Two Worlds: Demonic Cultivator with His Zombie Materials-Chapter 92 - 89: Ancient Technique, Blood Lotus Embryo

This is a gray, package-like object. Upon examining it closely, it turns out to be a single piece without any seams, clearly man-made, yet it seems perfectly natural.

Using Divine Thought to inspect it, this object must have been refined using special methods and materials, as Divine Thought cannot penetrate it, making it impossible to sense what’s inside.

Although Zheng Yi doesn’t have much experience in appraising goods, he can tell from the aura of age emanating from this package that it has been around for quite a while.

Yet, it doesn’t appear to have many characteristics. For a moment, Zheng Yi is unsure what exactly this is.

"Where did this come from?! What kind of thing is this?"

After a moment, Zheng Yi asked.

"This thing is reportedly called a Gambling Treasure Pouch skin, acquired by a humble man from a bankrupt individual in Dark Blood City."

"It is said to be an item passed down within the family. I also inquired a bit, that bankrupt individual’s ancestors had produced some Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators, but unfortunately later fell into decline, and the family is now destitute with almost all valuable items sold off."

"The reason for putting this Gambling Treasure Pouch up for sale is because his grandson was found to possess a Spirit Root, prompting the sale to support his future cultivation."

"Many were interested initially, but the old man called for a price that scared many away. Ultimately, a humble man acquired the item at seventy percent of its original price."

"I heard that you enjoy collecting various items and have issued orders that the leader of the trade caravan has the discretion to purchase special treasures. A humble man estimated that this barely counts as a treasure, so a humble man added a few Spirit Stones myself and bought it to present to you."

The chubby young man has decent strength, though his aura is unstable, clearly benefiting from the recent enhancement of his family’s power, and his breakthrough happened not long ago.

"Hmm, you are thoughtful."

Zheng Yi turned and instructed Qi Lin, "Add his name to the Blood Ignition Plan next time."

As soon as these words were spoken, the young man was overjoyed and immediately expressed his gratitude with a salute.

"Thank you for your support!"

"Go!"

With a wave of the hand, Qi Lin took the young man away, leaving Zheng Yi alone in the hall.

Looking at the Gambling Treasure Pouch in his hand, Zheng Yi’s expression was somewhat peculiar, not expecting to actually see the gambling treasure of the Immortal Realm.

In fact, Zheng Yi had heard of gambling treasures while mingling in the Immortal Domain Profound Void City among the Loose Cultivators. They are divided into several major categories: those with gambling stones, those with Illusion Spirit Blind Boxes, those with Demon Boxes, while such Gambling Treasure Pouch skins are rarely seen.

The tradition of gambling treasures is said to be inherited from ancient times, with some unique methods preventing cultivators from using Divine Thought to inspect directly. It looks like an ordinary package but hides something entirely untraceable inside.

Inside might be a real treasure, a handful of sand, nothing at all, or even a prank by predecessors; some have even opened to find a pile of feces.

This gambling treasure once circulated for a while in the Great Yi City Immortal Realm, dating back at least five hundred years, some even over a thousand years old.

The production technique that prevents cultivators from invading with Divine Thought has already been lost, originally initiated by an ancient sect known as the Heaven-Stealing Sect, which was all the rage at one time.

Many exploited this gambling trait to buy low and sell high, hedging profits. Some high-level Loose Cultivators sealed some of their possessions inside, letting them circulate outside, hoping for a fortunate fate.

Later, the Heaven-Stealing Sect collapsed overnight and vanished, the craftsmanship to create gambling treasures also became extinct, leaving the ones on the market to be both genuine and fake.

However, generally, they are still circulating among Low-Tier Cultivators or Loose Cultivators, as most gambling treasures rarely contain genuinely precious legacy items. It is uncommon for genuinely senior experts to do such a thing.

After all, with such time and effort, wouldn’t it be better to pass them onto offspring, disciples, and grand-disciples rather than gifting them to outsiders?

But nothing is absolute. Many years ago, Loose Cultivators did indeed have strokes of luck, successfully picking out precious treasures from gambling treasures, obtaining the legacy of a Purple Mansion master, or a Golden Core Cultivator, or even life-extending Elixir Pills, and even Magical Treasure Weapons, etc...

Thus, this gambling game popular among Loose Cultivators was once quite fashionable, with many trying their luck. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The Illusion Spirit Blind Boxes, gambling stones, and Demon Boxes were also hyped to sky-high prices for some time; many Loose Cultivators gambled on chance, betting their entire fortune.

However, luck belongs to only a few, with most gambling treasures yielding either useless items or nothing at all, causing those gambling cultivators to be bankrupt, families broken, and homeless people countless.

Gradually, the market was filled with fake and shoddy products, all tricks to fool people, nothing like the ancient Heaven-Stealing Sect craftsmanship, leading to disbelief.

This caused the once extremely popular gambling treasure industry to gradually turn into a heads-up and gimmicks at some high-end auctions, disappearing slowly among ordinary Loose Cultivators.

Zheng Yi hasn’t been in the limelight for long, though he has heard about gambling treasures, he has not seen such high-end stuff, which is why he didn’t react immediately upon seeing the Gambling Treasure Pouch.

"According to the legend, Heaven-Stealing Sect’s gambling treasures cannot be forcibly opened, with hidden mechanisms inside that, once triggered, will destroy the contents!"

"Moreover, the methods are quite sneaky, leaving no time for remedy, such as Miracle Elixirs being directly polluted by hidden filth, Ganoderma Treasure Ginseng being corroded away by Corpse-Dissolving Water, Secret Technique Manuals being scrambled and incorrect, and various other sinister tricks forcing you to partake in the gamble, as was the principle of this sect, Heaven-Stealing Sect..."
