Chapter 887: Chapter 870: Seizing the Wreckage of the 9-Layer Blood Tower! (Additional Chapter 23)

Hundreds of meters in size, the Star Remnants fell into the lake, drawing the attention of many warriors upon the Spiritual Lotus, such gigantic remnants are only found in the Beyond Realm Celestial.

The Star Remnants that actually fell onto the Desolate Land, almost all of them had burned up completely or only a tiny piece remained, making them extremely rare.

"Ao Qiong, where does this meteorite come from, from Beyond Realm Celestial Space?"

Finally, a warrior raised his voice to inquire about the origins of this huge piece of Star Remnants.

"This piece of Broken Star hails from the Star Sea Marquis Clan," Ao Qiong said with a chuckle, "It fell hundreds of years ago near the Star Sea Sand Field of the Star Sea Marquis Clan; today, they put it out for exchange for treasures that would be helpful for the tribe’s development; as for the rest, I need not say more."

"So it comes from the Star Sea Marquis Clan and not from Beyond Realm Celestial Space; then, the value of this piece of Star Remnants is significantly reduced. The Star Remnants that fall on our Human World Desolate Land are almost like a piece of scrap, other than being hard, or containing a small amount of Meteorite Divine Gold, they are almost of no use."

"It can’t be said like that; this piece of Star Remnants is so huge, if it could be completely refined, perhaps the refined Meteorite Divine Gold might be enough to forge a Half King Level Divine Weapon."

With the words of the elder Ao Qiong, the spiritual wills above the lake began to interact intensely, mutually discussing the value of this piece of Star Remnants.

"However, if it really contains a Star Core, that would be a huge fortune!" A warrior said the same.

"If there was a Star Core, the Star Sea Marquis Clan would have brought it forth, moreover, it fell on our Human World hundreds of years ago, the Star Sea Marquis Clan would have thoroughly investigated it by now."

"Gentlemen, in such a huge piece of Star Remnants, perhaps there really is a Star Core."

Seeing the reaction of the many warriors, the elder Ao Qiong chuckled, surrounded by Strong Ones who had lived for who knows how long, and naturally had their own calculations in mind.

Indeed, their speculations were not off; celestial bodies that fell onto the Desolate Land were almost all burned up, and those with residual Star Cores were indeed rare.

In the past, there were larger Star Remnants, but most were scorched into crystals of meteorite, which is why these disputing warriors were hesitant to act.

As for the intersecting spiritual wills around, Xiao Chen was clearly aware of them, but at this moment, he already knew that this piece of Star Remnants contained a Star Core.

Likewise, he also learned about the Star Sea Marquis Clan, where the Star Sea Sand Field is located, and almost every year, celestial meteorites fall there, though most are worthless.

Stars, too, have a life cycle; they also undergo generation, growth, and destruction, and a Star Core is the core of a star, the crystal of power absorbed over endless eras.

Even the youngest stars have lived for tens to hundreds of millions of years, like the great sun hanging in the sky, already immortal after countless eons.

Therefore, the energy contained within a Star Core is absolutely immense, enough to alarm even the Supreme Kings.

"Ao Qiong, what kind of treasures does the Star Sea Marquis Clan need to exchange for this broken star?"

Gathering his mind, Xiao Chen’s voice traveled across the Spiritual Lotus Pavilion, echoing over the lake.

Hm?

Hearing a warrior speak up, the surroundings quieted somewhat, many eyes turning towards Xiao Chen’s location.

Hearing the voice, Ao Qiong’s gaze turned to Xiao Chen, surprised that Xiao Chen was the first to offer.

"At least a Spirit Item of a Heavenly Grade or above," Ao Qiong’s voice resonated around, pausing before adding, "Priority is given to those Spirit Items that aid the Divine Soul and Martial Arts Tower."

As he said this, Ao Qiong glanced again, clearly because Xiao Chen had previously produced three Heavenly Grade Spiritual Root Nine Revolutions Divine Soul Fruit Trees.

"I am willing, on behalf of the Wu Hou Clan, to offer two Multicolored Sky Mending Fruits and one Seven-colored Sky Mending Fruit to exchange for this broken star."

However, before Xiao Chen could speak, a voice rang out, and immediately, the several warriors who were about to bid halted, curiosity rising in their eyes, evidently interested to see the developments to come.

Multicolored Sky Mending Fruit can mend the Martial Arts Tower from the fourth to sixth grade postnatally, and Seven-colored Sky Mending Fruit can mend seventh to ninth grades, although all are postnatal. Only the Nine-colored Sky Mending Fruit has the effect of transforming the acquired to the congenital.

Watching the three glowing Multicolored and Seven-colored Spirit Fruits outside the Wu Hou Clan’s Spiritual Lotus, Xiao Chen sneered; the Sky Mending Fruit below Seven-colored might be rare, but for the Legends sitting here, it was not hard to obtain.

Even in his own Mountain and River Seal Shop, there were fruit trees of Multicolored Sky Mending Fruit, and presently, he had also cultivated more than ten plants.

As for the Seven-colored Sky Mending Fruit Tree, due to the restrictions of the Mountain and River Seal, he was currently unable to elevate the Multicolored Sky Mending Fruit Tree to Seven-colored, which reinforced Xiao Chen’s determination to acquire this broken star.

Humm!

In Xiao Chen’s hands appeared a Jade Box, turning into a stream of light heading toward Ao Qiong on the Spiritual Lotus Pavilion.

"Ao Qiong, I wonder if the contents of this Jade Box can exchange for this piece of broken Star Remnants."

Xiao Chen didn’t pay attention to the warriors of the Wu Hou Clan, instead directly handing the item in his hands to Ao Qiong.

"Hm?"

Accepting the jade box, Ao Qiong did not delay; he too wanted to see what other fine items Xiao Chen could produce.

Click!

It glowed with purple light, as lustrous as purple Luli, about a foot long.

Purple Crystal Ascendant Vine!

This was exactly what Xiao Chen had produced, and it was more than three thousand years old.

A trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes, but just moments later Ao Qiong had already regained his composure. Purple Crystal Ascendant Vine, his Turtle Head King Division also possessed.

But such treasures, capable of innately enhancing the quality of the Martial Arts Tower, which tribe would find them too many? Especially those that were more than three thousand years old.

On the crystal-clear purple jade roots, two tender shoots had sprouted, both already a thousand years old; if separated, they would form two new Purple Crystal Ascendant Vines.

"If no one else bids, this Broken Star shall belong to Gu Yuan." After closing the jade box, Ao Qiong’s voice resonated once more.

Although he too was puzzled as to why Xiao Chen was keen on obtaining this Broken Star, the moment the Star Sea Marquis Clan presented this damaged star, their strong ones had already investigated it.

They discovered nothing special, yet it indeed contained Meteorite Divine Gold, albeit not in great amounts.

This hundred-zhang-sized wreckage could at most yield a few fist-sized Meteorite Divine Gold pieces, insufficient to fully forge a Half King Level Divine Weapon. If it were not so, the Turtle Head King Division would have long since swallowed up this star wreckage internally.

"Lord Ao Qiong, I, from Nest Marquis Clan, offer two more Seven-Color Sky Mending Fruits."

"Not enough!"

The Turtle Head sneered, as acquired enhancements could hardly compare with innate beginnings—let alone a three-thousand-year-old Ascendant Vine; even within his Turtle Head King Division, the stock of such level of Purple Crystal Ascendant Vine barely breached a dozen.

Although Purple Crystal Ascendant Vines all had the effect of enhancing Martial Arts Tower quality, the older they were, the stronger was their efficacy, and higher the degree to which they could enhance.

"If nobody else intervenes, this broken star shall belong to Gu Yuan."

Ao Qiong did not display Xiao Chen’s jade box, and even if not for the rules, this Purple Crystal Ascendant Vine would still be coveted by his Turtle Head Merchant Guild.

"What exactly is it?"

At this moment, all the warriors present were interested in the jade box produced by Xiao Chen, though they dared not question Ao Qiong.

Finally, no more bids came from Nest Marquis Clan’s warrior—two Bicolor and three Seven-Color Sky Mending Fruits, which already represented a significant value, certainly more so than the oddity Xiao Chen had presented.

If refining Meteorite Divine Gold was the sole purpose of this star wreckage, it surely wouldn’t warrant such a significant cost. Since Xiao Chen was compelled into offering a substantial price, his objective had been achieved; this was merely due to harboring a grudge against Xiao Chen’s earlier acquisition of the Spirit Plant Master’s secret method.

Hum!

Suddenly, within Xiao Chen’s Spiritual Lotus Pavilion, a clear light spilled, covering the entire star wreckage.

As the water surface churned, the next moment, the enormous star wreckage was absorbed into the Mountain River Seal—Xiao Chen couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Starry Core—an object even kings coveted, appeared at the trade fair today, probably because the kings of the Turtle Head Merchant Guild had not personally investigated this broken star, allowing him a tremendous advantage.

Boom!

The Mountain and River Seal Space, with a roar, saw the hundreds of yards’ large star wreckage fall, now secured in his possession, finally, settling the dust.

"Luli, integrate this Starry Core into the Mountain River Seal as soon as possible and repair the Mountain and River Seal World."

While keeping an eye on the outside trade fair, Xiao Chen’s spirit constantly communicated with Luli.

"Yes, Master."

As the ripples on the lake’s surface gradually calmed, Ao Qiong’s voice resonated once more, though the following few spirit items were not of urgent need to Xiao Chen—thus, his mind was mostly immersed within the Mountain River Seal, waiting for its power to recover.

"This treasure, hailing from an ancient tribe in the midlands of the Human Realm, indeed is a unique Spiritual Treasure, the Fusion Blood Tower."

Before long, Ao Qiong’s voice resonated again, now holding a palm-sized stone tower.

"The Ninefold Fusion Blood Tower, named after fusion blood, through ancient eras, alien races utilized our human race as nurture and Blood Food, refining our human blood and bones to enhance strength; similarly, our human race also possessed methods to refine alien races to enhance strength."

"This Ninefold Fusion Blood Tower belongs to our human race’s ancient instrument. It can contain alien blood and bones to fuse into purified blood energy, enhancing strength, even capable of paralleling Elixirs."

Of course, refining alien blood and bones to enhance strength also has some limitations, such as impure Qi-blood, requiring extensive time to refine, and even potential impacts from residual alien energies hidden deep within the flesh.
