Chapter 717: Sharpen the Tools
Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
At this mont, ng Qi truly felt like a tycoon. Sensing the “World of Dao” was worth too many Karma points. It was the foundation of top sects. If grandmasters or stronger masters in the Immortals could sense it from ti to ti, perhaps they could create a Dharmakaya divine skill within two decades using its theory. If they couldn’t, they could also improve their own skills and promote their sense and mastery of the full enlightennt of profound theory, which was beneficial for their breakthrough from their current realm. It was truly worth the 6,000 Karma points!
If not for the imminent death task, ng Qi wanted to go to Huai Heights with the Supre-wisdom Tree and express his gratitude to Master Lu for his guidance and help. He would let Master Lu sense it casually in order get close to him. Then, among orthodox Dharmakaya, there would be three who had a close relationship with him and were much obliged to him. The evil masters would then not provoke him regardless of their endless hatred.
When these thoughts flashed in his mind, ng Qi said, “This ti items, such as secret treasures or charms are forbidden. Our preparation is simple, with two furnaces of Immortality Elixirs of East Pole. Even if we don’t have spare weapons, we need to upgrade our weapons into exquisite ones. It is true also of defense. In a word, we must spare no effort to leave without regret.”
Boots, wristbands and so on were included in the list of protective types of equipnt, sharing a quota with the Taoist robes and uniforms. When they did the task, the ng Qi’s and Jiang Zhiwei’s shoes would all lose their function.
Jiang Zhiwei’s smile vanished and she said, “This ti we won’t be exchanging for secret treasures that everybody could use. Collecting everyone’s Karma points together, exchanging and then allocating to everyone is unfair. I know, you, little monk, won’t care about this, but we will feel guilty doing that. If we are not ntally settled, then we can’t use our strength fully.”
She saw that this ti the gap between everyone’s Karma points was too large, and this ti they weren’t exchanging for secret treasures that the whole team could use, so she made this proposal.
“So?” ng Qi probably guessed Jiang Zhiwei’s aning.
“So we will borrow Karma points for now and will return them after completing the task.” Jiang Zhiwei looked at Ruan Yushu and Zhao Heng.
They nodded, indicating that this proposal was right.
“No problem.” ng Qi did not refuse when he saw the team agreed with it. “At present, we still need to figure out how many Karma points we need to exchange for two furnaces of Immortality Elixir of East Pole.”
He possessed the elixir description, but he did not know how many Qinghua Fruits and auxiliary herbal jellies his companions had prepared.
His friends took out whatever they had collected, which were not much when counted. Ruan Yushu’s collection accounted for half of the total as those things were truly too difficult to find.
After asking the Six Taoist, ng Qi and others found that, in addition to two pieces of Qinghua Fruit that were alive for more than 500 years, so herbal jellies, and the cost for cultivating them through the Six Taoist, the total Karma points needed for two furnaces were 20,000.
Jiang Zhiwei gave a suggestion. “Everyone pays 4,000 Karma points. Since the little monk didn’t collect anything, he will pay 6,000. Sister Yushu pays only 2,000 since her collection exceeds ours.”
Everyone agreed with her. ng Qi smiled at Ruan Yushu and said, “I’ll lend you another 2,000 Karma points. You owe 3,100 in total.”
Ruan Yushu nodded earnestly. “This task will reward 4,500 Karma points.”
“The prerequisite is that we finish it...” ng Qi did not say such unlucky words out loud.
The team quickly gathered 20,000 Karma points. With the elixir prescription, the beam of light spread with fragrant perfu wafting. Then two furnaces and six pills of Immortality Elixir of East Pole appeared, verdantly surrounded by clouds of magic strength, cozy and transparent inside.
Jiang Zhiwei and the others took out their prepared jade bottles. Each of them took one pill, and one was left with ng Qi as backup.
With the Guanghan Jade Robe and the Zither of Seven Deities, there was no need for Ruan Yushu to exchange for other things. She stood aside and looked at ng Qi and Jiang Zhiwei.
Jiang Zhiwei didn’t seem to be affected by the pressure of the death task. She cheerfully said, “I just need to upgrade the Seamless Robes of Heaven into an exquisite item.”
The Sword of the Sun-Penetrating Rainbow was already an exquisite weapon. If its power was completely exerted, the strength it released would be equivalent to a Half-step master. However, unlike the main ingredients of divine weapons, it depended on the realm and strength of its holder. With Jiang Zhiwei’s current situation and her compatibility with it, its complete operation should be like the strength of an ordinary grandmaster. Together with her own Dharmakaya movents, she could arrive at the peak state of the exterior master. Of course for those grandmasters, who didn’t have a good command of Dharmakaya killing movent?
Moreover, Jiang Zhiwei could only use it seven or eight tis, and could not use it twice in a row, otherwise, she would run out of her energy like ng Qi when he operated his main ingredients of divine weapons.
ng Qi and the others looked for a while before they settled on a plan, exchanging for Silk of the Weaving Fairy and upgrading the Seamless Robes of Heaven, which cost 2,000 Karma points in total together with cultivation and materials.
“Seamless Robes of Heaven, a precious defense weapon (exquisite). It is said that during the ancient tis, every thousand years, a Seamless Robe of Heaven would erge at the celestial court at the level of divine weapons. It could demonstrate the form of golden armor and light gown which was possessed by every soldier there. After the ancient ti, there were always so descendants who replicated this clothes. Those added materials, such as the Silk of the Weaving Fairy and the water of the Milky Way, were among the top of the list, close to divine weapons. It is water and fire resistant, allowing the wearer to roam in the celestial river, and it is close to the body defense of the ninth consummation of the golden bell shield even without a trigger. If it is operated, its strength depends on the realm, which could range from the tenth consummation to the eleventh consummation of the golden bell shield. It has three weak points, however, that are in a dynamic state. It is degraded under the vital spirit defense or its equivalent. It is worth 9,700 Karma points.”
The ninth consummation of golden bell shield was a sign of stepping over the first Celestial Ladder, the tenth was the second Celestial Ladder, the eleventh was the third Celestial Ladder, and the twelfth consummation could freeze the Dharmakaya. Therefore, during the stage of lacking essential gap between the body defense and the Eight Nine Mysteries, the ninth consummation was approximately equivalent to the fourfold heaven of Eight Nine Mysteries, the tenth was the sevenfold heaven and the eleventh consummation was not that strong, only equal to the ninefold heaven rather than the half-step Dharmakaya of Eight Nine Mysteries.
This was only the body defense. The vital spirit defense was weaker than the Eight Nine Mysteries.
“Plus, with the assistance of Nine Revolving Mystic Kung Fu, the defense power of Zhiwei could be trendous...” ng Qi was very pleased.
Qi Zhengyan ca forward without saying a word as if he had already thought it through. He spent 9,500 Karma points on a “Heaven Crystal Gown,” which was renowned for its hardness. Its defensive power was half stronger than the Seamless Robes of Heaven and the Guanghan Jade Robe during a fight, but it was a little bit weaker in the face of a gently penetrating attack and lacked the function of roaming in Celestial River and attacking its enemy.
“For the successor of Devil Lord, gentle penetration is its strength...” ng Qi silently sighed.
After that, Qi Zhengyan exchanged for the broken scales of the Arctic True Dragon and upgraded his Golden Dragon Stripe Sword to an exquisite weapon, costing him 4,000 Karma points in total. Its strength was approximate to Jiang Zhiwei’s Sword of the Sun-Penetrating Rainbow, but unlike Jiang Zhiwei who intertwined her life with the sword, his concealed strength was weaker, so his operation was a little bit worse and seldom operated it.
Watching them finish their exchanges, Zhao Heng said to ng Qi sincerely, “You go first, I only have 1,000 Karma points left and need to borrow the rest from you.”
He was slightly embarrassed and his face went pale. He had never thought he would be reduced to borrowing as he used to be the one rich in Karma points in the team.
ng Qi said little out of fear of further agitating him. He took out Heaven Inflicted Pain and exchanged for the Athyst Lightning Ore which could upgrade his sword into an exquisite weapon. After one year’s precipitation, it could be upgraded again.
It took 4,000 Karma points. Heaven Inflicted Pain beca heavier as if it could shake vanity itself.
“Heaven Inflicted Pain, a Precious Weapon of the Exquisite Grade, with a blade made out of Sky Thunder Gold and a handle carved out of Thunder Wood that was coagulated with purple crystal, Bluish Stone, and other precious materials... It is exceptionally heavy, weighing more than 900kg... It has definite control over various kinds of lighting and is extrely powerful. If it is fully operated, it can achieve the strength of an ordinary grandmaster and Half-step to Dharmakaya depending on its holder’s realm and strength. The weapon is worth 9,700 Karma points.”
ng Qi shook the Heaven Inflicted Pain and felt that it could kill the enemy with its speed and weight alone. The heavier, the better.
After a year of cultivation and training, Flowing Fire had already beco an exquisite weapon, while the Mystic Turtle was already one. Now ng Qi was only lacking an Exquisite blade.
Jiang Zhiwei suddenly suggested sothing. “With your unique nature of The Big Bang Technique, you’d better find a sharp blade without any specialty.”
“Only a sharp one? How much more terrifying would it be if he put all his promotions on this blade and used it with The Big Bang Technique?” ng Qi was imdiately persuaded, and after a mont of thinking, he made up his mind and chose a precious weapon called “Saber of the Shattered Jade.”
“Saber of the Shattered Jade, a precious weapon of the exquisite grade, is made out of the strength of the white tiger after nine tis without any specialty. It cannot trigger changes of climate. It is extrely sharp and can destroy precious weapons of the low grade. If it is fully operated, it can destroy mid-grade precious weapons or even cut a top grade one depending on its holder’s realm and strength. The weapon is worth 9,800 Karma points.”
“Great.” ng Qi nodded to indicate his satisfaction. As soone who was newly rich, he could spend a lot on a single transaction.
He was already equipped with weapons and blades and now only lacked defensive equipnt. ng Qi’s Qingyuan Taoist Robes were destroyed in the Ninth Heaven, so he looked over the series of Taoist robes and picked the “Kunlun Taoist Robe” which was similar to the Seamless Robes of Heaven in all aspects except it couldn’t travel through the Celestial River. However, it had the function of following and changing. It was worth 9,700 Karma points.
For ng Qi, the Kunlun Taoist Robe without operation wasn’t comparable to his own body at all, and it was purely for use in case of ergency.
“As the Heavenly Primogenitor, should I need to wear the Kunlun Taoist Robe!” ng Qi enjoyed adversity.
Zhao Heng walked to the central jade pillar when all the exchanges were completed, and then he said calmly, “Actually, I’ve already exchanged all my protection secret treasures, extra precious weapons, useless elixirs, and remaining exotic minerals and produce for an exquisite grade taphysical yellowish robe for the emperor.”
During the conversation, the robe he wore turned to the taphysical yellowish robe, full of the breath of divine rits.
Because he was worried about disclosing the matters of The Immortals, he had not ntioned it before, but then, he saw ng Qi bring out the Supre-wisdom Tree. It seed Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu already knew about it, and he knew imdiately in his heart that he no longer had to conceal it.
He cleared all his equipnt except for the True Emperor Seal and left the precious weapon Fish Dragon Sword, an Immortality Elixir of East Pole, and the taphysical yellowish robe.
As for how to account to the Political Affairs Hall, he would finish the death task first before thinking about it. He couldn’t think too much at this ti!
“So, I just need to improve the Fish Dragon Sword to the exquisite grade.” Zhao Heng said in a gentle tone, but his inside determination was quite firm.
The step-by-step upgrade may cause irreversible damage to the Fish Dragon Sword and there was no way to achieve the following promotion, but for Zhao Heng, if he couldn’t beco a Dharmakaya, it would be fine as he could draw enough power from Fish Dragon Sword. However, if he could claim his emperor identity, he could get the Emperor Sword!
Seeing that Zhao Heng had made up his mind, ng Qi and the others didn’t persuade him. They helped him find a way to get a promotion. The thod needed 6,700 Karma points.
ng Qi lent him 6,000 Karma points and watched him get a promotion. For him, the remaining 6,390 Karma points did not have to be exchanged as he was strong enough with his Exterior movents and skills!
The brilliant rays scattered and turned into thousands of lights. The warm vibe spread as the glory of human nature shined. The Fish Dragon Sword made so noise and flew into Zhao Heng’s arms.
After another discussion about the task, the ti limit ca upon them, and a light began to shine. The five people disappeared from Samsara Square and the indifferent voice of Dominator of Samsara in Six Realms was heard in their ears.
“For this death task, you will be forbidden from using your Secret Treasures and other artifacts. You will rely only on your own skills, your weapons, your raints, and other protective gears as well as only one elixir or concoction with healing properties.”
“‘Peacekeeping Heavenly King’ Du Huaishang, the leader of the Red Coat Army, has beco the supre commander of the Eighteen Revolutionary Alliance. With unstoppable force, the army has swept through the entire southwestern region, barreling straight for the seat of the imperial court. The imperial court is amassing legions of warriors to defend the empire. Both armies have now t at the banks of Nu River.”
“Your main task is to join the revolutionary army and help Du Huaishang against the main force of the imperial army and cross the river to take the capital. Upon completion of the mission, 4,000 Karma points along with greater privileges will be awarded. Failure shall result in your execution!
“Your side task: a Group-rivaling Mission. Annihilate any Samsara traveler who is aligned with the imperial court.
