Chapter 24

Black with white patterns, resembling a sachet, it was originally tied around the waist of a lean middle-aged man with a colorless, transparent, fine thousand-year silkworm thread. Now, Jun Wuming held it in his palm, and at a glance, it appeared no larger than a palm, looking quite small and delicate.

This item is called a Hundred Treasure Sachet, a magical tool used by cultivators to store items on their person. Depending on its grade, the size of the space inside varies.

Jun Wuming lightly tapped the black and white sachet before him, and strands of dark sea magical power emerged from his fingertips, eroding the residual mental imprint inside. In a few breaths, he completely eliminated the mental imprint.

A black light flashed, and he re-imbued it with his own mental imprint.

Although this item is not particularly precious, it is not something an ordinary cultivator can possess. In Lianyun Fort, only elders can receive one based on their authority.

Although Jun Wuming had seen this item before, his seniority was still shallow, and he did not have one. This time, he unexpectedly obtained one. He extended his mental power and roughly estimated that a space of about nine cubic meters was directly presented before him. A quick glance revealed that this was a mid-grade Hundred Treasure Sachet.

According to Jun Wuming, a low-grade Hundred Treasure Sachet is only about one cubic meter in size, while a high-grade one has no fixed size.

However, Jun Wuming had heard from Jun Qing that a high-grade Hundred Treasure Sachet can at least hold a small mountain, and the specific size depends on the cultivator's level.

However, cultivators who can refine a high-grade Hundred Treasure Sachet are themselves highly accomplished and rarely use such items. Most of them split the space and refine a world for their own use.

With a virtual grip of his fingers, 2000 items flew out of the black and white sachet before him. Raising his eyes, his face showed a slight change, and Jun Wuming inwardly marveled, not expecting this yellow-robed middle-aged man to have such a way of making money.

He casually picked up a white jade bottle and a green jade bottle, sniffed them slightly, and his heart stirred.

"Recovery Powder?"

"Green Wood Spirit Liquid?"

The white jade bottle contained Recovery Powder, a white powder that is an excellent medicine for restoring magical power, and there were several bottles.

The green jade bottle contained drops of green liquid that emitted a greenish luster, an excellent healing item refined from the essence of the wood element.

There were also several white oval jade bottles. Jun Wuming gently opened them, and with just a glance, he saw that the white powder inside was a dark and sinister substance.

He shook his head slightly and casually flicked out a bit of the powder.

As soon as it hit the water, it dissolved, and soon the fish and shrimp in the water floated to the surface, their bellies up, indicating a very strong toxicity. However, this item was of no use to Jun Wuming, as his divine water technique could produce a more potent toxic black water.

He casually put away these jade bottles and glanced at the remaining several pink jade bottles.

These pink jade bottles emitted a beautiful glow in the sunlight, with light spots forming a halo around them, making them look quite extraordinary.

His heart stirred, and he took one of the pink bottles, casually opening the stopper. A faint red aura appeared in the golden sunlight, and Jun Wuming's nostrils twitched.

"Trouble!"

He inwardly knew it was bad. The aura, like orchids and musk, was extremely pleasant, but as soon as it entered Jun Wuming's body, it transformed into a small red snake that rushed to his sea of consciousness, quickly bypassing the black dragon formed by his divine water technique, and directly entangled his mental entity.

A strange sensation surged into his mind, and his sea of consciousness seemed to be wrapped in a layer of bright red smoke. A scorching heat instantly surged in his heart, and Jun Wuming let out a strange cry, instantly tearing off his clothes and jumping into the cold stream, intending to extinguish the burning heat.

If anyone else had been there, they would have seen the youth in the stream turn completely red, his breathing heavy and thunderous. Strands of pink aura spewed from his pores, looking extremely terrifying!

"Damn!"

He was annoyed, and Jun Wuming endured the strange sensation. The cold stream was of no help; instead, it seemed to fuel the fire.

His mind became hazy, his body felt like it was on fire, and his entire body turned red. Jun Wuming felt an urge to curse. This item was not very effective, but its effects were so powerful.

He gritted his teeth and made a decision. A fierce look flashed in his eyes, and cool magical power surged from his pulse, forming black light cocoons that instantly covered his body.

"Second-stage Mystic Ice Spell: Ice Seal!"

Cold light rose, and in an instant, the youth enveloped in pink aura was frozen.

Bubbles rose in the clear stream, and thin ice gradually formed, merging with a large black mass and sinking into the mud at the bottom.

"Yoyo, if anyone approaches this place, kill them without mercy!"

A lingering voice flew out, and a point of black light rapidly approached, instantly disappearing into the water, hidden without a trace!

In fact, this time, Jun Wuming had wronged the lean middle-aged man. This man had limited abilities and was not so powerful.

A few years ago, this lean middle-aged man had taken advantage of the chaos to rob a seriously injured young cultivator from a noble family who was seeking refuge.

This young cultivator was a direct-line cultivator from a large family, a spoiled child. He had caused trouble with a female cultivator from another large family, and the aggrieved family members discovered him.

As a result, he was severely injured and pursued for thousands of miles. During his escape, he was coincidentally encountered by these three people, and his luck ran out. The items he used to save his life had been exhausted in the pursuit, and he was killed by these three people, which was his retribution.

These three people also felt that the cultivator they ambushed was extraordinary, so they fled to this place. This time, they intended to ambush Jun Wuming, but Jun Wuming's small spirit snake was extremely sensitive. Before they could act, Jun Wuming counter-ambushed and killed them.

The pink gas in the red jade bottle was no ordinary item. It was called Dragon Subduing Powder, known to be able to subdue even a dragon.

Of course, this item could only subdue ordinary sub-dragons. True celestial dragons are immune to such poisons, as their bodies are invulnerable to any earthly toxins. They would be driven away by the dragon aura before the toxins could even approach.

Only divine medicines refined from the fruits of heaven and earth could affect celestial dragons.

Of course, Jun Wuming's innate body was not comparable to a dragon's. Therefore, he was easily subdued by the Dragon Subduing Powder. The burning desire was unbearable, and his body turned red like a cooked shrimp, like a piece of red jade. Fortunately, his body's purification ability was extraordinary, and it would take some time to clear the pink aura from his meridians and sea of consciousness.

However, what Jun Wuming did not know was that his rashness had caused chaos in the forest.

Because he did not use the powder correctly, a bit of the red gas spread in the breeze and quickly diffused.

Within a ten-mile radius, a large red fog covered the area, reaching from the sky to the ground. The red fog caused a cacophony of sounds, and various animals became frenzied, from birds in the sky to fish in the water.

The animals were overwhelmed by springtime desires, and even the young birds in the nests in the forest were restless, their eyes filled with a deep red, and their lustful light was intense.

At the same time, in a nearby forest.

Two beautiful figures were resting. "Third Senior Sister, the fish you grilled is really delicious. I've never had such delicious grilled fish before."

A clear and crisp voice rang out, like a nightingale's song, filled with joy. The source of the voice was a girl wearing a green top with white peonies, a green floral skirt, and a purple misty veil, with a water lily flower pin in her hair. She was a charming and delicate girl.

Despite her extraordinary appearance, she held a golden grilled fish skewer, her oily mouth eating and talking non-stop, with a purple sheathed sword at her feet.

Looking to the left, a stunningly beautiful woman stood on a lush evergreen tree.

Her eyes were bright and full of affection, her lips like cherry blossoms, her skin like congealed fat, and her eyebrows like ink. She wore a yellow gauze dress embroidered with a five-colored phoenix, a yellow butterfly floral skirt, and a yellow gauze veil, with a golden peony flower pin on her forehead. She held a jade sword, her beauty and grace unmatched.

Her delicate brows furrowed, as if listening intently, her expression serious.

Suddenly, she looked up and saw a red light rising to the sky, rapidly spreading and enveloping the area, causing chaos. Before she could react, it was already within ten meters of her.

Startled, the beautiful woman instantly moved, a golden peony blooming in mid-air, instantly transforming into a golden light feather, carrying the small purple-clothed girl who was still talking, and they turned into a golden light, flying through the forest.

They flew through dozens of miles of forest and stopped at another stream, where she lightly patted her full, high chest, slowly exhaling.

Turning around, the golden peony's face suddenly changed. She saw her usually mischievous junior sister, her delicate face flushed, her eyes dazed, her chest heaving, and her mouth shouting "hot" while tearing off her clothes.

The beautiful woman's face showed shock. This was the symptom of being drugged?

In a moment, she realized that the red fog must be the problem.

Her eyebrows furrowed, and she was furious. Shameless scoundrels, she had just escaped the纠缠 of those lecherous fellows, and now she encountered an ambush.

Her hand moved, and a golden peony appeared, rotating slightly. She waved her hand, and a golden glow from the peony turned into a rain of light, gradually being absorbed by the purple-clothed girl on the ground.

On the ground, a golden peony bloomed above the purple-clothed girl, and golden light like a veil slowly entered her body.

As the golden light entered, the pink aura gradually faded. As the purple-clothed girl's breathing slowly returned to normal, the flush on her face gradually disappeared.

A moment later, she suddenly opened her eyes.

"Senior Sister, what happened to me? Why did I suddenly end up here?" Seeing the golden peony looking at her anxiously, Mu Ziyi furrowed her delicate brows and looked at Jin Duan in confusion.

"Just now, we were almost drugged by a shameless scoundrel. How do you feel now? Are you clear-headed?"

"What? Senior Sister, someone dared to drug me! Let's go, we must kill that shameless scoundrel!" Mu Ziyi jumped up before she finished listening, waving her small fists and shouting fiercely, picking up the sword on the ground and turning into a purple whirlwind, flying back to where they came from.

Jin Duan was momentarily stunned, her face changing. She dared not delay and turned into a golden light, catching up with the purple figure in front of her.

Anyone who dared to refine such a potent drug here was likely not a good person, either a thief or a villain. Her junior sister was rash.
