Chapter 1017: Waiting for Someone
"Perhaps there will be some scriptures, but I doubt that there will be any powerful treasures left. If the sect has already met its demise, then surely its most powerful treasures will have been taken out of the ancestral hall to ward off the enemy," Han Li said in a casual manner as he strode over to the water abode before pushing open its doors.
"Oh, that's a real pity then," Hu Xiaocheng said in a disappointed manner.
However, her expression then quickly lit up again as she continued, "Even so, scriptures can be just as valuable as treasures. If you can find a few top-tier cultivation arts here, then that'll still be a great haul."
The doors swung open with a loud creak, having been opened for the first time in countless years, revealing a long open-air area, and there was nothing in the courtyard aside from a rusty copper vat.
Han Li approached the vat to discover that there were some antiquated runes engraved onto its surface. The vat was half-filled with water, floating on top of which was a dark green lotus flower that was giving off strong water law power fluctuations.
"Wow, there's so much water-attribute spiritual qi here!" Hu Xiaocheng exclaimed.
She was only at the Nascent Soul Stage, so she wasn't very sensitive to law powers.
"Looks like there are still good things left here," Han Li remarked with a smile, and he casually swept a sleeve through the air, upon which the copper vat vanished into his Flower Branch domain.
On either side of the open-air area were two wide corridors that led to a large hall that appeared to be a conference hall, and the only things inside were some cushions that had already decomposed countless years ago.
Beyond this hall was a small courtyard that was much larger than the open-air area from before. The entire courtyard was paved with white stone blocks, giving it the appearance of a drill ground.
Beyond the drill ground was the final and most important building in the entire ancestral hall.
Han Li looked up to discover a plaque hanging above the entrance of the building, upon which were inscribed the words "a long history and a bright future".
