Chapter 2809: Chapter 2809: Unsealing

"All right, I promise you."

The emaciated old man hesitated for less than ten breaths before agreeing to Fang Bai’s request.

His willingness to guide Fang Bai actually came from the thought of making Fang Bai his granddaughter’s future husband.

In his view, if Fang Bai could undo the Sealing Formation on that Giant Clan Spatial Divine Ring, it would prove he was an extremely formidable Array Master.

And if, under his guidance, Fang Bai could step into the Divine Venerable Realm in a short time, that would further prove his talent and aptitude were excellent.

A young powerhouse like this, his future achievements might not be inferior to his granddaughter’s, and he would be a perfect match for her.

By then, the emaciated old man would be willing to exhaust all his strength to help his granddaughter fulfill her wish and form a Dao companion with Fang Bai.

Thus, under the gaze of the grandfather and granddaughter, Fang Bai began pondering the Sealing Formation on that Giant Clan Spatial Divine Ring in his hand.

In the path of cultivation, once one law is understood, all laws become accessible.

After arriving in the Divine Realm, Fang Bai discovered that the Formations he had created in the Immortal Realm were equally applicable in the Divine Realm.

By the same token, many Formations in the Divine Realm that looked exquisite and ingenious were things Fang Bai could easily break.

Fang Bai held that Spatial Divine Ring of the Giant Clan, frowned and studied it for a moment, then his brows gradually relaxed.

Rongrong had been worrying for Fang Bai, fearing that if he failed to remove the Divine Ring’s Seal, he would be mocked and teased by her grandfather. Now, seeing his brows relax, she knew he must have found a way, and couldn’t help letting out a soft breath of relief; a hint of laughter also surfaced in her bright eyes.

The emaciated old man, however, kept the same expression, stroking his beard with a constant smile.

"Fortunately, I didn’t fail the task."

Dozens of breaths later, Fang Bai let out a light exhale, wiped away the thin sheen of sweat on his forehead, and handed the now-unsealed Divine Ring back to the emaciated old man.

"You unlocked it that quickly?"

Seeing Fang Bai rub his hands over the Giant Clan’s Spatial Divine Ring for a short while and then hand it back, the emaciated old man couldn’t help but be somewhat surprised.

He once again sent his Divine Sense into the Spatial Divine Ring in his hand and found that the Sealing Formation carved into the ring had been completely erased; his Divine Sense could easily enter the Spatial Divine Ring.

"It’s more or less as I expected. That Giant Clan fellow was, after all, a Divine King Realm Expert in life. After years of accumulation, the quantity of Cultivation Resources in this Spatial Divine Ring is quite considerable."

As the emaciated old man spoke, he slanted a glance at Fang Bai and said, "You don’t feel it’s a pity to give up half of the Cultivation Resources?"

Fang Bai smiled and shook his head.

The emaciated old man casually tossed the Spatial Divine Ring to his granddaughter Rongrong beside him and said, "These things are of little use to your grandpa now. You keep it."

Rongrong received that Spatial Divine Ring and swept it once with her Divine Sense; there wasn’t much joy on her face, and she simply tossed it into her own Spatial Divine Ring.

"For a powerhouse in the Divine Realm to advance in realm, it is by no means something achieved in one fell swoop. Here’s how it will be: stay with me for now, and I’ll guide you when I have time."

Leaving these words behind, the emaciated old man turned and strode toward the city ahead.

That city was called Illusory Heaven City, the largest city in the Illusory Heaven Star System and also where the Starlord Hall was located. Tens of millions of Divine Realm experts of various clans lived here, with True God Realm and Divine Venerable Realm experts as the mainstay, and even the figures of Divine King Realm Experts could be seen appearing from time to time.

"Um... my name is Rongrong. What’s your name?"

Fang Bai and Rongrong followed behind the emaciated old man. At first Rongrong lowered her head without speaking, but as she and Fang Bai drew ever closer, practically walking side by side, she took the initiative to speak.

Rongrong seemed quite talkative. Once Fang Bai told her his name, she opened the floodgates, telling Fang Bai her grandfather’s name and honorific title, then spoke of where she and her grandfather had come from and what they intended to do after arriving at Illusory Heaven Star.

Only then did Fang Bai learn that the emaciated old man’s honorific was Great Might Divine King, who had already lived for one hundred thousand years and now had very little lifespan left.

The reason the grandfather and granddaughter had been wandering all over the starry skies was that the Great Might Divine King sought an opportunity to advance in realm, thereby extending his lifespan, or hoped to find some Divine Elixir capable of prolonging lifespan, and then help his granddaughter step into the Divine King Realm, so that he could die without regrets.

However, the Great Might Divine King had at most ten years of lifespan left. To advance another minor realm within ten years was simply impossible.

And Divine Elixirs capable of extending the lifespan of a Divine King Realm Expert were equally extremely hard to find. The grandfather and granddaughter had been traveling the starry skies for many years, time and again filled with hope, only to be disappointed again and again.

This time, they had come to Illusory Heaven Star because they had heard that the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Clan lived on this star, and that Creation Pills of the Divine King Realm refined by fusing the essence blood of Nine-Tailed Divine Foxes could greatly increase the chance of breaking through to the next realm when taken.

Even if one could not advance in realm, so long as one’s strength improved by even a small margin, one’s lifespan could be extended by several decades.

For the Great Might Divine King, this was a rare opportunity. Even though the truth of such rumors couldn’t be verified, they had still come.

Fang Bai himself was an Alchemist and knew that Creation Pills could indeed be used to raise the probability of advancing to the next realm. However, he had never seen a Nine-Tailed Divine Fox, and he was not certain whether Creation Pills refined with the essence of Nine-Tailed Divine Foxes could boost the chance of advancing.

Given Fang Bai’s current Cultivation Level, even with the aid of Divine Fire, he could only barely refine Creation Pills for the Divine Venerable Realm. As for Creation Pills of the Divine King Realm, he simply had no way to produce them.

Even if his realm stepped into the Divine Venerable Realm, the hope of refining Creation Pills of the Divine King Realm that the Great Might Divine King needed would still be slim.

Thus, although Fang Bai was willing to help the Great Might Divine King, he was powerless to do so and could only hope that the grandfather and granddaughter would be able to find a Nine-Tailed Divine Fox, obtain its blood, and then invite a Divine King Realm Alchemist to refine Creation Pills for them.

Not long after, Fang Bai and Rongrong followed the Great Might Divine King into Illusory Heaven City and found a Superior inn, where they temporarily settled.

"This is your first time in Illusory Heaven City. If you feel bored, you can stroll around the city. I’m going to inquire about the Nine-Tailed Divine Fox Clan first."

Leaving these words, the Great Might Divine King left the inn alone.

Fang Bai and Rongrong looked at each other for a moment, neither speaking.

"How about... we go take a look at the Cultivation Resource Exchange Market in the city?"

After a short pause, Rongrong suggested.

"All right."

Fang Bai smiled and nodded.

Whenever Divine Realm experts came to a star, strolling through that star’s Cultivation Resource Exchange Market was almost something they had to do when traveling the starry skies.

Fang Bai and Rongrong were no exception.

They went together to the Cultivation Resource Exchange Market within Illusory Heaven City and found that the vast majority of experts trading there had a Cultivation Level at the Divine Venerable Realm, and the items being traded were mainly Divine Elixirs, Divine Artifacts, and Beast Cores of Starry Sky Behemoths.

Fang Bai noticed that among the items being exchanged by Divine Realm experts, yellow Divine Crystals were used the most.

Some Divine King Realm Experts were actually conducting their trades with green Divine Crystals.

Green Divine Crystals contained far more Divine Power than yellow Divine Crystals and were a hundred times more precious. Since arriving in the Divine Realm, this was Fang Bai’s first time seeing them.

"Actually, there are some green Divine Crystals in my grandpa’s Spatial Divine Ring as well. If you like them, I’ll ask him to give you a few pieces later."

Seeing Fang Bai staring at the green Divine Crystals without looking away, clearly quite tempted, Rongrong said with a smile.
