Buying a Storage Pouch

Even after Chen Lie left, the Void Heaven Demon Force within the Void Heaven Pagoda did not reach its previous concentration for quite some time.

Qin Zhenling had no choice but to attempt the breakthrough at the ninth level. Upon arriving at the ninth level, she did not feel that the Void Heaven Force on the ninth level was much denser than that on the eighth level.

"That's strange. Wasn't it said that the density of the ninth level of the Void Heaven Pagoda was unbearable even for those below the Middle Divine Aperture? How come it feels no different from the eighth level?"

Or did that person successfully break through to the next realm and exhaust all the Void Heaven Force within the Void Heaven Pagoda?

Qin Zhenling was puzzled, but she knew that many people would probably fail to advance to the next realm today.

Outside the Void Heaven Pagoda, the elderly deacon guarding the Void Heaven Pagoda looked strange when he saw the alarm indicating that the density of the Void Heaven Pagoda 'Void Heaven Force had fallen below the critical value.

"How strange! Why is the density of the Void Heaven Force within this Void Heaven Pagoda decreasing so rapidly? It's even less than half of what it used to be!"

"It seems that Shaokang Commandery Princess of the Sacred Martial Dynasty consumed too much of her Void Heaven Force during her breakthrough."

"But why did she expend even more energy than the Blood God Sect's Holy Maiden did when she broke through to the next realm?"

When the Blood God Sect's Holy Maiden broke through to the next realm, she didn't consume this much of the Void Heaven Force within the Void Heaven Pagoda.

Could it be because the Void Heaven Pagoda wasn't banned from opening this time?

Void Heaven Pagoda now, besides Shaokang Commandery Princess, there are many nobles from the Beimang Star who are breaking through to higher realms, and it seems that this is the reason.

"Now... it will take at least ten days to half a month for the Void Heaven Pagoda's Void Heaven Force to fully recover."

The old steward shook his head. The Void Heaven Pagoda is shared by the Ten-Star Alliance. Now that one side is rapidly consuming the Void Heaven Force, Canglong Star can't say anything.

Although the Void Heaven Force diminishes with every use, the Void Heaven Pagoda is located within the territory of Canglong Star. Canglong Star consumes far more Void Heaven Force than other planets, so it has no grounds to criticize Beimang Star for consuming too much.

In this situation, we can only turn a blind eye.

On the other side, Chen Lie completed the cultivation of his Primordial Spirit Aperture and received help from a Void Heaven Great Demon. His Strength Value and number of Blood Tempering reached the level of the top geniuses in the Central Galactic Empire.

After leaving the Void Heaven Pagoda area, Chen Lie returned to the First Campus.

He found a Cultivation Room, tested his qi and blood, and then tested his strength. He discovered that his Strength Value had actually increased by 16 times, crossing that 0.01-fold barrier.

"Having reached sixteen Strength Value and completed the sixteenth Blood Tempering, I can now Defying Heaven and Changing Fate in the Third Ultimate Realm and completely change my life's status."

Life position is a mysterious and elusive thing, and Chen Lie didn't know how to describe it, but it is indeed a very important thing.

The manifestation of one's life status can be illustrated by comparing an ant to a dragon; the difference between the ant and the dragon represents the difference in their life status.

An ant is an ant because of its lowly status in life, while a dragon is a dragon because of its high status in life.

Sixteen Blood Tempering, sixteen times the Strength Value, not only greatly increased his power, but also opened up more possibilities for his future.

After carefully observing the changes in his own body, Chen Lie looked at the giant purple-gold egg next to him.

This giant egg, nearly a meter tall, is simply impossible to carry around.

"It seems it's time to buy a Sumeru Mustard Seed Storage Pouch."

With a Starry Sky Behemoth bone on his back and now a giant egg, he simply couldn't carry these two things around without a Storage Pouch.

Moreover, he still has the Five Elements Divine Meridians stored on Blue Star. In the future, when he breaks through to become Martial Artist and wants to cultivate the Five Elements True Qi, he will have to go back to Blue Star to retrieve it. If he had Storage Pouch, he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.

"I wonder how much Storage Pouch on Canglong Star costs, and whether I have enough money."

Storage Pouch aren't cheap. They're not too expensive in the Ten Great Star Provinces of the Central Galactic Empire, generally ranging from 30,000 to 50,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins. However, the Canglan Star Domain probably doesn't have the technology to make Sumeru Mustard Seeds, so they must all be imported from major star regions or directly from within the Ten Great Star Provinces, and the price must be exorbitant.

Chen Lie brought the giant golden egg, which he couldn't carry, to his Dormitory. He held it in his hands and examined it carefully.

"This egg is the offspring of the Void Heaven Demon Emperor. If the Void Heaven Demon Race truly has such a supreme ruler, then this Void Heaven Demon Emperor's strength is definitely no weaker than the top martial arts experts of the Central Galactic Empire."

In his previous life, Chen Lie may have been too ignorant to have heard of the Demon Emperor and Demon Sovereign of the Void Heaven Demon Race Clan. He only knew that such a powerful cosmic race as the Void Heaven Demon Race existed on the border of the Central Galactic Empire.

If things are truly as the Void Heaven Demon Chi Feng, who was trapped inside the Void Heaven Pagoda, said, then being able to send this young master of the Void Heaven Demon Race back to the Void Heaven Demon Race should be considered a great fortune for him.

Chen Lie locked the egg in his Dormitory and left the campus.

Purchasing Storage Pouch was urgent, so Chen Lie summoned an airship and left Starry Sky University.

Starry Sky University is located in the Canglong Continent, next to a Martial Arts Market District. Chen Lie last participated in the Permanent Councilor Star Competition Divine Martial Hall next to that martial arts market.

The airship has automatic navigation. After Chen Lie issued the destination command, the airship quickly headed towards the Martial Arts Market.

Before long, the airship arrived outside the martial arts market. Chen Lie stepped off the airship and entered the market directly.

There are thousands of martial arts resource shops in the Martial Arts Market District. After entering a comprehensive Market Street, Chen Lie started searching for each shop one by one.

Storage Pouch are a rare item; they're not always available in ordinary shops.

After walking around, Chen Lie came to a shop selling weapon materials and inquired about it.

"Excuse me, sir, where in this Market Street can I buy Storage Pouch?"

The shop owner glanced at Chen Lie and said, "Young man, this street sells martial arts resources such as Yuan Stone and weapon materials. There are no Storage Pouch here."

You can go and check other Market Street; this street definitely won't have it."

"Okay, thank you!"

Chen Lie walked out of the shop, intending to go to another martial arts Market Street to check out the neighboring Market Street, when he suddenly ran into an acquaintance, Ning Fan from Blue Star.

At this moment, there was a woman dressed in Ancient Garments beside Ning Fan.

Upon seeing Chen Lie, Ning Fan immediately stepped forward to greet him, "Junior Chen, what are you doing here?"

When Chen Lie saw Ning Fan greet him, he also called out "Senior Ning" and said, "I'd like to buy a Storage Pouch."

"You're buying Storage Pouch?"

Ning Fan asked doubtfully, "Storage Pouch aren't cheap. Many people usually wait until they graduate from Starry Sky University to consider buying one. At Starry Sky University, you'll rarely need to use Storage Pouch."

"Oh? How much does Storage Pouch cost? Where can I buy one?"

"Even a small Storage Pouch costs close to 300,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins. I do know a place that sells them. Are you sure you want them?"

Although Chen Lie was mentally prepared for the high price of Storage Pouch sold in the Canglan Star Domain, he was still somewhat shocked when he heard the price of 300,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins.

A tenfold premium—these sellers are truly ruthless.

"I'm sure I want it. Could you please take me to see it?"

"Alright, then I'll take you there," Ning Fan said.

At this moment, the woman in Ancient Garments next to Ning Fan suddenly asked, "Brother Ning, is this person your friend?"

"Remember Chen Lie, the guy from the same star as me that I mentioned to you? This is him!" Ning Fan said.

"Oh, so you're the number one Blood-Qi Realm expert in the Eastern Star Region!"

The woman in Ancient Garments looked at Chen Lie and examined him with great interest.

"Junior Brother Chen, this is Zhuo Danqiong, a student from the Mental Power Department. She is from Changxia Star, a planet in the Ten-Star Alliance, and is an inner disciple of the Cloudglow Sect."

Inner disciple of the Cloudglow Sect?

Chen Lie knew that Changxia Star was also one of the planets in the Ten-Star Alliance, and its planetary structure was similar to that of Blood God Planet, with a unified political and religious system.

The Cloudglow Sect governs more than ten kingdoms across Changxia Star. The emperors of each kingdom must obtain the approval of the Cloudglow Sect before they can ascend the throne.

Royal families and nobles from various countries consider it an honor to join the Cloudglow Sect.

The sect leader of the Cloudglow Sect is the only one who has the final say in the Cloudglow Sect, the true ruler of Changxia Star, and his martial arts are at Transcending Mortality and Entering Sainthood level.

On the planets of the Ten-Star Alliance, unless they are truly top-tier nobles, such as the Holy Sons and Daughters of the Blood God Sect on Blood God Planet, the descendants of high-ranking officials, the core members of the Beimang Star Sacred Martial Dynasty, the children of the sect leader of the Cloudglow Sect on Changxia Star, or the descendants of the Supreme Elders, most people will have a name registered at Starry Sky University.

The true elites of the Ten-Star Alliance, who receive top-tier training on their own planets, naturally disdain entering the Canglong Starry Sky University. However, those who cannot receive proper training will come to the Starry Sky University to study, even if they are from the Ten-Star Alliance.

After greeting Zhuo Danqiong of the Cloudglow Sect, Chen Lie asked Ning Fan to take him to the place where he could buy Storage Pouch.

Soon, Chen Lie and Ning Fan arrived at a shop called ' True Martial Shop ' at the end of the Martial Arts Market District.

"Junior Chen, this shop sells Storage Pouch."

"Okay, I'll go in and take a look!"

Chen Lie walked directly into the shop.

As soon as I entered, someone came to greet me.

"Hello, this is True Martial Shop, a shop under the Divine Martial Hall. I am the shop manager."

"Is there anything you need?"

Chen Lie glanced at the shop manager and went straight to the point. "I want a Storage Pouch!"

"Storage Pouch?"

The shop manager glanced at Chen Lie and noticed that he was quite young, so he guessed that Chen Lie was probably a first or second-year student at Starry Sky University. Storage Pouch were usually purchased by Starry Sky University students who were about to graduate, so it was rare to see younger students buying them.

However, since the customer wanted it, he had no reason not to introduce it, saying, "Our Storage Pouch are divided into three levels, the difference being the size of the storage space in the Storage Pouch."

First-class Storage Pouch, 500 cubic meters. Second-class Storage Pouch, 300 cubic meters. Third-class Storage Pouch, 150 cubic meters.

The prices are 480,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins, 380,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins, and 280,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins respectively.

Which one do you prefer?

"A third-class Storage Pouch is this small?"

Chen Lie couldn't help but frown.

He currently has 270,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins on his Star Dollar Card, plus 1.5 million Canglong Currency, which is roughly 370,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins. This is still not enough to buy a second-class Storage Pouch.

Furthermore, even a second-class Storage Pouch doesn't offer much space.

Three hundred cubic meters sounds like a lot, but in the end it's just a cuboid 15 meters long, 10 meters wide, and 2 meters high, which is the space of a few semi-trailer truck beds.

It's more than enough for Chen Lie now, but that might not be the case in the future.

"If you feel that's not enough, you can buy second-class or first-class Storage Pouch."

"Can you give me a discount on this second-class Storage Pouch?" Chen Lie asked.

"I'm sorry, we don't negotiate prices here. If your budget is tight, you can choose a third-class Storage Pouch," the shop manager said.

At this moment, Ning Fan and Zhuo Danqiong walked over and said, "Junior Brother Chen, whatever you owe, I'll cover it!"

"Thank you very much, consider it a loan!" Chen Liedao.

"There's no question of lending or borrowing. You don't need to be so polite. I might need your help in the future," Ning Fan waved his hand.

Chen Lie asked the shop manager, "Can I pay with Canglong Currency?"

"Well... if we settle in Canglong Currency, the exchange rate can't be calculated according to the official ten to one." The shopkeeper hesitated for a moment.

"The black market exchange rate is fine too. I'll settle the bulk of it in Galactic Coin, plus 1.5 million Canglong Currency," Chen Liedao.

"Okay, 1.5 million Canglong Currency, which is equivalent to 100,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins. You just need to pay another 280,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins."

Chen Lie grunted in agreement, Leaving the Star Card, and directly swiped it for 270,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins and 1,500,000 Canglong Currency from the shop owner.

Chen Lie was still short 10,000 Star-Origin Galactic Coins, so he had Ning Fan cover the difference.

At this moment, Chen Lie 'Star Card account was completely empty, leaving only 90,000 Credit.

"Please wait a moment, I'll have someone fetch your Storage Pouch right away."

Chen Lie nodded and waited.

Zhuo Danqiong, who was standing next to Ning Fan, asked, "Junior, you've just entered Starry Sky University and already spent all your savings just to buy Storage Pouch. How will you cultivate your martial arts in the future?"

"It's alright, the planet provides a monthly subsidy." Chen Lie didn't elaborate.

"Relying solely on the planet's monthly subsidies?"

Zhuo Danqiong was surprised that she, from a planet in the Ten-Star Alliance, was not as wealthy as someone from a barren planet in a Fringe Star Domain.

But thinking about it, it's not surprising. The other party is the number one in the Eastern Star Region. His home planet would sell everything to support him, while I am not even ranked on Changxia Star.

Is this the difference between a chicken's head and a phoenix's tail?

The saying "Better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix" still holds some truth.

"Brother... Brother Chen, is that you?"

Just then, a soft, sweet voice came from inside.

A girl of about fifteen or sixteen years old walked directly down from the shop.

Chen Lie turned his head and saw that the girl who came down was Chu Ling'er.

Chu Ling'er's face lit up with surprise when she saw Chen Lie.

Chen Lie hummed in agreement.

"Brother Chen, what are you doing here?" Chu Ling'er asked hurriedly.

"I'm here to buy a Storage Pouch."

"Storage Pouch? You need Storage Pouch?" Chu Ling'er said, "Or... how about I give you one?"

Do you have Storage Pouch?

"It wasn't me, it was my aunt. She felt that the Storage Pouch she had been using wasn't big enough, so she recently got a new one."

"I can get her unused Storage Pouch for you," Chu Ling'er said.

"No need, I've already bought it and paid."

Chen Lie refused outright. If Chu Ling'er were to ask her aunt for the Storage Pouch, it would be troublesome if they came knocking on their door.

He wasn't afraid of being confronted, but if it revealed Chu Ling'er's Consciousness Sea World, and that he had helped her with her Consciousness Spirit cultivation, then there would be no way to explain it.

What makes people from a barren planet capable of anything?

"Have you paid the bill?"

Chu Ling'er was taken aback. She turned her head and looked at the beautiful and quiet girl standing at the bottom of the stairs.

"Sheng Ya, can you do me a favor?"

The beautiful and serene young woman said, "We are friends. Please feel free to tell me anything you have."
