BXBX NOVEL Chapter 231 - Raiding The Clan Vaults?
"How do I get past this now?" Lin Wu wondered.
The underground hall was encased in solid rock. Normally even if someone came here by digging they would not be able to break through the rock as it was over three meters thick.
Lin Wu though did not have that problem. If he wanted, he could split the rock right here and now. He didn\'t even worry about the defensive formation that was placed on the underground hall, as the system had taken care of it.
The problem was that while he would be able to create an opening in the rock, what would he do when he was going to return.
After thinking for a bit, Lin Wu came upon one solution which was to create a very small hole through which the system would be able to scan the interior of the hall. But this meant that Lin Wu would not be able to get some of the items of interest from the underground hall.
Another method he could do was to enter from the main entrant, but then he would be blocked by guards. They obviously wouldn\'t let a beast like him enter, and while he could easily knock them out, the ensuing chaos wouldn\'t be worth it.
"I guess I\'ll just check what is in there first and see if the items are even worth taking. As for the documents and books, the system should be able to scan and obtain the data directly." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
He extended a spike from his tail and inserted it into the rock. Like a hot knife through butter, the spike went all the way to the other end and opened a small hole that was less than a centimeter in diameter.
"This should be enough right system? Start the scan then," Lin Wu ordered.

SCANNER INITIATED: Multiple Targets found
ENERGY RESOURCES FOUND: Wide assortment available (alchemical pills, spirit stones, bloodline crystals.)

"Oh? Bloodline crystals? Now that\'s new." Lin Wu said upon seeing the system\'s notification.
He knew that the bloodline crystals were refined from a beast and could be assimilated by a cultivator to gain their bloodline abilities. Lin Wu pretty much did the same, except he did not have to refine a bloodline crystal himself as the system could process it directly for him.
"Seems like this is a vault for the Lu clan." Lin Wu realized.
He waited for about two hours before the system was done, recording everything from the hall.

SCAN COMPLETE: Please check the detailed log in the separate window.

\'Let\'s see what they have stored here now…\' Lin Wu thought before reading through the new window that had popped up.
"Oh, my… this is much better than I thought…" Lin Wu muttered in surprise.
Due to it being the vault of the Lu clan, it contained everything that they deemed to be valuable. This included a lot of cultivation techniques. Lin Wu roughly checked their numbers and they were found to be about 103 of them there.
In addition to them, there were also some records of the Lu clan that included their history. Then there were books that gave information on the various alchemical pill, herbs, minerals, metals, natural treasures, beasts, formations, and weapons.
Overall, this was exactly what Lin Wu had been wanting for a long time and knew that it would greatly help the system. This would give it a lot of data to analyze and update its data banks.
Lin Wu also saw that the carapace fragment from the unknown beast was kept in a case in the center of the vault, but he didn\'t bother with it for now as he could come back here with Shirong.
He was gonna take it with him when he left, anyway.

DATA BANKS: Updated
ANALYTICS: Expedited

"Now this is good!" Lin Wu said with joy.
With all the cultivation techniques that the system had obtained, its speed of procession and analysis will increase once more. It was now that Lin Wu got another idea.
"Since there is this much information in the vault of Lu clan, I may as well check out the underground vaults of other clans as well… hehehe." Lin Wu decided.
He pushed some soil and rocks into the hole he had made in the wall, to not make it look obvious, and checked the other locations on his map.
"Hehe, I got 5 hours till Shirong wakes up and so many vaults to choose from…" Lin Wu muttered.
He decided to go to the Xiong clanfirst, as it was one of the top three clans and the Mu clan next. He quickly made his way to the Xiong clan and found their vault. Unlike the Lu clan, their vault was not encased in solid rock. Rather than that, they used a simple wall made out of stone bricks, all of which were engraved with formations.
Lin Wu asked the system to take care of the formations while he used a flat spike on his tail to cut out a brick from the wall. Similar to the Lu clan, they had plenty of resources in the Vault including cultivation techniques.
"You know what to do, system," Lin Wu spoke.

SCANNER ACTIVATED: Multiple targets found.

This time the system took less than an hour to scan the entire vault. This was because the Xiong clan had a lot of things that the Lu clan did as well and as such the data was simply repeated. Most of the new data was in the form of records and documents.
After he was done, Lin Wu put the brick back into the wall and it was as if it had never been moved from there. Unless someone specifically checked it, they wouldn\'t be able to tell that it was removed. Besides, the formation array was still intact, so they had no reason to suspect.
"Onto the Mu clan!" Lin Wu targeted.
He repeated the same process and obtained all the data from the Mu clan, which took less than thirty minutes now. It was evident that most of the information was now getting common.
