Chapter 145: Void Beast Rib, All Attribute Dao Weapon!
‘I consumed 10,000 units of energy to break through to the attribute realm, so I still have 10,780 units left.’
Xu Ning clicked on the Cold Flame Dual Source Scroll.
…
Consume 23,000 units of energy to advance the Cold Flame Dual Source Scroll?
Yes / No
…
‘I only need 23,000 units of energy to reach the common seal realm?’
Although 23,000 units of energy was a lot, it was still less than Xu Ning had initially expected.
The common seal realm was the watershed of the void realm, so Xu Ning felt that this would mean that it would take at least three times the energy needed to advance compared to what he needed when he advancing to the attribute realm, but now it seemed that the increase was only a little more than two times.
‘Just a little more than 10,000 units of energy… If I get some more lucky opportunities in this mystic realm, maybe I can advance to the common seal realm before leaving this mystic realm!’
Xu Ning’s eyes lit up.
In fact, in the past, Xu Ning would first use this energy to advance his secret techniques.
After all, the consumption of secret techniques was relatively lower. The remaining 10,780 units of energy was enough for Xu Ning to level up all four secret techniques.
However, after seeing Chen Xiaoyi’s strength, Xu Ning felt that it was more effective to conserve his energy and accumulate enough to break through to the common seal realm.
Xu Ning closed the Martial Arts Panel and continued to walk inside.
After taking a few steps, there was another stone door in front of Xu Ning.
This stone door looked much narrower and lighter than the previous one.
Xu Ning pushed open the door, revealing a secret room that was hundreds of square meters big. After walking in, flames appeared on the wall, lighting up the secret room.
Xu Ning walked in and looked around. He then saw two neat rows of demon beast bones in the secret room.
These bones were of various sizes; they looked complete, like it had just been taken out of specimens.
Xu Ning passed by each skeleton. He could still feel a terrifying aura from every single one.
‘If I take these skeletons out, the bones can definitely be refined into high-quality weapons.’
Xu Ning continued to walk forward. At the back of the secret room, there was a stone platform.
On the stone platform, there was a wooden frame, and on the wooden frame, there was a white rib bone that was cut in half.
“This is…”
Xu Ning leaned over and looked at it carefully.
The broken rib bone looked like an ordinary animal bone at first, unlike the other bones, which still had the residual powers of a demon beast.
But even so, Xu Ning knew that this rib bone was definitely not ordinary, otherwise it would not be placed here.
Xu Ning reached out his finger and gently touched the rib bone.
‘Wow!’
The moment Xu Ning’s finger touched the rib bone, a silver-white light suddenly burst out from it, turning into a shadow.
Immediately after, Xu Ning saw a blurry figure of a demon beast. He could see its head was expanding, with its mouth wide open. It then twisted space and swallowed everything around it.
This scene disappeared in an instant, but Xu Ning was still shocked.
‘This demon beast looks like Gray.’
Xu Ning had a complicated expression.
The wilderness of bone made Xu Ning think that this mystic realm was likely related to the Jifeng State Beast Tide 300 years ago.
And the demon beast phantom just now looked like the legendary void beast, the instigator of the beast tide.
‘The void beast was killed by Shi Fengxu 300 years ago… Is Gray a descendant of this void beast?’
Xu Ning thought back to the scene of Gray swallowing demon beasts.
It was very similar to the scene of the demon beast phantom swallowing everything around it.
‘After leaving the mystic realm, I have to find Gray.’
Xu Ning thought to himself.
Xu Ning carefully held the cold broken rib in his hand.
Xu Ning gently caressed it.
‘The toughness of this rib is comparable to a dao weapon, but it doesn’t have the power of a dao weapon.’
Xu Ning had checked out Xie Wenyue’s thunder longbow previously, so he had a rough understanding of dao weapons.
With that in mind, Xu Ning tried to pour a wisp of true qi into it.
Through his true qi, Xu Ning would be able to clearly understand its internal structure.
However, after pouring a wisp of true qi into it, Xu Ning did not feel any substance in this rib bone. Instead, Xu Ning sensed an empty space inside it.
“This is…”
Xu Ning’s eyes moved.
Xu Ning discovered that a separate space was hidden inside this rib bone!
The space was not big, only about ten cubic meters, but it was still extremely rare.
‘This rib bone must be the rib bone of the legendary beast!’
Xu Ning was certain of this.
The legendary void beast must have possessed terrifying void talent.
‘Maybe I can try interacting with the space in this rib bone.’
Xu Ning realized that this broken rib might be a treasure comparable to dao weapons.
Xu Ning casually took out a pill medicine from his waist. Afterwards, he clenched the rib bone and activated his true qi.
Immediately after, the pill medicine in Xu Ning’s palm disappeared, but a pill appeared out of thin air in the rib.
‘The space inside this rib can interact with the outside world. It has a storage function!’
Xu Ning smiled.
Before this, Xu Ning was wondering how to get the dao seal tablet at the entrance of the cave abode.
But with this space rib, this problem was immediately solved.
‘I wonder if I can store living creatures in this space.’
Xu Ning thought.
Ten cubic meters of space was enough for him to enter.
However, Xu Ning felt that he shouldn’t try this with his own body.
But there were no living creatures here…
Suddenly, Xu Ning remembered that he had a Thousand Source Bug hidden inside his belt.
After entering the mystic realm, except the time he was facing strong enemies, he was constantly recuperating. Xu Ning had almost forgotten about the Thousand Source Bug.
The Thousand Source Bug could provide 150 units of energy every month. Its growth rate was getting slowly outpaced by Xu Ning’s needs.
Xu Ning opened the hidden compartment on his belt.
There were close to ten Aura Crystals inside.
Xu Ning absorbed it, obtaining 90 units of energy.
Xu Ning took out the fat bug and placed it on his hand.
‘I’ll try it.’
Xu Ning activated his true qi and tried to send the Thousand Source Bug into the storage space of the rib bone.
However, just when the Thousand Source Bug was about to be sent in, Xu Ning suddenly felt the storage space in the rib bone trembling.
“I don’t think it’s possible.”
Xu Ning quickly stopped what he was doing.
He had a feeling that if he placed the Thousand Source Bug, the small storage space inside would collapse.
“Forget it.”
In the end, Xu Ning gave up on this idea.
If the space collapsed because of him being stubborn, the gains would not make up for the losses.
‘Let’s gather some demon beast bones and bring them out.’
After figuring out how to use the storage space, Xu Ning tore down a valuable-looking skeleton near him and stuffed it into the storage space.
These bones could definitely be exchanged for Pure Source Pills.
‘Is this everything in this cave?’
After storing the skeleton, Xu Ning placed the rib bone in front of his chest.
He walked around the secret room again, but he could not find any other resources.
‘A dao seal stone tablet, a rib bone that has a storage space, and more than 20,000 units of energy. This harvest this time is quite plentiful…’
Xu Ning was ready to return.
Click! Click! Click!
The stone platform where the rib bone was placed suddenly trembled.
Afterwards, the stone platform descended, revealing an underground entrance on the ground of the secret room. It looked like there was a secret passage below.
‘Let’s go in and take a look…’
Ever since he entered the cave abode, Xu Ning only had great opportunities and did not encounter any danger, so when he saw the secret underground passage, he was daring enough to go in and take a look.
Xu Ning walked into the underground entrance and continued down the stairs.
After walking for less than a minute, Xu Ning arrived at a smaller secret room.
There were only two weak light sources burning in the secret room that was less than ten square meters big.
In the corner of the secret room, there was a human skeleton. There was a long crack on this human skeleton.
Obviously, he had been injured when he was alive.
‘He should be the master of this cave abode, the dao realm master who left behind his inheritance here.’
Xu Ning already had a guess.
He thought about it, walked to the skeleton, knelt down and kowtowed three times.
The many benefits he received in this cave abode were all from this dao realm master.
‘If I’m not wrong, this dao realm master should have died in the beast tide 300 years ago.’
Xu Ning had a new guess about the history of this place and the entire mystic realm.?‘This mystic realm is likely to be an ancient battlefield 300 years ago. It was probably then turned into a mystic realm by a powerful senior…’
‘And the power senior might be the former overlord of State Jifeng, Shi Fengxu.’
Xu Ning had heard rumors that when Shi Fengxu killed the legendary void beast, he had a few helpers.
This skeleton might have been one of his helpers when it was alive, otherwise he wouldn’t have the rib bone of the legendary void beast.
As for the reason for his death, Xu Ning guessed that he had died from getting seriously injured in the fight against the legendary void beast.
Hence, before he died, he left this inheritance on the ancient battlefield of the beast tide.
“Thank you for the gift.”
Xu Ning whispered, then stood up.
Click! Click! Click!
The moment Xu Ning got up, a cracking sound suddenly came from the wall.
A stone brick fell from the wall, revealing a black metal bracer in the hole.
“This is…”
Xu Ning walked in front of it and took out the metal bracer.
“It’s a dao weapon!”
Xu Ning checked it out, but to no avail. “I just don’t know what kind of dao weapon…”
Xu Ning activated a wisp of true qi and poured it into the metal bracer.
Complicated silver-white lines appeared on the surface of the metal bracer.
Xu Ning felt the water and fire qi in his body moving at the same time.
‘This metal bracer can activate my dual attributes!’
Xu Ning’s pupils shrank.
He instantly realized that this metal bracer was not only a dao weapon, but also a dao weapon that covered all attributes!
When he was recuperating in the cave, Xu Ning and Xie Wenyue had talked about dao weapons.
Xie Wenyue told Xu Ning that there were two types of dao weapons: one of the types was ordinary dao weapons, and the other type were dao weapons that covered all attributes.
Ordinary dao weapons could be refined by ordinary dao realm masters, but they were only suitable for one type of attribute. Even dao realm masters who cultivate dual secret scrolls could not refine dual attribute dao weapons.
They could only refine two dao weapons with different attributes.
The other type of dao weapon could only be refined by a higher level dao realm master.
The refinement principle of this kind of dao weapon was different from ordinary dao weapons. After refining it, it would be compatible with all attributes and was unimaginably tough.
The value of a dao weapon of all attributes was incomparable to an ordinary dao weapon.
“Thank you, Senior…”
Xu Ning clenched his black metal bracer and bowed deeply towards the remains of the dao realm master.
After a long time, Xu Ning straightened his body and walked out of the secret room.
Xu Ning had obtained all of the inheritance in this cave abode.
Xu Ning decided to stop here and return back to the way he came.
On the way back, Xu Ning put the dao seal stone tablet into his storage space.
The black metal bracer had also been attached to Xu Ning’s forearm.
After the metal bracer was attached to him, it became extremely soft, as if he was touching top-grade silk.
‘With this dao weapon, I will have the confidence to defeat Chen Xiaoyi!’
Xu Ning’s desire for revenge grew.
After walking out of the cave, Xu Ning looked at the flowing magma above his head and activated the Flame Breath Bone Sutra.
‘Wow.’
A translucent red armor appeared on Xu Ning’s body.
‘Let’s see the power of this all-attributed dao weapon.’
Xu Ning did not stop pumping his true qi. After a few seconds, a faint silver light appeared on the surface of the black metal bracer.
The translucent armor on Xu Ning’s body suddenly condensed again, almost solid.
‘This metal bracer has a huge effect on my attributes!’
Xu Ning no longer hesitated and moved his body. He went past the transparent membrane above his head and entered the boiling magma.
The magma was hot, but with the armor covering his body, Xu Ning was not hurt at all.
Xu Ning was swimming towards the surface, and after 30 seconds, he emerged from the magma.
He stepped on the surface of the magma and jumped back onto the platform.
Xie Wenyue was still unconscious after being knocked out by the giant tiger demon beast.
As for the giant tiger demon beast, it was lying on the ground with its wings folded.
Its head drooped on the ground. Xu Ning stood in front of its head, looking very small.
Xu Ning’s shadow was reflected in the giant tiger demon beast’s eyes.
After seeing Xu Ning return, the giant tiger demon beast showed a satisfied look in its eyes.
“Thank you.”
Xu Ning nodded and thanked the giant tiger demon beast.
If it weren’t for the giant tiger demon beast, he wouldn’t have gained this lucky opportunity.
Whoosh!
After seeing Xu Ning come out safely, the giant tiger demon beast stood up and flapped its wings.
After staring at Xu Ning for a while, the giant tiger demon beast flew out of the volcano without looking back.
The huge force from its wings made the magma below surge again.
“Leaving just like that?”
Xu Ning looked at the giant tiger demon beast disappearing from his vision. He shook his head gently.
The giant tiger demon beast seemed to have completed some kind of mission and left.
Xu Ning sighed.
‘Shi Fengxu, a legendary void beast, Gray, a giant tiger demon beast, and a dao realm master’s inheritance… What is the connection between all of this…’
