Chapter 509: Chapter 224: Demon Dao Restriction: Breaking the Storage Ring
However, the most notable feature of Earth Vein Essence Milk was its ability to repair minor damage to a cultivator’s Golden Core, such as that caused by accidents like a failed breakthrough.
It specified "minor" damage because if a Golden Core was severely injured, there would be no point in trying to recover, even if the person survived.
The latter was Spirit Flower Dew, collected on the night of a full moon before sunrise.
It had to be stored in a Land of Extreme Yin, where it would take thirty-six years to condense into Shuanghua.
Typically, a hundred catties of dew would only yield a single portion of this Frost.
In short, although they were all Tier Three Spiritual Objects, they were all top-quality treasures.
Next were three brand-new Spiritual Artifacts.
Xiao Chen wasn’t too concerned about these, however. He wasn’t short on Spiritual Artifacts at the moment.
So, he just picked out one of them, a Hundred Feather Silk Robe, and examined it briefly.
This Spirit Robe was crafted from nine hundred and ninety-nine feathers of a Tier Three Spirit Bird, all strung together with a special, shimmering thread.
All the feathers were white, and they lay so smoothly together that the robe resembled one made of white silk. During Magical Combat, it could deploy a Feather Shield.
’I’ll sell the other two for Spirit Stones, but I think I’ll keep this one for myself.’
Xiao Chen draped it over his shoulders to try it on, feeling it was time he got a new Magic Robe.
It had been a long time since his breakthrough to the Golden Core realm, yet he was still wandering around in a Tier Two Magic Robe. It was high time he wore something better.
WHOOSH!
Finally, Xiao Chen took a deep breath, preparing to open the Spirit Storage Boxes.
’I pray to all the gods and buddhas, please let me get something good!’
He rubbed his hands together and picked up the first box. ’Open!’
Inside the box lay a Dao Crystal. Judging from the runes, it was for the Path of Gold.
Without a doubt, this was a dud.
Hm?
’All the gods and buddhas, please cut me some slack and let me get something good this time!’
Xiao Chen blew hot air into his palms and rubbed them together again. ’Open!’
Instantly, a golden light flared up before him.
In the center of the box lay a round, jade pearl, the source of the dazzling golden light.
It was a Gilded Profound Jade Pearl, an excellent medium for inscribing Metal Element Arrays.
It was also a top-tier, Tier Three Artifact Refining Spiritual Material that could serve as the core component for many Spiritual Artifacts.
’Tsk... So much for cutting me some slack.’
Xiao Chen was a little speechless. ’Why is everything Metal Element?’
’What is the Huo Family playing at?’
’One last Spirit Storage Box. I’m not asking for much, just give me something that isn’t Metal Element, please?’
This time, Xiao Chen simply opened the box, and a unique fragrance immediately wafted into the air.
’One, two... nine. A Nine-leaf Cyan Light Grass?’
Before him was a blue Spirit Grass with nine leaves, approximately six inches long and two inches wide.
It was named Cyan Light Grass because, according to rumor, a cyan halo would appear around a cultivator’s body during the Refinement of this Spirit Grass.
It was said to grow only one leaf per century. It would reach maturity at six leaves, and after reaching full maturity with nine leaves, it would wither within a decade.
Without a doubt, this was a top-tier, Tier Three Wood Element Spirit Grass.
Furthermore, it was one of the few Spiritual Objects suitable for direct use.
Usually, refining a Spirit Grass into a Spirit Pill would either enhance its effects or improve the efficiency of its absorption.
However, there was virtually no difference in effect between absorbing a Nine-leaf Cyan Light Grass directly and refining it into a Nine-leaf Green Light Pill.
The only difference was that the Spirit Pill was easier to preserve and had a longer shelf life.
’Not bad. At least I didn’t walk away empty-handed.’
Xiao Chen immediately closed the lid to prevent its medicinal properties from dissipating.
He was already satisfied with finding a single Wood Element Spiritual Object.
After all, from a probabilistic standpoint, there were eight possibilities just between the Five Elements plus ice, lightning, and wind—to say nothing of all the other types of rare materials.
Therefore, it would have been perfectly normal if none of the three Spirit Storage Boxes had contained a Wood Element Spiritual Object.
"A few of you, go check the left side! The rest of you, with me to the right!"
Xiao Chen had just finished sorting through his items when he spotted a group of cultivators arriving on the main path.
Their leader, a middle-aged man with a square-jawed face, was directing his subordinates to explore the Traveling Palace.
Judging by their attire, they appeared to be cultivators from the Yin Corpse Sect.
Xiao Chen’s eyes lit up. ’Now this is interesting.’
’They clearly went to the core region already, so why have they come back to the Traveling Palace area? What could they be looking for?’
’There’s nothing else in the Traveling Palace... only the twelve Treasure Pearls.’
