This beast storage ring was something Ling Xiao snatched from the Beast King Palace’s disciples.
Its principle was similar to a storage ring, except that the beast storage ring was a space for keeping pet beasts. Therefore, it had special arrays so that the pet beasts could survive inside.
“Well, it’s inconvenient to stay outside at all times.”
Venerable Yunan nodded in agreement, then let Ling Xiao put him into the beast storage ring.
Although Ling Xiao’s Landscape World could also store living creatures, there was a problem. Once you entered the Landscape World, you would merge with the Landscape Martial Soul and become an existence fused with Ling Xiao’s soul.
For instance, that Ancient Golden Dragon. It was already impossible for it to exist by itself. If it wanted to appear in this world, it could only appear in the form of Ling Xiao’s martial soul.
This was the case after the Landscape Martial Soul and Ling Xiao’s soul were completely integrated. It had benefits, but there were also some inconveniences.
Naturally, even if there were no such issues, Ling Xiao wouldn’t dare to put Venerable Yuan in so easily.
The Landscape Martial Soul was still a great secret of Ling Xiao. He wouldn’t let others know this secret so easily.
That includes his Master.
Because Ling Xiao truly couldn’t guarantee that Venerable Yuan still wouldn’t have a change of heart in front of the Landscape Martial Soul.
After setting Venerable Yuan’s matter, Ling Xiao closed his eyes and rested while cultivating. Although he was very tired after a day, the resting methods of martial artists were very different from that of ordinary people.
Especially for the Transcendent Realm martial artists, they just needed to sit cross-legged, and let true essence circulate a few times within the body to get rid of exhaustion.
The night passed quietly.
When the sunlight illuminated the entire Sand Family Fortress, Ling Xiao also slowly opened his eyes.
After the night of cultivation, <Soul Dice> and <Shadow Transformation Sword Art> had already reached the peak state. He estimated that they would breakthrough soon.
Naturally, <Nine Meridians Qi Sword> had made the most progress.
In just one night, he had already comprehended the second qi sword.
The more qi swords, the more flexible the use.
And the more difficult for enemies to guard against it.
While cultivating <Nine Meridians Qi Sword>, Ling Xiao had also noticed that his cultivation had improved at some point.
Mid Rank Three Transcendent Realm!
He hadn’t intentionally cultivated, but he actually made such a breakthrough.
It seemed that his current cultivation method was truly on the right track. This time, following Master Venerable Yuan, although he might encounter some dangers, such as being targeted by Elder Jin and others, such a fast cultivation speed was truly worth the risk.
Besides, just because the other party wanted to kill him, would they succeed?
Truly laughable!
He, Ling Xiao, would truly make those people, who plotted to murder him, pay a high price for it!
“It has gotten lighter!”
After getting off the bed, Ling Xiao realized that the pressure brought about by the Refine Array Stone had lightened.
He seemed to have already gotten used to the weight of two thousand pounds.
“Let’s adjust it to three thousand pounds!”
Venerable Yuan had already explained the method of adjusting weight to Ling Xiao. Otherwise, if Venerable Yuan had to worry about even such trivial matters, then he would be exhausted to death.
When the weight of the Refine Array Stone was adjusted to three thousand pounds, Ling Xiao obviously felt that his body had sunk suddenly and his face turned a little red.
At that moment, even his breathing was a little rapid.
However, after a while, although it was still quite hard, it was not impossible for him to walk.
The weight of three thousand pounds was just right. It could put a lot of pressure on Ling Xiao without affecting his normal movements.
The depths of Crouching Dragon Mountain Range were full of dangers. There were basically no evil beasts here. All existences were basically fierce beasts or stronger demon beasts.
Even in Ancient Golden Dragon form, if he encountered a higher-leveled fierce beast, he could only run away to save his life, not to mention if he encountered demon beasts.
This was also why Venerable Yuan had to accompany him.
Ling Xiao alone could resolve the usual dangers, but during the life-threatening dangers, Venerable Yuan would naturally take action.
Ling Xiao understood Venerable Yuan’s meaning clearly. This trip to Crouching Dragon Mountain Range was basically an adventure for Ling Xiao. Only like this, he could temper himself and his abilities while facing dangers by himself.
Even if Ling Xiao encountered a high-leveled fierce beast or even powerful demon beast, as long as Ling Xiao’s life wasn’t in danger, and he could still escape, Venerable Yuan wouldn’t take action.
Naturally, in order to ensure safety, martial artists would usually choose to form a group when entering the depths of Crouching Dragon Mountain Range.
With four or five or even over ten Transcendent Realm martial artists traveling together, even if they encountered a relatively powerful fierce beast, they would have the power to fight.
Moreover, that might be great training.
Because if a single person encountered a relatively higher-leveled fierce beast, his first choice would be to escape. But if there were many people, then they could cooperate with each other to fight, which was also very effective in honing combat skills.
Therefore, Ling Xiao planned to find some martial artists to travel with.
In any case, he had Refine Array Stone with him, and the purpose of traveling together was to hone his <Nine Meridians Qi Sword> and combat skills.
Since he couldn’t get rid of the Refine Array Stone, he wouldn’t try to remove it as much as possible.
However, it was a bit troublesome to find other martial artists to travel together.
Generally, there were four types of martial artist groups.
First type was a group of like-minded martial artists;
Second type was a group of martial artists from the same sects;
Third type was a group of martial artists that came together temporarily for the same goal;
And the last type was a group of martial artists that were employed by certain people or a group. For instance, that medical store Ling Xiao had destroyed before would employ martial artists to go into the depths of the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range to search for herbs. Some business groups and families would also employ martial artists when they had something to do.
In fact, Ling Xiao could have joined any type of group, but there was a problem now.
After all, he had offended Fairy Linglong yesterday. Whether anyone would take him in a group or not was a problem.
But if it truly didn’t work, then he would just enter the mountain by himself. That was also not a big deal.
After leaving the inn, Ling Xiao went straight to the entrance of the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range.
There was a tea house here. Many martial artists, who were going to enter the Crouching Dragon Mountain Range, would gather here and form a group.
The tea house was truly bustling. It was crowded even outside.
The martial artists were standing, sitting, or chatting leisurely about entering the mountain or how to form a group.
“Noble son, do you want to join our team?”
Ling Xiao was planning to see if he could find a suitable team to join when he suddenly heard a voice.
Fairy Linglong?
Honestly speaking, Ling Xiao was a little surprised. Yesterday, he had thoroughly offended this Fairy Linglong, but this person was inviting him to join her team today. If someone said that there was no scheme here, then he would never believe it.
However, he was not the kind of person who was afraid of things. In this case, so what if he joined? He could always resolve this trouble.
Naturally, he hoped that it was just gauging the heart of a gentleman with one’s own mean measure. After all, it would be a bit of a pity to kill a beauty of Fairy Linglong’s level with his own hands.
With one less beauty in this world, there would be one less color. He hoped that this Fairy Linglong wouldn’t do such a foolish thing.
