Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme
Chapter 1098 - 1090: What Exactly Is It?
"This, this is the Molan Devouring Stone, which is a top-grade material for refining magic artifacts. And the Li Huo Sha Long Ming Qi, all of these are good things?" Zhen Yuanzi's eyes shone like two lightbulbs.
These materials, if taken outside, could likely incite other cultivators to madly snatch them.
Lin Mo took a glance; although these items were precious, there were even some fourth-grade mystic materials, but the magic artifact he wanted to refine was more advanced, making these things unnecessary.
"You can have these things." Lin Mo said.
"Really? Thank you, Mr. Lin."
Zhen Yuanzi showed a look of great joy on his face and immediately stored these things into his own space ring.
This time for extracting the spirit vein, if it weren't for Zhen Yuanzi's help, Lin Mo wouldn't have succeeded. Rewarding Zhen Yuanzi with some items was only reasonable.
"Huh, there's another space ring?"
Lin Mo's eyes lit up, and he beckoned with his hand.
From the corner of the stone chamber, a red space ring flew into Lin Mo's hand.
Sending a wisp of divine thought inside, Lin Mo's eyes widened roundly.
"Mr. Lin, what's wrong?" Zhen Yuanzi, in a great mood after storing away the treasures, suddenly saw Lin Mo freeze up and asked suspiciously.
"So much."
Lin Mo opened his mouth, feeling parched.
"So much of what?"
"Starlight!" Lin Mo's face was filled with ecstatic joy. Within the entire space ring, the space was nearly hundreds of times larger than his original space ring, and inside, like the sea of starry nebulae, all was filled with countless starlight, dense, like a patterned star nebula filling the dark space of the space ring.
Making it as bright as day.
"How much?"
Zhen Yuanzi had never seen Lin Mo exhibit such a shocked expression, not even when he just obtained two million top-grade spiritual stones did Mr. Lin show such a losing composure.
"Ten billion pieces of starlight," Lin Mo murmured.
This left even Zhen Yuanzi in astonishment.
"Ten billion?"
According to market value, one hundred pieces of starlight equaled one piece of top-grade spiritual stone, ten billion pieces of starlight meant ten million top-grade spiritual stones!
Hiss!
Both Zhen Yuanzi and Lin Mo took a deep breath simultaneously.
"This ring certainly doesn't belong to that deceased Refining God stage cultivator; it doesn't have his aura. It should have been left behind by that mysterious big shot."
Lin Mo regained his composure and placed the space ring on his finger.
By now Lin Mo had already condensed the power of the sixth star, and to condense the power of the seventh star, he would need at least one million to ten million pieces of starlight. He didn't expect this encounter to grant him ten billion pieces of starlight.
Ten billion pieces of starlight, when converted to top-grade spiritual stones, would require over ten million top-grade spiritual stones!
"But after condensing the power of the seven stars, one can step into the Moon Wheel Realm, requiring not as much star power—why would anyone gather ten billion pieces of starlight?"
Lin Mo felt a slight unease in his heart.
This time, he acquired significant wealth, equivalent to twelve million top-grade spiritual stones, with various heavenly materials and earthly treasures; other things were given to Zhen Yuanzi, while the starlight and two million top-grade spiritual stones were kept by Lin Mo himself.
"Mr. Lin, isn't this the case of bad luck turning into a blessing?" Zhen Yuanzi laughed heartily.
"Perhaps," Lin Mo said calmly.
With two million top-grade spiritual stones, he could purchase various materials and items. At least before the Golden Core stage, he wouldn't worry about money.
As for the one billion starlight, consolidate the power of the seven stars, and it should suffice until before the Sun Wheel Realm without a shortage of starlight.
Lin Mo never imagined that the battle with the Nine-tailed Demon Fox would lead him to this mysterious place, acquiring so many treasures. It might indeed be true, 'Great calamity leads to fortune.'
If the Nine-tailed Demon Fox and Zheng Xiu Yan, Zhou Na knew, they might be so furious that they'd cough up blood.
"Mr. Lin, earlier you said there was a mysterious power pulling you—are these the starlight?" Zhen Yuanzi asked curiously.
After all, only Lin Mo with dual cultivation of martial arts and magic could sense the power of starlight.
"No, it's definitely not the starlight that made me feel that blood-pumping excitement."
Lin Mo frowned, shaking his head. Then stretched out his palm, the incomplete gold foil appeared in his hand. "This incomplete gold foil that brought us here is definitely not simple. And now, I feel that the attracting power is getting stronger." Suddenly, the gold foil floated from his palm, transforming into a streak of golden light, shooting upward like a golden thread.
"Follow it!"
Lin Mo's pupils shot out two beams of light, immediately turning into a flow of light, following the incomplete gold foil, flying upward.
Zhen Yuanzi frowned but followed promptly.
This grand palace seemed to have no top, with the sky appearing a vast expanse of white, like countless mists condensed together, making the sky invisible.
Moments later, Lin Mo and Zhen Yuanzi flew into midair, standing suspended as the surroundings transformed.
Gazing at the far distance, one could see nothing but golden light, though it seemed quite far away.
"Were we possibly enclosed just now?" Zhen Yuanzi was astonished.
The surroundings were enveloped in golden light, even the top emitted a layer of golden brilliance, like an expansive dome shrouding Zhen Yuanzi and Lin Mo.
"Hmm! We were encased inside a magic artifact!"
Lin Mo frowned, pondering silently for a moment, then spoke slowly.
Zhen Yuanzi opened his mouth, taking a deep breath; what?
The two along with the grand palace beneath were enclosed by a magic artifact; how big must this artifact be?
Some powerfully cultivated great powers could alter the size of a magic artifact but needed mana support, yet this treasure evidently didn't require mana to enlarge it; this was its original size.
Creating such a massive magic artifact, without mentioning its grade, the various materials consumed alone were immeasurable.
"To seal a palace and that Refining God stage cultivator, even the entire Han Country, with a magic treasure, how could it be an ordinary magic artifact? At least a divine artifact rank treasure; probably this artifact was also crafted by that mysterious big shot."
Lin Mo exclaimed.
"What a grand gesture!" Zhen Yuanzi smacked his tongue.
"Let's go up and take a look. Just now, the incomplete gold foil flew to the top." Lin Mo lifted his head, eyes fixed on the dome above.
Zhen Yuanzi nodded, slowing his pace to follow Lin Mo, flying together toward the dome.
Moments later, the two finally reached the dome in front, seeing that incomplete gold foil already fitting with the dome above, emitting a faint golden light, then merged in, becoming a whole with no distinct trace.
"Hmm?"
Lin Mo blinked. This incomplete gold foil was obtained from Liu Qiang's space ring, and Liu Qiang took it from his master's hand as a treasure.
"Even Liu Qiang's master couldn't have entered this region, let alone damage this magic artifact to peel off a piece of incomplete gold foil," Lin Mo silently analyzed.
The most likely scenario was that the deceased Divinity Transformation stage cultivator attempted to resist and blasted off a small piece of gold foil, which drifted into the outside world, later obtained by Liu Qiang's master.
Lin Mo stared at the golden dome, analyzing silently, while above the golden dome, there were countless tadpole-like golden runes swimming on the ceiling.
"Mr. Lin, what exactly are these things?" Zhen Yuanzi asked with uncertainty and suspicion.
