Chapter 1426: Encountering Time And Space Crystals Again

Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio

Coming to the library again, Zhang Ruochen and Mu Lingxi started flipping through records related to Zuling Field.

Soon, Zhang Ruochen found something important. After reading, he smiled. “I see.”

“You found it?”

Mu Lingxi walked over. She picked up the book in Zhang Ruochen’s hands. After reading a part of the content, her eyes brightened. “Ice and Fire Phoenix.”

The Ice and Fire Phoenix was a Supreme Saint from Zuling Field. It was rumored that it had the “Extreme Yin Nether Ice Force” and “Divine Fire Jingmie.” Its cultivation was infinitely close to becoming a god.

After its death, the god of Zuling Field personally buried it in the Phoenix Nest.

Only beings with the Ice Phoenix or Fire Phoenix blood could find the Phoenix Nest and open it. Otherwise, the Phoenix Nest would be destroyed with Zuling Field and never appear.

“The Moon Goddess must be talking about this,” Zhang Ruochen said. “If you go to Zuling Field, there’s a tiny chance that you can receive the inheritance from a phoenix Supreme Saint. But you might also lose your life.”

Mu Lingxi hugged the book tightly. Her eyes were determined. “No need to dissuade me anymore. I must go to Zuling Field.”

There was something else that Mu Lingxi didn’t say out loud. Zhang Ruochen, she thought. I must follow your steps no matter what. Otherwise, one day, you’ll still have a young body while I will have aged. How can I still stay beside you by then?

“You have the right to decide for yourself. I won’t force you.”

Zhang Ruochen stopped dissuading her. He walked out of the library with his hands behind his back.

Wu Hao stood outside the library. His long hair fell on either side of his face. Seeing Zhang Ruochen walk out, he said, “Brother Zhang, I heard that you were at the library so I hurried over to find you.”

“Heir, how can I help you?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Right then, Mu Lingxi walked out too and stood beside Zhang Ruochen.

Wu Hao glanced at Mu Lingxi. His expression unchanged, he said to Zhang Ruochen, “The World Treasury of Guanghan Field has opened. As the Heir and priest of the Saints Merits Battle, we’re qualified to enter beforehand and choose any three treasures.”

The merits battle was a matter of life or death to Guanghan Field. Opening the World Treasury was a very normal thing.

After all, the stronger the participants were, the bigger the chance for victory.

The World Treasury was a combination of all the resources of the Supreme Saints. It was collected in Tongyou Saint Territory.

After Zhang Ruochen and Wu Hao entered, they were shocked by the treasures, even with their level of experience.

Zhang Ruochen saw more than 1,000 Ten-thousand-pattern Saint Weapons. There were weapons and armor. Each one was a top treasure in a major world.

“Middle-grade Saint Pill, the Gold Raven Pill. This is the legendary item that even Saint Kings dream of having.”

The Spirit-Charging Pill that Zhang Ruochen had refined was also a middle-grade Saint Pill. However, there was a big difference compared to the Gold Raven Pill.

In the Heaven World, one Gold Raven Pill could be exchanged for a dozen Spirit-Charging Pills.

The Spirit-Charging Pill itself was already the most precious pill of the Lingxiao Heavenly King Mansion. It was evident just how valuable the Gold Raven Pill was.

Zhang Ruochen opened a box. There were a dozen rune scrolls folded inside it.

“Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune.”

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes widened. He felt a bit shocked.

In legends, the power from one activated Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune could kill an Absolute Saint. There were a dozen runes here.

Zhang Ruochen picked one up without hesitation. Then he went to check the other treasures.

“Hundred-Saint Blood Armor.”

Zhang Ruochen discovered five Hundred-Saint Blood Armors. Four of them were damaged. Though an alchemist had repaired it, the saint soul within could never be fixed.

It was clear that these four pieces of armor wouldn’t be able to unleash the Hundred-Saint Blood Armor’s strongest power.

Only one was undamaged.

“Thankfully I came to choose beforehand. Otherwise, the five Hundred-Saint Blood Armors would definitely have been chosen by the Saint Kings of Guanghan Field. I wouldn’t have the chance.”

Zhang Ruochen grabbed the undamaged Hundred-Saint Blood Armor and poured his Holy Qi in.

Whoosh!

The armor instantly shone with bright bloody light. It transformed into a boxing glove and lay on Zhang Ruochen’s right hand. It was translucent with clear edges. It looked like it was made out of bloody jade.

There were honestly too many treasures in the World Treasury. It was dizzying. Basically, every item was worth a million, but Zhang Ruochen could only choose one.

“Which one should I choose? For attack weapons, I have the Abyss Ancient Sword, Buddha’s sarira, and Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron. For defense, I have the Ten-Saint Blood Armor and Hundred-Saint Blood Armor. What else do I need?” Zhang Ruochen never thought that he would be so indecisive.

Thus, he closed his eyes and released his Spiritual Power. He investigated each corner of the World Treasury, searching for the treasure most suitable to bring onto the merits battlefield.

Suddenly, he sensed weak spatial ripples.

His eyes flew open with a shocked expression. “There’s a spatial treasure here?”

Zhang Ruochen walked in the direction of the spatial ripples. Finally, he stood beside a Ten-thousand-pattern Saint Weapon shield.

There were a dozen extremely valuable gems embedded onto the shield—divine blood stones, dragon pearl shards, special bone fragments...

The spatial ripples came from one of the white stones.

“Time and Space Crystal. It’s actually a Time and Space Crystal.”

Zhang Ruochen couldn’t hold in a soft laugh. He extended a finger, pressing onto the stone. He activated his Holy Qi and sent it in.

The next moment, Zhang Ruochen’s palm had reached into the Time and Space Crystal.

The inside of the crystal was around 20 meters in length, width, and height. The time ratio was 4:1 compared to the outside world.

The Time and Space Crystal that Emperor Ming had given Zhang Ruochen was ten meters in length, width, and height. The time ratio was 3:1.

Could it be that Time and Space Crystals are formed naturally, so the inner space and time ratio aren’t set? Then are Time and Space Crystals also mined like other crystals and saint stones?

What kind of mine can produce Time and Space Crystals?

Zhang Ruochen couldn’t figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it for now.

Anyway, if he could find a Time and Space Crystal, his cultivation speed would be four times faster than before. This was great news.

Wu Hao appeared soundlessly behind Zhang Ruochen. “Brother Zhang, have you chosen?”

Zhang Ruochen acted calm. Grabbing the Ten-thousand-pattern Saint Weapon shield, he held it and said, “Done!”

Wu Hao looked at the three items that Zhang Ruochen had chosen. An odd look flashed past his eyes. “The Hundred-Saint Blood Armor and Monument Shield are both defensive treasures. The Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune can only kill an Absolute Saint. With your cultivation, you can escape easily even if you can’t kill an Absolute Saint Luosha. It doesn’t seem to be useful.”

Zhang Ruochen glanced at the Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune in his hand. “It’s for someone else.”

The beautiful girl who’d stood beside Zhang Ruochen outside the library appeared in Wu Hao’s mind. He smiled in realization. “I see. I didn’t know Brother Zhang was so sentimental.”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t say anything. He walked straight out of the World Treasury.

Wu Hao stared at Zhang Ruochen’s back. An odd smile appeared in his eyes as he murmured to himself, “I thought that you’d have no weak spots, but you also can’t resist the beauty.”

Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to hide things before Wu Hao or be so cynical, because he never viewed Wu Hao as his opponent.

The only person who Zhang Ruochen viewed as his opponent was Chi Yao.

There was still a big gap between them. But Zhang Ruochen believed that one day, he would play a game of chess with Chi Yao as the chess piece manipulator. He would win the game that Emperor Ming had lost back then.

Walking out of the World Treasury, Zhang Ruochen handed the Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune to Mu Lingxi.

Other than the Heir and priest, the Saints and Saint Kings of Guanghan Field had to go into the World Treasury according to their cultivation level.

Thus, even if the World Treasury had a dozen Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Runes, it would all be gone by the time Mu Lingxi could go in.

This made the Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune that Zhang Ruochen brought out seem extremely valuable.

Mu Lingxi clutched it like a little squirrel who’d stolen some candy. She smiled sweetly. “I won’t be polite with you. I’ll take it!”

Zhang Ruochen took out Ten-Saint Blood Armor and gave it to Mu Lingxi. “You won’t need to choose a defensive treasure when you enter the World Treasury. The Ten-Saint Blood Armor is enough for you.”

For the Immortal Vampires, even True Saints and Absolute Saints only used Ten-Saint Blood Armor. Even then, not everyone had it.

Only the top figures of the Immortal Vampires were qualified to use Hundred-Saint Blood Armor. It wasn’t only because it was valuable. Even more so, it was because it greatly exhausted Holy Qi to activate the Hundred-Saint power. Saints couldn’t withstand it at all.

Back at the Heir Banquet, the third prince of the Qingtian Tribe had put on the Hundred-Saint Blood Armor, but it had only been like a super-defensive armor. He couldn’t unleash even 1/1000th of the power.

After all, the Hundred-Saint Power was like the power of 100 Saints. The Holy Qi exertion was also equal to the exertion of Holy Qi from 100 Saints.

Zhang Ruochen dared to choose the Hundred-Saint Blood Armor because his Sea of Qi was 10,000 times more vast than regular people. He also had four saintly sources, so he could use the Hundred-Saint Power for short-term fighting.

Zhang Ruochen left the World Treasury and returned to his cultivation residence. He didn’t want to waste a single minute. He wanted to improve his abilities a bit more before entering Zuling Field.
