Chapter 23: Yue Ling's Generous Gift! [Fourth Update]

"I'm not dead?"

Yue Ling slowly woke up from her coma. Her first thought was confusion; according to the previous situation, she should have been dead for sure.

The fact that she was still conscious meant she had been saved by someone.

"Could it be that some of my guards are still alive?" Yue Ling said subconsciously.

But instantly, she dismissed the idea.

Facing a Top-Tier Vicious Beast, it was impossible for her guards to still be alive.

Opening her eyes, she found the surroundings were somewhat dark, but her keen senses told her someone was nearby.

"You're awake!"

A slightly youthful voice drifted over.

Although Yue Ling couldn't see the person's face clearly, she knew who it was from the voice. "Ye Tian, was it you who saved me?"

She wanted to stand up, but her body was too weak, so she could only manage to sit up.

"That's right. I happened to see you collapsed on the ground, so I brought you to this small cave!"

Ye Tian spoke up.

"Thank you for saving me!" Yue Ling said gratefully.

"It's nothing, I just happened to run into you!" Ye Tian smiled slightly.

In truth, he had considered not saving Yue Ling; he could have even obtained the treasures and money on her person, but doing so would undoubtedly go against his conscience.

Moreover, Yue Ling's nature wasn't bad; this could be seen from how she didn't have any extreme reaction when he refused to join the Martial Pavilion.

If it were someone like Mo Shao Bei, he wouldn't just not save them, he would kick them while they were down.

Suddenly.

A soft light emanated from Yue Ling's hand. It was a stone, but it acted like a lightbulb, illuminating the dark cave brightly.

"This is…"

Ye Tian was somewhat surprised.

He had carried Yue Ling all the way to the cave and hadn't noticed this stone at all; if it had been there, he felt he would have sensed it.

"This is a Light Stone. It can store light and is very rare; even in large bases, only a few people have them," Yue Ling explained without hiding anything.

She wasn't afraid of Ye Tian being greedy for a Light Stone. After all, this thing was just rare but not particularly valuable. If Ye Tian wanted one, she wouldn't mind giving him one.

Yue Ling placed the Light Stone on a nearby rock, and then a bottle of Healing Liquid appeared in her hand.

Drinking the Healing Liquid in one gulp, Yue Ling waited quietly for the liquid to recover her injuries.

"It appeared out of thin air!"

Ye Tian was certain that Yue Ling had suddenly produced this bottle of Healing Liquid; creating something from nothing was impossible.

In other words, Yue Ling must have the legendary storage equipment on her.

Furthermore, the Rank of Yue Ling's Healing Liquid was very high, much more Advanced than his Clear Spring Liquid.

He had also given her a bottle of his Clear Spring Liquid while she was unconscious, but it had only slightly alleviated her injuries. In contrast, Yue Ling's Healing Liquid allowed her skin wounds to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeming to notice Ye Tian's gaze, Yue Ling said with a smile, "You've never seen a Storage Pouch, have you? This thing is made from the Spatial Pocket of a Space Kangaroo, then refined slightly by a Martial Artist with Space Talent. It can be refined and used by a Martial Artist."

"What is a Space Kangaroo?"

Ye Tian asked curiously.

As Yue Ling recounted, Ye Tian finally learned the origin of the Space Kangaroo. It was an Advanced Vicious Beast with great speed, immense strength, and high intelligence, making it a very difficult Advanced Vicious Beast to hunt.

The pocket on a Space Kangaroo possesses spatial attributes and can store many things; it's called a Spatial Pocket. Once a Space Kangaroo is hunted, a Martial Artist with Space Talent can refine the Spatial Pocket to form a Storage Pouch.

Of course, it wasn't only Spatial Pockets that could be refined into Storage Pouches; any item with spatial attributes would work, but the Space Kangaroo's Spatial Pocket was the most practical and easiest material to find.

"I've learned something new!"

Ye Tian couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

It wasn't his fault for not knowing; after all, he only came from a small base like Lin Hai Base and naturally couldn't compare to Yue Ling, who came from a large base.

For the next two days, Ye Tian stayed with Yue Ling. Since her injuries hadn't recovered, it wouldn't be right for him to leave alone to search for the Lighthouse Jellyfish.

Although a bit of time was wasted, it wasn't without gain; he learned a lot of knowledge from Yue Ling's mouth.

For example, the Realms above Great Martial Warrior.

In Lin Hai Base, a Great Martial Warrior was the strongest; there were only one or two on the surface, and even including those hidden in the shadows, the number didn't exceed double digits. But in a large base, a Great Martial Warrior could only be considered a mid-level Martial Artist. The Realm above Great Martial Warrior was called a Grandmaster Level Martial Artist.

A Grandmaster Level Martial Artist could sweep through a group of Great Martial Warriors, and their lifespan far exceeded that of ordinary people, reaching as much as 200 years.

When Ye Tian learned that Grandmaster level experts could live for 200 years, he was instantly stunned.

Thus, he gained another goal: to charge into the Grandmaster level Realm.

Unfortunately, becoming a Grandmaster was far too difficult. Even those with Advanced Cultivation Talent had less than a ten percent chance of becoming a Grandmaster. Only those with Top-Tier Cultivation Talent had a hundred percent chance of becoming a Grandmaster.

"Ye Tian, I'm preparing to head back to the large base!"

Once Yue Ling's injuries were mostly healed, she spoke up.

"Then stay safe on the road!" Ye Tian said.

Before leaving, Yue Ling tossed a bundle to Ye Tian. "I think you might have a use for the things inside, so I'm giving them to you!"

Before Ye Tian could refuse, Yue Ling departed at a speed so fast that even he couldn't react in time.

Seeing this, Ye Tian could only give a helpless smile.

He opened the bundle and found a Secret Manual, ten bottles of Vicious Beast blood, and ten Gold Cards!

"Holy cow, an Intermediate Yuan Power Body Tempering Method, ten bottles of Advanced Vicious Beast blood, and ten Gold Cards equivalent to 10 million yuan. This gift is too heavy!" Ye Tian was truly startled.

The most precious among them was the Intermediate Yuan Power Body Tempering Method. He didn't know if the great families of Lin Hai Base possessed it, but ordinary Martial Artists had no way to obtain it; no amount of money could buy it.

"With the Intermediate Yuan Power Body Tempering Method plus ten bottles of Advanced Vicious Beast blood, I'm confident I can advance to the Elite Martial Warrior level within three months!"

Ye Tian was extremely confident.

Originally, he had planned to go to Death Lake immediately to find the Lighthouse Jellyfish, but now he had changed his mind. He planned to wait until he Advanced to the Elite Martial Warrior level before going to Death Lake; it would be safer that way.

Actually, now wasn't a suitable time to go to Death Lake anyway, because Yue Ling and the others had caused such a big commotion there. Those Vicious Beasts might be constantly watching for outside Martial Artists, so going now would be equivalent to seeking death.

Three months might be enough for Death Lake to calm down; going then would undoubtedly be the best choice.

Thus, Ye Tian prepared to return to Lin Hai Base.
