326 DEPTHS OF MISTY-RIDGE
The huge pile of treasures in front of Li Meng looked quite enticing but he controlled his urges and began to inspect them one by one. Soon enough he had separated a pill of Qi stones and elemental stones. There was quite a big pile of elemental stone which had managed to restore Li Meng’s reserves.
The next pile was of pills of all kinds, including healing, Qi restoring, berserker, blood boiling among others. These pills were useless to LI Meng but could be sold for a good sum of money to the guilds. The next piles were of weapons including a few emperor rank weapons. He couldn’t believe that Li Xuanfa and Huang were carrying these things.
“I earned quite a bit in terms of weapons and money. I guess killing them was a good idea. I can’t wait to get the returns on my belongings.”
The next piles were formed of scriptures from the mercenaries as well as the forces from two groups. Most of them were general arts which would pay well, but he managed to find some core arts from either of the groups which if released could cause amotion. Especially LI Xuanfa and Huang’s ring.
Li Xuanfa’s Nine-Yin arts were present within his ring and Huang had the Emerald fire scripture within his. Li Meng was surprised that Huang didn’t use the emerald Fire scripture during any of his fights and concluded that he must not have a good mastery in it.
“What should I do regarding this Nine-Yin arts?”
“There must be some requirements to practice an art like this. For example, the Emerald Fire scripture requires the user to continuously devour Fire energy of any kind and increase his Qi as well as fire energy. It is crude scripture but quite effective even at higher levels. The Nine-Yin art seems to be godly, and not from this ne.”
“You mean to say that it came from some other ne of existence.”
“I am just pointing out the truth. No one on this ne could possiblye up with the Nine-Yin art. They would at least require a reference for the creation of this thing, and the only one who could create something like this are nes where Yin-energy is quite abundant.”
.....
“So should I learn it?” Li Meng came straight to the point.
“You don’t have a predominantly Yin-rted art in your arsenal. Your body has already amodated quite a several energies starting from Elemental, Hell-heaven, and normal Qi among others. I don’t think another type of energy would harm it given you cane up with a proper way to control it.”
“Which means either you start practicing it hard, or you find a suitable Yang rted art which is of the same quality as the Nine-Yin art. The two opposing energies will keep each other in check and you will be able to harness the power without any problem.” Li Meng considered it and decided to keep it for now.
He switched to the Emerald fire scripture. It was a powerful fire element art. He hadcked behind in collecting elemental art scriptures and his stock was outdated. He decided to gather up arts of simr strength to other elements. It would help his fire control and might even help in progressing his alchemy talent.
“I have heard that Emerald Amethyst Hall’s fire scripture is more profound in terms of cultivation than our Pill valley’s Fire tome. This is a great gain to my arsenal.”
“Should we get to the main course? Take out the ring which Li Xuanfa handed to you.” Li Meng brought the treasures within it out. The contents were a piece of paper that looked like a map, a ck steel te, as well as a record that had details regarding the operation.
“How can this be?” The Keeper spoke with a surprised voice.
“Did you find something?” Li Meng asked.
“The steel te is not something from this ne. It is formed of a mineral called Nether-Brazen Steel, which is only found in Hell and otherher energy ins. Given that the te is something from that location, I believe that the treasure must belong to an entity rted to that ce as well.”
Both the figures began to inspect the map carefully as they found that it was quite simr to the map of Misty valley with some deeper areas marked in it. This must be the path that leads to the treasure. Li meng beganparing the two maps, and finally formted the path which he needs to follow.
“The treasure must exist in the depths of the valley as that is the pce with the highest concentration of Yin energy. Who knows what the treasure might hold. We might have even strike dit rich.” Li Meng pointed to the Keeper. The Keeper nodded in agreement.
The Nether-ze steel was enough to pique his interest as its value was far superior to anything they had obtained so far. It was one of the resources that could facilitate the healing of the Crimson Lord artifact. He decided to support Li Meng as they ventured deep into Misty-Ridge.
The first few miles were easy for Li Meng, it was only when they began to approach the 20th mile that he started to feel a bit ufortable.
The cold energy here is quite pure. It is extremely beneficial for water and ice element cultivators. You should use this journey as a way to temper your water and ice element energy, making it purer and purer. Also, remember to rotate your fire energy to cleanse your body from time to time.”
“You will need to use the treasure from Huang’s ring, but it is not the time yet. F I have to say, it would take another half-day before we reach the region where the treasure will be a necessity. All of that could also be avoided if you are willing to train here. If my guess is correct, it would take you a month to adjust to the cold and not be affected by the inner region.”
“A month you say. But that would mean me getting less time to form the force I want to establish. What if Ibine training along with the armor?”
“The effect of training will be less, but you could easily approach the destination. I guess that is the option we are going with.”
Li Meng nodded and took fire armor out of the ring. This was the defensive treasure everyone was after.
