Chapter 636: Do You Want to Die? (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
From the beginning to the end, Xiao Shi was covered in a black cloak. They could only know that the other party was a Martial Demon Realm expert of the Great Martial Empire through the taboo on his body, but they could not think of who the other party was.
In their impression, there was no such powerful Martial Demon Realm cultivator in the Great Wu Empire.
Xiao Shi ignored everyone’s guesses about his identity. As he led everyone out of this checkpoint, he checked the items dropped after killing the Sage Tree. This item was extremely valuable to him. This was because this was an item that had dropped after he killed the Sage.
There were not many Sage Realm treasures to begin with. Even in the Myriad Treasure Pagoda, there were only three Sage Realm treasures. After he exchanged for the Heavenly Mystery Disc Fragment back then, the current Myriad Treasure Pagoda only had two Sage Realm treasures that could be exchanged.
In addition, there were very few Sages on the Tianwu Continent, and Sages were difficult to kill. Even if Xiao Shi could kill it and drop items, it would be very difficult to kill a Sage. It could be said that every Sage Realm treasure was extremely important. It was already very difficult to have many items in a realm like in the past.
Not every Sage in the Tianwu Continent had a Sage Realm treasure. Sages with Sage Realm treasures were extremely rare. There was even less of a need to mention the Daolord Realm treasures above the Sage Realm. That was already a powerful divine artifact that could affect a faction.
For example, the declining Great Wu Empire. Before Xiao Shi retrieved the Eye of the Emperor Judgment, the strongest treasure in the Great Wu Empire was only a Daolord-level treasure.
Xiao Shi took a deep breath. Under the intense anticipation in his heart, he looked at the item in his hand seriously.
[Name: Dao Foundation]
[Type: Foundation Stone for Dao Creation]
[Grade: Sage]
[Introduction: This is the foundation and prerequisite for creating the Dao.]
[Remark: With a Dao Foundation, you will have the chance to create a Dao.]
The introduction of the entire item was very short. However, its use and value were extremely shocking.
Xiao Shi knew that the key to breaking through from the Sage Realm to the Daolord Realm was mainly to grasp a complete ‘Dao’! However, the “Dao” in the Tianwu Continent was limited. Therefore, there were often conflicts between Sages.
This was the information related to the Daolord that Xiao Shi had obtained when he was in the demigod land. However, he knew too little about Dao. Therefore, it was impossible to evaluate the true value of this item through its specific function.
But from other aspects, he could see how powerful and extraordinary this item was. According to the pattern of the first kill, if there were no items that dropped above one’s level, then the item that dropped would definitely be the highest quality item in this realm.
This meant, this Dao Foundation was the top among all Sage-level items. This reminded Xiao Shi of his first kill in the Martial Demon Realm. At that time, the item that dropped was Refined Hand.
Although this item was at the Martial Demon level, its value and use were completely comparable to a Sage-level treasure. The Dao Foundation that dropped this time was the same.
Although it was a Sage-level item, its value was very likely comparable to a Daolord-level treasure. After all, this treasure was related to the advancement of a Sage to the Daolord realm. As one of the three upper realms of martial arts, the number of people who could step into the Daolord Realm could be counted on one hand no matter which era it was.
Most martial artists’ end point in the Martial Dao was at most the Sage Realm. Even a genius like Xiang Zizhen did not hope to break through to the Upper Three Realms. Of course, Xiao Shi still needed to understand more about the specific function and effects of this item.
However, it was still a little far from him. The most important thing for him now was to refine this special area as soon as possible and break through to the Sage Realm through this special area.
Everyone followed Xiao Shi all the way. Apart from the Evil, they did not encounter any danger along the way. After they advanced for a long time, they finally arrived at the end of the checkpoint.
From a distance, they all saw Chu Tong in front of them. The other party did not move out of this checkpoint but stayed here to wait. This made everyone’s expressions darken. They knew that Chu Tong stayed here for the exclusive item of this level.
As they approached, they all saw these exclusive items were blocked by a barrier. No wonder the other party was still here and did not leave. He probably wanted to wait for them to clear the level and take these exclusive items before leaving.
Everyone’s faces were filled with anger. They were extremely angry at Chu Tong’s actions this time! However, Chu Tong did not feel guilty at all. Seeing that everyone had rushed over so quickly, he was very surprised. Especially when he realized that only three of these people had died.
This shocked and confused him. He originally thought that even if this group of people could clear the level, only one or two would definitely be alive in the end. In the end, so many people survived. This surprised him.
“Well done.” He praised in a high and mighty tone. Although he was surprised, this was a good thing for him. The more people who survived, the more help he could obtain.
As for everyone’s emotions, he did not care. These people all had taboos left behind by the prince. No matter how dissatisfied they were with him, they could only assist him and could not compete with him. Moreover, he felt that what he had done previously was reasonable.
As the only candidate for the Great Wu Empire to refine this special area, he should conserve his strength for the final competition. He did not think that there was anything wrong with his previous actions.
As everyone arrived, the barriers that enveloped the exclusive items slowly dissipated. This meant that they had successfully passed this checkpoint. This round was the same as the previous round. The number of exclusive items after clearing it was mainly determined by the number of people who entered the round.
Because this checkpoint contained two different eras, the exclusive items here were divided into two batches. The left was an exclusive item from the Star Era, and the right was an exclusive item from the Youyue Era.
There were many of them. The moment the barrier dissipated, Chu Tong had already turned around with a smile and walked towards these exclusive items. As he had arrived here before everyone else, he had already observed these exclusive items. He had already chosen the exclusive items he wanted and was not prepared to take only one.
He felt that since he had already reached the last round, he naturally needed to take a few more exclusive items. Only then could he have a greater advantage in the competition for the Holy Land later.
However, just as he moved, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him. “You’re not qualified to take the exclusive items here.”
Chu Tong stopped in his tracks. He turned around and looked at the person covered in a black cloak whose figure could not be seen clearly. He wondered if he had heard wrongly. “What did you say?”
“You’re not qualified to take the exclusive items here.” Xiao Shi repeated coldly. This person did not use any strength from the beginning to the end. As soon as he saw the Sage Tree, he abandoned them. Now, he actually had the cheek to want to take the exclusive item here?
Chu Tong narrowed his eyes. He stared at Xiao Shi carefully. After sensing that there was a taboo left behind by the prince on the other party, his gaze turned cold. “Do you know what you’re talking about? Long before we entered this special area, the prince had already explained very clearly that your goal in coming here is to assist me. Even if I take away all the exclusive items here, it’s only right. You have to understand one thing. The distribution of these exclusive items is up to me, not you.”
After saying that, he ignored Xiao Shi and continued to walk towards the exclusive item in front of him.
“Do you want to die?”
