Chapter 22: Maternal love is universal
“It’s a Spatial Ring?”
Qin s.h.i.+ trembled.
He had only heard about this thing. It was a convenient ring containing a small dimension within it where it was capable of holding things inside.
However, these kinds of rings were very expensive. There wasn’t a single one of them to be found in Desolate Town. Only the great families of a huge city or someone with powerful connections had these rings.
Qin s.h.i.+ was excited as he thought this, a golden gleam flas.h.i.+ng in his eyes.
Shu Zhong Yu curled her lips, saying coldly, “Country b.u.mpkin, a single spatial ring is enough to make you so happy. You really don’t have any future prospects!”
Qin s.h.i.+ didn’t bicker with her and stared at the spatial ring with fixed eyes.
“I have nothing more to say!” She was angry. Ignoring Qin s.h.i.+, she quietly operated her spiritual power and enveloped the spatial ring with it. Erasing the soul imprint on it, she said, “Send your psychic power inside and this ring will become yours.”
“Really?”
Qin s.h.i.+ was exalted. He grabbed the spatial ring and sent his psychic power inside it.
Actually, he was stupefied at the very moment he took a look inside the spatial ring. There were several thousand boxes of gold coins, hundreds of low grade spirit stones and different kinds of spirit gra.s.s as well as all sorts of rare treasures.
“I-I’m r-rich!”
Qin s.h.i.+ licked his lips, saying excitedly, “Even several hundred years of our Qin Family’s savings wouldn’t compare to this wealth. Moreover, I can easily break through to the 6th Layer of Spirit Tempering Realm using these spirit stones.”
Spirit stones. They were stones which had spiritual power within them.
They are divided into four grades: Low grade, Medium grade, High grade and Top grade.
Spirit stones are an indispensable treasure for cultivators. Many of them prepared a huge amount of spirit stones at the time of breaking through in order to overcome the shackles of their bottlenecks. Therefore, because of their vast importance, something like murder was a common occurrence when dealing with spirit stones.
Generally speaking, 1 low grade spirit stone was equal to 100 gold coins. 1 medium grade spirit stone was equal to 100 low grade spirit stones. 1 high grade spirit stone was equal to 100 medium grade spirit stones. As for top grade spirit stones, they were priceless.
Top grade spirit stones were often located at the spirit ore’s core.
Several thousands of low grade spirit stones could be produced from a single top grade spirit stone. It’s value can be clearly understood from this fact alone. Once, there was there was such a saying circulated in Blazing Flame Empire, “Possessing 1 top grade is equal to having wealth equivalent to that of an entire country.”
These words were genuine.
“It’s really unexpected that a single outer circle disciple of Burning Sky Sect could be so rich!” Qin s.h.i.+ felt envious in his heart as he thought, “It seems that the Burning Sky Sect is really worthy of being known as the most powerful sect of Blazing Flame Empire’s North Region. Naturally, they will sooner or later…”
A ruthless light flashed through Qin s.h.i.+’s pupils.
“Hey – What is this?” Coming back from his excited state, he suddenly discovered a cracked and rusted bronze sword in a dark corner of the spatial ring.
“Cracked profound tool?”
Shu Zhong Yu was shocked when she laid eyes on this bronze sword.
“Cracked profound tool?” Qin s.h.i.+ blinked and asked curiously, “Older sister Yu, this cracked profound tool is what kind of thing?”
Shu Zhong Yu didn’t reply. Rather, she placed her hand on top of it and operated a minuscule amount of spiritual power, adhering it on top of the bronze sword. After some time, the bronze sword started to tremble and released a buzzing sound.
“It’s really like this! This bronze sword is a profound tool. Merely, it’s a pity that this sword is cracked and is almost the same as sc.r.a.p.” Shu Zhong Yu evaluated the bronze sword and shook her head with regret while saying, “Otherwise, you could have used it.”
Qin s.h.i.+ was also disappointed. “Sc.r.a.p?”
Shu Zhong Yu giggled after seeing Qin s.h.i.+’s depressed expression and said, “However, if we can find a fire attribute desolate beast’s blood essence for this fire category sword, recovering this profound tool’s body is a simple matter.”
“Really?”
Qin s.h.i.+ recovered his vitality, saying with an excited face, “Profound tool? If I am able to find a fire attribute desolate beast, then I will be able to obtain a profound tool? Heaven indeed wants to help me; the firmament is also generous to me.”
“Firmament! Great Earth! How should I thank you?”
Qin s.h.i.+ directly kowtowed three times and showed his respect five times towards the heavens in his excited state since he was unable to find another way to express his happiness.
Shu Zhong Yu calmly tossed out these two words when she saw this scene, “Country b.u.mpkin!”
Qin s.h.i.+ ignored Shu Zhong Yu and kissed the sword two times, then, he turned about and walked towards the mountain depths, saying, “There are only a few days left before the ancient hidden dimension opens. It would be great if I could find a fire attribute desolate beast to recover the bronze sword by then.”
He will definitely do the things he was determined to do; therefore, he went along the mountain path near Desolate Town to find it.
There were many desolate beasts within these mountain woods. However, most of them were of the earth and wood attribute. Qin s.h.i.+ had already killed over 10 desolate beasts along the way and his spiritual power had also progressed due to the evil spirit totem’s devouring ability.
No matter how much he searched, though, fire attribute desolate beasts proved to be very rare.
Three days flashed by in a blink but Qin s.h.i.+ hadn’t encountered even a single fire attribute desolate beast. This made him curse in anger, “To h.e.l.l with it! I’ve already seen over a hundred desolate beasts during these three days, and even met with gold, wood, water and earth attribute’s desolate beasts, but why isn’t there even a single fire attribute desolate beast here?”
“s.h.i.+’tou, can I scold you?” Shu Zhong Yu suddenly floated out.
Qin s.h.i.+ was startled. “Older sister Yu, why do you want to scold me?”
