The toad said, "The other one disappeared for almost a month. When he returned, he was already at the seventh level of Qi Refining. He said he also encountered those orbs of light and was lucky enough not to be torn apart. He fell into one of them and found some pills and some iron blocks inside."

"It took him a whole month to fully digest the effects of the medicine before he came out through a back door."

He said this with no covetousness in his voice, only fear: "And apart from those two, everyone else has completely disappeared and hasn't returned yet. They must be dead!"

De San was burning with fervor, yearning for a breakthrough and now impatient: "They're too weak to handle this incredible opportunity! Merely at the third or fourth level of Qi Refining dare to covet such a treasure? If they don't die, who will?"

"But we are different. Gravity can't do anything to us! No one is allowed to leave. We're moving forward. Today I'm going to see for myself what that storm is all about!"

As he spoke, he took the lead and stepped forward. Although the snake demons were afraid, they were also excited and expectant.

However, the demon cultivators outside the Yellow Python clan were all filled with reluctance. They knew how greedy these guys were, and even if they obtained something good, they would probably have to hand it over in the end, making themselves the ones who benefited.

With so little benefit to be had and such high risks, who would be willing to do it?

Immediately, their faces turned resentful, and their discontent and anger began to fester.

Taking in the expressions on their faces, Yun Chu'an remained calm and used his "all-powerful hands" to stuff one Vajra Talisman after another into their hands, signaling them to be patient and use them to save their lives if danger arose later.

This slightly eased the resentment of the group. The two sheep demons looked confused, while the caterpillar nodded repeatedly with gratitude, thanking him for saving their lives.

Time passed second by second, and before they could wait long, the spatial storm arrived.

A hurricane descended from the sky, swirling and distorting the entire space, chilling everyone present to the bone. Yun Chu'an looked up at the storm, squinting his eyes, feeling a sense of familiarity with the scene.

Before he could think any further, the storm had already descended upon the earth. Without exception, everyone was swept up in it and vanished into thin air, leaving no trace behind!

The surrounding space was pitch black. He felt his body moving at high speed, to the point that he felt his scalp being torn apart and tingling.

Moreover, he felt several forces pulling him at the same time, as if trying to drag him in different directions.

He endured the excruciating pain that felt like his body was being torn apart, and glanced around. He saw that the space was indeed as dark as the poisonous toad had described. Only in front of him were several rows of circular light sources, like a flashing door, releasing a strong pulling force, as if trying to suck him into his location!

His body was rapidly approaching, and the closer he got, the greater the force became, as if he truly intended to tear him apart!

His cultivation level was too low to resist the tearing forces from different directions, so he had no choice but to take out a Vajra Talisman and stick it on himself!

hum-

Instantly, his entire body became indestructible, and these opposing forces of gravity could no longer affect him in the slightest.

The light sources in front vary in size and brightness, and their pulling forces also differ accordingly.

Yun Chu'an maintained his indestructible golden body, consuming talismans one after another. Even a full-force attack from a ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator could hardly harm him.

He remained motionless, letting the gravitational pull pull him along. Finally, of all these light sources, the largest, brightest, and also the one with the strongest gravity won, pulling his body towards it.

As his body passed through the light source, all gravity vanished instantly, leaving only one dominant force.

The surrounding environment changed again, and gradually a light source appeared. His body fell from mid-air, dispelling his golden body mid-air, and landed on a soft grassy field, rolling forward once before letting out a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, everything went well.

On this point, Diao Desan's judgment was not wrong. The threat of those gravitational forces would at most harm low-level cultivators. Even if they were only at the Qi Refining stage, as long as their cultivation level was higher, they could pass the test smoothly.

He stood up from the ground and looked around. The surrounding environment startled him, and then his expression became somewhat subtle.

Judging from the environment of this space alone, it could be described as a paradise of birdsong and fragrant flowers. The azure sky was crystal clear, and although there was no sun in sight, it still illuminated the entire space brightly.

Chapter 175 Should we just kill him?

A winding pebble path lies before you, lined with grass and wildflowers. Further on, a beautiful pavilion stands on a hillside. In your leisure time, enjoying the breeze, drinking tea, or playing chess in this pavilion would be a delightful and pleasant experience.

If you ignore the toad's leg, broken body, or head that appears every now and then on the surrounding grass.

Yun Chu'an's gaze swept over the mutilated remains of these toad monsters, many of which still bore dark red bloodstains, a horrifying sight.

It's easy to imagine that they were also sent to that pitch-black space by the spatial storm, and then, unable to resist the tearing of different light sources, their bodies were torn to pieces. Part of them fell here, while the rest entered other spaces.

But in any case, all of these guys are dead and can never go back.

Looking at these things, recalling the scene just now, and combining it with the toad's description, Yun Chu'an couldn't help but have a bold guess.

If I'm not mistaken, this should be an extra-large storage bag, but it's now damaged and its functions have been compromised, which is why these uncontrollable errors are occurring one after another.

He speculated, based on his knowledge and understanding. Zhu Yunqing had already explained the working principle of the storage bag to him when he received it.

In short, at the entrance of the storage bag, there is a display shelf-like spatial structure, like a "catalog" for this dimensional bag, with one address after another marked on it.

Following this "directory" are individual compressed spaces, each marked with a corresponding address, containing the supplies needed by the cultivators.

When a cultivator wants to retrieve something from their storage bag, they input a wisp of spiritual energy into the corresponding address marker in the catalog. The storage bag's magic array is then activated, and the item in the corresponding space is automatically teleported to their hands.

Conversely, when cultivators want to store something, they only need to channel spiritual energy into it to activate the corresponding address marker, and the item in their possession will be teleported into the corresponding space.

This is how storage bags work, and in the current situation, everything seems to fit perfectly.

However, this dimensional bag must have been damaged, which is why the situation just now occurred. The teleportation function was activated haphazardly, which created the spatial storm. During the storage process, all the storage spaces emitted gravity at the same time, which led to a series of tragedies.

Fortunately, it was just a storage bag, so the gravity wasn't particularly strong, and his golden body talisman was able to block it.

And he himself entered the largest storage space.

I wonder what awaits me ahead.

A sense of anticipation ignited in his heart, and he stepped forward.

However, he had only taken two steps when a scream suddenly came from behind him, as if something heavy had fallen to the ground.

He turned his head, and a figure he absolutely didn't want to see got up from the ground, looking disheveled but trying to maintain a facade, and greeted him: "Hey, Mickey, you've come here too?"

That was none other than De San, who had been constantly doubting and finding fault with him.

This snake demon also arrived in this space. He had the highest cultivation level. In the spatial turbulence just now, he was not worried about his safety at all. All he was thinking about was entering the largest space and making as much profit as he wanted.

He was eager to advance to the Foundation Establishment stage, and his greed made him willing to take the risk. He defied the gravitational pull and struggled to enter this space, simply because he guessed that the best treasures should be stored here.

He was lucky and succeeded in the end, which made him even more convinced that he was the chosen one here.

Without a moment's delay, as soon as he entered, disregarding his physical weakness, he began searching through the pavilion, and surprisingly, he found quite a few good things.

When he got up with joy and satisfaction, he found that Yun Chuan—or rather, Mickey—had also come here, and his mood immediately darkened.

He maintained a smile on his face, but his mind was racing with calculations.

Why is this guy here?

What qualifications did he have to get here?

Was it just good luck?

He was unsure; his triangular eyes gleamed with a constant flickering light in the pupils.

Well, it's fine anyway, since he's so weak, he's not qualified to compete with me for the treasure.

My foolish younger brother is always easily fooled by him, so this is a good opportunity to teach him a lesson.

As he pondered this, he was unaware that Yun Chu'an was also watching him from the opposite side.

Looking around at the deserted, scattered toad corpses, he couldn't help but have a bold idea.

Or, why don't we just stay here?

How about we get rid of Diao Desan?

He had long harbored the intention to kill the snake, but the outside world was full of people and eyes, and taking action would inevitably cause a commotion. Moreover, it would be difficult to dispose of the body afterward, as it would surely attract a thorough investigation!

Here, the body could be buried on the spot, and almost no one would find it. Even if it were found in the future, the person would have already made their escape, and no one would be able to find any trace of them!

No, we can't rush it. We need to wait for the right opportunity to kill him.

He thought to himself, then put on a respectful and ingratiating smile: "Oh dear, I almost thought I was going to die just now. Luckily, I rolled over and landed here. If I had been any later, I'm afraid I would have been torn to shreds by the gravitational storm outside!"

De San smiled and said, "You're quite lucky, haha. I guessed that those guys were too weak. Only a few were extremely lucky enough to survive the spatial storm just now."

"Those lucky ones must have ended up in the space above, just not as big as ours—haha, everything here is ours from now on!"

He was smiling, clearly in a good mood. Yun Chu'an carefully observed, secretly pondering that if he wanted to make a move and kill this guy with a single, decisive blow, he would probably have to strike from behind him; that would give him the best chance of success.

An idea came to him, and he feigned a fearful expression: "That's true, but those toads don't know the specifics of this place either. What if there's another trap like that..."

De San's eyes flickered, and he agreed in his heart: "Indeed, we still need to be careful."

His eyes gleamed, and he came over and patted him on the shoulder: "Then you and I must work together. Here's what I'm saying, Mickey, listen to me, you're a field mouse, you're light and fast, so even if you trigger a trap, you can easily dodge it."

"Here's what we'll do: you go first, and I'll follow behind. If there's any problem, just run back, and I'll come to your aid immediately!"

Chapter 176 Crystal Palace

Yun Chu'an looked hesitant: "This... alright, okay."

He seemed to be intimidated by the man's power and finally had no choice but to lower his head and obey. De San was satisfied, feeling that everything was under control: "Forward, let's go!"

Yun Chu'an bent over and walked towards the pavilion in the distance. The owner of this storage bag really had a lot of leisure and refined taste. Even though it was just a warehouse, he still arranged it in such a beautiful and pleasant environment.

A teapot sat on the round table in the middle of the pavilion, its spout still steaming. De San, worried there might be a trap, told him to go first. So Yun Chu'an walked to the teapot, smelled the steam, and immediately felt refreshed.

The tea in this teapot looks like something good?

He opened the teapot lid, took a sniff, and the fresh and elegant aroma of the tea seemed to elevate his soul. The fatigue he had accumulated along the way was swept away, and he felt refreshed and relaxed.

If my previous guess was correct, then the tea in this teapot must have been something its original owner used for enjoyment.

He took out his teacup, picked up the teapot, and poured himself a small cup. The pale yellow tea emitted a faint aroma. He brought the cup to his lips, and even though it was still a little hot, he took a small sip.

Instantly, a refreshing sensation flowed into his abdomen, and then spread throughout his entire body in the blink of an eye. He felt a refreshing energy surge into his mind, and in the blink of an eye, his hearing and vision became sharp. His perception of himself, his surroundings, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was so smooth and unobstructed, without any barriers or stagnation.

The wonderful taste made him exclaim involuntarily, feeling as if his soul was being elevated with this sip of tea, and he was overjoyed.

Behind him, Diao Desan frowned and observed, clearly treating him as cannon fodder to scout ahead for him.

Seeing that he was completely unharmed and even leisurely sipping his tea, he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Does this mean there are no more traps or mechanisms here, and there's no more danger?

He stepped forward and asked in a deep voice, "What kind of tea is this?"

Yun Chu'an respectfully handed over the teapot: "I don't know, but this seems to be a good thing, sir. I took a sip and felt refreshed!"

Diao Desan frowned, took out his own teacup, poured himself a cup and drank it down, his eyes immediately lighting up.

It's really good stuff. If I drink a few more sips, I'm afraid I might be able to establish my foundation right here!

He was so excited that he tried to pour himself another cup of tea, but after two cups, the pot was completely empty, with not a drop left!

The snake demon's expression immediately changed. He put down the teapot and searched around the round table, but couldn't find anywhere to put the tea.

Suddenly, he realized that what was in the teapot was the last thing left!

Those were the last two sips of tea, and this guy actually drank half of them!

If Yun Chuan hadn't already absorbed all that tea, and even if De San swallowed him whole now, it wouldn't have made a difference, he would have wanted to devour him on the spot!

He stared blankly at Yun Chu'an, who feigned fear: "Sir, why are you looking at me like that?"

The giant python snorted coldly: "No, it's nothing, let's keep going!"

Yun Chuan turned around and walked carefully ahead. Then, De San suddenly said, "Wait!"

He stopped in his tracks, and then saw the big man stride forward and walk in front: "Your cultivation is too low. If there is any danger, you won't be able to withstand it."

"Let me walk in front, and you follow behind!"

He said this without allowing him any objection, and strode ahead, determined that if he found anything good, he would keep it all for himself and never let him get a single thing.

Yun Chu'an looked grateful, but inwardly he couldn't help but want to laugh wildly.

Hooked!

He appeared to be behaving himself, hiding behind Diao Desan, but his eyes were filled with murderous intent as he searched for the most suitable opportunity and location to make his move.

The snake demon, who was walking in front, suddenly felt a chill run down his spine and turned around. Yun Chu'an quickly lowered his eyes, and when he turned around, he could only see the rat demon following behind him with its head bowed and eyes lowered, obedient and docile to the extreme.

Am I overthinking it?

That's true. Even if someone at the fifth level of Qi Refining really wanted to harm me, how much skill could they possibly have?

Ha, you're just scaring yourself...

He chuckled inwardly, then turned and continued walking ahead. Only after he turned back did Yun Chu'an lift his eyelids, gazing at his retreating figure, lost in thought.

This guy is quite perceptive; even if someone attacks from behind, they probably won't escape his notice.
