The Storage Ring That Would Not Open

"Yanran, what gift did Supreme Elder Lin give you?"

On the way back to the Pan Gate Base from the Trial Grounds, Xiao Yan asked Nalan Yanran beside him with some curiosity.

This is because he is unable to activate his Storage Ring, which is why he becomes curious.

"Ah, let me see... Hmm... There are so many Medicinal Pills, Dou Techniques, and... is this... Formation Disk?"

When Xiao Yan asked, Nalan Yanran looked through the Storage Ring that Xiao Lin had given her earlier and said...

In fact, since Nalan Yanran practices Sword Dao, and Xiao Lin himself doesn't know much about Sword Dao, he didn't know what to give her as a gift.

After thinking about it, I decided to just give them some general-purpose items.

As for general-purpose items, those are naturally Medicinal Pills, Dou Techniques, and Formation Disk.

However, although these are general-purpose items, Xiao Lin, being Dou Sheng, would certainly not produce anything shabby.

The Medicinal Pills he gave out were at least Tier 7 Alchemist, and quite a few were Eighth-Tier!

As for Dou Techniques, they consist of various wind-attribute techniques of Earth Rank and above, as well as Dou Techniques related to Sword Dao that he has collected.

Even the Formation Disk is level five!

Since she was going to be his future granddaughter-in-law, Xiao Lin naturally wouldn't be stingy.

"As expected of Supreme Elder Lin, what a generous gesture!"

After listening to what Nalan Yanran said, Xiao Yan couldn't help but sigh.

"Xiao Yan, actually, I've always wanted to say this: don't you think Supreme Elder Lin has been a little too kind to us...?"

After thinking for a long time, Nalan Yanran said hesitantly.

It can only be said that women are indeed much more sensitive than men in some matters.

At least Nalan Yanran sensed something was amiss.

"Oh? Is that so? Perhaps Supreme Elder Lin thinks we are very outstanding and have brought honor to the Jia Nan Academy, so he treats us differently."

Nalan Yanran: "..."

Nalan Yanran was somewhat speechless at Wei Xiao Yan's narcissism.

How thick-skinned do you have to be to praise yourself like that?

This guy is actually her fiancé!

Immediately, Nalan Yanran wore an expression that said, "You've defeated me."

"Haha, Yanran, I know what you're thinking. Actually, I sometimes feel the same way. But as long as Supreme Elder Lin doesn't have any ill intentions towards us, that's fine, isn't it?"

Why bother worrying about so much?

Seeing Nalan Yanran's speechless expression, Xiao Yan finally smiled wryly.

Xiao Yan wasn't truly slow-witted. Even if he hadn't noticed at first, how could he not have realized it after Nalan Yanran's reminder?

"What you said seems to make sense..."

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, which indicated he was no longer joking, Nalan Yanran paused for a moment, then revealed an expression of sudden realization.

And so, the two chatted all the way back to the Pan Gate Base.

Night fell quickly.

Inside the room, Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the bed as usual, holding the Storage Ring that Xiao Lin had given him earlier.

He had already tried, but no matter what he did, he couldn't open the Storage Ring. The restrictions on it were terrifyingly strong!

"Teacher, do you have a way to break the restrictions on this Storage Ring?"

Xiao Yan was clearly planning to cheat!

Supreme Elder Lin said that he could only open the Storage Ring when he reached the Dou Zun Realm, but Xiao Yan didn't believe in such nonsense.

The fact that Xiao Lin was being so mysterious only made Xiao Yan even more curious.

Once a person's curiosity is aroused, they will naturally be unable to resist exploring.

Xiao Yan felt that with Yao Lao's abilities, opening a Storage Ring should be a piece of cake!

"Hey~, why do you have to be in such a hurry?"

The figure of Yao Lao appeared in Xiao Yan's room, sighing helplessly.

"There's nothing I can do, teacher. Supreme Elder Lin gave Yanran so many wonderful things, of course I was tempted! Now I'm like someone guarding a mountain of treasures, unable to use them. How can I not be anxious?"

Xiao Yan wore an expression that seemed perfectly natural.

"Fine, since you've put it that way, let me try it."

Isn't the Yao Lao curious?

That's obviously impossible!

He could sense that Supreme Elder Lin of the Jia Nan Academy possessed unfathomable strength!

In that case, what he gives away must be something good.

Nalan Yanran has already verified this.

So, despite his complaints, Yao Lao was also extremely curious about what was inside the Storage Ring.

However, after Xiao Yan handed him the Storage Ring, and he tried it out...

"Can't open..."

"Huh? Even you can't open it, teacher?"

As Yao Lao finished speaking, Xiao Yan was stunned.

With his teacher's abilities, how could he not even open a Storage Ring?

"It seems that when Supreme Elder Lin of your Jia Nan Academy gave you the Storage Ring, he was prepared to prevent me from opening it for you."

After pondering for a moment, the Yao Lao spoke.

In fact, it was exactly the reason that the Yao Lao had guessed!

This shows that Xiao Lin was indeed preventing Xiao Yan from cheating and had Yao Lao help him.

Secondly, even if Xiao Yan opened the Storage Ring with the help of Yao Lao, the things inside were not things he could use right now.

You must know, the Storage Ring contains the Dou Sheng Corpse!

The Dou Sheng Corpse was left behind by Xiao Lin after he killed Hun Zhan.

Even in the Central Plains, the Dou Sheng Corpse are a rare sight.

Its value is so great that even in the present day, many parties would vie for it!

Dou Sheng is, after all, the pinnacle of existence on the Dou Qi Continent.

Even mere bones contain boundless power.

If the will of a deceased Dou Sheng has not completely dissipated, it can continue to fight based on instinct once it is activated!

It can be said that even the Dou Sheng Corpse could unleash a power that Dou Venerable could not match.

Furthermore, if you master the method, you can also refine the Dou Sheng Corpse into a puppet, just like Xiao Yan in the Original Work refined the North Dragon King into a puppet.

This means you'll have a Dou Sheng Bodyguard from now on!

Furthermore, through certain methods, it is possible to activate and acquire various Dou Techniques that the Dou Sheng Corpse) possessed during their lifetime.

Of course, if the Dou Sheng Corpse are well preserved, you can also improve your cultivation by absorbing the marrow from the Dou Sheng Corpse.

Xiao Lin only killed Hun Zhan, but didn't do anything to his corpse.

This shows that the Dou Sheng Corpse definitely still contain a considerable amount of bone marrow.

However, these were all secondary to Xiao Yan.

What's truly most important to him is that he can use this Dou Sheng Corpse to resurrect Yao Lao even more perfectly!

In the Original Work, Yao Lao's resurrection only used some of the bones from Dou Sheng, which immediately gave him the strength of Half-Saint.

If we were to revive Yao Lao using a complete Dou Sheng Corpse, Yao Lao would be guaranteed to possess the strength of Dou Sheng the moment he was revived!

This is something that needs no further explanation.

Yao Lao has done so much for Xiao Yan, and this can be considered Xiao Lin's way of repaying him.
