Chapter Seventy-Five: Heavy Treasure

  Without lingering in the Lingbao Hall, Ji Changkong and Bai Qingya returned to their rear wing room before nightfall.

  To fight against Ji Lingxue, Ji Changkong made early preparations and once again entered the state of nothingness to cultivate through the night, attempting to restore his yuan power to its peak as soon as possible.

  In the dead of night, Ji Changkong woke up leisurely.

  In the dead of night, he cultivated bitterly, and the yuan force in his body not only fully recovered, but also subtly increased. A pair of eyes shone brightly in the dimly lit room, like the twinkling starlight outside the window.

  She poured a cup of warm water, avoiding Bai Qingya who was resting in another corner, and Ji Changkong came to the most secluded corner of the wing room, with her back to Bai Qingya, her eyes gradually turning silver.

  His eyes turned cold, a silver light suddenly shot out, and the warm water in his hand instantly became an ice cube!

  Crack!

  Due to the severe cold, the warm water froze too quickly, and the ceramic cup suddenly shattered. A chunk of ice in the shape of a cup, emitting white misty air, fell into his palm.

  "Huh?"

  Bai Qingya lightly called out and suddenly opened her eyes, saying in a low voice: "What's going on? The temperature in the room has dropped sharply, I can even feel a bit cold..."

  Surprised, Ji Changkong turned around and White Qingya asked softly, "Changkong, why didn't you continue to cultivate?"

  "I've recovered. I'd like to see what time it is now." With that, Ji Changkong pushed open the window and, with his back still turned to Bai Qingya, threw out the chunk of solid ice in his hand.

  "Alas, I don't know what to say to you anymore. Why did you agree to fight that girl?" Bai Qingya's face was filled with worry, and she sighed softly: "Changkong, I know your yuan energy is profound, and your control over it is extremely precise. Even if a Tian Shi from the Three Talents Heaven Realm were to be slightly higher in cultivation than you, you wouldn't be afraid! But that girl is a Four Symbols Tian Shi, an entire realm apart! This isn't something that can be made up for by just having profound yuan energy!"

  "Don't worry, White Sister, I know what I'm doing." With a smile, Ji Changkong closed the window and returned to his previous seated position, closing his eyes. "It's still early, White Sister, let's continue resting. Tomorrow, the Lingbao Pavilion will also be taking out its treasures for display, and it'll definitely be even more lively then."

  He said that, Bai Qingya knew that it was useless to persuade him again, and could only nod with a bitter smile on his face. However, in his heart, he secretly decided that when Ji Changkong and Ju Lingxue were fighting, if the situation took a turn for the worse, he would immediately speak out to stop them, and definitely not let anything happen to him!

  ……

  On the second day, the Lingbao Conference continued.

  Outside the Lingbao Grand Hall, heavenly warriors from all sides were still selling their own spiritual treasures in the spacious area outside the hall. Inside the Lingbao Hall, the spiritual treasures that had been appraised by the Lingbao Pavilion continued to attract many powerful heavenly warriors. The Moon Heart Stone, Sun Heart Stone, Soul Devouring Demon Brain Marrow, and Carefree Wanderer were among the spiritual treasures on display today, after failing to obtain the needed items yesterday.

  Not only that, but today there were also some other spiritual treasures, which after being appraised by the appraiser, were placed on the counter one after another, attracting many heavenly scholars to gather around and watch.

  The bell rings!

  Many powerful heavenly warriors inside the Lingbao Hall suddenly rushed towards the Lingbao Pavilion at the top of the main hall.

  The bell rang, meaning that the Lingbao Pavilion on the top floor of the Lingbao Hall was about to display the Lingbao collected by the Chen family. Many of the heavenly masters who came to the Lingbao Conference this time were staring at the Lingbao displayed in the Lingbao Pavilion. They also knew the rules, except for a few heavenly masters who were still haggling with the sellers inside the temple. Many people rushed straight to the Lingbao Pavilion.

  Ji Changkong and Bai Qingya were no exception, they also followed those heavenly warriors, hastily rushing up the stairs to arrive at the Lingbao Pavilion.

  "Ladies and gentlemen, this time the Lingbao Pavilion will be exhibiting three spiritual treasures. We welcome everyone to bid on them. Among these spiritual treasures, two of them can be purchased with sufficient yuan stones. Of course, you can also exchange them for other spiritual treasures, as long as they are verified by our appraisers at the Lingbao Pavilion and deemed to be of equivalent grade. In this way, you may have the opportunity to acquire our exhibited spiritual treasures without spending a single yuan stone..."

  Crowds of people surged forward, and before the two had even arrived at the Lingbao Pavilion, they heard a pleasant female voice that was already introducing something.

  After squeezing in with great difficulty, I looked up and saw that the central part of the Lingbao Pavilion had a slightly higher platform. On the platform, a beautiful woman who looked similar to Chen Yihui was wearing a long dress of emerald green color, elegantly displaying three spiritual treasures on the platform to the crowd.

  "Her name is Chen Yirong, the second shopkeeper of Lingbao Pavilion." Bai Qingya introduced in a low voice.

  She nodded slightly, and Ji Changkong didn't say much, but instead focused his attention on the three spiritual treasures displayed on the platform.

  A three-foot green blade, no scabbard, simple and unadorned style, no one holds it, yet there is a fierce and soaring sword energy, the sword energy condenses at the tip of the sword without dispersing, taking on a misty shape that floats and hovers.

  A curved bow, in vermilion color, with a bowstring as thick as a thumb, made of dragon tendon. Three small arrows, with rhombus-shaped arrowheads, each engraved with the patterns of sun, moon and stars. A stock of ancient, desolate atmosphere wafts from the curved bow.

  A fist-sized gemstone, the gemstone seems to have hidden a vast starry sky, and the twinkling stars flow slowly. The gemstone releases dazzling light, and a thread of invisible heavenly energy is slowly absorbed into the gemstone, making the starlight inside the gemstone even more dazzling.

  "Sky Splitting Sword, five hundred years ago, the divine sword of Ba Gua Tian Shi Lie Yun! The sword aura is too sharp, Lie Yun relied on it to conquer the world back then, almost no one could rival him! Unfortunately, when Lie Yun broke through the Nine Palaces Heaven boundary, he went mad and his soul was destroyed. However, the sword spirit of Sky Splitting Sword still exists. Anyone who can tame the sword spirit will immediately be able to wield the Sky Splitting Sword once their soul and the sword spirit merge, increasing their power exponentially, making it easy as pie!"

  "Daylight Bow, back then the Southern Barbarian's generation saint 'Hao', gathered many spiritual treasures of the Southern Barbarians, killed two dragons, and combined the power of many heavenly masters to refine it! The three small arrows of sun, moon and stars contain the power of the sun, moon and stars. Shooting with Daylight Bow, its power is so great that only those who have shot it know!"

  "The Tianyuan Pearl can gather the primordial energy of heaven and earth. Any cultivator who possesses it can gather this energy much faster, whether in cultivation or recovery. The speed is increased several times! After our sect's many appraisers have examined it, they believe that the Tianyuan Pearl has other mysterious uses, unfortunately, our Chen family has not yet discovered its greater purpose! The Tianyuan Pearl comes from a meteorite from outside the heavens, twenty years ago, a shooting star fell to the middle earth, the shooting star shattered, and in the center was hidden this Tianyuan Pearl!"

  Chen Yirong loudly introduced it, and amidst the murmurs of the many heavenly scholars below, she spoke again: "The Split Heaven Sword and the Sun Glow Bow are priced at 1,000 top-grade yuan stones. The highest bidder gets them! Of course, if you have a spiritual treasure of equivalent grade to exchange, after we appraise it, if it's indeed an equivalent spiritual treasure, you can also exchange for it!"

  However, Tianyuan Pearl will not be exchanged for yuan stone, only a legendary spiritual treasure known throughout the world would we consider exchanging it for!

  As soon as this was said, the murmurs below grew even louder, and various Tian Shi argued incessantly about the three spiritual treasures displayed by Lingbao Pavilion, seemingly never getting tired of it.

  "Sky Splitting Sword, Sun Radiance Bow, Heaven Origin Pearl... the Chen family is truly wealthy and extravagant. Such precious spiritual treasures are actually being put on display for sale! No wonder every Spiritual Treasure Conference can attract experts from all sides, traveling far and wide to attend!" Bai Qingya's face was filled with astonishment as she whispered.

  "Adding the spiritual treasures exhibited by those people in Lingbao Hall, the number of spiritual treasures gathered at this Spiritual Treasure Conference is probably more than what a large family possesses! The Chen Family is really bold, with so many spiritual treasures, aren't they afraid of being robbed?" Ji Changkong was also secretly amazed, his face full of surprise.

  "All parties have gathered here, the Chen family is powerful in the Water Cloud Country, and with the support of the Water Cloud Imperial Family, although the world is vast, there are only a few people who dare to openly rob at the Lingbao Conference. Those who dare to come are all high-ranking officials, famous figures in the world, and they would not stoop to doing such things, so you can rest assured." Bai Qingya smiled slightly, thinking that Ji Changkong was worrying unnecessarily.

  Hehe! Hehe! Hahaha!

  At this moment, a maniacal laughter that sounded like the wailing of ghosts and wolves suddenly came from above the Lingbao Hall. Five black shadows were shrouded in darkness under the sunlight, and they abruptly stopped in mid-air above the Lingbao Hall.

  Five people burst into loud laughter, the sound piercing to the extreme, then suddenly joined hands, a terrifying yuan force wave like a mountain collapse erupted from the central area of the five, as if an evil dragon was drilling into the ground, rushing straight towards the Lingbao Grand Hall below!
