A Mortal's Journey to Immortality

Sure enough, Zhou Ping looked at the delicate light blue cloth bag in his hand and fell into deep thought.

After returning from the plaza on the first floor, he immediately retrieved the relics of the fourth ancestor of the Jin clan.

This exquisite cloth bag can now be confirmed to be the storage bag that Li Jiuxi mentioned.

Unfortunately, Zhou Ping didn't know whether to be happy or frustrated, because the storage bag in his hand was slightly different from the one he had just seen at Li Jiuxi's place.

This is a high-grade storage bag. Unlike low-grade storage bags, it not only has a much larger storage space, but it also has the original owner's divine sense sealed within it.

To unlock it, given his current cultivation level, it would probably take him quite some time.

According to Li Jiuxi, storage bags of this quality are usually only possessed by elite disciples of certain sects.

Low-level cultivators or independent cultivators like them would almost never be willing to use them.

After all, the value of a high-grade storage bag, depending on the size of its storage space, can fetch tens to hundreds of spirit stones if it appears at an auction house.

Its exorbitant price alone deters countless low-level cultivators.

I really don't know who these four ancestors of the Jin clan are, that they could possess such precious items.

Zhou Ping was naturally unaware that this storage bag was a gift given to Jin Wanxuan by a prominent figure from the Qinglian Xuanzong sect.

The battle puppet that remained with the Jin clan was stored in this object.

Ordinary, low-end storage bags don't have enough space to hold it.

Zhou Ping reluctantly put it down. Just now, he had tried to examine it with his spiritual power, or what Li Jiuxi called divine sense.

He discovered that the remaining divine consciousness power of Jin Wanxuan on it was already quite weak, but it would still take him more than ten days to completely erase it.

Fortunately, Jin Wanxuan was only at the late stage of Qi Refining. If it were a Foundation Establishment cultivator, with his current level of cultivation, erasing him would be out of the question.

"well......"

Zhou Ping sighed and reluctantly put it away. His cultivation level was still too low; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so troublesome.

After carefully placing the Blood Spirit Mushroom seedlings he had obtained from Li Jiuxi, he took out the mysterious agarwood that had already begun to emit light smoke and immediately began the process of stimulating its growth.

Two days later, Zhou Ping looked at the Blood Spirit Mushroom, which had been accelerated to a medicinal age of sixty years, with satisfaction and nodded slightly.

His plan was naturally to cultivate all the collected medicinal herbs to maturity before making any further moves.

Only in this way can he obtain enough spirit seeds, and he will no longer have to worry about the quantity of spirit herbs.

After calculating the time, Zhou Ping felt it was time to proceed with the next transaction with Li Jiuxi.

He took out some porcelain bottles containing Wulin Pills, and then deliberately took a few more bottles of Longxu Pills.

He wondered if Dragon Beard Pill could exchange it for some of the things he needed, since he couldn't reveal too much of the Crimson Scale Pill. If someone with ulterior motives took notice of it, it would be a disaster.

As for the low-grade storage bag in Li Jiuxi's hand, even after he knew that what he had was a high-grade item, he still planned to exchange it back.

For no other reason than the principle of not flaunting one's wealth.

Such a high-grade storage bag is far too valuable for someone like him, a mere cultivator who has just entered the mid-stage of Qi Refining.

If discovered, there will still be considerable danger.

The saying "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime" has become even more pronounced in the world of cultivation since he experienced the upheaval of the Jin clan.

A clan that has been secluded for hundreds of years can be raided by other cultivators simply because of the relics they possess. What could be more terrifying than that?

Therefore, upon discovering that the storage bag in his hand was a high-end item, Zhou Ping immediately abandoned the idea of ​​using it and instead began to consider how to hide this hot potato.

........

"Fairy Li, are you satisfied with these Black Scale Pills from Duan?"

Zhou Ping calmly watched Li Jiuxi examine the several bottles of pills in his hand, smiled slightly, and asked.

Li Jiuxi carefully put the bottles of pills into her storage bag, then raised her pretty face, which was covered by a thin veil, and answered with slight excitement.

"Young Master Duan is indeed a man of his word. The quality of these Black Scale Pills is top-notch. It was I who was worrying unnecessarily."

It turns out that Li Jiuxi has also been experiencing feelings of gain and loss these past two days.

The thought of obtaining a sufficient amount of Black Scale Pills in one go filled him with joy, but also made him worry.

She feared that the pills Zhou Ping would bring later would be of varying quality and might not all reach the level of the previous four.

Now it seems that she underestimated this young master Duan.

The quality of these pills was unexpectedly good; some of the Black Scale Pills even seemed to have a stronger effect than the first four.

This made her heart flutter. With these high-quality Black Scale Pills, her body-refining cultivation would undoubtedly become more secure.

"Young Master Duan, please keep this storage bag safe. I have explained in detail how to use it. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask Jiu Xi."

Li Jiuxi presented the storage bag with both hands, her pretty face full of joy.

Zhou Ping took the storage bag, inspected it briefly, and then put it into his pocket.

Just as he was about to speak again, Li Jiuxi across from him spoke softly before he could.

"I have observed that you, Young Master, frequently consume elixirs. I have a few spiritual herb seeds here that I would like to offer to you. I hope you will not refuse."

After speaking, three vibrant medicinal seed seeds appeared in his fair palm.

Zhou Ping watched this scene in surprise, somewhat confused, and asked in astonishment,

"What does Fairy Li mean by this? I cannot accept a reward without merit. How can I, Duan, accept your spiritual seed for nothing?"

"Young Master Duan, please don't be so quick to refuse. Let Jiu Xi explain slowly."

"To be honest, in this transaction between me and you, it was actually Jiu Xi who benefited from it. Although the value of the Black Scale Pill is relatively stable, it is still a rare item. If we really look at it carefully, you have undoubtedly suffered a slight loss."

"Therefore, I would like to make amends to Young Master Duan. These few spirit seeds are not very valuable, and together they are worth less than one spirit stone. Please do not refuse them, so that I can feel more at ease."

After Li Jiuxi finished speaking, a faint pleading look appeared in his eyes as he looked at Zhou Ping, which undoubtedly made the latter somewhat at a loss.

He touched his nose and had no choice but to wave his hand and put the spirit seed in the other person's hand into the storage bag he had just acquired.

Upon seeing this, Li Jiuxi finally showed a happy expression.

Zhou Ping was somewhat surprised to find that this Fairy Li was a person of great taste.

"Young Master Duan, if we cultivators take pills for many years, there will be more or less some pill toxins remaining in our bodies."

"What I am giving you, young master, are the seeds of the main ingredients for refining Qingling Powder. You only need to spend some years cultivating them to refine Qingling Powder, a spiritual medicine specifically used for detoxification."

"Although it cannot compare to a mature elixir, it is still a token of my sincerity."

After Li Jiuxi finished speaking, he quietly looked at Zhou Ping, who was surprised to find himself once again stunned.

"An antidote? Erysipelas?"
