Lin Dong had no Dou Qi.
But the instant he touched the Storage Ring, his consciousness automatically sank into it!
It was as though Lin Dong had switched to a third-person view. The sensation was extraordinary.
Soon, the entire interior of the Storage Ring appeared before his "eyes."
It was a spacious area.
By Lin Dong's estimate, it was at least the size of a one-bedroom apartment with a living room.
As far as he knew, an ordinary Storage Ring with three or four square meters of space was already considered top-quality.
The size of a one-bedroom apartment?
He would never even have dared to imagine it!
If this thing appeared in the real world, even a Martial King would probably be tempted!
"As expected of the Nalan Family!"
Lin Dong clicked his tongue in wonder. Although the Nalan Family showed signs of decline, its foundations remained strong. A casual gift from them was worth more than many people could earn in several lifetimes.
As he marveled, Lin Dong inspected the collection inside the Storage Ring.
Clearly, Nalan Yanran was a meticulous girl who took care in everything she did.
Rather than piling her belongings haphazardly, she had carefully divided the contents of the Storage Ring into three sections.
One section held pills and medicinal ingredients.
Another held weapons and Dou Techniques.
The last held gold coins and jewelry.
The first thing Lin Dong noticed was the glittering, hill-sized pile of gold coins and jewelry.
By his rough estimate, the gold coins alone numbered at least a million!
Enough to buy a fourth-grade pill!
"Truly the princess of the Nalan Family."
Lin Dong rubbed his chin, clicking his tongue in wonder.
Even Xiao Yan, the clan head's son, received only a few dozen gold coins a month for living expenses.
Never mind Xiao Yan-even the Xiao Clan, which controlled a marketplace, made only a hundred thousand gold coins in annual net profit!
Nalan Yanran had over a million. That alone showed how doted upon she was.
With these gold coins, Lin Dong could vastly improve his life in the real world!
He had seen plenty of good things in Old Wang's office last time.
But his pockets had been empty, so he had been forced to give up on them.
Now that he had this money, he could finally go on a shopping spree without holding back!
At that thought,
the corners of Lin Dong's mouth lifted slightly, and he continued his inspection.
The weapons section.
Lin Dong saw a longsword engraved with the Misty Cloud Sect's emblem. It looked like a standard-issue sword provided by the sect.
Even so, he could still feel a bone-piercing chill coming from its blade!
That alone showed just how wealthy and powerful the Misty Cloud Sect was.
Even its ordinary standard-issue swords were beyond anything some nobody could hope to rival.
Besides the sword, there was also a dagger, every bit as sharp.
But what caught Lin Dong's interest most were the Dou Techniques laid out on the weapons stand.
"Flowing Cloud Sword"
[Level: High Yellow Tier] [Description: An advanced sword art taught to newly admitted disciples of the Misty Cloud Sect.] [Sword forms: Three forms-Floating Cloud, Brushing Cloud, and Flowing Cloud!] [Effect: Damage increases with each sword form: +15%, 25%, and 30%, respectively!]
Reading the True Sight Eye's analysis, Lin Dong marveled inwardly.
He had never expected this to be a sword technique with stacking damage.
If Nalan Yanran had managed to stack all three forms during their earlier clash, he probably would not have blocked it so easily.
It seemed the Misty Cloud Sect had genuine substance beyond its wealth!
This technique alone was enough for a family to establish itself in a small city!
And besides this technique, Nalan Yanran had nearly ten High Yellow-Tier Dou Techniques, including "Clear Wind Sword," "Cloud-Breaking Sword," and "Lotus Sword"!
It was no exaggeration to say that releasing all these Dou Techniques could plunge a small city into bloodshed!
They could even lead to entire families being wiped out!
Now that Lin Dong had them, even if he did not use them himself, he could sell them for a hefty profit!
At that thought, his gaze shifted to the pill section.
Compared with the Dou Techniques, these were the truly valuable treasures!
[Jade Spirit Fruit] [Age: 282 years] [Description: A spiritually attuned fruit that grows only beside cool, shaded mountain streams.] [Assessment: Clears the mind and calms the spirit. Commonly used as a primary ingredient for Heart-Calming Pills and Jade Spirit Pills.]
Lin Dong's True Sight Eye was incredibly convenient!
Even if he knew nothing, a single look told him exactly what an ingredient did and how old it was, with perfect clarity!
Nalan Yanran had collected quite a few medicinal ingredients.
There were twenty or thirty specimens over a hundred years old.
There were also four or five over a thousand years old.
There was even a rare ingredient over eight thousand years old, approaching ten thousand!
"Hm? What's this?"
At the very center of the pill section, Lin Dong discovered an antique-looking wooden box inlaid with gold. It looked extremely valuable.
Click!
The wooden box opened.
The next instant!
A plump, round pill came into view.
The pill was amber-gold, with four fine golden lines encircling it. A faint, gentle white mist swirled around it, and its rich fragrance cleared his mind and sent warmth rising through his body.
[Spirit-Cleansing Strength-Fixing Pill] [Grade: Fourth grade] [Description: An exceptional pill refined from Purple Lingzhi Core, millennium steel bone flower, spirit-rhyme herb, and a fourth-rank magic core!] [Effect: Enhances physical stamina and mental power.]
"A pill that boosts both stamina and mental power?!"
As Lin Dong read the True Sight Eye's analysis, delight flashed in his eyes. The grin tugging at his lips was harder to suppress than an AK's recoil.
In the real world, potions only enhanced a single attribute.
For example, a Stamina Potion could only increase stamina, while a Speed Potion could only increase speed.
Even so, those potions were outrageously expensive!
Lin Dong had never seen anything like the Spirit-Cleansing Strength-Fixing Pill, which enhanced two attributes at once!
Its value was unimaginable!
No wonder Nalan Yanran had stored it in such a precious wooden box.
He had hit the jackpot this time!
Thoroughly satisfied, Lin Dong prepared to leave the Storage Ring's space.
But just before leaving, he suddenly noticed several more wooden boxes in a corner, identical to the one he had just opened!
These boxes were secured even more carefully!
They were actually locked!
Nalan Yanran had not even locked up her fourth-grade pill, yet these wooden boxes had locks?!
"More treasures?!"
Lin Dong's face lit up with excitement. Nalan Yanran really was a rich girl. The deeper he dug, the more treasures he found!
Without hesitation, he forced open the remaining wooden boxes!
"This... this is?!"
The instant he opened them, Lin Dong eagerly peered inside. But when he saw their contents clearly, he froze on the spot, utterly motionless!
He was completely petrified!
Neigh!
The Dragon Horse whinnied and abruptly stopped.
Seeing this, Ge Ye hurriedly asked in concern, "Yanran, what happened? Why did you stop?!"
Nalan Yanran ignored him, silently tightening her grip on the reins as murderous intent surged wildly within her!
Although she had been treated like a princess since childhood, she had not lacked practical experience.
Every year, she would spend some time in the Magical Beast Forest with her master.
For convenience, she always stored her daily necessities in her Storage Ring.
Over time, it had become a habit. She always kept everyday supplies in her Storage Ring, along with... her undergarments!
At that thought, Nalan Yanran's nails dug into her flesh, drawing streams of blood.
Yet she felt no pain. Only murderous intent churned madly in her eyes!
Nalan Yanran turned to look toward Wutan City and swore inwardly, Lin Dong! You're dead!
