Treasure Pavilion!
This is a ten-story tall building, though not as grand and ethereal as the Cloud Sea Pavilion, yet it exudes opulence and majesty in its arrangent. Even the floor tiles are made of Gold Silk Jade; the jade surface with gold silk flowing, and the pillars are made from the finest Purple Nanmu wood, emanating a faint sandalwood fragrance.
"Brother Chen, you're here!"
Including Xiao Tianzuo, Duan Qingxuan was also present. Apart from the third one, Xie Qixing, five of the Yan Capital Six were here to welco Chen Ku.
"Mr. Xiao, Helan, Miss Duan..."
Chen Ku cupped his hands, greeting the five individually, then asked Helan Qing:
"I received news from Brother Helan that there is a developnt regarding the Thunder Spirit item, hence my special visit, didn't expect you all to be here."
"Indeed, there is news, but it's a bit tricky. I called my older brother and the others over to think of a solution together with you, ideally to go with you."
Helan Qing said:
"After all, in three days, it's the Divine Martial Hall exam ti."
Chen Ku raised an eyebrow slightly, said, "Is there any issue with the origin of the Thunder Spirit item?"
"No problem with the origin, very clean, not privately owned."
Helan Qing said:
"It's a 'Single-Horned Red Kui'. If the information is correct, it should be a bloodline of the Ancient Great Demon 'Kui Niu', with a Returning to Ancestry 'Kui Thunder Horn' growing on its head, attracting Heavenly Thunder Day and Night onto the horn, it has already refined it into a life-bound treasure. Recently... it appeared in Fengbo Mountain, six thousand li outside Yan Capital, was sighted and reported to the local Demon Suppression Association, who sent nurous experts, all killed by the demon... estimated to have Eighth Realm peak strength."
"Fengbo Mountain, six thousand li away?"
Chen Ku stood up imdiately, said:
"Alright, then I shall make a trip now, and strive to acquire the item before the Divine Martial Hall recruitnt."
"Wait, Brother Chen."
Xiao Tianzuo said:
"We were worried you'd rush off upon hearing the news, so we all ca here to go with you. Given that Fengbo Mountain is far, six thousand li away, and the mountain is vast, with only three days till the Divine Martial Hall recruitnt, how could you manage alone? Thus... we wish to advise you either to wait until the recruitnt ends, then we'll accompany you, or... we head there together now, everyone acts, hopefully helping you get the Kui Thunder Horn before the recruitnt."
"That's absolutely unnecessary!"
Chen Ku hurriedly declined, then earnestly explained:
"Xiao, and everyone, I appreciate your goodwill, but listen first, though Fengbo Mountain is six thousand li away, I possess a secret technique to reach it in one day, and return perfectly in ti. If I can't find the Kui Beast within a day at the Fengbo Mountain, I'll return on the third day, just in ti for recruitnt. If you accompany , it would only delay your exam ti."
"Six thousand li in a day?" Helan Qing exclaid, "Brother Chen, you jest not?"
Chen Ku shook his head with a smile, said, "Not jesting, I indeed have such speed."
Then, he took a Top-Grade Famous Weapon from his storage gourd and offered it to Helan Qing, saying, "This is compensation for Brother Helan's assistance in gathering info, please accept."
Helan Qing hurriedly refused, said, "It's just information, yet unclear if the Kui Beast has been hunted, why offer such a thing? It's far too valuable."
Below a Divine Weapon is a Top-Grade Famous Weapon.
The market price for a Top-Grade Famous Weapon is at least Five Hundred Thousand Taels of Silver.
Chen Ku said with a smile, "As long as the Kui Beast is still in Fengbo Mountain, although I dare not claim ten percent certainty, at least have ninety percent certainty of finding it. Thus, the reward is paid."
"Brother Chen!"
Xiao Tianzuo said:
"Now in Yan Capital, you are in the spotlight; while in the city, others consider our relations with you, none will rashly act against you. But if you leave the city, there's no guarantee soone, coveting your Hero King Treasure, won't follow and act against you. So, it's better I go with you."
Chen Ku declined Xiao Tianzuo's kind offer again, said, "Xiao, I appreciate your goodwill, but this is a solitary path of cultivation for . Just see off, even if soone follows , they won't catch up."
Saying this, he had Xiao Tianzuo and the others see him out of the city.
Outside the city.
Chen Ku cupped his fists to the others, said:
"I'll head to Fengbo Mountain now, definitely return on the third day."
Saying this, he left no ti for them to speak further.
As his figure moved.
He vanished from sight, traveling five or six li per step, within breaths he was over ten li away.
"This speed?!"
Xu Fanfeng exclaid in shock:
"Last ti Brother Chen dueled , had he shown this speed, wouldn't be beaten much easier?"
Last ti, in a duel with Chen Ku.
Due to his fierce battle spirit, Chen Ku opted to confront him head-on, ultimately sending him flying into the riverbed with overpowering force, never showcasing this supernatural speed.
"This speed, even Eighth Realm peak experts can't catch up..."
Xiao Tianzuo and the others changed colors, said:
"No wonder Brother Chen has such confidence."
They were unaware.
Chen Ku had yet to reveal the true Green Divine Eagle transformation before them.
By then, he had reached fifty to sixty li into the mountain forest, sensing no one nearby, directly transford into the Green Divine Eagle to demonstrate his real speed.
