Chapter 152: Interspatial Ring
Translator: Panda_Penn Editor: Chrissy
"Saint Lord!"
Ye Cha suddenly took a black iron ring; he gave it to Lu Li and said, "There are some pellets here enough for you to cultivate to the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm. There is one Heaven Serpent Fruit in here as well. You can sell it after you go outside to trade for some Mystical Materials to breakthrough to the Soul Pond Realm. After you reach the Soul Pond Realm, come back in here again. We will give you more pellets to help you cultivate."
"What is this thing?"
Lu Li took over the ring with confusion and studied it. How could such a small ring hold so many things inside? There was one Heaven Serpent Fruit in it? Ye Cha was not messing with him?
Ye Cha said with a smile, "Pour your Xuan Energy in and you will see."
Lu Li skeptically released Xuan Energy. The black iron ring must be without an owner since in just a moment, it glowed with white light. A space of the size of a room showed up in Lu Li’s mind. There were many jade vases inside and a beautiful jade box.
"Try to focus your mind on one of the vases."
Ye Cha said something. Lu Li concentrated his mind on a vase. The next moment, the black iron ring glowed. A jade vase suddenly appeared above the ring, causing Lu Li to feel frightened. He dared not to reach for the jade vase. The jade vase fell to the table.
"This… this… can it be the legendary Interspatial Ring?"
Lu Li asked with doubt. He once saw a ring on Ming Yu’s hand, and Ming Yu got a jade talisman out of that ring like doing some sort of trick. Later, Lu Li asked Liu Yi about it and learned that it was a legendary Interspatial Ring.
Ye Cha nodded and said, "This is indeed an Interspatial Ring, but I am afraid that someone may snatch it from you so I refined it. Outsiders cannot tell that it is an Interspatial Ring. The ring is not really valuable, but many people don’t have it here at the Northern Desert. So… you must be careful when you use your Interspatial Ring. No outsiders can see it."
"Um!"
Lu Li nodded at once. If someone knew about this rare treasure, they would try to take it. At least Xu Yaoyang didn’t have one. Xu Chen and Bai Xiashuang seemed to be wearing rings, but Lu Li did not know if they were Interspatial Rings.
"What is this pellet?"
Lu Li picked up the jade vase and opened it. He poured a pellet out. The pellet was pink, and a special fragrance of herb came from it. The pellet was much more appealing than the Heaven Xuan Pellet and the aroma was stronger.
"This is the Cyan Phoenix Pellet, one that is refined by us, the Cyan Phoenix Race," Ye Cha explained, "this kind of pellet can increase your speed of cultivation by 50 times. With these pellets, it will be easy for you to cultivate to the peak of the Spirit Sea Realm."
"Fifty times!"
Heaven Xuan Pellets could only boost the cultivation by more than a dozen times. It increased to more than a score times because of the animal tooth pendant. The efficacy of the Cyan Phoenix Pellet was even stronger. The speed of cultivation was much faster, so Lu Li must be able to progress enormously in his cultivation.
"Thank you, Clan Leader Ye."
Lu Li bowed. Ye Cha helped Lu Li up with a smile and said, "You are picked by our ancestor. You are our Saint Lord. All the Mystical Materials of our race can be given to the Saint Lord, let alone so few pellets. But Saint Lord, your power is not enough now. If we were to give you everything, they would actually harm you."
"Um."
Lu Li understood what Ye Cha was getting at. Lu Li remembered the Heaven Serpent Fruit in the ring and said, "Clan Leader Ye, if I sell the Heaven Serpent Fruit you give me, someone will notice me easily as well."
One Heaven Serpent Fruit was worth 40 or 50 million Xuan Crystals, very valuable. If Lu Li were to sell it outside of the small world, he would be investigated and hunted down.
"That is an issue!"
Ye Cha thought about it and tried to ask, "How about… Saint Lord you cultivate to the peak of the Eternal Realm and then leave? We can provide you with all the resources needed for cultivation. As long as you have good natural gift, you can reach the peak of the Eternal Realm in 30 years, maximum."
"Thirty years?"
Lu Li shook his head. The time was too long. What about the Liu Family if he stayed here for such a long time? Without him there, the Liu Family could not grow the Blood Caterpillar Fruits, or the Fire Fairy Lucid Ganoderma and Netherworld Roots. The Liu Family would have no way to earn Xuan Crystals. Without Hunchback Tian or Green Dwarfs, the Liu Family would be destroyed by other forces soon.
Also…
What if Lu Ling came back for him?
If she could not find him, would Lu Ling commit suicide out of sorrow or despair? Thirty years was much too long. Lu Li hadn’t completely put his guard down against the Cyan Phoenix Race yet. He dared not to stay at the place for too long.
Seeing that Lu Li refused, Ye Cha sank into deep thoughts. Suddenly, his eyes glowed and he said, "I have an idea. Brother Two, get the Ghost Mask."
"Yes."
An old man flew out like a ghost, and he came back after a short while. There was one black mask like an evil ghost in his hand. Ye Cha handed it to Lu Li and said, "This is a Heaven Grade Xuan Artifact. Refine it and put it on. Other than warriors of the Noble Lord Realm, nobody can tell your real appearance, nor will they detect your Realm."
"Good stuff!"
Lu Li took it over. He poured his Xuan Energy into it, and after a while, the mask glowed with white light. Lu Li put it on. The mask stuck to his face and it would not fall off. Lu Li didn’t feel any weight added to his face, as if he hadn’t worn anything.
His entire face was covered up by the mask, leaving only his eyes out. He sensed a strange surge of qi and energy coming from his body which gave him a temperament as cold as ice.
Lu Li reached out and grabbed onto the mask. The mask came off immediately. He gently patted the mask to get a sense of the metallic feeling of it and the mysterious patterns on it. Even though he hadn’t asked anybody to do any appraisal, he was already convinced that this was a Heaven Grade Xuan Artifact.
People would say yes to those they owed.
Lu Li was not feeling comfortable taking it. He scratched his head and said, "Clan Leader Ye, what do you need me to do for you now? I will do it at once as long as it is within my capacity."
"No!"
Ye Cha shook his head and said with a smile, "Saint Lord, your mission now is to cultivate. You can help us when you reach the Fate Wheel Realm."
"Fate Wheel Realm?"
Lu Li did not understand. The realm was neither too low nor too high. What could he do? Ye Cha explained, "We are going to need to purchase some Mystical Materials to help us to reach the Noble Lord Realm, like the Rising Dragon Grass. That being said, Saint Lord, your power is not enough now. Once you bring a large quantity of treasured Mystical Materials to sell, people will notice it. It will do you harm."
"Oh."
Lu Li saw it. At the end of the day, the Cyan Phoenix Race thought his strength was not enough now. If he was given too many treasured Mystical Materials, they would be taken away from him before he could sell them. His life would be at risk as well.
"Can it be that Ye Cha arranged a shell game and his real goal is to have me to sell Mystical Materials for him? Then he can get the Mystical Materials he needs? After they reach the Noble Lord Realm, they can leave the small world."
An idea flashed through Lu Li’s mind, one that he denied in an instant.
Since Hunchback Tian was about to be implanted Soul Worms, the Cyan Phoenix Race could control Hunchback Tian to sell and buy the Mystical Materials for them. They wouldn’t have to go through so much trouble.
While they were chatting, one person of the Cyan Phoenix Race came in suddenly and whispered to Ye Cha’s ears. Ye Cha said, "Saint Lord, we have located the Inhibition Formation to teleport you to the outside. You can leave at any time now. How about you leave after Hunchback Tian makes the breakthrough to the Fate Wheel Realm?"
"Okay!"
It would only take three days for Hunchback Tian to make the breakthrough. Only three days, nothing serious should happen at the Blood Evil Island. As long as he could get back to the Blood Evil Island successfully, Lu Li could tell that Ye Cha wanted him no harm.
