CHAPTER 401: CHAPTER 237: SLAYING; A SURPRISING HARVEST (PART 2)

Jia Lang’s death, the Luoyun Sect will certainly not let it go easily!

Thinking of this, Xu Ping silently marked another note for the Luoyun Sect.

This was already the third time!

"Master, here!"

Shortly after Xu Ping finished the Six Nines Divination Skill, Water Lake Mouse had deftly cleaned up the battlefield.

It presented all the items scavenged from Jia Lang with an ingratiating look, respectfully handing them over to Xu Ping.

"Not bad."

Xu Ping nodded slightly in approval, then placed all these spoils into the Storage Ring in one go.

Now was obviously not the time to carefully examine these spoils, this place was not suitable for lingering.

"It’s all thanks to the Master. Little Mouse just did a tiny insignificant thing." Water Lake Mouse still fawned.

This was indeed the truth. Without the Master, he would have eventually died at the other’s hands!

Hearing Water Lake Mouse’s words, Xu Ping smiled faintly and said nothing more.

He stretched out his hand, summoned Water Lake Mouse back into the spirit beast pouch, and then immediately activated his Escape Light, flying away from this place of trouble with all his might.

...

...

Two months later, Xu Ping returned, travel-worn, to Thousand Leaves Mountain.

After releasing Water Lake Mouse from the spirit beast pouch, he turned and walked into the cultivation room.

Although Water Lake Mouse had now become a Quasi-Tier Three great demon, Thousand Leaves Mountain was a Quasi-Tier Three Spirit Vein, and with the support of the array, it was more than sufficient to satisfy its cultivation needs.

Inside the cultivation room.

Xu Ping took out Jia Lang’s Storage Ring and easily broke the restriction on it, then his Divine Sense directly invaded inside.

However, after an inspection, Xu Ping couldn’t help but be greatly disappointed.

The resources in this Storage Ring were far more lacking than he anticipated, even falling short of an average Golden Core Cultivator.

Probably even some Fake Pill cultivators with a rich background would be more affluent than Jia Lang.

"So poor?" Xu Ping frowned slightly.

An Early-Stage Golden Core Cultivator, and a genius disciple with a Daoist Body from a major sect, logically, shouldn’t be this poor.

"No wonder they’re targeting me!" Xu Ping involuntarily muttered, understanding why the other party targeted him.

Jia Lang was probably also strapped for resources, hence targeting him.

Despite the overall shortage of resources inside the Storage Ring making him somewhat disappointed, he still patiently classified and stored the items inside.

During the organizing process, a jade bottle with a restriction and a piece of wood that seemed devoid of Spiritual Qi fluctuation caught his attention.

Xu Ping’s gaze first fell on the jade bottle, and he reached out, taking it in hand.

It felt warm to the touch, with the restriction patterns on the jade bottle flowing.

After breaking the restriction on it, Xu Ping slowly opened the bottle cap.

In an instant, a rich and mellow aroma of the Pill spread, permeating the entire cultivation room.

"This Pill... seems rather extraordinary!"

Xu Ping’s face showed surprise.

He truly hadn’t expected that just smelling this Pill aroma would actually cause a slight fluctuation in the mana within his body.

This situation was extremely rare, which undoubtedly indicated that this Pill was no ordinary item.

Holding the jade bottle, he tilted it slightly, and a dark green Pill rolled out of the bottle mouth, steadily landing in his palm.

Xu Ping carefully examined the Pill in his hand, noticing its round and plump form, its surface covered with fine patterns, emanating a mysterious luster.

After closely examining it, he scraped off a bit of the Pill powder and put it into his mouth.

Upon tasting a little, his eyes immediately lit up, and his heart involuntarily started beating rapidly!

"Muxu Pill!"

The Muxu Pill is a kind of Pill in the Cultivation Realm specially used to enhance Golden Core cultivators, yet it has specific limitations, being effective only for cultivators practicing wood attribute Cultivation Techniques.

But even so, its preciousness is extremely high.

Because apart from enhancing the strength of Golden Core cultivators, this Pill also has a more important effect, which is to aid in the solidification of wood attribute liquid mana.

In other words, for those wood attribute cultivators aiming for the Golden Core Realm, the Muxu Pill can increase their success rate in breaking through to the Golden Core.

"What you seek all over finally comes effortlessly!!"

Xu Ping couldn’t help but be overjoyed, his excitement evident.

Originally he was still planning how to acquire Core Formation Spiritual Objects, yet who would have thought he’d actually obtained it!

Although the Muxu Pill certainly doesn’t compare to some legendary top-notch Core Formation Spiritual Objects, it is completely sufficient for Xu Ping.

After all, all he sought was an additional assurance, an extra insurance when striking for the Golden Core Realm.

"Keep it well!"

Xu Ping diligently suppressed his inner excitement, carefully placing the Muxu Pill back into the jade bottle.

Subsequently, he reset the restriction, ensuring this precious Pill was infallible.

Having completed all this, he solemnly placed the jade bottle into the Storage Ring.

After handling the jade bottle, Xu Ping’s attention naturally shifted to that seemingly ordinary piece of wood.

At first glance, this piece of wood seemed utterly mundane, devoid of any distinguishing features.

No matter how he utilized his Divine Sense to carefully probe, the results showed this to be nothing but an ordinary piece of deadwood.

However, being collected by Jia Lang, a Golden Core cultivator, into his Storage Ring, it was evidently no ordinary item.

Xu Ping decided to give it a try, injecting a trace of mana into the wood.

As soon as the mana touched the wood, something strange happened, the wood voraciously began absorbing Xu Ping’s mana as though it were a hungry beast.
