Long Yu can come to this courtyard on the fifth floor of the Yuanquan Tower at any time in the next year, but he certainly won't stay here for a whole year.
All the strange beasts of the Wood God Clan in the source land temporarily scattered and were killed by Elder Murong Xiuzhen of the Five Emperors Alliance. There is no chance for training in this area for the time being.
Long Yu could take advantage of the next two months to consolidate his newly improved martial arts realm.
Two months later, he would have to return to the Beixue Imperial Capital to attend the Imperial Capital Grand Celebration and fight for the future of Tianyu Manor.
"At the Imperial Capital Grand Meeting, there will be more than twenty talented young men at the King Realm, and countless martial artists at the Seven Dao Divine Ability Realm..."
Long Yu thought to himself that with his current strength, it should not be a problem for him to keep the ownership of Tianyu Manor, but the key was that he did not know the specific rules of the Imperial Capital Festival, which changed every year.
If each force selected one person to fight and eliminate them one by one, Long Yu would not be afraid at all. What he was afraid of was that each force would send out a team of several people. Then, in the entire Tianyu Manor, except for him and Man Xin, there would be no other martial artists who could stand up to the test.
The more people specified in the rules, the more disadvantageous it will be for Long Yu.
So he needs to have stronger power!
In addition to practicing behind closed doors, Long Yu had to consider relying on external forces, such as taking special pills and so on.
In the Source Sky Tower, trade between martial artists is very prosperous, and various precious treasures, such as the Essence of Gods, appear in the trading market from time to time and are easily sold for thousands of God Coins.
The essence of the divine heir can not only enhance the martial artist's comprehension of the power of various divine texts, but also enhance the level of compatibility between the martial artist and the divine texts. Any martial artist who absorbs its power will be greatly enhanced.
The essence of the divine heir is often produced in very dangerous places, and once it appears, there are several of them, so it is impossible to sell them at a very high price. For example, the previous Shura King was able to buy two at once in the Tianqin Dynasty and give them to Shu Chan.
Basically, as long as the martial artist is not doing too badly, he will be able to buy an Essence of God after entering the Secret Realm of Kingly Dao.
The essence of the God's Heir can be absorbed once before entering the Kingly Way Secret Realm, and can be absorbed again after entering the Kingly Way Secret Realm. Each martial artist can absorb the power twice in total to improve himself.
However, by the time most martial artists were able to obtain the essence of the gods, they had already entered the secret realm of the kingly way, except for young martial artists with a certain background.
For example, Shu Chan was able to absorb one essence of the divine heir before entering the Kingly Dao Secret Realm. Once she entered the Kingly Dao Secret Realm, she would definitely be able to take another one.
"The essence of the heir of God is not a very precious thing. If you want to widen the gap with other people, you must get some more unusual treasures, even if you have to exchange it for 100,000 God Coins!"
Every day, Long Yu condenses the ancient afterimages, and lets four of them wear masks to gather information in the trading areas on each floor of the Source Sky Tower. Once any special treasure appears, he will be ready to appear and buy it.
…
A month later.
Long Yu consolidated his cultivation of the three realms of magical powers, as well as the Soul Seal Siphon that had just been promoted to a mid-level magical power, and became more proficient in using the three innate magical powers.
The Hand of Nine Nether, the Soul Seal Siphon, and the Breath of Nine Nether Dragon, these three are all extremely powerful innate magical powers. The most important thing is to cooperate with the Nine Nether Divine Scripture and the Siphon Divine Scripture that Long Yu has comprehended, both of which are at the level of the source of divine scripture and the strongest divine scripture power.
The power of the divine text that he comprehended was the most important factor in his ability to fight against opponents of higher levels!
"I have comprehended 50% of the Nine Nether Divine Scripture and 30% of the Siphon Divine Scripture. Unfortunately, I have only comprehended 1% of the Death Divine Scripture and Shura Divine Scripture. They are still too weak to be used in battle..."
Long Yu shook his head with a little regret.
Long Yu had only recently comprehended the Shura Divine Scripture and the Death Divine Scripture, so it was not easy for him to comprehend them to a high enough level.
At least in the short term, it is difficult to get promoted without special circumstances.
"Hmm? Shadow Skystone?"
Long Yu took a short rest and focused his attention on the trading areas on each floor of the Origin Sky Tower. His four ancient afterimages were still wandering around the floors, inquiring about the situation in the trading areas of the Origin Sky Tower.
Suddenly, the ancient remnant in the third-level trading area finally learned the news of a good thing - Shadow Sky Stone!
The value of a Heavenly Stone is higher than a complete divine inscription, and its price will vary according to its properties - a Heavenly Stone rarely appears in a place like the Source Heavenly Tower!
The Shadow Sky Stone is the essence of the power of the Shadow Divine Scripture born from nature. After absorbing the energy in it, it can enhance the martial artist's comprehension and compatibility with the Shadow Divine Scripture. The effect is definitely no less than that of a divine essence.
However, the price of Shadow Sky Stone is more than ten times higher than that of Divine Essence because it is too rare!
The ancient afterimage of Long Yu was wearing a black robe and a ghost face mask. He looked like a black mist, floating on the third floor of the Yuanquan Sky Tower, and soon came to a place surrounded by many martial artists.
The seller of Shadow Sky Stone was surrounded by the crowd.
It was a middle-aged man with several scars on his face, looking extremely ferocious. On the stall in front of him was a pitch-black shadow sky stone, which attracted a large group of martial artists from the surrounding area to watch.
The seven floors above the Source Tower are mostly populated by human martial artists. Just to reach the third floor of the Source Tower, one needs to pay two thousand divine coins to obtain an identity crystal.
Therefore, every martial artist who can appear here is a strong man with a certain status.
The seller of the Shadow Sky Stone, a middle-aged man with scars all over his face, is a powerful king!
"The starting price is 30,000, and the highest bidder wins."
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice that in the Origin Sky Tower, he was not afraid that the Shadow Sky Stone would be snatched away by anyone. After all, the public security in the Origin Sky Tower has always been very good.
It’s not that the martial artists gathered here have good qualities, but because the guarding force of the Source Sky Tower is powerful. Anyone who dares to commit a crime will never be able to escape from the Source Sky Tower.
The value of Shadow Sky Stone to martial artists who are compatible with Shadow Divine Scripture is unquestionable, but the high price makes it prohibitive for most martial artists.
For most martial artists, they haven't even absorbed the Essence of the Gods yet. Instead of using so many divine coins to buy Shadow Sky Stones, it would be better to buy the Essence of the Gods first.
After all, only a few people can afford such rare treasures. In the entire Beixue Dynasty, there are probably no more than a hundred martial artists who can afford 30,000 divine coins.
Of course, if there is some force behind it, it would be different. In the Beixue Imperial Capital, any mansion or manor could easily buy such a Shadow Sky Stone.
It’s a pity that Yuanquan Tianta is a paradise for martial artists, and members of ordinary forces rarely come to this place.
"Thirty thousand divine coins, I want them."
Finally, someone in the crowd made a bid. It was none other than the ancient afterimage of Long Yu, who was wearing a black robe and a ghost mask and floating like a dark fog!
Seeing that many martial artists around him had no intention of bidding, Long Yu directly offered the other party's bottom price.
The middle-aged man with a scar on his face did not say anything. Instead, he looked around with a sullen face, but he could not wait for another person to offer a higher price.
It's not that the martial artists present here don't want the Shadow Sky Stone, but that all their assets cannot afford to buy this treasure!
When they heard someone bid thirty thousand, most of the martial artists in the field shook their heads in regret and disappointment. They thought that if no one bid, the other party would sell it at a lower price, and it would not be too late to bid then. However, they did not expect that someone would actually bid thirty thousand divine coins.
A treasure like the Shadow Sky Stone might not appear even once a year in the entire Beixue Dynasty, so thirty thousand is not too expensive - however, in this place, it is difficult for anyone to afford a higher price.
This middle-aged man who was selling the Shadow Sky Stone would definitely not choose to sell it here if he was not in a hurry to use the money.
"Thirty thousand is really too low."
The middle-aged man looked at Long Yu's ancient shadow with a gloomy face and said in a deep voice: "Brother, if you can offer 40,000, this Shadow Sky Stone can be given to you immediately."
Long Yu himself did not show up, but that did not affect his ability to complete the transaction.
Hearing what the other party said, Long Yu himself chuckled. As for the ancient remnant in the third floor of the Source Sky Tower, he did not make any move. He just said in a low voice: "Thirty thousand is thirty thousand. This is the reserve price you said. Now that no one else has bid, you want to raise the price. It's too much."
Long Yu had 100,000 divine coins on him, but he was not a sucker, so he was quite unhappy when the other party raised the price on the spot.
"I guess with your status, ten thousand divine coins are nothing."
The middle-aged man was unyielding and said in a deep voice: "But for me, an extra 10,000 divine coins may help me save one more brother!"
"That's your business, not mine."
Long Yu's ancient afterimage was not shaken at all, and insisted: "30,000 divine coins, forget it if you don't want to sell it."
"… "
A look of struggle appeared in the eyes of the middle-aged man, and then he nodded with difficulty: "Thirty thousand, then thirty thousand."
Only then was Long Yu satisfied. He took out 30,000 divine coins from his arms and used the Void Dragon Blade in his hand to condense the power of space and transfer it to the ancient afterimage.
Thirty thousand divine coins, condensed together, were just a fist-sized crystal, which was taken out by the ancient remnant and placed in the hands of the middle-aged man, who then took away the shadow sky stone on his stall.
After confirming that it was correct, the ancient afterimage directly used the magic of invisibility and suddenly disappeared from its original place!
Long Yu is such a person. The life and death of strangers has nothing to do with him. The middle-aged man has nothing to do with him. This is just a transaction.
With the Shadow Sky Stone in hand, Long Yu can foresee that his strength will be further improved!
