Chapter 190: Opening the Storage Bag 1
Inside the room.
Chen Mobai stared at over eight hundred Spirit Stones which had just spilled out from the storage bag onto the floor, leaving him stunned.
After successfully mastering the cultivation technique “Nourishing Thoughts and Casting God”, he effortlessly removed the previous owner’s imprint from the storage bag. Although he hoped for some gain, such a massive reward still caught him off guard.
He was never one to have particularly good luck.
Who would have known that the storage bag he’d picked up amongst the ruins on Green Light Island would yield such an astounding fortune?
Snapping back to his senses, Chen Mobai excitedly stacked the Spirit Stones one by one.
Counting as he stacked, he finally ended up with a small hill-like pile of 867 lower-grade Spirit Stones, making him dizzy with joy.
After setting aside the Spirit Stones, the rest of the items inside the storage bag came into Chen Mobai’s view.
There were three cultivation technique books.
Upon checking, they turned out to be the “Sutra of Eternal Life”, “Red Flame Sword Jue”, and “Dual Phase Technique”!
Could this bag have belonged to a disciple of Divine Wood Sect?
A hint of suspicion flashed through Chen Mobai’s mind as he saw the three cultivation techniques.
In Green Light Island Market, few could hold such many Spirit Stones.
Before the attack of the demonic beasts, the Divine Wood Sect had handed out multiple Spirit Stones to sect disciples like Wang Yuanwu to hire loose cultivators on the island.
These three techniques perfectly matched the standard kit of a true disciple from the Divine Wood Sect.
Besides the techniques, there were also two sets of clothes, which suggested the owner was a male cultivator, and over a hundred taels of gold.
There weren’t any pills or talismans inside the storage bag. Probably the previous owner had consumed all the pills and expended all the talismans while fighting until the last moment on Green Light Island. Only these Spirit Stones and techniques, which were of no use in battle, were spared.
The owner might have hidden this storage bag in a concealed spot in the market before dying in battle, where it was later discovered by Chen Mobai, who left no stone unturned.
Upon realizing this storage bag might belong to a true disciple of Divine Wood Sect, Chen Mobai became convinced that his decision to buy Yuan Chiye’s storage bag was absolutely right.
If it had been recognized, having the 867 Spirit Stones reclaimed would be the least of his problems; If he were accused of harming fellow disciples by the Divine Wood Sect, he might have to go on the run.
Chen Mobai stowed the Spirit Stones into the bag he had bought from Yuan Chiye, and coupled with his savings, he now had 1097 lower-grade Spirit Stones.
It was enough for him to cultivate the “Three Suns Body”.
Perhaps it was all in his head, but he felt as if the sky-blue silk pouch had become somewhat heavier.
It took him quite a while to come back to his senses from the jubilation of this sudden wealth.
He finally calmed down after half a moment of browsing through the three techniques before him.
Upon browsing through “Sutra of Eternal Life” and “Dual Phase Technique”, it turned out to be the same book he had exchanged from the sect’s Book Pavilion.
But, he had heard of “Red Flame Sword Jue” several times, yet he hadn’t seen it before.
However, he was very familiar with this fire attribute technique.
After all, in Green Light Island, irrespective of Qi Hou, Qi Rui, or even Wang Yuanwu, he knew each Divine Wood Sect disciple cultivated this technique. Qi Rui had even given him his notes on refining the “Crimson Flame Sword Talisman”, it’s just a shame it was not easy to find someone in the Tianhe Realm, unlike the Immortal Gate where a simple phone call will suffice.
Chen Mobai also asked Yuan Chiye about how many people the Divine Wood Sect had withdrawn after the battle on Green Light Island, and if these familiar faces were among them.
However, Yuan Chiye found it too troublesome and told him to find out for himself after he left Bud Hall.
Unfortunately, as time passed, Chen Mobai was too busy chopping logs, cultivating, and farming, and he gradually forgot about it.
Now, seeing the “Red Flame Sword Jue”, he was immediately reminded of his time on Green Light Island.
It was his first time facing the dangers of the cultivation world in Tianhe Realm, and also a crucial period of growing from an inexperienced youth into a mature individual.
This fire attribute technique unexpectedly includes both talisman and sword dual cultivation.
Other areas are fine. After all, Chen Mobai has already mastered the “Crimson Flame Talisman” and “Sword Qi Talisman” recorded above.
After his studies at the Daoist Academy, he is confident he can draw the “Crimson Flame Sword Talisman”. However, he hasn’t had the opportunity to do so yet due to the specific type of talisman ink required.
As for the subsequent “Two Sword Talisman” and “Three Sword Talisman”, he might need to further refine his talisman scripting ability.
However, this Red Flame Sword Jue also documents the first three realms of sword cultivation.
Sword Training to become Gang, Sword Gang transforming into Qi, and Rainbow Sword Qi!
Among them, Sword Training to become Gang involves condensing spiritual power into Sword Gang, which can be attached to anything, cutting iron like mud.
Previously, the loose cultivators who wanted to rob Chen Mobai’s Casting Sword Ring belonged to such a realm. They attached Sword Gang to their longswords, who, thus, become as sharp as flying swords.
Sword Gang transforming into Qi is a higher realm.
At this stage, the Sword Gang is condensed into Sword Qi, which can attack from a distance. The more refined the Sword Qi, the farther the attack range and the stronger the attack power.
Usually, those who can “transform Sword Gang into Qi” are considered unblockable killers among their peers at the same Qi Cultivation level, because they can’t use the technique of Divine Consciousness Leaving Body to avoid it.
Finally, “Rainbow Sword Qi” can only be practiced after the Foundation Establishment.
In such a realm of sword cultivation, the emergence of Sword Qi can pull the nature’s spiritual energy, just like terrifying tidal waves and long rainbows in the sky.
Chen Mobai recalls the Casting Sword Ring that is buried in the bottom of his storage bag.
Since this was also a thing that he found, and because it is exclusive to the true disciples of the Golden Cliff, Chen Mobai doesn’t dare to ask Yuan Chiye about it, and he also doesn’t have the time to look it up at the Book Pavilion.
However, it seems to be very helpful for sword training?
Chen Mobai thought about the loose cultivators who wanted to snatch this brass ring, and became thoughtful.
However, he simply glanced at the Red Flame Sword Jue and put the technique book back into his storage bag.
Now the main goal is to break through to the ninth level of Qi Cultivation then try to establish the foundation. He also needs to improve his Spiritual Root in his spare time. Currently, he doesn’t have the time to spare for sword training. Moreover, if he wants to practice sword in the future, he will certainly follow the path of Immortal Sword Technique.
Because the way of sword cultivation would certainly be researched more deeply in the Immortal Door than in the Tianhe Realm.
One of the seven Divinity Transformation cultivation techniques of the Immortal Door, which is not taught in the Daoist academies and can only be cultivated by three masters of the Immortal Door, is called “Immortal Sword Technique,” and it is known as the first in killing.
For example, Yuan Yang, this true monarch of Divinity Transformation, is a grandmaster of sword cultivation.
At his peak, he wielded the Primordial Yang Sword, demonstrating the brilliance of one sword breaking all laws.
While thinking, Chen Mobai took out the Casting Sword Ring.
This ring has been appraised by Wu Wan before, but Chen Mobai now knows that Wu Wan’s appraisal was incomplete, and some hidden functions have not been identified.
He thinks it is necessary to fully understand the functions of this magic artifact.
He gets up.
He doesn’t go to the Divine Wood Sect for answers, but makes a phone call instead.
“Brother, I found a fascinating magic artifact at the second-hand market. Do you have time to help me appraise it?”
On the other end of the phone is Ming Yuhua, who has also made a big splash in the Artifact Refining Department in the past six months.
Unlike Chen Mobai, who is somewhat unreal in his talent, Ming Yuhua is a genuine genius.
Not only did he pass the Rank-t Treasure Appraiser exam in his first month of enrollment, he also recently passed the Rank-1 Artifact Refiner exam. He is known as the most talented refining genius in the Dance Tool Dao Academy in the past decade.
Ming Yuhua agreed very simply, asking Chen Mobai to come to the artifact room in Building 6 to find him..
