Conquer the game world

Chapter 109 Mysterious Box
"I...I actually died at the hands of a Spirit Form Warrior." The middle-aged man's eyes were filled with resentment. He lay on the ground and reached out to touch the long sword on the ground, but at this moment he could no longer hold on. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, his body went limp.

It's a pity he didn't know that he died because of his own paranoia. If he had acted decisively against Ye Feng back then, Ye Feng would never have had the chance to kill him.

Perhaps this is fate. He, who was always scheming and cautious, plotted to poison the middle-aged man with the stick. But in turn, his scheming and caution were used by Ye Feng, ultimately leading to his own death.

"That was close." Ye Feng dragged his heavily injured body to his feet, and only after confirming that the middle-aged man was completely dead did he feel relieved.

Ye Feng took out the red bottle from the package and drank it. He then began to regulate his breathing and recover from his injuries. He had also suffered serious injuries from that attack.

Ye Feng didn't rest for long. He only recovered slightly from his injuries before getting up and taking the storage ring off the middle-aged man's body. This ring was the one that the middle-aged man had snatched from the man with the stick. Seeing how fiercely they were fighting over it, Ye Feng had already guessed that there must be something good inside.

It's a pity that this middle-aged man, after scheming for so long, ended up losing what he finally managed to snatch to Ye Feng before it even had a chance to warm up his hands.

Ye Feng also knew that the middle-aged man had been injured and his strength was limited, so he could not fully exert his abilities. Combined with Ye Feng's sneak attack, this was how he managed to kill the middle-aged man.

"Is the Spirit God Realm really that strong?" Ye Feng wondered to himself. If it weren't for the various coincidences, Ye Feng felt that even if he used 'Thunderfire Kill', he might not have been able to gain the upper hand.

At this time, the Spirit God realm was something Ye Feng could only look up to.

Ye Feng only glanced at the contents of the storage ring briefly before putting it away without examining it closely.

"Let's go and meet up with my senior brothers first. I'm sure they're all getting impatient," Ye Feng said. Without further hesitation, he took to the air, quickly determined his direction, and then flew off in one direction.

Ye Feng had been far from the agreed location for quite some time when he finally arrived near a small mountain. The mountain was covered in dense forest, making it a suitable hiding place, which was why they had initially agreed to wait there.

"Brother Ye Feng, you're finally back."

“I knew Brother Ye Feng was very strong, and with the ‘Swiftness Talisman’ in his possession, those golden griffins couldn’t do anything to him,” Baker said upon seeing Ye Feng return.

Xia Chuan and Xia Yong, who were standing nearby, also came up to greet him, and specifically asked if Ye Feng had encountered any trouble. After all, Ye Feng had returned quite some time after the agreed time. Although Baker said he didn't care, they had actually been worried about whether Ye Feng was in danger. Being surrounded by golden griffins was no joke.

Just as they were about to go out to search, Ye Feng finally returned.

"It's nothing, I just got a sudden urge and wandered around the area. I didn't expect to lose track of time." Ye Feng thought for a moment and decided to keep the fact that he had encountered a fight with a Spirit God warrior a secret. It wouldn't do him any good to talk about it, and it might even bring him a lot of trouble.

Ye Feng glanced at Wu Lan, who remained calm and composed, seemingly unaffected by the Golden Griffin's return. Wu Lan also refrained from speaking to Ye Feng upon his return.

Ye Feng smiled but didn't take the initiative to speak. Although Ye Feng dealt with the Golden Griffin with ease, he knew that it was because he flew with his own wings. And Wu Lan was able to deal with the Golden Griffin smoothly, which showed that she was stronger than him.

"By the way, how's your pearl chain fruit harvesting going?" Ye Feng remembered this and asked casually, even though he didn't really care.

"Haha, you and Sister Wulan really bought us a lot of time! This time we almost caught all the ripe pearl fruit in the mountains. I estimate there must be at least a hundred of them," Baker said happily. He hadn't planned to pick so many pearl fruit, but Ye Feng and the others had taken longer than expected, so the harvest was quite good.

Of course, Beck and his companions only picked the ripe Beaded Fruit. They wouldn't touch the unripe ones; there was no point in picking them, and they'd rather save them for later. Aside from the unripe ones, Beck and his group picked almost all the ripe Beaded Fruit, except for some that might have been hidden in the crevices of the rocks. "With so many Beaded Fruits picked this time, the reward will definitely be good," they said, their spirits lifting. After all, a bigger reward meant more medicinal herbs for later cultivation, making the subsequent cultivation much easier.

This is also the helplessness of most people. These people may be outstanding here, but compared with the entire Dongyang Kingdom, they are insignificant. The auxiliary pills issued by the sect are not enough for daily use. You should know that if they were born into the inner sect, they would be nourished by pills from childhood. Even if their talent is not good, they would still be stronger than them at this age.

After a brief discussion, the group hurried back to Yanluo Gate, as they had been away for quite some time and the distance to Yanluo Gate was considerable.

Several hours later, the group returned to Yanluo Gate. Ye Feng and the others left in the early morning and returned in the evening.

The group quickly handed over the pearl chain fruit and received their respective rewards. Including Wu Lan, Beck and the others all chose the pill reward, since pills were too important for their cultivation.

Ye Feng did not choose the reward. Although these pills were good, there were not many that could be exchanged for. Ye Feng knew that his body was a bottomless pit for pills, and this amount of pills was meaningless to him. After thinking about it, Ye Feng decided to temporarily exchange the reward for this mission for contribution points, which could be used to exchange for things in the future.

Another reason Ye Feng didn't choose to exchange for pills was that he planned to refine them himself. After the battle with the Spirit God Warrior, Ye Feng felt that his strength was still insufficient, and the fastest way to improve his strength right now was to consume pills. However, where could Ye Feng get so many pills? This made Ye Feng think of refining pills, and Ye Feng also planned to save his contribution points to buy materials later.

After bidding farewell to Baker and the others, Ye Feng returned to his residence. He took out the storage ring he had obtained from the Spirit God Warrior earlier that day. Because he had considered that Baker and the others were waiting for him, Ye Feng had not examined the storage ring in detail.

Now, Ye Feng injected his soul power into the storage ring and took a closer look. He then realized that this storage ring was definitely not a low-grade storage ring. Ye Feng knew about low-grade storage rings; the space inside those kinds of storage rings was very small, probably only about two square meters in size.

The storage ring in Ye Feng's hand has a space of at least twenty square meters. It should be noted that a storage ring is equivalent to creating a space for storing things, which requires the use of spatial laws. The larger the space created, the more difficult it becomes. After all, it is difficult to stabilize a created space. To stabilize a twenty-square-meter space is definitely more than ten times more difficult than a two-square-meter storage ring, and may even be a hundred times more difficult.

However, the twenty-square-meter storage space didn't hold many things. Most of the space was empty, almost completely bare. Ye Feng only noticed a small box in the corner.

Although there was only this small box inside the entire ring, Ye Feng had no doubt about the value of what was inside. After all, something that could cause two Spirit God warriors to fight to the death couldn't possibly be worthless.

Ye Feng took the box out of his storage ring. The box looked very ordinary, and he didn't know what kind of metal it was made of. However, when Ye Feng looked at the box, he felt a sense of dread. He felt his heart racing and his body trembling slightly, as if thousands of ferocious beasts were appearing before him.

"What exactly is this box? I only glanced at it, yet it gave me this feeling." Ye Feng quickly circulated the power within his body to calm himself down. He had been caught off guard just now, and a single glance at the box had given him a feeling of lingering fear and helplessness.

"Could this be something belonging to some powerful senior?" Ye Feng exclaimed in surprise. Only this explanation made sense, otherwise how could this box give him such a terrifying feeling?

Suppressing his excitement, Ye Feng circulated his true energy to form a defensive layer on his hand before carefully reaching out to open the box. After all, the box had given Ye Feng such a shocking feeling that he had to be cautious.

Ye Feng opened the box smoothly, without encountering the strange danger he had anticipated. Inside, he found only a few books, nothing else.

"The Soul-Cleansing Technique of Startling Clouds, The Power of Gods and Demons, and The Steps of Heavenly Wind" Ye Feng curiously flipped through the three books one by one. The box did not contain the world-shaking secrets Ye Feng had imagined. There were no peerless pills or peerless divine weapons, only these three secret manuals.

However, Ye Feng dared not underestimate these three manuals. He picked up one of them, "The Soul-Purifying Technique of Startling Clouds," and began to read its contents.

"I have recorded my life experiences in this book, leaving behind my insights on the path of cultivation, hoping that those who are destined to read it will carry it forward." Upon opening "The Soul-Purifying Technique of Startling Clouds," a line of words immediately caught Ye Feng's eye.
