“What will I name it?” Fang Xingjian did not care much about this. He looked toward Fang Qian and Wang Xiaoyan, saying, “This is the Divine Remains Equipment which the two of you worked together to modify. You can have the job of naming it.”
Wang Xiaoyan gave it some thought and said, “This Divine Armor is able to keep on engulfing various materials, including other Divine Remains Equipment, to evolve itself. Why don’t we call it the World-Engulfing Battle God Armor?”
“World-Engulfing Battle God Armor? That doesn’t sound bad. We’ll go with that then.” Fang Xingjian looked at the golden armor with great satisfaction. With a movement of the consciousness in his mind, the armor shrank and turned into an invisible layer of stratum corneum, sticking itself tightly onto Fang Xingjian.
Fang Xingjian continued to ask, “How long more will it take for the Divine Remains Equipment to be forged from the Divine level spinal bone?” Once he could be equipped with the sword and the armor, Fang Xingjian’s power would grow tremendously. Even if he were to go and get the Panwu Heavenly Raiment, he would not have to be scared that someone would be waiting to prey on him in secret.
“The World-Engulfing Battle God Armor was something we modified from the previous refinements, while the Divine Sword, that is to be forged from the Divine level spinal bone, needs to be refined starting from scratch. However, the preparations are almost done. After succeeding in refining the World-Engulfing Battle God Armor, we have gained even more experience. Now, we only need to make some changes to the blueprint. Within two to three months, we’ll be able to forge a longsword that’s a Divine Remains Equipment.”
After Wang Xiaoyan finished saying that, Fang Xingjian nodded. “Alright. Feel free to use whatever resources you require. There’s no need to save on the money.”
After discussing more about the design and plans for the Divine Remains Equipment, Wang Xiaoyan and Fang Qian took their leave. However, soon after that, Zhou Xingwen came in and placed a drawing before Fang Xingjian.
“Xingjian, we have news of a Origin Essence Stone. It doesn’t belong to the Church, the Terrene Shrine, or the Empire’s royal family. We’ve discovered a piece of Origin Essence Stone which may still be undiscovered.”
“Oh?” Fang Xingjian unrolled the drawing to see that it was one of a dazzling and extremely beautiful young lady. However, Fang Xingjian was not attracted by the young lady but by the necklace around her neck that had a gemstone on it.
Fang Xingjian took a look at the necklace and said, “Someone used an Origin Essence Stone to make a necklace?”
“There’s this possibility,” Zhou Xingwen said in a deep voice. “After all, there are only a few Origin Essence Stones in the entire world. Few people know of it, and even fewer people recognize it. We’ve only came up with this suspicion after having verified it multiple times.”
“That’s right.” Fang Xingjian nodded. “Who is this lady?”
“Audrey Pop, the Young Miss from the Pop Clan,” Zhou Xingwen said. “The Northern Ice Region’s Pop Clan has been dealing with food trade for close to 100 years. They’re a wealthy and influential clans in the Northern Ice Region. Although they might not be considered to be one of the best, they are a first-rate influence. It probably wouldn’t be easy if we offer to purchase it directly.”
“There’s no need to alarm them.” Fang Xingjian put aside the drawing as he made up his mind about getting his hands on this Origin Essence Stone. Moreover, in order to have absolute confidence, he would need to personally take action in secret and get his hands on the Origin Essence Stone.
Thinking of this, he handed the drawing back to Zhou Xingwen and said, “Leave it be for now. Just keep an eye on it.”
Zhou Xingwen was slightly taken aback, as if he had not expected Fang Xingjian to react this way. Was the Origin Essence Stone not something very important and to be acquired immediately?
However, after Fang Xingjian was placed in an unfavorable position from the Terrene Shrine’s ambush previously, he no longer planned to let his subordinates alarm others when something as important as an Origin Essence Stone was involved. He planned to personally head to the Northern Ice Region and take a look.
In particular, with the eyes of the First Prince, the escaped Fifth Prince, and the Terrene Shrine all focused on him, this made Fang Xingjian even more unwilling to lose this chance of acquiring an Origin Essence Stone.
Therefore, after Zhou Xingwen left, Fang Xingjian said to Tyrant, “Take on my appearance for the next few days and help me watch over the Great Western City. Make a few trips outside and show your face appropriately.”
