Chapter 895: Star stone
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
What was happening inside there?
This time, no one could stay still.
Those who entered Taihu Territory, not only did they not die, they actually became stronger and stronger, leaving the spectators in a trance and full of regret. What exactly was happening?
“You all… have you ever heard of the legend of Taihu Territory being related to boundary spirits?”
“The legend about boundary spirits?”
“There is no such thing… Hold on.” A world esper suddenly took a deep breath, “Could it be the innermost part of Taihu Territory?”
Boom!
Everyone was stunned.
Countless brilliant lights flashed through the sky. Another group of world espers appeared in front of Taihu Territory. They really couldn’t sit still any longer.
“Did they really enter that region?”
“Those lunatics!”
“For three perfect grade boundary spirits to appear in succession, that could only mean that the legend might be true, but that place is something that no one can step into. This batch of people, they’re too crazy!”
“But they seemed to have succeeded!”
“No wonder they were inside for so long!”
Everyone finally understood the big picture of the situation.
No wonder they didn’t exit after one full week. It turned out that this group of people had actually stepped into the most terrifying region. However, can they really return alive?
“Wait for them!”
“If they’re returning, it will be soon.”
“Alright.”
At the entrance of Taihu Territory, a group of world espers sat cross-legged, waiting for them to return. Several security guards, who were preparing to start working, were frightened by their presence.
Taihu Territory.
Everyone was so shocked that it was totally silent, especially when they saw Chen Ge condensed a perfect boundary spirit!
Why did this lunatic get it?!
Obviously, everyone was still afraid of him. Now, with an additional fourth grade boundary spirit…
What kind of character are they?
“It’s actually him.”
King of Fire gritted his teeth.
He had been completely stunned that his fiery anger had reached all the way to his brain. One shock after another, each time his brain got confused by the shock. However, soon he noticed an issue. Wan Cheng, King of Hell, and Chen Ge… why did all three of them have some relations with someone?
Swish!
Swish!
His gaze moved back.
King of Fire suddenly had an unbelievable thought. Could it be that this guy can distinguish between the secret technique of boundary spirits?
Impossible!
Hehe, how is that possible?
King of Fire laughed at himself, but he felt that this possibility was getting bigger and bigger! Recalling Su Hao’s strange expression with those three, King of Fire felt that something was even more amiss.
“Wu Ming, is it possible that you can differentiate between the secret technique of boundary spirits?” King of Fire suddenly broke the silence with an extremely angry tone.
“Huh, what do you mean?” Su Hao raised his eyebrows while maintaining the same composure as usual.
“Hmmphh.” King of Fire sneered, “Wan Cheng, King of Hell and Chen Ge, they all had something to do with you. If this is a coincidence, that seems too unlikely. We all know you have a strong perception. However, if yours is so strong that it can differentiate the secret techniques of boundary spirit…”
“It shouldn’t be an issue to help them pick some powerful ones right?”
King of Fire sneered.
When everyone heard it, they realized! This is too much of a coincidence, isn’t it? Wu Ming’s powerful detection capability was clear to them, and it could also be feasible to distinguish the difference of the secret techniques of boundary spirits. Having this thought, everyone looked at Su Hao suspiciously. Could it be that was the truth?
“You all actually believed his words?” Su Hao shrugged it off.
“Then why don’t you condense a boundary spirit?” King of Fire said with a grin, “You’re the first one to choose, and the ones you picked are probably the strongest ones of all…”
“And then?” Su Hao smiled indifferently.
“Verify it.” King of Fire’s eyes were bloodshot, “Everyone put on their lives to kill the enemies. On what qualification do you have to choose all the strong secret techniques for your own men?”
“Yea!”
“Verify it!”
“It can’t be real right?”
Everyone looked at Su Hao suspiciously.
Su Hao sneered. A group of wild wolves, no matter how many times he rescues them, once it involves a conflict of interest, they would immediately change sides.
However…
Because of this, he didn’t feel guilty at all when he cheated them.
“Alright.” Su Hao smiled indifferently.
“Alright?” King of Fire was stunned for a second.
“En, I thought you wanted me to prove it? Then, I will do so.” Su Hao calmly said as he took out the secret techniques of boundary spirit he had. At this time, King of Fire suddenly stopped him, “If it’s really a fourth grade boundary spirit, then we are at a disadvantage.”
“Yes.”
Everyone suddenly realized this fact.
If Wan Cheng condensed a fourth grade boundary spirit at this moment, then together with Wan Cheng and the others, they would each be holding a perfect boundary spirit. How could they fight them then? So what if Su Hao cheated them? They are the ones cheated. By then, Wu Ming’s side is the one with the upper hand. What could they say?
“Then how do you want me to proceed?” Su Hao asked casually.
“Let someone else prove it.” King of Fire gritted his teeth.
“Alright.” Su Hao nodded and then sneered, “However, this boundary spirit is mine to begin with. For me to hand it over, if it’s not a perfect boundary spirit, hehe, then wouldn’t I lose a boundary spirit? Since you are the one proposing, shouldn’t you show some sincerity?”
King of Fire was stunned.
“Or maybe you’re just greedy for my boundary spirits?” Su Hao smirked, “If that’s the case, then let’s fight!”
“Of course not.” King of Fire quickly denied. This is no joke. He had no support from the others. All they wished for was for some benefits.
“Then show your sincerity.” Su Hao sneered, “Forget about the others, if you show some sincerity by exchanging it with the corresponding value, I will give you these secret techniques of boundary spirits.”
“I…” King of Fire was stunned.
Everyone around him also said, “I think Wu Ming is being logical. Since you want to verify, you need to exchange something equivalent.”
“Instead, King of Fire is hesitating. You can’t be trying to cheat him right?”
“Sigh, this guy has been going back and forth so many times, but Wu Ming saved us each time we’re in danger. Somehow, I have this feeling that King of Fire is trying to trick him.”
“Yea, perhaps he was just lucky.”
Everyone whispered among themselves.
Su Hao looked at the awkward King of Fire. The smile on his face became wider and wider. King of Fire seemed to have noticed this scene that he grasped both hands so tightly that they went pale. Especially when he saw that ridiculous smile on Su Hao, he suddenly came to a realization. Wu Ming was trying to attack him by using the reason of him being insincere.
Sure enough, something was amiss!
King of Fire was affirmed this time that Wu Ming can definitely differentiate the secret techniques of boundary spirit! However, if he wishes to verify it and wants to get the fourth grade boundary spirit from Wu Ming’s hands, he needs to show sincerity…
King of Fire gritted his teeth and pulled out something.
“I will give you this then.”
“Oh?”
Everyone raised their head and was a little surprised, “It’s actually that thing!”
“Star stone!”
Su Hao raised his head and looked at the additional brilliant light coming from King of Fire. This familiar light, Star stone? He hadn’t heard this name before, but that familiar aura somewhat made him able to guess something. Could it be related to that?
“Aowo~”
A soft sound rang in his ear.
Little Bear seemed to feel a familiar aura and finally couldn’t help but move.
“As I predicted.”
Su Hao’s heart moved. Little Bear was hiding inside his pocket. Yes, inside his pocket… After the previous crazy absorption of hurricane force, this thing became so tiny that Su Hao no longer even needed to carry a backpack. Thus, in order to not be noticed, he kept blocking his pocket to prevent Little Bear from poking its head out.
In fact, without him speaking, Little Bear was too scared to peek outside as he could feel a number of world espers nearby. Only at this time, when he felt a familiar aura did he show some signs of movement.
Hurricane stone is the source of hurricane force.
As for Star stone, what exactly is it?
“Star stone, it belongs to the magical Rule Force from the stars. Although only a small amount remains inside the stone, as long as one carries it, whatever curse force, bad luck, disease, all sorts of negative forces will be greatly reduced or even become completely invalid!”
“Even deduction would be weakened several times when encountering it.” King of Fire gritted his teeth, “This should be sufficient to trade for ten secret techniques right?”
Of course, he wasn’t feeling happy with it.
Having survived up to now, how many people had been trying to backstab him from behind? But thanks to this Star stone, he could survive. This was his lucky treasure.
“You all need to add something.” King of Fire looked at Yan Tianyu and Chen Ge, “Since this is an exchange, it needs to be an equal one.”
A few people looked at each other. Obviously, what King of Fire brought out stunned the crowd. This thing is comparable to ten grade three boundary spirits! Since King of Fire had brought it out, they can’t be letting their hand off like that. Not to mention, they all owed Su Hao for saving them earlier.
Just when Yan Tianyu was about to make a suggestion, Su Hao stood up.
“Of course, it matches.” Su Hao smirked and took out three pieces of secret techniques of boundary spirit, “What grade did you say earlier they are?”
“Fourth grade boundary spirit.” King of Fire sneered.
“Alright.” Su Hao smiled, “Although a Star stone is precious, it’s not as good as three fourth grade boundary spirits, right? I am willing to exchange these three to you. Aren’t you still the one profiting?”
“I…” King of Fire was stunned. The way this progressed didn’t seem right.
“But they…” Su Hao played around with those three pieces, “What grade did you say they are?”
“Third grade.” King of Fire immediately changed his mind.
“Oh, then forget about it.” Su Hao shrugged his shoulder, “Since you think they are third grade, then what’s the need to exchange? I want to keep these third grade boundary spirits, what’s the relation with you? I’m not exchanging them.”
Everyone was dumbfounded. Chen Ge and the others were also wiping off their sweat. Yan Tianyu was even more ashamed as he put back the item he was about to take out. Look at him; he could exchange it without adding an additional treasure.
“Hmm, since there is no doubt, then let’s continue our journey.” Su Hao shrugged and looked at the mist in the distance, “Although it’s important to improve one’s strength, staying here for too long doesn’t seem to be a good idea.”
King of Fire’s forehead was full of dark lines.
