AST 2327 – A Whip, Eldest Mistress in the Divine Rain Sect

Eventually, Qing Shui stopped only after he could barely contend against it. He was incomparably satisfied by this result; he could hardly counter it even with his strongest defense and offense. This showed just how powerful the Divine Battle Puppet was. If he complemented it with the Battle God Halo and formations, how great would the power be?

Yuchi Ding from the Divine Rain Sect returned in less than three days and brought along the remaining items. He took out the unique and strange items for Qing Shui to choose. There was a huge variety of items though most of it was useless. However, there was a decent range of choice.

There was a whip. It looked like a pole, boring and gray in appearance. You couldn’t tell what was amazing about it by just a glance, but there was a subtle overbearing pressure to it. While subtle, it could still be felt if one paid enough attention.

“This item is already resilient and sturdy. I saw that you were alright with the puppet from before, how do you feel about this?” Yuchi Ding said with a smile.

“Let’s count this one, then. However, I didn’t find any treasures that I like among the others. I suggest you bring out the valuable stuff for the next three. You can’t possibly use all of these to make up the number!” That was what Qing Shui said, however, he knew that he had earned much from this. The Divine Battle Puppet was stronger than even ten Divine Artifacts.

Yuchi Ding laughed awkwardly before bringing out a few weapons, armors, and other stuff. Qing Shui had Chi Yang, Massacre Battle God, and Mighty Spear Battle God choose one each.

Mighty Spear Battle God and Massacre Battle God each chose a weapon while Chi Yang took a set of armor.

These were all Divine Artifacts. Their grade wasn’t as strong as one would imagine, but they should be stronger than the others. They held a mystical power and could be considered a premium batch of items.

These items could increase their combat powers by a great amount. Take Massacre Battle God and Mighty Spear Battle God for example, with an additional weapon, their attack powers were much stronger than before. How terrifying was it to be able to increase even further at this level?

Since the incident had concluded, Qing Shui suggested taking a trip down to the Divine Rain Sect. Yuchi Ding had naturally welcomed his presence and just like that, he followed him back to the Divine Rain Sect.

And while he was at it, Qing Shui didn’t feel bad taking the decent items from the Divine Rain Sect either.

Rainforest!

This was where the Divine Rain Sect was located, within a land of a fantasy-looking forest. It was decorated with rainbow colored trees; a mystical halo could be seen surrounding each of them. There were also several fruit trees. These trees were upright and strong yet pleasant looking. They held a hint of ancient aura.

Drizzles of rain filled this place endlessly. However, it was difficult to drench your clothing in this rain, and the air was fresh. There was a clear and wide pathway in the rainforest, paved by cobblestone-like materials. However, it was wide enough for carriages to go through.

Following the pathway, they advanced forward. It was a winding route, as though it went through different worlds; every turn presented them with a different type of tree. It felt like the change of seasons.

From afar, he could see a building in the rain. The buildings here were made of multi-colored bamboos among the forest of bamboos. It was elegant and grand.

At the sight of the building, Qing Shui wondered how much deeper did it extend into. Only when they arrived did he realize that the drizzle had stopped and the sun had brightly illuminated the area. The place was bustling, crowded with people who were wearing cloudrain attire. It was well-equipped with stores and restaurants, just like a small world on its own.

“This is our Divine Rain Sect!” Yuchi Ding announced with a smile.

“This place is pretty good. Are all these people from the Divine Rain Sect? There are so many of them!” Qing Shui observed their surroundings, noting that they looked like regular folk.

“This place belongs to the Divine Rain Sect. You’ll see a lot of common people. They are the descendants of our Divine Rain Sect. This is just the external gate; they can only pass through the inner gates if they pass the assessment.”

“Oh. I’d like to take a look at the inner gates, I wonder if that’s convenient?” Qing Shui asked.

“Sure. There’s nothing inconvenient about that.” With that, Yuchi Ding led Qing Shui forward.
