Chapter 1047 An unexpected gain
The most core but broken crystal block was taken away by Tang Lan.
This thing should be an energy core. Take it back and let some masters from the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy study it. Maybe there will be some unexpected discoveries.
The soul guides who can appear here are definitely not ordinary people.
Maybe it was left behind by some legendary ninth-level soul guide.
This will be of great help to Shrek Academy's research on soul guides.
"Did you hear the sound of water?"
When the surroundings gradually became quiet, Bell on the side suddenly spoke.
After his reminder, Tang Lan began to focus on his surroundings and soon heard the sound of gurgling water.
The three of them began to search following the sound of flowing water, and soon found an underground spring in a corner on the east side of the cave.
The three people were delighted by the gurgling pure groundwater that kept bubbling up.
The three of them didn't bring much water this time. With the underground spring in front of them, the water they had stored would be replenished again.
Tang Lan observed for a long time before speaking: "If I'm not mistaken, there is a huge underground lake underneath here."
"But this is not important anymore. Judging from the surrounding scene, that person should have fought a great battle with a powerful soul beast here."
"In the end, Dao Zhi's soul mentor died together with the soul beast."
"The humanoid skeleton in the corner of the soul beast's black oil is good evidence."
Tang Lan pointed to the other corner and began to explain.
Upon hearing this, Bell and Long Yao immediately went over to check. Soon Bell exclaimed, "There is a metal box left by that guy here. Look!"
Seeing this, Tang Lan also walked over. After the three of them studied it, they easily opened the black metal box.
This thing was found on the side of the human-shaped corpse, and it would never have been discovered if you hadn't looked closely.
The first thing the three saw when they opened it was a letter. After opening the yellowed letter, they looked at it carefully.
The owner of the corpse was named Gold, a powerful man from the Matt family in Qingbi City in the Sun and Moon Continent.
It was sixty years ago that this suicide note was left behind.
The above briefly describes his purpose of coming to the Sea of Death to seek opportunities and some of his experiences.
Finally, there are some remaining inheritances, some secret and rare copies of soul guide books, and a few dim soul guide devices.
Seeing this scene, Tang Lan and the other two looked at each other and sighed in their hearts.
Such a gifted man would never have expected to end up in this world, but as a soul master, if he came here to seek opportunities, he should be prepared to die here.
According to his account, he encountered a green-armored dragon crocodile here.
Although he became the final winner after a great battle, he was seriously injured and died here due to lack of supplies and pills.
His only wish is that someone who comes here in the future can bring his remains back to the Matt family.
As a reward, he will give the other party everything left here.
It has to be said that this is a very attractive reward. Everything left behind by a veteran ninth-rank soul master is not ordinary.
Although those soul guides have lost their power due to the long time, they can still be restored to their original state as long as they are properly repaired afterwards.
"How about it, are you willing to take his body back?"
"But I can't guarantee that the Matt family he mentioned still exists. After all, sixty years have passed. It is possible that they have already declined and disappeared in the soul world."
Tang Lan turned around and looked at Long Yao and Bei Er with a smile.
The soul guides here are indeed very good, but Tang Lan does not have the time to help him fulfill his last wish.
As the saying goes, a gentleman loves money but gets it in a proper way. If Long Yao and the other person are willing, Tang Lan will give the corpse and the metal box to them.
Unexpectedly, Long Yao shook her head and said, "My current identity is somewhat special. Qingbi City is in the northwest, and I don't have time to go there for the time being."
"Oh, I do have the time, but I don't know if I will suddenly lose my memory in the middle of the process."
Bell, who was standing by, became hesitant when he saw that Long Yao also expressed his helplessness.
After all, his current condition is somewhat special, and it is difficult to guarantee that the body can be sent back safely.
"Being able to help him has been the greatest thing we have done. I don't think he would blame us even if we failed to deliver it."
Tang Lan smiled and said to An Wei Beier.
"Well, well, I'll accept these things without hesitation! Hehe~~"
Although he felt it was a bit troublesome, he smiled happily when Bell's eyes focused on the metal box.
There are a total of four ninth-level soul guides here. If they can all be restored to their original appearance, their value will be no less than 15 million gold soul coins.
This is not a small amount of money. At least for him, it would take him ten years to save up so much.
Then, in front of the two of them, Bell personally made a small iron coffin for the corpse using some metal sheets.
After putting the corpse in, Bell reluctantly put the iron coffin into his storage ring.
After fetching water and disassembling the huge soul guide armor into parts, the three of them left here satisfied.
After leaving the underground cave, Tang Lan found huge rocks to cover the underground cave to prevent future generations from discovering it.
If I have the chance to come here again in the future, I might go down to get water.
Another thing is that Tang Lan felt that at the bottom of the cave, not only was there an underground lake, but there was also a high possibility that a powerful soul beast was living there.
Due to the lack of knowledge about the area below, and with Long Yao and Bei Er by his side, Tang Lan did not rashly go down to the spring to investigate the situation.
I'll come back here to investigate after I'm done with this.
After finishing all this, the three of them were busy until the afternoon.
When dusk gradually cast a faint golden light on the sea, satisfied smiles appeared on the faces of the three people.
Today's harvest was very satisfying for all three of them.
After a simple rest for one night, Tang Lan and the other two continued their journey the next day.
Through research on the Sea of Death, Tang Lan was able to see that they were getting closer and closer to where the Thousand-Faced Beast appeared.
It also means that the three people are leaving the outer area of the Sea of Death and entering the inner area of the Sea of Death.
The lowest level of soul beast cultivation here is 30,000 years old, and soul beasts between 50,000 and 80,000 years old can be seen at any time, and occasionally even 90,000-year-old soul beasts can be seen blocking the way.
But these guys were just delivering supplies to Tang Lan. They attacked him so many times along the way that Tang Lan had to change several storage rings.
The soul beast materials stored inside were piled up like a mountain, and they would only wait until Tang Ya and others returned to the Tang Sect to carefully count them.
The important ones will be kept for Huo Yuhao and others to refine soul guides and hidden weapons, while the unimportant ones will be thrown into pawn shops and auction houses.
