"Right let's clear this vault!"

Along with Long Huangrong's voice the remaining disciples of the Burial Grounds Sect cheers as they head into the vault.

"Princess I must say was there a reason behind why they picked the fifth vault outside of it being the same one that we picked?"

An elder raised this question as they walked along the dungeon. The layout of the dungeon is that of a spiraling tunnel that gradually leads one deeper into the earth. The deeper they go the denser the magic energy here is.

"Who knows? But maybe we'll find out."

They could have tortured those that they killed back there for more information but they were already running short of time. If the vault isn't cleared yet and it's found out by the other sects more might be coming their way for profits.

"Listen up after clearing away these treasures... No that's only if we find any. We'll have a month to cultivate here before the gate closes. Every one of you must make it out of the gates by then otherwise you'll be stuck inside till the gate reopens. Got it?"

Long Huangrong sternly gives the others a warning as they moved along. If anyone is stuck within this realm when it closes then by the time it reopens they'll most likely have already become a pile of bones.

"*Sigh* I can't tell if she's caring or not at all..."

Ye Gui Feng sighs as Xiao Ju Hong walks by his side.

"Heh. Good to see that you're alright Junior Brother Ye."

"Thanks."

Feng Jian Yun smiles. Despite being covered in blood he still looks quite handsome.

"But her warning is definitely to be taken seriously. I wouldn't want to be stuck inside here for god only knows how long."

"Yeah."

There were a few curious looks directed towards Ye Gui Feng but it was mainly Xiao Ju Hong that they are looking at.

As much as they wished to asked Ye Gui Feng questions about the Jiangshi they were reluctant to do so with Feng Jian Yun there.

Moving through the underground dungeons of the vault they came across many emptied rooms.

"Why are some of these floors empty?"

"The fifth vault has always been where our sect goes to. The older generations before us have already taken most of the things away. But the deeper we go the more we'll hopefully find."

"But it's not without any dangers. Some doors leading to the next level has floor guardians."

As a disciple had asked this question two of the elders answered.

"In any case let's go over some rules. If we see any treasure all of it must be given to Elder Shu first. He'll be the keeper until we make it out and distribute it to the one that the treasure is suited to. Even if you don't get any treasures the sect will make sure that you get some spirit stones and merit points."

This seems like a fair way to conduct things so that there won't any infighting amongst peers.

"No need for me to mention this but you all know what will happen if you don't follow this rule right?"

There was no need for anyone to ask as they quietly moved through the dungeon until they reached the tenth floor and finally found some treasures.

Everyone scattered to collect the treasures and brought them back to Elder Shu. These treasures are primarily the objects that the previous generation sees no worth in taking so they are pretty much left here to collect dust.
