Chapter 1426 - Encountering Time And Space Crystals Again (2/2)
There were honestly too many treasures in the World Treasury. It was dizzying. Basically, every item was worth a million, but Zhang Ruochen could only choose one.
“Which one should I choose? For attack weapons, I have the Abyss Ancient Sword, Buddha’s sarira, and Kaiyuan Deer Cauldron. For defense, I have the Ten-Saint Blood Armor and Hundred-Saint Blood Armor. What else do I need?” Zhang Ruochen never thought that he would be so indecisive.
Thus, he closed his eyes and released his Spiritual Power. He investigated each corner of the World Treasury, searching for the treasure most suitable to bring onto the merits battlefield.
Suddenly, he sensed weak spatial ripples.
His eyes flew open with a shocked expression. “There’s a spatial treasure here?”
Zhang Ruochen walked in the direction of the spatial ripples. Finally, he stood beside a Ten-thousand-pattern Saint Weapon s.h.i.+eld.
There were a dozen extremely valuable gems embedded onto the s.h.i.+eld—divine blood stones, dragon pearl shards, special bone fragments…
The spatial ripples came from one of the white stones.
“Time and s.p.a.ce Crystal. It’s actually a Time and s.p.a.ce Crystal.”
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t hold in a soft laugh. He extended a finger, pressing onto the stone. He activated his Holy Qi and sent it in.
The next moment, Zhang Ruochen’s palm had reached into the Time and s.p.a.ce Crystal.
The inside of the crystal was around 20 meters in length, width, and height. The time ratio was 4:1 compared to the outside world.
The Time and s.p.a.ce Crystal that Emperor Ming had given Zhang Ruochen was ten meters in length, width, and height. The time ratio was 3:1.
Could it be that Time and s.p.a.ce Crystals are formed naturally, so the inner s.p.a.ce and time ratio aren’t set? Then are Time and s.p.a.ce Crystals also mined like other crystals and saint stones?
What kind of mine can produce Time and s.p.a.ce Crystals?
Zhang Ruochen couldn’t figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it for now.
Anyway, if he could find a Time and s.p.a.ce Crystal, his cultivation speed would be four times faster than before. This was great news.
Wu Hao appeared soundlessly behind Zhang Ruochen. “Brother Zhang, have you chosen?”
Zhang Ruochen acted calm. Grabbing the Ten-thousand-pattern Saint Weapon s.h.i.+eld, he held it and said, “Done!”
Wu Hao looked at the three items that Zhang Ruochen had chosen. An odd look flashed past his eyes. “The Hundred-Saint Blood Armor and Monument s.h.i.+eld are both defensive treasures. The Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune can only kill an Absolute Saint. With your cultivation, you can escape easily even if you can’t kill an Absolute Saint Luosha. It doesn’t seem to be useful.”
Zhang Ruochen glanced at the Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune in his hand. “It’s for someone else.”
The beautiful girl who’d stood beside Zhang Ruochen outside the library appeared in Wu Hao’s mind. He smiled in realization. “I see. I didn’t know Brother Zhang was so sentimental.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t say anything. He walked straight out of the World Treasury.
Wu Hao stared at Zhang Ruochen’s back. An odd smile appeared in his eyes as he murmured to himself, “I thought that you’d have no weak spots, but you also can’t resist the beauty.”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t want to hide things before Wu Hao or be so cynical, because he never viewed Wu Hao as his opponent.
The only person who Zhang Ruochen viewed as his opponent was Chi Yao.
There was still a big gap between them. But Zhang Ruochen believed that one day, he would play a game of chess with Chi Yao as the chess piece manipulator. He would win the game that Emperor Ming had lost back then.
Walking out of the World Treasury, Zhang Ruochen handed the Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune to Mu Lingxi.
Other than the Heir and priest, the Saints and Saint Kings of Guanghan Field had to go into the World Treasury according to their cultivation level.
Thus, even if the World Treasury had a dozen Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Runes, it would all be gone by the time Mu Lingxi could go in.
This made the Nine Overlapping Heaven Trial Rune that Zhang Ruochen brought out seem extremely valuable.
Mu Lingxi clutched it like a little squirrel who’d stolen some candy. She smiled sweetly. “I won’t be polite with you. I’ll take it!”
Zhang Ruochen took out Ten-Saint Blood Armor and gave it to Mu Lingxi. “You won’t need to choose a defensive treasure when you enter the World Treasury. The Ten-Saint Blood Armor is enough for you.”
For the Immortal Vampires, even True Saints and Absolute Saints only used Ten-Saint Blood Armor. Even then, not everyone had it.
Only the top figures of the Immortal Vampires were qualified to use Hundred-Saint Blood Armor. It wasn’t only because it was valuable. Even more so, it was because it greatly exhausted Holy Qi to activate the Hundred-Saint power. Saints couldn’t withstand it at all.
Back at the Heir Banquet, the third prince of the Qingtian Tribe had put on the Hundred-Saint Blood Armor, but it had only been like a super-defensive armor. He couldn’t unleash even 1/1000th of the power.
After all, the Hundred-Saint Power was like the power of 100 Saints. The Holy Qi exertion was also equal to the exertion of Holy Qi from 100 Saints.
Zhang Ruochen dared to choose the Hundred-Saint Blood Armor because his Sea of Qi was 10,000 times more vast than regular people. He also had four saintly sources, so he could use the Hundred-Saint Power for short-term fighting.
Zhang Ruochen left the World Treasury and returned to his cultivation residence. He didn’t want to waste a single minute. He wanted to improve his abilities a bit more before entering Zuling Field.
