The writings on the parchment were ancient and rustic, exuding an indescribable charm as if embodying a profound principle of the great Dao.

This was left by the owner of the cave, Di Lintian!

When Ye Chen saw this piece of parchment, he immediately regretted pounding his chest and stomping his feet, almost knocking himself dead against the giant rock beneath him.

"Qiankun Bag!"

Eventually, Ye Chen found the precious Qiankun Bag he had discarded among several pieces of broken rocks.

"This pouch is actually a storage treasure!"

Fang Ruolan also showed a face of astonishment, staring at the pouch in Ye Chen's hand in disbelief.

"Do you know this is a storage treasure?" Ye Chen asked.

Fang Ruolan's expression seemed to suggest she knew something about the Qiankun Bag.

"Storage treasures come in many forms; it could be a belt, a ring, or even a small pouch like this..."

"Such storage treasures are extremely rare. Only beings above a Land God can harness the cosmic forces to craft such treasures!" Fang Ruolan said.

"This treasure contains a boundless space, capable of holding all things under heaven, with the only flaw being its inability to contain living beings!"

"Even so, storage artifacts are exceedingly rare!"

"I've only heard about it from my teacher, because even my teacher does not possess such a treasure!"

"After all, even beings beyond deities find it difficult to craft such ultimate storage treasures!"

"Ye Chen, you have struck it rich!" Fang Ruolan said with an almost wild delight, her eyes brimming with excitement as she gazed at Ye Chen.

Fang Ruolan, the sacred maiden of Miaojiang, whose teacher was a Gu Tao Immortal, had been cultured by her teacher and naturally knew how precious this storage treasure was.

"This Qiankun Bag was taken by you when you controlled the Indestructible Vajra Gu. Would you like me to return this Qiankun Bag to you?" Ye Chen suppressed the turbulence in his heart and looked towards the excited Fang Ruolan.

"You!" Fang Ruolan was a bit shocked and her face filled with disbelief.

She had made it quite clear that the Qiankun Bag was a treasure of miraculous wonders, yet Ye Chen was willing to give this ultimate treasure to her?

"Sister, please take it. Just ask your teacher not to kill me!" Ye Chen's face fell.

"If you don't want this Qiankun Bag, I'll give it to your teacher instead. Just say it's my tribute to her old lady, and ask her not to come kill me anymore!" Ye Chen shamelessly said.

Fang Ruolan had spent the entire day watching him face death. Even though Ye Chen hadn't died yet, there was still a chill in her heart.

Ye Chen had numerous interactions with Fang Ruolan and knew that the ruler of Miaojiang truly wanted to kill him and could descend upon him at any moment!

Even though Ye Chen wore a dragon head ring and the realm was blessed by a dragon head presence, he was still frightened, for it was a Land God seeking to slay him, not some insignificant creature!

Ye Chen knew he was too handsome and had bullied too many beauties, which earned him the jealousy of the celestial grandfather, hence he sent a deity to cut him down.

"I do not want this Qiankun Bag, and I won't give it to my teacher either. This treasure chose you; you are the fated one!" Fang Ruolan said.

"If your teacher comes to kill me and I die, what use will having this treasure be?" Ye Chen asked.

"I will protect you!" Fang Ruolan earnestly said.

"..."

Ye Chen looked perplexed; he had intended to play pitiful to gain some sympathy, but Fang Ruolan's reaction caught him off guard.

The leader of Miaojiang wanted to kill Ye Chen, and it all started because of Fang Ruolan, as Ye Chen had beaten this saintess severely.

However, Ye Chen drank her blood, refined her Gu King, and instead of seeking revenge, the saintess seemed to want to get close to him!

Nevertheless, Ye Chen felt a mysterious connection in his heart, as if he and Fang Ruolan shared a mutual understanding.

Could it be...

Ye Chen suddenly thought of a possibility, feeling some palpitations.

The night sky was sprinkled with stars, and occasionally a breeze would sweep by. In front of a bonfire, Ye Chen and Ruolan sat opposite each other.

Ye Chen had acquired the Qiankun Bag, and after some exploration, he finally mastered how to use this treasure!

Now, Ye Chen was having a simple conversation with the aloof saintess under the moonlight.

"This cave has sealed itself completely from the world, and to leave, we can only wait until a month later!" Fang Ruolan said.

"Right, we still have plenty of time to gather herbs, and with the infinite space inside this Qiankun Bag, we can fit all the herbs on these mountains!" Ye Chen said.

The Qiankun Bag was a storage treasure, its internal space spanning thousands of meters. If Ye Chen's power was sufficient, he could even stuff mountains inside!

The ancient herbs on these mountains were numerous, easily in the tens of thousands. Even harvesting all of them wouldn't occupy much of the space within the Qiankun Bag.

"The herbs on these mountains are abundant, and our stamina is fierce!"

"And with this Qiankun Bag that can contain everything, it saves us a lot of trouble. The mountain herbs might be harvested within a few days!" Fang Ruolan said. "Once we've gathered all the herbs here, where shall we go next?"

Fang Ruolan wanted to explore the Second or even the Third Heaven, as they might encounter some serendipity that would bring them great fortunes.

"Five hundred grandmasters, seven or eight out of ten are in the Second and Third Heaven, after all, that's where the most treasures are!"

"The First Heaven has the fewest grandmasters, but even in this First Heaven, such a fierce battle as we just witnessed occurred!"

"The meeting of heroes in the Second and Third Heaven, what would the battles there look like, one must wonder?"

Ye Chen spoke heavily, as five hundred grandmasters were fighting fiercely for the treasures, and some of them were even risking their lives.

The dangers in the First Heaven were the least severe, deep in the cave even if the fortunes were substantial, the place was too dangerous.

"So what do you mean?"

"Are you afraid to risk your life for the chance, simply wanting to hide here until the seal is lifted, and then slip out in defeat?"

Fang Ruolan looked at Ye Chen with some anger, disappointed in him for being so fearful of death.

"Who doesn't want to fight against the heroes and compete for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, achieving harmony with the heavens?"

"However, those who strive for such things might get killed by the surrounding heroes even before they begin!" Ye Chen sighed. "Those who become grandmasters are all resolute and assertive individuals, aren't they?"

"Everyone is tempted by treasures, and heroes fight over them. If we join in, we might just get killed by the group!"

This cave housed countless opportunities, but also limitless deadly threats. To obtain these opportunities, one must withstand these deadly challenges!

"Are you suggesting we just linger in the First Heaven, not venturing deep into the cave?" Fang Ruolan asked. "Even if you are an Alchemist who can turn these herbs from mundane to miraculous, there are too many treasures in this cave. Don't you want to compete for them?"

"Didn't I just get this Qiankun Bag?" Ye Chen swung the cloth bag over his body. "This device is a treasure for storing items that even the Land God cannot possess, yet now it's in my hands."

"This is only the first day we've come to this cave. Even if you've found the Qiankun Bag, are you really satisfied with that?" Fang Ruolan tried to arouse Ye Chen's ambition to compete for treasures.
