Once again, they came to the Hidden Hundred~Million#^^^Small!said, Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingshi began flipping through the contents related to the Ancestral Spirit Realm.
Soon, Zhang Ruochen found an important piece of information, and after reading it, a smile appeared on his face, “So that’s it.”
“You found it?”
Mu Lingshi walked over and picked up the book in Zhang Ruochen’s hands, and her eyes lit up when she saw a paragraph on it, “Ice and Fire Phoenix.”
The Ice and Fire Phoenix was a great saint of the Ancestral Spirit Realm, and legend had it that it had mastered the power of the “Extreme Yin Underworld Ice Power” and the “Pure Destruction Divine Flame”, and its cultivation was infinitely close to that of a god.
After its death, it was the God of the Ancestral Spirit Realm that buried it in the Phoenix Nest with his own hands.
Only a being with the bloodline of an Ice Phoenix or Fire Phoenix could find the location of the Phoenix Nest and open it. Otherwise, the Phoenix Nest would not come out even if it was destroyed along with the Ancestral Spirit Realm.
“What the Moon God is referring to should be it. If you go to the Ancestral Spirit Realm, there is a very small chance that you will receive the inheritance of a Phoenix Great Saint. However, there is a possibility that you will pay the price of your life.”Zhang Ruochen said.
Mu Lingshi hugged the book tightly, and in her eyes, a determined look appeared as she said, “There’s no need to persuade me any further, Ancestral Spirit Realm, I am compelled to go.”
In fact, there was another sentence that Mu Lingshi didn’t say, secretly saying in her heart, “Zhang Ruochen, I have to keep up with you no matter what, or else one day, you’ll still have a young body while I’m already old, then what qualifications do I have to stay by your side?”
“You have the power to make up your own mind for yourself, I won’t force you.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t advise any further, and with his hands behind his back, he walked out of the Hidden Hundred~Million#^^Small!said.
Wu Hao stood outside the Hidden Hundred~Wan#^^^Small!Say’s outside, his long hanging down on both sides of his cheeks, saw Zhang Ruochen walk out from inside the gate and said, “Brother Zhang, after hearing that you came to Hidden Hundred~Million#^^^Small!Said, I then specially rushed here to look for you.”
“What’s the matter with Boundary Son?”Zhang Ruochen asked.
Just then, Mu Lingshi also walked out from inside and stood beside Zhang Ruochen.
Wu Hao glanced towards Mu Lingshi without any change in expression and said to Zhang Ruochen again, “The World Treasure Vault of the Broad Cold Realm has been opened, and as the Realm Sons and Divine Ambassadors of the Saints’ Level Merit Battle, we are qualified to enter the Treasure Vault in advance and pick three treasures at will.”
The Merit War, to the Guanghan Realm, was a major event of life and death, and opening the World Treasure Vault could be said to be a rather normal thing to do.
After all, if the strength of the participants in the battle could be raised by one point, the Guanghan Realm would have one more chance to win.
The World Treasure Vault was a collection of all the resources held by the Great Saints, all of which were stored in the Tongyi Sacred Realm.
After Zhang Ruochen and Wu Hao entered the World Treasure Vault, even with the knowledge the two of them had, they were stunned by the precious treasures in front of them.
Just the Ten Thousand Lines Sacred Artifacts alone, Zhang Ruochen saw over a thousand of them, both battle armaments and armours, and every one of them, when placed in a great world, was a supreme treasure.
“A mid-grade Saint Pill, the Golden Crow Pill. This is something that, according to legend, even Saint King level figures are incomparably eager to obtain.”
The Charge Spirit Sacred Pill that Zhang Ruochen had refined was also at the level of a mid-grade Sacred Pill, but compared to the Golden Crow Pill, it was far inferior.
In the Celestial Court Realm, one Golden Crow Dan could be exchanged for dozens of Charge Spirit Sacred Dan.
And the Punching Spirit Sacred Dan was already the most precious elixir in the Ling Xiao Heavenly King’s Mansion. From this, it could be seen how great the value of the Golden Crow Dan was.
Zhang Ruochen opened a box that stored a stack of talismans, tens of them.
“Nine Heavens’ Robbery Talisman.”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes widened as he felt a little surprised.
Legend had it that a Nine Heavens’ Tribulation Talisman, once triggered, would explode with a power that could kill a Supreme Saint. And here, there were actually dozens of them.
Without hesitation, Zhang Ruochen twisted one of them, and then, went to check out the other treasures.
“Hundred Saint Blood Armour.”
Zhang Ruochen found five Hundred Saint Blood Armours, among them, four of them had all been damaged, and although a refiner had repaired them, the Saint Souls inside the blood armours could not be repaired.
Obviously, these four armours were unable to wield the strongest power of the Hundred Saint Blood Armour.
There was only one that was still intact.
“Luckily, I was able to come in early to pick it out, otherwise, all five Hundred Sacred Blood Armours would surely have been picked out by characters at the level of the Saint King of the Broad Cold Realm, so where would I get my turn.”
Zhang Ruochen grabbed the intact Hundred Saint Blood Armour and injected his Saint Qi into it.
“Wow.”
Instantly, the armour radiated ten thousand feet of blood aura and transformed into a glove that was attached to the top of Zhang Ruochen’s right hand, crystal clear and with distinct wheels and corners, as if it was cast using blood jade.
There were simply too many treasures in the World Treasure Vault to be seen, and it could be said that every single one of them was worth its weight in gold, but Zhang Ruochen could only pick one more right now.
“What exactly to pick? For combat treasures, I have the Sinking Abyss Ancient Sword, the Buddha Emperor’s Relic, and the Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron, and for defensive treasures, I have the Ten Saints Blood Armour and the Hundred Saints Blood Armour. What else do I need?”?Zhang Ruochen didn’t expect that there would be a time when he would be so entangled.
Thus, he closed his eyes and released his spiritual power, probing every corner of the World Treasure Vault, searching for the most suitable treasures to bring to the Battlefield of Merit.
Suddenly, Zhang Ruochen detected a faint spatial fluctuation.
His eyes snapped open, revealing a look of astonishment, “Could there be a spatial treasure in the treasure vault?”
Zhang Ruochen walked towards the direction where the spatial fluctuation had just come from, and eventually, walked next to a Ten Thousand Stripes Sacred Artifact grade shield.
On the shield, there were dozens of incomparably precious gems inlaid, divine blood condensed stones, dragon pearl fragments, and bone fragments of special beings ……
That spatial fluctuation was scattered from above one of the white gems.
“Space-time crystal stone, it’s actually a space-time crystal stone.”
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t help but let out a soft laugh, then, stretching out a finger, he pressed it on top of that gemstone, mobilising his Saint Qi and injecting it in.
The next moment, Zhang Ruochen’s palm was probing into the interior of the Space-Time Crystal Stone.
The inner space of this Space-Time Crystal Stone was roughly twenty metres in length, width and height, and the ratio of time to the outside world was four to one.
Back then, the Space-Time Crystal Stone that Emperor Ming had given to Zhang Ruochen was ten metres in length, width and height, and the time ratio was three to one.
“Could it be that the Space-Time Crystal Stone is naturally formed, and the space and time ratios within it are variable? Then, space-time crystals are also dug out from inside pits just like other spirit crystals and holy stones?”
“What kind of mining pit is it that can produce Space-Time Crystals?”
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t figure out the reason for this, thus, he stopped thinking about it for the time being.
Anyway, if he was able to find a Space-Time Crystal Stone, Zhang Ruochen’s cultivation degree would be able to reach four times of what it was before, which was a heavenly good thing.
Wu Hao noiselessly appeared behind Zhang Ruochen and said, “Brother Zhang, have you chosen yet?”
Zhang Ruochen acted calm and collected himself, grabbing the 10,000-stripe Saint Artifact grade shield and lifting it in his hands, saying, “Picked it out!”
Wu Hao looked at the three treasures that Zhang Ruochen had picked, a strange look appearing in his eyes as he said, “The Hundred Sacred Blood Armour, and the Fengbei Shield, they are all defensive treasures. The Nine Heavens’ Heist Talisman can only kill Supreme Saints as well, so with Brother Zhang’s cultivation level, when he encounters a Supreme Saints level Rakshasa, even if he can’t kill it, it’s still enough to retreat gracefully, so it doesn’t seem to be of much use.”
Zhang Ruochen glanced at the Nine Heavens’ Robbery Talisman in his hand and said, “It was used to give it away.”
In Wu Hao’s mind, the image of the earlier scene in Hidden Hundred~Million#^^Small!The extremely beautiful young girl standing beside Zhang Ruochen outside said, revealing a dawning expression as he laughed, “So that’s how it is. I didn’t see that Brother Zhang is actually a person of nature.”
Zhang Ruochen did not say any more and walked straight towards the outside of the World Treasure Vault.
Wu Hao stared at Zhang Ruochen’s back, a strange smile appearing in his eyes as he muttered, “I thought that you were a man without a breakthrough, but you are actually a hero as well.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to cover up in front of Wu Hao, nor did he want to play mind games with him, because, in Zhang Ruochen’s eyes, he had never regarded Wu Hao as a rival.
There was only one person who could make Zhang Ruochen see him as a rival, and that was Chi Yao.
Although, there was still a huge gap between him and Chi Yao right now, Zhang Ruochen firmly believed that sooner or later, one day, he would play a game of chess with Chi Yao as the chess player, and win back the game that Emperor Ming had lost back then.
Walking out of the World Treasure Vault, Zhang Ruochen handed over the Nine Heavenly Tribulation Talisman, into Mu Lingshi’s hands.
Aside from the Sons of the Realm and Divine Ambassadors, the Saints and Sacred Kings of the Guanghan Realm had to enter the World Treasure in order of their cultivation level.
Therefore, even though there were a total of dozens of Nine Heavenly Tribulation Talismans inside the World Treasures, however, by the time Mu Lingshi went in to pick them out, surely all the Nine Heavenly Tribulation Talismans would have been taken away.
This one Nine Heavens Pillage Symbol that Zhang Ruochen had brought out would be invaluable.
Mu Lingshi pinched the Nine Heaviness Heavenly Tribulation Talisman as if she was a little squirrel that had stolen honey, and smiled sweetly, “No way I’m going to be polite with you, I’ll take it!”
Zhang Ruochen took out a Ten Sacred Blood Armour and handed it to Mu Lingshi, saying, “When you enter the World Treasure Vault, you won’t need to pick out any more defensive treasures, the Ten Sacred Blood Armour is enough for you to use.”
In the Immortal Blood Clan, even True Saints and Supreme Saints used only the Ten Saint Blood Armour, moreover, not everyone had it.
The Hundred Saint Blood Armour, only the topmost figures of the Undying Blood Clan were qualified to use it. Not only because it was precious, but also because, stirring up the Hundred Saints’ power of the Hundred Saints’ Blood Armour, the consumption of holy qi was quite huge, and characters at the Saint level could not withstand it at all.
Back then, at the Boundary Son Banquet, although the Third Prince of the Qingtian Tribe was also wearing the Hundred Sacred Blood Armour, it was only the equivalent of a piece of armour with overwhelming defensive power, and not even one-thousandth of the power of the Hundred Sacred Blood Armour had been wielded out.
One must know that the power of a Hundred Saints was comparable to the power of a hundred Saints, and the Holy Qi output was also comparable to the Holy Qi output of a hundred Saints.
The reason why Zhang Ruochen dared to pick the Hundred Saints Blood Armour was because, his Qi Sea was ten thousand times more expansive than a normal person’s, and also, there were four Saint Sources, which allowed him to execute the Hundred Saints Power for a short period of time to fight.
Zhang Ruochen left the World Treasure Vault and returned to the Cultivation Cave, not wanting to waste a single minute, only wanting to raise his strength, some more, before entering the Ancestral Spirit Realm.
