Chapter 49 - 49 Astonishing Harvest
The gains this time were very generous.
Although there were only two items, the items dropped by a ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level martial artist after their death were often high-quality items. The value was astonishing. There was even a certain chance of dropping a higher-level Qi Martial Level item.
Xiao Shi was looking forward to this.
After all, this kill seemed easy. In fact, it still took a lot of effort. It’s not that easy. Especially in terms of the consumption of items. He had completely used up the Black Ink Stone and the Ling Jian Grass. There was only one more Swamp Formation left.
Although the items had been consumed, Xiao Shi believed that all of this was worth it. The value of the gains this time would definitely be higher than the lost items.
Immediately, his gaze focused on the item. Information about the item quickly appeared in front of him.
[Name: Night Beauty]
[Type: Treasures of Heaven and Earth]
[Grade: Martial Entry-Level]
[Introduction: Night Beauty is also called Moonlight. It’s a rare treasure. It’s a green cylinder with stems and tendrils. Four flowers bloom. It’s in the shape of an advanced butterfly. It’s either white or pink with light green patterns. The flower plate is fragrant. The flowers bloom at night and don’t close until dawn.]
[Remark: As its name suggests, night and day will be very different.]
…
Xiao Shi’s eyes lit up. Heavenly treasures were what he lacked at the moment. And this heavenly treasure was different from the previous heavenly treasures.
This heavenly treasure was similar to Night Frost Dew and was a natural treasure that could obtain additional improvements at night! This would be extremely compatible with Night Tiger. Perhaps using this natural treasure would not only allow him to achieve the fifth Body Tempering, but also increase Night Tiger’s cultivation efficiency.
This made Xiao Shi very excited. After all, Night Tiger’s cultivation could not speed up. And Night Frost Dew was too expensive. He could not afford it at all.
If this natural treasure could speed up Night Tiger’s cultivation, then the value of this heavenly treasure alone was completely comparable to the Black Ink Stone and Ling Jian Grass that had been consumed previously.
“As expected, the products produced by Martial Entry-Level Nine are definitely top-notch!” Xiao Shi was very excited.
This first item gave him a big surprise. He couldn’t wait to look at the second item. The second item was no longer a heavenly treasure. Instead, it was a black mask.
[Name: Martial Emperor Mask]
[Type: Mask]
[Grade: Martial Entry-Level]
[Introduction: It’s the symbolic emperor outfit of the previous Martial Emperors. It’s said that after gathering the full Emperor Set, one will have the right to ascend the throne and become the new Martial Emperor.]
[Remark 1: The Martial Emperor Set is divided into eight parts. Each part corresponds to a martial arts realm.]
[Remark 2: Only the strongest who has reached the corresponding martial arts realm can wear the Emperor Set.]
[Remark 3: The Martial Emperor Mask can change one’s temperament and form a wisp of the aura of the Emperor. It can ignore all aura suppression and is immune to all poisonous gases and miasma.]
[Remark 4: The Martial Emperor Mask can hide all the aura.]
…
Xiao Shi looked at the information that appeared in his vision. His entire mind was already in turmoil.
The items that dropped this time was really a little scary!
“It’s actually one of the components of the Emperor Set!!”
Although Xiao Shi did not know if Martial Emperor was the highest existence in this world, through the information in the note, he could infer that the martial arts realm of this world had at least eight realms.
After all, the Emperor Set had a total of eight parts, and each part corresponded to a martial arts realm. The current mask corresponded to the first realm of martial arts, the Martial Entry-Level.
“In that case, in every realm, the Emperor Set is almost the best item!”
Xiao Shi’s heart burned. The value of this item was too shocking! It far exceeded all the items that had dropped before. To be able to drop an item of this quality, his luck could be said to have exploded this time.
If he could gather the entire Emperor Set in the future…
Just the thought of it made him excited.
However, it was quite difficult to put on the Emperor Set. Only the strongest in that realm could wear it. The strongest was not only the strongest in a region. It was very likely the strongest in the entire world.
This was very difficult. If he only became the strongest Martial Entry-Level expert in the Seven Star Province, he would definitely be able to do it as long as he reached the ninth Body Tempering.
But in the entire world, nine Body Temperings might not be the strongest. After all, there were people in the world who had undergone nine Body Tempering. In order to become the strongest Martial Entry-Level expert in this world, just nine Body Tempering sessions were clearly not enough.
This made Xiao Shi realize that he still needed more items that could increase his strength. If he had not obtained the Martial Emperor’s Mask, he would not have thought of pursuing the strongest. But now that he had obtained it, if he could not wear it, it would be meaningless.
Becoming the strongest Martial Entry-Level naturally became his goal.
“I need more items!”
Xiao Shi could not wait to destroy the surrounding evil forces. However, he still suppressed the urge in his heart. No matter what, it was better to break through to the ninth stage of the Martial Entry-Level first.
“Now, I’ll undergo the fifth Body Tempering!”
Xiao Shi put the Martial Emperor’s Mask into his storage bag and began to undergo Body Tempering through the natural treasure in his hand, Night Beauty. He was looking forward to how much faster his cultivation of Night Tiger could be after this Body Tempering.
At the same time, the news of the death of the two bounty hunters quickly spread to the Senluo Organization through the spies in Golden Cloud City.
As a deacon of the Senluo Organization, Cai Zuo immediately made an announcement in the organization the moment he received the news. “From today onwards, all bounty hunters are forbidden to enter Golden Cloud City!”
He already had this plan the last time. However, he still wanted to try one last time. Now, two ninth-stage Martial Entry-Level bounty hunters had also died in Golden Cloud City. He had completely realized that Golden Cloud City had completely become a restricted area for bounty hunters.
He could not let other bounty hunters enter. Entering would be tempting fate!
At the same time, the Genius Bounty List issued by the Senluo Organization also changed. In second place, it had already become an unnamed night patroller, second only to Chu Daoxi, who was ranked first.
Although he was ranked second, his mysteriousness caused this ‘unnamed night patroller’ to attract widespread attention in the entire Seven Star Province.
Everyone was shocked and puzzled.
Although the Senluo Organization’s Genius Bounty List was not a list that represented glory, those who could be on the rankings were also proof and recognition of their strength. All along, those who could enter the Genius Bounty List were famous.
...
This was the first time such a mysterious person with no specific name had appeared. Furthermore, he was ranked second.
Even the Feiyuan Palace was shocked. For a moment, not only did the Senluo Organization want to know who this anonymous night patroller was, but all the large and small factions in the Seven Star Province wanted to know.
