I have 99 innate treasures

Chapter 269 The Seventh Treasure Holder
Under the cold sky, the desolate cold wind was like the faint cry of a ghost, echoing in the night, sometimes high and sometimes low.

Ji Yun, who looked a little thin, was wearing the sect's standard black clothes, which had been soaked in water and frozen into pieces. He lay quietly on the shore with blue lips, his chest heaving with irregular breathing.

"Because of a piece of spiritual stone the size of a fingernail, they actually wanted to kill me!"

In the cold wind, his slightly tender face had already turned red from the cold, and there was a lingering fear in his eyes.

Even though he had swam back to the shore from the bottomless, icy black pool and lay in the cold wind for a long time, Ji Yun still hadn't recovered.

The suffocation caused by the cold water from the pond being forced into his mouth and nose, and the pitch-black darkness all around, were like a nightmare that was still replaying in his mind.

The scene of feeling fear and helplessness, and his body sinking into the endless abyss, would make his heart palpitate whenever he recalled it.

The reason for all this was the thumbnail-sized spiritual stone fragment that he accidentally discovered yesterday when he was cultivating the spiritual field.

For a sect servant like him, this piece of spirit stone fragment is enough to help him sense the spiritual energy floating between heaven and earth, so that he can enter the Qi Refining Stage and get rid of his status as a servant.

At that time, because there was an outer sect steward watching nearby, the three servants beside him did not see anything unusual.

Ji Yun didn't know that they had seen him picking up the spirit stone fragments.

It was not until this morning, after they had finished their chores and had breakfast, and were on their way back to the house across a stone bridge, that the three of them suddenly attacked Ji Yun and demanded the spirit stone fragment.

In their opinion, since this piece of spirit stone fragment was found in the spirit field that they were responsible for cultivating, they should have a share of it.

Ji Yun naturally would not agree. In his opinion, whatever he picked up belonged to him.

What's more, this piece of spirit stone fragment represents great significance!
It can allow him to transcend classes and escape from his status as a menial servant and enter the Qi Refining Stage, allowing him and his sister to live a good life where they will never be bullied again.

In this case, the four words "whoever sees it shall have a share" are simply being naughty.

Then, he was pushed off the stone bridge by the other three people and fell into the bottomless dark pool.

The moment the freezing cold water submerged him, Ji Yun was terrified, but immediately gave in.

After all, in the face of a life-and-death crisis, surviving is the most important thing.

Not only was he willing to give the spirit stone fragments to the three people, he was even willing to agree to a series of unequal treaties.

But what he didn't expect was that the three people on the stone bridge no longer wanted the spirit stones at this time. They just wanted to watch Ji Yun sink to the bottom of the water.

No matter which direction Ji Yun swam towards the shore, he would be surrounded by the three men.

In the end, he could only watch the dark and cold water quickly flood over his cheeks.

The three men left cursing only after they watched Ji Yun sink into the pool.

Thinking back to what happened after he sank into the pool, Ji Yun couldn't help but secretly feel lucky.

Fortunately, the spirit stone fragment was not handed over to the three people under that circumstance, otherwise, how could he have broken through the realm in despair.

It was precisely because he had entered the Qi Refining Stage that he was able to rely on the newfound strength in his body to swim back to the shore from the pool.

"Zhang Zhong, Liu Yuan, and Zhao Mu!"

Ji Yun gritted his teeth and recited the names of the three men, wishing he could kill them immediately.

After a while, he felt that his strength seemed to have recovered, and he stretched his stiff body and slowly climbed up from the ground.

Then, he felt the warm current flowing through his body, and recalled what the steward outside had said. "The steward outside seemed to have said before that as long as I enter the Qi Refining Stage, I can apply for the identity card of an outer disciple from him?"

"I think I meet the standards now, right?"

He thought uncertainly and looked around at the gloomy environment.

"The outer sect deacon may be practicing at this time, so it is better not to disturb him rashly."

Thinking of this, Ji Yun walked towards where he lived with weak legs.

The place where he lived was not far from the stone bridge behind him. In just a dozen minutes, he returned to the door of a simple wooden house.

After pushing open the wooden door and seeing the messy environment in the room in the dim light, which looked like a monster entering a village, Ji Yun's mood, which had been adjusted with great difficulty, immediately turned bad.

The wooden bed he slept on was moved aside, and his few sets of clothes were thrown on the ground at random, and the cloth used to wrap the clothes was also thrown aside.

The teapot and teacups on the table were all broken into pieces.

Judging from the current situation, it is naturally impossible to leave the dozen or so taels of silver hidden in the package to him.

Ji Yun gritted his teeth and looked at everything in front of him, anger boiling in his heart.

There is no need to think about it, this must have been done by Zhang Zhong, Liu Yuan, and Zhao Mu.

They must have thought he wouldn't make it, so they broke into his place, searching for items they might need later.

Ji Yun wanted to cause trouble for them right now, but when he thought about the fact that there were three of them and his body was so weak that he couldn't even walk, he could only suppress the anger in his heart.

"After I get the outer sect disciple's identity card from the outer sect steward and officially become an outer sect disciple, it won't be too late to go find them!"

"To be on the safe side, it would be best if you could learn another technique for attacking!"

He made a silent decision in his mind, then picked up the dusty clothes on the ground, brushed off the dust, and changed out of his sect uniform which had frozen into hard pieces in the cold wind.

Finally, he took a deep breath and lay down on the wooden bed.

Feeling the hardness of the bed board beneath him, he finally felt at ease.

But at this moment, a black light suddenly flew in from the window and hit him directly who had just closed his eyes.

After a tiring night, Ji Yun was just about to fall asleep when he suddenly felt panic in his heart. When he subconsciously opened his eyes, he happened to see a black light approaching.

Before he could react, black light rushed into his mind.

The next moment, a lot of information suddenly burst out in my mind.

[The Heaven-Devouring Demon Pot is an object from a mysterious world. It was forged by the strongest person in that world (Emperor Henren) using his body and skull from his previous life. It contains the essence of that person and his lineage.

I don't know when this treasure wandered outside the world and swallowed up a ray of purple energy. Since then, it has returned to the innate world and has unpredictable power. When it is activated, it is like a black hole, which can swallow everything in the world. It is extremely difficult for Daluo Immortal to escape.

When it swallows all things, it will feed the essence of the things it swallows back to the treasure holder.

Legend has it that when its power is fully unleashed, it can reverse the yin and yang principles of life and death, and the jar can also transform into the most powerful man in the mysterious world (the ruthless emperor) to protect the treasure holder and help him attack everything! 】
