Chapter 874: Chapter 861: Golden Jade Slip

Ye Zhen’s first glance into the Red Moon Soul Ring revealed a ground full of black ash!

Even though he knew this would be the result, Ye Zhen still felt a pang of heartache.

These black ashes were all those Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that slowly turned to ashes over the long river of time, especially the plant-based ones.

The interior of the storage ring is almost a vacuum, but only almost. A Spiritual Medicine placed there for several years would still appear lifelike.

However, ten thousand years is too long a time. Even though the storage ring is vacuumed, and it contains the aura emitted by various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, the passage of time has turned those that are difficult to preserve into ash.

Including those hundreds of bottles of seemingly very precious pills, they all turned into ash.

Maybe the Earth Core Fire Commander thought it wouldn’t take hundreds of years to find a Martial Arts Inheritor, so he didn’t apply other protective restrictions on those precious pills. But unexpectedly, this lasted ten thousand years!

All of the pills, their jade bottles intact, turn into piles of colorful powder the moment they’re opened.

Eventually, what ended up in Ye Zhen’s hands were all sorts of mineral-based, bead-stone-based Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can be stored long-term.

Yet even these gave Ye Zhen a pang in his heart.

After most of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures in the storage ring were destroyed, those that remained totaled over a thousand kinds, the worst of which was that Ye Zhen didn’t recognize any of them!

No, to be accurate, Ye Zhen recognized one among them!

Xuanshuang Sand!

A very rare Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure in the True Spirit Domain, it’s a precious material for refining Spiritual Artifacts. Adding a tael or two of Xuanshuang Sand during the refining process can exponentially increase the communication ability between Heavenly Materials and Martial Artist’s Divine Soul, thus greatly enhancing their power.

If a Low Grade Spirit Artifact can have a tael or two of Xuanshuang Sand, its power could increase by more than fifty percent, possibly even enabling it to rival average Mid-grade Spirit Artifacts, making it extremely valuable!

This was something Ye Zhen saw on the Super Reward List published by Stars Tower; a tael of Xuanshuang Sand was priced at fifty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, or it could be freely exchanged for an item of equal value!

A tael, indeed!

However, within the Red Moon Soul Ring, where a tael in Stars Tower is worth fifty thousand Mid-grade Spirit Crystals, Xuanshuang Sand was piled up like a small hill!

Ye Zhen estimated that there are tens of thousands of pounds of Xuanshuang Sand in the Red Moon Soul Ring!

Tens of thousands of pounds of Xuanshuang Sand!

If sold all at once, Ye Zhen estimates that the entire wealth of the True Spirit Domain would not be enough to exchange for it.

Of course, Ye Zhen isn’t foolish; selling even a hundred pounds of this Xuanshuang Sand would absolutely cause its price to plummet to an unimaginable degree in no time!

However, as long as Ye Zhen sells them in small batches, it would undoubtedly be a massive fortune.

What’s astonishing is that this Xuanshuang Sand is the most ordinary and abundant among the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that Ye Zhen recognized in the Red Moon Soul Ring.

Ye Zhen didn’t recognize any of the others, let alone know their value.

Anyway, those with the least quantity are surely the most valuable!

Within the Red Moon Soul Ring, those with only one piece number over ten; among them, the smallest one is only fist-sized but emits bright silver starry glimmers around its black surface!

Though this stone appears to be only fist-sized, its weight cannot be imagined.

Ye Zhen’s Divine Sense couldn’t move it out of the Red Moon Soul Ring!

This sight nearly made Ye Zhen’s eyes pop out in shock!

Due to its construction, using Divine Sense Power to retrieve items within the storage ring is very easy.

Not just someone like Ye Zhen with powerful Divine Soul Cultivation, even those in the Spirit Summoning and Spirit Transformation Realms can easily take in and out several hundred thousand to millions of pounds of heavy items!

With Ye Zhen’s power, he could easily retrieve billions of pounds of heavy items from the storage ring, equating to tens of thousands of tons.

But in front of him, this inconspicuous black stone, Ye Zhen couldn’t move it; at this weight of fist-sized black stone, its terror is unfathomable!

Ultimately, Ye Zhen had to infuse almost all his Divine Soul Power into the Red Moon Soul Ring to barely shift this black stone a little.

Yet just this move consumed two-tenths of Ye Zhen’s Four-colored Innate Soul Light instantaneously, scaring him from even moving the black stone out of the Red Moon Soul Ring for fear it wouldn’t be retrievable!

Ye Zhen estimated that if given the chance, throwing this thing out with just its weight could be sufficient to kill several Kings of the Establishment Realm!

And this black Silver Star stone is merely one among the thousand unrecognized Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures within the Red Moon Soul Ring, Ye Zhen reckoned that each unknown material here might be more precious than the Xuanshuang Sand!

Besides, many of these Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures exist in fairly large amounts!

The wealth bestowed by the Earth Core Fire Commander upon Ye Zhen is likely immeasurable, and might provide Ye Zhen enormous support once the appropriate opportunity arises in the future.

With Divine Sense continually activated over several breaths, a thick layer of ash was swept away, having emerged from excessive gray ash from transformed Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, which Ye Zhen cleared up.

Upon clearing the ashes, as Ye Zhen was withdrawing his Divine Sense, he suddenly discovered a golden jade slip in a corner!

Previously, this golden jade slip must’ve been covered by the ash transformed from Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, and Ye Zhen hadn’t noticed it, and this golden jade slip is the only one he found among the Earth Core Fire Commander’s left behind inheritance!

"Congratulations, my disciple, if you’ve seen this golden jade slip, it means you’ve completed the Martial Arts Inheritance and inherited the martial arts of this old man!

After obtaining this old man’s inheritance, are you happy? Does it help diminish some of your anger from being subjected to my Heart Inquiry Lock Restriction?

Be open-minded, only through effort can one gain!

This old man’s martial arts and legacy won’t be given away freely; avenging an old man’s beloved can be considered a return favor!

If these inheritances still do not make you willingly my disciple, this Mystic Sky Refining Technique shall indeed make you willing!

Remember, any martial artist training in Fire Element Techniques, if not practicing artifact refining or alchemy, is wasting the power of the flame! Especially the flame cultivated from pursuing the Impermanence Mysterious Fire Scripture, it’s a perfect tool for refining or alchemy!

However, one’s energy is limited, this old man is specialized in the way of artifact refining, so I’ll impart this Mystic Sky Refining Technique encapsulating my lifetime’s experience to you.

Back in the day, this old man swiftly traversed the world and ranked high among the Human Clan within eight hundred years, this Mystic Sky Refining Technique was crucial, hopefully, it will aid you....."

The Divine Sense remaining within the jade slip made Ye Zhen feel some emotions suddenly.

Though the act of imposing Heart Inquiry Lock by the Earth Core Fire Commander was excessive, it was out of desperation.

Putting those aside, they indeed genuinely treated this Martial Arts Inheritor after ten thousand years sincerely!

Just when Ye Zhen intended to immerse his Divine Sense into the jade slip of Mystic Sky Refining Technique for detailed reading, a deafening roar suddenly echoed beside his ears!
