CHAPTER 485: CHAPTER 485: DEFYING HEAVEN’S REWARD

Boom!

At this moment, a sound of breaking through the air echoed.

Simultaneously, waves of golden light appeared before everyone without warning.

These waves of golden light transformed into quaint storage rings, accurately landing on the major platforms.

Ye Feng glanced around briefly, noticing that the ring on the top tier where he was situated was undoubtedly the finest, and the rewards seemed overwhelmingly impressive.

As ranks descended, the rewards diminished in quality.

By the time one reached the lowest tier, the rewards were barely worth mentioning.

When Ye Feng received the storage ring on the platform, he was utterly astonished.

Because the tier of this ring was very high, it turned out to be a Third Grade Junior Spiritual Artifact, its space ample, measuring approximately 1000 meters in length, width, and height.

This level of storage ring is extremely rare even in the Cultivation Realm, let alone in this world.

Not only was there this extraordinary storage ring, inside it lay countless treasures.

Spirit Grass, a significant variety of valuable Spirit Grass, with which Ye Feng could refine three batches of Small Rejuvenation Pill and even a batch of Great Rejuvenation Pill.

Unfortunately, none of these Spirit Grass could be planted; otherwise, if cultivated in the Ancient Jade Gourd, their value would significantly increase.

Apart from Spirit Grass, there were numerous other Cultivation Resources.

Medicinal materials over ten thousand years old were countless; there were even many over twenty thousand years old.

With so many medicinal materials, Ye Feng felt he would no longer worry about Cultivation Resources in the future.

Besides these, Ye Feng acquired numerous Spiritual Artifacts.

Eight Second Grade Spiritual Artifacts were among them, including three Second Grade Junior Spiritual Artifacts, two Second Grade Intermediate Spiritual Artifacts, one Second Grade Senior Spiritual Artifact, and two Second Grade Superior Spiritual Artifacts.

Below Second Grade, there were also many, with dozens of pieces—knives, spears, staffs, and swords of all types.

Beyond weapons, there were many Cultivation Techniques and Martial Techniques.

Above Earth Tier, there were over twenty books, not to mention those below Earth Tier.

If others knew Ye Feng obtained so many good things, they would probably be envious enough to wish to claim them as their own.

Indeed, seventy percent of this reward belonged to Ye Feng.

Situ Jing got ten percent, Feng Gu seven percent, and Old Gong five percent.

As for the others, they only collectively received eight percent; the rewards were acquired by the prominent figures.

"Mr. Ye!" After receiving their rewards, Feng Gu and Old Gong handed over all their rewards to Ye Feng.

In their minds, these rewards rightly belonged to Ye Feng, and they were fortunate enough to survive and return with the legacy.

"Dear!" Even Situ Jing handed all the rewards to Ye Feng.

"Alright! Once I’ve refined the pills, I’ll share some with you." Ye Feng pondered for a moment and accepted them.

Indeed, it was only in Ye Feng’s hands that these items could fully realize their potential; giving them away would lead to waste.

Besides, not everyone possessed Ye Feng’s extraordinary Alchemy Technique.

Situ Jing’s storage ring was a Second Grade Junior Spiritual Artifact.

The Second Grade Junior Spiritual Artifact’s storage ring had decent dimensions, being 50 meters in length, width, and height, holding a considerable amount.

Of course, it was incomparable to Ye Feng’s Third Grade Junior Spiritual Artifact; the higher the grade, the more the space expanded.

Ye Feng thought it over and returned the storage ring to Situ Jing—after all, she was Ye Feng’s woman and deserved some good items.

Feng Gu’s storage ring was a First Grade Superior Spiritual Artifact, measuring 20 meters in length, width, and height.

Old Gong’s storage ring was a First Grade Senior Spiritual Artifact, measuring 10 meters in length, width, and height.

With the resources from all three, Ye Feng barely managed to refine one more batch of Small Rejuvenation Pill; these resources couldn’t compare to what Ye Feng acquired.

Even the medicinal materials and other items were very limited, prompting Ye Feng’s disinterest in the rewards received by others.

If the rewards were more ample, Ye Feng might even resort to taking them by force.

But now, that didn’t seem necessary; taking what could be taken was enough, and leaving what couldn’t be taken.

Ye Feng pondered and decided to give Old Gong a First Grade Junior Spiritual Artifact’s storage ring and Feng Gu a First Grade Intermediate Spiritual Artifact’s storage ring.

Since he took their high-grade storage rings, it was right to return them something of lower grade.

Holding the storage rings, both were very pleased.

As for the items inside, Ye Feng transferred them all into the largest storage ring.

Not just the items within this storage ring, but also those from previously acquired storage equipment, were transferred into it.

This rendered the Cultivation Resources within the storage ring like a mountain, exceedingly abundant.

Among them, stones were the most plentiful, with various levels of Celestial Essence Stones.

These contributions mostly came from the Celestial Punishment Association’s higher-ups, Ye Feng’s enemies.

However, Ye Feng discovered a type of stone with even more concentrated Spiritual Qi among the newly acquired rewards.

"What is this?" Hence, Ye Feng pulled one out and inquired.

"Celestial Crystal Stone? This is far more scarce than Celestial Essence Stone." Upon seeing the Celestial Crystal Stone, Old Gong said with some astonishment.

"What level are these Celestial Crystal Stones?" Hence, Ye Feng produced various Celestial Crystal Stones to ask.

Under Ye Feng’s questioning, Old Gong provided thorough explanations.

It turned out, the newly acquired rewards included various grades of Celestial Crystal Stones.

Lower Grade Celestial Crystal Stones, Middle Grade Celestial Crystal Stones, and Upper Grade Celestial Crystal Stones.

Among them, Lower Grade Celestial Crystal Stones were most abundant, surpassing ten thousand pieces.

Middle Grade Celestial Crystal Stones ranked second in quantity, with several hundred pieces.

Upper Grade Celestial Crystal Stones were least common, numbering only a few dozen.

Feeling the dense Spiritual Qi within the Celestial Crystal Stones, Ye Feng believed they could be excellent for cultivation.

Yet, Ye Feng did not immediately begin cultivation, but rather returned all resources to the storage ring.

Boom!

At this moment, a loud noise from the sky, the platform began to collapse, stairs began to crumble.

Seeing this change, everyone frantically fled downward.

After everyone left, the stairs and platform gradually flew skyward.

"Is it over?"

"It’s finally over!"

"This time, we’ve narrowly escaped with our lives, but the gains were truly substantial."

Witnessing this scene, everyone thought it was over.

Yet, the light barrier didn’t vanish; everyone remained trapped in place.

"What’s happening?" Seeing this, everyone realized things were amiss.

"What should we do?" After an hour without change, even Feng Gu and Old Gong were becoming anxious.

"No need to hurry, let’s observe calmly." Ye Feng, however, appeared very composed, beginning to eat and drink with the three.

Seeing the three eating and drinking merrily, others couldn’t help but swallow.

Truthfully, their food had all been consumed earlier; after engaging in another fierce battle, they were already feeling hungry, so watching Ye Feng and the others eat, they grew even hungrier.

As for Ye Feng, he merely smiled smugly and, after eating, stored his items calmly and commenced alchemy.

As for these people wanting food, a certain price had to be paid; Ye Feng felt he could profit greatly by doing nothing and have these people willingly surrender their prized possessions....
