Chapter 862 (2/2)
“Higher ranked relics…”
Mu Chen ruminated for a moment, above the Grade Three Relics were the Grade Two Relics. These relics were really extraordinary. In fact, the last time that they had met one by chance, even though they had paid a price for it together, the harvest was really delightful.
It was only one relic, but it was enough to be worth ten Grade Three Relics. Besides the numerous heritage treasures, thousands of Meteorfall Alchemy pills had also been extracted.
However, although the Grade Two Relics were rich with treasures, they were very difficult to find. Before, even if Mu Chen had the help of the Spirit Seeking Compass, they could still only find one.
In today’s Meteorfall Battlefield, as long as there was news of a Grade Three Relic, there would be an imminent influx of forces flocking over to stake their claims.
“About those higher ranked relics… I wonder if you have heard any news these two days?” Lord Hongya, who had been silent, suddenly spoke.
“Oh?” Lord Mountain Cracker and the others knit their brows. He then frowned immediately and said, “Are you talking about news of the Death Relic that has been spreading?”
“Death Relic?” Mu Chen was also stunned, obviously not understanding what this was.
“Recently, in the northwest area of the Meteorfall Battlefield, it is said that a relic was found. It is also said that, so far, all of the people who entered, never came out. This is apparently why some people call it the Death Relic,” Nine Nether explained.
“Now that news of the Death Relic has been passed down, there are a lot of first-class and top-notch forces that have shown great interest in it. According to their speculations, the so-called Death Relic is likely to be a Grade One Relic!”
“Grade One Relic?!” Mu Chen’s eyes were wide open, as that was the second most privileged relic, just below the Earthly Sovereign Secret Treasure! Even with the help of the power of a Spirit Seeking Compass, they had not found a Grade One Relic! This fact alone showed how deep the relic was hidden.
“That is the news, but we do not know whether it is truly a Grade One Relic. After all, in an eerie place like the Meteorfall Battlefield, anything can happen. Nobody knows what they can obtain, if they spend enough effort to break in. But…”
Lord Mountain Cracker paused, staring at Mu Chen. He then continued, “It is said that there seem to be traces of a fallen war troop dispatcher in the Death Relic…”
War Troop Dispatcher?!
Mu Chen’s expression changed drastically, as he directed a burning gaze towards Lord Mountain Cracker. That kind of legendary existence was extremely rare in today’s vast Great Thousand World! Thus, he was not clear how to become a formal war troop dispatcher, even if he could control fighting intent. However, he was only at the initial level, so he had to rely on his own exploration to cultivate.
Nine Nether, seeming to have expected such a reaction from Mu Chen, then said, “It is said that a large number of corpses from armies have been found there. So, it is speculated that the remains of the dead may have been left there by the war troop dispatcher.”
Mu Chen’s agitated mood calmed slowly. He nodded slightly after a moment. Although the Death Relic was indeed extremely attractive, the danger must have been unimaginable. So, even he could not help but hesitate a little.
If it’s just a bunch of people from Nine Nether Palace at the moment, Mu Chen naturally would want to try it out. After all, the war troop dispatcher held a lot of attraction for him.
But, now that there were other lords present, Mu Chen wasn’t sure if they were willing to take such a big risk, especially for some unrealistic and unconfirmed rumors. Although they had not seen the Death Relic, it was obviously not a good place, since it had such a malicious reputation!
“If you are interested in the Death Relic, you must decide as soon as possible. It is said that the two prodigies of fighting intent from Tian Xuan Hall and the Divine Pavilion are now rushing towards the Death Relic. So, if my speculation is right, they are targeting the information of the war troop dispatcher.” Nine Nether smiled, further tempting Mu Chen.
“Haha, if Lord Mu Chen is interested, we would accompany you. At present, all four of our armies have the Spirit of Fighting Intent. I think that, no matter how dangerous the Death Relic is, we should have the ability to protect ourselves.” It seemed that he was aware of the hesitation in Mu Chen’s mind, and the other four lords smiled, looking from one to the other.
“We haven’t tested how formidable a Grade One Relic is, so now we can try out its prowess.”
Upon hearing his words, Mu Chen was relieved. If only Nine Nether Palace had gone to explore, it would have been too dangerous, as they had to support themselves. However, with the support of the other lords, the probability of safety could be greatly raised. This is all thanks to his help in condensing the other armies’ Spirit of Fighting Intent. Otherwise, the other lords would not have been so willing to step into such unknown murky waters!
No matter what, they now had the approval of the other lords, so they could now target the Death Relic! Mu Chen clenched his fists tightly, a burning gaze surging in the depths of his dark eyes.
He was anticipating the appearance of a war troop dispatcher. Hopefully, this Death Relic would not disappoint him!
