Chapter 2977: The Chaos Divine Earth’s Assistance
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Duan Ling Tian did not have many prominent Celestial Crystals. In fact, he had used up almost all his prominent Celestial Crystals after he bought the Origin Stones in the Solitary Nation’s West Lane Town. Nevertheless, he still had a large number of mediocre Celestial Crystals. When he was in the borderlands, he had killed the Blissful Sect’s Nine Palaces Celestial Duke and Basic Celestial King along with the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect’s Ten Directions Celestial Duke, gaining the accumulated wealth of the three individuals. The collective wealth of the three individuals was more than 20 million mediocre Celestial Crystals!
‘10,0000 prominent Celestial Crystals and 20 million mediocre Celestial Crystals… Is this genius sectless cultivator from the Supporting Fall Nation using this opportunity to offload all the mediocre Celestial Crystals he has?’ The grey-clad old man standing on the stage was shocked when he looked inside the Spatial Ring that Duan Ling Tian handed over and saw a large number of mediocre Celestial Crystals. He knew very few people in the Southern Heaven Territory had 20 million mediocre Celestial Crystals. After all, the grade of mediocre Celestial Crystals was too low. It did not cross his mind that beyond the Southern Heaven Territory’s formation barrier, there existed a place called the borderlands where they only had primitive Crystal Veins. These primitive Crystals Veins could only produce mediocre Celestial Crystals, at most. Although there were prominent Celestial Crystals in the borderlands, they were few in number and mostly came from the central area.
Duan Ling Tian might have amassed a huge fortune in the borderlands, but he only had a few thousand prominent Celestial Crystals among the many mediocre Celestial Crystals and primitive Celestial Crystals.“Brother Duan, I truly admire you… How did you gather 25 million mediocre Celestial Crystals?” Huang Jia Long looked at Duan Ling Tian in awe.
Hints of curiosity could be seen in Huang Yuan Fei and Old Mo’s eyes as well when they looked at Duan Ling Tian.
Duan Ling Tian replied, “I obtained all those mediocre Celestial Crystals in the borderlands… Prominent Celestial Crystals are few and far in between in the borderlands.”
After Duan Ling Tian obtained the main branch from the Divine Tree of Life, the Imperial auction officially ended.
Naturally, everyone present did not know the odd-looking branch was a main branch from the Divine Tree of Life. Even if they were told that it was the main branch from the Divine Tree of Life, they would not know its value or what it was. In fact, not many people in the Spirit Overarching Heaven knew about the Divine Tree of Life, let alone the people from the Southern Heaven Territory.
After the auction ended, Duan Ling Tian and Liu Guang Lin followed Huang Jia Long, Huang Yuan Fei, and Old Mo back to the Solitary Nation’s Imperial Palace.
During the journey, He Feng, the Commander of the Solitary Nation’s Imperial Army, caught with them. He did not beat around the bush and asked with eyes that shone with curiosity, “City Governor Huang, how did you do it? Those people from the Moran Nation and the East Ming Nation aren’t simpletons… They wouldn’t give up on bidding for the Golden Nematodes at the eleventh hour for no good reason…”“Commander He, are you the one who’s curious, or is it him?” Huang Yuan Fei placed heavy emphasis on the word ‘him’.
He Feng replied, “His Majesty is curious as well. He had sent me a Voice Transmission asking about it… However, I’m also curious… After all, the people from the Moran Nation and the East Ming Nation had specifically come to the Solitary Nation for the pair of Golden Nematodes. How could they give up at the crucial moment? Anyone with eyes would be able to tell that you’ve done something…”
“It’s nothing…” Huang Yuan Fei replied indifferently, “I only told them I have a King Grade Celestial Alchemist who can successfully refine two Profound Golden Pills. If they cede the pair of Golden Nematodes to me, I’ll let them bid for one of the Profound Golden Pill… That’s how I convince them to give up on bidding for the Golden Nematodes.” He did not plan to keep his proposition to the Moran Nation and the East Ming Nation a secret. He knew he would not be able to keep a secret anyway. After ten days, either Moran Nation or the East Ming Nation would obtain the Profound Golden Pill. Whoever failed to obtain the Profound Golden Pill would certainly not help them keep the matter a secret.
“A King Grade Celestial Alchemist?!” He Feng’s heart skipped a beat upon hearing Huang Yuan Fei’s reply. He truly did not expect this answer. Although the Emperor of the Solitary Nation could also employ a King Grade Celestial Alchemist to refine the Profound Golden Pill, it would cost a fortune to do so.
The reason the Emperors of the East Ming Nation and the Moran Nation were so insistent on obtaining two Golden Nematodes was to increase the success rate of refining the Profound Golden Pill since they only planned to employ a Duke Grade Celestial Alchemist to refine the pills.
“The Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation is truly generous and farsighted!” He Feng exclaimed as he looked at Duan Ling Tian. He was under the impression that the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation was willing to spend so much just so he could help Duan Ling Tian become a peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestial before the opening of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. In his opinion, the Emperors of the East Ming Nation and the Moran Nation were clearly not as farsighted as the Emperor of the Supporting Fall Nation. He would never expect, even in his wildest dreams, that the person who would be refining the Profound Golden Pill was Duan Ling Tian, not a King Grade Celestial Alchemist!
Once the group arrived at the Solitary Nation’s Imperial Palace, He Feng bade the remaining people farewell, and the others returned to their respective rooms in the palace.
“Little Tian, please let me know if there’s anything else you need to refine the Profound Golden Pill… I’ll do everything in my power to obtain it for you!” Huang Yuan Fei said before parting with Duan Ling Tian. Although he trusted Duan Ling Tian’s ability, he still felt a slight pressure when he thought about the possibility of Duan Ling Tian failing to produce the two Profound Golden Pills after ten days. If that happened, he would undoubtedly offend the Celestial Kings from the East Ming Nation and the Moran Nation.
“Alright. Don’t worry, Uncle Huang. I won’t let you down!” Duan Ling Tian said before he returned to his room to refine the two Profound Golden Pills.
Duan Ling Tian was the only one who knew he was not an ordinary prominent Celestial Alchemist. Most Prominent Grade Celestial Alchemists would refine pills with their prominent Celestial Fires, but he refined pills with his Chaos Divine Flame! Although the Chaos Divine Flame was equivalent to a prominent Celestial Fire, it was far superior to prominent Celestial Fires. In fact, the Chaos Divine Flame was comparable to superior Celestial Fires with a higher grade.
At this moment, the Profound Divine Metal suddenly chuckled before he said, “Little boy, didn’t you promise to help the lad if he obtains the main branch from the Divine Tree of Life?” Based on the words ‘little boy’, it was clear he was talking to the Chaos Divine Earth. The Profound Divine Metal continued to say, “Although with the lad’s current alchemy skills and Old Fire’s assistance, his success rate of refining the Profound Golden Pill is quite high, there’s still a small chance of failure. However, with your assistance, it would be a guaranteed success…”
“Hm?” Duan Ling Tian’s eyes lit up as soon as he heard the Profound Divine Metal’s words. Based on the Profound Divine Metal’s words, he could infer that the Chaos Divine Earth would be of great help to refine the Profound Golden Pill. Not only that but with the Chaos Divine Earth’s assistance, he was sure to succeed!
How could Duan Ling Tian not be happy? Although he was confident about refining the Profound Golden Pill, his success was not guaranteed. He was only about 80% to 90% confident that he would succeed.
When Duan Ling Tian thought about the pressure Huang Yuan Fei had to be feeling now, he took a deep breath and prepared to ask for the Chaos Divine Earth’s help.
However, before Duan Ling Tian could speak, the Chaos Divine Earth said, “Hmph! I don’t need a reminder! I remember what I said!” Then, it said to Duan Ling Tian, “Lad, take out your cauldron.”
Although Duan Ling Tian was unsure about how Chaos Divine Earth would be able to help, he obediently took out the prominent Celestial Cauldron. As soon as he took the cauldron out, he could clearly sense a mustard energy from the Chaos Divine Earth in his right arm shooting toward the cauldron before merging with it.
Whoosh!
The cauldron began to shake as it emitted a mustard light.
The Chaos Divine Flame spoke up at this moment. “The Chaos Divine Earth can merge with a Celestial Alchemist’s cauldron. It can help one to refine pills and increase one’s success rate as well… With help from me and the Chaos Divine Earth, there’s no doubt you’ll be able to successfully refine the Profound Golden Pill.”
“Let’s begin,” the Chaos Divine Flame said again when he saw Duan Ling Tian lost in his thoughts.
Duan Ling Tian regained his senses and began to prepare to refine the pills. The Profound Golden Pill was one of the most difficult to refine prominent Celestial Pills; its refinement process was incredibly complex. Nevertheless, it was as easy as breathing to Duan Ling Tian. After all, his skills were already comparable to a King Grade Celestial Alchemist.
…
Meanwhile, the people from the East Ming Nation and the Moran Nation finally learned from their respective leaders why they did not bid for the pair of Golden Nematodes.
“The Supporting Fall Nation employed a King Grade Celestial Alchemist to refine Profound Golden Pills?”
“Wow, what a generous emperor!”
“I think there’s more than meets the eyes… I suspect it’s the King Grade Celestial Alchemist from the Flying Tiger Clan who’s helping Duan Ling Tian.”
