JSCMU-Chapter 131: Genius Sword Cultivator, Cang Li

Yun Jin herself was stunned.

It opened just like that?

She tried again this morning, and it still wouldn’t open back then.

Now her spiritual power shouldn’t have changed much, and yet it opened so easily?

In any case, opening it was a good thing.

Yun Jin extended her spiritual sense inside.

She hadn’t even looked at the contents yet, but she was already very satisfied.

This ring was, in itself, a storage ring with a very large capacity. A typical storage pouch might have ten square meters at most, but this ring’s space was a thousand square meters in area with a height of ten meters. If used for storage, it could definitely hold quite a lot.

Just as Yun Jin was about to look inside the ring.

A translucent figure dressed in white appeared.

Yun Jin looked over with curiosity.

It was a man who appeared very young in appearance, though his face was somewhat pale, as if he had just recovered from a serious injury.

The figure said, “I am Cang Li. That day, I was fortunate enough to be rescued by a Yun clan ancestor and was able to survive. I left behind this ring as a gift to the Yun clan descendants. The ring is sealed with a barrier, and once the cumulative spiritual power input reaches the level of Gold Core Stage, it can be opened.”

With this explanation from Cang Li, Yun Jin immediately understood. So the ring needed to accumulate spiritual power. She had always tried briefly, and if it wouldn’t open, she’d set it aside. That’s why now, the accumulated spiritual power finally reached the threshold. Ye Danxia must’ve been trying constantly, which is why she opened it earlier.

With one doubt resolved, Yun Jin raised her eyebrows slightly again.

Cang Li?

That name sounded vaguely familiar to her.

He was a top-tier genius of the Kunlun Sword Sect and the undisputed next sect master.

He once encountered the male and female protagonists. For some reason, upon seeing the female lead for the first time, he treated her especially well and earnestly invited them to join Kunlun Sword Sect. However, since the two had already joined Qingxiao Pavilion, they declined.

At the time, when Yun Jin saw this, she suspected that Cang Li was likely just another tool who fell in love with the female lead at first sight.

The demon lord male lead was also very wary of Cang Li, showing clear signs of guarding against a love rival.

And Ye Danxia, being fought over by two outstanding men, naturally enjoyed the attention.

But after seeing this image within the ring…

Yun Jin suddenly realized.

Cang Li likely didn’t fall for the female lead at all. He saw this ring and assumed Ye Danxia was a descendant of his benefactor.

No wonder he kept asking Ye Danxia about her background in the mundane world. What did Ye Danxia say at the time?

She said she was the adopted daughter of the Yun family and was as close as sisters with the Yun family’s young lady. Later, when the Yun family fell into misfortune, she and the Yun daughter supported each other and joined Tianxing Sect together. Unfortunately, the Yun daughter was later killed by the demon clan, and her motivation for cultivating was to avenge her friend.

And this ring was, of course, personally gifted to her by the Yun family’s young lady.

Back then, Yun Jin witnessed all this in her soul state and felt that hypocrisy was second nature to Ye Danxia.

But thinking back about it.

Ye Danxia must’ve also seen Cang Li’s image. So, the moment she saw Cang Li, she already recognized him.

Yet she pretended not to know him, only showing the appearance of someone determined to avenge her friend.

Since Ye Danxia said the ring was gifted to her, Cang Li assumed the first person to open the ring was the Yun family’s young lady, and thus Ye Danxia didn’t know him. So he didn’t suspect her explanation.

To be cautious, Cang Li must’ve also investigated privately.

But upon investigating, he could only find that the Yun family did indeed suffer misfortune, and Ye Danxia’s identity as an adopted daughter of the Yun family was indisputable.

Later, with people like Zhao Wuji around, all her experiences at Tianxing Sect could be spun however they liked, covered up however they wanted. And in the end, she did indeed die at the hands of the demon clan.

After Cang Li discovered all this, his desire to exterminate demons only grew stronger. He was later schemed against and fell into a trap, eventually dragging the entire Kunlun Sword Sect into the mire.

With a flash of insight, Yun Jin pieced it all together.

This ring actually didn’t play a huge role in Ye Danxia’s glorious life. It mostly appeared frequently in the early Stages. Later on, she naturally obtained better magical tools.

Who would have thought.

Such a ring could still be used by Ye Danxia to manipulate someone like Cang Li.

Yun Jin’s gaze grew cold. In this life, without this ring, she wanted to see just how Ye Danxia and her demon lord boyfriend would deceive Kunlun Sword Sect.

Cang Li’s image was still speaking. “The Yun clan currently has no descendants with spiritual roots. Since you were able to open the ring, you must be a true descendant of the Yun family. Inside this ring, I’ve prepared some spirit stones and some cultivation pills and talismans. You may look through them yourself. But those worldly items can never repay a life-saving favor. This ring is regarded as a token. Any Yun descendant carrying this ring may come find me on Mount Kunlun. Inside the ring is a single purple talisman. Light it on Mount Kunlun, and I shall come see you myself.”

When Cang Li finished speaking, the image slowly disappeared.

Yun Jin narrowed her eyes, pondering for a moment.

She was skilled with the sword and also loved it.

Kunlun Sword Sect had always been the destination she set for herself.

She didn’t expect that there would be this kind of connection between the Yun family and Kunlun Sword Sect.

Yun Jin had no doubt that if she were to go looking for Cang Li right now, using the ring as a token, he would surely welcome her into Kunlun Sword Sect.

But.

Yun Jin smiled.

She would go to Kunlun Sword Sect.

Not only because it was a holy land for sword cultivation, but also because the entire sect fought the demon clan down to their very last drop of blood.

Such a blood-bound sect was exactly her style.

Only.

She didn’t want to go through the back door.

If she were to go, she would go upright and dignified.

She was determined to walk this sword path righteously and invincibly.

She would leap upon Kunlun Mountain with her sword in hand!

Thinking of the stunned expression that the cold and introverted genius sword cultivator might have when she joined Kunlun Mountain, Yun Jin found it quite amusing.

Next, Yun Jin checked the items within the ring.

Just as Cang Li said, they were all items commonly used by cultivators. However, the things he prepared were only suitable up to Golden Core Stage. Anything more advanced was not included.

Yun Jin could understand this. Cang Li likely assumed that once the image was seen, she would come to Mount Kunlun to find him. Preparing supplies up to Golden Core Stage should be enough.

As for spirit stones.

There were 100 supreme-grade spirit stones, 1,000 high-grade spirit stones, and many miscellaneous lower-grade spirit stones.

These spirit stones were enough for a Golden Core Stage cultivator to live quite comfortably.

In her previous life, Ye Danxia used these spirit stones to win over many hearts.

As for pills.

There were some pills from grade first to third grade, mostly focused on increasing cultivation. Cang Li prepared ten bottles for each realm, enough for her to quickly level up.

The reason Ye Danxia’s cultivation advanced so quickly in her past life was partly due to her own talent, but these pills must’ve also played a major role!

However, to Yun Jin, these pills were mainly useful for acquiring more pill recipes. Otherwise, they had little value.

But she acknowledged and appreciated Cang Li’s kindness.

The rest of the talismans and such didn’t need to be explained in detail.

The only thing that made Yun Jin stare intently was a sword!

When she extended her spiritual sense toward it, Cang Li’s image unexpectedly appeared once more.
