Incredible Sect Simulator

Fortunately, they observed other areas of the hall and found that there were no signs of a time loop in these places.

For example, after subduing the puppet guardians and Five Elements Spiritual Treasures, these two items did not appear again.

Each had obtained a Five Elements Spiritual Treasure, and more or less, smiles appeared on their faces.

Next, the five of them had a discussion and decided to proceed with the next stage of their journey.

Xu Dezhi summoned the map drawn earlier, and the group examined it, occasionally asking Xu Dezhi about nearby areas where there might be opportunities.

The investigative abilities displayed by the puppet mouse were very strong.

At this time, using this map to explore these ancient ruins was clearly the most efficient method.

Xu Dezhi, being kind-hearted and aware of the dangers hidden in these ruins, became even more conscious of this while controlling the puppet mouse to explore the surroundings.

Attempting to act alone to obtain the remaining treasures would clearly be impossible, and he might end up dying here first.

Moreover, he wanted to cooperate this time, and had nothing to hide, pointing out the nearest two blue zones.

"These two places, the one to the west is a beast fighting arena, although it’s ancient, some demon beasts still live inside. There are demon beast seeds, spirit beast eggs, and similar treasures there; see if anyone among you is interested in beast taming or those demon beasts."

Xu Dezhi elaborated.

"The area near the east is an alchemy room, where there might still be some ancient divine elixirs preserved. Though most may have lost their efficacy and cannot be consumed, some individual elixirs might have survived, which is hard to say clearly."

"Decide for yourselves where you’d like to go first."

Upon hearing Xu Dezhi’s description, Lu Ping and the others fell into deep thought.

One location is a beast fighting arena.

Another is an alchemy room.

Both places likely contain opportunities.

Lu Ping’s thoughts were first drawn to the beast fighting arena.

Such structures like beast fighting arenas are prevalent, whether in the Chu Kingdom, Lingxi State, or Qingli Sea.

Cultivators can sign up to fight and kill demon beasts to earn rewards and exchange for many cultivation resources.

This fighting custom has been passed down from Ancient Times.

After experiencing the attacks of the Black-Horned Silver Serpent and the Nine-Clawed Red Bright Eagle, Lu Ping speculated that these two demon beasts might have escaped from that beast fighting arena.

Similar circumstances apply to other lurking and breeding demon beasts throughout the ruins.

Regarding the danger in that beast fighting arena, it undoubtedly exists, and it’s uncertain what level of demon beasts one might encounter.

But the greater the danger, the greater the opportunity.

Especially powerful demon beasts are treasures in themselves.

The spirit beast eggs and cubs they produce, once tamed and spirit beast agreements are signed, can grow based on bloodline strength, at least reaching Golden Core Stage, or even Nascent Soul Stage.

Having such spirit beasts as pets or mountain gate guardians is truly tempting.

"With the Ten Thousand Spirits Map in your possession, perhaps you can try to tame those demon beasts."

The Void Celestial Sword Spirit was also interested in the arena and reminded Lu Ping not to forget about the Ten Thousand Spirits Map.

Lu Ping secretly smiled wryly, realizing he had indeed forgotten the map.

This Ten Thousand Spirits Map passed down from Void Celestial Extreme Saint, although not the true Supreme Treasure of the Ten Thousand Spirits Race, or the genuine Ten Thousand Spirits Map, contained various methods to tame creatures of heaven and earth.

Subduing and taming some demon beasts might not be a problem.

At that time, one simply has to compare the Ten Thousand Spirits Map to see if it records the methods for taming those particular demon beasts.

For Lu Ping, this truly was a fortuitous opportunity.

"Let’s not rush; let’s first observe their next actions."

Lu Ping replied to the Void Celestial Sword Spirit.

"We definitely must go to that beast fighting arena at some point, it’s just a matter of timing. We aren’t in a hurry for now."

Heading to the ancient beast fighting arena alone wouldn’t be wise.

As for the nearby alchemy room, Lu Ping had some interest in that as well.

Whether visiting one place first or the other, Lu Ping found both options feasible.

"Choosing between demon beasts and elixirs, from my perspective, elixirs are more appealing."

Liu Taixuan laughed heartily, glanced at Lu Ping, Jiuhua True Monarch, and the other three and said, "I might be a bit mundane, but I’d prefer going to the alchemy room first. What’s everyone’s opinion?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiuhua True Monarch spoke first: "If there are indeed some divine elixirs left in the alchemy room that can enhance Nascent Soul Stage cultivation, increasing our cultivation first before going to the beast fighting arena certainly seems ideal."

"Right now, we’re unclear about the condition of those elixirs and should try our luck first."

"I agree with Jiuhua Dao You’s suggestion."

Zhang Tianqun chimed in: "You’ve already witnessed the strength of those two demon beasts earlier. It’s uncertain if the arena may harbor beings even stronger. If a demon beast surpassing the Nascent Soul Stage appears, we won’t be able to match it even together."

"Hehehe, the dean’s concerns aren’t irrational; it’s just that I also am uncertain about the exact strength of the demon beasts there."

"Some little ones who just entered the beast fighting arena were swallowed entirely by unknown demon beasts, and I have no clear knowledge of the arena’s interior situation. We’ll have to personally investigate to find out."

Xu Dezhi smiled, then showed seriousness, "Everyone, think carefully. I suggest first visiting the alchemy room."

Out of the five, four already chose to proceed to the alchemy room first.

The remaining one was Lu Ping.

Seeing the four respond this way, Lu Ping didn’t need to say much.

"Then, following your decision, let’s go to the alchemy room first."

Lu Ping gave his answer.

The five reached a consensus and left the ancient hall, heading toward the eastern direction.

In just a moment, they arrived in front of a huge pavilion.

To ensure safety, none of the five dared to enter rashly, and they carefully investigated for a while, confirming no visible danger inside before cautiously entering.

What first caught their eye was a spacious indoor area, where numerous alchemy furnaces were neatly arranged.

Each of these alchemy furnaces stood nearly two zhang tall, deep black in color, silently standing there.

Even after many years without being moved or cleaned, there was no dust visible on the furnaces, making them appear very clean.

This place differed from external alchemy rooms, lacking a fiery atmosphere, showing no signs of life except for more than three thousand spirit grasses and spirit medicines, already decayed or reduced to ashes.

The five briefly browsed through the area.
