Chapter 761: Birth of the Heavenly Mystery Box (2)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
With a thought, one after one Heavenly Mystery Boxes spat out. Xiao Shi roughly counted. This time, more than a hundred Heavenly Mystery Boxes were born. These Heavenly Mystery Boxes had many different types. What Xiao Shi was thinking about now was how to distribute and use these Heavenly Mystery Boxes.
“First of all, most of the Heavenly Mystery Box will definitely be used to reward the members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace.
“Many members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace have a desire for the Heavenly Mystery Box. After all, this is something unique to the Heavenly Mystery Palace. It’s impossible for me to treat the Heavenly Mystery Box externally and not internally. I must prioritize letting the members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace enjoy the Heavenly Mystery Box.
“Moreover, using the Heavenly Mystery Box as the internal reward of the Heavenly Mystery Palace can also better promote the development of the Heavenly Mystery Palace. At the same time, if these members can obtain good items from the Heavenly Mystery Box, it will also greatly increase their strength.
“As for myself, there’s no need to keep too many Heavenly Mystery Boxes. On the one hand, my current requirements for items aren’t very high. The items I need have to be at least at the Daolord level. On the other hand, the items that can be obtained from the Heavenly Mystery Box are random. The chances of obtaining items above the Daolord level are minimal.
“One has to bear the price of opening the Heavenly Mystery Box. The price of opening the Heavenly Mystery Box for the first time has yet to come.”
Xiao Shi thought of the price he had to pay when he first opened the Heavenly Mystery Box. It was a flame icon. But this price is not the price of immediate effect. Instead, there was a delay. He did not know when it would arrive.
And the further back it went, the more worried Xiao Shi was. After all, the price he would suffer would also change as his strength and cultivation increased. If this price came now, it was probably only the price at the Daolord level. But if it had come a little later, perhaps it was the price at the level of a demigod.
Therefore, Xiao Shi felt that there was no need for him to open the Heavenly Mystery Box unless he was absolutely confident that he could obtain an item that was useful to him. If the items obtained from the Heavenly Mystery Box were ordinary but the price was very high, the gains would not make up for the losses.
“Apart from using most of the Heavenly Mystery Boxes as a reward for the members of the Heavenly Mystery Palace, I can also take out a portion of the Heavenly Mystery Boxes to make a deal with the three demigod Heavenly Kings or think of a way to rope in some people from their domains into my domain.”
Xiao Shi calculated the use of the Heavenly Mystery Box. He knew very well how valuable the Heavenly Mystery Box was in the Tianwu Continent. Even the three demigod Heavenly Kings were tempted by the Heavenly Mystery Box.
Previously, although the three demigod Heavenly Kings had left some methods outside his domain to prevent other martial artists from joining his domain, now that Xiao Shi had become the Daolord, under the concealment of the starlight of the Behind-the-scenes Heavenly Dao, the methods left behind by the three demigod heavenly kings had already failed. They could no longer see through Xiao Shi’s domain either. It was difficult for them to use the previous method to restrict others from approaching his domain.
Moreover, his domain expanded on the original foundation. This made it so that even if someone outside approached his domain, they wouldn’t be killed by the means set up by the three demigod Heavenly Kings. He could completely bring the warriors outside into his domain.
If it really didn’t work, he could bring them in through the spatial travel of the Heavenly Mystery Mask.
With an important resource like the Heavenly Mystery Box, Xiao Shi had an important bargaining chip to rope in the other martial artists and trade with the three demigod Heavenly Kings.
He thought for a moment. He felt that he could try to contact Heavenly King Yao Xi first. He could see how much Heavenly King Yao Xi valued the Heavenly Mystery Box first.
Based on how much Heavenly King Yao Xi valued the Heavenly Mystery Box, he could accurately determine the weight and value of the Heavenly Mystery Box in the hearts of these Heavenly Kings.
This way, he could make a better price.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shi immediately contacted Heavenly King Yao Xi.
On the other hand, Dark clouds covered the sky, layered and boundless in a mysterious area of the Tianwu Continent. The pale sunlight tried its best to pierce through the clouds and sprinkle on this lifeless land.
Here was a forbidden area for life!
The grayish-brown land stretched as far as the eye could see. Rotten corpses and gray bones are like dark sores growing on the surface. A huge blood-colored lake was embedded in the ground like a scarlet gem.
There was an island above the blood lake. Up close, it was an island, but if one looked from afar, they would discover that this island was more like a tomb! At the top of the tomb was an altar made of large golden stones.
The altar floated in the air. 9,999 floating stone steps extended. At this moment, a figure covered in a black cloak was climbing up the stone steps step by step. Soon, the figure shrouded in the black cloak successfully stepped onto the altar under the continuous climb.
“He has become a Daolord!” A low and hoarse voice came from the black cloak. His voice was solemn.
“It’s too fast! It’s really too fast! He clearly just became a Sage, but he actually became a Daolord so quickly! The most terrifying thing is that I don’t know how he became a Daolord! At the same time, his Dao… is the ancient Heavenly Dao!! I think that the plan we previously formulated must be changed!”
A figure sat cross-legged on the golden altar. The figure lowered his head. There was no aura emitted from his body, making him look like a corpse. After hearing this, he raised his head slightly.
If Xiao Shi was here, he would definitely be able to recognize him at a glance. The figure sitting cross-legged on the altar was the Great Wu’s prince! However, the current prince had already undergone a huge change.
Half of his face was filled with countless red blood vessels, making him look extremely ferocious. The entire left eye that Xiao Shi had dug out was only left with a hole, but there were countless blood vessels that scattered from the inside and fused into the array formation on the altar below. They were augmented by the array formation and spread out.
The blood vessels on his face squirmed crazily the moment he raised his head. They gathered in his left eye socket and turned into a pupil as deep as the starry sky. The current prince looked very strange. The right side of his face appeared to be in a lifeless state, and his right eye was closed. The left side of his face was deep. It was as if he had become another person. “What do you have in mind?” His voice was also filled with vicissitudes. It was not the original voice of the prince at all.
“We need to move faster!” The person in the black cloak looked very anxious. “I have a feeling, If we move according to our original plan, it won’t be long before this person becomes a demigod! Once he steps into the demigod realm, our plan will be very difficult to succeed! We have to move early!”
The “prince” sitting on the altar shook his head. “The advancement of a demigod isn’t that simple. No matter how extraordinary he is, it’s impossible for him to advance to a demigod in a short period of time.
“But you’re right. We do need to plan ahead. It’s necessary to speed up the plan. This person has more secrets than I imagined. How about this? We’ll split up. You speed up on your side. I’ll give it a try here and see if I can directly break his Dao!”
The person in the black cloak was stunned. “You want to break his Dao?”
The prince, who was sitting on the altar, smiled. “All the Dao in the world, be it the Heavenly Dao or the mortal Dao, have flaws. As long as there’s a flaw, we can break the Dao! You should know that when I was at the Daolord Realm, I was famous for breaking the Dao.. It’s not that I haven’t broken the Heavenly Dao before!”
