All things were born, grew old, and then died; stars were no exception.

Although Yang Kai did not know what caused this star to become a Dead Star, he could tell from the materials brought back by Xiao Xiao that this place was obviously rich in resources and had a beautiful scenery long ago! The ruins in front of him were also clearly a great Sect’s headquarters.

A beckoning sound from nearby interrupted Yang Kai’s train of thought and turning to look, he saw Xiao Xiao motioning him to follow.

Yang Kai nodded lightly and with a flicker chased after him.

Along the way, Yang Kai was mindful of his surroundings, but soon discovered that his caution was unnecessary. Because there was no World Energy aura here, even if there were intact Spirit Arrays in these ruins, they could not activate.

In other words, this ruin was perfectly safe.

Soon after, Xiao Xiao brought Yang Kai to a large storehouse where a massive amount of ore was piled up along with many jade bottles and some other miscellaneous items.

The contents of the jade bottles were obviously pills.

Yang Kai picked up a few jade bottles to investigate but found that all the pills here had lost all their efficacy and crumbled into ashes, so he no longer bothered with them. There were also traces of withered herbs that had also lost their medicinal properties many years ago and become little more than garbage.

There was a large amount of Saint Crystals here as well, but these Saint Crystals had basically lost all their internal energy due to improper preservation. The Saint Crystals devoured by Xiao Xiao were probably the only useful ones left.

Inside this storehouse, the only thing of value that remained was the ore!

Ores were durable, and even if they were not preserved in a special way, their properties would not degrade.

Inside the storehouse, there was still several times more ore than had been consumed by Xiao Xiao, all of which was rare and valuable.

Yang Kai stretched out his hand and collected all the ore into his Space Ring with a wave before bringing Xiao Xiao to continue exploring the area.

A day later, Yang Kai had made a sweep of the entire ruin.

Unfortunately, Yang Kai did not have any more gains, as everything of value was probably stored in that storehouse. Even Space Rings, which he found on some remains, had collapsed due to the lack of World Energy support, destroying everything inside of them.

However, Yang Kai did discover that, in this massive underground space, this ancient ruin was only the tip of the iceberg.
