Destined Martial God

The higher the grade of the mental cultivation method and the martial arts technique, the less paper or beast skins would be used for recording and inheriting techniques. Most of the time, they would be stored in jade slips that were longer and safer.    

In his previous life, he had killed the illegitimate child of the Hollow Jade Temple's Grand Palace Master.    

Therefore, after appearing in the area where the martial skills and mental cultivation methods were passed on, Yu Haoran directly went to the place where the jade strips were stored and used his mind to read the contents of the jade strips.    

There weren't many jade slips, only 32.    

In just a few minutes, Yu Haoran had already looked through all the contents of the jade slips. The jade slips did not contain any martial skills, mental cultivation methods or any special secret techniques, but rather, they contained the power behind the Sonic Mountain Bandits, a letter to each of the four great leaders and four great protectors.    

Through the contents of the thirty-two jade slips, he had basically understood the complicated relationship between the Zongshan Bandits and felt very regretful that the Hundred Feet Sect had not stepped into it in advance.    

After putting away the thirty-two jade slips, Yu Haoran stood in place and waited.    

"Yu Haoran, there are quite a few good things in the artifact forging materials storage area. I have already put them away secretly!"    

Waiting until the voice of the Tower Spirit came from his sea of consciousness, only then did Yu Haoran turn around and return to He Ruyu's side.    

"How is it?" Looking at Yu Haoran, He Ruyu asked.    

"The pill area is exactly the same as the first two levels of the treasure trove."    

"However, I probably already have an idea, but whether it's true or not, we still need to enter the fourth floor of the treasury for further verification."    

Turning his head to look at the location where the pill bottle were stored, Yu Haoran nodded and then indicated for He Ruyu to rush straight to the fourth floor.    

After passing through the green light screen and entering the fourth floor, Yu Haoran discovered that the fourth floor of the treasury was filled with all sorts of different shapes and types of magic tools and treasures.    

"Haoran, it seems that none of the treasures on this level are missing!"    

In the first four floors of the treasury, He Ruyu was mainly responsible for the spirit stones in the first floor, as well as the top treasures and magic tools in the fourth floor.    

Furthermore, compared to the huge amount stored in the first three floors, the treasures and artifacts on the fourth floor were very few, only twenty-six of them.    

"You're sure!" Turning his head to look at He Ruyu, Yu Haoran asked.    

"I'm sure!" He Ruyu promised with a heavy nod of his head.    

With a flash, he appeared in front of a jade box. Yu Haoran immediately opened it and indicated to He Ruyu.    

"Ruyu, what was in this jade box originally?"    

"How is this possible?" Looking at the empty jade box, He Ruyu said in disbelief.    

"Haoran, the box originally contained a mass of Xuan Yuan Liquid that can directly raise one's cultivation and strength, and also has a certain probability of comprehending the power of the Law."    

"However, because of the volatile nature of the Xuan Yuan Liquid, it cannot leave the jade box for a long period of time. Otherwise, the energy contained within would gradually weaken, and eventually disappear."    

"That's right!"    

Hearing He Ruyu's explanation, Yu Haoran nodded her head, and became even more certain of her guess.    

Soon after, he raised his head and glanced at the treasures on the fourth floor of the treasury. He then discovered three jade boxes and two wooden boxes made of Green Eternal wood.    

Pulling He Ruyu's hand, they directly arrived in front of the jade and wooden boxes. Yu Haoran opened them one by one, and other than the wooden box that contained a jade pendant with an Azure Dragon carved on it, all the treasures in the other four boxes had disappeared.    

The treasures that had disappeared, according to He Ruyu, were all top-notch treasures that could be used to raise one's cultivation and strength, and which contained a large amount of spirit energy.    

At this moment, not only was Yu Haoran able to guess the true reason behind the disappearance of the Spirit Stones and Medicinal Pills that were Level 6 and above, and those treasures that contained such a large amount of spirit power, he also roughly knew the total number of levels in the treasury.    

Thinking about the fatal dangers of the treasures stored after the fourth floor, Yu Haoran did not take the risk to enter the fifth floor immediately. Instead, he carefully observed the remaining ten or so treasures on the fourth floor.    

However, at this time, Tower Spirit in his sea of consciousness suddenly asked him for the jade pendant that he just discovered.    

"Yu Haoran, send the jade pendant that you found in the wooden box into the Domain Tower!"    

With a single thought, Yu Haoran sent the jade pendant that was engraved with the green dragon into the Domain Tower.    

When he received the jade pendant, he had already used his will and spirit energy to inspect it, but he did not find any secrets about it. Therefore, even if the Tower Spirit did not take the initiative to ask for it, after he finished inspecting all the treasures, he would take the initiative to ask the Tower Spirit for help to check it.    

After passing the jade pendant to the Tower Spirit, Yu Haoran's gaze turned to the remaining ten or so treasures, the simple and ancient pill furnace with slightly damaged sides.    

As he walked over to the pill furnace and carefully observed the engravings on its surface ? a flower, a grass, a tree, a worm, and a person ? his brain was recalling the records he had read about this pill furnace in one of the ruins.    

It was exactly the same!    

Whether it was the contents of the carvings, the shape, size, or position of the carvings, they were exactly the same as in the records. Yu Haoran's heart was already filled with confidence.    

He placed his hand on the pill furnace and channeled the elemental energy from his dantian into the pill furnace. The green flame that was originally lying quietly in the furnace immediately began to burn.    

His free right hand reached into the pill furnace and carefully felt the temperature of the green flame. He realized that it was just like how the legends described, and the confidence in his heart instantly rose to seven levels.    

He took out an ordinary Rank 9 Elixir from his storage ring and threw it into the furnace, then increased the input of elemental energy. The originally harmless green flame, in less than three seconds, refined the elixir into a ball the size of a finger.    

After absorbing the spirit liquid, he carefully observed it for a while. Yu Haoran was pleasantly surprised to discover that using the green flames to refine the spirit medicine, not only could he refine it faster, the purity of the spirit liquid after refinement was almost perfect.    

At this moment, he was completely confident that this pill furnace was none other than the pill furnace he had acquired 30,000 years ago, the one known as the Saint Fantasy Exquisite.    

However, judging from the degree of the pill furnace's destruction and how it was driven by elemental energy, this pill furnace had once suffered an unimaginable blow. Not only did it cause the pill furnace itself to drop to the low-grade sage realm, but its artifact spirit had also been completely destroyed.    

Although losing the artifact spirit was equivalent to losing the legacy of the Heavenly Sage on the way of pills, Yu Haoran did not feel much regret in his heart.    

This was because he had experienced many adventures in his past life, and he had come into contact with the Dao of alchemy more than once. It was not at all inferior to the level he was at, and was even far superior to the legacy and records of Saint Fantasy Exquisite.    

With regards to some of the insights in pill refining, Yu Haoran was confident that he would not lose to Saint.    

If the spirit of the pill furnace still existed, it might affect his use of the pill furnace.    

If he wanted to refine the lower grade sage realm's pill furnace thoroughly, he would have to use the power of the God Soul. Right now, his cultivation had yet to break through his Martial Master Realm, so he could only temporarily put away the pill furnace.    

After which, his gaze shifted to the other treasures.    

However, after sweeping his gaze over the remaining dozen or so treasures, Yu Haoran realized that most of them were only Zong and King Realm weapons, and weren't of much use to him.    

But considering that the Clear Cloud Line and eldest senior brother had just ascended to the position of sect master and required these treasures to garner the attention of the people, Yu Haoran immediately put them into his spatial ring after asking for He Ruyu's permission.    

Following that, Yu Haoran's gaze landed on the green light screen deep within the treasury's fourth floor.
