As Ming Shin further explored another fragment, he saw various poses of men and women. It showed hundreds of young and pretty women were tainted by this evil guy when he was alive. His face became beet red after seeing such beastial nature.
Feeling to lose control to some strange emotion dwelling within, he quickly discarded this fragment and took big breath. Cough, he started exploring other fragments. After finding some useless fragments, he discovered some huge thick beacon fragment.
He did not fail to notice that much time has been spent and a new day was already beginning. I shall explore his fragments later when I find time. He quickly made sure that his robes and appearance all restored to normal.
Just when he started to move, his feet touched a cloth. He bent down and picked up this ragged cloth which is dusty. Only then he found that it was a very small bag possibly enough to hold a couple of jade bottles.
He was about to ignore it but the void soul seemed to let him perceive something. He quickly opened the bag and there seemed to be nothing in it. When he looked deeply, the void soul helped him to see a vision beyond the current space.
There seems to be another dimension in it which completely blew his senses. 'Wasn't it empty just now? There exist things which the eyes cannot see but the consciousness perceives?' his brain was trying to contemplate this new thing.
Earlier he saw an illusion which did not exist but now, he cannot see which actually exists, though not in this dimension. Carefully looking inside it, he could see there seem to be three jade vials, and also various jades which seem to record some information.
There are also few hundred of crystal like structures which seem to be of very precious in nature. There are also two books, and some heaps of black coins which occupied most of the space. In one conspicuous corner, however there seems to be a chest which was locked.
'Well, this is too much for me to take. For now, I shall hide these in the robes and go back to my team' he left after removing any traces of tracks left here. As soon as he approached the place, his consciousness has found the masked guy already jumping around in search of him.
'Damn him, where is the kid now? I have even been especially told by the commander that no harm shall befall him' Tie Min was panicking. Soon he found Ming Shin sleeping on one of the tree tops. He almost tripped his feet from the branch as he saw the latter sleeping so far away from when he was resting at night.
After the two women woke up, both of them left together a bit far to clean up themselves. Soon, the three of them started their journey forward. Ming Shin said he seemed to spot something the other side of where he has been last night.
He was clearly thinking that the evil spirit should not exist in that place. after all it is not a road side cabbage to wait and picked upon. He decided to explore that place later tonight. At mid day in the afternoon, they found some dried up animal foot prints.
Carefully following them, they found a huge opening to a cave and it seems to be at least a level 3 monster beast cave. It was strange that there seem be no sign of it. The news was soon relayed back by Fei Ying to Han Shuang.
It seems there were two teams earlier who reported similar findings in different directions. Soon she immediately gave orders for everyone to move and divide the team into three groups and keep in touch with the other two teams yet to report.
Soon a team of ten members greeted Ming Shin's team and started exploring the cave for any hidden traps or discoveries. There are only some bones and some tattered clothes. There are also some wild herbs growing but nothing of importance.
It is the same case with the other two teams who found similar caves. Nothing much to gain, but they could guess these cave owners previously must have been attacking the convoy few months back. They must either be dead or long way to find their way back.
It has been nearly week now and all the nearby caves seemed to be explored. The two teams in the beginning who explored have one survivor each from the silent team. The situation was dire as one of the teams was attacked by a level 4 beast and the other seems to have fallen into a hole.
The member of silent team could not explore alone and reported back. Han Shuang felt a bit tricky about the situation. Already losing four members, she was not ready to lose more of those with the strength this team possesses.
A retreat was soon ordered to head back to the scouting division. Only then Ming Shin observed that he could not find Jin Hao anywhere. 'He must be in of the two teams' Ming Shin lamented. Though he wasn't very sad about it, it still hurt him a little knowing that his roommate had simply lost his life in such a mission.
'I had my fair share of ordeal I guess. Who knows what would have happened if the evil spirit were successful?' he was grateful that time and time again he seems to face deadly encounters and being saved.
Ming Shin needed time to grow strong also to explore his rewards from this trip. The biggest gain in the entire was not the spatial bag but the discovery of Void Soul and it's importance.
There wasn't much exciting while returning too as many of the beasts have participated in the attack few months back. It was mostly level 2 monsters who didn't even dare to come near after watching such a huge mob.
After the team reached back, the vice commanders quickly reported their journey and various rewards as well as the discovery of a hole. This was soon also informed to Li Kui and other elders. It was decided that another expedition with one of the elders supervising shall take place soon.
News was conveyed to Bi Jun about Jin Hao's probable death by Ming Shin. "Brother Hai, Jin Hao might seem like a bad person, but he is not malicious. I have been room mate with him for three years now" the former felt sad.
The latter just sighed at that and started cooking the meal for both of them. Later in the evening he started to first concentrate and read the biggest memory fragment. It has a vast knowledge on how the Boundless Saint got an ancient inheritance named "Boundless Sutra".
It is to be best practiced before Qi transformation as the sutra shall mold the required amount of qi and density in accordance. It can be practiced in later stages too, but then the foundation would be unstable and cannot completely grasp the true extent of it.
It is also the reason why Boundless Saint was so lustful, a butcher and had incomparable rage. In order to reduce these effects he used to retreat for decades at a time and this time was when he used to study various alchemy scriptures on his own.
He once saw a beautiful woman in a carriage and went to the Flower Valley sect following her. The Flower Valley sect was one of the first rate forces which only consisted of women. As the name suggested, they are mainly proficient is cultivating various medical herbs and pills.
It was there he applied some restriction and laid waste to all the beautiful women in the sect and killed them. From there he acquired the ancestral medical scripts. Though he tried to dabble himself in the field, he was not much successful with his mediocre aptitude.
Ming Shin could see that the Boundless Saint possessed the maximum realm which this world could contain, He was stuck in the Emperor ninth realm peak for a long time. After ransacking some other sects and pill masters, he finally found a legendary pill in of the sect's ancestral halls.
There were three pills which were known as Boundary dan which can help to break the barrier of the world and ascend to a new Saint realm. Finally one day with all the various stolen treasures, he withstood the heavenly tribulation and was ready to ascend to the upper world.
But with the limited time he could stay in this world, his greed took over his impulse. In the net few days, he started travelling all around the world to take away any such legendary pills or precious treasures away with him.
While he was about to end this and ascend, he soon heard an amazing news that a beautiful women out of the world has appeared in Kanu country. He started chasing after her and soon was mesmerized by her grace.
Even in his wildest imaginations, he could not think of such a beautiful women. His Boundless sutra ran involuntarily and fought with her recklessly. Soon he found that, though the woman seemed to be previously fatally injured, she could still hold an advantage against him.
Feeling that he may lose his life any time, he started to use all the despicable means possible. Finally he was able to give her a disastrous blow, but in the process made her enraged and lost his life. Even his spirit was eroded that he had to run far away and hide in the forest.
Unfortunately, he still lost to Ming Shin. He now understood true evil and despicableness of the Boundless saint and cursed him in his mind. He wished he could kill a dozen more times for all the pain he caused to innumerable people.
'Though I could not see any information regarding that beautiful woman. What happened after that?' Ming Shin felt tired after indulging in the fragment for so long.
