Chapter 626 - 16: Murder and Arson Bring Wealth and Rank—The Ancients Never Lied!
The jade box was three feet long, entirely crafted from Tier Three Middle-Grade Hidden Spirit Jade, with a Tier Three High-Grade Sealing Spirit Talisman affixed on it!
It can effectively prevent Spiritual Power from dissipating,
making it an excellent treasure for storing Spirit Medicines and Spirit Pills.
"Isn’t this the jade box that True Monarch of Profound Control showed me that day?"
Zhou Xun’s heart filled with joy,
flicking his fingers to send out a streak of Spirit Light.
The Sealing Spirit Talisman fell off automatically, and the box opened.
At that moment, the temperature in the entire cave mansion rose instantly, almost igniting the air.
At the same time, a surge of pure Spiritual Qi rushed toward him!
Zhou Xun quickly looked inside the box:
Inside lay a two-foot-long Reishi with a crimson hue,
"It’s a Fire Cloud Reishi, indeed!"
"Hahaha!"
Zhou Xun was overjoyed at the unexpected surprise; this Fire Cloud Reishi was his first acquisition and could completely enhance his Spiritual Root talent.
This venture was truly profitable,
and more importantly, Zhou Xun had only begun his inventory, continuing to look further.
It was a significant amount of Light Spirit Stones, totaling seventeen Top-Grade Spirit Stones, which were a considerable fortune. At the Nascent Soul stage, ordinary Spirit Stones could no longer buy what they wanted.
Only Top-Grade Spirit Stones would suffice.
Two bottles of Elixirs, upon opening, were found to be Yuan Strengthening Pills,
which are elixirs for assisting Middle-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivators’ cultivation, extremely effective for Early-Stage Cultivators.
After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, anything that could enhance cultivation was at least a Tier Four Spiritual Object,
hence they were no longer as easily obtained as during Foundation Establishment and Core Formation.
Even sect elders residing in a territory,
most Nascent Soul Cultivators relied on painstakingly refining Spiritual Qi for cultivation,
saving any Spiritual Objects that could enhance cultivation for critical use, which is why the spirit medicines on the battle merit exchange list required so many battle merits,
making these two bottles of elixirs extremely valuable, worth at least half a High-Grade Magical Treasure.
"Although these are elixirs for Middle-Stage Nascent Soul Cultivators, Early-Stage Nascent Soul cultivators can still use them, albeit wasting a lot of the medicinal power!"
"If necessary, they can be traded for treasures, which would be highly sought after!"
This is indeed hard currency.
Continuing the inventory, there were many Tier Four materials, many of which were required for Zhou Xun’s Hundred Veins Body Refining Technique, saving him a lot of effort.
As for the Demon Beast materials he anticipated, he did not see any.
After a brief thought, Zhou Xun guessed the reason,
likely exchanged in the Immortal City, where all major Commerce Alliances were gathered, so there’s no worry about selling.
Suddenly, Zhou Xun’s gaze fell upon a special talisman.
This talisman was entirely golden and larger than ordinary talismans, with some runes engraved on it similar to those on a Teleportation Array.
With just a glance, Zhou Xun recognized it.
It was well-known in the Cultivation Realm as a "Shifting Talisman!"
When activated, it could take the user to appear thousands of miles away, disregarding obstacles.
However, the one that True Monarch of Profound Control held had a shifting distance of only a few thousand miles.
"Isn’t this a Small Shifting Talisman?"
Back when Zhou Xun first arrived in Central Continent, he was hunted by True Monarch of Profound Control, relying on a Small Shifting Talisman, never expecting that True Monarch of Profound Control had one as well!
But thinking about it, Spirit Control Sect was passed down from ancient times, with a history over ten thousand years, possessing some heritage is normal.
With his current higher cultivation and broader knowledge, Zhou Xun now had a deeper understanding of the Shifting Talisman.
The talisman had an additional ability to break through the spatial barriers of Void Treasure,
serving as a reliable life-saving item.
Unfortunately, True Monarch of Profound Control hadn’t had the time to use it before Zhou Xun captured him.
"Unexpectedly, such a pleasant surprise!"
"With my current strength and this Small Shifting Talisman, unless I encounter a Divinity Transformation Celestial Monarch, no one can capture me!"
Zhou Xun rejoiced internally and carefully stored the talisman, ready for use at any moment.
Besides these treasures, the most precious item in the Storage Bag was a Jade Scroll.
It contained True Monarch of Profound Control’s many years of insights on Beast Taming,
although Zhou Xun harbored resentment against him, Zhou Xun had to admit his capabilities, becoming the sole Supreme Elder of the Spirit Control Sect, was truly a master of Beast Taming!
The insights within the Jade Scroll were highly valuable!
"When I return to the Eastern Wilderness, I’ll give this Jade Scroll to Yiqing, it will surely grant her significant benefits!"
After sorting all the treasures, Zhou Xun took out the corpses of the Tier Four Mountain Monarch.
Looking at this majestic great tiger, Zhou Xun sighed,
"What a magnificent Spirit Beast, but sadly it was Profound Control’s Lifebound Spirit Beast!"
The Spirit Control Scripture recorded that any Lifebound Spirit Beast contracted with this skill shared its life with its master, thriving and perishing together!
There was no possibility of being tamed by another!
This beast was Tier Four, and its corpse was extremely precious, its flesh and blood rich in Spiritual Qi, allowing it to be refined into High-Tier Spiritual Pills,
due to its wind attribute, its skeleton was excellent material for crafting High-Tier Spiritual Boats, and selling it could fetch quite a few Spirit Stones!
More importantly, its few whiskers were perfect materials for refining a High-Grade Talisman Pen.
"If I can find the corresponding Tier Four Spirit Bamboo, I might even get a High-Grade Magical Treasure level talisman pen; in this way, I can also try to refine Tier Four talismans!"
Zhou Xun’s Talisman Dao skill had been stuck at the Tier Three Peak for quite some time.
