Chapter 161 Dou Zun Legacy

Chapter 161 Dou Zun Legacy
After hearing Yao Chen's analysis, Xiao Yixiang and Qing Lin couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.

A Dou Zun-level expert is an extremely rare and powerful existence, even in the Zhongzhou continent where there are so many powerful people.

Even if a Dou Zun-level warrior has just advanced, his power should not be underestimated.

I didn't expect that this strong man would die in this Monster Mountain Range. It is really sad.

After hearing what Yao Chen said, Qing Lin looked at Yao Chen curiously and asked, "Master, is there any powerful treasure in this treasure chest?"

Yao Chen stroked his beard and said with a smile: "It's hard to say, but since it is a treasure chest left by a Dou Zun strongman, I believe it will not disappoint us."

Qing Lin's eyes sparkled, and he said expectantly, "Then let's open it and take a look!"

Yao Chen nodded, looked at Xiao Ling and said, "Xiao Ling, go open the treasure chest and see what kind of opportunity is hidden inside."

After hearing Yao Chen's words, Xiao Ling turned his gaze to the treasure chest that was emitting an alluring light. He took a deep breath and slowly walked forward.

The treasure chest had no lock. He gently opened it, and light instantly burst out, revealing several items before them.

At the top of the treasure chest, there was a spiritual plant emitting a strange light. Its leaves were as crystal clear as jade, and there was a faint purple aura surrounding the roots.

When Yao Chen saw this spiritual plant, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "This is the Purple Soul Spirit Heart Grass, an extremely rare treasure that can enhance soul power. It has an excellent effect on nourishing and strengthening the soul. I didn't expect to see it here."

Xiao Ling looked at the purple soul grass that was emitting strange light, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Master Yao, I have never heard of this purple soul grass. What is its origin?"

After reading Yao Chen's alchemy notes, Xiao Ling also learned about many rare medicinal materials.

However, in this dazzling list of medicinal herbs, there is not a single word about the herb in front of me.

This situation made Xiao Ling develop a strong interest in the mystery and preciousness of this unknown medicinal herb.

Yao Chen stroked his beard and patiently explained, "Xiao Ling, this Purple Soul Spirit Heart Grass is a rare spiritual plant rarely seen in the world. It usually grows in places with extremely rich spiritual energy and extremely secretive environments."

"Because it has extremely stringent requirements for growth conditions, it is extremely rare. This spiritual plant contains powerful and pure soul power, and has extraordinary effects on nourishing and strengthening the soul of practitioners."

Yao Chen pondered for a moment and continued, "If this Purple Soul Spirit Heart Grass is used with a unique medicine refining technique, it can be refined into a spiritual medicine called "Purple Soul Heart Pill."

"This pill has a significant effect on improving soul power, especially for those practitioners at the spiritual level. It is a rare help. After taking it, it can not only stabilize the soul, but also broaden the breadth of the soul to a certain extent, laying a solid foundation for future practice."

"It doesn't work for me, but in your hands, it works great."

After Yao Chen finished explaining, Xiao Ling's eyes flashed with light. His soul realm had just reached the peak of the early stage of the spiritual realm not long ago. If he could really refine the kind of elixir according to what Yao Chen said, then his soul power would undoubtedly be rapidly improved.

Xiao Ling gently took out an exquisite jade box and carefully placed the Purple Soul Spirit Heart Grass into the box. Then, a flash of white light flashed in his hand, and he put the jade box into the storage ring.

After putting it away, Xiao Ling asked again out of curiosity: "Master Yao, such a rare medicinal material does not seem to be suitable for growing here. How could it appear in the treasure chest of this Dou Zun strongman?"

Yao Chen continued, "I think this Dou Zun strongman knew its value and kept it, perhaps to use it to break through the soul realm at a critical moment. What a pity..."

Without talking any more about medicinal herbs, Xiao Ling moved his gaze away from Yao Chen and returned to the other items in the treasure chest.

In addition to the spiritual plant, there were several items in the treasure chest that emitted different lights, and it seemed that each of them contained extraordinary power.

Yao Chen also followed Xiao Ling's gaze and began to explore these treasures one by one.

The first thing that catches your eye is an antique ring with intricate patterns engraved on it, exuding a faint sense of mystery.

Yao Chen picked up the ring, examined it carefully and said, "This is a high-level space ring. Although its capacity is not large among high-level storage rings, it is very concealed and very suitable for hiding some important items. It should be the storage tool used by the Dou Zun when he was alive."

"However, the items in the ring seem to have been sorted out by someone, and now there is nothing inside."

Yao Chen handed the ancient ring to Qing Lin and said with a smile: "Qing Lin, this space ring is handed over to you. Although its capacity is not large, it has excellent concealment. For you, it is a good protection and storage tool."

Qing Lin took the ring, surprise flashed in her eyes. She gently put the ring on her finger, feeling the power of space contained in it. Her gratitude to Yao Chen was beyond words: "Thank you, Master. I will make good use of it."

Afterwards, Xiao Ling and Yao Chen continued to explore other treasures in the treasure chest.

In addition to the high-level storage ring, there is also a black jade pendant with some complex patterns engraved on it.

After careful observation, Yao Chen said, "This jade pendant seems to have the effect of concealing aura and defense. It is also a rare treasure."

Xiao Ling handed the jade pendant to Xiao Yixian, who accepted it with a smile.

Xiao Ling and Yao Chen continued searching in the treasure chest and soon found several ancient martial arts secrets and some bottles and jars of elixirs.

In addition, there are several rare medicinal herbs and some magic cores emitting a faint light, each of which is a rare treasure in the Northwest Continent.

Yao Chen picked up a bottle of pills and observed them carefully. His expression changed slightly. "These pills seem to have been improperly stored. Some of them have turned into powder and turned into poison that is harmful to the human body."

Xiao Ling carefully picked out the intact pills and put them away, while those poisonous powders that had gone bad were handed over to Xiao Yixian to deal with.

A glimmer of excitement flashed in Xiao Yixian's eyes. She took the powder, sniffed it gently, and then said with a smile: "Although these poisons are powerful, they do not pose a threat to me. Instead, I can absorb and refine them and transform them into my strength."

Xiao Ling nodded to show his understanding, and reminded: "But you still have to be careful and don't take too many risks. Since these poisons can be used by you, then they have found a good destination."

Afterwards, several people turned their attention to the secret manuals of martial arts.

Xiao Ling read through them one by one, appreciating them carefully, but finally shook his head gently:

"These skills seem to be what that Dou Zun strongman practiced when he was alive. The highest level is only the middle level of the earth rank, which is not very suitable for our attributes. For my current strength improvement, the effect is limited."

After saying that, Xiao Ling put these martial arts secrets into his ring. Although they were not crucial to him, they might be useful in the future.

Xiao Ling carefully put all kinds of treasures into the space ring one by one. All kinds of items disappeared in the light one by one, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face. Xiao Ling gently stroked his chin, thinking to himself: "The legacy of this Dou Zun strongman is indeed extraordinary. I didn't expect that there are even two seventh-level magic cores. When I master the method of refining the Heavenly Demon Puppet, these magic cores will be useful."

When all the treasures were properly placed, Xiao Ling's gaze involuntarily turned to the body of Dou Zun lying on the ground.

The body seemed like a sleeping giant. Although it had no breath of life, it still exuded awe-inspiring majesty.

A hint of heat flashed in Xiao Ling's eyes, and he was thinking about how to refine this body into the legendary Heavenly Demon Puppet. Even if such materials could not directly refine a Heavenly Grade Demon Puppet, a peak Earth Grade one should be more than enough.

He stepped towards the body, ready to take action, but at this moment, his eyes accidentally swept under the body.

There, something seemed out of place in this cold stone chamber.

Xiao Ling squatted down and looked carefully, only to find that under the body, there was a thin notebook lying there quietly.

This notebook has been around for so many years that the color of its cover has been worn away by time, leaving only a deep dark brown, like the color of the earth.

It lay there quietly, without any light or sound, but there seemed to be a mysterious power that made it appear unusually hidden in this dusty space.

If it weren't for Xiao Ling's sharp eyes, he would probably have missed this inconspicuous note.

Xiao Ling carefully pulled the notebook out from under the body. The moment he touched it, he felt an ancient and heavy texture, as if the notebook carried countless secrets and stories.

The texture on the cover is already blurred, but the rustic sealing line and slightly yellowed paper reveal that this notebook is very old.

Turning over a page, I saw densely packed small characters, which looked like ancient runes or the wisdom of our ancestors, flickering alluringly in the dim light.

Although Xiao Ling's movements were gentle, they still attracted the attention of the other three people in the quiet stone chamber.

Yao Chen, Xiao Yixiang and Qing Lin all raised their heads, their eyes following Xiao Ling's movements, and finally focused on the notebook that had been eroded by time.

They looked at each other, walked closer tacitly, surrounded Xiao Ling, and curiously explored this old notebook that seemed to contain countless secrets.

Everyone held their breath, looking forward to Xiao Ling's next discovery.

After some reading, Xiao Ling realized that this seemingly ordinary book was actually a record of the life trajectory of a Dou Zun powerful man.

Under Xiao Ling's fingertips, the pages of the diary slowly unfolded. The words seemed like messengers traveling through time and space, telling the legendary experiences of the powerful Dou Zun.

It turns out that this Dou Zun strongman is named Mo Yun. He was born in the western region of Zhongzhou and was once a gifted cultivator.

After Mo Yun broke through to Dou Huang, he was fortunate to follow a peerless strongman who had reached the peak of the ninth Dou Zun. Under the command of that Dou Zun, Mo Yun experienced countless battles and adventures, and his strength improved day by day.

However, during an exploration of ancient ruins, Mo Yun got separated from the team and unfortunately encountered a powerful enemy. Although he escaped at all costs, he was seriously injured.

He fled here, hoping to recover from his injuries, but found that his injuries were too severe and he could not recover.

In the last moments of his life, he placed some of his treasures in a treasure chest and left this diary, hoping that someone destined to find it would inherit his legacy.

At the end of the diary, Mo Yun recorded the origin of the Shadow Python in detail.

When his life was about to come to an end, he placed this precious monster egg outside the cave, hoping that it could hatch in a wider world and continue his will.

After learning about Mo Yun's life experience, everyone couldn't help but sigh at the fickleness of fate.

At this time, Xiao Ling turned his attention to the Shadow Demon Python. He said to Qing Lin, "The origin of this Shadow Demon Python must be complicated. Since it was hatched from the eggs that Mo Yun Dou Zun placed outside before his death, perhaps it also hides some secrets."

Qinglin nodded and tried to communicate with the Shadow Python. The Shadow Python seemed to understand what Qinglin meant, and a trace of reminiscence flashed in its eyes.

Through telepathy, Qinglin learned that the Shadow Python had been living deep in the Demon Beast Mountains since it was hatched.

It inherited a trace of Mo Yun Dou Zun's soul imprint and possessed wisdom and potential far beyond that of ordinary magical beasts.

Xiao Ling thought for a moment and said, "In this case, we should train this Shadow Demon Python well. Maybe it can become a great help to us in the future."

After hearing what Xiao Ling said, Qing Lin nodded vigorously, stroked the head of the Shadow Demon Python, smiled sweetly at Xiao Ling, and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely train it well."

Xiao Ling's gaze fell on the body of Dou Zun, and a feeling of respect surged in his heart.

He knew that this body was not only the remains of a powerful man, but also a treasure that countless practitioners dreamed of.

Xiao Ling carefully collected Dou Zun's remains, took off his clothes, placed them on the ground, and piled up a cenotaph.

I bowed three times to express my sincere respect for the passing of this powerful man, and at the same time express my gratitude for the precious legacy left by this Dou Zun.

After finishing everything in the cave, Xiao Ling, Qing Lin, Xiao Yixian, and Shadow Demon Python set off on their return journey. They left the hidden cave and slowly walked towards the direction of Canaan College.

On the way back to Canaan College, Xiao Ling also helped Qing Lin to tame three snake monsters as pets.

They are "Purple Flame Charm Snake", "Ice Soul Cold Snake" and "Wind Wing Spirit Snake". Their strength has all reached the fifth level, which has greatly improved Qinglin's combat power.

After a journey, they finally arrived at the space barrier outside the inner courtyard.

Xiao Ling stretched out his hand and waved it gently. In an instant, the space twisted, as if it was torn apart by an invisible force.

Following his movements, Qing Lin, Xiao Yixiang, and the Shadow Demon Python were all surrounded by this force, and then they entered the inner courtyard together.

At this time, it was evening in the academy. The afterglow of the setting sun shone on Xiao Ling and his companions, adding a touch of mysterious glow to them.
