Chapter 161: Chapter 114: Mountain-eating Toad, Hiding Object Bag_2

“Junior Sister, how does one obtain this storage bag?”
Xu Yan asked excitedly.
“Senior Brother, as of now, only the Tianbao Pavilion is capable of creating storage bags, and they are extremely expensive, so much so that even common Great Grandmasters can’t afford them.”
Su Lingxiu looked at her two excited senior brothers with a touch of helplessness.
“Storage bags are difficult to create and very rare. They are made from a rare Inner Domain spiritual frog, the Mountain-swallowing Toad, and supplemented by Yunhuan silk.”
“The Mountain-swallowing Toad is only the size of a fist, but it has a unique ability to swallow an entire small mountain. The storage bag is made from the Mountain-swallowing Toad, and hunting them down is not an easy task, let alone finding one…”
According to Su Lingxiu, the storage bag was made from the spiritual frog, the Mountain-swallowing Toad. Although the size of the toad is only fist-sized, it can swallow an entire small mountain.
Although it sounds a bit exaggerated, there is no problem swallowing a rockery several feet high.
The Mountain-swallowing Toads are rare and prefer to inhabit swamps, making them difficult to hunt. Even a Great Grandmaster, if careless, could be swallowed and suffer certain death.
In addition to the Mountain-swallowing Toad, Yunhuan silk is also extremely expensive.
Items woven from this silk can expand and shrink hundreds of times at will.
“It is rumored that Tianbao Pavilion has methods to detect and capture Mountain-swallowing Toads. So far, only the Tianbao Pavilion sells them, but the price is prohibitively high.”
Su Lingxiu also had a longing expression on her face.
She too wanted a storage bag.
With this bag, it would be much more convenient to carry Spiritual Medicine and Pill Furnaces.”
“It’s said that the Seven-star Study Palace can also create storage bags, but they lack the method to track down Mountain-swallowing Toads. Catching one is not an easy task, they are almost impossible to find.”
Because they are so rare, very, very few people can actually afford to use a storage bag.
Li Xuan nodded quietly, the storage bag, with the ability to hold items far more massive than the size of the bag itself, is special due to the properties of the Mountain-swallowing Toad, not due to the subtleties of artifact refining.
It’s not about mastering the method of creating spatial artifacts.
Even Xie Lingfeng, a genius of the Sword Sect, doesn’t have a storage bag, which indicates how precious these bags are.
“In the Inner Domain, if you come across someone with a storage bag, don’t doubt it, their background is astonishing. If it’s possible to avoid offending them, try your best not to!”
Su Lingxiu seriously advised.
“Don’t worry, Junior Sister, I understand.”
Xu Yan nodded, but he was thinking about how he could get a storage bag.
Meng Chong had the same thoughts.
“Junior Sister, list the spiritual medicines you need, and 1 will try my best to collect them for you.”
Xu Yan solemnly replied.
“Please wait, Senior Brother. I will make a list of the required spiritual medicines.”
Su Lingxiu nodded joyfully.
Returning to her room, she picked up a pen and began to write.
In her Dan Medical Treasure Scripture, she had created several new alchemy formulas in recent days, all of which required testing with spiritual medicine.
The types of spiritual medicine are varied and have different properties. Some even contain toxicity.
“Senior Brother, this is the list of spiritual medicines.”
Su Lingxiu handed the completed list to Xu Yan.
Xu Yan took a look and committed all the medicines listed to memory, then handed it to Meng Chong, saying, “I will leave for the Inner Domain now. Junior sister, wait for me to return with the spiritual medicines.”
He couldn’t wait any longer.
“Senior Brother, please wait a moment, let me prepare some healing pills for you to take.”
Su Lingxiu hurriedly spoke.
“Pili medicine?”
Xu Yan’s eyes lit up, the pill medicine should be worth a lot, right?
“Senior Brother, there are no pill medicines in the Inner Domain. Just as Master said, if the value is high enough, even Tianbao Pavilion will resort to underhanded methods.”
Su Lingxiu said seriously.
“I understand; the pill medicines cannot be sold.”
Xu Yan nodded solemnly.
Tianbao Pavilion is incredibly powerful, and he didn’t want to be hunted down by them due to pill medicine just after arriving in the Inner Domain.
“When I break through to the Tongxuan Realm, 1 won’t have to worry so much. With one palm, I could explode a Great Grandmaster; then let’s see who dares to covet!”
Xu Yan thought to himself.
“Senior Brother, the pill medicine I’m going to prepare for you will be used for healing and detoxification. However, the only medicinal ingredient used for refining the pill is Water Spirit Grass, so the effects will be slightly impaired.
“But it’s also stronger than most of the healing medicines in the Inner Domain. As long as you don’t tell anyone, outsiders will think it’s nothing more than those pills from the Inner Domain. No need to worry about exposing the pills.”
Su Lingxiu said as she was refining the pills.
“Little sister, don’t worry. I got it.”
Xu Yan nodded.
After refining two bottles of pills, Xu Yan kept one and gave the other to Meng Chong, saying, “Little brother, you are also heading to the Inner Domain. There’s not much Water Spirit Grass left, and little sister needs to cultivate. It’s pointless to refine more healing pills. One bottle of mine will suffice.”
Meng Chong took the pills and said, “Big brother is right, we should save the Water Spirit Grass for little sister’s refining of Evergreen Bones!”
Su Lingxiu’s eyes were red. Ever since they had fled from danger, she had not felt this much warmth and protectiveness from anyone.
“Thankyou, brother!”
Xu Yan knelt in front of their master and said, “Master, I am going to the Inner Domain. Do you have any instructions?”
Watching his eldest disciple, Li Xuan was filled with emotion, recalling the scenes of when Xu Yan from the small mountain village became his disciple and diligently started his cultivation.
Among the three disciples, he cared for Xu Yan the most and had the highest hopes for him. The exploration of martial arts was entirely dependent on this eldest disciple.
Now, Xu Yan was going to venture into the Inner Domain.
“My disciple, always remember, arrogance and contempt are the traits of a fool. A real Martial Artist is diligent and eager to learn. When you go to the Inner Domain, learn as much as you can, observe, and gain insights. Do not dismiss it as a false martial arts pathway, thinking it has nothing to offer.
“This kind of mindset is unacceptable. Be eager to learn, take the essence, integrate it into your own way, and innovate.
Lastly, safety first. If you encounter an enemy, kill if you can, flee if you cannot. There’s no shame in it. Only a fool will insist on fighting a losing battle.
“If surrounded by strong enemies, understand how to make strategic concessions…”
Li Xuan said all this in a stream of consciousness.
“Meng Chong, keep all that in mind.”
He then looked at Meng Chong and said.
“Yes, Master!”
Meng Chong replied respectfully.
“Master, I will remember your teachings!”
Xu Yan respectfully knocked his head three times on the ground.
Standing up, he patted Meng Chong’s chest, saying, “Little brother, I’ll wait for you in the Inner Domain!”
“Alright!”
Meng Chong strongly nodded in agreement.
Xu Yan looked around, then turned his gaze to the Red Cat lying next to Shi’er.
He sighed internally, this Red-Eyed Tiger was far more formidable than the one he had killed.
“The Red-eyed Tigers and Fire-maned Wolves in the Demon Forest were arranged by the Master.”
Xu Yan was moved. After he became a disciple, the Master had been paving the way for his cultivation journey.
Leaping into the air, he disappeared into the horizon, heading straight for the Inner Domain.
Meng Chong, Su Lingxiu and the others looked up, but Xu Yan’s figure was already gone.
“Master, I am going to practice!”
Meng Chong said, his gaze firm. He headed up the hill, continued to understand the Great Solar Gold Body, striving to breakthrough as soon as possible.
Su Lingxiu started cultivating in earnest, she was somewhat impatient to return to the Inner Domain, where she could truly practice her martial arts!
“I must succeed in refining Evergreen Bones!”
Her gaze was resolute.
Li Xuan took a deep breath, looking towards the endless mountains. His eldest disciple had gone to venture into the Inner Domain, when would it be his turn?
“After Su Lingxiu breaks through to Innate? It’s also about time for the Border
Area to pass down the Martial Arts.”
Li Xuan silently thought to himself.
He walked over to the Red Cat and stroked its head, mumbling, “You’ve gotten fat, this big body of yours takes up quite a bit of space. Should I stew you?”
The Red Cat’s eyes were filled with fear. It lowered its head and kept rubbing against his leg, making a low, pleading sound.
Li Xuan forced a smile, “You do seem to have some intelligence. Alright then, I’ll teach you the Grand Sorcery. Whether you understand it or not is completely up to you!”
“Having eaten the waste pill, you should have learned to accumulate medicinal power and strengthen your body. Moreover, your body has its owntreasuress; if you can comprehend this, shrinking, growing as you wish should be within your capabilities…”
As Li Xuan spoke, he pointed out various places on the Red Cat’s body, recalling the videos and pictures of beast acupuncture points he had seen in his previous life, pointing out all he remembered on the Red Cat’s body.
“I’ll just point these out to you. The rest you have to find and explore on your own. If you can open these acupoints and cultivate Divine Skills and transformations, that would be your own fortune.”
As for whether the Red Cat could understand or not, Li Xuan didn’t care, it was all up to its own fortune.
He was just testing it out because he felt that the Red Cat seemed to have some intelligence..
