The Post Sky Tipping Era

Manager Qian saw Li Yi’s unwavering determination to purchase, then gritted his teeth and said: "To be honest, the shop only has two intact Dao Artifacts left. If the two of you wish to see them, you may follow me to the vault. Such treasures consume a massive amount of mana to handle, and I am no longer able to bring out those two Dao Artifacts."

"Then what are we waiting for? Lead the way quickly," Tu Daoist said.

"This way, please," Manager Qian hurriedly put away the Spirit Stones and then took advantage of the moment to inhale deeply a few times, restoring some of his mana, which he needed to unlock the vault.

Soon enough.

Li Yi and Tu Daoist followed Manager Qian to a vault located in the backyard.

Rather than calling it a vault, it was more like a black iron warehouse.

The iron warehouse was sealed tightly, its surface glimmering with runes.

"This is a low-grade Magic Artifact, inscribed with a Locking Spirit Array, continuously operating at the minimal energy consumption level. A remarkable refinement method indeed," Tu Daoist’s gaze flickered as he remarked: "For this iron warehouse to still be operational after so long in the End of Dharma era? It must have sealed a considerable amount of Spiritual Energy inside. No wonder Duo Bao Building still manages to preserve so many well-maintained Magic Artifacts. Another twenty Spirit Stones could possibly keep it working for another two hundred years."

"Daoist Tang is joking. It’s true the iron warehouse locks Spiritual Energy, but the Dao Artifacts inside are like gold-devouring beasts. Duo Bao Building couldn’t bear seeing these two treasures deteriorate, yet nurturing them is equally difficult, leaving us no option but to leave them here to fate," Manager Qian said, his tone bitter with regret.

Over the years, he had witnessed countless precious Dao Artifacts becoming damaged, and the memories of them kept him sleepless at night.

Though he wished to sell them, who in this era would spare the expense to buy Dao Artifacts?
