Chapter 899: Chapter 882 Apology Gift The Depths of the Fallen Dragon!

[The chieftain asks for subscriptions! Seeking recommendations, throw a vote if you have one][This update is to make up for yesterday’s, Sheng Jiang book friends even talked about interest, there’s no more interest now, the principal chieftain can’t even pay it back]The spirit tea produces mist, the tea bitter yet sweet in taste, slightly bitter at the first sip but the aftertaste is pleasantly sweet. With a single gulp, a warm current rushes through the body, cleansing from skin to marrow.

So Xiao Chen was there, tasting the spirit tea grown in the small world of Divine Marquis Palace, while listening to the account of Divine Marquis Han Qian.

After a moment, Xiao Chen chuckled lightly, Divine Marquis Han Qian actually came on behalf of the Legendary Marquis Department to plead on their behalf.

However, he had already completely forgotten about the issues involving the Legendary Marquis Department, not taking them seriously at all.

Indeed, this was the case, as the Legendary Marquis Department was located in the Eastern Wasteland Region, and just like the Border Wasteland Region, separated by the endless vast land. Even if there was a dispute between the two great clans over trade matters, making light of the warriors from the Legendary Marquis Department was already a thing of the past to him.

Moreover, he intentionally revealed his status as a Divine Marquis, naturally serving as a warning to the Legendary Marquis Department not to linger on the issue. He had not expected they would be so frightened as to ask a Divine Marquis to come and persuade him.

"Xiao Divine Marquis, the former old chieftain of the Legendary Marquis Department was an old friend of mine. We fought side by side on the Hundred Clans Battlefield. Now that the old friend has long passed away, and the younger generation has been shortsighted and offended you, I ask you to show them some mercy,"

Divine Marquis Han Qian spoke out, and at the same time, his hand glowed with a blue light, instantly causing ten jade boxes to appear in front of Xiao Chen, shining with spirit light as a faint aura spilled out.

"I’ve heard that Xiao Divine Marquis is searching for spirit items. These are all spirit items presented by the younger generation of the Legendary Marquis Department as an apology."

"Hmm?"

Xiao Chen hummed softly, his gaze turning to the jade boxes.

Pop!

He opened one of the boxes, and immediately streams of green divine brilliance sprinkled out, revealing a pool of emerald-green crystal inside.

The Thousand-Year Tree Heart Spring!

The rich vitality spilled out, and even with a light inhalation, Xiao Chen felt his flesh and blood becoming livelier.

Clearly, this Thousand-Year Tree Heart Spring was produced by the divine Wutong tree of the Legendary Marquis Department. It had the same effect as millennia of clear skies.

That was, it could improve a warrior’s lifespan. Xiao Chen felt the Thousand-Year Tree Heart Spring before him, about fifty drops in total. For warriors below the sixth heaven of Towering Realm, each drop could extend life by one year. Of course, the stronger one’s power, the lesser the effect of the tree heart spring would be.

Pop!

Then, another jade box was opened, revealing a piece of black-as-ink stone, the size of a thumb, but emitting a powerful swallowing force.

Swallowing Divine Gold!

A sparkle flashed in Xiao Chen’s eyes. It seemed that the Legendary Marquis Department was really laying down a considerable investment to gain his favor. These were just the first two boxes, and there were eight more behind them, even if they were not comparable to these two, they should at least be spirit items of the same rank.

His gaze turned to Divine Marquis Han Qian, and as their eyes met, Xiao Chen naturally had a flash of understanding. The Legendary Marquis Department must have spent a significant sum to ask Divine Marquis Han Qian to come and plead their case.

Regarding what Divine Marquis Han Qian said about being intimate friends with the former old chieftain of the Legendary Marquis Department, Xiao Chen believed it. However, the gifts Divine Marquis Han Qian received for this persuasion trip surely wouldn’t be inferior to the ones before him.

If the warriors of the Legendary Marquis Department knew that he hadn’t taken them seriously at all, and even if the Legendary Marquis Department did not make another move, this cause and effect would thus be concluded. I wonder what the outcome would be.

Plus the price paid to ask Divine Marquis Han Qian to make a move, even if the Legendary Marquis Department has a legacy of tens of thousands of years, it would surely be a heavy blow.

But this was not a matter of concern for Xiao Chen, as the world is inherently untroubled, it is only people who bring trouble upon themselves. He waved his hand grandly, taking the ten jade boxes before him into the Mountain River Seal.

"Since it involved an acquaintance of an elder, let us let bygones be bygones," Xiao Chen said softly with a smile to Divine Marquis Han Qian.

"Good!" Divine Marquis Han Qian likewise nodded in agreement, overjoyed beyond measure.

As Xiao Chen said, he and the former old chieftain of the Legendary Marquis Department had once fought bloodily on the Hundred Clans Battlefield, but the old chieftain of the Legendary Marquis Department had long been dead for hundreds of years, so how profound could their relationship be now?

Luckily, the present chieftain of the Legendary Marquis Department was sensible, offering a piece of divine gold, not just ordinary divine gold, but top-tier Crimson Flame Divine Gold, the divine material for forging top-tier semi-king weapons.

Although it was contrary to the Law of Ice he had comprehended, with this top-tier Crimson Flame Divine Gold, he could trade with others for a piece of top-tier Golden Divine Ice to enhance his mid-grade level semi-king Ice Frost Sword.

Besides this piece of Crimson Flame Divine Gold, there were a few other treasures; otherwise, he would not have come to Xiao Chen’s place, especially since he and Xiao Chen were not acquainted.

"By the way, Xiao Divine Marquis, you haven’t visited the God King Stage yet, have you?"

This spirit tea, produced by the small world of Divine Marquis Palace, was indeed extraordinary. Xiao Chen and Divine Marquis Han Qian continued to sip the spirit tea, discussing many matters.

"Indeed, I have only been at the Divine Marquis Palace for a few days, and I am not very familiar with the entire place," Xiao Chen nodded.

"The God King Stage is where the first warrior of our human race to receive the title of God King by fate’s decree, gained enlightenment. It’s connected to the origin of our human race’s destiny. It helps warriors comprehend the mysteries of destiny more deeply," Han Qian Divine Marquis spoke, echoing the words of Luo Mu Divine Marquis as he tirelessly extolled the benefits of the God King Stage.

"To ascend the God King Stage, aside from the one opportunity for enlightenment granted to a warrior upon their promotion to Divine Marquis, any further desires to comprehend its mysteries require using merit points for exchange, each time a hundred thousand merit points!"

Pfft!

Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen spat out the Spirit Tea he was about to drink. To ascend the God King Stage for enlightenment actually required a hundred thousand merit points each time, which Luo Mu Divine Marquis had not mentioned.

Thinking of his current merit points, which were still less than ninety thousand and the secret techniques of the Purple Gold Battle Body he needed to exchange for, Xiao Chen felt for the first time that earning enough merit points was a significant and long-term responsibility.

"However, Divine Marquis Xiao need not be discouraged. When a warrior is promoted to Divine Marquis, the first pilgrimage to the God King Stage is practically a blessing bestowed by the Divine Marquis Palace. Moreover, the first ascent to the God King Stage is when the deepest comprehension occurs. After that, even with sufficient merit points to ascend the God King Stage, the enlightenment received will gradually weaken."

A few breaths later, Xiao Chen calmed down, his mind racing with thoughts. It seemed that near the time of his return to the Gu Yuan Tribe, he needed to visit the God King Stage at least once to see what divine qualities it truly possessed.

After chatting for several hours, Han Qian Divine Marquis left contentedly, feeling that meeting Xiao Chen, the newly promoted Divine Marquis, was a trip well worth it.

Especially since Xiao Chen had been granted the title of Divine Marquis even before ascending to the legendary realm of warriors, a sight comparable to the current master of the Divine Marquis Palace, Sun-slaying God King. It even led the Sun-slaying God King to appear in person, guiding the branding of the Divine Marquis seal, all signifying Xiao Chen’s extraordinary nature.

Moreover, when he had received his title of Divine Marquis, his strength was at the latter stages of the ninth level of Towering Realm. Despite this, the trials that descended upon him during his investiture still made him shudder when he thought about them to this very day.

Now, he greatly appreciated the actions of the Qi Wu Marquis Department. If it weren’t for those who were shortsighted enough to provoke Xiao Chen, how would he have obtained these treasures and incidentally made Xiao Chen’s acquaintance?

...

In the depths of Dragon Fall Mountain Range.

Five hundred thousand miles away, at the base of an overgrown ancient mountain, ancient trees towered into the sky, with thick vines as large as pythons hanging down. A rich aura of vastness continuously seeped out.

The aura emanating from within was incredibly wild. The bark on these ancient trees was cracked, mottled and fierce, like split open mouths.

And from these cracked barks, new trunks would grow, which, after countless years, would crack again, giving rise to new trunks.

Layer upon layer, with thick, mottled bark becoming tree burls that were several yards, even dozens of yards in diameter. However, these were all common ancient trees, and while they had grown for a long time, they had not yet developed spirituality.

At this moment, about thirty feet high in one ancient tree, there was a tree burl around fifteen feet in size, hollow inside, forming a natural tree hollow.

In the hollow, there lay a golden patterned demonic bear, but on its face, human-like features could faintly be distinguished.

"Damn it, the depths of Dragon Fall Mountain Range are truly terrifying," the bear mumbled. Yet in the next moment, this demonic bear astonishingly spoke in human language, cursing, and did not forget to shrink further into the hollow while doing so.

"Had I known earlier, I would not have ventured this deep into the mountain range," it continued, complaining with a mournful face.

"Alas, although I promised Master and my junior sister that I would catch an Azure Luan Bird for her, I did not anticipate such danger. Had I known, I would not have spoken so boastfully; now I must pay the price for my rash words!" lamented Huang Xiaotian, Xiao Chen’s fourth disciple, who was sent by Xiao Chen’s command to delve deep into the Dragon Fall Mountain Range in search of a suitable guardian beast for the Gu Yuan Tribe.

"No, I cannot return like this; I must find a suitable exotic beast clan, at the very least a Desolate Wild exotic kind. Otherwise, how could I, the prestigious fourth young master of the Gu Yuan Tribe, face our tribe people?" The face of the golden patterned demonic bear suddenly concentrated its features tighter, with its small bear eyes glaring incessantly.

Xiao Chen, having sent his disciples on a training expedition, naturally would not leave them completely to their own devices; each of them had a teleportation token from the End of the World Tower.

Although the Gu Yuan Tribe possessed the Mountain River Seal, Xiao Chen was now far away in the Eastern Emperor Domain and unable to attend to these matters, making the token from the End of the World Tower ideally suited for use within the Border Wasteland Region.

"So be it, it has to be that. Junior sister only asked for an Azure Luan Bird, but if I could bring back a clan of Azure Luan Birds for the tribe, she would surely be delighted and stop bringing up my shortcomings," he decided quickly.

Soon, the features that were bunched together spread out, and Huang Xiaotian merged his body with that of the golden patterned demonic bear, not letting out even the slightest trace of human aura.

In the Vast Ancient Forest, where evildoers roamed free, if any human aura were to leak, it would instantly attract a multitude of vicious beasts.
