The moment he saw this box, Xu Qing's eyes narrowed.
He had seen this box twice.
The first time was on the scavenger campsite's Horse-Four, and the other time was on the merfolk youth.
However, even now, Xu Qing didn't know what this item was. He also searched the shops in the main city but didn't find anything similar.
Now, Xu Qing saw the third one.
Almost at the instant Xu Qing looked over, the youth from the First Peak quickly kept this item in his arms. He looked at Xu Qing warily and spoke.
"300 mouthfuls of blood have been vomited, the most heroic is even distribution of the spoils!"
"Speak human," Xu Qing said coldly. He then activated the magic ship's protective barrier, stopping the other party from leaving.
When the youth from the First Peak saw this, he sighed and punched himself, forcing out a mouthful of black blood. After confirming that he had been poisoned again, he used a secret technique to suppress it and looked at Xu Qing helplessly. He thought to himself that the people from the Seventh Peak were ruthless characters. He actually released poison on his ship. Wasn't he afraid that he would poison himself to death?
A long time later, under Xu Qing's calm gaze, the ninth highness of the First Peak sighed and could only speak.
"We agreed before that you would share the spoils with me. I only want this. The rest is yours."
Xu Qing didn't say anything and stored all the items on the ground. When storing them, he found a rainbow-colored token.
This token was made of wood and looked like an identity token, but it was slightly damaged.
Upon closer inspection, he could see a little sheen on it. Clearly, it was like this because it was often held by someone. He looked at the First Peak's youth.
"The clouds of the barren expanses rise from the ground…" The First Peak's youth had just said this when he noticed that Xu Qing was frowning. He wailed inwardly and was a little worried that if he didn't speak properly, the other party would choose to attack him again. He endured it and spoke.contemporary romance
"This is the token of the Seven Sects Alliance. This Sea Corpse Race member we killed should have been a cultivator of the Seven Sects Alliance when he was alive."
"What did you take earlier?" Xu Qing asked.
The youth hesitated. He could tell that this Seventh Peak disciple in front of him didn't know about the wish box. He originally planned to hide it but when he thought about it, this wasn't considered a secret. Moreover, if the other party misunderstood what a shocking treasure this was, he would probably be in more danger.
He shook his head and spoke the truth.
"This is the wish box."
"The so-called wish box is a gift left by the cultivators of the previous era to the cultivators of the next era."
"After the god's fragmented face arrived, every era in the Wanggu Continent would come to an end. Hence, such a tradition came to being. Most people would start to forge wish boxes with special materials towards the end of the era, so there have been many wish boxes passed down since ancient times."
This First Peak youth wasn't used to speaking normally at first. However, as he spoke, his speech became smoother. He even felt his thoughts moving more freely.
"The material of the wish box is rather special and can be left behind at the end of the era. However, I heard that in the past, someone obtained a wish box that looked like a coffin, however the cultivator inside had already died. There was also someone who obtained an empty wish box. So, no one knows what exactly is the principle behind it."
"Even if there are items, because different experts left them behind and sealed them, no one knows what's inside other than the person who sealed them."
"However, I heard that some people have obtained precious resources like magic treasures and cultivation arts from the previous eras. There are also some who have obtained just ordinary leaves. In short, this thing can be said to be priceless or ordinary. At the end of the day, it depends on luck."
"I've already opened three of them. My harvests were average but I believe my luck is pretty good."
"The method to open it is also simple. Use your magic power to nourish it to the limit and it can be opened."
"Usually, this process is very long. The reason why I want this is because it has been nourished and is almost at the point where it can be opened." It was fine if the First Peak's youth didn't speak, but now that he did, he didn't wait for Xu Qing to ask and told him everything he knew.
With that, he took a few steps back and looked at Xu Qing warily.
"If you don't agree, I can give you this item. However, I want that magic artifact and the two jade talismans."
Xu Qing fell silent. After some thought, he waved his hand and opened the magic ship's protective barrier. The First Peak's youth understood that Xu Qing was sending him off and hurriedly flew out.
After watching the other party leave the magic ship and follow on his large sword, Xu Qing retracted his gaze. He sat down and controlled the magic ship to head to the Seven Blood Eyes.
He wanted to return as soon as possible and neutralize the life-linking talisman. Although the shadow could slowly corrode it, this process was extremely slow and Xu Qing didn't want to waste time.
At that moment, he began to organize his gains.
It had to be said that the richness of the materials in the storage bag of a Golden Core cultivator at the same level as an elder was astonishing. Just the face value of the spirit tickets added up to more than 200,000.
Although the spirit tickets weren't distributed by the Seven Blood Eyes, the sect had a place to exchange them. It was just that there would be some reduction in the price but not much.
Xu Qing estimated that he could sell the other miscellaneous items for over a hundred thousand spirit stones.
As for the two jade talismans, they were sold in the Seven Blood Eyes' main city for tens of thousands of spirit stones. The price depended on their effects.
The most valuable thing was the feather magic artifact.
This harvest caused Xu Qing's heart to skip a beat. At the same time, he had a faint feeling that the other party's savings were definitely not just this. What he obtained should only be a portion.
After all, there was usually more than one storage bag.
"Unfortunately, the other storage bags might have been snatched away by the killer or placed elsewhere by this cultivator." Xu Qing took a deep breath. After suppressing his guess, he sensed the remnant soul that was being burned like firewood. A sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
"Let me see how many magic apertures this elder-level remnant soul, which belongs to the Sea Corpse Race that is said to have a shocking effect in the Fiendish Fire Soul Devouring Art, can open!"
At the thought of this, Xu Qing checked the surrounding defense and glanced at the First Peak's youth who was on guard against him. After that, he closed his eyes and the black fire in his body burned fiercely.
Immediately, his 13 magic apertures rumbled at the same time. As flames rose, the burning remnant soul of the Sea Corpse Race surged toward the 14th magic aperture under Xu Qing's control.
His magic aperture instantly trembled and was blasted open.
This wasn't the end. Xu Qing controlled the remnant soul that was burning like firewood and continued to open the 15th magic aperture!
Next was 16, 17…
Finally, after the 20th magic aperture was opened, this remnant soul dissipated.
"It actually opened seven magic apertures!!" Xu Qing's eyes gleamed and his heart raced. Although he had some expectations about this, he was still shocked.
The further one opened the magic apertures, the more difficult it would be. Previously, he had sensed that from the tenth magic aperture onwards, the amount of soul power needed to open each one was extremely high.
Even so, this remnant soul opened seven of them. This was enough to show how powerful it was. This caused Xu Qing to have a desire to obtain more similar remnant souls.
"However, the difficulty is still very high." Xu Qing was very clear that the help of the First Peak's youth in this had played a significant role. If it wasn't for the fact that the youth had used many life-saving jade talismans for him and helped from the side, he probably wouldn't have been able to obtain the soul even by now.
"I've gained a lot this time. I have to return to the sect as soon as possible and remove the life-linking talisman. I'll come out to sea again and strive to form my life fire within a short period!"
Xu Qing's eyes revealed anticipation. After sensing the 20 magic apertures in his body, he took out the feather magic artifact as he nurtured these magic apertures.
After examining it carefully, he poured magic power into it and began to study it.
Time passed and soon, three days passed.
While Xu Qing was nurturing his magic aperture and studying the magic artifact, the First Peak's youth, who was following outside the magic ship, finally finished refining the last trace of the wish box.
The moment it was completed, he was extremely excited. He quickly glanced at Xu Qing. After sensing that Xu Qing was still cultivating, he deliberately slowed down until he had pulled away from the magic ship. He hurriedly waved his hand and formed a protective barrier that blocked prying vision.
Only then did he look at the metal box in his hand.
He didn't lie to Xu Qing. He had indeed opened three wish boxes but there was something he didn't say. The first wish box he opened contained an ancient bamboo slip.
This ancient bamboo slip didn't have much value by itself, but the content recorded in it concerned the ancient kings and sovereigns.
Any item that was related to the ancient kings and sovereigns had astonishing value. This ancient bamboo slip recorded the lives of three ancient kings.
Although it was only a description, it still made this First Peak's youth yearn for it endlessly. He especially resonated with the description of the Ancient Mystic Abyss Emperor. It said that he loved to hide mysteries in poetry his entire life.
This gave him a lot of inspiration.
The youth from the First Peak took a deep breath. After confirming again that Xu Qing wasn't paying attention to this place and that the surroundings were calm, he rubbed his hands first. He then patted his forehead and hammered his chest a few times.
It was as though he was doing some kind of prayer ritual, he even had his eyes closed. After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn out, his eyes suddenly opened, revealing a sharp glint. He immediately pried open the box.
There was a click.
This iron box that had no gaps previously instantly opened like a real box, revealing a finger-sized jade bottle.
The bottle was covered in black spots and emitted an ancient feeling. It contained some medicinal liquid. There was also an ancient slip at the side.
This scene instantly made the First Peak's youth excited and his heartbeat sped up.
This was because over the years, other than the ancient bamboo slip from the first box, he had only obtained useless items in the other two boxes.
Now that he saw that other than the ancient slip, there was also a small bottle that seemed to contain medicinal liquid, he was exulted.
"I've made a killing!" As he muttered, the youth suddenly became vigilant. He felt that he was starting to speak normally now. This immediately alerted him, so he hurriedly changed his words.
"My miserable life in the sea wasn't in vain, I rose to the top overnight."
After muttering again, he finally felt comfortable. He couldn't wait to pick up the small bottle. After looking around, he quickly opened it and took a sniff.
Although this item was well-preserved, there was still a rancid smell after it was opened.
The First Peak's youth didn't know what this was, but the smell caused him to be invigorated. This was because the smell meant that the liquid inside still had medicinal effects.
"The great opportunity of the Jade Dragon Heavenly Spirit, only I am blessed!"
However, he didn't dare to swallow it directly. He excitedly took another sniff with an intoxicated expression before covering it and looking at the ancient bamboo slip in the box.
He took it out and quickly checked it. Very soon, the information inside appeared in his mind.
"Those who are fated, I wish you well."
"I was born in the Mystic Nether Era, and I cultivated the methods of ancient king. I wonder if the God is still around? This box is used to store treasures, but that's beneath me."
"My treasure is contained in my bloodline. I hope the finder is a female, thereby giving birth to my heir."
"Those who are fated, don't thank me. Goodbye."
