Chapter 478 – Ten Thousand Year Mysterious Ice Essence

TL : GoldenLung

Qian Lei took the metal box and said, “This sounds awesome. Boss, how much does this cost? Can I afford it?”

Lan Xuanyu replied indifferently, “It’s not expensive, four purple emblems, a gift for you.”

Qian Lei’s eyes widened instantly. Not only him, but everyone else stared at Lan Xuanyu in shock. Lan Mengqin blurted out, “You didn’t rob the Exchange Center, did you?”

Lan Xuanyu rolled his eyes. “Do you think I’m dumb? Do you want it or not? If not, give it back.”

“Yes, yes, yes.” Qian Lei hurriedly said and pounced forward to hug Lan Xuanyu. He even wanted to kiss Lan Xuanyu’s face, but Lan Xuanyu stopped him by slapping him to the side.

“Calm down!” Lan Xuanyu snapped.

Qian Lei’s eyes were heart shaped as he hugged the metal box tightly in his arms. “Boss, you are my guiding light, the guide to move forward. I love you.”

“Get lost, you can leave now.” Lan Xuanyu’s mouth twitched.

“No, I’m not leaving. I want to see if you love me or them more and look at what they got.” Qian Lei’s face was beaming. He would probably welcome it even if Lan Xuanyu were to beat him up.

Lan Xuanyu picked up a second box and handed it to Liu Feng. It was a wooden box. “Frenzie, this is a ten thousand-year Sky Azure Ivy. It’s a little similar to the Ivy of Life; they’re both top-notch immortal herbs. The difference is that one increases life force, while the other increases the toughness of one’s body. One is to help you break through to four-ring and stabilize your realm, while the other will strengthen your body. The task I will assign to you today requires you to be tougher.”

“Xuanyu, this is too precious.” Liu Feng did not reach out to take it. He could tell from Qian Lei’s previous gift that Lan Xuanyu’s gift was extremely valuable.

Lan Mengqin couldn’t help but interrupt again. “Where did you get so many emblems ? And how much is this?”

Lan Xuanyu said, “It’s about the same price as Fatty’s. As for the origin of the emblems, I’ll tell you later.” As he spoke, he stuffed the wooden box into Liu Feng’s hands.

Liu Feng held the box and lowered his head slightly. He didn’t have Qian Lei’s exaggerated reaction, but his eyes were already red.

Lan Xuanyu smiled and patted him on the shoulder before picking up the next box. It was a circular metal box and he handed it to Yuanen Huihui. “Huihui, this is for you. I chose this for you and it’s a Heaven and Earth treasure that is very suitable for you. It’s a ten thousand-year Piercing Gaze Dew. The Piercing Gaze Dew can increase your eyesight to a great extent and is also quite helpful to your soul power. It should be able to increase your soul power by one rank and allow you to be one step closer to rank 60. Also, your Eye of Samsara will be nourished by it, so its effectiveness should improve. Take it and absorb it immediately when you get back. Oh right, Frenzie, Huihui, both of you should go to the Sea God Lake when absorbing the Heaven and Earth treasure. Absorbing it in the Sea God Lake will yield twice the results for half the effort. It can increase its medicinal effect and when you need life energy to replenish your body, there should be enough. We can’t be stingy on this, otherwise, we’ll be letting this good stuff down.”

“Thank you, big brother Xuanyu.” Yuanen Huihui did not stand on ceremony and accepted it excitedly.

At this moment, Lan Xuanyu picked up a wooden box and stuffed it into her hand. “This is for you. Your twin Martial Souls aren’t of the same type, but they both require a strong spiritual power to support them. Inside is a perfectly conserved ten thousand-year Golden Sun Flower. It can increase your spiritual power by quite a bit and stabilize your Spiritual Sea. Just like them, absorb it at the Sea God Lake. Go tonight and improve as soon as possible.”

Lan Mengqin didn’t say a word. She lowered her head and looked at the wooden box in her hand, her heart filled with complex emotions.

Lan Mengqin didn’t say anything this time because she knew about this Heaven and Earth treasure. It was a famous existence! It was one of the top Heaven and Earth treasures.

Lastly, Lan Xuanyu looked at Dong Qianqiu, and she was also looking at him. Her beautiful eyes were filled with anticipation and a hint of threat at the same time. It was as if she was saying, ‘If mine is worse than theirs… humph! Be careful!’

Lan Xuanyu handed her a jade box and said, “Ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice Essence, go and drink it tonight. I’ll need your strength tomorrow.”

Dong Qianqiu’s delicate body shook when she heard the words “ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice Essence”. Of course, she knew what it was. It was almost the pinnacle of all ice-attribute treasures.

Legend has it that there was once a lazy Ice Silkworm that lived in a place with ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice Essence. It ate, slept, and ate them every day. After an unknown amount of time, it actually cultivated to the legendary one million-year level and was reborn. That was one of the most ordinary types of soul beast!

Ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice Essence, there were actually some still existing ? She had never even seen a thousand-year one, let alone a ten thousand-year one!

Ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice was already considered a Heaven and Earth treasure, and a ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice Essence was not inferior to a one hundred-thousand-year Heaven and Earth treasure.

“Jealous, I’m jealous! Lan Xuanyu.” Lan Mengqin was truly a little jealous. She also had ice attributes and obviously knew what a ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice Essence meant.

Lan Xuanyu coughed. “There’s a limit in number. I’ll give it to you next time. Qianqiu is a pure ice attribute soul master, so I prioritized her.”

“Hmph.” Lan Mengqin pouted.

“I’ll buy it for you when I have the money.” Qian Lei quickly went over.

“You? When you’ll have money, how long in the future would that be ?” Lan Mengqin said exasperatedly.

Qian Lei’s eyes flickered. “Very soon. Trust me.”

Lan Mengqin: “No need. Why would I want your things?”

Qian Lei chuckled. “We’ll talk about it again. We’ll talk about it when I can do it.”

Lan Mengqin didn’t take his words to heart. Although she didn’t know how many emblems Lan Xuanyu’s ten thousand-year Mysterious Ice Essence cost, its price was definitely shockingly high.

However, everyone realized a problem—the good stuff had been distributed and everyone had one, but there were still a few boxes on the table.

“Boss, are the rest yours?” Qian Lei probed.

Lan Xuanyu shook his head and said, “No, they belong to everyone. For match against the fourth years, even if we have to slam money, we must win. Tonight, other than Fatty, the four of you will go to Sea God Lake to absorb the things that I have given you. Absorb and adjust well. We will definitely win in the match tomorrow.”

“Victory is ours !”

…

Liu Baochuan sat quietly in his meditation room and felt the nourishment from the ambient energy to his body. His mind and body were calm.

But at this moment, he wasn’t meditating and was instead looking at the starlight that penetrated through the dome. His eyes were slightly dazed.

He was bare-chested and had two hideous scars on his chest that extended from his shoulders to his armpits.

He remembered very clearly that if not for the fact that his comrade-in-arms spared no effort to save him, he would have been chopped into pieces.

His deep wounds had been laced with poison. Even after the full treatment of a healing-type soul master, some poison still remained in his body, leaving behind these two shocking scars.

He remembered that moment very, very well. After waking up, he had made up his mind that no matter what, he would never again let one of his comrades pay such a painful price for him.

His comrade had lost an arm and had no choice but to get a transplant. Regenerating an arm was impossible with the current technology. It was only possible if he could reach god-rank and had a huge amount of life energy.

This matter had greatly affected him.

16-years-old, they were only 16-years-old! It was in the middle of his youth that his classmate had become a disabled person. But he still smiled and told him that it was worth it. It was worth it no matter how one looked at it to use one arm to save one life.

But, he really was still so frustrated !

There seemed to be a competition tomorrow and he heard that his opponents were first years, so four people could go on stage. Liu Baochuan knew that he had to win. If he won, he would get an additional spot to go to the Elven Planet to watch the ceremony. He had been to a Soul Beast Planet before and knew what this meant. This ceremony was definitely not ordinary.

The spot for the fourth years already belonged to him, but he still had to challenge the fifth years, so he wasn’t confident at all. Hence, if he wanted to secure at least one spot, he had to win against the first years. He would give this spot to that classmate. Although there was only a slim chance, if this chance really came true, that classmate would not only have a chance to regrow his broken arm, and he might even gain more. It was said that a Soul Bone that was over ten-thousand-year level had a chance to help regrow a broken limb. Of course, it also required a costly ceremony.

Hence, they had to win against the first years no matter what.

Sorry, juniors. Although you guys are still young, I will definitely do my best.

Liu Baochuan closed his eyes and his body lit up. A layer of white halo blossomed from his body and an indescribable sharpness suddenly rose from his back.
