Chapter 92

Xiaolong climbed onto Lu Shaoyou's knee. Lu Shaoyou looked at Xiaolong's body, which had grown by about two centimeters since three days ago, now reaching fifteen centimeters in length.

After a slight surprise, Lu Shaoyou guessed that Xiaolong must have benefited from consuming the Fire Yin monster's blood. It seemed that Xiaolong, like himself, who practiced the Yin-Yang Spirit Martial Technique, had a similar cultivation method.

Lu Shaoyou put Xiaolong into his sleeve, stood up, and surveyed the surroundings, planning to find a way to leave this place. He couldn't stay trapped here forever.

"Storage Bag" — Lu Shaoyou noticed a dark green bag on the dried-up body of the Fire Yin monster. This was the storage bag. The harvest from a Wu Po level expert's storage bag should be astonishing.

Thinking about this, Lu Shaoyou immediately picked up the Fire Yin monster's storage bag. If the Fire Yin monster were still alive, he wouldn't be able to obtain the items inside the storage bag, just as he couldn't open his own storage ring, which contained items that others couldn't access even if they obtained it. After he had dripped his blood to recognize it as his, the storage ring had his soul's aura, and only someone much stronger than him could easily break into it.

Now, with the Fire Yin monster dead, the storage bag had become ownerless. As long as there were no special arrangements, anyone could easily open it after dripping their blood to recognize it as their own.

Lu Shaoyou picked up the Fire Yin monster's storage bag and dripped a drop of blood into it. A faint light quickly enveloped the storage bag. With a thought, he immediately delved into the storage bag. There were no other special arrangements, so he could easily enter.

"Truly worthy of a Wu Po level expert, the contents of this storage bag are indeed rich," Lu Shaoyou thought, feeling a surge of joy. Inside the storage bag, there was a jade crystal card showing 30,000 gold coins. In addition, there were over ten second-grade pills, five third-grade pills, two of which were healing pills that Lu Shaoyou recognized from the jade slip Uncle Nan had given him. They were Qi Recovery Pills, third-grade healing pills, which he could use right now.

The other three third-grade pills had the effect of enhancing true qi. With these three third-grade pills, Lu Shaoyou was confident he could at least break through to the Ninth Rank Martial Artist level, or even the Wu Shi level. Third-grade pills were not comparable to second-grade pills; the energy they contained was on a completely different level.

As for fourth-grade pills, Lu Shaoyou didn't see any. A Wu Po level expert might not necessarily have fourth-grade pills.

Apart from these, the storage bag also contained a jade slip and a long sword that looked rather ordinary, likely crafted by a Spirit Scholar.

To Lu Shaoyou's surprise, the jade slip contained a Fire attribute attack martial technique, but it was only a初级 stage technique, similar to the Mountain Splitting Palm.

"Not bad," Lu Shaoyou thought. Although it was only a初级 stage martial technique, strictly speaking, this martial technique was more valuable than a third-grade pill, comparable in value to a fourth-grade pill.

While pills had significant effects, they could only be used once. Martial techniques, on the other hand, could accompany one for life, and no one would easily teach their martial techniques to others. Major sects and families tightly controlled the spread of martial techniques, making their prices exorbitant. Even Chen-level martial techniques were highly sought after, more expensive than second-grade pills.

After inspecting the contents of the storage bag, what Lu Shaoyou cared about most was the Fire attribute martial technique, followed by the five third-grade pills. The price of third-grade pills was already considerable. As for the 30,000 gold coins, Lu Shaoyou knew that pills were more useful to him than gold coins.

The remaining dozen or so second-grade pills didn't interest him much. Although they were second-grade pills, the Yuan Enhancement Pills he had refined himself were clearly better.

"This storage bag is just right. I can use it to hide the secret of the storage ring on my hand," Lu Shaoyou thought.

Putting away the storage bag, Lu Shaoyou cautiously poked his head out of the cave entrance. Immediately, a howling whirlwind almost pulled him out of the cave, scaring him back inside.

On the side of the cave, there was a large hollow. The airflow, colliding with the stone walls on both sides, formed a whirlwind through the hollow, creating the strange whirlwind outside.

Apart from the continuous whirlwind, what Lu Shaoyou had seen outside was a dense fog. This wasn't the bottom of a cliff, and he didn't know how deep the cliff was.

"Am I going to be trapped here to death?" Lu Shaoyou thought, feeling trapped in this place with no way out.

"What to do? This is a big problem," Lu Shaoyou's expression turned serious as he realized he would starve to death if trapped in the cave.

Thinking about being trapped in this place, Lu Shaoyou lost all motivation to practice. He had unexpectedly saved his life, only to face death again.

"Zhi zhi..." A squeaking sound came from inside the cave.

"Rat," Lu Shaoyou was taken aback. Looking around the cave, he saw a rat, about the size of a fist, crawling on the Fire Yin monster's neck, licking the dried blood. Upon seeing Lu Shaoyou, the rat quickly fled.

"How can there be rats here? If it were sealed, the rats couldn't have crawled in. The ground is all stone, so there must be a way out," Lu Shaoyou thought, feeling elated. He quickly followed the rat, which disappeared into a pile of soil in a corner of the cave.

"This soil is loose," Lu Shaoyou grabbed a handful of soil. This was the only place in the cave with soil; the rest was hard stone, which he hadn't noticed before.

Feeling the soil was still a bit moist and had a hint of life, Lu Shaoyou didn't hesitate. He took out the green long sword from the storage bag and began digging.

The rat's disappearance indicated that there was definitely a passage beyond the soil.

Since the rat could crawl through, the soil was very loose, making it easy for Lu Shaoyou to dig. Using the long sword, he dug without much effort, and with his hands, he scooped out the soil. In a short while, a hole about half a meter wide and one meter deep appeared in front of him, with a pile of excavated soil on the ground.

"Chii..."

The long sword dug again, and a faint light appeared from the soil hole. Seeing this light, Lu Shaoyou felt a surge of excitement. The light indicated that there was indeed a way out, leading to another space.
