Chapter 182: Blessing Period! Leaving the Sect~! Looting the Treasury! (Part 2)
"
"Whatever herbs you need, just say the word, and I'll have the Holy Daughter..." Ji Hao Yue paused, "Oh, the Holy Daughter is still in the Immortal Mansion, so it's no trouble. I'll personally make a trip myself!"
"I wouldn't dare trouble the Sect Master."
Lu Ming was surprised and quickly waved his hands, "The Sect Master has a million things to attend to. For such a minor matter, why would you need to personally oversee it?"
"I'll just go and select some myself."
"This..." Ji Hao Yue hesitated slightly.
Lu Ming thought he was going to refuse and was about to give up.
But Ji Hao Yue continued, "That's fine."
"I only have a basic understanding of pill concoction, and I'm nowhere near your level, Elder Lu. Even if you tell me what spirit herbs are needed, I'm afraid I might not be able to choose the most suitable and potent ones."
"In that case..."
He took out a golden token and handed it to Lu Ming, "With this token, you can access all areas of our sect's spirit herb treasury whenever you wish!"
"For any materials you need, just go and get them yourself."
"Thank you for the Sect Master's trust."
"Excellent, excellent!"
"We shouldn't delay, Sect Master and fellow elders. I'll be back soon."
"Of course, of course."
"Elder Lu, do you know the way? Why don't I accompany you?"
They readily agreed.
Lu Ming smiled, "I know the way, no need to trouble yourselves. Enjoy your drinks, I'll be back soon."
You're going? If you go, how can I fill my pockets?
Are you kidding me?
Lin Fan couldn't help but chuckle.
Soon after, they set off.
Before long, Lu Ming entered the Spirit Herb Treasury of the Bright Moon Sect.
Inside, the dazzling array of spirit herbs made his eyes spin, and some of them he had only seen in ancient books.
He concealed his aura, ensuring no one could detect him.
"Is it because I'm holding this token?"
"Perhaps. This token originally belonged to the Sect Master, and the guardian of the treasury senses its aura, so it won't detect me."
Who would spy on their own Sect Master?
If the Sect Master needs something, would they need to steal it?
That doesn't make sense!
"Excellent, truly excellent."
With no one paying attention to him, he could freely do as he pleased.
Lu Ming strolled through, and whenever he saw something good, especially the items he needed, he immediately stored them in his bag.
"Dragon Blood Herb? This thing has been preserved for tens of thousands of years. Good stuff, I'll take it back and see if I can cultivate some Dragon Blood."
"The Bright Moon Sect is quite impressive to have this."
"Immortal Peach?"
"It looks like the variety that matures once every five thousand years. One can extend one's lifespan by a thousand years. Good stuff."
"Indeed, this one's not bad either. I'll take it."
"This one's good too, I'll take it!"
"Excellent, excellent, so many good things!"
"Alas, I must 'restrain' myself. Otherwise, if I take all these herbs back, the Moon Embrace Sect's pill refining lineage will instantly soar."
"Sigh..."
As Lu Ming collected the herbs, he couldn't help but sigh.
There were just too many good things.
His eyes were filled with envy.
He ventured deeper, and the herbs became increasingly precious.
Some were even protected by individual seals.
To prevent theft!
And also to preserve their medicinal properties.
Lu Ming's eyes spun as he picked and chose, feeling dizzy and indecisive.
Just at that moment, the Bright Moon Immortal Mansion's secret realm closed.
Ten genius disciples emerged from their secluded cultivation.
They had all gained tremendous benefits, and their strengths had visibly improved.
The Holy Son and Holy Daughter became even more divine!
Originally, among the holy sons of top-tier sects, Lu Zhicai and Wen Ruyan's strengths were considered mid-tier, not quite befitting of the Bright Moon Sect's status.
But after their trip to the Bright Moon Immortal Mansion, they rapidly grew, truly possessing the strength and bearing befitting of the Bright Moon Sect's Holy Son and Holy Daughter.
The other genius disciples also showed significant progress.
Among them, Tang Wu stood out the most!
"Hehe, everyone, I've gained quite a lot this time. I need to return and seclude myself immediately. See you all later."
"Later, we'll meet at the peak!"
"Hahaha..."
They were incredibly excited and bid farewell before dispersing.
Only Tang Wu's expression remained heavy.
"Foster Father, you think... how much longer do we have?"
The Ice Emperor showed no emotional fluctuations, as if he didn't care about anything, and said, "On this trip, you perfectly executed the plan. Not only did you gain great benefits within the Bright Moon Immortal Mansion, improving your cultivation, but you even obtained the immortal crystals from the core of the Immortal Mansion..."
"However, no one knows about it yet."
"But in my opinion, at most, there's only half an hour left before the Bright Moon Immortal Mansion collapses."
"When the time comes for an investigation, you won't be able to hide it."
"So..."
"It's best to leave the Bright Moon Sect quickly."
The Ice Emperor seemed emotionless, but in his heart, he felt helpless.
What the hell is this nonsense?
Not long after joining Cloud Soaring Valley, he had secretly caused trouble for the Cloud Ensnaring Vines, leading to the valley's destruction, leaving nothing behind.
Now, after a few years in the Bright Moon Sect...
For the sake of his own improvement, he even 'destroyed' their strongest secret realm, the Bright Moon Immortal Mansion. In half an hour, the entire secret realm will collapse.
Would a normal person do something as drastic as killing a chicken for its eggs?
Are you even human?
If I had a choice, if I had another path...
I would definitely stay as far away from you as possible, never looking back.
Alas...
Sigh.
Providence is a fickle thing.
At this very moment, the Ice Emperor had already lost hope.
Although they hadn't reached the final crisis, and it seemed like he was 'doing well', after all, Tang Wu was a Heaven's Pride. But... he felt even more hopeless than when he was beaten into a residual soul and could only transform into a tool spirit to barely survive.

Remember, you didn't see anything, or else, hahaha!"
Feeling quite pleased with himself, Tang Wu felt that his actions at the Moonlight Immortal Mansion had once again proven fruitful. Even his self-reference had reverted to 'this Divine King.'
He was brimming with confidence, "I remember!"
Immediately, he sprang into action.
Like the sweeping of fallen leaves by autumn winds, he began filling his storage bag with various spirit herbs.
Lu Ming's eyes gleamed, "Goodness, just as I expected!"
"I should have seen this coming."
"Indeed, it is the Tang Divine King template, and an enhanced one at that. The trait of exploiting inside and out, forgetting favors and betraying righteousness, is naturally elevated."
"Still..."
"The fortune of the Bright Moon Sect is formidable."
"Even the Tang Divine King couldn't bring it down, and I, myself, am just an avatar of a rogue..."
"However, as the saying goes, it's better to share the joy..."
Since he's already made his move, why should I wait any longer?
Let's join in too!
Lu Ming bared his teeth and promptly joined the looting team.
And he moved faster, grabbed more, and acted even more aggressively!
Indeed, because he was certain no one was paying him any attention, his actions became even more unrestrained!
He also noticed that due to possessing the sect token, the restrictions on those special spirit herbs and materials were completely ineffective against him!
Such a fortunate turn of events?
Why not take everything, leaving nothing behind!
The moment Lu Ming made his move, Tang Wu was stunned.
"This brat... Why is he here?!"
He was flabbergasted.
Was he preparing to betray the sect and make a hefty haul before fleeing?
What on earth are you doing?
Planning to betray the sect too?
"Lu Ming, you dare to compete with me?!"
He kept his voice low, but his anger was palpable.
He could tell that Lu Ming had a speed secret art, running faster and grabbing more than himself!
Moreover, what he had taken was just ordinary spirit herbs, while the special and supreme quality items were restricted and guarded by barriers, unless he wanted to be immediately targeted, he couldn't touch them!
But the question is...
Why can Lu Ming move?
Why are these restrictions and barriers ineffective on him??
Most importantly...
I was the first to act, why are you grabbing more than me?
Is there still law?
is there still order?
Is this reasonable at all!
Facing his accusations and rage, Lu Ming merely smiled faintly, "Or shall you report me now?"
Tang Wu's breath hitched, almost suffocating, "!!!"
Damn!
I would dare to report later.
But reporting now would be signing my own death warrant?
Yet, I've actually been threatened by him?
How infuriating!
However...
There is a way!
Tang Wu narrowed his eyes, "If I just delay a bit, when the Moonlight Immortal Mansion collapses, all the high-ranking members will rush over. At that moment, I will suddenly pounce, and snatch that storage bag from his hands..."
"You, a mere pill refiner, dare to snatch food from the tiger's mouth?"
"You're courting death!"
He had already harbored the intent to kill.
Then...
He remained silent, continuing to sweep up.
Lu Ming took the ordinary items.
Better than nothing, right?
At the same time, he had secretly prepared, just waiting for the Moonlight Immortal Mansion to collapse...
Boom!
Thunder!
Suddenly.
A massive shock wave accompanied a deafening roar, echoing through the entire Bright Moon Sect.
Tang Wu's gaze sharpened.
The moment... has arrived!
Would he soar to new heights or be killed in the Bright Moon Sect, it all depends on today.
Better to be bold and live, than to be timid and starve!
By this point, Lu Ming, who had already emptied the entire spirit herb treasury, was somewhat 'dazed.'
Truly dazed.
"Everything was fine, where did this commotion come from?"
"Could it be a powerful enemy has come to attack?"
"Did the Tang Divine King get early intel, so he dared to loot?"
At this moment,
Both felt several terrifying auras sweeping over the treasury...
"Right now!"
Tang Wu suddenly erupted, using the Cloud Ensnaring Vines to bind Lu Ming tightly, then a 'Rabbit Kicks Eagle' move was unleashed, using the first and second soul rings to their fullest extent.
Lu Ming was instantly bound by the Cloud Ensnaring Vines, struggling fiercely but unable to break free.
Subsequently, the rabbit kick hit his chest, making him spew a mouthful of blood, his chest caving in.
"Ah!!!"
Lu Ming screamed in agony.
"Tang Wu, you actually dare?!"
Tang Wu's expression flickered.
Didn't he kick him to death?
"Die!"
He lunged forward, ready to deliver the finishing blow.
But at that moment, Lu Ming strangely broke free from the bindings. Then, like a phantom, he vanished from in front of Tang Wu, and the next second, Tang Wu suddenly felt a lightness around his waist.
Amid his shock and fear, he realized nothing seemed to have happened.
He hurriedly retreated, "What have you done?!"
"What are you planning?"
Lu Ming's face was ashen, but his heart was filled with the urge to laugh.
He swiftly applied dozens of restrictions, thoroughly sealing his storage bag, and then added several Concealment Barriers to it, before saying, "You dared to ransack the sect’s treasury and even attempt to kill me?"
"I will fight you to the death!"
"With just you?"
Tang Wu was somewhat agitated.
He hadn't expected that his sudden attack failed to kill Lu Ming.
Now, with the commotion already made, his time was running out. He had to kill Lu Ming quickly, or else...
He attacked again, his strength clearly increased from before, and he indeed had the upper hand, repeatedly dealing heavy blows to Lu Ming, but no matter how he attacked, he couldn't bring about Lu Ming's death.
Just then, a terrifying divine perception swept over.
Discovering Lu Ming beaten half to death...
"Ji Wu, you dare?!"
Ji Hao Yue roared, nearly driven mad.
Damn!
While drinking, suddenly discovering the Moonlight Immortal Mansion exploded!
Before he could even investigate, he felt a disturbance from the spirit herb treasury.
A divine perception sweep...
The precious items I finally invited are almost killed, and the spirit herb treasury is now empty...
You're courting death!
