第两千三百七十九章 清点宝物

Lin Xuan's face showed a satisfied expression as he emerged to test his techniques. The purpose had been achieved, and with a flick of his sleeve robe, a black aura flashed past, revealing two storage bags.

No need to say, these items were obtained from the Twin Demons of Heavenly Mist. That battle was quite strenuous for Lin Xuan, but fortunately, it ended without any major incidents. As an old monster at the Spirit Dividing stage, the two seniors must have left behind considerable assets.

With this thought in mind, a hint of anticipation appeared on his face as he casually picked up one of the storage bags and flipped his hand to turn over the bag's mouth. A wave of light霞 quickly emerged from it, producing a series of clinking sounds. Soon, a pile of items was revealed on the ground: medicinal pills, demon stones, materials, magical treasures—everything you could imagine, with extremely high quality. Additionally, there were some talismans and jade bottles.

Lin Xuan's expression changed but he didn't immediately count them; instead, his right hand moved to pick up another storage bag, repeating the process. A black aura emerged once again, accompanied by a series of clinking sounds as he shook it.

After emptying both storage bags, Lin Xuan lowered his head and began categorically counting the treasures on the ground.

The demon stones were all high-grade items, with even some top-tier ones making up one-third of the total. It was no wonder; these were remnants from a spirit dividing era ancient demon. His assessment was correct—their assets were indeed substantial.

There wasn't much to count, so Lin Xuan gathered everything at once. Although he was a cultivator, he now found himself in the demon realm where demon stones had significant value.

As for the materials, there were quite a few as well. Some of them, though unfamiliar to him, seemed to be far more valuable than those demon stones just counted.

After thoroughly counting these items, Lin Xuan turned his head and focused on the bottles and jars beside him. These were medicinal pills with various uses, requiring considerable effort to identify their specific functions. He picked up one, uncorked it, and a sweet fragrance wafted out.

"What kind of pill is this?"

Lin Xuan's face showed some confusion, but quickly he patted his head. What was the point in overthinking? The cultivation world had countless medicinal pills and elixirs; even true immortals couldn't possibly know them all.

Since he couldn’t recognize these, he would find a marketplace later where experts could appraise them.

With this thought, Lin Xuan put away the medicinal pills. There were still about ten demon treasures and several sets of array flags left on the ground.

Lin Xuan picked up a short black sword.

He lowered his head to release his spirit sense.

After a moment, he sighed, laid down the demon sword, and picked up another item nearby.

This process took nearly half an hour before Lin Xuan finished appraising all these treasures. However, none of them met his needs.

It wasn't because their grade was too low; in fact, there were many significant items among them—treasures collected by spirit dividing era ancient demons. How could they be trash?

Lin Xuan didn’t find them useful due to the nature of his cultivation techniques. In short, he was a cultivator while the other party was an ancient demon. Even though he had some knowledge of demonic techniques as auxiliary information, he wasn't proficient in them. Thus, these treasures were unsuitable for him; most could only exert about six or seven-tenths of their full power, which was still formidable but not as effective as they would be to someone else.

However, the sets of array flags were impressive with their illusion and concealment effects. These wouldn’t conflict with his own cultivation techniques, so Lin Xuan accepted them for use in defending his cave府.

During combat, these weren't necessary, but they could serve as alarms during the construction of his cave府.

After thoroughly counting all the treasures, Lin Xuan sighed. The收获 was decent, though not overly valuable. He soon shook his head, remembering that contentment is bliss. After all, this demon realm journey had far exceeded his initial expectations.

He initially only wanted some spirit grass for refining a spirit dividing pill, but now he had directly advanced to the next stage.

Setting aside this point, his luck led him to obtain phoenix blood and thus activate the mutations of the Black Moon Sky Witch Technique. As a result, the complete text of the technique from separation to the Transcendence stage was finally gathered. The Nine Heavens Divine Net's power was unparalleled; if he wasn't satisfied with such great fortune, he might truly deserve divine punishment.

With these thoughts in mind, Lin Xuan's slight disappointment vanished. As always, one should be content. Suddenly, he remembered that he had overlooked a treasure.

Lin Xuan stretched out his hand and tapped the storage bag. A black light flashed as a black ribbon flew from his waist, circling before settling mid-air.

When the light subsided, a series of leaf-shaped demon swords appeared.

Each sword was identical in shape, measuring over three feet long, thin like cicada wings, with a faint glimmer on its surface—evidently, each had been forged through countless refinements.

The quantity was considerable; though slightly inferior to his Nine Palaces Momentary Swords, the quality and number made these extraordinary treasures.

Black Water Deva Sword!

This was the innate treasure of the female demon from Heavenly Mist. She endured much hardship refining this sword. Lin Xuan recognized its significance, which is why he brought it back. However, as an innate treasure, the spiritual mark on it was naturally strong. But taking the Black Water Deva Sword required some consideration.

Lin Xuan intended to use it as raw material for his Nine Palaces Momentary Swords.

Indeed, he wanted to strengthen his new innate treasures. According to the description in the Black Moon Sky Witch Technique, a fully matured Nine Palaces Momentary Sword should consist of "nine swords."

The term "nine swords" referred to metal, water, fire, earth, and their derivatives—electricity, wind, ice—and the most mysterious, an illusory sword that no longer belonged to the five elements.

Moreover, not just one sword for each attribute; he had already refined over eighty-one fire属性swords. The same applied to other attributes.

It was easy to imagine how monumental it would be to refine all true Nine Palaces Momentary Swords. After so much contemplation, Lin Xuan felt somewhat unreliable about the task. However, giving up now would be a pity. Fortunately, the crafting section of the Black Moon Sky Witch Technique clearly outlined a simpler path.
