Chapter 1674: Great Senior
Translator: Larbre Studio Editor: Larbre Studio
At the top of the weapon-refining pavilion, the princes, maidens and deities from the ancient civilizations were all rendered speechless.
Crown Prince Dizu immediately walked forward and tried to talk her out of it. “Please don’t make a promise like this, fairy. It’s nothing but divine spring. I’ll definitely help you get it.”
Another deity male also said, “We ancient civilizations always help each other out. Your trouble is our trouble. If we can get more water from the divine spring than we need, we’ll definitely share it with you. Please take back what you just said.”
The golden giant that was two hundred feet tall said, “Luo Ji, I’ll annihilate this Gu Feng for you. How dare that jerk threaten you like this. I bet he doesn’t want to be alive!”
Gu Feng, who had been fearless, immediately paled upon hearing that.
The golden giant was the prince of Giant Spirit Civilization, and he was the most powerful being from the ancient civilization sect. His cultivation was profound, and he could easily defeat even ten Gu Fengs.
Fairy Tianchu said with her melodious voice again, “It has nothing to do with him. It’s my own decision.”
Zhang Ruochen stared at Fairy Tianchu as he could feel how hopeless she was.
The creatures here did come from the same sect.
However, it was only a temporary group formed because of mutual interests. There wouldn’t be any real loyalty among them.
Would they really give Fairy Tianchu some extra water from the divine spring?
Perhaps there would be someone who was willing to share the water from the divine spring, but not everyone would do the same.
Besides, Fairy Tianchu needed a large amount of divine spring. If there was only a limited amount of water from the divine spring in the Wind Atrium, there was no way people would give her a hundred thousand drops.
It seems that Fairy Tianchu knows she can only rely on herself when it comes to a real danger. The so-called friends she had before might even come ask for some benefits or even set her up, Zhang Ruochen thought.
Only the real confidants would risk their lives to help you when you were in deep trouble.
And a person could only have a few real friends in his entire life.
Actually, there was a bigger reason why Zhang Ruochen agreed to go to the Wind Atrium with the Thousand Star Maiden.
He also wanted the divine spring.
He knew that it was impossible for him to get into the group of palaces in the Wind Atrium by himself. However, if he had the help of the Thousand Star Maiden and the entire ancient civilization sect, he would have a much higher chance to succeed.
He heard that the divine spring was amazingly useful. Creatures under the state of saint who just died could be revived by a drop of divine spring water as long as their souls hadn’t dispersed.
As for saints, they needed several drops of divine spring water to be resurrected as they had great body constitution.
If a divine medicinal pill could be combined with a drop of divine spring water, its effect would surge. If he wanted to make divine medicinal pills that were better than heaven grade, he needed to mix them with divine spring water.
It was said that ancient saint pills that were a hundred thousand years old could turn into divine herbs if they were planted in the divine spring and absorbed enough of the water.
The divine spring was incredibly useful, and it would lead to a huge fight every time it came out.
Zhang Ruochen asked, “I’m curious. Why do you guys have to have space monks in the Wind Atrium?”
The Thousand Star Maiden smiled and said, “There’ll be Great Senior answering your question soon. One of the great beings who managed to survive the group of palaces is Great Senior.”
“Great Senior?” Zhang Ruochen asked.
The Thousand Star Maiden stared at that golden giant that was two hundred feet tall and said, “The prince of the Giant Spirit Civilization, last name Senior, first name Great. He’s also the most powerful being in our sect. You’ve battled with Shang Ziyan many times, haven’t you? You should know something about his power. Let me tell you, Great Senior can trump even Shang Ziyan.”
“Of course, Great Senior has refined in Truth Godly Palace longer than Shang Ziyan, and he’s also older than Shang Ziyan. Shang Ziyan is just as talented as Great Senior, and he might surpass Great Senior in the future.”
Someone stronger than Shang Ziyan?
Zhang Ruochen was a bit thrilled, and he looked to the prince of the Giant Spirit Civilization, Great Senior.
The Thousand Star Maiden then said, “There’re also a couple other creatures you need to show respect to, other than Great Senior. They all have powerful backgrounds with tremendous power.”
After the Thousand Star Maiden finished briefing Zhang Ruochen about the great beings present, Great Senior, who was sitting barefoot said, “Space monks from all the ancient civilizations, please all stand up and introduce yourselves.”
Other than Gu Feng and Chou Gu, three other creatures stood up and walked out.
One of them was wearing a monk cape, and was named ‘Pu Shan’.
One of them was young and dashing, and was named ‘Li Qinghai’.
The third of them was female, yet she looked like a teenage girl. Her name was ‘Mo Xiaogu’.
None of them were human beings, instead, they refined human bodies. Nobody knew what they really looked like behind the human disguise.
Zhang Ruochen also walked forward and claimed to be ‘Lin Yue’, an alias he had used before.
Gu Feng was surprised to find out that Zhang Ruochen was also a space monk. He then said contemptuously, “Can’t believe everyone dares claim to have refined Space Way before actually achieving something. Isn’t he scared that he’ll get killed in the Wind Atrium?”
Zhang Ruochen didn’t care about him at all, standing there silently.
The Thousand Star Maiden couldn’t let it slide. She sneered and said, “I’m the one who invited Lin Yue here. You’d better treat him nicely, Gu Feng, otherwise, it’ll end very tragically for you.”
Thousand Star Civilization was one of the strongest civilizations in the Ancient Civilization Sect.
Although Gu Feng was powerful and eccentric, he was intimidated by the Thousand Star Maiden, and he stopped showing his emotions. Nobody knew what he was thinking.
The Thousand Star Maiden was a mysterious being to the people from the Ancient Civilization Sect. She was only close with a few monks, including Fairy Tianchu. Others didn’t even get to see her usually.
The Thousand Star Maiden was too young to have her cultivation compare with the likes of Great Senior. However, she was still one of the top-tier beings in the sect.
After all, she came from Thousand Star Civilization.
The space monk invited by the Thousand Star Maiden was valued by everyone, so they couldn’t help observing Zhang Ruochen.
However, Zhang Ruochen looked too ordinary, and he was only a second-step saint king. Everyone was upset by how mediocre he looked.
Great Senior said, “We asked you here for two reasons.
“Firstly, the group of palaces on the Wind Atrium are very dangerous, and it’s very difficult to get out once you’re in. I hope that you can set up a space transportation formation so that we can at least survive it when we’re in danger. Our lives are always more important than the divine spring.
“Can any of you set up a space transportation formation?”
Chou Gu immediately said, “The most crucial inscriptions to carve a space transportation formation are under the control of Space Divine Pavilion. Only the disciples from Space Divine Pavilion can set them up.”
Pu Shan and Li Qinghai also nodded.
Mo Xiaogu, who was the youngest out of all six of them said, “I’m a disciple from Space Divine Palace, but it’s very complex to make a space transportation formation. I haven’t mastered it. I need someone to help me set it up.”
Gu Feng looked at Mo Xiaogu’s breasts, smiled and said, “I’ve studied how to make a space transportation formation before. I’m not able to make one by myself yet, but I can definitely help you make one.”
Mo Xiaogu was a bit scared of Gu Feng, and she took a step back.
Great Senior frowned and said, “You two will be responsible for making space transportation formations. Ming Yi, protect them two and don’t let Gu Feng take advantage of the girl.”
The silver giant who was slightly shorter cupped his hands while holding a giant axe, “Yes sir.”
Great Senior then said, “As for the second reason, you’ll know when you arrive at the Wind Atrium. Our meeting for tonight ends now, and we’ll gather at the Wind Atrium at midday tomorrow.”
Everyone left the weapon-refining pavilion except Mo Xiaogu and Gu Feng, who stayed to set up space transportation formations.
Zhang Ruochen and the giant-bearded man were following the Thousand Star Maiden. They saw a white and delicate bird as they walked out of the weapon-refining pavilion, dragging an ancient carriage that was glowing with starry light.
A thin blind man bowed and said, “Please board, your highness.”
The Thousand Star Maiden, dressed in purple, walked onto the ancient carriage and lifted the curtain. Then, she stopped, looked to Zhang Ruochen and said, “Do you want to get in?”
“No need,” said Zhang Ruochen.
“Please do. I have a question that I’ve been wanting to ask you.”
Pausing for a while, the Thousand Star Maiden said, “The saint fruits and saint pills you want are already on the carriage!”
The Thousand Star Maiden smiled and walked into the carriage. Every one of her moves looked elegant.
Zhang Ruochen boarded the carriage, and he saw a giant space inside which looked like a spectacular palace which had more than one room.
It was a space treasure.
It was decorated lavishly. There were saint jades of all sorts inlaid on the wall, which looked like stars. At the center of the room was a formation made of hundreds of thousands of saint stones. As the formation operated, saint Qi was released, which made the ancient carriage become saturated with saint Qi.
There were saint spells of all sorts on the walls, pills, formation inscriptions and rune inscriptions… The characters were tiny, and there seemed to be trillions of characters there.
The Thousand Star Maiden saw Zhang Ruochen observing the characters on the walls, and she smiled beautifully and said, “I’m the manipulator of the Way of Origin, and I can easily master all sorts of strange techniques. Since I can remember, I’ve been practicing Martial Way and mind power, and I’m also studying formation, pill making, weapon making, Rune Way, beast controlling and witchcraft. I’ve become accomplished in lots of aspects now.”
The Thousand Star Maiden must’ve achieved greatly if she claimed to have accomplished all this, given how confident she was.
