Chapter 799 -36 Inventory Check

Looking back, although his initial intention was to find the sword casting secrets for his wife, he never expected to accidentally obtain the Shennong Cauldron instead.

Having traded the merits of recovering the Shennong Cauldron for the future protection of the Wan Xiang Immortal in the event of any unreasonable treatment, Luo Yan believes it to be quite a worthwhile deal.

After all, for his ultimate goal, gaining the highest trust within the sect is more important than anything else.

Among the five characters set up, Qiu Changtian and Wei Dongliu are the busiest due to the power struggles of their respective backers.

The situation of Ling Yunpo was originally much more perilous, but now with Su Jian emerging from seclusion and taking charge, his predicament has improved considerably.

Long Long’s side was originally quite relaxed, but now with the Eastern Emperor Realm’s wars igniting, he has become extremely busy.

Only Luo Yan, due to the Penglai Yuqing View’s lack of strength and not daring to make enemies everywhere, is the most leisurely in nurturing his health.

Everything is handled by his wife, no need for hands-on involvement like Qiu Changtian; nor is he criticized for not doing serious work like Wei Dongliu, which is truly comfortable.

After handing over the Shennong Cauldron to the sect, Shi Liuli does not mention anything about other treasures, which gives Luo Yan the perfect opportunity to study it.

First is the “Mortal World Through Ages” painting; this scroll comes with inbuilt illusion techniques and a secret spatial realm which can trap enemies within. Without a way to escape, they could only be at the mercy of others.

Considering that illusion techniques and spatial spells are quite scarce types of magic, the value of this magical treasure is not low. It’s a shame that it greatly overlaps with the functions of the Kunlun Mirror, and its artifact spirit is rather simple-minded; might as well let Liuli play with it!

Second is the Seven Treasures Giant Clam Pearl.

It must be said that the old dragon has quite an eye. Luo Yan, with his knowledge and experience, has indeed seen Giant Clam Pearls before, but never one of such fine quality.

It is white and bright, with lustrous pearl radiance, and upon injecting True Yuan and tossing it out, a faint halo of light emerges.

Once an enemy is enveloped by the light ring, their body becomes immobile, left to be slaughtered at will.

The only problem is that immobilizing the enemy requires consuming the True Yuan stored within the Seven Treasures Giant Clam Pearl.

The higher the cultivation realm of the opponent, the faster the True Yuan in the pearl will deplete. If it runs out, naturally, the pearl can’t continue immobilizing the opponent.

After carefully contemplating for a moment, Luo Yan realizes that with the robustness of his own True Yuan, within the Golden Core Realm he fears no enemy, but it would definitely not be sufficient against Nascent Soul Realm masters.

If facing a Golden Core True Person, the immobilizing effect of the Seven Treasures Giant Clam Pearl would certainly be very effective, but even without this treasure, using the Five Thunder True Law or the Five-colored Divine Light would instantly kill the opponent, so why bother immobilizing them?

And against Nascent Soul Elders, the pearl doesn’t have much use… In short, it is suitable for those cultivators who are average in strength within their own realm, effectively increasing their control methods, but for Luo Yan, it’s not of much use.

Might as well let Liuli play with it.

Thirdly, it’s the heart of a ten-thousand-year tree demon. After studying for a long time, Luo Yan finally draws a conclusion.

It’s for concocting medicine.

If it were before, he would probably have sold it directly to Penglai’s internal alchemists. But now, having copied the alchemy technique from the Shennong Cauldron, Luo Yan suddenly has the confidence to self-study… After all, this isn’t about stealing someone else’s cultivation tradition. It’s a cultivation technique recorded on the Shennong Cauldron, so self-study should be an option.

Elder Shi Ding is proficient in most artifact crafting techniques, but not so much in areas outside of artifact crafting. Why can’t I, Master Jingyun, surpass the blue (to be better than my master), integrating all the Penglai scholars’ various doctrines?

By then, the Heavenly Craft Workshop won’t be called “Heavenly Craft Workshop” anymore, let’s call it “Penglai Workshop”. Whatever Penglai has, my workshop will also have, and can teach everything – grand!

Luo Yan lets his imagination run wild for a while, then continues to inspect his gains.

Fourth is an elixir bottle, which was originally part of the old dragon’s storage bag.

After confirming there is no problem with it, Luo Yan opens the elixir bottle and discovers that inside there is a bottle of Dragon Blood Pill.

The so-called Dragon Blood Pill is an elixir refined from the essence blood of a dragon of ancestral level, similar in nature to the Phoenix’s Nine Revolutions Vermilion Phoenix Pill.

Those who take it must possess dragon clan bloodline; otherwise, most of the elixir’s potency would go to waste. Although Luo Yan does not have the dragon clan bloodline, Long Long does!

It’s really unexpected that in the cultivation world here, there is actually something that can help Long Long; this world is truly marvelous.

The fifth item is an old Taoist robe. Although it had been washed to the point of whiteness and bears many patches, it doesn’t appear filthy; instead, it’s clean and tidy.

According to the Kunlun Mirror’s scan, no trace of spiritual power was detected, as if it were truly just an ordinary Taoist robe.

But if it were truly an ordinary robe, why would the old dragon specially carry it with him? If it were some kind of silk stockings or underwear, it could be explained as the old dragon’s peculiar taste, but a Taoist robe… That truly makes no sense.

There must be a mystery to it!

Thinking so, Luo Yan planned to also put the Taoist robe into the Heavenly Craft Treasure Bag and carry it close to his body.

But on second thought, could it be that the old dragon also obtained it from someone and wondered why the other party carried it close, so he did the same?

If that is the case, how ridiculously vexing that would be for me!

Luo Yan didn’t bother with it and continued to study the sixth gain, which turned out to be a thin scripture.

This scripture is named “Ice Heart Manual,” a very unadorned title. Luo Yan flipped through it, finding the contents rather profound — teaching cultivators how to guard their Daoist Heart, avoid deviation, and, in case they do deviate, how to heal injuries of the Sea of Consciousness.

Speaking of this, Luo Yan suddenly remembered a black-robed Taoist from a distant island.

That Taoist, too, due to deviation, had to stay on the island, using the ice beneath the earth’s layer to slow the Heart Demon’s attack. Later on, he even imparted his teachings to Su Jian, sister-apprentice, and myself.

Perhaps this scripture could help him somewhat if given to him.

But the issue lies in: First, although the old man highly praised An Zhisu, for some reason he looked down on me, always scrutinizing with a critical eye, without a single word of kindness.

Helping that old man, Ling Yunpo does not find satisfaction in his heart!

Second, one day Ling Yunpo must steal or even seize the Heaven-Mending Stone fragments from Shushan, which means becoming an enemy of Shushan’s Sect Leader Su Jian.

Assisting such a sword immortal predecessor, who has significant ties with Su Jian, doesn’t seem like a necessarily good thing.

Third, with the old man’s poor impression of me, it seems unlikely that I could use this scripture to extract any benefits from him.

Forget it, let’s just set it aside for now!

Old man, blame yourself for looking down on others, offending your grandfather Ling Yunpo!

After placing the scripture into the Heavenly Craft Treasure Bag, Luo Yan turned his attention to the final item, the Eight Trigrams Mirror.

It was a bronze mirror with a bright and shining reflective surface at the center, surrounded by reliefs of the Eight Trigrams.

Luo Yan tried to channel True Yuan into it, and found the mirror’s surface gradually lighting up, emitting a great brightness.

But as for the use of this mirror light, he had no idea.

Additionally, the purpose of the surrounding Eight Trigrams pattern was also unknown.

After asking both the Kunlun Mirror and the Suming Sword, they claimed ignorance, suggesting it was likely a magical treasure that Shennong himself refined and never used publicly, hence its absence of renown.

With that being said, it can only be put away for now, to be used later.
