Feeling the terrifying chill, he abruptly turned the jade box around.
Inside the jade box, there was only a piece of thin skin, densely covered in tiny characters.
"I am Liang Tingbo, of the Liang Family in Yunzhou, from the Da Jing Dynasty. Pursued relentlessly by powerful enemies, I have fled to this place. Alas, my injuries are too severe, Evil Qi has invaded my body, and my life hangs by a thread. In desperation, I pen this ssage. I have forced out a small portion of the Cold Poison from within my body and sealed it with this ssage in the jade box. Whoever opens this will be afflicted by the poison.
"The Cold Poison in this jade box, which I expelled from my body, has less than a tenth of its original potency. Any Martial Artist who reaches this place would likely be in the Refining Internal Realm or the Blood Exchange Realm. They should be able to temporarily suppress it. Afterward, by consuming the Middle Grade Elixir I created, the Extre Fire Yang Gang Pill, they can achieve Yin Yang Intersection and truly enhance their strength!
"I have placed the Elixir Recipe for this Elixir within a Storage Bag. This bag can only be unlocked by the direct descendants of my, Liang Tingbo’s, bloodline. Fortunate one, you need only take the Storage Bag and the Pill Furnace to my Liang Family in Yunzhou and deliver them to my son or grandson. I have also detailed the reasons within the bag; upon seeing it, they will surely gift you the Elixir Recipe."
Seeing the words ’Cold Poison,’ even with Jiang Shu’s composure, he couldn’t help but clench his fist!
He hadn’t anticipated, being as cautious as he always was in both Xuanxing and the Da Jing Dynasty, that he would suffer such a major setback here!
No wonder. No wonder President Su in the Danxia Chamber of Comrce’s treasure vault had strongly hinted at the importance of Da Jing secrets.
This ti, he suffered due to his limited experience!
If only he had recognized the Cold Poison from the start, he wouldn’t have opened the jade box!
"But, fortunate one, rember this: whatever happens is ultimately for my benefit."

He read over the words written on the thin skin twice more. True energy erupted from Jiang Shu’s hand.
This piece of thin skin was instantly shattered into powder!
He turned to look at the corpse beside him. Liang Tingbo’s eyes were closed, his lips pursed.
It was as if he were silently mocking him!
Only a top-grade Alchemist could have created such a Middle Grade Elixir Recipe! His body remained uncorrupted after death; he must have been at least at the Blood Exchange Realm, and possibly even at the Acupoint Passage Realm!
Indeed, those who managed to cultivate to such a Realm were, without exception, the most cunning of individuals.
What they left behind would hardly be a genuine opportunity!
All he could get now was a verbal promise: the Elixir Recipe to cure the Cold Poison and slightly enhance his strength.
And what was he supposed to do? Carry a top-grade Pill Furnace, along with this even more mystical Storage Bag, all the way from the county seat of Yongning County to Yunzhou? Undertake such an arduous journey and entrust his life to the Liang Family, whose mbers he knew nothing about?
Pah!
He fiercely drew the alloy war blade from his back. With a powerful slash, Jiang Shu dismbered Liang Tingbo’s corpse!
He placed the Storage Bag and jade box into the black Pill Furnace, held it in one hand, and with a fierce stomp of his foot, shot upwards!
BANG!
Like a cannonball, Jiang Shu’s figure shot out of the cold pond, sending water splashing everywhere.
He felt the strand of Cold Poison lodged near his kidneys and took a deep breath.
This poison.
If Liang Tingbo, a top-grade Alchemist, could create a cure, then other top-grade Alchemists could surely do the sa!
As a top genius of the Danxia Chamber of Comrce, would he have trouble finding another top-grade Alchemist?
Yunzhou.
He would certainly go.
Not to deliver the Storage Bag to Liang Tingbo’s direct descendants, but to use their bloodline to unlock this Storage Bag!
Among all the words Liang Tingbo had written on that thin skin, only one sentence was truly profound: Everything that happens is ultimately for my benefit!
Indeed, he had suffered a setback today. But if this Storage Bag was truly what he imagined it to be, then today marked the beginning of his true great opportunity!
