Chapter 160·The collection of wealth that rivals a country
Elder Wang took Dugu Bo to the carriage at the entrance of Qibao Glazed Sect. The carriage did not look luxurious, but the materials and workmanship were very solid. All the materials used were materials from the ten thousand year soul beast.
The wood of the frame comes from ten-thousand-year-old tree soul beasts, and the cloth used for the seat cushions is woven from the webs of spider-like soul beasts that have been around for more than a thousand years. It focuses on a low-key luxury and connotation. The cost price of a carriage alone is enough. Let a small soul master family go bankrupt.
Even the four horses responsible for pulling the cart are century-old soul beasts with dragon scales. Each dragon-scale horse has fine scales on its neck. At first glance, it looks like it has extremely pure dragon blood. Even if it is not at the level of a top-level soul beast, it is not much different.
The four dragon-scale horses swung their hooves under the control of the coachman. Even though they were pulling the heavy carriage, they were still moving faster than the average soul master at the soul master level.
After the carriage drove for about ten minutes, it stopped in front of a hall decorated with various gemstones. Elder Wang guided Dugu Bo and Chen Ming into it, where Ning Fengzhi and Jiangu Douluo were already waiting.
After seeing Dugu Bo, both Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were shocked. They felt that Dugu Bo's condition was almost twice as strong as it was a few years ago. Not only had his soul power increased, but his vitality had also increased significantly. Looking at the whole person, His appearance has recovered to the point where he looks like he has just entered his fifties or sixties.
Judging from his current state, it is probably not difficult for Dugu Bo to live for another hundred years.
Ning Fengzhi stepped forward and greeted Dugu Bo first, and then Chen Ming. At Ning Fengzhi's invitation, Dugubo and Chen Ming sat at the table and chatted with Ning Fengzhi for about twenty minutes.
It's just that during the conversation, Chen Ming was talking to Ning Fengzhi most of the time, and Dugu Bo was only responsible for nodding aside.
After all, for Dugu Bo, things like using his brain are really a bit too much.
After the polite conversation, things finally got down to business. Ning Fengzhi and Jiangu Douluo took Chen Ming and others out of the hall and walked towards the depths of the Qibao Glazed Sect. After passing several levels and obstacles, he entered a secret room hidden deep underground.
The door of the secret room is guarded by four soul masters at the soul saint level and eight soul masters at the soul emperor level. I don't know if it was because Ning Fengzhi had greeted them in advance, but when the group came here, the soul masters here were all very energetic, as if they were all ready to fight.
After identity authentication, the four soul saints took out their own keys and used the token in Ning Fengzhi's hand to open the door to the secret room. What came into view were hills made of ore.
What is more shocking is that even it has been placed here for who knows how many years. But when the door opened, a huge amount of soul power rushed out directly from the door. The spirituality contained in it almost made Chen Ming feel suffocated.
When you enter the door, you will see on the left is a hill made of large pieces of refined gold, and on the right is a hill made of mithril that has also been refined into standard cubes.
These two things are important materials for the main currencies of Douluo Continent, the gold soul coins and silver soul coins. One gram of fine gold combined with various metals can produce dozens of gold soul coins. Mithril is pretty much the same.
Chen Ming made a little estimate of these two gatekeeper mountains, and found that they were probably worth at least five billion gold soul coins, and the actual value was higher or higher. After Dugu Bo saw these two mountains, his mind went blank and he forgot to breathe for a moment.
Looking inside, there are a large number of various rare metals inside. Metals such as cold iron and burning iron are just the least valuable part of them. The most valuable ones are star pattern iron, deep sea immersed silver and the like. On the mainland, rare metals are generally measured in grams.
Things like gems can only be used as inconspicuous side dishes in this treasure house, and the worst-quality piece among them can be sold for several hundred gold soul coins in the outside world. If you find a skilled craftsman to carve it, it's not impossible to sell it for thousands of gold soul coins.
Whenever a bunch of gem mountains appear in the outside world, there will be certain fluctuations in the gem market across the continent.
If half of the gems in the treasure house were thrown away, the gem market in Douluo Continent would completely collapse.
Ning Fengzhi walked inside with Dugu Bo and Chen Ming, who were like country bumpkins. After walking through a lot of rare metals and expensive gems of various attributes, Chen Ming saw the truly precious things in this treasure house. Although it has crystallized in the passage of time, the keel bones and several dragon eggs still exude a touch of dragon power.
Like a plant, it is rooted in the ground, hovering on the stone pillars, breathing in the soul power in the air, and is slowly growing the magical metal at an extremely slow speed.
The broken spear tip embedded in the huge purple crystal containing the power of thunder still exudes a faint pressure even if it is not actively explored.
It was more than two meters long, with a texture like white jade, and half a huge ivory stained with red blood on the top. When you stare at the blood stained on it, you can feel the strong killing intent.
Even among this pile of magical gadgets, Chen Ming saw four half-bird-shaped jade stones in the corners.
Each of them is about as tall as a person. Although they look like ordinary exquisite sculptures, they perfectly contain rich vitality and soul power.
Even the bird-shaped jade stone with only half a section left for some unknown reason continued to radiate soul power outward from the fracture.
Chen Ming is still not sure about the first few, but the last few jade birds
This is obviously because the top soul beast Jade Bird has been completely transformed into jade due to its age reaching one hundred thousand years.
"."
"."
"The Qibao Glazed Sect's reputation for being as wealthy as any country is truly well-deserved."
Please...you...collect 6...9...books...!
Rich enough to rival the country?
If these things are brought out, let alone an enemy country, with the ability of the Qibao Glazed Sect, it is not impossible to build a smaller country besides Tiandou and Xingluo Empire.
Chen Ming finally understood why Wuhun Palace wanted to destroy the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect in the soul hunting operation, why the emperor of the Tiandou Empire went to befriend the previous masters of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, and why even Qian Renxue had to let Ning Fengzhi should be the emperor's master.
The collection of Qibao Glazed Sect can no longer be described simply by using money. After working as a porter on the mainland for many years, the collection of the Qibao Glazed Sect obviously contained things that a soul master should not have.
Although this is obviously just a warehouse for collecting gems and metal materials, it is not the real secret and forbidden place of Qibao Glazed Sect. But any one of these items thrown onto the continent outside would be enough to cause a bloody storm on the continent.
To put it bluntly, although the Jade Bird, a soul beast that will be completely transformed into jade after 100,000 years, is indeed very precious. But compared with those things, the Jade Bird seems to have no sense of existence.
Chen Ming clearly felt the feeling of divine power on the crystallized dragon bone, the broken spear, and the bloody half of the ivory.
Even though Chen Ming thought he had excellent concentration now, looking at Ning Fengzhi with a faint smile on his face, he still couldn't help but feel shocked in his heart.
