These three Spirit Fruit Trees consisted of a Spirit Pear Tree, a Spirit Apricot Tree, and a Spirit Jujube Tree.
The Spirit Fruits borne by these trees were not only delicious and fragrant but also contained pure Spiritual Power that could be directly refined to enhance one’s Cultivation Level.
Moreover, behind the main peak of the Jiang Family’s estate lay a tea garden, where over twenty varieties of Spiritual Tea Trees were cultivated.
Although these Spiritual Tea Trees didn’t include any particularly rare species, they represented the accumulation of the Jiang Family’s foundation over a thousand years.
Besides Spiritual Medicines, Spirit Fruits, and Spiritual Tea, as a major Cultivation clan with a thousand-year heritage, the Jiang Family naturally had a dedicated Spirit Beast Garden as well.
The Jiang Family’s Spirit Beast Garden was not as extensive as the Zhou Family Beast Garden but still housed over a dozen common Demon Beasts, including the rather rare low-level Demon Beast, the Five-Colored Pheasant.
It was said that the Five-Colored Pheasant had a trace of Phoenix Bloodline and was a nemesis to all toxins, innately capable of consuming various venomous insects, snakes, and ants. Its blood, rich in Spiritual Power, was an excellent auxiliary ingredient for refining many Elixirs and also a top-quality ink for Talisman Making. Its eggs were an exceptional delicacy.
There happened to be eight Five-Colored Pheasants raised in the Jiang Family’s Spirit Beast Garden, one male and seven females.
In addition, in a secluded corner of the Jiang Family’s mountain gate, a place for rearing venomous creatures was discovered, housing over a dozen types of venomous insects, including centipedes, scorpions, spiders, and poisonous snakes, some of which could injure Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
All these items together were already quite numerous, so much so that the eight members of the Zhou Family could not possibly carry them off.
And they were only the things visible on the outside.

The most valuable possessions of the Jiang Family were those hidden inside the treasure vault.
Like the classics inside the Book Collection Tower, the Magic Artifacts and Elixirs stored in the treasure vault, and the precious Cultivation Techniques and secret techniques housed in the secret vault.
“Aside from everything else, we must find the Jiang Family’s Alchemy Inheritance; that’s something our Zhou Family urgently needs!”
Zhou Chun’s eyes glittered with a clear goal in mind.
The Zhou Family now had two Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage with decent alchemy skills, yet the Zhou Family’s own Alchemy Inheritance was not particularly profound.
Zhou Zhengyuan and Zhou Xinlan, for example, were currently able to refine no more than five types of Elixirs that were useful to Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage, most of which were for healing wounds and detoxification.
This could hardly meet the needs of the more than ten Zhou Family Cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
However, the Alchemy Inheritance of the Jiang Family was extraordinary. In the Marketplaces of Lingzhou, the Elixirs from the Jiang Family’s shops were like a golden signboard, highly trusted by the Lingzhou Cultivators.
Hence, Zhou Chun was determined to acquire the Jiang Family’s Alchemy Inheritance.
He personally took action, first breaking into the Jiang Family’s treasure vault with Zhou Daoyi.
As expected, the vault was filled with a large number of ready-made Elixirs, including those that could increase the Cultivation Level of Qi Refinement Realm Cultivators.
This was a characteristic of a clan.
In addition to Elixirs, there were also various Magic Artifacts, Talismans, Spiritual Medicines, and more in the vault. Zhou Chun and his group even discovered several large chests filled with Spirit Coins, totaling over fifty thousand.
Zhou Chun and the others did not hold back in regard to the items in the treasure vault; anything that could fit into the Storage Pouch was taken.
As they were emptying the treasure vault, Zhou Mingde found the secret vault of the Jiang Family.
Upon hearing this news, Zhou Chun quickly headed to the location of the secret vault.
Unlike the Zhou Family, which hid their secret vault within a mountain cliff, the Jiang Family’s secret vault was situated at the bottom of a pool of water. If not for Zhou Mingde’s thorough search, it would have been difficult to detect its presence.
When Zhou Chun and Zhou Daoyi arrived at the scene, Zhou Mingde was using magic to drain the pool.
Seeing this, Zhou Daoyi immediately asked the Green Flood Dragon to help, which quickly drained the water from the pool, revealing the dark mud at the bottom.
The Green Flood Dragon then created a tornado, which swept all the mud out to the forests outside.
After clearing the several feet thick layer of mud, dark green rocks became visible at the bottom of the pool. The stone wall was inscribed with mysterious Spirit Patterns, emitting a faint black light, and one could vaguely detect the existence of a stone door.
Seeing this, Zhou Chun couldn’t help but mutter, “We didn’t find the core Alchemy Inheritance of the Jiang Family in the Book Collection Tower or Jiang Shicheng’s dwelling; it must be in this secret vault.”
“`
After finishing speaking, he turned his gaze to a blue-garbed female cultivator behind him and asked, “How about it, Xindie, do you have confidence in breaking the Formation of this secret vault by normal means?”
All secret vaults generally have a self-destruct mechanism; once they encounter an external force trying to forcefully destroy the protective Guardian Formation of the vault, the self-destruct mechanism inside will be triggered, damaging the stored items.
Therefore, Zhou Chun could only pin his hopes on Zhou Xindie, the best Array Master of the Zhou Family, hoping she could use the means of an Array Master to decipher the Guardian Formation outside the secret vault without triggering the internal self-destruct mechanism and enter the vault.
Upon hearing his question, Zhou Xindie first stared at the wall for a while, then spoke softly, “The Formation on it doesn’t look particularly complex. If the junior is given ten days to half a month, I am fifty percent confident in breaking through it.”
“That won’t do, we don’t have that much time; at most, we must leave this place by tomorrow!”
Zhou Chun immediately shook his head, rejecting the idea.
This place is, after all, Lingzhou. Even if the Jiang Family has been wiped out and the Tianjing Sect is being held back by the Green Lotus Temple and can’t act directly, the Zhou Family cannot afford to stay in the Jiang Family’s mountain gate for more than ten days; that would be far too dangerous.
Zhou Mingde also spoke up at this time, “Let’s forcefully break the Formation. As soon as it’s broken, send in the Fire Divine Jackal and Green Flood Dragon. To get something out of it is a gain!”
Hearing the two of them speak like this, although Zhou Xindie felt it was a pity, she still dutifully suggested, “If we must forcefully break the Formation, we could focus our power on attacking the stone door.”
“Alright, then let’s follow Xindie’s advice. Let’s join forces!”
As Zhou Chun spoke, he brought out his golden long saber Magic Artifact.
He raised his hand and swiped it over the long saber, which suddenly burst into a golden radiance. Instantly, a golden blade aura several inches thick emerged from it.
This was a special effect from the second chapter of the “Golden Cauldron Profound Technique,” which could enhance the sharpness of swords and sabers like an enchantment; the downside was that it was quite mana-consuming.
At that moment, following Zhou Chun’s low shout, Magic Artifacts from the three Purple Mansion Cultivators of the Zhou Family struck the stone door at the bottom of the pool simultaneously.
Boom!
A loud booming sound rose, and the stone door shattered explosively under the attack of the three Magic Artifacts.
Now was the moment!
As the stone door shattered, both the much smaller Fire Divine Jackal and Green Flood Dragon transformed into a red and green phantom respectively and shot through the breach into the vault.
Simultaneously, a fierce blaze shone through the gap into the eyes of Zhou Chun and the others; the vault’s self-destruct Array had also been triggered and had started incinerating the treasures within.
At this moment, everyone could only hope that the Fire Divine Jackal and Green Flood Dragon were fortunate enough to successfully bring out the Jiang Family’s Alchemy Inheritance.
“They’re out!”
A moment later, the Fire Divine Jackal and Green Flood Dragon emerged one after another from the secret vault, now a sea of flames, landing before their respective masters.
They then opened their mouths and spat out the treasures they had swallowed from the vault.
In their haste, they had not brought out many items; the Fire Divine Jackal carried three, and the Green Flood Dragon carried four.
Among these seven treasures, two were vessels containing dao; they were a Stele and a Jade Bell, respectively.
The other five treasures included two third-rank Magic Artifacts, along with a jade book, a jade box, and a jade bottle.
Zhou Chun glanced over these treasures before turning his attention back to the secret vault.
The flames inside the vault had not yet extinguished, and their power was no less than that of earth fire. Even unattended third-rank Magic Artifacts would struggle to remain intact in such fierce flames.
“This appears to be the blaze ignited by the Heaven-Extinction Earth-Fire Formation. This Array requires the Earth Fire Source Crystal as a material for setting up and can fully unleash the power of the Earth Fire Source Crystal at once. The more Earth Fire Source Crystals used in setting up the Array, the stronger the blaze once ignited!”
Zhou Xindie’s gaze also fell on the vault’s interior, and based on her understanding of Formations, she had a rough idea of the origins of the self-destruct Array inside.
“Let’s first see if these items contain what we are looking for!”
Zhou Chun nodded slightly before returning his gaze to the seven treasures.
