humans in the world of cultivation are forced to practice them, they may easily become possessed by demons.
, if severe, the body will explode and die.
He secretly exclaimed that it was a pity, so he could only put these skills aside and continue searching to see if there were any other gains.
Not long after, he suddenly came to a wall. The wall was recessed, and there was a small bookshelf inside. There was a jade slip on the bookshelf.
Obviously this jade slip is quite extraordinary, because there is a transparent yellow film in front of the bookshelf that is flowing with brilliance.
Obviously this is a protective formation to prevent outsiders from coming into contact with the jade slips inside.
You must know that the Yuan Stone resources in this treasure house are now in short supply to such an extent. Other martial arts books have not set up formation protection to avoid the consumption of Yuan Stone. This jade slip is such an exception, which is obviously very important.
With Zu An's current knowledge of formations, he quickly figured out the origin of this formation. He took out the formation disk and quickly danced with his fingers, and soon formation flags were planted all around the wall.
The yellow defensive film gradually changed color, and soon turned green, and finally the formation dissipated.
Zu An breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, this defensive formation was quite advanced. If it were fully activated, he might not be able to open it even with his ability.
I think it's because the dungeon is lacking resources and Yuan Stone is in short supply. In order to save Yuan Stone, only the most basic defensive function of this formation is enabled.
Of course, even the most basic formations cannot be easily solved by most formation masters. Zu An originally studied the "Baopu Sutra" and had profound knowledge of formations. He also learned Salamei before.
The "Secret of Space Transformation" there, the formation skills have reached a higher level, so it can be solved in such a short time.
Zu An took out the jade slip and saw a series of demonic words appearing on it - "Secret Technique of Resurrection".
Seeing the name of this secret technique, Zu An couldn't help but condense his expression. Is there really a resurrection technique in this world?
Isn't the Lord of Demons immortal?
He did not dare to neglect at all and hurriedly looked it up.
After a while, he gradually breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that this was not the infinite resurrection technique as he had imagined, but a very costly technique.
In the late period when various powerful monsters invaded the world of cultivation, Zu An killed them. None of them were afraid. On the contrary, he mocked them and said that they were unkillable. The Lord of the monsters used a secret technique on them, and they were quickly resurrected after returning.
, will come back again for revenge.
Fortunately, Zu An became the Lord of the Netherworld at that time and directly restrained their souls, causing them to sink into the Abi Hell.
The secret technique contained in this jade slip is the secret technique on their bodies.
Intercept a trace of the target's soul and blood essence, and refine a doll that is connected to its life, and then put the doll into a special blood pool. The power of the blood essence in the blood pool will be transformed by the trace of soul-split jade essence
Based on blood, a new body grows, exactly like the target.
Then the target's soul is extracted using secret techniques and put into a new body. The new body then possesses all the abilities and memories of the original target.
To a certain extent, this new body is like a clone of the original target, no different from the original body.
The main body sleeps in a special place in the demon palace. Once the clone dies elsewhere, the soul will return to the main body according to the preset coordinate guidance, thus completing the resurrection ceremony.
Of course, this is not without its shortcomings. After all, the clone consumes the soul and blood essence. After resurrection, the vitality of the main body will be severely damaged, and it will take a long time to fully recover.
Of course, this loss is nothing compared to completely dying in another world.
The reason for this design is also because too many powerful demons died in the world of cultivation at the beginning, but the main task of the demons was not completed, and the remaining demons were reluctant to go back one by one. After all, they had learned from the past, and they in the world of cultivation
His strength will be weakened and downgraded by the will of the world. It would be too uncomfortable to die there.
So the Lord of Demons came up with this method, and after learning that it could save one more life, the demons agreed.
Zu An thought that this secret technique was very magical and prepared to put it away for future research.
Suddenly his eyes fell on the last line recorded in the secret technique, and his expression changed instantly.
It is recorded in the secret technique that if after the death of the avatar, the soul does not return within the specified time due to some special reasons, the body stored in the palace will quickly decay. After all, there are too many in the world.
Powerful beings have various magical abilities to deal with souls. Of course, the demon lord did not tell the demons about this risk.
Zu An's eyes fell on the words "The body will decay quickly" at this time, and all the hairs on his body stood up.
Donal's soul has completely dissipated in the world of practice, so his body is obviously completely rotten now.
The Lord of Demons naturally knew all this, so he knew from the beginning that Donal was completely dead.
And you knew I was fake from the beginning!
But after he learned that I came to this world, he didn't show anything strange from beginning to end!
He was covered in cold sweat and thought of too many possibilities in an instant.
