Jade Container

"Damn it!" Yang Guang started to give up. After exhausting half of his strength, the Stone Rabbit is still flatly lied on the ground. Unknown to him where did the thought come from, Yang Guang used his hand to get a tight grip on the Stone Rabbit's body.

"Whoosh!" Yang Guang throws the Stone Rabbit onto the rock about the height to his waist. That exchange stunned the rabbit, as it exposed the weak belly part up to the sky.

"My chance is here! Take this strike!" Yang Guang stabs his short sword at the Stone Rabbit as it quickly bleeds. After struggling for a while, it finally stops moving frantically.

He immediately took a rest sitting down beside the Stone Rabbit's body.

Unknown to him, a suction came from the jade container inside his wrist pocket. Although blocked by the layer of cloth between the jade container and the fresh blood, it did not stop the jade container from absorbing all the blood oozing out from the corpse.

As he was already tired from fighting against the Stone Rabbit, Yang Guang decided to end the hunt tonight. Not realizing that the Stone Rabbit already had it blood dried by the jade container.

The moment Yang Guang made a slit at the neck, he finally noticed that the blood was missing from the Stone Rabbit's corpse. Curious with what's happening here, Yang Guang checked each part of the body as he keeps on with the processing.

Very soon, he completes the processing. The stone fur had to be discarded as it was unusable. As for the internal organs and bones, they can be both used as fertilizers or food.

Because there was no other way to preserve the food, Yang Guang placed the four legs inside a pot to be smoked.

Lastly, he minced the remaining meaty part and marinated it with some rock salt as seasoning. By using a section of bamboo as a container, Yang Guang stored 80% of the minced meat inside. The remaining 20% of minced meat turned into a few pieces of meat cakes to be eaten the next morning.

Walking to his bed as he removes his clothing, Yang Guang finally noticed something different.

When he left the house with the jade container, it was empty. But at this moment, there's something inside rolling as he moves the jade container.

Once again, his curiosity made him turned the jade container upside down. A red pill with dense Soul Qi lands onto his palm. From his experience absorbing Soul Jade to cultivates, it was around 50% in terms of purity.

If he were to use this pill to cultivates, every two red pills could bring him the effectiveness of a Soul Jade, which is darn expensive for him to use at the moment.

"The pill... Jade container with a stench of blood... The Stone Rabbit without blood..."

!!!

"Don't tell me..." Yang Guang's thoughts clouded him for the entire night until the next morning. It was a sleepless night for a pauper like him as if he found out a chest of gold but worried that it would be noticed by his neighbors.

Next morning...

Yang Guang carries two buckets of water from the nearby river and begins to water the Azure Jade Grass. Next, Yang Guang brings himself into the Tianyu City again, along with the section of bamboo he used to keep the minced meat from Stone Rabbit.

The Mantou Stall purchased whatever he got with a Soul Jade and four meat buns. And at the same time, the owner of the Mantou Stall asked Yang Guang to deliver two bamboo sections per day to his stall.

"Xiao Guang... Make sure you keep the quality like the one you sent here today. Uncle will buy them for a Soul Jade each." the owner of the Mantou Stall added.

"I will, uncle Mang," Yang Guang replied and left the shopping street in a hurry. As it cost him half of his energy to kill one Stone Rabbit, it would be best for him to make his way to Thousand Boar Forest immediately.

But before that, Yang Guang returned to his broken hut. The two remaining meat bun is placed inside a bamboo woven basket. After taking a quick nap for an hour, he checked the greenhouse once more before going to the forest.

"This time, I'll make sure to see what will happen to the jade container after I kill the Stone Rabbit!" Yang Guang entered the forest and quickly found his target.

A pack of six Stone Rabbits!

With the sword in his hand, Yang Guang struck one of the rabbits a few strikes so it'll stop moving to protect itself. Next, he tried to stomp another rabbit using his feet, but it was a failure. With only one of the Stone Rabbit remains at this spot, Yang Guang repeats the killing procedure.

Grab the Stone Rabbit!

With all his strength, slams the rabbit on a nearby tree, and deliver a killing strike!

Success!

"Yes! Let's see what the jade container is going to do!" Yang Guang placed the container closer to where to corpse is and waited for a miracle to happen.

Although it wasn't too visible, the blood flowing out from the Stone Rabbit is indeed evaporating and flowing into the jade container slowly. It stops after the blood within the Stone Rabbit is all extracted.

He shakes the jade container once the process stops, but got no feedback at all. There were no pills inside. Turning the jade container upside down gave him nothing at all.

"One more time!" Since he needs two of the rabbits to be provided to Uncle Mang tomorrow morning, it won't hurt for him to look for another Stone Rabbit before he returns.

Unfortunately, the second Stone Rabbit did not appear at all. Instead, a different beast came to meet him inside this Thousand Boar Forest.

"Oink!" a beast about 1-meter height and 1.5-meter length with a tail sweeping from left to right greets Yang Guang.

"Not good! How can I be so unlucky!" Yang Guang becomes defensive with the short sword in hand. Against a beast with the cultivation strength similar to himself, this fight would be the most difficult one for him so far!

"Bring it on! Scarlet Eye Boar!"
