I am Master Maoshan

Chapter 1938 Ice Palace Treasure House
"Ancestor," a middle-aged man in a flawless white robe with a calm face, bowed slightly, with a hint of awe in his tone.

Liu Jun stood quietly by the side, observing the scene with sharp eyes. He knew very well that the middle-aged man in white robes in front of him was one of the two early-stage Half-Step Divine Kings in the treasure house, and his strength was unfathomable. The other strong man was hiding in the dark like a ghost, never showing up, which added a bit of mystery.

Patriarch Yi Ning nodded slightly and turned his gaze to Liu Jun, "Bai Luo, open the door. This is Dan Sect's Grand Elder Liu Jun. He needs to enter the treasury to select eight treasures. I will personally accompany him in."

The voice was calm and firm, revealing unquestionable majesty.

"Okay, ancestor." Bai Luo immediately responded after hearing this.

He glanced at Liu Jun next to him, his eyes revealing a hint of disbelief. In his opinion, this too young man was actually the Grand Elder of Dan Sect, which was really beyond his expectation.

You know, the Grand Elders of Dan Sect are all the best in the early stage of Half-step Divine King Realm, and their strength is extraordinary, not inferior to the several ancestors in the middle stage of Half-step Divine King Realm in the Ice Palace. The general early stage of Half-step Divine King Realm powerhouses are not qualified to become Grand Elders. And how did this young Grand Elder in front of him reach such a realm at such a young age? This really made him feel a little curious and surprised.

However, despite being surprised, Bai Luo did not forget his duty. He gently pressed his hand on the metal door, muttering something, as if reciting some ancient spell. As his voice sounded, a layer of faint fluorescence gradually appeared on the metal door, as if it was activated by some mysterious power.

The door slowly opened, revealing a passage leading to the depths of the treasure house. Patriarch Yi Ning made a gesture of invitation, then stepped into the passage and disappeared from Bai Luo's sight.

Bai Luo stood where she was, looking at their departing backs with complicated eyes, secretly pondering the background and strength of this young Grand Elder.

Around the passage of the treasure house, there are dazzling luminous gems inlaid, just like the stars in the night sky, illuminating the deep passage. Therefore, even if there is no candle lit here, it is still full of soft and comfortable light. This light seems to have some kind of magic, not only dispelling the darkness, but also making people feel peaceful and happy.

Under such light, the two walked slowly forward. After about a minute, a brand new door suddenly appeared in front of them. This door was completely different from the metal door they had seen before. It was made of solid stone and had a simple and calm atmosphere on the surface. Although there were some mysterious array patterns engraved on the door, compared with the complexity and magnificence on the metal door, these patterns seemed more concise and clear, and their main function seemed to be more inclined to warning and temporary protection.

"Behind this stone door is the first room of our Ice Palace's treasury." Elder Ancestor Yi Ning stretched out her hand and gently pushed open the heavy stone door. Her voice echoed in the empty passage with a hint of solemnity. "Behind this, there are a full eight treasury rooms, each of which stores different kinds of treasures. They are all precious wealth accumulated by our Ice Palace for generations."

As the stone door slowly opened, a breathtaking scene instantly came into Liu Jun's eyes.

There are no shelves or cabinets in the treasury room, but caves of different sizes and densely packed are cleverly carved out on the stone wall. These caves are like masterpieces of nature, both practical and beautiful. They are large or small, deep or shallow, and each one is just right to accommodate precious treasures.

In these caves, some are filled with shining gems, some are filled with ancient scrolls and secret books, and some are filled with all kinds of strange magic weapons and weapons. Each treasure exudes a unique aura, they are either dazzling or simple and elegant, all of which demonstrate the profound heritage and endless wealth of the Ice Palace.

Liu Jun looked at the dazzling treasure in front of him, and couldn't help but feel an indescribable shock and excitement in his heart.

Although Liu Jun had been to many treasuries and seen countless rare treasures, he was still deeply shocked by the treasures in front of him when he stepped into the Ice Palace treasury.

The treasures here, both in quantity and quality, were no worse than the cave under the lake he had encountered before. Those dazzling gems, magical instruments that shone with mysterious light, and pills that exuded a faint medicinal fragrance all made him yearn for them. However, among these many treasures, Liu Jun's eyes were attracted by a small cave on the wall.

He walked closer and saw an emerald green bottle lying quietly in the small cave. The bottle was not big, but the surface was carved with exquisite patterns, which looked simple and elegant. Although compared with other treasures here, this emerald green bottle might be the bottom one, but Liu Jun had a special liking for it.

"Can you give this to me?" Liu Jun pointed to the small hole on the wall, his eyes flashing with anticipation.

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Yi Ning was slightly stunned, then smiled and said, "Of course you can, but why don't you look at anything else? Although this bottle of boiling stone water is a treasure, it can only be used to replenish life force, which may not be the most practical for you."

However, Liu Jun shook his head and said firmly: "It's okay, this is it. Can I keep it?" As he said that, he carefully took the emerald green bottle in his hand, as if he had obtained some rare treasure.

Upon seeing this, Patriarch Yining gently waved his hand, indicating that it was enough to put it away.

"Of course you can. You can still choose seven more treasures. However, I have to remind you that such an opportunity is rare. You are the second outsider to enter the Ice Palace since its establishment. Therefore, it is best to choose carefully and not let the rare items pass by." Yi Ning said slowly. Upon hearing this, Liu Jun couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart, and his good impression of this ancestor Yi Ning instantly increased a few points. In the world of the God Realm, where the strong are respected and interests are paramount, such a generous and graceful person is rare, which made him secretly decide that he must make friends with the ancestor Yi Ning in the future.

Later, under the guidance of the ancestor Yi Ning, the two of them stepped into the deeper part of the Ice Palace Treasury, from the second room to the third room, and then to the fourth room. Along the way, the treasures in the treasury were so numerous that it was hard to take it all in. However, Liu Jun was not fooled by the splendor on the surface. He knew very well that in this treasury, the deeper you go, the more precious treasures are often hidden.

Time passed quietly, and when the two arrived in front of the ninth room, Liu Jun had already selected five treasures, but there were still three items short of the total number he could choose. This ninth room was completely different from the previous eight storage rooms, which could be seen from the unique door alone.

The doors of the first eight rooms were all heavy stone doors, carved with mysterious runes, revealing an ancient and solemn atmosphere. However, the door of the ninth room was neither cold metal nor heavy stone, but made of an indescribable wood material. The texture of this wood was delicate and deep, the color was as warm as jade, and it exuded a light, refreshing fragrance that lifted people's spirits.

Liu Jun walked closer to take a closer look. Even with his extensive knowledge, he could not recognize what kind of precious wood it was. He sniffed the fragrance gently, and felt his mind calm, as if all his troubles and distractions were purified by the fragrance. At this moment, he was more convinced that there must be an extraordinary treasure hidden in this ninth room.

The method of opening the wooden door of the ninth room is truly amazing, as it actually uses very advanced facial recognition technology.

That's right, it was that facial recognition, a technology that is widely used in the modern world, but it was also cleverly used in the God Realm. Liu Jun's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what he saw. He originally thought that everything in the God Realm would be extraordinary and unique, but he didn't expect it to be so advanced.

I saw that the old ancestor Yining gently knocked on the mysterious wooden door, as if she was waking up an old friend who was sleeping. "Old Nine, wake up, open the door." Her voice was gentle and powerful, with an unquestionable majesty.

As soon as the words fell, a human face slowly emerged from the wooden door. The face looked a little lazy, as if it had just been awakened from sleep. It yawned, stretched out a hand from the wooden door, rubbed its eyes, first looked at the ancestor Yi Ning, and then cast its gaze on Liu Jun next to him, with a hint of confusion and curiosity in its eyes.

"Yining? Why did you think of this place? Who is this guy?" The human face asked unceremoniously, with a teasing and casual tone. Obviously, it had a good relationship and tacit understanding with the ancestor Yining.

Patriarch Yi Ning smiled slightly and explained, "This is Danzong's Grand Elder Liu Jun. He saved Mu Chendong and Mu Qianchou not long ago and is our Ice Palace's benefactor. Today, we came here specially to pick out some treasures as a token of our gratitude to him."

When the human face heard this, a trace of surprise and praise flashed in its eyes. "Oh, you are really the benefactor of the Ice Palace! Yes, yes, come in!" After saying this, it gently waved its hands, and the two wooden doors slowly opened, revealing the true appearance of the ninth room of the Ice Palace's treasure house.

The treasures in the ninth room were completely different from the dazzling treasures in the previous rooms. They seemed to be forgotten by time, lying there quietly without any publicity or show-off. The small caves in the room were particularly dim. If Liu Jun did not have a pair of insightful eyes, it would be difficult to find that these small caves actually hid precious treasures.

The light in the cave was dim, and one could only vaguely see the treasures flickering in the dimness, like the most inconspicuous stars in the night sky, waiting to be discovered by those who are interested. Liu Jun approached these small caves carefully, his eyes lingering on each treasure, trying to find the most precious one.

"These treasures are more precious than those in the previous rooms." Ancestor Yining stood at the door, looking deeply at Liu Jun's back, with a barely perceptible admiration in his tone, "Take your time to pick, don't be in a hurry."

Elder Yining did not follow Liu Jun into the room, but stayed beside the ancient wooden door.

At this moment, the face on the wooden door suddenly spoke, with a hint of confusion and surprise in his tone: "What's going on? So generous, letting me pick any one I want? Just for saving my life, can't I just pick one from the eight rooms in front?"

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Yi Ning raised a faint smile and said slowly: "He refined the Chaos Kaiyuan Pill, which is such a difficult divine pill that no one can match it even in the Dan Sect. Moreover, he also forcibly entered Mu Chendong's spiritual world and helped Mu Chendong overcome his mental tribulation, allowing our Ice Palace to have another mid-stage Half-Step Divine King Realm expert. Such a favor cannot be measured by just a few treasures."

“Also, the Dan Sect’s protective formation, the Twelve Heavenly Gods and Demons Formation, was also set up by him.” Elder Yi Ning continued, with a hint of admiration in his tone, “Such a genius, my Ice Palace will naturally make friends with him.”

The face on the wooden door opened his mouth in shock when he heard this. He asked in disbelief, "What? What did you say? Is this true?"

Elder Yi Ning nodded, and said firmly: "No lies at all."

At this time, Liu Jun had been selecting in the cave for a long time, and his eyes finally fell on a treasure that looked ordinary but revealed an extraordinary aura. He gently picked up the treasure, looked at it carefully, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
