Three Treasures in the Bag

The giant crab was merely an ordinary demon-ghost in a corner of this vast ocean. Neither its bloodline nor its strength was particularly remarkable.

The two streaks of memory it contributed were among its few useful pieces of information.

The first memory contained the complete refining method for a Destiny Constitution, with quite detailed content.

This was the second Destiny Constitution refining method Jing Qian had mastered since the Earth Ring Destiny Constitution:

[Destiny Constitution: Crab Jade]

[Rank: White Fang]

[Gains the strength of a crab.]

[Refining Method: Engrave talismans onto White Fang Spirit Crab materials, melt into the palm, and gain the strength of a crab.]

Jing Qian carefully pondered the refining method of the Crab Jade, comparing it with the Earth Ring Destiny Constitution. He felt he had gained considerable insight.

This Crab Jade Destiny Constitution was not extraordinary; it was one of the easiest types of Destiny Constitution to obtain from various demon-ghost lifeforms, known as Lifeform Destiny.

Refining this type of Destiny Constitution could significantly enhance physical strength and allow one to comprehend the innate divine abilities of spirit beasts and demon-ghosts, causing one's combat power to surge.

It was a type of Destiny Constitution with a very low threshold but a quite high upper limit, greatly favored by rogue cultivators.

Strictly speaking, the Sewing Souls and Weaving Spirits that Jing Qian refined also fell under the category of Lifeform Destiny, while also possessing characteristics of God-Ghost Destiny.

The Earth Ring Destiny Constitution, on the other hand, belonged to another major category, Mountain-Sea Destiny, which was a type of Destiny Constitution that gathered the power of heaven and earth to strengthen oneself.

Within the same rank, different types of Destiny Constitution did not have essential differences in power; it all depended on how the cultivator developed and utilized them.

Jing Qian would not fuse either of these White Fang rank Destiny Constitutions into himself.

This was because, although these lowest-level acquired Destiny Constitutions were indeed powerful, they always had some obvious side effects.

Just like the Earth Ring Destiny Constitution, under the enhancement of earth power, prolonged use would gradually reduce the cultivator's height until they became a dwarf.

This process of altering the physical body was also filled with pain.

And after the Crab Jade Destiny Constitution was refined, the human hand would gradually transform into a crab claw.

Not only was it extremely ugly, but it also lost the flexibility of a hand.

For these two Destiny Constitutions, Jing Qian only treated them as a foundation for cultivation to broaden his knowledge. After understanding them thoroughly, he no longer paid attention to them.

The second streak of memory contributed by the giant crab was the truly valuable part for Jing Qian.

This giant crab did not have a powerful bloodline; it was an ordinary sea crab, a lucky fellow who had managed to advance to the White Fang rank by chance.

The reason it could surpass all its peers and achieve the sublimation of its life essence was naturally due to its overflowing good fortune and the opportunity that befell it.

Within this memory, there was a large amount of valuable information about the sea area controlled by the giant crab.

This included topography, ocean currents, marine life, and other secrets that land creatures could never access.

By absorbing this memory, Jing Qian felt as if he had truly transformed into the giant crab, swimming freely in this sea area, taking in all the conditions.

This was extremely useful information for him, capable of immediately improving his current situation!

For a moment, he felt as if his bleak future suddenly had light. He instantly exited the Destiny Stele Space.

Returning to his own void, within the cramped space, pure Innate Primordial Qi was actually drifting about.

This was the qi that had dissipated when Jing Qian absorbed the Destiny Essence. With the obstruction of this void, it finally wouldn't be wasted.

The outer membrane of the void was almost pressed against Jing Qian's skin. For an ordinary person, this confined space would likely be so oppressive it would lead to a breakdown.

But Jing Qian only felt as if he had returned to the castle he built with quilts as a child, warm and secure.

Having a small space also had its advantages. At the very least, the density of this qi could be extremely high, which could also help Jing Qian nourish his physical body.

He shifted his body slightly and took out the three items that were originally hidden in the brocade bag from beneath him, examining them carefully.

The first item was a small black wooden box. He opened it and saw a neatly arranged pile of unique coins inside.

Counting carefully, there were three Yuan Gold Ingots the size of a fingertip, with a bright yellow color and extremely heavy in hand, each weighing over ten catties!

And ten Destiny Silver Ingots of the same size, their color snow-white and feeling excellent to the touch, each weighing ten taels.

In addition, there were one hundred neatly stacked Red Copper Knife Coins, engraved with intricate inscriptions.

Jing Qian picked one up and examined it carefully, only to see a line of small characters written on it:

"Hun Zhou Prefecture Government Decree!"

These Yuan Gold, Destiny Silver, and Copper Knife coins were the current currency system in the Hun Zhou region.

In the memories he had absorbed, there was also some information about currency.

These three types of currency—gold, silver, and copper—were made of rare materials, exquisitely cast, and had stable values, circulating very smoothly among the various Destiny Islands.

However, although Jing Qian knew that these three currencies could be exchanged at a ratio of one to ten, he did not understand their actual purchasing power and could only explore it slowly after going ashore.

He put this box of money away and took out the second item.

It was a rather thick book!

This book was written in a very complex script. Jing Qian, having the tall and thin cultivator's memories, easily read the entire text.

He saw that on the cover of the book was written "Morning and Evening Destiny Breaking Scripture." He casually flipped through it, and it was filled with obscure and difficult-to-understand knowledge about cultivation.

This was the family cultivation method of the Jing Su Shi of Crimson Pearl Island, the fundamental inheritance of a Destiny Island!

From then on, Jing Qian's cultivation would have a method to follow.

Leaving aside whether the grade of this inheritance was high or low, at the very least, compared to rogue cultivators without a foundation, he was already far ahead!

This secret manual was also entirely woven from spider silk. Even the dense small characters on it were sewn thread by thread, making it impervious to water and fire, and impenetrable by swords and spears, extremely tough.

Jing Qian also put it away carefully and looked at the third item again.

This was a flawless jade token the width of a palm, with the characters "Protection" carved in intaglio on it.

The jade token was simple in form, without too many fancy patterns, but the few strokes revealed the depth of the carver's skill.

Jing Qian scanned it back and forth with his divine sense but found nothing special.

Just looking at the literal meaning, the two characters "Protection" might hide some special rights or network of relationships of the Jing Su Shi family.

Although he was not yet clear about its specific use at the moment, his intuition told him that this item was by no means ordinary.

He carefully stored the three items one by one, a sense of security welling up in his heart.

Love your child, plan far ahead for them!

The brocade pouch that Jing Su Shi had prepared for Jing Qian was truly meticulously crafted, paving a solid path for him.

If it weren't for Qi Zhi Shi Island's determination to exterminate him, sending out a Dragon Elephant to pursue him, the original Jing Qian, protected by the Azure Pearl, would surely have been able to advance steadily on the path of cultivation.

However, the current Jing Qian had already merged with a new life and embarked on a different path.

Feeling the Sumeru Destiny Constitution in his sea of consciousness, and that unique Destiny Stele Space, Jing Qian felt that the road was beneath his feet, the Dao was in his heart, and all difficulties and obstacles were nothing to him!
