The first thing that caught the eye were two "hills" almost touching the vault’s ceiling!
One was ford by countless sharply-edged energy crystals, with a shimring aura flowing inside them.
The energy waves emitted by such a quantity of energy crystals caused the surrounding air to distort slightly.
Although a single energy crystal might not be a world-class treasure, they are hard currency across the planar barriers.
Whether used to replenish consumption, power facilities, or serve as trading currency, they are extrely valuable.
The crystals before them were of exceptionally high purity, with an imnse internal energy capacity, far surpassing ordinary goods.
The other hill was even more captivating — it consisted of countless irregular-shaped crystals that seed to have mist swirling inside, emitting a chill and allure that acted directly on the soul.
Soul Crystals!
For a wizard civilization that specializes in soul and spiritual power, and extensively applies various chanical life and elental creatures, the value of soul crystals is even more exaggerated.
They can directly enhance spiritual power cultivation, heal soul injuries, and are key materials for creating high-tier cannon fodder, chanical body cores, and even so special witchcraft artifacts.
Though the wizard civilization has a trendous demand for soul crystals, they seldom proactively produce them on a large scale.
In a wizard’s values, a living being continuously generating value is far more aningful than it becoming a soul crystal after death.
Except during plane wars like the current one, where many scattered soul powers can be naturally collected into crystals after intense battles, only high-tier wizards controlling an entire plane have stable ways to obtain them.
This soul crystal hill before them, roughly estimated, is likely worth nearly a hundred million military rits!
It’s a fortune that would drive any mid or low-tier wizard insane!
"Hiss..."
From behind ca the three Third Level Wizards’ uncontrollable intake of breath.
Their eyes were locked onto the two hills, especially the soul crystals, breathing heavy like bellows.
For them, with assets generally ranging from a few hundred thousand to a million military rits, this vault’s wealth was enough to instantly clear their enormous debts and elevate them to "wealthy" status among their peers, paving the way for future promotions!
Jeming’s keen senses could clearly capture the intense fluctuation of spiritual power from the three behind him and saw the struggle and greed in their gaze.
He could even feel a trace of unstable agitation in their spiritual power.
The air seed to montarily freeze.
However, when their gaze inadvertently swept over the Black Giant standing beside Jeming like a black iron tower, emitting the Fifth Level pressure and an icy chill, the dangerous impulse that had just risen was quickly quenched as if doused with icy water.
Reason reasserted itself.
Turning against a logistics elent wizard who could control Fifth Level elite cannon fodder and whose thods were unknown, especially in this enclosed underground environnt, was tantamount to courting death.
The heat in their eyes rapidly faded, replaced by a resigned look, and they silently averted their gaze.
Jeming nodded inwardly.
This is the advantage of displaying power.
The Black Giant was not just a weapon; it was a silent deterrent that spared him much unnecessary trouble.
Though he wasn’t afraid, he was glad for so peace.
He didn’t rush to allocate the two most prominent crystal hills but turned his gaze to other areas of the vault.
Besides these two "hard currency" hills, the vault also contained large quantities of variously shaped rare materials, such as tal ingots, fossilized biological tissues, and unknown crystals, emitting strange energy waves.
Unfortunately, the wizard civilization’s research on the Giant Spirit Realm’s material system had just begun, making it temporarily impossible to accurately judge these materials’ specific value and use.
The most attractive things to Jeming and the other three wizards were the heavy bookshelves in the deepest part of the vault, crafted from unknown tal and a leather-like material!
Neatly placed on these bookshelves were books, so thick and so slender.
In a highly technologically advanced civilization like the Giant Spirit Realm, common knowledge must be stored in a virtual network.
For knowledge to still be collected in such a solemn manner in physical books and hidden in such a secret vault...
The importance of the knowledge these books carried was self-evident!
Seeing these books, including Jeming, the eyes of the four wizards brightened.
For wizards pursuing knowledge, they might be more attractive than those two crystal hills!
The three wizards were eager but all cast their eyes on Jeming, waiting for this "ritorious one" with the priority choice to select first.
Jeming did not dawdle.
He first approached the pile of rare materials, activated the All-Purpose Eye, and runes continuously flashed through his pupils.
With the All-Purpose Eye, he quickly scanned the materials before him, soon selecting those with unique energy reactions and complex structures, which even he could not fully comprehend at the mont.
For Jeming, such unknown materials had more research value.
Then, unceremoniously, he collected about a third of the high-purity energy crystals and soul crystals, placing them into his internal space.
Seeing Jeming complete his choice, the remaining three wizards’ faces lit up with uncontrollable joy.
They pounced on the remaining resources in the vault like hungry wolves, swiftly and efficiently dividing them.
The two crystal hills shrank visibly, and various rare materials were systematically stored in spatial equipnt.
Finally, everyone’s gaze converged again on those few rows of bookshelves.
Knowledge is priceless, but the advantage lies in its shareability.
One wizard swiftly took out a prism-shaped crystal from his arms, the Star Ring Federation’s standard information collection terminal.
He carefully took down the books from the shelves one by one, placing them under the terminal for scanning.
The terminal emitted a soft glow, fully recording the words, pictures, and even the faint information contained in the materials of the pages themselves.
This process took a little ti.
As expected, during this period, several waves of clueless Giant Spirit Realm natives tried to break into the vault through hidden short-range space jump devices, launching suicide attacks.
However, under the Black Giant’s absolute power and the interference of the temporal disorder field, these attackers couldn’t even get close and were easily crushed.
Their concealed space jump devices were also casually destroyed by the Black Giant, severing the possibility of further reinforcents arriving through the sa path.
Soon, all the books’ information was completely entered into the terminal.
The three wizards, satisfied and with genuine gratitude, solemnly thanked Jeming again.
If not for Jeming’s tily assistance and successfully breaking the seal, not to ntion harvesting, they’d have struggled to even preserve their lives.
More importantly, they also needed to thank Jeming for his rcy in sparing them.
After all, as they had not signed any contract, Jeming could easily have monopolized it by killing to silence them.
