Chapter. 27. Mysterious Chest
1251 Words
It was undeniable that every Demon carcass always left many uses for cultivators. What's more, with this type of Demon that Yuan Liong had defeated, this Cobra Demon was a Demon of the third class category.
Please note that each Monster and Demon Race also has its class. Ordinary monsters, which live within the age range of a hundred years, and have just evolved into Demons, are in the fourth class.
Then, when that monster meditated for a hundred years and managed to form a Demon Essence Crystal, he had successfully broken through to the realm of Third Grade Ranking. Of course, things that existed in this Monster Race became very useful for cultivators, it had become common knowledge.
Moreover, when he first entered the Martial World, the first thing that Yuan Liong learned was, the Divine Hand Medicine God's Book which contains various Alchemical Techniques, so it is not surprising that Yuan Liong would know the various benefits of the Cobra Demon's carcass.
“If this carcass is left like this, it will be a waste. I can take many useful things from him.” Yuan Liong muttered.
Yuan Liong dissected the carcass of the Cobra Demon, sorting out various items that he considered useful, be it for Alchemy or items that could be sold later. He distinguished several items, such as the Demon Cobra's skin and fangs; after being peeled off and plucked out, they were immediately inserted into the universe ring.
Both of these items are very useful in making artifacts. Then Yuan Liong looked for the stealth core crystal. According to the Divine Hand Medicine God Book, a demon core crystal is a collection of aura and the results of the cultivation of monsters for a hundred years, or even hundreds of years, which are then condensed into a lump of crystal.
The benefits are truly extraordinary, besides being able to be used to concoct various types of pills. It can also be cultivated by absorbing it, so it will increase the foundation of inner strength rapidly.
Crystal core stealth from the cobra, located in the chest cavity of the stealth carcass. It is the size of an adult male's fist. When Yuan Liong gouged out the Crystal, Yuan Liong accidentally sensed a different aura, that aura coming from the chest inside the Cobra Demon's belly.
Yuan Liong got up and took the chest.
Yuan Liong couldn't open the chest, because it was sealed with a sealing Array that used language and a complicated seal pattern, at a glance Yuan Liong saw a language pattern that was slightly similar to the language pattern found in the Soul Locking Seal Technique.
“Should I use the Soul Locking Seal Technique?” He thought.
Not bothering to worry, he immediately stored the stealth core crystal and the chest in the storage ring.
It was already dusk when Yuan Liong had cleaned up the place, the shattered conditions were back to normal. Not to forget, Yuan Liong prepared a simple shelter there.
Although Yuan Liong's period of seclusion in the Thousand Illusionary Forest had ended, he decided that he would remain in the Thousand Illusionary Forest for the next four months. This is because Yuan Liong's physical condition is very thin, it may not be recognized by those closest to him.
“I haven't lived here yet, what's the harm in trying my luck in this Forest?”
Feeling that he hasn't lived in the Thousand Illusionary Forest for more than two months, Yuan Liong has spent it in a coma. Yuan Liong wanted to feel the sensation of living in the Thousand Illusionary Forest consciously.
This name from the Forest of a Thousand Illusions was indeed not empty. The fog was very thick and strange noises, and soul-shaking screams could be heard faintly, at night was the most terrifying time in the forest.
Yuan Liong, who sensed the disturbance from the sound and screams, immediately closed his senses and cultivated. This forest is indeed full of dangers, but the aura of the World contained here is also very abundant.
During cultivation, Yuan Liong felt his inner strength increase, and his mind became clear. As if the time of breakthrough to the Heavenly Realm was imminent, Yuan Liong imagined a very long lifetime in the Illusory World, around eighty years.
Life experience was already very sufficient to quickly break through the realm. The pure air in the three main dantians condenses and gathers rapidly, all the meridians also open, and the pure air immediately spreads throughout the body, giving a very bubbling comfort.
But, it feels like something is missing, he can't break through the current realm, he remembers every important detail in breaking through the realm. Yes! That was Yuan Liong's physical condition. Right now, his physique was too weak to break through.
“With this kind of physical condition, it is taboo to break through the realm.”
“Ah! I almost hurt myself.”
To break through the Sky Realm requires a very good physical condition, a pure natural aura, a calm soul, as well as a lot of life and battle experience. Breaking through the Sky Realm was very different from breaking through the Earth Realm, King Realm, and Warrior Realm.
The breakthrough of the Heavenly and Heavenly Realm would greatly defy the principles of the World and challenge nature. So the world and nature will give cultivators a very painful test.
Every failure to break through will have a side effect, the lightest effect is a drastic decrease in the realm, and the most fatal effect will be death.
Realizing that, Yuan Liong immediately stopped the breakthrough intent, and changed his cultivation method. He changed the way of absorbing the aura of nature and only kept it in his dantian. He managed to pass the night while still cultivating.
“There's no need to rush, the opportunity will come at the right time.”

At the place of the former battle, in the Forest of a Thousand Illusions, there is now a small lake and is equipped with a training ground. The area became the brightest spot in the forest.
The little lake, set up by Yuan Liong during this week, he didn't need to look for wood or cut it anymore, because the wood and big trees that fell after his fight with the Cobra Demon were scattered there.
During this week, harnessing the power of the lightning element, Yuan Liong explored the Thousand Illusionary Forest within a two hundred spear radius of the lake where he lived. During the exploration, Yuan Liong found a water source as well as several animals that could be used as food ingredients.
"With the discovery of these animals, I don't have to fear running out of food in this Forest.”
Yuan Liong set up several piles of bonfires in the corners of his residence to add light to the place.
Preparations to live for the next four months in that place felt Yuan Liong was very adequate, then Yuan Liong looked back at the contents of his universe ring.
The most interesting thing is that the chest is still sealed.
Immediately removed the chest, a cold, soul-suffocating aura radiated from the chest. He noticed the chest was made of very tough and strong material, the skin of a third-class monster. Unsurprisingly, the chest was undamaged inside the Cobra Demon's stomach.
“What's in this chest? Why is the aura so cold?” thought Yuan Liong.
