Chapter 661 - Treasures Everywhere, the Sycamore Divine Fruit, Have You Lost Your Mind
With the blessings of the Heavenly Dao, an endless surge of spiritual qi poured in towards the Godly Phoenix as she started to form her Emperor’s Core. The rate she was absorbing the spiritual qi was as fast as when Chu Kuangren was refining the Chaotic qi in the Slumbering Emperor Coffin. Eventually, the Godly Phoenix managed to produce a Superb-grade Emperor’s Core!
A Superb-grade Emperor’s Core and a Prominent-quality Dao!
Her Emperor’s Foundation was no inferior to Chu Kuangren’s Prominent-grade Emperor’s Core and Epic-quality Dao. Only a divine beast could achieve such an incredible feat.
With the Godly Phoenix becoming an Emperor, a magnificent amount of spiritual qi seethed out in the form of a mist and enveloped several thousand kilometers radius of land within the Black Heaven Sect.
Various sorts of treasures started to form within the mist.
This included Superb-grade soul emblems, spiritual marrows, gemstone veins, and many more.
“D*mn, well I’ll be. The Godly Phoenix’s affirmation of Dao is truly extraordinary.”
“So many treasures are appearing all at once! Tsk, this is just unheard of. Quick, get the others to collect them.”
“All hail the mighty Godly Phoenix!!”
Since the Godly Phoenix was a beast of prosperity that possessed a great fortune, her phoenix qi naturally affected her residence by transforming it into a place of great talent. Hence, the Heavenly Dao rejoicing the Godly Phoenix’s affirmation of her Dao had sprouted countless items and treasures all over the land.
Even Chu Kuangren was amazed as he watched the scene unfold.
He knew.
He knew that the Godly Phoenix affirming her Dao was not the only reason for these conjurations and occurrences to happen. The Heavenly Dao’s restoration also played a part in this.
If the Heavenly Dao was not fully restored, such conjurations and occurrences would not appear even if the Godly Phoenix affirmed her Dao dozens of times.
“Huh, that’s…”
Chu Kuangren suddenly sensed the aura of powerful energy erupting within the Black Heaven Sect’s territory.
It was the aura of a certain treasure.
His figure disappeared in a flash and arrived at a mountain peak, where a gigantic Sycamore tree had grown.
A flame-colored fruit the size of a fist that had a crystal-like appearance was hanging from the tree.
The bursts of fruity aroma coming from it could make anyone’s mouth water.
“The Sycamore has even borne fruit? Wait, this is one of the Ten Great Spirit Fruits, the Divine Sycamore Fruit!”
The Ten Great Spirit Fruits are the ten most highly sought-after spirit fruits in the Firmament Star ever since ancient times. Each of the ten is created by nature itself and possesses tremendous effects once consumed. The White Spiritual Divine Fruit that Chu Kuangren obtained was one of them.
Now, one of the Ten Great Spirit Fruits had appeared before him for the second time, but it was the Divine Sycamore Fruit!
“I can’t believe the Godly Phoenix affirming her Dao would produce a spirit fruit like this. Then again, it seems like it’ll take some time before this fruit ripens.”
“Well, might as well lend it a hand then.”
Chu Kuangren took out a soul emblem. After placing it in a specific location, dense surges of spiritual qi started to appear and head towards the Sycamore Divine Fruit.
This was a type of Spiritual Qi Gathering Formation.
Its function was to gather spiritual qi from the surroundings rapidly.
With the help of the formation, the Sycamore Divine Fruit started to ripen quicker, and an extraordinary surge of spirit fruit fluctuation spread everywhere.
The Godly Phoenix affirming her Dao had already attracted the attention of the Emperors stationed in the Firmament Star, so the Sycamore Divine Fruit’s appearance made some of them even more jealous.
“Isn’t this new Emperor a little too lucky? As if being the master of a Godly Phoenix is not enough, look at all these treasures that have appeared because the divine beasts became an Emperor.”
“Wherever the Godly Phoenix resides will be transformed into a land with great talents. It seems like that’s a fact not to be taken lightly. The Sycamore Divine Fruit is one of the Ten Great Spirit Fruits specifically used to increase one’s cultivation level. One of these is equivalent to a hundred Emperor-grade soul emblems! That’s enough to turn a Novice Initial Emperor into an Expert Initial Emperor.”
“Sigh. If only a treasure like this appeared in my territory.”
“How can a new Emperor possess such a treasure?”
Some of the other Emperors could no longer hold back their desire for the Sycamore Divine Fruit. If that spirit fruit were to appear in someone else’s territory, they would not do anything risky even if they were jealous.
However, Chu Kuangren was only just a new Emperor. In the eyes of the other older Emperors, a young new Emperor like him was basically nothing.
“This won’t do. The Sycamore Divine Fruit will be of great use to me. I can’t let this chance slip by.” One of the Emperors gritted his teeth, turned into a ray of light, and disappeared into thin air. Soon, he arrived above the Black Heaven Sect’s territory.
At the mountain peak where the Sycamore Divine Fruit was.
A touch of surprise flashed across Chu Kuangren’s eyes as he sensed the presence of another Emperor. He turned to look, only to see it was an Emperor in white robes and with a fan in his hand. He looked elegant, akin to a dignified scholar.
Yet, the moment he laid his eyes upon the Sycamore Divine Fruit, there was no way he could hide that greed in his eyes from Chu Kuangren’s eyes.
“I knew it. There’s no way they will sit still when the Sycamore Divine Fruit appears. On the bright side, why don’t I make an example out of these guys?”
Chu Kuangren mumbled.
He fully understood that as a new Emperor, he was not that well-known among the older Emperors. That was why people would come to provoke him at any time.
Jian Feng, Bei Ming Xuanse, and this person standing before him…
Turning the situation around would be simple.
All he needed to do was to display his strength!
“Chu Kuangren, I’m willing to trade an Emperor-grade soul emblem with your Sycamore Divine Fruit. How about that?”
The elegant-looking Emperor took out an Emperor-grade soul emblem and chuckled.
“Have you lost your mind?”
Chu Kuangren shot him a glare and replied bluntly.
No matter how unwise he was, he knew that the Sycamore Divine Fruit was worth more than a mere Emperor-grade soul emblem.
“Brother Chu, it’s fine if you don’t want to trade, but why the rudeness? Do you want to sour our relationship?” The elegant-looking Emperor asked with a grim expression.
“Oh, it’s nothing, I just think it’s very funny that you want to trade my Sycamore Divine Fruit with a single Emperor-grade soul emblem. This is no different from thievery, yet you have the audacity to talk about souring our relationship?” Chu Kuangren sneered.
“You…”
“Haha, Brother Chu is right. This guy is really shameless.” At this time, a sturdy laugh rang out.
An Emperor with a hulking figure walked towards them.
The person approaching had a wild and immensely strong aura akin to a wild beast.
Through his Eye of Revelation, Chu Kuangren learned that the Emperor before him was from a tribe of wild beasts — the Berserk Bear Tribe.
“What are you implying, Xiong Huang (TN: 熊狂 translates literally to “crazed bear”)?”
The elegant-looking Emperor’s expression darkened.
“What do you mean? Isn’t it obvious enough?”
Great Emperor Xiong Huang sneered. After that, he took out a piece of golden armor and said, “Brother Chu, here’s an Emperor Weapon I’m offering to trade for the Sycamore Divine Fruit. What do you say?”
Surges of Daoist patterns were swirling around that armor. It was a defensive Emperor Weapon.
As a Berserk Bear himself, the species of wild beast that Great Emperor Xiong Huang belonged specialized in defense, so he had no use for that Emperor Weapon.
That was why he wanted to trade it with Chu Kuangren.
Unfortunately, Chu Kuangren immediately looked away after taking a glance at it. With his Immortal Body ability, defensive Emperor Weapons would not be of much use to him.
Besides, that Emperor Weapon was not valuable enough to trade for the Sycamore Divine Fruit.
“Nope, I’m not interested.”
“Brother Chu, I’m a straightforward person, so I’ll be frank with you. I’m trading the Sycamore Divine Fruit with you today, whether you like it or not!”
Great Emperor Xiong Huang grinned.
“Well, let’s not waste any more time then. Come.”
Chu Kuangren’s Descendant Self Sword shot out from its sheath. As soon as it landed in his hand, he raised his sword and slashed forth, tearing a rift open in the void.
Then, he walked into the void.
The elegant-looking Emperor and Great Emperor Xiong Huang followed him.
Countless strands of Emperor Thought soon came from all directions and peered into the void to watch the battle that was about to start between the new Emperor and the two veteran Emperors.
Although Chu Kuangren had displayed his strength at the Great Frost Dragon Mountain, he did not use his full power against his opponent that time.
Hence, the Emperors wanted to find out. What was the limit of this new Emperor’s strength?
