Matrix Survival: One random treasure chest per day

Chapter 773 Magical weapon?

"The fact that they dare not use the Twisted Magic Crystal on themselves shows that their spiritual bodies have become so solid not because of the Twisted Magic Crystal."

On the way, Miriel leaned on Li Zheng's shoulder and whispered, "If we want to improve our mental strength, we need to absorb magic crystal energy. I'm a little worried that there might be hidden dangers in doing so."

"There won't be any hidden dangers," Li Zheng reassured her. "I've cleansed every single magic crystal of its evil energy. Yan Bujin probably can't handle that kind of evil intent, which is why they don't dare to use it on themselves..."

At this point, he suddenly seemed a little less confident.

Even a sufficiently powerful mental force can erase the evil energy within the distorted magic crystal. The strength of the inexhaustible nascent soul is immeasurable, but it is certainly no weaker than someone who has condensed a double-digit number of nodes.

The White Crystal only needs the power of three or four nodes to violently erase the evil thoughts within the Twisted Crystal.

There's no reason why they can't do it, and there's no way they can't do it.

“He said the Twisted Magic Crystal is a Ghost Soul, but I reckon it’s just similar and not actually the same thing,” Li Zheng said. “Don’t forget, he only realized the resentment I was carrying after so long, and he also misjudged the Dao Image before. I wouldn’t be surprised if he did something even more unreliable.”

“That makes sense.” Miriel nodded with a smile, agreeing with Li Zheng’s statement.

As for the cultivation technique, there would definitely be no results in the short term, so Li Zheng didn't have high expectations for it.

As long as Yan Bujin can develop a somewhat complete and usable cultivation method within a year, he can work with the terminal to study the principle behind the effectiveness of the so-called cultivation method.

While technology may lack other advantages, its ability to improve efficiency through backdoors is absolutely unparalleled.

For example, Li Zheng thought that if the cultivators in the novel could understand the principle of absorbing and refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in their bodies through technological means, could they create a simulator to refine it, and then directly inject the refined spiritual energy into the cultivator's body in the form of "enlightenment", thus creating a large number of high-level cultivators in a short period of time?

As for the potential weakness of an unstable foundation due to forcing growth, as long as my strength improves quickly enough, how could my unstable Nascent Soul stage be no match for a Foundation Establishment stage with a solid foundation?
Oh, is transcending tribulation too difficult?

It's ok!
Why not find a way to research all the factors that affect the intensity of the Heavenly Tribulation, and then create equipment and instruments that can help resist the Heavenly Tribulation and reduce the difficulty of passing through it, according to each person's needs?

There's one thing about working in the tech world: as long as you don't lose your mind, there's always a way to solve more problems!
After returning home, the two of them engaged in sexual activity until dawn, when the treasure chest refreshed.

"Time's up, the treasure chest has refreshed." Li Zheng sat up from the bed and took out a shimmering treasure chest.

"Hmm, we just got an 'Inexhaustible Words' yesterday, and I guess they'll start giving out Wishing Stone fragments again today." Miriel nodded up and down, her words slightly slurred.

"Anyway, it's a waste not to extract it, so let the fragments be fragments." Li Zheng casually opened the treasure chest, reached inside and touched it, but unexpectedly, it wasn't a fragment of the wishing stone, but a small cloth bag.

"Hey, another shipment!"

He took out the cloth bag, and the treasure chest disappeared on the spot.

Miriel wiped her mouth, leaned closer to look at the sachet-like object, and asked, "What is this?"

"It looks like a woman's sachet, but why doesn't it have any scent?" Li Zheng released the restriction of his mental power on the Eye of Preers and got the answer of "unknown item".

Now, whenever he is alone with Miriel, he uses his mental power to block Old Pu's senses, preventing Old Pu from seeing any overly erotic scenes.

This may be why Old Pu was unhappy. For a long time, it has not paid any attention to Li Zheng. It only makes a sound when Li Zheng needs it and asks it.

"What the hell is this unknown item?" Li Zheng continued to seal Preers' Eye, keeping it blind.

"Should we open it and take a look?" Miriel suggested. "There might be something good inside."

"What good stuff could there be... Huh?" Li Zheng didn't think much of it at first, but when he reached into the bag, he found it was empty!
How could a treasure chest give you an empty bag that's useless?

He examined the bag thoroughly, turning it over and over, trying to find any useful clues. However, the bag was unremarkable; it was just a plain gray cloth bag, and the material didn't look like anything valuable.

Miral had a sudden inspiration: "Could this be the...magic weapon that Yan Bujin was talking about?"

Li Zheng nodded: "I think so too."

The bag felt incredibly light in his hand, weighing at most a gram, which reminded him of the so-called storage treasures in novels—the Qiankun Bag.

"But... how do I use it?" Li Zheng looked through it for a while, but had no clue, so he simply threw it aside: "Never mind, I'll ask Yan Bujin again tomorrow."

“Wait a minute.” Miriel was very interested in the bag. She took it in her hand and looked at it for a moment, as if she had discovered something: “Try to probe inside with your spiritual power. There’s something inside.”

Things that can only be seen with mental power?
Li Zheng released a wisp of air, which went inside the bag opening, and sure enough, he found a strange pattern at the bottom of the bag.

The pattern was an octagon, filled with strange and complex patterns like the Huarong Road puzzle, with one piece missing.

Is this a jigsaw puzzle?

Or should we use our mental power to create a similar pattern to fill in the missing parts?

Li Zheng didn't dare to try rashly. He remembered that cultivators' storage magic treasures all had self-destruct functions, in order to prevent others from stealing their hard-earned treasures.

As long as the world that Yan Bujin comes from has the same rules as those in cultivation novels, then such methods are definitely not lacking.

Having finally received a series of treasure chests, Li Zheng didn't want to ruin the treasure that resembled a Qiankun Bag because of his impatience.

"This should be the Dao pattern that Yan Bujin mentioned. We don't understand these things, so we should try not to touch it." Li Zheng withdrew his mental energy and tried to put the bag into the capsule, but he failed for the first time ever.

The bag remained firmly in his hand.

This is strange!

Li Zheng had put quite a few items from the treasure chest into capsules, so why did he fail to collect them from this bag?

"What's wrong?" Miriel asked vaguely when she saw him staring blankly at the bag, his head, which had been moving up and down, paused.

Li Zheng placed his hand on Miriel's head to reassure her and let her focus on her work, casually saying, "We might really be rolling in money! I was trying to put the bag into the capsule just now, but I failed! Do you know what that means?"

"Hmm?"

“Capsule dwellings are created using spatial technology, and they possess certain unique characteristics,” Li Zheng explained. “In principle, spatial technology makes it difficult to achieve nested operations, so the fact that it can resist being taken in by a capsule indicates that this bag is also an item that does not contain any internal space!”

In other words, my guess was correct!

This is the Qiankun bag used by cultivators!

I just don't know what's inside.

If we could get more Marrow Cleansing Pills and Qi Cultivation Pills, or even more pills, or cultivation techniques, etc.

The value of this Qiankun Bag is estimated to exceed that of all the treasure chests Li Zheng has opened since entering the outer city!
boo~
Miriel took a breath, then sat up and said, "You don't think this thing is Yan Bujin's, do you? He sent the treasure chest over yesterday, and today he's sending his entire fortune too?"

"Impossible..." Li Zheng was unsure: "Didn't he say that his storage magic treasure and his physical body were both destroyed by the tribulation lightning?"
