Chapter 319: Chapter 282 Artifact Refining Earns Divine Stones_1
The young man’s face changed drastically, for his physical body was strong, much stronger than others of the same realm from the Human Tribe, yet to his shock, he was still unable to withstand the half-illusory, half-real claw of the White Tiger!
The intent to kill that entered his body filled him with despair!
This intent to kill not only continuously destroyed his body but also prevented him from mobilizing his Divine Power, and most importantly, this force also affected his Divine Soul, causing endless fear to arise in his heart.
What good is being at the Complete stage of Heaven God State when fear takes hold? The Divine Heart has already been shattered.
The White Tiger did not continue its attack, but rather hovered above him, looking down.
Li Cheng walked over, his feet off the ground, “I hear the Blood Tribe is quite troublesome to deal with, with strong lifeforce and robust bodies. It seems they’re not much after all.”
From a distance, Kong Lianqing put away the Soul Extinguishing Needle and hurried over, “He’s indeed strong, but your White Tiger Seal is evidently stronger.”
The young man trembled, filled with despair under the influence of the killing intent, “Heaven God State at the early phase? I actually lost to a human at the early phase of Heaven God State?”
In the God Realm, even minor realms have large disparities. He was already at the Complete stage of Heaven God State and could not even put up a fight—how could he reconcile with this?
Li Cheng paid no attention to him, examined his wounds, and nodded in satisfaction, “With the killing intent entering his body, he can’t mobilize Divine Power at all. Even though his lifeforce is powerful, it cannot recover on its own due to the inhibition by the killing intent.”
“Capturing him alive is more valuable than killing him. Take him back; there will be strong ones in the Demon-suppressing Department able to pry some useful information from his mouth,” Kong Lianqing said as she landed.
Li Cheng nodded, withdrew the White Tiger Seal, and placed it in his Dantian to nourish.
He then took away the young man’s Storage Ring and, after confirming there was nothing left on him, took out an Array Plate and collected him into the Hidden Spirit Array.
Kong Lianqing looked toward North Business Village and, seeing that the village head of the Heaven God Realm was rushing over, said, “Let’s go. Let’s not cause them any more trouble.”
The villagers of lower Cultivation had a lot of their blood drawn, but their lives were not in danger and they would recover before long.
And the village head who came over was naturally here to express his gratitude.
Li Cheng nodded, and together with Kong Lianqing, they stepped into the air and flew towards Cloud Bright City.
The village head stood there, stunned, watching their disappearing figures in the sky, and sighed to himself, “Didn’t even give me a chance to say thanks…”
Speeding along, Li Cheng and Kong Lianqing returned to Cloud Bright City and took the Transmission Array to hurry back to the Demon-suppressing Department overnight.
“The Four Spirit Seal you’re cultivating in Demon Suppressing, does it require the Four Spirits Essence and Blood?” Although Kong Lianqing had guessed it, she still asked aloud.
Li Cheng nodded, there was no need to hide this, and from Kong Lianqing’s words, it seemed she knew where to find other Essence Blood.
“The Demon-suppressing Department has one drop of Vermillion Bird Essence and Blood, which seems to be exchangeable for just over a hundred thousand merit points. Ask about it later,” Kong Lianqing said upon receiving affirmation from Li Cheng.
Li Cheng’s eyes lit up, this was indeed good news.
“How many merit points do we get for completing this two-star mission?” Li Cheng asked out of curiosity.
“The points for a two-star mission range from five hundred to a thousand. Missions directly issued by the Demon Suppression Order are usually urgent and carry the highest points, so it should be a thousand.”
Li Cheng nodded slightly, a thousand points, split between two participants, would net about five hundred each.
The difficulty of a two-star mission was not small, it just happened that Li Cheng had learned the White Tiger Seal.
To earn over a hundred thousand points in the future, he would have to undertake hundreds of two-star missions.
As a one-star Demon-suppressing Envoy, the highest he could undertake were two-star missions, and becoming a two-star Demon-suppressing Envoy would allow him to tackle up to three-star missions.
The rewards for three-star missions ranged from one thousand to ten thousand points.
However, becoming a two-star Demon-suppressing Envoy required spending fifty thousand points, which was equally challenging.
Take it slow then!
The lifespan of a Heaven God is around 1.3 billion years, there’s plenty of time.
Arriving at the desolate Affairs Hall, it was already dawn.
It was the same elder as before who, upon seeing them, showed surprise, “Lords, have you completed the mission?”
Li Cheng took out the Array Plate, “It’s this Blood Tribe creating chaos, already suppressed.”
The elder was even more astonished. The intelligence suggested that the perpetrator might even be a True God, yet these two managed to suppress him?
Looking inside the array, the elder nodded, “Please wait a moment, lords, I will inform the Divine Prison immediately. They have their own strong ones to come and take over the transfer.”
“Also, the reward for this mission is a thousand points, five hundred each to you, lords. It has already been transferred into your Identity Tokens.”
“Lords, you have taken out three Soul Extinguishing Needles and one second-level Array Plate in advance, would you like to return them? If not, they can be deducted from your points.”
Kong Lianqing returned the three Soul Extinguishing Needles, and said to Li Cheng, “Keep the Array Plate?”
“How many points?”
“Five hundred,” the elder said with a smile.
Which means, they essentially earned a second-level Array Plate from this mission.
Li Cheng nodded, “Let’s keep it.”
A second-level Hidden Spirit Array can be quite useful.
Soon after, someone came to take away the Blood Tribe young man. The rest did not require their attention.
“Are you planning to continue refining the White Tiger Seal?” Walking out of the Affairs Hall, Kong Lianqing inquired.
Li Cheng nodded. He had already inquired about the Vermillion Bird Essence and Blood—the Demon-suppressing Department indeed had it, for one hundred and eighty thousand points!
For Li Cheng at the moment, that was an astronomical figure, and points could only be exchanged, which made it even more difficult.
However, Li Cheng learned that Divine Stones could be used to buy points, at a rate of one hundred Divine Stones for one point, and the purchase amount could not exceed half of what was needed to promote to the next star level.
To rise to a two-star Demon-suppressing Envoy required fifty thousand points, so right now he could buy a maximum of twenty-five thousand points, which meant two million five hundred thousand Divine Stones.
