Chapter 2127: Chapter 17: Forty Years Later, Demigod Zhao Xing! The Guluo River Has Arrived Too? (2)

He possesses the hand bones of the Xue Rui Fortune God, temporarily achieving the fortune of thirty transformations. It would be a pity not to use it for treasure hunting.

"Ten Thousand Souls Well Secret Realm, Wildfire Dao Barrier..." Zhao Xing noted down in his heart.

Before long, the two arrived at the venue for the tribute banquet, at the center of Moon City, where a flaming Vajra ring appeared.

The Vajra ring had a radius of two hundred meters and stood in the center of the square. Passing through it led into a vast expanse beneath the starry sky.

In the starry sky, seven rainbow bridges connected to the ring, with the other end leading to a majestic palace surrounded by stars—the Yu God Hall.

This tribute feast was to be presided over by Qi Yuan, one of the Mechanical Gods among the Great Divine Officials.

His hosting style was unique, with the palace gate at the end of the rainbow bridge, guarded by two Mechanical Beast Heads with wide-open mouths.

Zhao Xing saw people lining up, throwing items into the left beast head, and then receiving objects from the right beast head before entering the Yu God Hall through the palace gate.

Every person who entered made the clouds atop Yu God Hall blossom with golden light, sometimes large, sometimes small.

Getting closer, Zhao Xing noticed that the left beast head spat out torch-like bone structures with flames at the top, resembling large-sized incense sticks.

"Is the Yu God perhaps the Priest God?" Seeing this, Zhao Xing couldn’t help but be stunned.

Receiving incense easily reminds one of the profession of a priest.

"Not necessarily; many Gods can lend their followers power, not limited to priests," Zhao Xing secretly thought.

Previously, he could borrow Old Qing’s strength; for instance, during the Transmission Realm building, he used the divine power of Qing Yu Zi, acquiring the divine-level Magic Technique in the Molt Bone of the Void Ancestor.

"Heaven Patrol Divine Guard Zhao Xing, please submit your tribute." When it was Zhao Xing’s turn, Venerable Jin Yue, standing beside the right beast head, reminded him.

"Yes." Zhao Xing took out the Storage Ring containing the Bone Spirit Stones, respectfully inserting it into the beast head, and the ring disappeared in an instant.

Immediately, the left beast head spat out a series of torch-like bones, totaling eighteen, with particularly large flames.

Venerable Jin Yue initially did not pay much attention to the new Heaven Patrol Divine Guard, but upon seeing Zhao Xing receive eighteen ’bone incense sticks’, he was astonished.

"Eighteen bone spirit incense, totaling contributions of eighteen thousand square; such a significant harvest in just twenty years?" Venerable Jin Yue couldn’t help but regard Zhao Xing in a higher light.

In contrast, Yu Ying only received a smaller bone spirit incense stick, and merely one piece.

"Proceed with your worship." Venerable Jin Yue’s voice, compared to before, contained a touch of gentleness.

Producing so many bone spirit crystals signified potential.

Maybe he would become an Earth God Official in the future.

"Yes."

Zhao Xing, holding the incense, proceeded with disciplined steps. After entering the palace gate, he ascended a long stairway.

Reaching the top and stepping over the threshold led into the Yu God Hall.

At this moment, all sounds vanished.

Between heaven and earth, only a Divine Statue was radiantly glowing above.

The bone spirit incense quickly burned out, the golden light grew increasingly brilliant, revealing a hazy silhouette.

Zhao Xing could not see clearly, nor did he dare to look up, obediently worshipping: "This subordinate pays respects to the Yu God!"

"Buzz~"

The golden light flickered, and something floated towards him; this was the reward of feedback.

Zhao Xing did not know that when the hazy silhouette bestowed the reward, it glanced at him.

Simultaneously, his inner world seemed to tremble slightly.

However, the entire process was short-lived; Zhao Xing felt something in his hand and was moved away by the golden light.

At the next moment, he appeared in a bright hall, directly seated.

The atmosphere around was noticeably relaxed, with people engaging in conversation and some focused on eating and drinking.

Seated next to him was Venerable Lan Chuan.

As Zhao Xing appeared, Venerable Lan Chuan glanced sideways, slightly surprised.

"Zhao Xing, why are you here?"

"Were you even rewarded with the Ten Thousand Souls Order?"

Venerable Lan Chuan’s gaze fell upon the talisman in Zhao Xing’s hand, becoming more astonished.

Zhao Xing regained his composure: "Lan Chuan Priest, after my worship, I appeared here."

Lan Chuan Priest promptly inquired: "At what level have you reached with the Earth Refining Technique I provided?"

Zhao Xing replied: "The third layer, accomplished."

"Hiss~"

Lan Chuan Priest couldn’t help but inhale sharply, eyes full of disbelief.

"I gave you that Secret Technique only twenty years ago, yet you’ve mastered the third layer?"

"No wonder you are seated here."

Zhao Xing glanced around, realizing that the great hall was filled with demigods of the twelfth or thirteenth rank, and his presence as an Emperor was extremely noticeable.

Most people noticed Zhao Xing’s appearance, casting curious looks, but Venerable Lan Chuan quickly waved his hand, forming an Earth Qi Barrier to block the scrutiny.

"Lan Chuan, don’t be so stingy; what’s the harm in looking?"

"A Divine Official banquet having an Emperor appear, is this under the command of Venerable Lan Chuan?"

"Interesting indeed, Lan Chuan found a treasure."

"..."

Numerous voices reached them.

Venerable Lan Chuan smugly replied: "Shoo, shoo, what’s there to see? If you want to look, go see your own subordinates."

Thoroughly isolating inside and outside, Venerable Lan Chuan focused on Zhao Xing, eyes filled with admiration.

"Zhao Xing, you’ve truly surprised me; I underestimated your potential."

"Venerable, you’re too kind. It’s all thanks to the Taoist Book you left behind teaching me well." Zhao Xing humbly said.

"Hahaha, I’ve given that Earth Refining Technique to numerous subordinates, but now, apart from you, only one other has reached the third layer. You don’t need to be modest." Venerable Lan Chuan was extremely pleased with Zhao Xing’s performance.
