Chapter 1170: The Mysterious Black Bottle
October 18, 2017
Imperial Capital Administrative Office, Luoyang City, Training Ground.
Lu HaiKong took a glance at the attributes of the Dragon Orb and then put it away.
Unless he intended to hand it over to Hua Tuo for research on its medicinal properties, he could only keep it stored away again, waiting until he advanced to the level of Yu Ji before using it.
Lu HaiKong was more inclined towards the former idea, as he wasn't sure how long it would take to reach Yu Ji's level, despite his current strength.
In his opinion, it was better to have something tangible in hand than to wait for an uncertain future.
As for keeping the Dragon Orb for when he needed to break through, Lu HaiKong was no longer interested in the concept of 'bottom power'. This guy had more than enough tricks up his sleeve.
After making up his mind, Lu HaiKong didn't immediately send the Dragon Orb to Hua Tuo. Instead, he put it away and took out the Cosmic Bag he had obtained along with the orb.
When Lu HaiKong saw the Cosmic Bag, his eyes involuntarily shone with a golden light. Even though he had already appraised the bag's attributes, he felt that there was more to it than met the eye.
This Cosmic Bag (Fake) had been found inside the skull of a Divine Dragon, and judging by the time since its death, it had likely been there for a long period. The owner of this Cosmic Bag (Fake) might even be the one responsible for slaying the dragon. It was only the second spatial item Lu HaiKong had ever seen, so it was natural for him to be curious about it.
However, Lu HaiKong had already appraised the bag, and using Heaven's Eye Technique on it would be pointless. Unless he was willing to use Heaven's Eye Void Breaker, he could only attempt to make the Cosmic Bag (Fake) recognize him as its master.
Fortunately, the requirements for recognition were simple: 80 points in Politics and the activation of Psychic Energy.
After his experience in the Abandoned Dragon Locking Palace, these conditions were no longer an issue for Lu HaiKong. His Politics had just reached 80, and his Psychic Energy was even more formidable than Xing Ping's, who had 90 points in the attribute.
With such a solid foundation, it was easy for Lu HaiKong to make the Cosmic Bag (Fake) recognize him as its master. He slightly clumsily activated his Psychic Energy, which had just surpassed the 80-point threshold, and directed it into the bag.
As his Psychic Energy flowed, Lu HaiKong effortlessly completed the recognition process and simultaneously discovered the space within the Cosmic Bag (Fake).
In the small one-cubic-meter space, Lu HaiKong expected to see many things, but there was only a black bottle.
"Just a black bottle? What's inside it?"
Lu HaiKong's heart stirred, and his Psychic Energy moved towards the bottle, intending to retrieve it.
However, as his Psychic Energy approached the bottle, it suddenly became scorching hot, as if it had been boiled. Lu HaiKong's forehead throbbed with pain.
Realizing that his Psychic Energy had undergone a transformation, Lu HaiKong's expression changed drastically. "Azure Dragon Soul Fragment rebellion? But that guy is dead, isn't he?"
Lu HaiKong could feel the unrefined Azure Dragon Soul Fragment within his Psychic Energy, heating up and resisting his attempt to retrieve the black bottle.
Reluctantly, Lu HaiKong withdrew his Psychic Energy, and the Azure Dragon Soul Fragment immediately calmed down. Seeing this, Lu HaiKong instantly understood what was happening.
"Could this be what killed the dragon?"
As he spoke, Lu HaiKong extended his Psychic Energy again, and the Azure Dragon Soul Fragment reacted accordingly. When he retracted his Psychic Energy, the fragment once again became docile. This experiment confirmed that the black bottle was likely the cause of the dragon's demise, as the soul fragment reacted so strongly to it.
However, Lu HaiKong wasn't overly excited by this discovery. Whether or not the bottle was the key to the dragon's death still needed to be verified. Even if it was, it held no use for Lu HaiKong.
After all, if he dared to confront the Sinister Dragon with the bottle, he would likely be killed before he could do anything.
Lu HaiKong did find something interesting, though. When the Azure Dragon Soul Fragment burned in resistance to the black bottle, it was refined and merged into his soul.
In those two instances, Lu HaiKong's Psychic Energy had increased by almost one-twentieth, which was quite impressive.
In the 1619 book, there was no error!
"I never thought this thing could be used this way. Now I don't have to worry about refining these soul fragments. I was originally concerned about how to refine them."
Lu HaiKong made a rough estimate. Without considering the limits of his Psychic Energy, it would only take him one or two months to refine all the Azure Dragon Soul Fragments and convert them into his Psychic Energy. This was an unexpected surprise for him.
"NiuNiu devoured half of the soul fragments and became a dragon. I wonder what level I could reach if I refine all of them."
A hint of anticipation flashed across Lu HaiKong's face, and he put away the Cosmic Bag (Fake). After all, he had plenty of time, and there was no rush to refine the soul fragments. For now, it was better to first take stock of Yu Ji's possessions.
Indeed, the real treasure from this trip was Yu Ji's inheritance.
Lu HaiKong took out another bag from his pocket and emptied his ring, revealing a Taoist robe, a Daoist crown, and various other items. As he laid them out, his eyes shone with a brighter golden light...
