Chapter 1320: War Drum Fragments

After the torrent of sound waves completely disappeared, Zhang Xuan returned carefully.

At this time, the ruins of the ancient battlefield were in a mess, and the chaotic power within hundreds of thousands of miles had been cleared away.

He saw the broken body of the three-headed star beast turn into star mother iron.

This is a seventh-level spiritual ore, extremely rare in the ruins of ancient battlefields, and was born from the principles of chaos.

The star mother iron emits a soft light, and its surface is covered with mysterious patterns. Each piece weighs tens of thousands of pounds.

"Although the seventh-level star mother iron is not a five-element spiritual ore, it is much more precious than the Taixu Star God Ore."

Zhang Xuan was overjoyed and put the three pieces of star mother iron into his storage ring.

The star beast that was put into the giant divine coffin was slowly digested by the second-level divine coffin.

After refining this star beast, not only was the damage to the second-level divine coffin completely restored, but its entire body also turned red gold in color, becoming even more powerful than before.

The star mother iron produced by the fall of the three star beasts weighed a total of 100,000 kilograms, which was a rich harvest.

However, what interested Henry Zhang even more was the mysterious drum sounds deep in the ruins of the ancient battlefield.

"The sound of the drum can trigger such a powerful torrent of sound waves. It must be an extraordinary weapon."

He flew in the direction of the sound waves, carefully avoiding various hidden dangers along the way.

Tens of thousands of miles away, he found a fragment of a war drum.

The fragments of the war drum lay quietly in the ruins, their surface covered with traces of time, yet still exuding a majestic aura.

Zhang Xuan took it in his hand, and saw that the fragments were covered with complex runes, which were obscure and difficult to understand, but they were similar to the runes of the immortal weapons he saw in the Luocha Immortal Cauldron.

He speculated that this piece of war drum fragment should be Xuantian's treasure. Although it was only a fragment, it was extremely precious to him.

He once picked up a piece of the immortal sword fragment in the Chaoxi Sea area of ​​the Great Wilderness Realm.

However, the power of the magic sword fragment is no longer there.

The runes on this piece of war drum fragment are clear and it can still exert some power, as proved by the killing of the three-headed star beast just now.

Zhang Xuan originally thought that it was a great fortune to obtain a dragon bone warship, but he did not expect to obtain the fragments of the Xuantian treasure. He was extremely surprised.

However, he was seriously injured at this time.

There were cracks on the divine veins and the energy was exhausted.

"The most urgent task is to return safely from the ruins of the ancient battlefield."

This expedition made him realize that it was too dangerous to explore the ruins of the ancient battlefield with his current level of cultivation.

If he hadn't accidentally activated the fragments of the war drum, he would have probably been killed by these star beasts.

He decided to return to his base on the ancient star battlefield and not risk exploring these dangerous places for the time being.

After all, he had the maps of the Eight Wilderness Ancient Roads and the Nine Sacred Ancient Roads. As long as he proceeded steadily, his realm would naturally improve step by step. There was no need to take risks easily.

After going through untold hardships and spending several months, Zhang Xuan finally escaped from the ruins of the ancient battlefield and returned to the stronghold.

At this time, he was in a miserable state, his clothes were torn, his body was covered with scars, and he was almost unable to move.

He came to Fairy Lingchen, who was very surprised to see him like this, and her eyes were full of concern.

Zhang Xuan simply explained that he was in danger in the ruins of the ancient battlefield, and then exchanged three pieces of Taixu Qingshen spiritual objects for a large number of fifth-level pills.

After getting the elixir, Zhang Xuan immediately went into seclusion, focusing on repairing his injuries and restoring his cultivation.

There is no time for practice, and the day to collect salary once a year has quietly arrived.

Zhang Xuan mixed in with the seven people and once again boarded the Shenzhou and headed towards the stronghold of the Breaking World Army.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion when exchanging elixirs from Fairy Lingchen, he had to pretend to be collecting his salary as usual.

After arriving at the stronghold, a Divine Transformation cultivator came to receive Zhang Xuan.

The Divine Transformation cultivator carefully checked Zhang Xuan's Dragon Spine Order, and then said respectfully: "Senior, your salary for this year has been taken away by the Great Dao Chijin Division to repay your debt of 18,000 Yuanshi-level top-grade spirit stones. Can you see if there is any problem?"

Henry Zhang looked calm and shook his head gently: "No problem."

The Divine Transformation Cultivator continued, "When I checked your Dragon Spine Order just now, I found that you did not gain anything in the Ancient Star Battlefield, so you do not need to hand over your share to the Dragon Spine Palace."

Henry Zhang nodded, his tone casual: “I know.”

"Then I wonder if you have anything else to say?"

Zhang Xuan naturally didn't want to leave too early, fearing that he would arouse others' suspicion, so he asked for no apparent reason, "How long have you been in this Boundary Breaking Army?"

The Divine Transformation cultivator replied respectfully: "More than two hundred years."

Henry Zhang asked again: "Do you have any brothers or sisters?"

The Divine Transformation cultivator was slightly stunned when he heard this, and said, "Senior, you have already asked this question last year."

Henry Zhang showed an expression of sudden enlightenment: "What? It was you who received me last year?"

"Yes, senior." The Divine Transformation cultivator responded.

Henry Zhang looked very old, shook his head and sighed, "When people get older, they tend to forget a lot of things. I'm also a little face-blind, sorry."

The Spiritualization cultivator smiled bitterly in his heart. The man in front of him was only two hundred years old, and he was a thousand years older than him. However, the other person was a Void Body cultivator, and his realm was higher than his, so he could only deal with him patiently.

Zhang Xuan was a little embarrassed when he saw the slightly impatient look on the Divine Transformation cultivator's face, but he continued to ask: "If I want to exchange some useful things with your Boundary Breaking Army, what channel should I go through?"

The Divine Transformation Monk replied calmly, "There is no channel."

"Then how do you exchange the necessary cultivation resources?"

The Divine Transformation cultivator explained, "Senior, we belong to the Boundary Breaking Army. We can exchange the cultivation resources we need through the internal battle merit system of the Boundary Breaking Army. However, the cultivation resources of the Boundary Breaking Army are only open to internal members. Contributions obtained outside the army cannot enter the battle merit system, and naturally we cannot trade the cultivation resources within the army."

Zhang Xuan suddenly realized: "I see, then in addition to trading cultivation resources at the Boundary Breaking Army base, what should I do if I want to buy other resources?"

The monk patiently replied, "Our base is too small to have a market. However, there is a larger base of the Boundary Breaking Army billions of miles away from here. There is a small market there. There is also a larger market at the Demon Suppression Fortress where we can trade."

When Zhang Xuan heard this, he was secretly shocked. The nearest trading market was billions of miles away, and the Demon-Suppressing Fortress was even more out of reach.

Zhang Xuan then took the opportunity to inquire about the recent battle situation of the Breaking World Army.

"I noticed that there are many disabled monks of the Realm Breaking Army outside. Is the war between the Dragon Spine Divine Realm and the Eight Star Palaces becoming more frequent?"

Upon hearing this, the Divine Transformation cultivator looked gloomy, nodded and sighed, "Yes, this is no secret. Now that the Boundary Breaking Army is constantly advancing, it has occupied some buffer zones between the Dragon Spine Divine Realm and the Eight Star Palaces, which naturally triggered a fierce counterattack from the Eight Star Palaces. The Boundary Breaking Army has suffered heavy casualties."

Henry Zhang asked: "Why does the Boundary Breaking Army want to occupy these buffer zones now?"

The Divine Transformation cultivator shook his head helplessly: "This is a decision made by the upper echelons, and I don't know the reason."
