Chapter 933: This Efficiency Is Extremely Good
Lord Jiu quickly answered, “This is the two-hundredth. However, this Lord Jiu’s hands are sore already.”
“Just two hundred…this is far from enough. Continue!”
Xiao Chen collected the Astral Banner, and Lord Jiu immediately got started. His beady eyes looked around and captured the locations of all the treasures. In the next instant, he found another target.
Lord Jiu leaped down and started moving his hands. In the blink of an eye, he dug out several hundred meters of an underground tunnel. His incredibly fast speed would make anyone who saw it sigh.
Even Xiao Chen had to admire it. The strengths of some people were truly beyond reach. This was a natural talent. Even a Martial Emperor would be flabbergasted.
The two worked impeccably with each other. In several of their exploits, Xiao Chen had not even had to make an appearance, moving secretly. They had collected two hundred of the Magic Treasures that had accompanied the Heavenly Phoenix.
Anyone who learned of this matter would be so startled, they would not be able to shut their mouths.
Lord Jiu’s natural ability was truly unique. As the two gained more, he became tired like a dog. However, he could not help but feel excited. Xiao Chen gave the spatial rings of all the people killed to him.
There was only one condition. All the divine materials in the spatial rings belonged to Xiao Chen; the rest did not matter.
Most of the grandmaster-level Martial Sages chased after the Heavenly Phoenix. Given that Xiao Chen comprehended a saber soul and his cultivation reached peak Medial Grade Martial Sage, no one was a match for him.
When dusk approached, there were still one hundred Magic Treasures that the two had not collected yet. However, Lord Jiu was honestly tired beyond all measure. After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Chen decided to stop.
After some refinement, these nine hundred Magic Treasures could become King Grade Secret Treasures. Such a harvest was already startlingly high.
--
On a desolate hill in the Immortal sect Remnant, all sorts of Magic Treasures floated around Xiao Chen. Every one of them gave off bright, dazzling light. With just one look, it was clear that they had several divine materials.
Xiao Chen had no problem using Magic Treasures directly. He had Magic Energy and thus could use them without any further processing. However, aside from the wolf-head sword, the rest of the Magic Treasures did not catch his attention.
Xiao Chen was not alone in this; none of these Magic Treasures would catch the attention of any of the grandmaster-level Martial Sages.
However, the number of Magic Treasures he had was flabbergasting. Nine hundred King Grade Secret Treasures were sufficient to fill the coffers of a sect.
On one side, Lord Jiu sat blissfully on a rock, taking out spatial ring after spatial ring and checking them. If there were any divine materials, he would toss those out.
A three-meter-tall pile of divine materials had already built up beside him, containing Black Patterned Gold, Profound Copper, Heavenly Gold Rock, and many others.
Strictly speaking, Black Astral Coins also had divine materials in them. However, these were just trace amounts, which Xiao Chen did not care about, so Lord Jiu benefited.
The old man’s beady eyes occasionally glanced at Xiao Chen, who was currently swallowing up the Magic Treasures. When he discovered that Xiao Chen was not paying attention, he sneakily ignored the divine materials in some of the spatial rings, embezzling them.
Hehe! This is not considered embezzling. This Lord Jiu worked half to death. I deserve this and should take more.
Just at this moment, a sharp, miserable shriek suddenly rang out in the distance.
Xiao Chen looked up and saw a scarlet light like that of the setting sun in the west dyeing the sky for hundreds of kilometers around. Someone had finally subdued the Heavenly Phoenix. Blood leaked out of its neck, making the sky look like it was sunset.
Too many people were fighting over the Heavenly Phoenix; the scene was extremely chaotic. Occasionally, someone went flying out. Only a few people could remain there.
Among them, naturally, Di Wuque was the most dazzling one!
Lord Jiu laughed loudly, “A bunch of fools. Fighting each other like that with nothing to show for it in the end, only getting blasted out.”
Since there was only one Heavenly Phoenix, only one person would be able to obtain it. Most of them knew that this would not end well for them. They just asked for a chance. However, how many could be that lucky in the world?
Right after the old man spoke, a scarlet light landed beside him, traveling extremely fast. Before Lord Jiu’s smile could fade, he gave a blood-curdling shriek.
Lord Jiu’s entire body got smashed into the ground. The pile of several tens of tons of divine materials collapsed, burying two people.
“Clatter!”
Two arms stretched out and pushed the divine materials aside. The Bloody Young Master Ye Chen dug his way out of the heavy pile. His complexion was pale as he coughed out blood; his hair was now completely red.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said, “Mountains and rivers always meet. Brother Ye, unexpectedly, we meet again so soon.”
Ye Chen was stunned. When he saw the several hundreds of Magic Treasures floating around Xiao Chen, he could not shut his eyes. He could not even reply to Xiao Chen.
After rubbing his eyes hard for a while, Ye Chen determined that he was not hallucinating. He said with some disbelief, “You…how did you do it?! This is preposterous!”
“Preposterous my foot! Your ass is on Lord Jiu’s head. Move, fast! This Lord Jiu is just greedy for some divine materials. There is no need to crush me to death!”
Cursing came from below. Ye Chen stood up, appearing very embarrassed. Then, he pulled out the nearly prostrate Lord Jiu.
After taking in Lord Jiu’s miserable appearance, the normally proud and arrogant Ye Chen could not help the corners of his lips twitching a few times. Then he apologized effusively.
After the two had taken a short rest, Xiao Chen asked out of curiosity, “Who sent you flying? Based on your appearance, you are severely injured. Which great grandmaster-level Martial Sage attacked you?”
When Ye Chen heard this question, he coughed embarrassedly and replied in a soft voice, “A girl sent me flying. I was just one step shy of snatching the Heavenly Phoenix Fan. However, a girl appeared beside Di Wuque all of a sudden and sent me flying with a palm strike.”
As Ye Chen spoke, he felt very dissatisfied. No one would be happy at getting sent flying by a sneak attack with a palm strike.
The one who attacked was Tian Youxi, the silent girl who always accompanied Di Wuque and would make a move at the critical moment.
When Xiao Chen heard Ye Chen’s account, he knew who had attacked him. If there were no surprises, the Heavenly Phoenix Fan would fall into Di Wuque’s hand.
--
The blood of the Heavenly Phoenix dyed the sky red for hundreds of kilometers around, lingering for a long time like a sunset. It was very shocking to see in the clear sky.
The feathers of the dazzling, golden-bright Heavenly Phoenix were gathered into a magnificent fan with flames leaping around. The cry of the Heavenly Phoenix was distinctly audible.
This sound contained a Holy Might, putting a formless pressure on others.
As Di Wuque held the Heavenly Phoenix Fan, a smile appeared on his face. He casually fiddled with the fan as his hand moved about.
An indistinct Deities’ Nation appeared behind Di Wuque. Sounds of praise came from the Deities’ Nation, turning into the power of faith and pouring into his body.
A golden halo appeared behind Di Wuque, making him look like a deity descending with supreme might.
“Congratulations, Divine Son. This fan definitely has at least a thousand types of divine materials in it. There is even the Holy Spirit of a Heavenly Phoenix refined into it. After further refining it in the future, it can definitely grow into an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure.”
One of the thirteen Seekers stepped forward and lauded the Secret Treasure.
Standing at the side, the Heavenly Music Sect’s Xia Dongyang and the Frost Moon Palace’s Xiao Qinghan stared at the golden-bright Heavenly Phoenix Fan with avid expressions.
Unfortunately, the two had been too slow. In the end, Di Wuque obtained this Heavenly Phoenix Fan.
Under the red sky, several grandmaster-level Martial Sages and loose cultivators eyed the Heavenly Phoenix Fan fervently. However, they were all very rational and did not make a move on Di Wuque.
If another person had snatched this Heavenly Phoenix Fan, the chaotic scene would not have settled down so quickly.
Xiao Qinghan and Xia Dongyang came to Di Wuque’s side and performed cupped-fist salutes. “Congratulations, Divine Son, on obtaining the Heavenly Phoenix Fan.”
Di Wuque looked extraordinary with his head of white hair. He gently closed the Heavenly Phoenix Fan and then tossed it to Xia Dongyang. “Brother Xia, take this Heavenly Phoenix Fan as a greeting gift for agreeing to participate in my Heroes’ Convention.”
Xia Dongyang was slightly stunned. He had not expected Di Wuque to be so generous. With a quick toss, Di Wuque simply gave away the Heavenly Phoenix Fan that he just obtained.
This was an Immortal sect’s peak Magic Treasure. After refining it slightly and using it as one’s life Secret Treasure, it could become an Emperor Grade Secret Treasure in the future.
Xia Dongyang showed an expression of joy when he accepted this fan. He said sincerely, “Divine Son truly lives up to his name as a proud son of heaven in this age, the leader of our generation. In the Heroes’ Convention two years hence, Dongyang will definitely bring my Heavenly Music Sect’s disciples to come and show support.”
Xiao Qinghan felt a somewhat sour feeling in his heart. Although Di Wuque had invited him, he did not agree on the spot. Now, he could not help but regret his hesitation.
Divine Son, although there are many palaces in this inner area, it will not be easy to find something like the Heavenly Phoenix Fan. How can you just give it away? the leader of the Keepers of Light asked in a voice projection to Di Wuque.
It does not matter. These are all external items. As long as the Heroes’ Convention is successful, I will gain the Luck of the entire Kunlun Realm. At that time, I will be able to accomplish the ambition of our ancestors without having to put in much effort. Compared to this, the Heavenly Phoenix Fan is nothing, Di Wuque replied through a voice projection.
With a flip of his hand, Di Wuque took out a piece of ten-thousand-year-old Profound Copper. Then he proffered it politely to Xiao Qinghan, saying, “Brother Xiao, this piece of ten-thousand-year-old Profound Copper is equal to fifty tons of ordinary Profound Copper. Whether you agree to my invitation or not, this is a greeting gift for you.”
Xiao Qinghan thought to himself, Di Wuque’s move is truly excellent.
Xiao Qinghan felt very competitive, wanting to take the lead alone in this great age. However, from the looks of today, most of the major factions seemed to be standing on Di Wuque’s side.
If Xiao Qinghan did not participate in the Heroes’ Convention and leave his name on the Hero Monument, he would not be able to stand against these major factions.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Qinghan accepted the ten-thousand-year-old Profound Copper and smiled. “Divine Son is too courteous. If Qingyan still does not agree, it would be too unbecoming. Two years from now, I will bring the Frost Moon Palace disciples to support the Heroes’ Convention.”
With one Magic Treasure, Di Wuque easily subdued the two outstanding talents of the Primal Chaos Domain. His means were rather extraordinary.
This development caused the several older-generation grandmaster-level Martial Sages in the vicinity to raise their eyebrows in surprise. Such a person would have difficulty remaining low in this age.
Di Wuque glanced at several people dressed in Buddhist robes to the north. Then he warned, “Brother Dongyang, be careful later. Those Immortal Cultivators from the Penglai Sea might make a move against you.”
Xia Dongyang smiled and replied, “Many thanks for Divine Son’s reminder. I am confident. These people are not easy to deal with. However, this is not the Penglai Sea, and they will not be able to do anything.”
“In that case, I will not say anything more. Let’s go to the heavenly palace. I wonder if any great grandmaster-level Martial Sages have managed to open the doors.”
Di Wuque and his group stopped chatting. Each of them used a Secret Treasure to protect themself, easily breaking the restrictions in their way as they flew to the nine heavenly palaces at the top of the mountain.
When the others saw this, they each picked a heavenly palace and flew over as well.
----
On a certain hill, Ye Chen sat cross-legged and circulated his energies to recover from his injuries. Lord Jiu continued to tidy the divine materials in the spatial rings. Xiao Chen resumed his consumption of Magic Treasures to cultivate the first layer of the Azure Dragon Body Nourishing Art.
