Chapter 825: Chapter 814: The Wealth of Flying Tiger Hall

"Ye Zhen, the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill is extremely important to the Divine Sect! I’ll tell you just how important it is— with these four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills, the Divine Sect’s dominance over Qinglan Martial City is only a matter of time!

Previously, I promised you that as long as you could hold the territory of the Red Fire Subdivision, all the spoils of this battle and the income from Red Fire Martial City for the next year would be yours!

However, due to the emergence of this Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill, I must go back on my word!

But, you can ask for any compensation you want. I hope you can hand over these four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills to the Divine Sect. They won’t only bring indescribable benefits to the sect but also great benefits to you!"

In the underground treasure vault of Flying Tiger Hall, Ye Zhen was still marveling at the terrifying energy contained in the four dazzling fire drills before him. He didn’t even know their names when he received a talisman communication from Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong.

A message with a very tactful tone!

"Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill?" After reading the message, Ye Zhen glanced casually at Yua Qianlou beside him. The latter instantly appeared extremely awkward and uneasy, not knowing where to place his hands.

Yua Qianlou was responsible for the investigation of Flying Tiger Hall, and Ye Zhen had just seen this thing when he received Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong’s message, indicating that Jian Qianxiong got the news even before Ye Zhen.

Who informed him?

The answer was obvious!

"Lord Ye, this... this Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill is the one treasure over which the Sect Leader’s secret order commands us to risk our lives to either obtain or send out the information upon seeing it.

Moreover, this secret order has been issued among us Shadow Moon Guard members for over a hundred years! The Divine Sect hasn’t found Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills for over a hundred years."

At this point, Yua Qianlou straightened his back suddenly, "Lord Ye, it’s my duty, please forgive me for my actions!"

"Are you part of the Shadow Moon Guard?"

Ye Zhen had indeed heard of the Shadow Moon Guard’s name, as people like Fengh Qingyue and Tian Guizhang had mentioned this secret force that listens only to the Sect Leader, possessing an extremely strong power, yet rarely seen.

"Yes, I am the commander of the Shadow Moon Guard formation. Please forgive me, Lord Ye!"

Yua Qianlou had a bit of a conscience, feeling somewhat ashamed for directly reporting this information to the Sect Leader.

"Actually, for something like this, you don’t have to be so sneaky; you could have reported it directly to me. Since it is extremely important to the Divine Sect, I have no reason to hold it back."

Instantly, the trace of righteousness on Yua Qianlou’s face disappeared, replaced with an expression full of shame.

"Since you know about the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill, do you know what it’s used for?" Ye Zhen asked Yua Qianlou.

Ye Zhen was very curious about this; what kind of treasure is the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill that could make Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong speak to him in such a tone?

However, the energy aura it emitted, far stronger by hundreds or thousands of times than a Supreme Attribute Spirit Crystal, had already marked it as extraordinary.

This time, Yua Qianlou solemnly shook his head at Ye Zhen, "Reporting to Lord Ye, I truly don’t know the purpose of this treasure! I only know that each new Shadow Moon Guard member’s first task is to pass on the secret order regarding the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill."

Ye Zhen could tell that Yua Qianlou was not lying about this matter.

After pondering for a moment, Ye Zhen waved his hand to send a talisman communication to Sect Leader Jian Qianxiong. The message was simple: he would hand over all four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills to the Divine Sect without asking for compensation, but he wanted to know the true use of the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill!

The reason Ye Zhen agreed so readily was due to two reasons: First, Ye Zhen indeed sensed the terrifying energy contained within the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill.

Ye Zhen could further feel that the power within the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill was not something he could currently activate. It was a vast sea-like energy filled with destruction and violence.

Ye Zhen could guarantee that if his Divine Sense triggered the power within the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill, the terrifying energy inside would flood out like a torrent, destroying Ye Zhen!

The power of a Supreme Attribute Spirit Crystal requires Ye Zhen to cautiously refine ten times in order to complete the process. Just think of how terrifying it would be with the energy contained that’s hundreds or thousands of times that of a Supreme Attribute Spirit Crystal!

Moreover, Ye Zhen felt that the power within the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill was more pure and powerful!

Since it couldn’t be used, it was better to hand it over to someone within the Divine Sect who could use it, possibly bringing good consequences for Ye Zhen.

The second reason was simpler; because of his relationship with Fengh Qingyue, Ye Zhen was already tightly bound to the Sun and Moon Divine Sect, so handing over this treasure wouldn’t make much of a difference!

Soon, Jian Qianxiong replied with a talisman communication.

To Ye Zhen’s disappointment, the message did not explain the use of the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drill; it only mentioned that during the Divine Sacrifice of the Sun and Moon Divine Sect five months later, Ye Zhen would understand its purpose!

Moreover, the message mentioned the compensation for Ye Zhen— Jian Qianxiong proactively offered compensation to Ye Zhen.

This compensation is also related to the Jiazi divine ceremony, which leaves Ye Zhen somewhat puzzled.

Jian Qianxiong said that five months later, during the Jiazi divine ceremony, Ye Zhen will exceptionally serve as the Assistant Priest. At that time, there will surely be a surprising benefit for Ye Zhen!

Regarding this position as Assistant Priest for the Jiazi divine ceremony, Ye Zhen didn’t feel much, but according to Jian Qianxiong’s tone, it seems that this position as Assistant Priest has extraordinary benefits.

Everything is somewhat mysterious.

Since the promise was made, Ye Zhen followed Jian Qianxiong’s request and packed up these four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills to send to the Sun and Moon Divine Sect’s Main Temple.

However, while using the storage ring to pack the Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills, Ye Zhen was once again greatly shocked.

These Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills are not large, each only the size of a fist, and are packed using a mid-grade storage treasure ring.

With a thought from Ye Zhen, he stored these four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills in that mid-grade storage treasure ring, but in just a moment, the storage ring used for transportation began to emit series of cracking sounds!

Crack!

Crack!

Fine cracks began to appear in the mid-grade storage treasure ring, and in just a few breaths, after the cracks had spread, the mid-grade storage ring shattered directly, and the four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills escaped from the Mustard Seed Space and fell out!

This made Ye Zhen’s face change drastically; in his storage ring, there were tens of thousands of High Grade Spirit Crystals, nearly a hundred Supreme Spirit Crystals, and dozens of Supreme Attribute Spirit Crystals. Throughout the journey, from switching from a Low Grade Treasure Ring to a Low Grade Spirit Ring, the storage space had never been destroyed.

But now, these four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills destroyed a mid-grade treasure ring within moments!

Somewhat unconvinced, Ye Zhen stored the four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills in a High Grade Treasure Ring, but it only lasted a few breaths longer than the mid-grade treasure ring before the storage ring of High Grade Artifact level was destroyed again!

Ye Zhen doesn’t have a storage ring of Supreme Artifact level, and as for the Low Grade Spirit Artifact level storage ring in Ye Zhen’s hand, he didn’t dare to use it. If it really gets destroyed, Ye Zhen will be at a loss!

Fifteen minutes later, the Main Temple of the Divine Sect sent a message that these Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills must be stored in a High Grade Spirit Artifact level storage ring, and once stored, the High Grade Spirit Artifact level storage ring will definitely be destroyed.

The Divine Sect has already dispatched experts who are rushing at full speed to Red Fire Martial City to receive these four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills!

Leaving Yu Qianlou to guard these four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills, Ye Zhen continued to take control of everything in the Flying Tiger Hall.

Soon, the wealth of Flying Tiger Hall was accounted, though the amount was a bit surprising to Ye Zhen.

The Spirit Crystals found within Flying Tiger Hall were not many; counting both Low Grade Spirit Crystals and High Grade Spirit Crystals, the total number was only about eleven million mid-grade Spirit Crystals, but still more than Ye Zhen had imagined.

The true abundance of wealth was in the various minerals and materials!

There were more than a thousand pieces of White Flame Essence Gold, each equivalent to a thousand pieces of mid-grade Spirit Crystals, other types like Purple Light Copper Mother, Ten Thousand Fire Stone, Tri-Color Iron Essence, etc., in great numbers, with a total value exceeding forty million mid-grade Spirit Crystals.

Counting other spiritual medicines, spirit pills, cultivation technique manuals, weapons, etc., the total seizure exceeded sixty million mid-grade Spirit Crystals.

This is an astonishing wealth; Ye Zhen originally thought that with Hall Master He Zixiong and his storage ring vanished into nothingness, there wouldn’t be much to seize. To his surprise, the seizure was quite substantial, leaving Ye Zhen somewhat puzzled.

However, Commander Jiangg Biao of the Black Tiger Guards, who decided to become Ye Zhen’s puppet, resolved Ye Zhen’s doubts.

In the past, only a small portion of Flying Tiger Hall’s income actually fell into the hands of Hall Master He Zixiong, while over ninety percent of the income had to be handed over to the Treasure Vault to be registered by the accountant.

Every year at the end, someone secretly comes to take away the treasures from the Treasure Vault.

As for those four Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills, they are the output of the past three years and also belonged to the sequence to be taken away. Unfortunately, this stuff was too terrifying, and it’s already destroyed two High Grade Treasure Rings, one Supreme Treasure Ring, three Low Grade Spirit Rings, and one mid-grade Spirit Ring!

It’s impossible to transport, so it’s always been left here, but according to He Zixiong, someone might come to transport these Earth Core Crimson Fire Drills this year.

However, these are not Ye Zhen’s greatest gains; Ye Zhen’s greatest reward is the sixty-plus Heaven Rank Lower Grade tiger-type demon beasts in the Flying Tiger Hall’s rear beast pen!

Plus, he’s successfully seized from the captured Vein Forging Realm martial artists the Soul Beast Control Talismans for these sixty-plus Heaven Rank Middle Lower Grade tiger-type demon beasts!

In other words, these sixty-plus Heaven Rank Middle Lower Grade tiger-type demon beasts have changed ownership at this moment and become the power governed by Ye Zhen.

Under normal circumstances, without the constraint of perverse demonic beasts like the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, these sixty-plus controlled Heaven Rank tiger-type demon beasts are truly a formidable and potentially decisive force!

"Lord Ye, all the assets have been counted, may I ask Lord Ye, how should we handle the one thousand six hundred prisoners?" Zuo Xiong suddenly came to request Ye Zhen!

At the same moment, everyone’s gaze turned towards Ye Zhen. How to deal with the prisoners is indeed a major dilemma! (To be continued.
