Chapter 532 (2/2)
“There are many counterfeit Spiritual Condensing Bowls. Some pinnacle force would be in possession of such an item. Therefore, it was not too unbelievable for the Divine Wood Palace to have it,” said Luo Li.
“Then, can we take it away?” asked Mu Chen.
Only now did he understand that the most valuable item in the Hidden Spiritual Courtyard was not the Sovereign Spiritual Liquid, but this counterfeit Spiritual Condensing Bowl.
Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li exchanged a glance as they nodded their heads. Their background wasn’t weak, but they still could not help but to be tempted by this Spiritual Condensing Bowl, since the amount of Sovereign Spiritual Liquids that they had obtained was only a small portion compared to the amount contained in the Spiritual Condensing Bowl.
Majestic Spiritual Energy swept out from Mu Chen’s palm as it twined towards the lake that was formed by the Spiritual Condensing Bowl. However, the instant his Spiritual Energy approached the Spiritual Condensing Bowl, the Spiritual Energy was sucked into it.
His figure jolted as his gaze turned grave.
“The Spiritual Condensing Bowl would automatically absorb any approaching Spiritual Energy. I’m afraid that with our strength, it’s impossible for us to take it.” Luo Li said helplessly.
Wen Qingxuan also sighed in pity. The treasure was just before her, but she couldn’t take it away. It had really made her feel unwilling.
Mu Chen pondered when a light flickered. His expression changed as an ancient tree rune appeared from his forehead.
“Earlier, the Courtyard Spirit mentioned that I was the Successor. Since I’m the Successor, then I will naturally have the qualifications to inherit the things here.” Mu Chen pointed at the rune on his forehead as he continued, “Let me try moving it.”
Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li nodded. Since they did not have any other methods, why not let Mu Chen give it a try?
Mu Chen’s gaze gathered and the ancient tree rune on his forehead flickered with a faint luster. A moment later, the rune burst forth with green light as it spread out and enveloped the greenish lake.
Buzz. Buzz.
As everything became enshrouded by the greenish light, the originally calm lake started to ripple as a faint light was shot from the lake.
At the sight of this scene, Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan felt excited. It was indeed useful!
The light in the lake became more dense and, thereafter, the lake had started to shrink. A few minutes later, the huge lake had turned into an antique greenish jade bowl as it flew over, swaying before landing on Mu Chen’s palm that was extended.
Mu Chen, Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan had directed their gazes over.
The ancient jade bowl had quietly rested on Mu Chen’s palm as complicated veined patterns could be seen around the bowl. The patterns were a little scarlet-red. It was said that during the creation of the Spiritual Condensing Bowl, aside from various countless materials, there was also an ingredient, blood of the Spiritual Condensing Race.
Within the jade bowl, it was as if there was boundless liquid swaying about. However, it was unable to escape from the mouth of the bowl.
“Quick, look at how much Sovereign Spiritual Liquid is there!” Wen Qingxuan couldn’t endure it as she asked.
Mu Chen nodded his head as he controlled his intent into the Spiritual Condensing Bowl. However, as he probed, the Spiritual Condensing Bowl emitted greenish light that blocked off his probe. At the same time, a boundless light appeared from the mouth of the bowl as an ancient rune could be seen in that light.
Mu Chen’s face turned stiff at this instant.
“The Spiritual Condensing Bowl is sealed.” Mu Chen bitterly smiled.
“Let me try.” Wen Qingxuan refused to believe as she extended her hand and grabbed the Spiritual Condensing Bowl. She controlled her Spiritual Energy and realised that it was impossible to look into the Spiritual Condensing Bowl. She also could not extract the Sovereign Spiritual Liquid within it. The light possessed powerful defense and the seal was not something that they would deal with.
“Bastard.”
Wen Qingxuan was enraged as she threw it back to Mu Chen with hatred, “It only benefited you.”
Mu Chen awkwardly scratched his head as he received it. A jade bottle appeared in his hand, it was sparkling and translucent as drops of liquid could be seen in it. “I have taken a total of one hundred and twenty four Sovereign Spiritual Liquid. I’ll give it all to you.”
He knew how precious the Spiritual Condensing Bowl was, since it was not something that slightly more than a hundred Sovereign Spiritual Liquid could be compared to. However, he did not have the intention to monopolise it.
“Forget it, it was something that was obtained by you. I don’t want it.” Wen Qingxuan cast her lips aside as she continued, “However, the Spiritual Condensing Bowl is yours. But me and Luo Li have a share in the Sovereign Spiritual Liquid in it. Take note of it and give back to us double the amount in the future.”
Although Wen Qingxuan said those words, she was clearly just rambling.
“Thanks, consider it as me owing you a favor.” Mu Chen said in a serious tone.
With Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan’s backgrounds, perhaps this counterfeit Spiritual Condensing Bowl wasn’t an inseparable treasure. However, to Mu Chen who did not have any background, it was an important item.
“Rest assured, although your favor isn’t worth anything, I will still remember it.” Wen Qingxuan said as her rosy lips rose.
Mu Chen smiled before looking at Luo Li. The latter gently smiled. With their relationship, there wasn’t a need to divide things so clearly between the both of them.
“Let’s go. It’s almost time and perhaps, Xu Huang and the rest are also anxiously waiting.” Luo Li said gently.
Hearing her words, Mu Chen smiled as he nodded. Since he had already obtained the Spiritual Condensing Bowl, there wasn’t a need to stay here anymore.
“Let’s go.”
Mu Chen waved his hand and he turned around without any hesitation. Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan followed his pace. As the three of them left, the gate of the Hidden Spiritual Courtyard slowly closed as it returned to its original quiet state.
