Chapter 629: The Secret In the Cosmos Ring
After her breakthrough, Chi Shuyan took out the ring which Zhou Manqing had given to her. She circulated her spiritual energy and tried to break the seal. This time, Chi Shuyan was lucky and was just able to break it.
After the seal was broken, Chi Shuyan saw the black layer on the ring suddenly disappear to reveal the ring’s true appearance. The bright and translucent ring flashed with white light, and on the inside of the ring were the words: Cosmos Ring.
Chi Shuyan circulated her spiritual power and probed inside, only to find that this thing was also a storage space. At first, Chi Shuyan wondered if she had obtained a Sumeru Seed.
But what kind of treasure was a Sumeru Seed? How could it be so easy to obtain?
Chi Shuyan tried to flash inside. Since the seal was broken and she had removed traces of the previous owner, the seal no longer stopped her, and the ring was waiting for her to enter.
She saw that the space inside was about a few hundred square meters in size. It wasn’t big nor small, and was covered in thick, black earth. It wasn’t like what she had imagined at all.
Chi Shuyan wasn’t disappointed. She walked for a while and then came upon a thatched house.
Curious, Chi Shuyan went inside and saw a lot of scattered bamboo slips on dilapidated wooden shelves. She picked up a bamboo slip and flipped it open, only to see that it was empty.
Chi Shuyan tried to send some spiritual energy into the bamboo slip. Light flashed and white characters immediately appeared. Chi Shuyan took a serious look and realized that this bamboo slip was actually equivalent to an encyclopedia of spirit herbs. It contained explanations for all sorts of precious spirit herbs from the cultivation world. With thousands and tens of thousands of years as a foundation, they were all good materials for refining pills.
Chi Shuyan was very happy when she saw the descriptions and drawings.
But she then thought of how she hadn’t seen even a trace of a spirit herb on Earth. The most she had seen were medicinal herbs that were several decades old. Finding any over 100 years old was a little hard, let alone any that were 1,000 years old; she had never seen a 1,000-year-old spirit herb until now.
To refine good pills, 1,000-year-old spirit herbs were essential. She couldn’t get her hands on any at all, however, so Chi Shuyan could only try refining pills with 100-year-old spirit herbs. She barely succeeded, but ultimately, they could only be low-grade pills. Their medicinal effects were completely different from that of genuine spirit pills.
Because the herbs weren’t old enough, the refinement process occasionally didn’t succeed, and the herbs could only turn into spirit soup. It was obvious how important the age of the herbs was.
Chi Shuyan had the vague feeling that if she used genuine 10-million-year-old spirit herbs to refine Energy Recovery Pills and Spirit Gathering Pills, the concentration would be at least thousands of times higher than what had been tested at the Jing family’s auction house.
It was just a pity that the spiritual energy of Earth wasn’t dense, unlike in the cultivation world, where 10-million-year-old medicinal herbs were a dime a dozen.
Chi Shuyan wasn’t disappointed. She was already very satisfied that she could refine pills. She would let nature take its course and couldn’t be too greedy.
After confirming that this was a complete compendium of spirit herbs from the cultivation world, Chi Shuyan put the bamboo slip aside for now and picked up the only piece of sheepskin that was on the side.
Seeing that it was blank, Chi Shuyan circulated her spiritual energy and removed the camouflage on it. There were actually all kinds of pill formulas on the sheepskin. Not only were there many low- and mid-level pill formulas, there were also many high-level ones.
Chi Shuyan was stupefied. This surprise was too big and caught her off guard. Her hands trembled.
Although there were a number of ancient pill formulas in the Mystic Yin Arts, they were far from this comprehensive and not as many.
This would definitely be a treasure among treasures in the cultivation world. She didn’t expect to find such a comprehensive set of ancient pill formulas here on Earth.
Could it be that the owner of this ring was a real alchemist? Or was the person an alchemist who had inadvertently come from the cultivation world?
