BXBX NOVEL Chapter 108 The Ancient Treasury
Yuan, Anna, Grace, Lily, Emma, and Xi Meili took a deep breath as they peered inside the treasure room.
To their surprise, the room was initially shrouded in darkness, but as they stepped inside, the room brightened. The air felt cool, as if there was an invisible air conditioner running in the room.
However, what caught their attention was the size of the room—it was smaller than they had anticipated, considering the imposing size of the door.
Inside the treasure room, which was slightly larger than a living room of a middle-class family, dozens of display cases were placed in an orderly manner.
The room gave off the ambiance of an antique shop, reminiscent of his memories back on Earth.
Anna, Grace, Emma, Lily, and Xi Meili\'s eyes lit up with excitement as they took in the sight before them.
The display cases were filled with a plethora of treasures—weapons of various shapes and sizes, technique books, and many other valuable artifacts—all neatly arranged for their perusal.
Yuan immediately walked around the room and looked at the treasures in the display cases.
[Venerable Moonlit Blade]
[Grade: Ancient]
[Quality: Peak]
[Minimum Required Cultivation: Spirit Lord Realm]
[Description: A revered sword said to possess the essence of the moon, granting the wielder mystical abilities and inflicting lunar-based curses.]
"What a powerful treasure... " Yuan subconsciously muttered, looking at the sword in one of the display cases.
Anna\'s gaze lingered on a gleaming sword, her fingers itching to feel its weight and test its balance. "These weapons... they hold such power," she murmured, her voice filled with awe.
Emma, lost in a daze, stared at the weapons in fascination. "What kind of weapons are these to possess such a potent aura?" she wondered aloud, her voice tinged with curiosity.
Xi Meili approached the display cases and cautioned them, her voice carrying a note of caution. "These weapons are above the Divine Grade, and with our current level of cultivation, we wouldn\'t be able to wield them. Moreover, if you touch them recklessly, you risk exploding and losing your life."
She continued, providing further explanation. "Weapons above the Earth Rank are called spiritual weapons. They possess their own consciousness and if they deem you unworthy of wielding them, they will channel an immense amount of spiritual energy into your body, causing it to explode."
Anna\'s eyes widened in shock at the revelation. "Explode and die just from touching them?" she exclaimed, swiftly retracting her hand from the weapon she had been about to touch.
Xi Meili nodded solemnly, emphasizing the danger they faced. "Yes, we must exercise extreme caution and not underestimate the power of these spiritual weapons. They are not to be trifled with."
Yuan looked at his mother Anna, who appeared to be drawn to that particular sword. Its blue hue mirrored the color of her eyes. With a warm smile, he spoke up, addressing his mother.
"Mom, if you like that sword, you can keep it," Yuan offered, his voice filled with affection. "Just be careful not to touch it."
Anna\'s face brightened with delight as she heard her son\'s words, who also happened to be her husband now.
"Alright, I will take it," she exclaimed, her excitement evident. She carefully opened the display case and retrieved the sword, ensuring she didn\'t make direct contact with it. With practiced ease, she safely stored the sword inside her storage ring, keeping it within her possession without risking any danger.
Just like Anna, Grace, Lily, and Emma, the other members of the group also discovered their weapon of choice within the treasure room. Each of them found Peak Quality Ancient Grade treasures, weapons of immense power and prestige.
However, due to their current cultivation levels, they were also unable to wield these weapons without facing dire consequences.
Unfortunately, Xi Meili had not yet found a suitable weapon for herself. Yuan turned his gaze towards her and inquired, "Why haven\'t you chosen a weapon, Meili?"
"I don\'t have a preference for swords. I\'d rather have a spear." Xi Meili replied with a smile.
Yuan nodded understandingly. "Let\'s continue searching," he suggested. "I\'m confident that you will find a spear that suits you perfectly."
"Un"Xi Meili\'s face lit up with excitement as she eagerly agreed.
With renewed determination, the group explored the treasure room further. They came across numerous treasures of exceptional quality, ranging from Spirit Grade to Divine Grade. Yuan carefully gathered each item and stored them within his system storage, ensuring their safekeeping.
Oh! This is...?" Yuan\'s eyes widened as he laid his gaze upon a long flaming red spear, carefully displayed within a case.
Engraved on the spear was the fierce image of an angry dragon, emanating a powerful and intimidating aura.

"What a powerful spear," Yuan exclaimed, feeling the intensity of the weapon\'s aura.
Excitedly, he called out to Xi Meili, "Meili, come here! I\'ve found a spear that will suit you perfectly."
Xi Meili\'s eyes widened in anticipation. "Really?" she exclaimed.
"Yes, come and have a look!" Yuan replied with enthusiasm.
Xi Meili\'s eyes sparkled with anticipation as she hurried over to where the spear was. She looked at it with great curiosity, instantly recognizing the familiar aura of a dragon emanating from the weapon.
However, she sensed that the aura of the spear tried to clash with her own, taking the form of a fiery dragon, but it was effortlessly subdued by Xi Meili\'s own divine dragon aura. She was a real living, breathing Divine Dragon.
Turning to Yuan with a cute smile, Xi Meili said, "I will take it. This spear perfectly matches me. Thank you very much, hubby."
"You\'re welcome, my dear!" Yuan responded with a warm smile.
Delighted, Xi Meili gently picked up the spear and stored it inside her storage ring, its fiery presence now under her careful control. Intrigued by her ability to handle the Peak Quality Ancient-Grade treasure without any adverse effects, Yuan couldn\'t help but inquire.
"Meili, how are you able to touch the treasure without experiencing any backlash?" he asked.
Xi Meili smiled and explained, "Hubby, unlike humans, we divine beasts don\'t need to adhere to such rules. Our bodies are much stronger than those of humans, allowing us to ignore such limitations."
In that moment, Nora spoke, [Host, divine beasts are fundamentally different from humans. They possess innate abilities that allow them to defy certain rules. They can cultivate effortlessly, and their bodies naturally absorb Qi from the air, even without active cultivation techniques.]
"With such extraordinary abilities, they truly deserve to be called divine..."
Yuan\'s admiration for Xi Meili grew as he contemplated the immense capabilities of divine beasts.
As Yuan meticulously explored the treasure room, his eyes fell upon a peculiar sight—a small glass bottle containing a transparent liquid. Intrigued, he couldn\'t help but narrow his gaze, recognizing the significance of what lay before him.
"This is?" Yuan exclaimed, his curiosity piqued by the mysterious contents of the bottle.

Aware of the immense value it held for his wives and himself, he swiftly retrieved the bottle and safely stored it within his system storage.
The transparent liquid contained within the bottle possessed extraordinary properties. It had the power to extend the lifespan of cultivators by an astonishing 10,000 years while simultaneously purifying their bodies of impurities.
Yuan understood the immense potential it held, knowing that it would elevate the strength and cultivation speed of his wives to unprecedented heights.
Eager to continue his exploration, Yuan moved on to the next treasures awaiting his attention, with appeared to be a robe.
[Celestial Silk Robes]

[Quality: Peak]
[Minimum Required Cultivation: Spirit Grandmaster Realm]
[Description: Flowing robes woven from celestial silk, granting the wearer enhanced spiritual power and protection against mystical energies.]
The robes exuded an aura of power and protection, leaving Yuan in awe of their capabilities.
"This is indeed a good treasure," Yuan remarked with a sense of satisfaction. "With these robes, I won\'t have to worry about sustaining any damage from the feeble attacks of lowly mages."
Recognizing the immense value and utility of the robes, he swiftly stored them inside his storage ring, knowing that they would serve him well in his future endeavors.
His attention then shifted to the next treasure that awaited him—a cultivation technique.
[Thunderous Fist of the Celestial Dragon]
[Grade: Ancient]
[Description: A fist technique that channels the might of a celestial dragon, consumes eighty percent of overall Qi to unleashing thunderous shockwaves and devastating blows.]
"What a powerful technique," Yuan remarked, his voice tinged with awe. "And it has a nice ring to it." However, his excitement was tempered by the realization that the technique came with a significant drawback—it consumed a staggering 80 percent of his Qi. Concern flickered across his face as he pondered the implications of such high Qi consumption.
"It\'s too much," Yuan muttered, contemplating the potential strain on his energy reserves. Nevertheless, he recognized the value of the technique and its potential utility in situations where wielding his sword openly was impractical.
"I will learn it later," he decided, resolving to master the technique when the need arose.
He foresaw scenarios where the use of his sword would be restricted or forbidden, and in those moments, this cultivation technique would prove invaluable.
