King of Gods

“Idiotic humans, no matter how much trash you collect, all of you will die if you don’t finish the mission within a month.” The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s voice made the elites and geniuses, who were excitedly mining, hacking away, or picking items, feel cold. The voice was like a bucket of cold water that was poured over their heads.

Some of the geniuses and elites stopped what they were doing as a dangerous sensation filled their hearts. Not very long ago, they barely survived the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon, and they only had one month to live.

“Trash?” Nan Gongsheng, who was cutting the Sky Rhyme Bamboo, felt his face twitch. All the other elites who were cutting the bamboo started moving quicker as urgency appeared in their hearts.

Miao!

The little thieving cat unwillingly put away the Shadow Kill Imperial Dagger and returned to Zhao Feng’s shoulder.

“We can’t waste our time on the outer edges of Xie Yang Palace.”

Zhao Feng stood on a tall bamboo shoot, and he had a rough estimate of Xie Yang Palace’s situation from the inspection he did a moment ago.

It wasn’t hard to tell from the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon’s tone that the depths of Xie Yang Palace had much greater fortune. However, regardless of that, their lives came first. If one couldn’t protect themselves, then it didn’t matter how many resources they obtained.

“Let’s go.”

Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng headed toward the depths of Xie Yang Palace. The Black Destruction Serpent Dragon had given them a rough drawing of Xie Yang Palace before they entered.

Although Xie Yang Palace sounded like a palace, it was actually an entire individual world with many of its own laws. The more important places had the God’s Forbidden Array protecting them.

“We need to enter Xie Yang Palace’s more important areas in order to find the key to the Yuan Sealing Divine Chain, as well as the core of the God’s Forbidden Array.”

A cold light flashed through Zhao Feng’s eyes. When the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon gave them this task and threatened them, a plan started to form in Zhao Feng’s heart.

Once this plan succeeds, not only will everyone be safe, we might also be able to counterattack the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon…. Zhao Feng thought in his heart.

While the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon was unrivalled, Xie Yang Palace was a God’s palace. If they used it well, they probably had a chance to counterattack.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng headed toward the depths of Xie Yang Palace. Nan Gongsheng didn’t know that the purple-haired youth next to him already had the outline of a courageous plan to deal with the Black Destruction Serpent Dragon.

The two paused after flying for another couple dozen miles.

There was a path to some flower pots and pavilions that were made from a glittering stone.

“Flashing Emerald!” Zhao Feng immediately recognized this weird material.

Flashing Emerald was a top material to craft weapons, and it could strengthen the power of weapons. It was extremely rare in the outside world. Some peak-tier Earth-grade weapons required Flashing Emerald, and here it was being used to make a path in Xie Yang Palace.

“Let’s go.” Zhao Feng resisted the temptation and led Nan Gongsheng further in.

They met many other temptations and fortunes along the way, and they almost wanted to stop and take some.

“Don’t rush. There’s definitely even greater fortune deeper in Xie Yang Palace.”

Zhao Feng took a deep breath. After all, they had only just entered the God’s palace, and all these bricks and flowers they saw were of the lowest tier. Zhao Feng believed that the truly important treasures were further in.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

At the same time, several elite groups were also heading toward the depths of Xie Yang Palace, but because the laws in Xie Yang Palace were extremely powerful, even Void God Realm Kings could only jump around since they couldn’t fly. Therefore, their speed wasn’t very fast.

Half a day later:

“Hmm?”

A dazzling pond appeared in their sight. The pond had waves moving through it, and there was a patch of white lotuses with lotus fruits.

They could feel a surge of pure Yuan Qi before they even got close. These white lotuses were definitely not normal, and some of the pure white petals gave off a calm and soothing white glow. The green leaves around them also gave off a dazzling green light and radiated a strong surge of lifeforce. The lotus roots in the pond were as smooth as jade and made one want to give them a bite.

“Green Water Sky Lotus! It’s that legendary rare lotus?” A group flew over right at this moment. The leader was a bald male in black battle robes – Jiu Wuji of Nine Darkness Palace.

“Green Water Sky Lotus!” Zhao Feng and Nan Gongsheng looked at each other with surprise.

In terms of rarity, the Green Water Sky Lotus could be compared to the Sky Water Crystal Lotus, but it was slightly better in terms of effect. However, there were at least several hundred Green Water Sky Lotuses in the pond; in other words, comparable to several hundred Sky Water Crystal Lotuses.

Hu~~

Everyone present couldn’t help but take in a deep breath.

“The petals of a Green Water Sky Lotus can be used for many things. They can cleanse and purify the soul, heal hidden injuries and poisons, and increase one’s state of existence….”

“The fruit formed by the Green Water Sky Lotus can help form Soul Intent, and it’s beneficial even for Void God Realm Kings. The leaves can also heal injuries very effectively.”

Those from Nine Darkness Palace were excited and tempted.

The Green Water Sky Lotus could be used for many things. The petals, lotus fruits, and even the leaves had good effects. Its overall value exceeded even the Sky Water Crystal Lotus.

“The Green Water Sky Lotus can help consolidate our strength.” Zhao Feng decided to stay.

If it was a normal resource, he wouldn’t stay that long if the value wasn’t insanely high. However, the Green Water Sky Lotus would be useful in consolidating Zhao Feng’s and Nan Gongsheng’s strength. The lotus fruits could help Zhao Feng consolidate and recover his Emperor Intent.

At the same time, the lotus fruits could help condense Nan Gongsheng’s Soul Intent. In addition, the petals could cleanse the wicked energy from the Evil God’s Crystal.

One had to know that Nan Gongsheng was only a little bit away from breaking through to the late stages of the Void God Realm.

“What are those lotus roots?” Those from Nine Darkness Palace stood next to the pond, and their gaze landed on the lotus roots in the pond. The lotus roots had a smooth glow like the snow-white skin of a goddess; it was extremely attractive.

Sou! Sou!

Right at this moment, another group flew over. The leader was a pretty purple-haired girl. Zhao Feng recognized her as Ji Lan from the one of the Eight Big Families, the Ji Family.

A faint purple haze spun in her eyes as she inspected the pond, and her body shook slightly.

“It’s actually Green Water Sky Lotuses?”

“Those snow-white lotus roots growing with the Green Water Sky Lotuses… could they be the legendary Spiritual Flesh Snow Jade Root?”

Ji Lan’s expression changed dramatically after a close inspection.

Spiritual Flesh Snow Jade Root. A small number of people present recalled this term, and their hearts shook. “The legend says… a Spiritual Flesh Snow Jade Root can create a peerless physical body?”

According to ancient records, some experts used the Spiritual Flesh Snow Jade Root to form their physical bodies, and their chances of breaking through to the Mystic Light Realm were twice as high as someone with a normal body.

Many people started to discuss in shock. The Spiritual Flesh Snow Jade Root didn’t have much of an effect in raising one’s raw strength or cultivation, but it was just too useful; it could create a physical body that was much stronger than normal humans.

I must get those Spiritual Flesh Snow Jade Roots. A light flashed through Zhao Feng’s eyes. The Spiritual Flesh Snow Jade Roots were extremely important to him, and not just because of his body-strengthening technique.
