Chapter 1668: Chapter 613: Natal Magic Item, First Glimpse of Marvels_3

Amidst the swirling thoughts, Luo Chen vaguely caught sight of boundless golden light; it was endless wealth!

With a leap, Luo Chen jumped out of the Primordial Chaos Tripod.

He looked at the great cauldron beneath him, excitement written all over his face.

"This cauldron truly is like a tiger gaining wings for me!"

In the corner, Black King instantly straightened his neck and called out, "Congratulations, master! Felicitations, master!"

"Haha, you evil beast, at least you know how to read people!"

It had to be said, this time Black King’s flattery was well-timed.

Overjoyed, Luo Chen casually tossed the blue armor plate from his body towards Black King.

Black King widened his eyes. Could it be...

He had already opened his mouth wide, "Thank you, master, for the gift—"

Suddenly, the armor plate froze in mid-air.

Luo Chen smiled and summoned the armor plate back.

"Although this item doesn’t suit my Qi Power, it’s a lower-grade defense magic item nonetheless, worth a fortune. Selling it would better enhance my reputation as the Tool Casting Master, Qingyang Zi. Giving it to you would be quite a waste."

Black King’s ecstatic expression instantly deflated, as though drenched in cold water.

Luo Chen shook his head with a laugh.

"Well then, considering you’ve guarded my home and watched my fire and furnace, while you may not have merit, you’ve certainly labored hard. On Quyang Island, there are plenty of complete water-element demon beast corpses. In a few days, I’ll open the furnace and refine a batch of top-grade Emperor Liquor for you!"

Upon hearing this, Black King perked up again!

Top-grade Emperor Liquor!

It’d been years since he last had some.

That stuff might not appear to be of high grade, but accumulated over time, it continuously tapped into the depths of his bloodline power.

The reason Black King was able to climb step by step from a low-bloodline Black Scaled Flood Dragon to his current status, even surpassing the once more formidable Tianxuan Fighting Bird, was due to his consumption of Emperor Liquor far exceeding Tianxuan’s.

Compared to external items, he valued his own physical improvement more.

"Go outside first; I need to sort through my cultivation plan moving forward."

After a jubilant Black King left, Luo Chen collected a slew of treasures and calmed his thoughts into a peaceful state.

Now that a new function of the Primordial Chaos Tripod was revealed, he had to consider how best to maximize its utility.

This was no exercise in futility.

It could expand his financial resources, improve his Tool Casting Technique, and finally feed back into increasing his cultivation level and strength.

As such, careful planning was necessary; no room for sloppiness.

...

Three months later.

On the coastal beach, a Nu Guan and a Red-Robed Daoist walked side by side.

The graceful Ink White Bamboo Robe trailed behind her, unstained by a speck of sand or dust.

The Nu Guan’s gaze rested on the enormous figure in the vast ocean, swallowing and exhaling abundant Spirit Qi, causing the seawater to surge.

Her voice carried both admiration and envy.

"Qingyang Zi, your spiritual pet is truly extraordinary! I observe its realm, and it surpasses both yours and mine. It even gives me the feeling that its potential is infinite. Is this truly just an ordinary Black Scaled Giant Python?"

Luo Chen laughed heartily, "I suppose I’m lucky. Though Black King’s origins were unremarkable, he excelled in diligent cultivation. Thus, he achieved the spectacle of transforming from python to flood dragon and inhaling the ocean’s majesty."

As he spoke, his gaze occasionally drifted to Black King’s exposed body above the water.

Unlike his initial impressions of the pitch-black beast, its scales now appeared increasingly profound, the white belly displaying patterns resembling leafy vines or mountain rock textures.

Especially the crown of its head!

The original lone horn remained menacing, but next to it, a fleshy bulge had swelled, as though a second dragon horn was about to emerge.

The formidable aura faintly revealed itself!

The only surprise was that despite years of cultivation, it had yet to develop the so-called four dragon claws.

According to Black King’s explanation, this was partly due to bloodline influences and partly attributed to the transformation caused by devouring Cliff Serpent corpses.

Desolate Beast Cliff Serpents were inherently limbless.

As Luo Chen pondered, Lu Shanjun—in his companion’s role—suddenly remarked, "You only have three months left in your tenure, correct?"

Luo Chen’s lips curled slightly, "Indeed, three months from now, I can return to the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range. I’ll have another five years of leisure then."

Lu Shanjun blinked, "Friend, are you at all concerned about the exorbitant rent for Eight Hundred Li Penghu? Don’t you plan to increase your Star Level to secure more discounts?"

"Thank you, Lu Shanjun, for your kind concern." Luo Chen responded with a confident smile, waving it off. "I have my ways of earning money; a little rent poses no problem for me."

Lu Shanjun sighed with emotion.

"For someone like you—powerful and infamous, with Golden Core servants, Demon King pets, and mastery of finance—you truly are an anomaly among us rogue cultivators! Perhaps even the Supreme Elders of Golden Core Great Sects rival you, but when it comes to freedom, they fall short of your carefree lifestyle."

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, redirecting his gaze back to Lu Shanjun’s refined face.

"Friend, speak directly; don’t hold back."

Caught in his intentions, Lu Shanjun’s expression turned slightly awkward. After clearing his throat, he spoke:

"I have a business proposal to discuss with you."
