Chapter 822: Chapter 718: You Look Handsome When Consuming Crystals (Super Chapter)
“The tumor known as ‘Treasure Pavilion’ must be eradicated!”
Niu Tu has decided to fully join the Seven Lustrous Federation’s plan.
…
In the prize pool area, there’s a plain-looking human who arrived early, observing others’ frequency of winnings, yet he never tried his luck.
‘I thought it was just a scouting mission, but I didn’t expect ‘Treasure Pavilion’ to launch such an interesting activity.’
He glanced at those red-eyed Africans, filled with disdain.
Only mediocre people rely on luck.
The strong often only rely on themselves.
‘Before participating in the Seven Lustrous Federation’s operation, let me, Demon Shadow, empty the prize pool; otherwise, it will only benefit those shiny guys of the Seven Lustrous Federation.’
He approached an idle crystal ball lottery machine, inserted 1800 high-purity Source Crystals, and as the space hole within the crystal ball gradually formed, the “Traceless Killer” Demon Shadow, disguised as a human, placed his hand on the crystal ball.
He closed his eyes, sensing the spatial fluctuations.
Demon Shadow was born from a space crystal core, a naturally occurring special race with innate space abilities.
When he first entered the Divine Domain Realm, with only a nascent domain, Demon Shadow had already touched the Space Law.
In terms of understanding space, he claimed to be second, with no one daring to claim first!
He once assassinated a descendant of a Holy Tier being and escaped unscathed from the pursuit of that Holy Tier being.
This established his name as the “Traceless Killer” Demon Shadow, and even the Holy Tier couldn’t find his shadow for revenge.
‘To assassinate the Tao Sect’s high-ranking officials at the Tao Sect’s entrance ceremony’ was a task he took from the “Shadow Guild.”
As the guild’s top card, except for a few failed missions early in his career, since he became famous, once he acted, no one could escape.
Even those in the Divine Domain Realm fell prey, toyed with like a cat with a mouse.
However, the task to assassinate the Tao Sect’s high-level—didn’t require him to assassinate several in the Divine Domain Realm, just to severely injure and disrupt the Tao Sect’s entrance ceremony.
He still failed.
He was discovered before even getting close, losing an Avatar as well.
This temporarily dropped his ranking from second to eighth in the “Shadow Guild,” with many big clients no longer specifying him for assassinations. It was his disgrace, only to be reclaimed from the Tao Sect!
Demon Shadow continuously sensed the spatial fluctuations inside the crystal ball, casting eight times in a row without drawing a Divine Weapon, yet he remained unfazed. It was an initial investment; once he figured it out, wouldn’t the Divine Weapons come easily?
By the ninth time, Demon Shadow invaded the prize pool warehouse via spatial fluctuations, seeing light clusters like countless stars.
The dim ones were rune equipment.
The moderately bright ones were Stepping Void Divine Weapons.
The dazzling ones were Unity Divine Weapons.
In the center of countless stars, as dazzling as the sun, surely was the Divine Domain Divine Weapon.
‘Treasure Pavilion actually put a Divine Domain Divine Weapon in the prize pool; should I say they are reputable or foolish?’
Demon Shadow couldn’t identify the precise shape of each Divine Weapon, but just by brightness, it was enough.
The space power then began to grasp the prizes, and Demon Shadow, with his understanding of the Space Law, slightly shifted the light cluster being grabbed.
A moderately bright light cluster was grabbed.
He opened his eyes, seeing the golden light effect, as a long spear flew from the void, bouncing out of the transparent crystal ball, landing in Demon Shadow’s hands.
“It’s a Stepping Void Divine Weapon! I’ve deciphered the prize pool space grasping algorithm!”
He frowned slightly, repeatedly examining the Divine Weapon in his hand.
“Why does it seem second-hand? The secret rune on it has some flaws… Ah, well, it’s still a Stepping Void Divine Weapon.”
He didn’t know that most Divine Weapons in the prize pool weren’t made by “Treasure Pavilion,” only ‘rare’ quality ones were. The rest were spoils from the Ghostly Sea battle, after annihilating countless pirate groups and imperial family forces.
Stepping Void and Unity Divine Weapons were countless, even several Divine Domain Divine Weapons.
Tang Yu left two decent Divine Domain Divine Weapons, tossing the rest into the “Treasure Pavilion.” Oh, some broken Divine Weapons were taken to the workshop for repair, essentially refurbished, showing no signs of being second-hand, but a few severely damaged ones he refused to waste rare materials on, leading them to become the ‘golden scraps’ in the prize pool.
No one also knew that drawing Divine Weapons was purely due to the warehouse being overly stocked, and some obscure Divine Weapons just couldn’t sell, prompting the use of Consuming Crystal-based promotion to clear them.
With the second-hand Divine Weapon spear drawn, Demon Shadow’s safeguard was gone, but he felt he had mastered the prize pool’s secret, confident in drawing eight Stepping Void Divine Weapons and one Unity Divine Weapon in ten attempts easily.
And that one-and-only Divine Domain Divine Weapon, ha…
Demon Shadow pressed the draw button, once again sensing that starlit prize pool.
Space Power, like a giant hand, reached for a dim light cluster. Demon Shadow manipulated space, causing the hand to slightly shift and grasp a mid-brightness light cluster on the side.
Buzz——
Space Power brushed past the mid-brightness light cluster, grabbing a particularly dim one that Demon Shadow hadn’t initially noticed.
He pulled it out.
Oh, it is a C-level rune weapon. The probability is similar to drawing a Stepping Void Divine Weapon, rare in its own right.
Demon Shadow: “…”
Missed, missed, let’s go again!
He invested Source Crystals and pressed extract,
Possibly due to nerves, Space Power again missed the mid-brightness light cluster.
Possibly lacking proficiency in using Space Law, Space Power again failed to grasp Demon Shadow’s intended target.
Possibly due to shaky hands, Space Power yet again grasped a C-level rune weapon.
Possibly because the surrounding crowd grew larger, demon Shadow, unused to being the focus, yet again…
Dong!
Dong Dong!
Dong Dong Dong!
Demon Shadow deposited high-purity Source Crystals countless times, extracted countless times; his plain, expressionless face now had bloodshot eyes, bulging veins on his forehead, and lips bitten pale.
‘Got it!’
He felt he grasped a dazzling bright light cluster.
It’s a Unity Divine Weapon!
Even if he couldn’t draw a Stepping Void Divine Weapon, what does it matter? A Unity Divine Weapon is worth dozens of Stepping Void Divine Weapons.
“Hahaha… uh?”
He watched the light dissipate, revealing a Longsword in the Crystal Ball. It was a Class A rune weapon, indeed quite superior in Class A ranking, worth two to three ordinary Class A weapons…
Is that the point here!
He grasped the dazzling light cluster, didn’t miss, wasn’t off target!
But isn’t the dazzling light supposed to represent a Unity Divine Weapon?
Fraud, the Treasure Pavilion is fraud!
Demon Shadow knelt on the ground, eyes vacant like a ragdoll played out.
Spectators shook their heads.
Someone went up and patted Demon Shadow’s shoulder.
Demon Shadow turned blankly.
That person said, “Although your unfortunate looks are disheveled, your Consuming Crystal demeanor is truly handsome, keep it up, don’t lose heart, the white tomorrow is waiting for you.”
…
Niu Tu touched his empty storage ring, his hands still trembling as he walked out of the “Treasure Pavilion.”
A Bull Clan member looked back at the “Prize Pool Area,” quickly comforting, “Boss, it seems a member of the Human Race fainted, compared to that, Boss, you are strong. Using their Human Race words, it’s called… determined spirit, strong body?”
“Shut up!”
Niu Tu snorted through his wide nostrils, glaring fiercely.
Suddenly he paused.
His purpose in coming to the “Treasure Pavilion” was seemingly to assess Tao City’s defense power, but, but… let bygones fade like the wind, many top forces, lone experts acted together, and it’s said the Seven Lustrous Federation prepared a secret weapon, failure is impossible.
Defense power? Doesn’t matter if it’s unclear.
Anyway, except for the Sect Master and those Inner Sect elders who need concern, Outer Sect Elder Yan is merely an ordinary Unity Realm, no other powerful figures around. Even if their assassination fails, as long as they hold off the Sect Master and those Inner Sect elders, relying only on their subordinates, they could massacre Tao City.
Bang!
A blast sound came from dozens of streets away, thick smoke rising darkly.
Niu Tu’s perception immediately swept over, his frustration over the emptied storage ring instantly vanished, “Let’s go, there’s a good show to watch.”
He saw two figures rushing to the top of a tall building, judging by those pointed ears and dense gray fur, it’s the Wolf Clan, won’t mistake it this time!
