Mythical Cultivation

"Hurry up and take it! Take this resuscitation pill quickly and try to recover as quickly as possible. I have to go to the mysterious Bai Mansion tonight to find out what's going on, and I'll definitely need your help then!"

The leader gave a serious warning, his deep eyes revealing a hint of worry and determination.

"Thank you for your concern, Chief! I will definitely live up to your expectations, recover from my injuries as soon as possible, and help you complete this mission!"

The pale-faced boss took the pill with both hands, his eyes filled with gratitude. He then turned and walked towards his room, ready to take the Resurrection Pill immediately and begin his journey of healing.

After some discussion, everyone finally decided: the leader would go deep into the Bai Mansion alone to search for the whereabouts of the treasure; while the others would stay outside the Bai Mansion to provide support.

In this way, if the leader encounters an accident in the Bai Mansion or triggers a fierce battle, they will be able to detect it in time and immediately lead their men to attack from outside the Bai Mansion to create chaos.

In this way, not only can the enemy's attention be distracted, creating an opportunity for the leader to escape, but it is also possible to seize some valuable property or intelligence in the chaos.

Back at the Bai Mansion, Wu Mingzheng was leading his team to carry out the mission with full concentration, not daring to slack off at all, and always on guard against possible sudden attacks from enemies.

They held their weapons tightly and scanned the surroundings with sharp eyes, not missing any movement.

However, just as they were concentrating on being on guard, a dark shadow, like a ghost, silently leaped in from above the towering courtyard wall.

The figure was wearing a pitch-black nightgown and moved as swiftly as the wind, as if he could travel through the void. He avoided several patrolling teams with ease as if he were in an empty space.

After a while, he successfully sneaked into the inner courtyard of Bai Mansion from outside the mansion through the outer courtyard.

This mysterious uninvited guest was none other than the leader of the inn. He had sneaked into the Bai Mansion according to the map drawn by his brothers. Now, he had followed the route indicated by the map and successfully arrived at the inner courtyard.

After arriving at the inner courtyard, he first set his sights on Bai Junjie's study.

Outside the study door, two burly, serious-looking palace guards stood upright, diligently guarding the entrance. Unfortunately, despite their well-trained and capable skills, they were unable to stop this uninvited guest.

In an instant, two golden needles flashing with cold light suddenly appeared on the temples of the two guards on duty like lightning.

The speed was so astonishing that it left no time for anyone to react. Immediately afterwards, two muffled "thumps" were heard, and without warning, the two guards fell straight to the ground, dead on the spot.

Poor these two people, they were unable to see where the enemy was until they died, and lost their lives in such an unclear way.

Almost at the same time, a figure dressed in black landed at the door of the study like a light swallow.

The man in black cautiously reached out his hand and slowly pushed open the heavy door to the study. With a soft creak, the door slowly swung open, revealing a spacious and elegant study.

The man in black stepped lightly into the study, his footsteps as light and silent as a ghost. As soon as he entered the room, he immediately released a powerful spiritual sense, sweeping across the entire study like an invisible storm.

Wherever the divine consciousness goes, every book and every decoration will be revealed.

After a careful search, the man in black finally landed his gaze on a seemingly ordinary bookshelf. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile, as if he had sensed something.

He walked quickly to the bookshelf, reached out and gently pushed it. There was a slight sound of a mechanism turning, and the bookshelf slowly moved to the side, revealing a secret room hidden behind it.

The man in black walked into the secret room with a flash of excitement in his eyes. What he wanted might be hidden here.

The secret room was filled with all kinds of precious treasures, a dazzling array of items. However, as he examined them one by one, his expression gradually turned into disappointment.

Although there were indeed many good things here, including a rare treasure and two bottles of Soul-Nourishing Pills containing rich spiritual energy, there was no key item that he came here to find.

"Damn it! That thing is not here..." the man in black cursed in a low voice.

"It seems I can only look in the other two places. However, this Bai Junjie has collected quite a few treasures, even some precious weapons. Hehe, this precious weapon can be used to deal with him in the future. I wonder what kind of wonderful expression he will have when he sees his treasure fall into my hands?

As for these two bottles of Soul-Nourishing Pills, although they are no longer of any use to me, giving them back to my brothers would be a good reward."

Thinking of this, the man in black put the treasure and the Soul-Nourishing Pill into his pocket without hesitation, then turned and left the secret room.

However, when his eyes fell on the short sword-shaped treasure, the man in black couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart.

He understood instantly that since Bai Junjie could possess such a precious treasure and placed it casually in his mansion, it could be inferred that he must have other more powerful treasures in his hands.

Thinking of this, the man in black raised his assessment of Bai Junjie's true strength to a higher level. At the same time, he began to feel a little worried and uneasy about whether he could successfully take revenge.

The last time he attacked Bai Junjie, Bai Junjie didn't use any magic weapon. It seems that Bai Junjie was hiding quite deeply.

You know, this treasure is no ordinary thing! It is a rare treasure that can carry the power of the soul. Usually, only powerful cultivators who have reached the out-of-body realm are qualified to use it.

What about the man in black? Despite having reached the pinnacle of the Exorcist Realm, he had never possessed such a rare treasure. Now that he had the good fortune to obtain this treasure, it was truly an unexpected surprise.

After carefully putting away the three treasures including the dagger, the man in black quietly approached the library of the Bai Mansion according to the instructions on the map prepared in advance.

As far as he knew, there was an old man who was also in the realm of driving objects in charge of the library. His men were discovered last night because they were exploring the library, so he did not act rashly and break into the library.
