He felt a surge of anxiety, pondering whether he should take another elixir to break through to the Seventh Layer of Qi Cultivation. As this thought crossed his mind, the stone door in front of him boomed loudly, and Li Xuanxuan hurried out.

Li Xuanxuan had changed into a clean Taoist robe, the burns on his body had healed considerably, yet his eyes still had a hint of grey-white, his face still withered, lacking the solemn dignity of before.

"What about that monkey?!"

The first thing Li Xuanxuan asked upon awakening was about the obedient spiritual beast they had brought back, which made Li Yuanjiao almost want to laugh and cry. He turned to the clan soldiers beside him and said,

"Bring that spiritual beast up here."

So, eager to see Li Xuanxuan, Li Xuanxuan, having been the head of the family for many years, immediately understood and joyfully took off his storage bag around his waist, smiling as he said,

"Let's see what we've got!"

The Li Family had been running a deficit for many years, and Li Yuanjiao and Li Yuanping were eagerly eyeing what Li Xuanxuan had harvested from the market disaster; they nodded repeatedly.

"Whoosh..."

Li Xuanxuan swept his hand over the storage bag, and a shower of items shining with treasure light tumbled out, mostly obtained from the storage bag of the cultivator wielding the double-edged blade, while the rest were a few Taoist robes and several elixirs.

All the magic artifacts were of the Qi Cultivation level. Deserting the four inferior ones, the first of the medium-grade artifacts was a Magic Artifact for cultivators at the Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation, called the "Six Stone Cloud Disk," an oval, earthy-yellow Great Shield of reputable make and quite durable.

As for how the two knew the name and acknowledged its reputable make, it was naturally because along the edge of the "Six Stone Cloud Disk," there was a line of small characters:

"Six Stone Cloud Disk, medium-grade, Yuanwu Peak, cast by Yu Muxian."

"This!"

The two of them were momentarily speechless, having never known that the Sect internally referred to a Middle Stage of Qi Cultivation as medium-grade. Li Yuanjiao handled the Six Stone Cloud Disk, finding it light and easy to wield, and said,

"Still the handiwork of an old acquaintance; this Yu Muxian does have some skill."

"After all, it's the long-lost 'Golden Melting Cave.'

Li Xuanxuan, having heard much gossip in the market, had some knowledge of it and immediately put away the Six Stone Cloud Disk before taking out a pair of double-edged blades.

The double-edged blades were also of medium-grade, thin and flat. Without the mana support from the devil cultivators, they featured a faint blue-green color. After looking them over for a while and finding no signature, they figured they were not made by the Three Sects and Seven Doors.

Li Yuanjiao swung the blade and a pale blue Sword Qi sprung out from the blades, thinner yet much sharper than ordinary Sword Qi. Without specialized techniques, it would probably be too much for an average person to handle.

"We'll call it the 'Deep Blue Blade.'

The Li Family's current Qi Cultivation magic artifacts were few and far between, with not even a single medium-grade weapon to their name. Now that they had the Deep Blue Blades, a pair of magic artifacts, their value naturally skyrocketed, so they made sure to take note of them. Li Yuanjiao put them away, considering that they might come in handy in the future.

After all, the shapes of the various magic artifacts determined the length and reach of Qi and the protective aura, each with their own unique properties. Having a variety of different weapon inheritances in reserve greatly benefited the family.

"There's also a magic artifact hammer in Qinghong's possession, unknown of what grade."

After sorting out these magic artifacts, Li Xuanxuan first set aside the elixirs and picked up a Jade Slip from the table, expressing amazement:

"This devil cultivator is really strange, carrying their inheritance so carelessly on their person - perhaps they had no fixed abode or other place to keep it..."

Li Yuanjiao sneered and offered a different perspective, replying:

"If not for such practices, how could devil cultivators grow so quickly in the South River area? I'm afraid each one of them copied countless editions and spread them widely, so having several copies in a storage bag wouldn't surprise me at all!"

Li Xuanxuan felt the reasoning was sound, for he had also seen the peculiar resilience and numerous contingencies of devil cultivators. Not fearing the destruction of their bodies or the injury to their cultivation path, it was quite natural for loose cultivators to be tempted into switching to the Demonic Path.

He picked up the Jade Slip, extended his Spiritual Sense into it, and several large characters emerged in his mind:

"Blood Fiend Scripture, annotated by the nameless, Volume One"

Li Xuanxuan dared not delve into the content, merely taking note of the title, when a sudden doubt welled up in his heart, and he murmured,

"Blood Fiend Scripture... Why does this name feel so familiar?"
