Chapter 282: The Nascent Soul Cultivator's Storage Bag, A Thousand-Year Spirit Herb Wash

Following the deaths of Heiyue Laozu, Jiying Laozu, and Mingyan Laozu, their Life Tablets shattered instantly.

The three Demon Sects—the Heavenly Demon Sect, Black Fiend Hall, and Xuanyin Sect—were all thrown into a massive uproar.

After all, they were all Great Cultivators at the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

Even within the Demon Sects, they were among the few powerhouses.

Now that they had fallen, it was an unimaginable loss for the three Demon Sects.

"What is going on? Why did Heiyue Laozu, Jiying Laozu, and Mingyan Laozu die at the same time? Could it be that they died inside the Transformation God Relic?" A Nascent Soul Cultivator received the message sent from the sect, their expression changing drastically.

They found it simply unbelievable.

Because they knew exactly how powerful Heiyue Laozu and the others were; how could they have fallen so easily?

Yet they had fallen at this very moment, exceeding everyone's expectations.

"No, they did not die inside the Transformation God Relic."

"It is said that they went to hunt down Taohua Shangren earlier, wanting to seize the Treasure that Taohua Shangren had obtained."

"I originally thought Heiyue Laozu and the others had succeeded, but I never expected news of their fall to arrive."

"It is highly probable that they died at the hands of Taohua Shangren."

A Nascent Soul Cultivator said gloomily, revealing the intelligence they possessed.

What?!

Once these words were spoken, the expressions of the many Cultivators changed drastically; they had never imagined such a thing could happen.

"Are you joking? Taohua Shangren is indeed formidable, but she only just advanced to the Nascent Soul Late Stage; in terms of strength, it is impossible for her to compare to Heiyue Laozu and the others."

"That's right, just a moment ago Taohua Shangren was being hunted by Heiyue Laozu and the others, retreating steadily. How could she have counter-killed Heiyue Laozu in the blink of an eye? It's too absurd."

"There must have been some accident that led to the fall of Heiyue Laozu."

The many Nascent Soul Cultivators all felt that, given Taohua Shangren's strength, it was fundamentally impossible for her to counter-kill Heiyue Laozu and the others.

This was something everyone had witnessed with their own eyes.

"It is said that Taohua Shangren fought while retreating, fleeing into the Samsung Island Group."

"And the Samsung Island Group happens to have a Fourth-tier Array set up."

"Perhaps Taohua Shangren relied on the Fourth-tier Array to ambush and kill Heiyue Laozu and the others."

A Nascent Soul Cultivator stated another piece of intelligence.

"No way, does that mean Taohua Shangren was playing the pig to eat the tiger, and she is also a Fourth-tier Array Master?"

"It must be so. If not for that, how could Taohua Shangren use a Fourth-tier Array to ambush and kill three Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators? What a despicable and sinister woman."

"Last time Julu Island was breached by the joint forces of the Sea Clan and Black Fiend Hall, it was also Taohua Shangren who turned the tide, killing seven Nascent Soul Cultivators single-handedly and completely salvaging the Wuji Alliance's defeat."

"It seems everyone underestimated this woman. Perhaps she will be the number one Cultivator in the Canglan Sea in the future."

"She is worthy of being Wuji Daoren's daughter; a tiger father has no dog for a daughter."

"What should we do now? Should we avenge Heiyue Laozu and the others?"

"Avenge your grandfather! Didn't you see that the Sect Master and the others are all trapped in a Five-tier Array? If the Sect Master doesn't make a move, how can we take revenge? Do you want to break into the Samsung Island Group to offer our heads to Taohua Shangren and add to her battle record?"

"We are Cultivators, and while we seek revenge for the smallest grievance, we also know how to assess the situation. When encountering an enemy too strong, there is no need to clash head-on; why seek our own deaths?"

"Exactly, exactly. It is indeed a pity that Heiyue Laozu and the others died, but there is nothing to be done. We can only wait for the Sect Master and the others to come out before making a decision."

"That woman is a Great Cultivator at the Nascent Soul Late Stage. With the power of a Fourth-tier Array, who else is her match? Let's not go and throw our lives away; there is absolutely no need."

The many Nascent Soul Cultivators discussed among themselves.

Although they felt regret over the deaths of Heiyue Laozu and the others, after assessing the situation, they still felt that revenge was inadvisable because they were absolutely no match for Taohua Shangren.

Because Taohua Shangren's battle record was too terrifying, it caused her image to be infinitely elevated in their hearts.

This was no longer an ordinary female Nascent Soul Cultivator.

She was one of the three great female Cultivators, worthy of being mentioned alongside Heavenly Demon Sect Sect Master Qian Ziyun and Piaomiao Palace Palace Master Ye Feirou.

Even if they were Cultivators, it did not mean they were idiots.

Facing an opponent with no chance of victory, they naturally chose to be turtles and act as if nothing had happened.

…………

Of course, this matter did not just spread through the Demon Sects; even righteous forces like the Wuji Alliance, Tianjian Sect, Piaomiao Palace, Sunset Sect, and Xuanbao Pavilion were aware of it.

After all, the death of three Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators would cause a massive sensation no matter where it happened.

"Have you heard? Taohua Shangren made a move and ambushed the three Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators Heiyue Laozu, Jiying Laozu, and Mingyan Laozu, twisting their heads off. It was extremely brutal."

A Cultivator whispered the gossip mysteriously.

"I heard it long ago. It is said that Taohua Shangren pretended to be defeated, deliberately luring Heiyue Laozu, Jiying Laozu, and Mingyan Laozu into the Fourth-tier Great Array of the Samsung Island Group, using the power of the array to ambush and kill the three Cultivators, leaving them with nowhere to run and nowhere to hide. She is incredibly powerful."

"One can only say she is worthy of being the future leader of our Wuji Alliance; she is truly peerless and fierce."

"I even feel she could take over the position of the leader and become the new leader."

A Wuji Alliance Cultivator expressed that they had heard about this long ago, and it had already gone through eighteen versions of updates.

They felt incredibly proud.

After all, this was the next leader of the Wuji Alliance; the more formidable her strength, the more benefits it naturally brought to the Wuji Alliance.

The status of every Wuji Alliance Cultivator would rise with the tide.

"What? How did I hear that Taohua Shangren fought one against three, using absolute strength to crush the three Cultivators Heiyue Laozu and the others, killing them so that their Nascent Souls could not even escape, resulting in their total destruction, and only then dragging them to the Samsung Island Group to whip their corpses?"

"It's not just that. It is said that what Taohua Shangren wiped out wasn't just the three Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivators like Heiyue Laozu; they also had many Nascent Soul lackeys who tried to rescue them, but they were also wiped out by Taohua Shangren. It can be called a total extermination; the number of Nascent Soul Cultivators who died at her hands exceeds thirty."

"Some rumor that Taohua Shangren obtained the supreme inheritance of the Transformation God sect, the Kurong Sect, and her cultivation has made huge progress; she will soon advance to Transformation God. Perhaps she is the future number one Cultivator of the Canglan Sea."

"Too brutal. Before, I thought it was an exaggeration to call Taohua Shangren the number one beauty of the Canglan Sea, but now that I see it, it is undoubtedly true. With such beauty and such strength, if she isn't the number one beauty of the Canglan Sea, then who is?"

The many Cultivators discussed among themselves.

In short, the rumors about Taohua Shangren became more and more outrageous.

Through the dissemination by different Cultivators, one hundred and eight versions have already appeared.

In short, no matter which version it is, they are all exaggerating the power of Taohua Shangren.

This has also caused the fame of Taohua Shangren to rise further, spreading far and wide.

…………

At this very moment, at Xianxia Peak, in a quiet room.

Zhou Sui paid no mind to the storms and rains of the outside world; right now, he was excitedly inspecting the Storage Bags of the three Nascent Soul Late Stage demonic cultivators, which contained a massive amount of Treasure.

His heart felt as if it were about to jump out from excitement, because the harvest this time was truly too great.

"Upper Grade Spirit Treasure Black Moon Banner, Mingyan Ring, Jiying Sword."

A glimmer of light appeared in Zhou Sui's eyes.

Without a doubt, these three Upper Grade Spirit Treasures were the Life-Bound Spirit Treasures of Heiyue Laozu and the others; following their deaths, the Spirit Treasures had lost their Master and naturally belonged to him.

First is the Upper Grade Spirit Treasure Black Moon Banner; this Spirit Treasure has infinite power, combining Heavenly Demon Power and star power. By gently waving the banner, one can condense a Heavenly Demon star, resembling a black moon.

It is said that if fully activated, one can unleash the Nine Moons Together, like nine moons falling, with infinite might.

Even a Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator like Heiyue Laozu could not fully unleash the power of the Upper Grade Spirit Treasure Black Moon Banner.

Even the Dharma Treasure used by a Transformation God Cultivator is only at the level of an Upper Grade Spirit Treasure.

The second Upper Grade Spirit Treasure, the Mingyan Ring, is equally extraordinary.

It contains a Heavenly demonic fire—Mingyan Fire—which is as famous as the Taiyin Spirit Fire and holds infinite power.

Even a tiny cluster of this fire could burn an entire island to ashes.

Ordinary power simply cannot extinguish this Mingyan Fire.

Ever since Mingyan Laozu obtained this Upper Grade Spirit Treasure, his combat power increased several times over, and he became a demonic cultivator renowned throughout the Canglan Sea, his strength not to be underestimated.

The third Upper Grade Spirit Treasure, the Jiying Sword, is without a doubt a supreme sword.

Once one grips this Flying Sword, one possesses the ability to transform into a shadow, making one's speed extremely fast, like a black streak of light. It was precisely by relying on the power of this Flying Sword that Jiying Laozu became a famous assassin demonic cultivator.

Moreover, this Flying Sword not only helps its Master conceal their form and increase speed, but it is also extremely sharp and indestructible; ordinary defensive Spirit Treasures cannot withstand its edge.

Often, a single strike is enough to instantly pierce an enemy's defense, causing the enemy to die and their soul to dissipate.

Mastering this Jiying Sword is practically equivalent to raising one's own strength by several levels.

One has to say, they are worthy of being Nascent Soul Late Stage Great Cultivators.

The Upper Grade Spirit Treasures they mastered are indeed extraordinary and possess infinite power.

If not for the help of the Array Formation, I fear I would not have been able to keep them here and slay them in this sea area.

"No way, there are actually this many Top-grade Spirit Stones."

"There are a total of three thousand five hundred Top-grade Spirit Stones; this time I've truly struck it rich."

Zhou Sui was very excited.

He also found a large number of Top-grade Spirit Stones inside the three people's Storage Bags.

To be honest, such rare resources as Top-grade Spirit Stones are not sold by anyone in the outside world.

After all, they can serve as the driving energy for a Teleportation Array, or as the driving energy for a Fourth-Tier Flying Boat or Fifth-tier Flying Boat.

These are supplies with strategic significance.

If one does not have Top-grade Spirit Stones and only possesses High-grade Spirit Stones, then no amount of Spirit Stones would be enough to consume.

Only by having Top-grade Spirit Stones in hand can one be considered the foundation of a major power.

However, Top-grade Spirit Stones are basically held in the hands of Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Ordinary Cultivators simply have no qualifications to obtain Top-grade Spirit Stones.

Now that he has obtained three thousand five hundred Top-grade Spirit Stones at once, he has already made a massive profit.

Such a large number of Top-grade Spirit Stones is enough to build several Teleportation Arrays.

It can even satisfy the energy requirements for several Fourth-Tier Flying Boats.

If sold, one could also obtain a large amount of Fourth-Tier Treasure Pills.

Of course, no one would be foolish enough to trade away Top-grade Spirit Stones.

"Hmm, there are actually so many Demonic Cultivation Methods and so many Inheritance Jade Slips?"

"Where on earth did they get so many cultivation methods? Could it be they obtained them by killing people and seizing their Treasure?"

Zhou Sui rubbed his chin and continued to explore these Storage Bags.

He also discovered that the Storage Bags contained a large number of Demonic Cultivation Methods, all of which were the collections of Heiyue Laozu and the others.

At the same time, these were also demonic arts he had never collected before.

It is a pity that none of these demonic arts were suitable for his own cultivation.

Almost every single one had major flaws.

Of course, it doesn't matter if they aren't suitable for himself; he can just hand them all over to the Book Gu to eat.

Just treat it as data to be stored, which can also promote the growth of the Book Gu.

After all, as the power of the Book Gu continuously increases, its help to him becomes greater and greater.

"There aren't any Fourth-Tier Treasure Pills?!"

Zhou Sui was speechless.

He had originally thought he might find some Fourth-Tier Treasure Pills on Heiyue Laozu and the others, but after searching high and low, apart from some healing Pills, recovery Pills, and Detoxification Pills, there were none.

As for Pills to increase Dharma Power, there wasn't a single one.

Thinking about it carefully, this is actually quite normal.

After all, Fourth-Tier Treasure Pills are extremely precious; even Nascent Soul Cultivators don't have them.

Obtaining even one requires spending a massive amount of wealth.

Therefore, as soon as they obtain a Fourth-Tier Treasure Pill, they naturally consume it immediately to increase their own cultivation base.

How could they possibly leave it behind?

Unless they are a Fourth-tier Alchemist, it is unlikely they would store a large quantity of pills on their person.

Otherwise, wanting to store Fourth-Tier Treasure Pills is basically an impossible task.

Previously, obtaining several bottles of Qingming Pill could be considered immense luck.

From this perspective, one can also see the difficulty of a Nascent Soul Cultivator's cultivation.

After losing the assistance of pills, everyone's progress is extremely slow.

Whenever a single Fourth-Tier Treasure Pill appears, it will trigger a struggle among Nascent Soul Ancestors.

"Wait, is this real or fake?"

"A Millennium Spirit Herb, Xiling Tang; to think such a Millennium Spirit Herb was stored here?!"

In an instant, Zhou Sui's body trembled as he continued to inspect the various Treasures inside the Storage Bag, and he also noticed that there were a large number of Spirit Medicines inside the Storage Bag.

Perhaps these were the gains of Heiyue Laozu and the others from the Transformation God Relic.

They hadn't had time to process them yet, so they just placed them inside the Storage Bag.

Among them, one Millennium Spirit Herb immediately caught his eye, and that was Xiling Tang.

This is an Ancient Era Spirit Medicine that is almost extinct in the Human World.

Even in the Ancient Era, it was worth a fortune and craved by countless Cultivators.

Because this kind of Millennium Spirit Herb can help a Cultivator improve their Spirit Root aptitude, cleanse the body, and perform Bone Tempering and body refining.

It can be said to have infinite wonderful uses.

Of course, for the majority of Nascent Soul Cultivators, it actually doesn't have much effect.

Because they already possess Heavenly Spirit Root aptitude.

Even if they were to consume the Millennium Spirit Herb Xiling Tang, it would be unable to improve their aptitude by much.

Only for those Cultivators with Lower Grade Spirit Root, middle-grade spirit roots, or Superior Spiritual Root would it have a significant effect.

And as for Zhou Sui, up until now, he only has Four-Grade Spirit Root aptitude.

He is only one step away from advancing to a Three-Grade Spirit Root and possessing Superior Spiritual Root aptitude.

If he were to consume this Millennium Spirit Herb, then he would undoubtedly advance to the level of a Three-Grade Spirit Root.

How great the benefits of this are to him is naturally self-evident.
