The storage ring wasn't very spacious, but the items within were all exuding powerful energy fluctuations, clearly indicating that they were all high-rank items.
There were a hundred vital stones glowing with a dazzling white light, which was equivalent to a million spirit stones.
There were also two seventh-grade immortal pills, Spirit Regeneration Pills, which had extremely potent healing properties and could also enhance one's life force.
There was a high-rank spirit sword and three intermediate-rank spirit swords. These were most likely spirit tools that Yang Yuan had gifted to An Lin after witnessing how wasteful An Lin's Sword Burial Technique was.
There was also about half a kilogram of Blood God Jade, which could be made into a bed or chair that could be used to slowly strengthen and consolidate one's domain. This was the most desirable item for Soul Formation Stage cultivators. Just this item alone was worth five hundred thousand spirit stones!
It was a pity that it was useless to An Lin as he didn't even have a domain.
The final item was a ring that glowed with a faint yellow light. An Lin couldn't identify what it was.
There was a slip of paper on it that introduced the origin of this item.
This was a mystic treasure that Yang Yuan had found in an ancient underground palace in the southern region of the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds.
These four rings were each engraved with the words "North, South, East, West". The wearer of these rings would have a certain probability of summoning the power of a heroic spirit of the Ancient Man Tribe.
Furthermore, Yang Yuan speculated that these rings were most likely symbols of status within the Ancient Man Tribe. However, he was unable to decipher what these rings were. All he knew was that these were his greatest rewards from his trip to the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds.
Now that his life had been saved by An Lin and the others, he was giving these three rings to them as a token of gratitude.
An Lin, Mo Hai, and Shangguan Yi each received the "North, South, East", and East rings.
An Lin brought out the "East" ring. There were golden ripples flowing on the surface of the ring, and it was extremely beautiful to look at. He heaved a forlorn sigh. He didn't think that Yang Yuan would be willing to give him a treasure like this in order to repay his debt of gratitude.
He refined the ring before putting it on his finger. A vast and powerful intent emerged from the ring before latching onto his consciousness. This was an ancient black dragon that hovered above the stars. Its eyes were like the sun as it opened and closed, and they were imbued with boundless ferocious might.
An Lin's heart palpitated as he experienced that incomparably powerful will.
If he could summon this power, it would definitely be able to destroy the world.
However, he knew very well that with his current strength, it was impossible for him to summon this Black Dragon.
He even felt that the black ancient dragon was the true owner of the ring.
An Lin shook his head and stopped thinking about it. He closed his eyes and continued to rest.
At the Vermilion Bird Sect. The Demonic Sealing Vine that Shangguan Yi had brought back from the Vermilion Bird Sect had been placed in a restricted area by the elders of the sect. This was an ancient plant that was very similar to the Vermilion Bird Sect's divine tree, so it was extremely valuable.
At the same time, An Lin and the others' experiences in the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds were also widely circulated within the Vermilion Bird Sect.
The story of how the three of them risked their lives to save Yang Yuan in the southern region of the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds drew the admiration and admiration of the sect disciples. Gradually, the disciples of the Vermilion Bird Sect began to develop a general impression of the most powerful in-name disciple in history, An Lin.
"Hey, have you heard? Our in-name disciple, An Lin, killed the Divine General of the Ancient Man Tribe three times in the Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds! All of the Divine Generals of the Ancient Man Tribe are Return to Void Stage mighty figures, and I heard that the Black Phoenix is at the pinnacle of Return to Void Stage! "
"Huh? Why did I hear that An Lin killed the Black Phoenix ninety-nine times in a row? In the end, the entire Vermilion Bird Trial Grounds wept tears of blood, and even the demonic moon wept and begged for mercy before An Lin was sealed in the sacrificial altar … "
"Er … Regardless of which version is true, he's super bad * ss. I have to find him in the future and have a chat with him."
"That's true, but why is he only an in-name disciple if he's so powerful?"
"You probably don't know about this, but he's a student of the Celestial Court's Xiuxian United University and doesn't care about being an in-name disciple. He's even more famous in the Celestial Court, and he's already a legendary figure with many powerful titles, such as Heaven and Earth Collapsing with a Single Finger, Bag God, Self-Detonation Demon, Tamer of Divine Lightning … "
…
An Lin focused on recuperating, and his injuries were improving day by day.
Five days later, he finally made a full recovery from his injuries.
When he rode on Dabai around the Vermilion Bird Sect, he felt as if the gazes of the disciples had changed quite a bit.
He couldn't quite put his finger on it, but he could roughly describe these gazes. In the past, they only thought he was handsome, but now, not only did they think he was handsome, but he also had an aura to him!
"An Lin, do you see the adoration in the eyes of all the disciples? How do you feel? "Xu Xiaolan walked beside An Lin and asked in a sweet voice.
An Lin smiled. "Not much, I'm already used to it."
Xu Xiaolan rolled her eyes at An Lin and harrumphed lightly. "It's a good thing you have such good lightning manipulation techniques. Otherwise, you'd be struck to death by lightning sooner or later."
"Then do you know why I'm so good at lightning manipulation?" An Lin asked with a mysterious expression.
"That's because you're the only one in this world who can flex!" Xu Xiaolan snapped.
An Lin's expression faltered upon hearing this. He didn't think that his line would be stolen by Xu Xiaolan!
"Xiaolan knows me the best."
An Lin heaved a sigh of relief after a short while.
A smug smile appeared on Xu Xiaolan's face, as if to say, "I've known you for a long time now."
"By the way, your injuries have mostly healed, and Yang Yuan's injuries have mostly healed as well. The elders of the sect have decided that the Holy Vermilion Flame blessing ceremony will commence tomorrow. As long as you're acknowledged by the Holy Vermilion Flame, you'll be able to obtain the power to manifest a holy flame in your sea of vital energy, "Xu Xiaolan continued.
"Do I need to make any preparations?" An Lin asked.
"Just don't eat the holy flame." Xu Xiaolan pursed her lips.
An Lin: "…"
Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived at the border of the Vermilion Bird Sect.
The lush canopy here extended for over a hundred meters before reaching an altitude of tens of thousands of meters.
An Lin arrived at a place that only the two of them knew about. This was a very thick tree branch, which resembled a wooden path that could allow two people to walk side by side. There was also a long wooden chair on the branch.
An Lin told Dabai to play off to the side before sitting down beside Xu Xiaolan on the chair.
They looked up at the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, as well as the vast land down below, and savored the tranquility of this place.
A light breeze blew past, carrying with it the faint aroma of the divine tree.
The green leaves rustled in the wind.
"An Lin, do you think you have a protagonist's halo?" Xu Xiaolan suddenly asked.
An Lin was shocked. "How did you know?!"
"Because of your ability to attract trouble." Xu Xiaolan snapped.
"But when it comes to attracting trouble, Sister Shangguan Yi is the only one I admire." An Lin was quite humble this time.
"Hmm, I also admire Sister Shangguan Yi. She's a very tragic character from birth …" Xu Xiaolan heaved a forlorn sigh as her brows furrowed slightly. "Her mother passed away during childbirth when she was born."
An Lin's expression became serious upon hearing this, and he listened carefully.
"After that, vital energy gathered within her body, which summoned a demonic wolf, which brutally murdered her entire family. She was also captured by the demonic wolf for its own consumption.
"However, the demonic wolf encountered a cultivator along the way. The cultivator slew the demonic wolf and sent her back to the village, but none of the villagers wanted to adopt her.
"The cultivator saw that she had a special constitution, but his cultivation base wasn't very high, so he didn't know how to nurture her. After a few twists and turns, she was finally sent to our sect and became the disciple of Daoist Priest Chi Yan.
"However, Daoist Priest Chi Yan died during a mission less than a year after that.
"After that, Taoist Master Ling Yun became her master. In less than half a year, Taoist Master Ling Yun died in a battle with the Blood Clan."
"Then there was Daoist Priest Huang Long. In less than a year, he was poisoned and died."
"After that, Daoist Priest Hong Zhao became her master, but he died during a mission to annihilate a demonic sect three months later …
"This is very strange. Everyone knows that Sister Shangguan Yi is not to be blamed for what happened, but no one dares to accept her as their master anymore …"
An Lin: "…"
