Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
He opened the back and held it upside down.
Thud!
A black and round object fell and rolled to his feet.
“What kind of… treasure is this?”
Lu Zhou’s six senses were extraordinary. He could sll sothing strange from the black object. He picked it up and studied it for a mont, but he really could not figure out what it was. Not only did it sll strange, but it was even slightly stinky.
Jie Jin’an’s cultivation base was unfathomable. It was likely this thing was a rare treasure that was worth a lot.
Lu Zhou threw it to the ground.
Thud!
Nothing happened.
He picked it up and slled it again. He wanted to taste it but could not bring himself to do it due to the stench.
He thought about it for a mont. Perhaps, soone else might recognize this thing.
“Old fourth.”
…
Mingshi Yin rode on Qiong Qi to look for his master as soon as he received his master’s voice transmission. When he entered the hall, he said respectfully, “Master, what are your orders?”
Mingshi Yin’s days in the southern training hall had been boring. He was about to grow mold on his body due to inactivity. For five years, he had only cultivated and walked his dog.
Lu Zhou tossed the object over and asked, “Do you know what this is?”
Mingshi Yin caught the black object and sniffed it. Then, he revealed a disgusted expression as he said, “It stinks… Uh, I didn’t an that. Sothing that belongs to master has to be a treasure. This should be a panacea, right?”
In order to show he ant his words, Mingshi Yin decisively rubbed it before tasting it. He imdiately spat and coughed. “Master, the taste is really…”
“Just say it…” Lu Zhou calmly said.
“This thing doesn’t seem like a treasure, master! Please tell what it is. I have eyes, but I’m not discerning. I really don’t know what it is,” Mingshi Yin said as he secretly scratched a little bit off the top and held it in his hand.
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
Qiong Qi wagged its tails left and right as it barked at the black object.
Lu Zhou looked at Qiong Qi and asked, “Do you recognize it?”
Qing Qi whimpered before it took a step back.
Mingshi Yin’s eyes lit up. Then, he discreetly put the thing in his pocket before he said, “Since Qiong Qi reacted to it, it must be a treasure. I rember when we were in the Transient City ruins, Qiong Qi found sothing black as well. After it ate it, it beca much stronger.”
“Food?” Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow.
Now that he looked at it, the black thing really looked like sothing that was ant to be ingested. However, the sll was very unpleasant.
“Master, you don’t know what it is as well?” Mingshi Yin looked at the thing in confusion.
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
Qiong Qi barked even louder.
Lu Zhou tossed it at Qiong Qi and said, “Since it’s a good thing, you try it first.”
If even the dog did not want to eat it, he would have to examine it carefully. It slled really disgusting. If the effect was not enough to make him ingest it, he might as well give it to Qiong Qi. It was not a problem to use Qiong Qi as a lab rat.
Unexpectedly, Qiong Qi barked a few tis before it took a few steps back, showing a disgusted expression.
“This…” Mingshi Yin was confused.
“Summon Conch here.”
“Understood.”
Mingshi Yin left and quickly returned with Conch in tow.
Conch bowed and greeted Lu Zhou before she asked, “Master, what can I do?”
Lu Zhou pointed at Qiong Qi.
Conch understood imdiately and began to communicate with Qiong Qi. Since she was proficient in the beast tongue, she quickly caught the key information.
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
Conch covered her face as she burst into laughter.
Mingshi Yin asked curiously, “Junior sister, what did this idiot Qiong Qi say?”
Qiong Qi. “???”
Conch said, “Master, senior brother, Qiong Qi said this is the excrent of a fierce beast.”
Mingshi Yin. “...”
Lu Zhou. “???”
Lu Zhou frowned. Although nothing much was known about Jie Jin’an, there was no doubt that Jie Jin’an’s cultivation base was unfathomable. Would soone at or above the stage of a Venerable Master use excrent to play tricks?
Mingshi Yin began to retch as he ran out of the hall.
Lu Zhou and Conch. “???”
Although it was disgusting, it was not to the point of being able to cause one to vomit, right?
Conch ran out to check on Mingshi Yin. “Senior brother, what’s wrong?”
“It’s… nothing. I-I’m fine…”
“...”
When Mingshi Yin thought about the thing in his pocket, he felt so disgusted that he wanted to tear his clothes off. Goosebumps erupted on his flesh as he was assaulted by another wave of nausea.
Lu Zhou did not pay attention to Mingshi Yin. Instead, he looked at the black excrent on the ground.
Thump!
Crash!
He smashed the table next to him with a hand and bellowed, “Outrageous! Jie Jin’an, I won’t forgive you!”
…
At the sa ti, on a towering ancient tree a distance away from the Qin clan’s southern training hall.
Jie Jin’an leaned against the trunk with his legs crossed. His expression was one of happiness and contentnt at this mont. He chuckled as he said, “I was just joking with you. Why are you so petty? When you return to the peak, you won’t have so much fun anymore! Huh? That’s not right. How can he still rember my na?”
Jie Jin’an suddenly straightened his back. “It’s over.”
Jie Jin’an flashed and flew into the distance.
…
Mingshi Yin and Conch were startled by Lu Zhou’s sudden outburst. The two fell silent imdiately, not daring to make a noise.
‘Hm?’ Lu Zhou’s eyes fell on the bag that held the fierce beast’s excrent. Logically speaking, if it were an ordinary bag, it would have long been destroyed along with the table when he smacked it earlier. However, not only was it intact, but the patterns on it were shining as well.
Realization dawned on Lu Zhou. “So the bag is the treasure.”
When he held it in his hand, the bag shone brighter than before.
Mingshi Yin and Conch entered the hall again, looking at the bag curiously.
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
Qiong Qi barked happily.
When Lu Zhou tightened his grip, all the patterns lit up in unison.
“Ding! Vast Sky Bag. It’s an ancient sacred relic and has no grade. Its capacity depends on one’s cultivation base.”
Mingshi Yin’s eyes lit up. “This is a treasure!”
Lu Zhou sent a strand of his consciousness into the bag. The space was about 100 feet in radius, and its height was that of the space between heaven and earth.
It turned out to be a sacred relic, but Lu Zhou had little use for it. After all, he could store his treasures in the system. However, it might be useful in the future. After all, he could not rely on the system too much. With enough spirituality, weapons could be shrunk to a size where they were almost completely undetectable. However, he had too many treasures to help them gain spirituality one by one. Hence, this Vast Sky Bag might be useful in the future.
Jie Jin’an likely ca from the Great Void. Did he co all the way here just to deliver this bag? He thought sothing was not right. As he put the bag away…
Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof! Woof!
Qiong Qi barked as it darted toward the black excrent and began pawing at it.
Crack!
The hard surface cracked, revealing what seed like li powder sprinkled on top of an egg. The egg was smooth, glowing, and ink-colored.
“This is…” Mingshi Yin was stunned.
Conch was stunned as well.
Lu Zhou looked at the excrent on the floor and said, “I see…”
“Master, what do you see? What’s this?” Mingshi Yin scratched his head twice.
“The excrent blocked off the aura of this thing. Even cultivators with a keen sense of sll won’t be able to detect it,” Lu Zhou explained. Then, he thought about Jie Jin’an and said, “Your thod is indeed brilliant.”
Lu Zhou waved his hand casually, and the black egg-like object flew into his hand. A chill perated his hand imdiately.. He frowned. “A recycled life heart?”
