Chapter 801 - 801 Reuniting
''The geniuses of the Tianhuan dynasty?'' Shun Long mumbled to himself in a pondering manner.
Of course, it was clear as day that the Northern Sovereign was trying to rope him in and get him to join the Tianhuan dynasty, otherwise she wouldn't go to this extent to introduce him to the geniuses of that dynasty.
However, although Shun Long had a good impression of the Northern Sovereign, he wasn't planning to enter the Tianhuan dynasty when he had no reason to.
Even if he was offered plenty of resources, nothing was worth more than his freedom.
A few moments later, Shun Long nodded his head and said
''I will go visit the Northern Sovereign today. After that, I'm planning to truly enter seclusion this time, and I will probably not be able to come out until the 'City of Immortals' opens.''
Bai Longtian and the others weren't surprised by this. After all, they were also going to enter seclusion for the next 4 months and advance their strength as much as possible.
As he finished speaking, Shun Long then waved his hand and took out a long white sword with a crimson hilt, a light-blue armor, as well as a bronze armor from his spatial ring, and placed them on the table in front of him before he said smilingly
''Longtian, this sword is for you. It is a peak 1-star sword infused with the Dao of Fire.''
Bai Longtian stared at the long white sword with a look of surprise on his face.
He hadn't expected that after Shun Long returned back, he would actually give him a peak 1-star sword.
After all, peak 1-star weapons were extremely rare, and even the cheapest of them would go for 40.000-50.000 high-grade spirit stones.
Only some late-stage Dao Emperors would be able to afford such a price.
Of course, Bai Longtian knew that this 1-star weapon was the thing that he lacked the most.
Although the rank 3 gold-grade sword that he had been using wasn't bad, it wasn't good enough to keep up against the weapons of even the other outer court disciples in the Holy sect.
After all, even people like Sheng Huang were wielding peak rank 3 gold-grade weapons, while those at the top of the rankings in the Martial Roll of Honor like Yang Hui, Qiao Min, and the rest, even had star-rank weapons.
Although Bai Longtian could keep up with most disciples for now, there was no doubt that he would be at a disadvantage after they entered the City of Immortals where the top geniuses from every place throughout the central region would also gather.
Without any hesitation, Bai Longtian accepted the long white sword and cupped his hands at Shun Long, before he said in a grateful manner
''Brother Shun, thank you!''
Shun Long waved his hand and said calmly
''There is no need for thanks between us.''
Bai Longtian nodded his head without saying anything else and simply kept this in his heart.
After all, although a peak 1-star sword was valuable, in front of the immortal-grade cultivation technique that he had received from Shun Long, the 'Buddha's light', this sword was truly nothing in comparison.
However, even though Bai Longtian didn't say anything, he was determined to become even stronger in the next 4 months. The stronger he became, the better he would be able to assist Shun Long in the City of Immortals.
A moment later, Shun Long turned his gaze towards Xingyi and said
''Xingyi, this blue armor is for you. It's a peak 1-star armor infused with the Dao of Water. Most likely, unless you meet a Dao Emperor or an extremely strong peak Dao King, nobody else should be able to harm you while you wear it, unless they manage to completely exhaust all of your qi.
Of course, if someone has comprehended a powerful unique Dao then they can also be your match, but the armor should still be able to protect you.''
As he said this, Shun Long handed the light-blue armor to Xingyi who smiled brightly and accepted it with a smile on her face before she said warmly
''Brother Long, thank you!''
Shun Long patted Xingyi's head affectionately, as he also stared at the blue armor in her hands.
Shun Long understood clearly, that this armor was even better suited for Xingyi than Murong Tian's own armor.
After all, Murong Tian's armor was an armor with the element of earth infused inside it, and it would actually hinder Xingyi's Dao of Shadows and her 'Vanishing Shadows unique physique' during a fight instead of helping her.
Although it would raise her defenses, Xingyi would actually be 'stranded down' due to the armor's effects and wouldn't have as much freedom to move.
However, this light-blue armor was completely different and it would complement her skills instead of hindering them.
After all, the biggest benefit of the Dao of Water was both in its versatility and defense.
Although it wasn't as strong as the Dao of Earth in terms of defense, it was actually an even better fit for Xingyi.
A moment later, Shun Long turned his attention towards Jiang Chen and said
''Jiang Chen, this one is for you. It's a peak 2-star armor infused with the Dao of Earth.''
As he said this, Shun Long pushed the bronze armor towards Jiang Chen, who seemed to have accepted it subconsciously with an incredulous look on his face.
It wasn't just Jiang Chen, but Xingyi, Bai Longtian, and even Liu Mei, who were stunned when they saw this peak 2-star armor.
Originally, they hadn't paid too much attention to it, but after they sensed the fluctuations around it, they all realized that the aura coming from this armor had indeed exceeded that of a peak 1-star armor by a lot.
However, forget about a peak 2-star armor, even normal 2-star armors should be extremely scarce and almost impossible to obtain.
A moment later, Jiang Chen snapped out from his daze and pushed the bronze armor back to Shun Long before he said seriously
''Brother, even though I appreciate this, it's better for you to have this armor.''
