Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 2225  Apprehensible Costs

The sheer cost of the Immortal Paragon Ring seemed to be apprehensible.

"Three hundred million?" Daoist Chu muttered in shock. "Even Daoist Mu Lin only has three million after killing all those Chimeric Beasts."

"Is this even realistic?" Crown Princess Shang couldn't help but ask.

"If it's here, then it should certainly be an achievable target." Lady Kang spoke. "I doubt they would put something that cannot be obtained." She added.

"Indeed. We've already seen four more swarms that around the area of our base. If we kill all of them, they will probably add up to at least ten million or so." Ziran calculated. "And that is in just these five hundred to eight hundred kilometers of area. Who knows how many more there are in this entire Spatial Plane." He added.

"Ziran is correct. The sheer number of Chimeric beasts should be much higher than we're thinking." Elder Hu chimed in as well.

"Though we can say one thing for sure." Crown Prince Feng Shun spoke with a chuckle. "That is definitely a worthy price for an Immortal Paragon Ring." He stated.

"Out on the market, I doubt we would be able to estimate a cost for it." Lady Kang said. "And if it were ever put on the auction… if it is even possible, the bids would go as high as the heavens." She added.

The rest of them couldn't help but agreed other than the ones that didn't know the true value of the object.

"Is it really that valuable?" Qiao De asked, not knowing about the Immortal Paragon Ring. Lin Mu would have been in the same boat, if not for the fact that Xukong had already informed him about the importance and power of the ring. The others including Ziran, Elder Hu and Min Ju seemed to already know about the Immortal Paragon Ring. Though Lin Mu could attribute this to their background as well as life experiences. Compared to the rest, Qiao De probably had the lowest standing here as such it was normal that he didn't know about it.

"It is far more valuable than even a Hundred Peak Grade Immortal Weapons." Crown Prince Feng Shun stated. "Though anyone that dares to hold it will also have to bear a great burden." He added.

"What kind of burden?" Qiao De asked, realizing that this ring was something beyond the scope of his understanding.

"The burden of being hunted down by the entire Immortal Court, all of its allied powers, the clans under it as well as the temple of the Guardian Beasts." Crown Prince Feng Shun answered.

~GASP~

Qiao De couldn't help but let out a shocked gasp upon hearing that. "That… severe?" He was stunned.

"You can think of the Ring as being similar to the Imperial Seal. One that holds it will also hold great authority. Of course, the Immortal Court wouldn't let someone like that exist outside them." Crown Prince Feng Shun explained.

But hearing this, Lin Mu had a different thought.

"Wouldn't that apply to you too then?" Lin Mu asked. "You are trying to get it, right?" "I am yes, but I am still part of the Immortal Court." Crown Prince Feng Shun replied. "And my intentions are different too… We need to return this to the Immortal Court at all costs. Something like this cannot be allowed to exist outside it… The implications of anyone obtaining it would be heavy for the entire realm." He added in a serious tone.

Lin Mu nodded his head, knowing how many privileges it could grant one even if they were greatly reduced.

"Besides, we also need it to obtain for another reason." Monk Hushu stated. "There has never been a case that an Immortal Paragon Ring had left the ownership of the Immortal Paragon or the confines of the Immortal realm. We need to know why it is here, and who brought it here." He stated.

"Indeed. That might be even more important." Crown Prince Feng Shun agreed. "Heavens forbid, if this ring was somehow sneaked out or stolen… it might be even more horrendous for the Immortal Realm." He went to the worst case scenario.

"For someone to be capable enough to steal an Immortal Paragon Ring… just how strong and crazy would they have to be even?" Daoist Chu wondered. "Would someone like this even exist?" "Well, we do have a suspect for it though." Lin Mu stated. "The Celestial that owns this realm." He added.

"A celestial… Indeed its a task that only a Celestial might be able to accomplish." Elder Hu could see the possibility.

"Still, even if a Celestial took it, the implications of it are quite great. We still need to bring the ring back and report to the Immortal Court." Crown Prince Feng Shun stated.

"Looks like we'll have more reasons than just the Grand Bagua Mythic Series to return to the Immortal Court." Daoist Chu stated.

"Don't forget to take the two Grand Bagua Mythic Series fragments that they have." Xukong reminded Lin Mu. "Those aren't easy to obtain at all." "I will." Lin Mu responded. "I'll ask them at a more opportune time." He added.

"Alright." Xukong responded, knowing that the time was a bit tense right now.

"I suppose we'll be going on a hunting spree then." Crown Princess Shang said. "At least we now know there is indeed some value to hunting the Chimeric Beasts down." She added.

"Yes! The rewards here are quite good." Qiao De's eyes shimmered with greed. "I took a look at the base level items and they are already quite rare and good." He added.

This prompted Lin Mu to look up at the walls full of reward lists.

"Wait, is the Immortal Paragon's Ring the most expensive item here?" Lin Mu questioned.

"I… Don't know." Daoist Chu said before looking at the list.

Lin Mu looked at the item that was right above the Immortal Paragon ring and its cost.
