"Disciple nephew, if you do not wish to divulge this secret technique, just say so directly. Why tease us like this?"
A Jie Sect Golden Immortal with unremarkable appearance couldn't hide the disappointnt on his face as he looked at Yu Yuan sowhat discontentedly.
Yu Yuan, with a smile that wasn't quite a smile, said, "If you don't believe it, you can try it out for yourselves."
Try it out?
The group of Jie Sect Immortals exchanged glances.
That was Heavenly Punishnt Divine Thunder, not sothing to be trifled with!
How many lives do you have to be so bold?
"Let's not worry about how to evade the thunder for now!"
At this mont, Bai Li Heavenly Monarch looked at Yu Yuan anxiously, "Disciple nephew, could you give that Fusang Divine Wood? With it as the array's focal point, my Fiery Fla Formation could be empowered with Taiyang Fire, increasing its might by a full thirty percent!
Of course, I will not ask for it for nothing. I can exchange it with a mid-grade Spiritual Weapon!"
Yu Yuan glanced at him sidelong and said with annoyance, "You want to exchange my treasure for just a mid-grade Spiritual Weapon? Do you think I'm ignorant? No deal!"
Bai Li Heavenly Monarch's face flushed slightly, glanced at the Seven Fragrant Treasure Car, and clenched his teeth, "Plus a mid-grade Spiritual Treasure! I'll trade two items for your one! That's as far as I'll go! Although the Fusang Divine Wood is precious, it is a fire attribute Spirit Root, and it's of little use for you, nephew."
He was actually speaking the truth.
The Fusang Divine Wood was transford from the eyelash of the Great God Pangu.
Legend has it that after the fall of the Great God Pangu, his eyes beca the sun and the moon.
His right eye beca Taiyin Star, and its eyelash turned into the essence of water, becoming the jade laurel tree, imbued with Taiyin True Water, of ultimate yin and coldness, freezing Heaven and Earth.
His left eye beca Taiyang Star, and its eyelash turned into the essence of fire, becoming the Fusang Divine Wood, imbued with Taiyang Fire, of ultimate yang and firmness, burning all things.
For Bai Li, who specialized in the art of fire and knew about arrays and artifact refining, the Fusang Divine Wood was an exceptional divine wood; he wouldn't trade it even for a top-grade Spiritual Treasure!
But to Yu Yuan, it was of little use.
At most, he would chop off a small twig to use as kindling, drawing out the Taiyang Fire for "cultivation."
Or to construct a new Treasure Hall.
If feeling extravagant, he could transplant it into his Tian Yuan Palace as a piece of scenic decoration.
By comparison, it was clearly more practical to exchange it for a Spiritual Treasure or a Spiritual Weapon.
When he first beca a disciple, Golden Spirit Saint Mother did give him a Qiankun Ruyi Bag and a Golden Light Rasp.
The forr contained a world within, with thousands of miles round, and was more than enough to hold people or objects, truly a mid-grade Spiritual Treasure; the latter was one foot and three inches long, able to be used to injure opponents, but it was only of modest power, rely a low-grade Spiritual Treasure.
Besides that, all he had were the Treasure Halls he had refined himself, with no handy weapons at his disposal.
Thinking thus, he nodded and said, "I'll take a look at the treasures first."
A glint of joy flashed through Bai Li Heavenly Monarch's eyes as he heartily nodded and, with a gentle wave of his hand, two streaks of spiritual light flew out of his sleeve and towards Yu Yuan.
Yu Yuan reached out and grasped one of the spiritual lights. In his hand, it manifested into a tallic round hamr, gleaming with an array of colorful lights and auspicious aura.
The handle of this round hamr was more than three feet long with a lon-sized, round head engraved with golden dragon patterns.
To his surprise, this hamr was much heavier than he had anticipated as he weighed it in his hands.
At this point, Bai Li Heavenly Monarch said with so astonishnt, "This hamr, called Mixed Gold Hamr, was forged from a fusion of Deep Sea Blue Gold, Shouyang Red Copper, Beiming black iron, Heavenly River divine treasures, and over a dozen other types of refined tals. From the four main materials, each amounted to fifty-four thousand catties, making this Mixed Gold Hamr exceptionally heavy.
Even without the empowernt of mana, it weighs over two hundred thousand catties. If animated with the power of a Heavenly Immortal, it can reach the might of one million catties, and even I struggle to wield it...
Seeing the nephew handling it so effortlessly, it seems the rumors of your inherent divine strength are indeed not false!"
Yu Yuan was quite satisfied with the Mixed Gold Hamr and extended his hand to grab the other spiritual light as well.
In his hand, the spiritual light transford into a fiery red dart, smooth and warm as jade to the touch, its composition unknown.
Bai Li Heavenly Monarch quickly explained, "This is the Fire Thunder Dart, forged from Purple Sun Red Gold. When thrown, it emits both thunder and fire, possessing powerful might!"
Yu Yuan nodded and looked toward Huo Ling'er beside him, "What do you think?"
Huo Ling'er sized it up, nodded, and said: "This Fire Thunder Dart looks pretty nice, just not sure how it'll perform when used."
Yu Yuan tossed the Fire Thunder Dart over as he spoke, smiling: "Glad it catches your eye."
Huo Ling'er caught the Fire Thunder Dart and exclaid in surprise: "Is this for ?"
Yu Yuan nodded and laughed: "It's hard to split a single Fusang Divine Wood, but with two Spiritual Treasures, it's perfect for us – one each. If you don't want it, you can give it to . I don't mind hoarding it for myself."
"No way!"
Huo Ling'er quickly stashed away the Fire Thunder Dart, her eyes curving into a smile, "Since you gave it to , it's mine now!"
With that, she excitedly ran up to Duobao Taoist, showing off the Fire Thunder Dart before his eyes.
Duobao Taoist glanced at her with annoyance, "It's just a mid-grade Spiritual Treasure. The Ta'ia Double Swords I gave you are top-grade Spiritual Treasures, yet you weren't this delighted!"
Huo Ling'er just "hehe'd" with a silly laugh as if she hadn't heard him, causing Duobao Taoist to shake his head continuously.
On the other side, Bai Li Heavenly Monarch also walked over joyfully, displaying Divine Skills of the Ruyi to collect the Fusang Divine Wood into his sleeve.
Yu Yuan was quite satisfied with the two treasures obtained from this transaction.
The Fire Thunder Dart, a ranged attack-type Spiritual Treasure, perfectly compensated for the Ta'ia Double Swords' weakness in long-distance combat and could also be coordinated with her Golden Radiance Crown; and there was no need to even speak of the Mixed Gold Hamr – despite the Spiritual Weapon lacking any innate Divine Skills, its weight of over two-hundred-thousand jin was its greatest highlight!
Although for Yu Yuan, the hamr was still far from handy, it was barely usable now.
After both parties completed the exchange, a group of Jie Sect Immortals crowded around Yu Yuan, eager to understand his secret technique for avoiding the thunder.
Huo Ling'er hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Hasn't my junior brother already told you the thod?"
"Don't joke with us, junior nephew," said Qin Wan Heavenly Monarch with a trace of irritation: "That was Heavenly Punishnt Divine Thunder, are you saying it can be swallowed?"
Huo Ling'er grew anxious, "My junior brother kindly shared the thod with you. If you don't appreciate it, that's fine, but doubting him is another thing!"
Just then, two Jie Sect Immortals who had gone to inquire about news returned with faces full of shock and astonishnt.
"There's no mistake! We just asked many Immortal Gods, and they all witnessed with their own eyes how junior nephew Yu Yuan swallowed the Heavenly Punishnt Divine Thunder!"
At this instant, all the Jie Sect Immortals were dumbstruck, unable to utter a single word for a long while.
Even Duobao Taoist looked at Yu Yuan with astonishnt, eyes flickering, pondering sothing unknown.
After a good while, one Jie Sect Immortal muttered to himself, with curiosity and anticipation in his eyes.
"So... the Heavenly Punishnt Divine Thunder can really be swallowed?"
"Let's try it, what if it works?"
"Sounds reasonable. Senior brother, you try first."
"Um... maybe you should go first, junior brother." Contentsourcedfrom*–MyVirtualLibraryEmpire.
...
At this mont, a cool voice emanated from the Seven Fragrant Treasure Car, "My fellow junior brothers and sisters, do not forget the purpose of your visit here."
As the voice rang out, the curtains around the Seven Fragrant Treasure Car parted by themselves to reveal the Golden Spirit Saint Mother's perfect beauty of unparalleled elegance.
Her hair was combed into a regal updo, adorned with elaborate ornants, and she was dressed in light gold garnts, with a golden necklace around her neck and a gold pattern on her forehead, looking dignified and regal with a vigorous aura.
Most captivating were her phoenix eyes.
When she smiled, they were naturally enchanting, yet when calm, they were awe-inspiring.
At this mont, she calmly watched the group of Jie Sect Immortals, her presence so majestic that no one dared to match her gaze.
"Junior Sister Golden Spirit is right to remind us."
Duobao Taoist looked around at the Jie Sect Immortals: "Our journey is for the possible Chaos Bell Fragnts under Returning Ruins! If we can find and repair this treasure, it will stabilize the fortune of our Jie Sect. Thus, we cannot afford any negligence!
The news of treasures in Returning Ruins has already spread; more Immortal Gods will rush to Returning Ruins, and Quasi-Saints might even appear... But no matter who cos, as long as there are Chaos Bell Fragnts beneath Returning Ruins, our Jie Sect must obtain them!"
