"HP... HP... HP?"
Remembering that I have to recover my HP, I remembered that I got the storage ring of the man I killed. I remember, when building a connection with a storage ring; one needs to drip his blood on the ring and a connection will be established in the person's mind. And if someone wants to steal other's storage ring and obtain all the things inside in it, then there are two ways.
First is that the person who owns the ring should be killed. When that person dies, the connection is broken. And the new owner can establish connection when he drips his blood on the ring.
Second is that the storage ring must be destroyed. When the storage ring is destroyed, all the contents in ring will fall out of it.
But there are two types of storage rings, first type is Earthly Storage ring and second type is Heavenly storage ring.
Earthly storage rings are made of material with affinity to 'space element' in it. These materials have different affinity, which means that depending on the Refiner's skill and the material selected; a storage ring can be built with a limited storage space. So, if a refiner has good skills and if he selects a good material, he can build a storage ring with a large space.
While, Heavenly Storage ring are only seen on legendary cultivators who have transcended the Royalty realm. Although, it is said that the Heavenly Storage ring is also made with material having 'space affinity' but while its building, the refiner uses 'Space law'. Which means the space inside a storage ring has exceeded the limits of Earthly storage rings.
Earthly storage ring has storage limit of about 1000 cubic meter or if a Weapon Refiner has excellent skills then it can also reach about 10,000 cubic meters. So, it means the Heavenly storage ring has more than 10,000 cubic meters of space. And the Heavenly storage ring has been connected to the 'space law' due to which the storage can exceed infinitely.
If an Earthly storage ring is destroyed then the contents will fall out, but if a Heavenly storage ring is destroyed then the contents will get lost in space tunnel and will forever drift in it. That means, if someone kills or steals the Heavenly storage from the owner, and if the owner does not erase the connection; then the other person cannot obtain the contents inside the rings. It is like
'Since you killed me for personal revenge or wanting to steal my treasures, then fuck you; I will not let you get those and anyhow those treasures will get eroded in the space channel, so anyhow so long loser--. See you in hell'
Plus, it is said that to use heavenly storage ring, cultivator who can use are only those who has developed 'Divine Sense Radar'.
All these things I have read in the Leon clan Library, as I wanted to learn this world's knowledge. I don't know what this 'Divine sense Radar' is but I can be sure those are something similar to the power to scan long distances and the user can even watch an ant crawling which many novels introduce with different names. And the 'Divine sense Radar' is said to be developed when reaching pinnacle of the cultivation.
(well like hell am I going to believe that, Pinnacle of cultivation, my ass. I have read so many novels that at the at the end of a novel or an arc, there will be new cultivations. So, if the author feels that he cannot continue, then he will leave us hanging with some half-ass ending)
I can be sure that the storage ring right now in front of is Earthly Storage ring. I thought of breaking the ring but quit that idea as it will make some noise alarms any guard which may expose my location. And I cannot hurt myself because, if I do that then my HP might reach zero and I will die.
(Sarcastic) Luckily, I am injured and there are some scratches and little blood can be squeezed. So, somehow, I got that little blood and a connection was formed with the storage ring.
Now, I can easily access the contents of the ring.
As I looked into the ring, I observed that the ring is about half cubic meter. Actually, my ring was about 1 cubic meter which was gifted to me by my mother. Compared to it, I feel this ring is not so big. If I remember correctly, it was said that my parent's storage ring has about 3 to 4 cubic meters of space.
(Well anyway, I should recover fast.)
Though the space is small, there are lot of things in this ring. Like pills for cultivation, healing, a sword, a shield and a leather armor. There is also money, animal parts, animal skin and human parts...human parts?... what the...
As I was having a quick scan, I was shocked and almost threw away the ring. I saw that there were human parts like hands, legs, even eyeballs are stored in some glass containers.
Although, I agree that I just killed someone and I still feel guilty about that but this is too much. Is what I am thinking true? Is he a cannibal or practice corpse cultivation or demon cultivation or has some kind of fetish??
When I continue to think about this matter, my body shuddered.
If what I think is true then this man was not a good guy. As I think more about it, I feel less guilty and kind of feel relaxed. As I was lost in thought, system notification woke me up
'ding'
'-1 HP'
'Host current Hp=6'
As soon I saw this, I immediately took out the bottle containing the healing pill and opened the lid and saw that there were only 2 pills.
"Damn bastard" I inwardly cursed the man I killed, because the man was injured and it seems that to recover fast that bastard almost swallowed all the healing pills. And left 2 pills as backup.
Although I wanted to curse the guy more, I swallowed only one pill to see how much HP I can recover and to save the last pill for backup.
'ding'
'+100 Hp'
'System removing the suppression'
***Warning suppression has been removed***
'host will lose 1 HP after 10 minutes'
'host has HP=106. Host has 17 hours and 10 minutes left, when HP reaches zero, host will die. System cannot help the host again'
'The combination of poisons present inside the host has produced a debuff. Every 10 minutes, host will lose 1 HP.'
