It was only because Huang Feihu trusted Li Xingkong that he was able to move freely within this storehouse. If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't even be able to enter this small world of the storehouse.
But it was precisely because of this trust that Li Xingkong's opinion of him rose even higher.
This small world of treasures contains countless rare and exotic items, most of which Li Xingkong has never seen before.
All sorts of strange materials and magical artifacts were everywhere, and secret techniques and cultivation experiences were compiled into a vast sea of books.
However, in Li Xingkong's eyes, all of this was merely novelty.
There's no other reason than that Li Xingkong's deductive abilities are extremely powerful. He can create things out of thin air and make them exist from nothing by just glancing at most of the rare materials present, without even expending much effort.
To him, these treasures were just readily available items, so they naturally didn't arouse much interest in him.
If Flying Cloud Pass had a task where you could exchange treasures for contribution points, Li Xingkong could certainly show them what it meant to create something out of nothing.
As for those cultivation techniques and insights, they are just a drop in the ocean compared to the cultivation technique pool on the system's side. Yuanjun's cultivation technique pool is simply too vast, and almost all the cultivation techniques and documents under the Jade Void Palace have been included in this pool.
Li Xingkong wasn't really interested in what was inside Flying Cloud Pass; if he wanted to see it, he could just have the system bring it up.
The most striking impression Li Xingkong got from this small world of treasures was its sheer wonder. As for its profound depth, one only needed to look at the cultivators who were struggling to contribute to the cause. Any single item in this treasure trove was something that ordinary cultivators would have to work hard for hundreds or even thousands of years to acquire.
Its foundation is certainly profound, but it is far inferior to that of the Yuanjun.
Li Xingkong flew slowly through this small world, expanding his Divine Sense and deeply penetrating every part of it.
He skipped over ordinary objects, but took a closer look at materials he had never seen before, analyzing their structure. After the analysis, he used his Manipulation of Creation abilities to create a few pieces based on the knowledge he had gleaned.
Given Li Xingkong's current level of expertise, this level of analysis wouldn't take much time at all. With just a glance, the materials seemed to multiply as if they had entered a treasure trove, multiplying many times over.
Li Xingkong's actions were not out of boredom, but rather to imprint all these unfamiliar substances and materials into his memory through this practice. In the future, if he ever wanted to forge a magical artifact, he could simply create the materials at any time.
Of course, practicing was just a side activity; Li Xingkong's main task was to find the Concept Pearl he needed from this vast collection.
This task was akin to finding a needle in a haystack. The tiny beads were hidden among the stored items; if it were someone else, they would have no idea how long it would take to find them.
Fortunately, Li Xingkong had seen what these Concept Pearl looked like before. Although the appearance of beads formed from different concepts may be different, the power of the concepts they contain cannot be ignored.
In the fifth year after entering the Treasury World, Li Xingkong found his first Concept Pearl.
When Li Xingkong found it, it was hidden among a pile of magical beads, easily mistaken for the real thing. If Li Xingkong hadn't used his Divine Sense to investigate carefully, he would have been fooled by it.
" Damage Reduction "
The bead had a dark blue hue and looked heavy, as if it contained a cat's eye stone. Upon closer inspection, it was determined to be a defensive-oriented bead.
"Excellent, this saves us from having to bestow a blessing again."
Instead of refining it now, given the inconvenience of this place, Li Xingkong handed the bead to the soldiers guarding the entrance.
The soldiers naturally understood that this bead was one of the items Li Xingkong was looking for. One of them picked it up with both hands and then took the bead to complete the formalities.
Although the objects in this small world are disorganized, the garrison at Flying Cloud Pass must have considered this issue when it was created.
The small world has a world will, or rather, when this small world of storage was created, a Heavenly Dao was specially created to manage it.
It records everything that appears in the small world, but that's all it does. This Heavenly Dao has very limited authority; it can't even manipulate any object in the small world.
It's simply a bookkeeping and management service.
All items must be registered at this Heavenly Dao office when they enter or leave the warehouse. Even Li Xingkong must follow this entry and exit procedure.
Having entrusted the first bead, Li Xingkong's search speed increased significantly. He had already analyzed most of the materials in this small world; now, he only needed to find the beads.
"Another one, this one is... Seven Emotions?"
Li Xingkong held the second bead he had found, his expression somewhat strange.
How could this thing be found in the Era of Chaos? What kind of combat power does it possess?
However, holding this bead, Li Xingkong was reminded of his relatives and friends who were still in the Primordial Universe.
With Huan protecting them, those two are definitely chosen ones, it would be difficult for them to get into trouble. In addition, with the methods left by Li Xingkong, it's possible that when Li Xingkong returns to his era, he will see his old acquaintances ascend here.
You're overthinking it. I'll take it.
Li Xingkong's path to Human Immortal is destined to be different, with an emphasis on accepting all comers.
After an unknown amount of time, Li Xingkong pulled out another one.
" HP Lock... not bad, another defensive concept. But at this rate, we don't have many offensive options yet, and we've already turned ourselves into turtles."
Despite saying that, Li Xingkong put it away very quickly.
He had already searched through the entire storehouse; obtaining these three Concept Pearl was truly no easy feat.
There was no need to look at it a second time. Li Xingkong went through the formalities and took the three coins out.
After leaving the small world, Li Xingkong didn't keep his soldiers waiting for so many years in vain. He used some of his abilities to conjure several pills to enhance their cultivation. Only then did Li Xingkong take the beads he had obtained and return to the laboratory.
"Oh dear, I thought you'd forgotten there was someone here!"
Li Xingkong returned to the laboratory, and before he even landed, he heard Liu Shinian's voice.
"How could that be? It was just a little unexpected."
Thinking about it, I realized I completely forgot to tell her before I left. I'm so sorry.
"Hehe, what did I say? I could tell at a glance that this person is a promising talent."
The old man standing to the side chuckled. Over the years, Liu Shinian had been a frequent visitor, and the two had become close friends despite their age difference.
"It's more than that! You didn't tell me you finished the experiment a long time ago. Do you know how nerve-wracking it is to receive a free contribution every month?"
Liu Shinian wrinkled his nose.
She had somehow exploited a strange loophole. Although her recruitment mission order was issued by Li Xingkong, he obtained it from Huang Feihu Li Xingkong. This mission had a very high level of authority, on par with Li Xingkong's experimental missions.
Although Li Xingkong had submitted his experimental task, her assistant's assignment was not over. When Liu Shinian learned that Li Xingkong's experiment was completed and the laboratory was empty, she realized that she was still receiving her monthly contribution as usual!
She had also reported this to the logistics department, but the task was too high a level of authority, and only Huang Feihu could make the decision himself. As the garrison commander, he naturally couldn't be bothered with such a trivial matter.
Thus, Liu Shinian became a bug in Flying Cloud Pass.
You don't have to do anything, but you still get paid.
