Chapter 96

Xiao Ming immediately went up with a full smile to coax it, but the sweet words did not immediately dispel the little guy's resentment. It still pouted, "Ei yo ei yo," complaining, its big round eyes brimming with tears, almost ready to flow down.

"It's the master's fault, see, the master apologizes to you, all of these are yours." Chu He piled three bottles of low-grade Peiyuan Pills in front of it.

"Ya hu!" Because it had never seen the master give so many low-grade Peiyuan Pills before, it let out a loud cheer, immediately discarding the empty bottle and tightly hugging the three bottles of low-grade Peiyuan Pills. (Actually, it was just one more bottle than before, but its little head was too hungry to think clearly.) As for the grievances and complaints, they were instantly forgotten, replaced by joy and gratitude.

However, its little hands were not long enough to hold all three bottles at once. After holding two, the third bottle would always roll away, and it couldn't hold all three porcelain bottles together.

Seeing it busy but repeatedly failing, Chu He had to reach out, take one bottle, open it, and feed it, while educating it: "Isn't this better? Little fool."

"Da da!" It tightly held one bottle of pills with one little hand, its cheeks bulging as it chewed, but its face was full of happiness and satisfaction.

Seeing it become happy and no longer upset, Chu He sat down beside it and started sorting through the few storage rings he had obtained. Previously, he was too eager to break through and had no mood to check the spoils. Now that he had successfully broken through and had nothing to do, he began to organize them one by one.

He obtained a total of three storage rings, which contained some magical artifacts, mostly high-grade, but they were all strange and peculiar, almost all designed to be used with poison techniques. Only one Shadow Cloak was more to Chu He's liking.

The Shadow Cloak was a high-grade magical artifact, containing five talisman arrays: Wind Riding, Air Control, Spirit Gathering, Essence Transformation, and Concealment. Among these, Wind Riding, Air Control, and Concealment were mid-grade talisman arrays. Using this cloak, Chu He's speed could be significantly increased, whether in battle or escape.

The most valuable item was the gray light magical artifact obtained from the "Law Master." The original form of this magical artifact was a whip, which was much darker and smaller compared to the Greenwood Thunder Whip he had seen before, and it looked less impressive.

The surface of this magical artifact had a highly toxic gray light. Even though Chu He used his spirit essence to carefully examine it, the toxic light still managed to seep in. Fortunately, he had the Cleansing Fire protecting him, or he would have been poisoned.

What a powerful magical artifact! Even without activation, it was so powerful. Chu He felt fortunate: If he hadn't had the Cleansing Fire, he would have been poisoned during the battle with its owner.

Hehe, no matter how powerful you are, in my eyes, you're just a pile of high-grade spirit stones.

In addition to the magical artifacts, there were some Five Poison Liquids and a couple of sets of array flags, as well as Peiyuan Pills and spirit stones.

The Five Poison Liquids were likely used by the disciples of the Poison Sect to cultivate the Five Poison Technique, and the array flags were of low grade and only had the function of illusion and concealment. These two items naturally made it onto Chu He's list of things to sell.

Chu He became happier the more he counted: Indeed, wealth comes from taking risks, and one cannot become rich without unexpected gains!

However, these items only made Chu He happy for a moment. What he was most concerned about were the two small unnamed fragments, which he took out and examined one by one.

The larger fragment, obtained from the tall and thin cultivator, was about the size of a fingernail, and the smaller one was only half the size of the larger one.

The intricate talisman patterns on the fragments far exceeded his knowledge. They did not even reveal any of the five elements, and his spirit sense could not penetrate them at all. He examined them for a long time but gained nothing. However, he could tell that the talisman patterns on both fragments were high-grade, and some might even be top-grade.

Holding both fragments, he could feel a faint mutual attraction between them.

Chu He had a sudden idea and brought them together.

Suddenly, a strange change occurred!

A faint light appeared at the edge where the two small fragments touched, and the fine talisman patterns began to shine and move. Instantly, the two fragments seemed to turn into two drops of boiling water, with layers of talisman patterns glowing and rolling.

In just a moment, the two fragments merged into one, forming a thumb-sized circular fragment. The dullness of the fragments was gone, and they became somewhat silver-white.

"Wow!" The little guy saw this and opened its mouth wide in surprise.

So it can be like this, with an automatic repair function. It seems that as long as I find the remaining fragments, I won't have to worry about restoring the original form of this spirit treasure. Chu He was greatly surprised, but then he thought it wouldn't be easy: Even if the spirit treasure is very small, it would still require thousands of such fragments to complete. It's really hard to say when this will be accomplished.

Chu He put aside this urgent thought, tidied up his things, and waited for the little guy to finish eating before going out.

After being in seclusion for a while, it was time to go out and breathe some fresh air. Besides, he needed to go to the market to sell those miscellaneous items and replenish his talismans. After several intense battles, his supply of mid-grade talismans was running low.

Compared to other areas, the southern part of the town was quiet, with pleasant streets and scenery.

He hadn't walked far when someone called out from behind. Turning around, he saw Lu You.

He saw Lu You running over quickly, saying, "Why didn't you call me, Junior Brother Chu? I could have shown you around."

As he got closer, he smiled and congratulated Chu He on his advancement in cultivation.

Although they weren't very familiar, Lu You was so considerate and enthusiastic that Chu He felt a bit embarrassed, quickly apologizing.

Lu You waved his hands forcefully, saying it was too much, and then, upon hearing that Chu He wanted to go to the market, he volunteered to be the guide.

Chu He had a thought and handed over the items he wanted to sell to Lu You, instructing him to be extremely careful with the toxic light of the magical artifact.

Taking the storage ring from Chu He, Lu You's spirit sense entered and examined the contents, and he was immediately stunned and greatly surprised. Then, he remembered that Xuan Bing had come with him, and he understood.

At the same time, he thought: Uncle Xuan Bing indeed treats him differently, even giving him these valuable spoils as a favor.

In the storage ring, besides some items from the Poison Sect, there were several high-grade magical artifacts suitable for poison techniques and one magical artifact. Lu You naturally believed that Xuan Bing had given these to Chu He. Given Chu He's previous cultivation at the 7th level of the Qi Condensation stage, he couldn't believe these were Chu He's spoils.

As everyone knew, only those who had reached the Innate stage could use high-grade magical artifacts, and to control a magical artifact, one needed to be at the upper stage of the Innate realm. A 7th-level Qi Condensation cultivator killing an Innate cultivator? Impossible! Not to mention an upper-stage Innate cultivator who could control a magical artifact!

"Junior Brother Chu is about to make a fortune! I will handle these properly, and they should be sold within a few days." Lu You patted his chest and guaranteed.

Qing Ling Town was very bustling, with the Request Tower, magical artifact shops, and auctions held every few days, making it easy to sell these items.
