"A storage ring with a capacity of forty-eight cubic meters! This is truly an eye-opener."
Huo Yuhao was shocked by the enormous space as soon as he entered with his spiritual power.
He originally thought that Yu Hongzhi's thirty-six cubic meters was already invincible, but there was actually a master among them!
Then, with great anticipation, Huo Yuhao began to take stock of Chen Wen's legacy.
"Ten thousand gold soul coins in cash."
"Blood ginseng, a hundred-year-old purple fungus, crystal flower, dragon blood grass, and a large piece of thousand-year-old whale glue!"
"Five Xuan Shui pills, one Xuanwu Divine Pill, and one Soul Ascension Pill."
"And several pills to restore soul power, replenish qi and blood, and heal injuries."
"Incredible!"
"A hundred Yu Hongzhis combined are not worth as much as one Chen Wen."
Huo Yuhao was truly dazzled by the dazzling array of treasures in the ring.
The Xuan Shui pills that he had been searching for were here in five pieces, as well as similar pills like the Soul Ascension Pill.
Not to mention the even more precious Xuanwu Divine Pill, a single Xuanwu Divine Pill fetched a record-breaking five million gold soul coins at auction.
That price could buy three level-eight soul tools or a soul bone of about forty thousand years.
The reason the Xuanwu Divine Pill is so expensive is because it works on Soul Douluos.
Even if a Soul Douluo consumes it, it can cleanse their marrow and enhance their potential, increasing their chances of reaching the Title Douluo level.
While Xuan Shui Pills are for those below level 30, and the Soul Ascension Pill has no requirements, most Soul Masters consume it after reaching level 30 to maximize its effects.
"This is a huge win!"
"No wonder those bloggers who played hit-and-run games in the Golden Age games of my past life loved to attack so aggressively."
Huo Yuhao was genuinely overjoyed.
His main purpose in coming to the Heavenly Soul Empire had been achieved immediately; he could finally improve his physical talent.
During this time, worried about not finding the Profound Water Pill, he had specifically bought a large number of human anatomy books, intending to combine them with the Profound Heaven Technique to deduce the human anatomy meridian diagram.
Then, using the meridian diagram, he would forcibly widen his meridians with the help of the Root Kingdom; he couldn't stand the damned cultivation speed.
Of course, he would continue to study the human anatomy meridian diagram
. Many of his ideas were inseparable from it.
Huo Yuhao double-checked all the drawers in the room, making sure he had taken all the valuables.
Finally, he nodded in satisfaction and prepared to leave.
His leg had just stepped over Chen Wen's headless corpse when he felt something was amiss.
Huo Yuhao lifted Chen Wen's body, then found his head on the ground and slowly put it back.
To prevent it from falling, he casually took out a handful of golden thread from his storage soul tool.
Using his medical skills, he quickly sewed the neck and head back together,
even thoughtfully tying a bow.
After finishing everything, Huo Yuhao stood before him and bowed.
"I'm sorry, sir, it turns out you were my angel investor."
"I misunderstood you. I'll definitely burn paper money for you sometime!"
Then, Huo Yuhao left openly through the main entrance; none of the courtesans, old women, or guards in the brothel stopped him.
In their eyes, Huo Yuhao was a regular customer, and the bloodstains on the rooftop were simply wine casually spilled by Chen Wen during his revelry.
About half an hour after Huo Yuhao left, screams erupted from the Ruyi Brothel, echoing throughout the entire East District.
They finally discovered that their master had died on their rooftop, his death extremely gruesome, and the murderer's methods extremely heinous.
This had nothing to do with Huo Yuhao anymore. Even if the City Lord's Mansion found a time-attribute Soul Master to rewind time at the scene,
they would only see a one-eyed masked man kill Chen Wen.

All Huo Yuhao wanted now was to return to the clinic and take the Profound Water Pill to improve his talent.
"Squeak~"
The familiar sound of the bedroom door on the second floor of the clinic rang out. After a busy day, Master Huo finally returned to his warm haven .
He didn't get into bed, but instead sat cross-legged on the floor.
He took out a deep blue pill from his storage ring, adorned with white patterns.
Just by taking it out, he could feel the air in the room become damp.
A peculiar medicinal fragrance filled the entire room, and Huo Yuhao's pores opened, craving the aroma.
He swallowed hard, then put the Profound Water Pill in his mouth, gently biting open the outer shell to let the cool liquid inside flow into his stomach.
He swallowed the outer shell as well.
Soon, a cool current began to flow through his body along his blood vessels.
It reached every part of his body through his blood vessels, then continued to spread until it permeated every cell.
Every cell was sending out excited signals, making Huo Yuhao feel as if he were in a cool pool, each drop of water caressing his tired body.
Soon after, Huo Yuhao's body began to exude a black, viscous substance.
This substance consisted of metabolic waste accumulated in his body, as well as various impurities blocking his meridians.
…
"Chirp~ Chirp,"
birds arrived as promised with the first rays of morning sunlight, singing loudly on the rafters of the clinic.
The misty earth was awakened by the song, and more and more people brought vitality back to the land.
Upon hearing the birds' calls, Huo Yuhao's eyelashes fluttered, and he slowly opened his eyes. What reached him even faster than the light was the foul-smelling grime on his body.
Looking at the unknown black clumps on his body, Huo Yuhao felt a little surprised.
"This is the legendary 'pores spewing feces'!"
"I've finally experienced a staple of fantasy."
Despite saying that, Huo Yuhao still opened the window and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
In the bathroom, Huo Yuhao clearly saw that his body was becoming increasingly white, and all the excess fat on his body had disappeared.
Muscles bulged on his arms, as if he had taken stanozolol (a muscle-building steroid).
"This is truly a case of nine dragons pulling a coffin."
"Bad news is about to spread throughout the Soul Master world."
Huo Yuhao chuckled self-deprecatingly. He knew in his heart that this level of pill had no side effects; otherwise, how could it be so sought after in the Douluo Continent?
It's the Sun Moon Empire that's seriously addicted to drugs; they'll take almost anything as long as it can boost their Soul Power.
Remember Xiao Hongchen, the once-proud genius in the original story? Because of drug use, his later years were bleak, his head became pointed, and he eventually became just another nobody.
This is the real bad news spreading through the Soul Master world.
Huo Yuhao sensed his Soul Power; he had reached a bottleneck, only needing one more Soul Ring to break through.
Besides that, his most important meridians had been greatly widened, and many disordered areas had been regulated.
He secretly estimated that taking two more Xuan Shui Pills should solve his physical talent problem.
Huo Yuhao walked to the window, looking towards the Star Dou Great Forest, a slight smile appearing on his lips, because his two major advantages were about to be activated.
After closing the window again, he casually picked up a white coat from the nearby clothes rack and put it on, beginning his day's work.
