Mortal Mirror

Zhu Zhu sighed repeatedly, "Oh, you silly thing, I didn't expect you to achieve martial arts, while I, Zhu Zhu... Sigh... Never mind, it's embarrassing.

By the way, since you don't have any martial arts techniques, how did you manage to awaken your martial abilities? It's too incredible."

In fact, Li Ergou didn't know the answer to this question either, and he couldn't possibly tell Zhu Zhu about the three pages of nameless techniques, or he might be asking for trouble.

As Zhao Tuozi said, the only people who can keep secrets are the dead, so the best way is to tell no one.

Thinking of this, he could only say helplessly, "This is my secret, can I not tell you?"

Zhu Zhu was slightly stunned, and immediately understood that Li Ergou must have some unspeakable secrets. Actually, she was just curious, and of course she wouldn't make things difficult for him just to know his secrets.

She chuckled and said, "I was just asking casually. By the way, this Zhao Tuozi is a demonic cultivator, he should have a lot of good things on him. Let's search him."

"Good things? What good things could he have?"

Zhu Zhu said, "Silly, don't you think about it? Where did this guy's iron claws, which are so big, come from?"

Only then did Li Ergou remember, and he patted his head and said, "I really didn't notice it."

Looking at that pair of iron claws, each one was two feet long. The five fingers on the arm plus the palm were as big as two heads. Wasn't this an enlarged version of an arm?

This thing was huge, and it was impossible to carry it on his back. He really didn't see where Zhao Tuozi carried his weapon.

He held the claw in his palm and was surprised to find that one claw actually weighed more than two hundred pounds. Two claws would be more than four hundred pounds. Carrying this thing, let alone fighting, even walking would be exhausting.

He looked at Zhu Zhu with a puzzled expression and said, "Do you know what's going on?"

Zhu Zhu came to Zhao Tuozi's side and groped around his body for a while, and found a small bag on his waist. The bag was the size of a palm, gray-brown, and covered with countless mysterious runes and patterns.

Zhu Zhu said, "This is his secret. This thing is called a 'Dimensional Object', also known as a 'Cosmos Sack'. 'Dimensional Object' is a general term, and 'Cosmos Sack' is its real name, meaning that the universe and all things can be contained within a square inch."

Li Ergou thought to himself, "So that's how it is. My bronze mirror can also store things. Could it also be a Dimensional Object?"

Before he could think about it, he heard Zhu Zhu say, "Don't underestimate this little thing. It has its own world inside. The mouth of this bag is edged with copper wire, which means it's the lowest-end Cosmos Sack. The space inside is at most no more than a zhang [approximately 3.3 meters].

To open this thing, you must have cultivated divine techniques, so that you can generate divine sense. By the way, I haven't told you yet, but I just awakened my divine abilities not long ago. My divine sense is very weak, but I can still open this bag."

She snickered, and reached out to the Cosmos Sack. Soon, she poured out a lot of things from the bag with a rustling sound.

Talismans, two black balls the size of fists, emitting a strong resentment, which were obviously demonic objects, and some silver and broken gold.

At this moment, she saw an exquisite box, not big, the size of a fist, covered with gold foil, depicting very beautiful crane patterns.

She was slightly surprised. This thing looked like it contained valuable items. She picked up the box and opened it immediately. Inside were three golden coins.

These golden coins were pure gold in color, about an inch in size, and half a finger thick. On one side were four majestic characters, 'Dao Repository Under Heaven', and in the center was a pattern of a huge and magnificent palace. If your eyesight was good enough, you could see three large characters written on the palace plaque... White Jade Capital.

On the other side, the three characters 'Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism' were written on the top, left, and right, and a cross was written at the bottom. In the center was a Taiji yin-yang fish pattern.

Seeing this golden coin, Zhu Zhu immediately said with surprise, "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect that this Zhao Tuozi was so wealthy."

Li Ergou didn't understand and said, "Wealthy? Isn't it just a golden coin? It's strange that I rarely see gold made into the shape of a coin. It might be worth some money, but not enough to be wealthy."

Zhu Zhu pouted and said, "Hmph, that's because you don't know the goods. I guess you don't know that this golden coin is not ordinary gold. This thing is a Dao Repository Gold Coin."

"Dao Repository Gold Coin? What kind of money is that? What's so different about it?" Li Ergou was puzzled. Seeing Zhu Zhu's happy appearance, he thought that this coin must have something special about it.

Zhu Zhu was not annoyed, and patiently explained to Li Ergou, "There are copper coins, silver, and gold in the mortal world, but after you enter the martial arts and divine realms, these things can't buy too precious spiritual medicines and some magical artifacts and treasures.

This requires Dao Repository Gold Coins.

It is said that the three families of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism jointly established a very mysterious place called Dao Repository Under Heaven. This thing is produced by Dao Repository Under Heaven, made of divine gold mixed with more than a dozen special materials, indestructible, and is itself a very subtle magical artifact.

Of course, it is valuable in itself, but what is more valuable is what is inside.

This thing contains pure spiritual energy. Do you see the number ten on this thing? It proves that this thing contains ten units of pure spiritual energy, which is the Qi that we divine cultivators cultivate, also called Yuan Qi.

You must know that the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is thin. If you practice normally, without a lot of spiritual energy and the assistance of various spiritual medicines and elixirs, you may not be able to build a foundation in your entire life.

And this small ten Dao Repository Coin contains ten cubic units of pure spiritual energy, which is all the spiritual energy that a cultivator needs to absorb for a year."

With this thing, your cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds. This thing is widely used for cultivation and purchasing various spiritual medicines. Anyway, this thing is a common currency for cultivators.

The amount of spiritual energy contained in this thing is indicated by the number on it, which are one, two, five, ten, hundred, thousand respectively. I know that the largest unit is thousand.

In addition, Dao Repository Gold Coins are actually divided into two types. One type is Dao Repository Under Heaven that I mentioned, and the other is called 'Dao Repository Connecting to the Divine', which seals the cultivation power of divine cultivators inside.

These cultivation bases are generally from cultivators who know that their lifespan is running out. In order to make some contributions to their families or sects, they will seal their cultivation in coins for their family's younger disciples and sect disciples to use.

Some cultivators who are in urgent need of exchanging important things, or who are too short of money, will also seal their cultivation out for sale or to buy things.

The unit of this sealed power will be smaller, and it is also divided into one, two, five, ten, hundred, and thousand, representing one month of cultivation, five months of cultivation, and so on.

Whether it is Dao Repository Under Heaven or Dao Repository Connecting to the Divine, the price is not cheap. For convenience, these coins are also called one zhu, two zhu, five zhu, ten zhu, and so on.

One zhu coin can be exchanged for a hundred taels of gold, which can be said to be of great value.

Li Ergou asked in confusion, "In that case, how do you know if the spiritual energy in this coin is full, and whether some of it has been stolen?"
