Chapter 671: Chapter 671 – The Gold Jade Treasure Basket and the Great Dao Source Stone
The first mission Heavenly Sage Zhen Yan chose for Zhou Xuanji and the others was an exploration mission.
Their destination was a new universe in chaos that only had some newborn Chaos Demon Gods who were living in a complete state of ignorance. There weren’t any world laws there.
Apart from exploring, they had to find the Great Dao Source Stone.
As long as they had the Great Dao Source Stone, they would have that universe in their control.
Zhou Xuanji asked curiously, opening his eyes, “This mission doesn’t seem that hard. Why did you come to me in advance?”
Nangon Jiayin replied with a mysterious smile hanging on her lips, “Do you want to get the Great Dao Source Stone?”
Zhou Xuanji furrowed his brow and stated, “If we don’t hand in the Great Dao Source Stone, we will not be able to to complete the mission.”
What does this lady want!?
His first reaction was that Nangong Jiayin wanted to make a scapegoat out of him.
“Don’t worry, I have a treasure. It can copy the Great Dao Source Stone. At that time, I will occupy them while you will copy the Great Dao Source Stone. Because if I do that, they will be suspicious of me.”
Nangong Jiayin smiled, hearing Zhou Xuanji’s curiosity.
What kind of treasure can copy something!?
Zhou Xuanji then asked, “Why did you choose me instead of others?”
If Nangong Jiayin couldn’t give him a satisfactory reason, he wouldn’t agree.
There was no love for no reason in this world.
“It’s very simple! Your cultivation is the lowest. Furthermore, it’s over one and a half star behind us. At that time, everyone will hand you the Great Dao Source Stone because it’s useless to you.”
Nangong Jiayin raised her hand and thrust it past Zhou Xianji’s ears, placing her palm on the tree behind him. She took the stance of a man intercepting a girl.
Zhou Xuanji was speechless. He immediately stated, “Just talk, don’t move!”
Nangong Jiayin smiled as she took away her hand and said, “It’s settled then!?”
She then took out a golden basket of normal size. It looked quite simple and ordinary.
“This Jade Gold Treasure Basket. I’m giving you in advance. Don’t take it out if you are not using it,” Nangong Jiayin said with a smile.
Zhou Xuanji took the Jade Gold Treasure Basket.
He asked, “And what about my reward?”
Nangong Jiayin broke into giggling as she replied, “Naturally, it’s the Great Dao Source Stone. It will be divided in half. When you break through to Dao-Treading Saint Realm, the half Great Dao Source Stone will be a treasure.”
Holding the Jade Gold Treasure Basket, Zhou Xuanji couldn’t help but be moved.
Finally, he agreed to this, putting the Jade Gold Treasure Basket into the Supreme Storage.
The two chatted for a while before Nangong Jiayin took her leave.
Zhou Xuanji didn’t go back but kept waiting instead.
Cheng Jiu hurried over and respectfully asked, “Senior, what can I do for you?”
He pretended that he didn’t see what just happened. He didn’t dare to pay attention to who Zhou Xuanji was in contact with.
Even if the Longbow Divine Range wanted to keep Zhou Xuanji, they couldn’t control Zhou Xuanji’s social life.
“Does Origin City have a place to check information?” asked Zhou Xuanji. He wanted to look up information about the Jade Gold Treasure Basket and Great Dao Source Stone.
Cheng Jiu nodded and immediately led the way.
…
…
After half a month…
When Zhou Xuanji returned to the Yu Family mansion, he had already learned everything about the Jade Gold Treasure Basket and the Great Dao Source Stone.
The Jade Gold Treasure Basket was a legendary treasure that could replicate anything. There was only one Jade Gold Treasure Basked in the entire Kunlun Origin Court.
The Great Dao Source Stone provided assistance in cultivation to Dao-Treading Saints and Dao Ancestors.
This was also the reason why many universes were invaded and plundered.
However, most of the Great Dao Source Stones were controlled, or one needed to spend a lot of merit points to buy them.
No wonder Nangong Jiayin was so moved.
Back at the courtyard, he saw the Old Beggar and Xu Qing meditating under a tree.
Xu Qing’s comatose state was nothing to the Kunlun Origin Court. Yu Shenzhong had already helped collect all the required medicinal materials.
So recently, there was a big smile hanging on Old Beggar’s face.
Noticing Zhou Xuanji, he immediately rushed and asked, smiling, “Xuanji, where did you go to cultivate recently?”
Zhou Xuanji, glancing at him, replying, “Origin City Dao Tower. Don’t ask me for any merit points, I won’t have anything for your precious apprentice.”
The Old Beggar glared at him and rebuked, “Will a teacher show favor to one disciple and not favor the others?”
Zhou Xuanji shrugged his shoulder with a smile and didn’t justify his answer.
Zhou Xuanji just took a step to walk into his house but he was stopped by the Old Beggar.
“You are now a Void Boundary War God. You can go back and conquer the Heavenly Law Universe and destroy that destiny. You don’t want to see the universe you were born in collapse, do you?” asked the Old Beggar earnestly.
Zhou Xuanji thought for a moment before nodding.
But this matter had to wait as he had to complete the first mission of the Void Boundary War God.
The master and apprentice chatted for a few moments before they bid each other goodbye.
Time was merciless.
They could no longer be as closed as they used to be.
Zhou Xuanji didn’t hold any grudges either. After all, the Old Beggar did teach him. He was already doing the biggest favor by taking the Old Beggar and his apprentice.
He also had his own road to walk.
For the next three months, Zhou Xuanji was busy teaching the disciples of Emperor Sword Court.
However, the Void Boundary War God’s imprint on his ID card suddenly started giving off divine will’s fluctuations.
The mission was about to start!
He immediately went to the Vocation Palace.
The Vocation Palace in every Origin City could be used as a teleportation point.
When he came to the Vocation palace, he found Nangong Jiayin, Ye Jun, and Xu Huang waiting for him.
“Brother Xuanji, you are finally here. Let’s go!” Ye Jun said with a smile.
Immediately after, they teleported to the Void Boundary Palace to the teleportation array and joined the other teammates.
Under Ye Jun’s leadership, they quickly made their way to the floor where Heavenly Sage Zhen Yan was at.
At this moment, Heavenly Sage Zhen Yan was standing in front of the railing at the edge of the tower, waiting quietly.
Noticing Zhou Xuanji and the others’ arrival, he immediately started speaking, “Your first mission is to get the Great Dao Source Stone. The Chaos Demon Gods of this new universe aren’t that easy. You will have to be careful.”
Ye Jun nodded and asked, “Heavenly Sage, don’t worry. We will definitely finish the mission.”
The other teammates also nodded their agreement.
Next, Heavenly Sage Zhen Yan waived his right hand as a purplish glowing black hole appeared beside him. He gestured to Zhou Xuanji and the others to step into it.
Ye Jun walked in first, followed by others.
When Zhou Xuanji was about to step into the black hole, Heavenly Sage Zhen Yan’s voice rang in his ears, “If you can become a Dao-Treading Saint before coming back, I will give you a great opportunity. Don’t let me down. At the opportune moment, you can also swallow the Great Dao Source Stone.”
Zhou Xuanji was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to stop, Nangong Jiayin pushed him in.
Zhou Xuanji furrowed his brow, walking through the time and space tunnel.
What did Heavenly Sage Zhen Yan mean?
Can I take the Great Dao Source Stone!?
Is it a test for me?
Or is it a hidden mission?
“Shouldn’t our team have a name?” Ye Jun’s voice echoed from the front, getting everyone’s approval.
Everyone immediately began to discuss the name.
Zhou Xuanji, on the other hand, was still thinking about what Heavenly Sage Zhen Yan said.
That’s not right!
This is definitely a trap.
Heavenly Sage Zhen Yan said that everything is for the team.
Now he asks me to break through to the Dao-Treading Saint Realm. And if I can, I can take the Great Dao Source Stone!
Isn’t he just testing me about my choice, whether I will choose the team or myself!?
After having figured it out, Zhou Xuanji relaxed and no longer thought about it.
