Battle Through the Heavens: The Inner Struggle of Cultivation Brings Xiao Yan to Tears

"I want them all."

As he spoke, he took out more than a dozen gold coins and handed them to the other party.

Although it was a rip-off that a scroll cost a gold coin, Xiao Yang didn't really care.

All he wanted to know was why one of the scrolls inside gave him that strange feeling.

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"

The middle-aged man accepted the gold coins with some excitement.

These dozen or so gold coins are enough for him to live comfortably for a year!

Xiao Yang put the scroll that he found somewhat strange into his storage ring.

Then, it was taken into the system space along with the storage ring.

The system space can only hold items that are system rewards.

However, Xiao Yang also discovered a small bug.

That means first putting the items into the storage ring that the system rewards you with, and then you can put the storage ring and its contents into the system space.

As for the other dozen or so scrolls, he casually held them in his hand.

Next, he went to a weapons shop owned by the Xiao family.

Upon entering, the other party immediately recognized Xiao Yang.

Although Xiao Yang didn't have deep relationships with other people in the family, quite a few people still knew him.

Because he was quite talented and good-looking, many people in the Xiao family knew of his existence.

"Young Master Xiao Yang, what brings you here?"

The person in charge of this shop is also from the Xiao family, but because he did not reach the seventh level of Dou Qi during his coming-of-age ceremony, he came to be in charge of these Xiao family businesses.

Knowing that Xiao Yang had reached the seventh level of Dou Qi, a status far beyond his own, the other party was extremely enthusiastic.

"Please let me know if you need anything."

"Or I can customize any kind of weapon you want to have made."

Xiao Yang said gently.

"I need a sturdier target or sandbag."

"Or a wooden dummy made of good material would also work."

Upon hearing this, the manager spoke directly.

“Young Master Xiao Yang, you’ve come at the right time. We recently had a nice sandbag made in the shop.”

As he spoke, he led Xiao Yang to the warehouse in the backyard.

Inside, there were many weapons.

In the center of the warehouse, there were several sandbags and wooden dummy stakes.

The other party led Xiao Yang to a brown sandbag.

The sandbags are made of hard black mountain rock.

The surface of this sandbag looks rather unusual; it appears to be the hide of some kind of magical beast.

“Young Master Xiao Yang, this sandbag is made from the steel hide of a Tier 1 magical beast, the Steel-skinned Ferocious Bull.”

"The base is made of hard and heavy black mountain rock."

"This sandbag can withstand the attacks of a fighter's combat techniques."

Xiao Yang looked at the sandbag in front of him and stepped forward to try it out.

The entire sandbag was very sturdy, and the base was heavy enough, making it seem perfect for him to practice Bajiquan.

"How much is this sandbag? I'll take it."

A smile appeared on the manager's face.

"Since you want it, Young Master Xiao Yang, I'll just give you a cost price."

"You only need to give me 230 gold coins."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yang didn't hesitate and immediately took out the gold coins he had accumulated and began counting them.

This sandbag is definitely worth the price.

After all, the cost of the black mountain rock and the steel sheet of the steel-skinned bull alone is very high.

Black Mountain Rock is an extremely hard stone, so hard that even a fighter would have difficulty breaking it, making it very troublesome to mine.

Needless to say, the steel-skinned ferocious bull...

The opponent's defense was extremely strong; it would take several fighters working together to kill him.

The steel skin on the Steel-skinned Ferocious Bull is also the most precious material besides the magic core.

This price is practically at cost.

Soon, Xiao Yang counted out 230 gold coins, and his money bag was now much lighter.

After counting them, the manager said with a smile.

"Just right."

"Young Master Xiao Yang, I'll have someone deliver this to your courtyard in a moment."

Xiao Yang nodded upon hearing this, thinking it would save him the trouble of taking it back himself.

The sandbag was quite heavy, and he couldn't easily carry it back.

After buying the sandbags, Xiao Yang returned to his courtyard.

He planned to go back and see if there was anything unusual about the scroll he had obtained earlier.

After returning to the courtyard, he casually placed the other dozen or so useless scrolls aside.

Next, he created a task.

[Mission: Obtain a sandbag; Reward: A set of special arm guards]

After setting up the task, he took out the storage ring from the system space.

Inputting a bit of Dou Qi, Xiao Yang moved his mind, and a scroll immediately appeared in his hand.

When he held the scroll in his hand, he could sense something was wrong.

However, no one knows what's wrong with this scroll.

He opened the scroll and saw several large characters written on it.

The Mystery of the Disappearance of Ice Emperor Hai Bodong

The Love-Hate Relationship Between the Former Sect Master of Yunlan Sect and Queen Medusa

……

These are all strange tales and anecdotes from the martial arts world.

However, Xiao Yang could tell at a glance that there was basically nothing real among them.

I don't know who wrote this nonsense.

If Yunshan, Haibodong, and Queen Medusa discover this, they might kill the author and then desecrate his corpse.

The entire scroll is very long and made of some unusual material.

However, the content above is of little value.

Xiao Yang tried dripping some water on it, but nothing changed.

He even picked it up and heated it over a candle.

However, nothing changed.

Xiao Yang didn't know what to do at that moment.

You can't exactly burn it with fire, can you?

What if I guess wrong and the scroll burns out?

Just then, Xiao Yang suddenly thought of a solution.

Try creating a task using the system!

He had discovered it long before.

When he created the proficiency task before, he didn't set a specific number directly, but rather a close number.

At the same time, this was also what he himself thought.

Then, the system created the task.

He might be able to try this method, albeit on the fringes.

He first tried to obtain a combat skill quest.

They created combat skills from Yellow Rank to Heaven Rank, but unfortunately, none of them were successful.

Next, he began to set up a quest to obtain the elixir formula.

After all, he was able to sense the unusual nature of the scroll, probably because his soul power was relatively strong.

If that's the case, this scroll is very likely related to alchemists!

He began to try them one by one.

Obtained a first-grade elixir formula...

Obtained Rank 2...

Chapter 18 Fourth-Grade Alchemy Notes!

Soon, he tried all the pill formulas from grade one to grade nine, but unfortunately, they all failed.

He started trying other things, techniques, secret methods...
