Chapter 454 - 395: Wretched Servant! I’ll Torment You to Death!

Chu Huaixu watched as Xu Ziqing played out a scene of "Xiaoxu Offering Treasure," and after thinking for a moment, didn’t refuse.

From the current situation, it seems that this Donghuang Ring can only be utilized by him?

So, it’s fitting to give it to him.

As for the saying of not accepting rewards without merit, that’s certainly not applicable to him and Xiaoxu.

Family doesn’t hold back from each other!

"I’m just not sure about what this ring’s actual purpose is." Chu Huaixu voiced out.

He tried to use the Black Jade Lotus Platform to activate it, but besides the patterns engraved on it emitting a faint light, nothing else could be seen for now.

Chu Huaixu straightforwardly cast Information Detection on it again.

The system’s response was just three question marks.

Clearly, even with his detection permissions upgraded so many times, it still wasn’t high enough.

"However, listening to Wen Shiyu’s description, it seems the innate supreme treasure has a very high status." The Dead Fox thought to himself.

It seems as though its status is not inferior to a Fruit Position?

Chu Huaixu’s fingers gently rubbed the ring, observing repeatedly, and finally he decided to wear it on his left index finger.

Nangong Yue seeing this, said, "Huaixu, why not let me research it for a few days when the time comes."

"Okay." He immediately agreed.

Nangong Yue smiled and continued, "Even if we ultimately can’t use it, it’s no problem."

"At least the Immortal Venerable on Kunlun’s side will be slightly weakened without a supreme treasure in hand."

Everyone nodded in agreement, thinking that this reasoning was indeed logical.

Only Xiaoxu felt a bit guilty and said:

"That True Monarch Ling Xiao seems to have used this Donghuang Ring."

"Unfortunately, by then I had already lost consciousness and didn’t see the effect of the innate supreme treasure."

The young man didn’t know that even True Monarch Ling Xiao didn’t fully comprehend it...

Xiang Yan chuckled and said, "No matter."

"Perhaps even True Monarch Ling Xiao couldn’t unleash much of its power."

"Its purpose might just be to resist the Fruit Position within Huaixu’s body." The bald Sect Leader speculated.

Nangong Yue listening, suddenly thought of a question.

"Does this Donghuang Ring recognize a master?"

"Huaixu, you should be cautious in your research so as not to make mistakes."

Wen Shiyu, listening by the side, knew it was her cue to perform.

She immediately spoke in a flattering tone, "Elder Nangong, there’s no need for you to worry about this."

"Though the innate supreme treasure looks like a magical treasure, it is fundamentally different from the magical treasures refined by us cultivators."

"It was born from the primordial chaos of heaven and earth, nurtured by the Heavenly Dao, but it’s a dead object and doesn’t possess spirituality."

"Unlike magical treasures, it does not have an artifact spirit."

"This also means there’s no such thing as recognizing a master."

"Moreover, its status is unimaginably high."

"Innate supreme treasures have always been used by those with fate; it belongs to whoever holds it."

"It’s just that all innate supreme treasures are held by the Immortal Venerables."

This is the local custom of Kunlun.

What nonsense about those with fate obtaining it.

The strong obtain it!

Even if someone accidentally acquires an innate supreme treasure, it will definitely be taken by the Immortal Venerable.

——Youth, this opportunity is too great for you to handle!

Chu Huaixu heard this, lowered his head, and looked at the ring in his hand.

He sensed it with the Black Jade Lotus Platform and then probed with the Heart Sword and then spoke:

"It truly seems to not possess spirituality."

"If there really was an artifact spirit, my Heart Sword would certainly be able to sense it."

He had full confidence in the status of his Heart Sword as well.

Are you kidding? In my Sea of Consciousness, the Heart Sword is suspended above the Black Jade Lotus Platform!

In this way, Wen Shiyu’s words should be correct.

After a few more exchanges of words, they began to discuss the distribution of the two Profound Yellow Origin Fragments.

Since they were Xu Ziqing’s spoils of war, naturally, he would distribute them.

The young man, hearing this, couldn’t help but glance at Senior Sister Han.

Filial Xiaoxu’s first thought was definitely to offer one to his "Mother Frost."

Xiang Yan and the others noticed the young man’s gaze and exchanged knowing smiles.

As the Sect Leader, he took the initiative to speak first, "Second Senior Brother shouldn’t take too long to rely on the Origin Fragment previously given by Huaixu to advance to the Ninth Realm."

"Seventh Younger Sister is still in closed-door cultivation in the Purple Bamboo Forest, but the Power of Origin has already been successfully refined."

"If not forcibly suppressing her realm, her advancement to the Ninth Realm is only a matter of time."

"Furthermore, Uncle Zhong Ming’s condition is also getting better and better."

"We haven’t lacked Ninth Realm powerhouses in the Daoist Sect these years."

"But for Ziqing and Shuangjiang, you two are the Heaven’s Destined individuals mentioned in the Daoist Ancestor’s Proverbs, burdened with the task of saving the world."

"You need to grow rapidly."

"Otherwise, when the great calamity of heaven and earth arrives, you will not be able to bear this responsibility."

The Sect Leader said this first, not wanting Xu Ziqing to be troubled.

He knew the young man would still have a conflict and pressure in his heart.

Li Chunsong and others immediately echoed, "What the Sect Leader says is extremely right."

Nangong Yue, as Han Shuangjiang’s mentor, smiled from the side and said, "Shuangjiang possesses the Profound Yin Body; her cultivation speed is naturally swift."

"The Power of Origin can further accelerate the cultivator’s cultivation speed."

"Moreover, she may not take long to break through to the Ninth Realm."

"Even if I get this Profound Yellow Origin Fragment, it may not make my cultivation faster than hers." She half joked, half seriously said.

In fact, it’s really possible!

Wen Shiyu watched this scene from the side and felt unbelievable once again.

If it were in her hometown, the sect elders would have already fought to seize it.

No way would they let a junior mess around like this!

"This Daoist Sect is truly a bizarre sect." She muttered inwardly.

"The sect customs are too strange!"

After the discussion, Xu Ziqing immediately stood up and handed the Origin Fragment to Han Shuangjiang.

"Senior Sister Han, please accept it."

The Big Ice Cube glanced at Chu Huaixu, saw him slightly nod at her, then accepted the item.

"Thank you, Junior Brother Xu."

This great fortune was distributed in such a straightforward manner.

Now, Xu Ziqing was left with nothing but that human skin.

He spread out the human skin, and everyone immediately saw the extremely complex array patterns on it.

Unfortunately, the Array Grandmaster of the Daoist Sect is no longer around.

Wen Shiyu, who was once a Nascent Soul True Monarch, was immediately used by Chu Huaixu as a tool person.

But she truly was quite useless.

She looked repeatedly for a long time but couldn’t make anything of it.

According to Xu Ziqing’s earlier description, due to the Evil Sword’s devouring of everything, some of the magical power of cultivators was absorbed into his body.

Initially, this brought a significant burden to his body, and he didn’t know how to resolve it.

But after he wore the Donghuang Ring and picked up the human skin, with a thought, the mana in his body was immediately extracted and entered the Donghuang Ring.

Wen Shiyu listened to this and thought it would be some kind of grand array that absorbs people’s mana.

This type of array, she knew a bit about as well.

In Kunlun Cave Heaven, the "cannibalism flow" is the mainstream route for cultivation.

Absorbing others’ Golden Cores, Nascent Souls...is a commonplace.

Day and night hard cultivation, nowhere as fast as relying on cannibalism!

Thus, most cultivators have some understanding of such arrays.

But upon closer inspection, the only thing that could be confirmed was: "These array patterns are not the kind that absorbs people’s mana."

"But this servant cannot figure it out either."

She lowered her head, feeling that she was so useless for the first time.

Worried that Chu Huaixu would be displeased with her because of this, she quickly added, shifting the blame, "I think.....this must also be the work of the master’s hand!"

The means of the Immortal Venerable during the Divinity Transformation phase, how could I, a mere Nascent Soul stage, possibly perceive them.

Unexpectedly, her master’s face, showed a smile, and his eyes kept staring at her.

"No matter." Chu Huaixu grinned.

But Wen Shiyu felt a bit creepy.

Sure enough, Chu Huaixu immediately took off the ring on his left hand and said:

"It doesn’t matter if you don’t recognize these array patterns."

"You can wear this Donghuang Ring and then try to pick up that human skin."

"We’ll watch you carefully from the side." He stared at Wen Shiyu, as if looking at a little white mouse.

Aren’t you just a humble servant, can’t be experimented on?
