The Journey of Immortal Cultivation Chapter 273 - 168 Black Scale Armor

Even Qiongqi hesitated and said, "Otherwise, Mistress, shall we not enter?" If sothing untoward happens to the Mistress inside, when Lord Changtian wakes up, my own fate would be too terrifying, pitiful, and tragic to describe.

"You naturally don’t need to go. The one who will go is !" She did not lift her head, busy packing the dicines.

The Pill Furnace wailed: "Mistress..."

She bluntly said, "Just obediently help refine elixirs, no need to say anything else." Although "Heavenly Ladder" is a place immortals and demons cannot enter, do you think mortal thods are easy to deal with? Those who have had such an idea all have their bones buried in the secret realm already.

The items she needed to prepare couldn’t be too few, but they also absolutely couldn’t be too heavy. Zhang Sheng’s ancestor’s treasure map ca with a simple introduction, roughly similar to what Zhang Sheng had described, stating that the environnt of the "Heavenly Ladder" wasn’t great, with swamps, forests, and various wandering monsters. Based solely on this information, she had to prepare dicines for healing wounds, replenishing blood, detoxifying, preventing miasma, and warding off insects and ants, even extracting so essence blood from a Bat Demon that could quickly heal the body.

The only piece of good news was that elixirs could still be used within the "Heavenly Ladder." For this reason, she had already asked the Cloud Tiger Trading Team to sell so of her healing and detoxifying dicines. Since the secret realm was about to open, these items were selling extrely well—those who were going in to risk their lives didn’t care about the small cost, so about three-quarters of the products she made along the way for refining practice were sold.

The second batch of things she needed to prepare included poisons and various weapons. Tusks were the most handy weapon she had to bring along. Besides that, He Yimian gifted her a set of Willow Leaf Flying Knives. The blades of this set of knives were thin as paper, each handle cast hollow, and weighed no more than one and a half cents.

The items supporting her were even more thrilling; first were two sets of sleeve arrows in arrow quivers. As the na suggests, these items were bound on the forearms, requiring just a light touch to release powerful crossbow bolts to injure people. Another secret weapon was similar to the rain pear blossom needle from the martial arts novels she read; once activated and thrown, it would explode upon contact with any object, shooting countless steel needles in all directions. The only drawback was that this weapon does not distinguish between friend or foe; if the owner is too close, they too would be riddled like a hornet’s nest...

Besides that, there were many trivial little items, all courtesy of her rchant team friends’ supportive friendship. Don’t think these objects look unremarkable; how could the rchants who have traveled all over for more than ten years carry useless things with them?

She also prepared a considerable amount of poison—Bat Demon’s sleep poison, Bat King’s corrosive poison, River Pufferfish Poison, and various rare and strange toxins she collected along the way. Don’t bla her cruelty; after entering the secret realm, life and death are unpredictable. If you want to speak of kindness and humanitarianism, you might as well go ho and speak to your own children.

Qiongqi also refined several Fasting Pills for her. These Elixir Pills were made from Yellow Jing, Dream Millet, Poria, yam, and others; Ning Xiaoxian understood them as compressed biscuits or marching rations, but these pills were more miraculous, as consuming a single pill could sate hunger for several days. Ti was precious inside the secret realm; she had no ti to hunt for food, and moreover, she didn’t know whether the creatures in the "Heavenly Ladder" were edible, as the treasure map did not ntion this point.

"Books are regretfully few when needed." Only now did she regret not studying the Array Formation thoroughly with Lord Changtian or Wen Liangyu, as setting up arrays in the secret realm could trap one or two or a pair as desired, which would be very useful. While she sighed, she also placed a small bottle of Black Dog Blood into her pouch; with fewer than a thousand residents in the town, finding a black dog was not easy. However, the barrier that prevented Zhang Sheng’s ancestor from obtaining the treasure might very well be an Immortal tactic, and she wanted to see if Black Dog Blood could break it.

She was ready to set out. Just as she was straightening up, she saw Qiongqi shyly co behind her and point at the corner of the living room of her little cabin, saying, "Mistress, here is another treasure that can be taken."

Hmm? When did a Black Stone Box appear here?

Full of curiosity, she lifted the lid; inside was only one item—a neatly folded set of Soft Armor. "This is?"

"Before Lord Changtian went into seclusion, he specifically tasked with this," Qiongqi said, his voice turning into a magnetic male voice, exactly that of Changtian, "Qiongqi, if that girl gets into trouble while I’m in seclusion, give her this Soft Armor to wear."
