Chapter 382: Chapter 312: Nine Brilliance Star Venerable Tripod_2

Li Cheng nodded, “You’ve already reached the Heaven God State, have you tried the Demon-suppressing Envoy assessment?”

“Replying to Master, your disciple went and has become an apprentice Demon-suppressing Envoy. This time, I came to Savage City with Senior Sister to complete a mission and become a one-star Demon-suppressing Envoy.”

“Who knew that just after completing the mission and returning to the city, we were captured by that Divine Monarch who wanted to refine us into Divine Pills.”

Duan Shuiliu’s heart palpitated with lingering fear. If not for Master arriving in time, he and his Senior Sister would have been finished.

Li Cheng understood, took out the storage ring of that burly man, waved his hand to take out the large tripod from within, and gave the storage ring to them to sort out, while he began studying the tripod himself.

The body of the tripod contained more than seventy million Divine Patterns, with many formations inside that aided in Alchemy.

“This Divine Tripod is not simple. On the surface, it appears to be a King Grade Divine Artifact, but a significant part of it is still sealed. If it were completely unlocked, Heaven knows how powerful it would be,” Li Cheng thought to himself.

The Divine Patterns that emerge when Divine Artifacts are born range from one million to ten million for top-grade Divine Artifacts, and those exceeding ten million are of the King Grade.

King Grade Divine Artifacts are extremely rare, valued at more than ten times the Divine Patterns they contain. As for a Pill Tripod like this one of King Grade, its value is more than a hundred times the number of Divine Patterns, meaning this large tripod is worth at least seven billion Divine Stones.

After examining it for a moment, Li Cheng was surprised to find a hidden Pill Recipe inside the large tripod!

Heaven Stealing Pill!

Taking a person as the main material and combining one hundred and eight specific Divine Medicines, one can refine part of this person’s talent into a pill!

Li Cheng frowned, “Is there actually someone who concocted such a Divine Pill?”

When he saw the burly man using Yin Yue and Duan Shuiliu for Alchemy, Li Cheng only thought he was an Evil Cultivator intending to refine them into pills to boost Cultivation. He didn’t expect it to be such a sinister Heaven Stealing Pill.

Without hesitation, Li Cheng erased the Heaven Stealing Pill recipe. Such a recipe should not exist in this world.

Li Cheng did not bother to verify the authenticity of this recipe. He believed it could very well be a fake deliberately created by an Evil Demon to spread around and reduce the number of talented individuals in the Human Tribe.

If that were the case, over time, there would be fewer and fewer talented Cultivators in the Human Tribe, and naturally, fewer people would reach the pinnacle in the future.

No matter what, such a recipe was something Li Cheng would not keep, nor did he think highly of it.

However, this Tripod was quite good. If it could be completely unsealed, it might even become a higher-level Divine Artifact.

The marks of the burly man inside the Tripod had disappeared along with his death, allowing Li Cheng to refine it with ease and information about the Tripod also appeared in his mind.

“Nine Brilliance Star Venerable Tripod? Origin unknown…”

The information was limited, perhaps due to part of the Tripod being sealed.

Li Cheng didn’t mind. Currently, it was a King Grade Divine Artifact, sufficient for his use. Whether the seal could be lifted or not didn’t matter much.

“Master, there are more than two million Divine Stones in this storage ring, along with some low-quality Divine Pills and Divine Materials, none of which are of much use,” Yin Yue’s voice sounded, as they had finished sorting out the storage ring.

If outsiders heard this statement, they would be heartbroken.

This was the wealth of a Complete Divine Monarch, yet in the eyes of two junior Heaven Gods, it was deemed nearly useless!

But their words were indeed true. With Li Cheng there, they used only the finest Divine Pills. Those of lower quality were naturally considered inferior.

As for the Divine Stones, the semispherical object next to them was full of top-grade Divine Stones. Taking out two hundred would be comparable to the wealth of that Divine Monarch. In that kilometer-wide hemisphere, how many batches of two hundred could there be?

Li Cheng nodded, “I am preparing to go to Land Puppet Mansion Venerable City, and you should come along. The Cultivation conditions there are better.”

“We will follow Master’s decision!” The two disciples said in unison, bowing in respect.

Land Puppet Mansion was under the control of Blunt Empty Venerable. If Li Cheng were to go there, he would definitely enjoy the best resources. Originally, Li Cheng did not want to trouble his fellow countryman; after all, he wouldn’t lack anything on his own, and his Cultivation progress wouldn’t be slow.

But seeing that Blunt Empty Venerable had invited external assistance, Li Cheng knew that he owed a great favor, and he could not simply ignore it.

So, he might as well seek the support of a fellow countryman!

Do not let down Blunt Empty Venerable’s kindness.

Upon returning to the Kongqian Heaven Dynasty Imperial City, Yin Yue and Duan Shuiliu went to find Kong Lianqing to say goodbye, while Li Cheng entered the Imperial Palace.

Kong Linfeng had already returned from the Hundred Dynasties Meeting. When he heard from the guards that someone with a golden spirit had entered the imperial palace, he knew Li Cheng had arrived.

In the Imperial Study, Kong Linfeng personally poured tea for Li Cheng, “Are you ready to go to Mansion Venerable City?”

“Blunt Empty Venerable must have been worried sick about my business, if I don’t go now, I’d feel terribly guilty.” Li Cheng shook his head with a smile.

Kong Linfeng chuckled, “You can’t say that. Your emergence is not only a matter for Land Puppet Mansion but also for the entire Human Tribe. Just think, what would happen if you fell into the hands of Evil Demons? So, you shouldn’t feel burdened.”

From Kong Linfeng’s perspective, should Li Cheng fall into the hands of Evil Demons, they would undoubtedly find a way to control him, turning him into a significant aid for the Evil Demons.

By that time, if Li Cheng mass-produced Divine Pills and Artifacts, it would certainly not be good for the Human Tribe.

Therefore, from his grand scheme of things, fully protecting Li Cheng might indeed be something that Mansion Venerable should do.

“Actually, I’d rather you didn’t go to Fu City. After all, with you here, the entire Divine Dynasty is greatly strengthened, but I also know that your stage is not limited to the small Kongqian Heaven Dynasty. Hence, I wish you smooth sailing!”

A smile hung on Kong Linfeng’s face, devoid of the emperor’s majesty, filled only with appreciation for the junior before him.

At this moment, Kong Lianqing hurriedly swept in. Her figure had not arrived before her voice rang out, “Li Cheng, are you going to Fu City now?”

Kong Linfeng sighed, “You must find this quite amusing. Don’t judge her too harshly; I’ve spoiled her since she was little.”

In the midst of speaking, Kong Lianqing rushed into the imperial study and sat down directly beside Li Cheng, her cold gaze fixed on him.

Li Cheng clasped his hands together, “It’s about time I left.”

Kong Lianqing’s eyes were filled with reluctance, but she nodded, “The cultivation conditions in Fu City are far superior to those of other places. Since you’re going, don’t be lazy. Cultivate diligently.”

Kong Linfeng took over the conversation, “Li Cheng has already become Divine Monarch, while you have not yet reached True God. You are the one who should be cultivating seriously.”

Kong Lianqing glanced at Kong Linfeng, “You don’t need to tell me. I’ve made my decision. Hand over the key!”

Kong Linfeng frowned, deep in thought.

Kong Lianqing didn’t urge him but turned to Li Cheng, “I came to you for two reasons. First, to thank you for participating in the Hundred Dynasties Meeting. Now the situation in Kongqian is looking great, all thanks to you.”

“Second, to bid farewell. When you go to Fu City, don’t slack off. I will catch up to you!”

A smile hung on Li Cheng’s face as he teased, “Since it’s a farewell, shouldn’t you soften your expression?”

Kong Lianqing was lost for words. The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, transforming her stunning visage into something that seemed capable of blooming a hundred flowers, though in the blink of an eye, it returned to its usual coldness.

“Take care!”

Kong Lianqing uttered and rose to leave, her voice trailing after her, “If you’ve made up your mind, send the key to the Demon-suppressing Department.”

Watching Kong Lianqing’s retreating figure, Kong Linfeng’s face was filled with bitterness.

He sighed before speaking, “She has a very rare special constitution. At the age of eighteen, her awakening failed, and it was her mother who sacrificed her life to save her. Since then, she has not smiled again…”

“Let’s not dwell on that. When you’re in Fu City, stay low-profile until you have sufficient strength to protect yourself. The Human Tribe has been severely infiltrated by Evil Demons, and no one can guarantee that there are no crises in Fu City.”

Li Cheng nodded, “Understood!”

The next day, Li Cheng once again took on the guise of Yun Tianqiong, brought Yin Yue and Duan Shuiliu into the Blunt Empty Residence, and took the Transmission Array to Fu City.

Fu City is the heart of Land Puppet Mansion.

With one hundred and eight realms of Land Puppet Mansion, each realm consisting of tens of thousands of Heaven Dynasties, the expanse far surpasses what one can imagine. As the core area, Fu City is naturally not comparable in prosperity to other places.

Fu City is not a single city but is composed of seventy-two Earth Sha Cities, thirty-six Heaven Gang Cities, making up one hundred and eight cities in total.

In one of the seventy-two cities, Land Level City, a Transmission Array lit up, and Li Cheng’s figure appeared accordingly.

“Quick, leave the Transmission Array so as not to hinder others from coming through!”

This was a plaza brimming with Transmission Arrays, with hundreds of City Guards maintaining order.

Li Cheng stepped out of the Transmission Array and looked up at the sky to see thirty-six fist-sized black dots.

Those were the thirty-six Heaven Gang Cities, suspended high in the sky.

“Holding the Mansion Venerable Order, go to Heaven Puppet City first, then transfer to Mansion Venerable City.”

Suddenly, the voice of Blunt Empty Venerable rang in Li Cheng’s ear, and a Token suddenly appeared in his hand.

Li Cheng was somewhat surprised; he had just arrived, and Blunt Empty Venerable had already sensed it!
