Chapter 549 (2/2)

“How can I compete with Grandmaster Wei? Grandmaster Wei is a reputable Smithing Grandmaster and is able to refine earth cla.s.s peak-tier weapons . His personal wealth is dozens of times more than mine . ”

The 15th floor was all private rooms and the private rooms had sound isolation arrays .

However, with Li Fuchen’s spiritual awareness, the arrays of the Soaring Rain Restaurant weren’t able to obstruct him .

In an exquisite and luxurious private room by the side, there were three Battle Spirit Realm masters drinking liquor . From their conversation, Li Fuchen found out that the South Mountain City had a stone gambling den . Inside the stone gambling den, they were gambling for heaven stone ores .

The so-called heaven stones were odd stones that contained heaven and earth laws . The martial artist would be able to comprehend the profound laws within the heaven stone and allow one’s foundation to be stronger . It would allow for an easier effort to comprehend martial arts, as the essence of martial arts were from the profound laws .

However, the stone gambling den was gambling on heaven stone ores which were naturally able prevent spiritual awareness from sensing inside . Even Law Phase Realm emperors would have a very hard time to see anything within a piece of heaven stone ore . Therefore, no one knew if a piece of heaven stone ore had any heaven stone within . If there wasn’t any heaven stone, it would be a simple piece of useless rock and would be worth nothing . If there was a heaven stone, it would be separated by size and grade .

The heaven stone was separated into five grades: Subpar grade, low grade, middle grade, high grade, and extreme grade .

Even a normal fist-sized subpar grade heaven stone would be worth a few hundred mid-grade spirit stones . If it was a fist-sized low grade heaven stone, then it would be at least 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones .

In the stone gambling world, there was a saying, “One cut to heaven or one cut to h.e.l.l . ”

If you won the gamble, it would be heaven, but if you lost the gamble, it would be h.e.l.l .

After all, a heaven stone ore with great appearance would be worth plenty of mid-grade spirit stones . There were people who gambled with their entire wealth, only to get nothing in return .

There were people who casually bought a piece and would become instantly rich .

“This stone gambling is rather interesting . ” Li Fuchen smiled .

He withdrew his spiritual awareness and entered another private room .

“Did you hear? Three days ago, the Mount Wu Sword Sect, Paradise Cult, and Crosswise Saber Sect worked together and attacked the Sky Fire Palace . They killed many of the Sky Fire Palace’s Primary Sea Realm monarchs and the Sky Fire Palace had no choice but to leave the Emperor Sky Continent with a teleportation array . ”

“How can I not hear of it? This matter is spreading like wildfire . I just don’t know why this Sky Fire Palace would actually offend three monarch-cla.s.s factions and make them work together to kill them . The Paradise Cult is a half-emperor cla.s.s faction, if the half-emperor makes a move, it would be unstoppable unless there was a Law Phase Realm emperor . ”

“It is all because of the Sky Fire Palace Master as he obtained a heaven cla.s.s artifact armor during an exploration . It is unknown how the information leaked out, causing them to incur a huge disaster . ”

“Sigh, the Sky Fire Palace has been driven out of the Emperor Sky Continent and their teleportation array has also been destroyed . If they are to return, it will probably take them at least a decade . ”

“Isn’t that right? With such a vast ocean in between, even if a high-level Primary Sea Realm monarch wishes to travel from one continent to the other continent, it would take a very long time . If the Primary Sea Realm monarch encounters a heaven-defying sea beast king or sea beast ruler along the way, the monarch might just perish there . ”

In this private room, there were a few high-level Battle Spirit Realm masters who were drinking and gossiping .

“Sky Fire Palace?” Li Fuchen frowned .

The Sky Fire Palace was also a monarch-cla.s.s faction in the South Sun County and wasn’t considered far away from the Red Rainbow Sect . It was just two cities away .

“The Emperor Sky Continent is much more dangerous than I imagine . Monarch-cla.s.s factions would gather together and attack . If there wasn’t any alliance with other monarch-cla.s.s factions, the enemies might just attack their mountain establishment and destroy the teleportation array . ”

To a foreign monarch-cla.s.s faction, a mountain establishment was very important . As the mountain establishments had teleportation arrays . They would only be able to constantly send more people over with that teleportation array . If the teleportation array was destroyed, they would need an Array Monarch to come over and set up the teleportation array . But for the Array Monarch to come over, the monarch would need to travel a slow and arduous journey across the vast ocean .

The Red Rainbow Sect arrived at the Emperor Sky Continent a few centuries ago . Back then, over a dozen Primary Sea Realm monarchs rode on a cla.s.s 7 battles.h.i.+p . During the journey, they countered multiple attacks from demonic beast kings . When they reached the Emperor Sky Continent, half of the crew had perished and it was fortunate that they didn’t encounter any demonic beast emperor . It was normal for an entire crew to be annihilated by a demonic beast emperor .

With a powerful spiritual awareness, Li Fuchen was able to obtain many information regarding the Emperor Sky Continent, allowing him to gradually have a deeper understanding of the Emperor Sky Continent .
