Chapter 70: Full-Plate
Subterranean tunneling was a largely novel experience to Yao Shen, as he found himself rather intrigued by the mechanism. Wenjun Long led the way, using Earth Qi to part the tightly packed earth before him. It was Yao Shens turn after, as he directed the displaced soil to fill the space left behind in their egress.
They couldnt destabilize the earth beneath the Earth Division as they made their way forward and when they reached their destination, there would be no traces of the path they took left behind. The method had fantastic stealth applications, if it did not require two powerful Nascent Soul Cultivators to work in tandem and there naturally could not be any mortals accompanying them, as the lack of air would result in their demise.
All the parties present had agreed that it was too ostentatious for all three Patriarchs of the Azlak Plains hegemonic sects to move openly within the Earth Division, before heading for the largely cut off sealed cave systems. This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.
It took them two hours to cover a distance that would normally have been a matter of minutes, but the end result had been worth it. Wenjun Longs experience and skill meant that they resurfaced comfortably within the sealed cave systems, bypassing the guards blocking the route entirely.
Safely deactivating the Greater Concealment rune without damaging it took another few minutes, before Wenjun Long strode forward and placed his right palm on the alcoves surface. A rectangular block of land collapsed inwards at his touch, causing a burst of aquamarine light to spill out.
It was with trembling hands that Lei Weiyuan gingerly stepped forward, no longer letting Yongliang Luo take the lead.
This cannot be, Lei Weiyuan whispered under the echo of his own footsteps, as he entered the lumenite man. The expression on his face was a melange of stupefaction and horror as he took in the deadly beauty of the crystal ore.
The sheer thrum of Qi radiating from the mine was so overwhelming that it bordered on intoxicating, the sensation of being in the presence of seemingly limitless power given form enough to make Lei Weiyuans hair stand on end.
The Origin Treasures, he continued, no longer interested in concealing such a paltry secret in front of the treasure trove that had just been revealed to them. In the event that the Amadori discovered that I was holding onto possession of them, all I had to do was claim that I had stumbled upon them recently and offer it to them. They might not have bought the explanation, but as long as they received their due, the consequences would have been very limited.
The Flame Division has been secretly hoarding Origin Treasures? Wenjun Long asked. To what end?
Yao Shen gave him a nod, before continuing, And when it is in the shape I desire, I strike it with the hammer, making its shape unchanging. That way it will adhere to the form I have shaped it into.
Do you understand what this means, Patriarch Lei? Kang Long asked, his own expression tense as he studied Yao Shens newly acquired artifact.
Lumenite Armor, Lei Weiyuan muttered softly, the disbelief in his own tone unconcealable. Why tell me this, Yao Shen? he asked again, even though he knew the answer. But he had to hear it from the cultivator that had the audacity to make such a daring proposal, not even realizing that he had forgotten to use the honorifics.
I will forge six sets of Lumenite Armor. Each division shall receive two.
Everyone present except Yao Shen inhaled sharp breaths of air.
In exchange for? Lei Weiyuan warily asked, even though the suspicions in his heart were all but confirmed.
The Gorge of Death, a remnant of the Era of Turmoil. Even I am hesitant to explore that area alone, for there are plenty of forgotten methods that even I may be vulnerable to. For a Nascent Soul Cultivator, exploring it is unthinkable. But, what if you were armored in full-plate Lumenite Armor? What then?
Even the Dwarves do not hand out full-plate Lumenite Armor to any but the strongest among them. The six of us., Wenjun Long trailed off as he visualized the sight, a squad of powerful human cultivators clad in the mighty armor.
You wish us to accompany you on these excursions, then? What else? Lei Weiyuan tentatively asked, waiting for the trap to spring itself.
The reason why I didnt use the secret of unlocking Origin Treasures as a springboard for cementing our alliance into a pact was because it fell short of my requirements. Any attempt to acquire more Origin Treasures would inevitably be tracked down by the Amadori, after all. But this? This is a stroke of good fortune that exceeds that criteria. I am fundamental to this plan, a key piece that is as inviolable as it is irreplaceable. To betray me is to betray a future where your sect could supersede even the accomplishments of its past. With that in mind, all I ask for is your unshakable loyalty to the Modern Sect.
There it is, Lei Weiyuan thought to himself. The bitter taste of defeat.
