Chapter 238 Immortal Fate Stone
Following General Zhao, Long Ming reached a giant pagoda situated in the imperial palace.
" Well, You can take anything below Royal grade treasures and technique. And it must be a single item." General Zho reminded Long Ming once again.
" But, I will suggest you take some medicinal herbs or pills. It will increase your strength substantially. There are a lot of treasures, so take your time."
" As you say, General Zhao." Long Ming nodded as he followed him inside.
It was similar to the Treasures Pavilion of Four Seasons Valley. He could see many guards surrounding the place. Each of them was either at the Primordial Spirit Unification Realm or even at the Harmonization Realm.
" Hoho, Is he the winner of the Battle Tournament?" A middle-aged man laughed as he walked towards General Zhao and Long Ming.
" I am Feng Zhitai, The manager of Treasure Pagoda." Feng Zhitao spoke. Long Ming used his Heavenly Revelation Eyes and saw Feng Zhitai was at the Peak of Harmonization Realm.
However, due to some strange reasons, Long Ming felt that Feng Zhitai could fight against even Nine Transformations of Soul Realm.
" Come with me, I shall show you around." Feng Zhitai spoke as he took Long Ming with him.
" Then, I shall go back. I have a lot of work to do." General Zhao spoke as he turned around and left.
" Well, As you can see, the Treasure Pagoda is the place where all sorts of treasures of Holy Qilin Imperial Family's treasures are stored."
" Does that mean the Imperial Family members can simply come and take any treasures here?" Long Ming asked curiously.
" Of course not." Feng Zhitao laughed lightly. " Even if you are the Imperial Prince or Princess, you need to accumulate certain merits and get approved by His Majesty."
" But yes, The regular treasures they get here on a regular basis are just a grade below than the powerful Imperial Lineages." Feng Zhitai spoke.
" There are eight floors. You can go up to the sixth floor and pick a single treasure or technique."
" Go ahead, I am waiting here." Feng Zhitai yawned as he took a seat.
" Besides, Don't just rush to the higher floor from first. This place will help you widen your horizons."
" I shall keep Elder Feng's words in my mind." Long Ming nodded as he turned around and walked away.
Walking around, Long Ming sighed when he saw the shelves full of rare treasures and scrolls.
' Damn, this is what a treasure storage should look like. Four Seasons Valley barely got half of the total contents here.' Long Ming sighed inwardly.
At first, he walked around the ground floor. He could see it was filled with all sorts of low grade techniques and Yellow grade treasures.
Then slowly and steadily, he reached the third floor.?He could see some servants here and there, taking care of the treasury.
Their strength wasn't bad. Almost all of them were in the True Core Formation Realm and Primordial Spirit Unification Realm.
However, one can see that their talents were simply the lowest. It will take several years for them to break through to the next small stage.
Therefore, they can only act like servants here.
However, as Long Ming was walking leisurely, he paused his steps. He suddenly looked at an old man who was sitting on an old wooden chair.
" You monkeys! Hurry up and clean properly!" The old man shouted as he held a small bamboo stick.
" The one who will do the best today will get an Energy Core Pill from me."
" Hmph, Old Li, You think we are three year old children?" A young servant snorted.
" What are we going to do with it?"
" It won't help us in our cultivation at all."
Long Ming walked toward Old Li as he smiled lightly. " Elder, May I know your identity?"
" Haha, Young master, He is Li Qingyi. He is just a useless old man."
" Shush, Are you forgetting he is also our superior?" Another servant laughed lightly.
" Don't come to us complaining if he beats you with that bamboo stick."
Li Qingyi snorted when he heard that. " These damned monkeys. Just wait, I will turn you guys into flatbread using this stick."
" En, Young Man, Are you Long Ming?" Li Qingyi looked at him. " Not bad, You are quite adept at hiding yourself. I can see why you won the Battle Tournament."
" And the final match…Hahaha! You really pulled out an impressive trick."
" It's just a light hearted play, Elder Li. No need to embarrass me so much." Long Ming cupped his fist as he looked at Li Qingyi.
" Haah! What can even I do?' Li Qingyi sighed. " I am just an old man with a limited lifespan and no power."
" I doubt, Elder Li." Long Ming grinned. " I believe you have rather a long life. As for power, Hehe… Who knows."
Li Qingyi's eyes narrowed lightly. But they became normal instantly. " Anyway, You are here to pick a treasure, yes?"
" I think Elder Li has spent a lot of time in in Treasure Pagoda." Long Ming nodded. " I wonder if you can give me some pointers?"
" Pointers, huh?" Li Qingyi shrugged. " But as you can see, I have lost both of my legs. I can't walk around. The pagoda is too vast, no?"
Long Ming smiled as he turned around. " How about I carry you on my back?"
" Are you sure?"
" Of course."
Without saying anything he helped Li Qingyi climb on his back and started to walk.
However, Long Ming barely took a few steps before he realized that Li Qingyi's weight increased.
" Well, Young man, I don't think carrying me would be an easy task." Li Qingyi chuckled.
" Anyway, There is the Xuan grade treasure, called Flower Returning Dagger. It can…"
Li Qingyi chatted casually. However, he also gave a detailed description of each treasure.
But Long Ming could feel it. With each passing breath, the weight of Li Qingyi increased.
Soon enough, Long Ming had to use his true qi as he kept Li Qingyi lifted. As they traveled, Li Qingyi was also keeping tabs on Long Ming.
They reached the sixth floor while talking. However, Li Qingyi saw Long Ming was still calm as water.
" Not bad, young people can still be cultivated." Li Qingyi nodded.
" Is that so?" Long Ming smiled as he carried him. " I will take that as a compliment."
However, he was almost cursing Li Qingyi inwardly. Currently, he was completely using all his true qi and physical body to keep Li Qingyi lifted. And now, he even used the qilin bloodline as his physique became bolstered.
" Interesting, Although I saw many outsiders use our Blood Qilin Sacred Pool, not many of them managed to have such a strong breath of Qilin as you." Li Qingyi chuckled.
" Brat, Are you sure you are not some illegitimate member of the Imperial Qin Family?"
" Why would I?" Long Ming laughed lightly. " Elder Li, You are saying like one can only have Qilin bloodline in the Qin Family."
" Hmhm, You are right." Li Qingyi sighed. " I guess I am turning into senile as I am getting old."
" So, Let me cut to the chase. The Azure Qilin Thirteen Swords is a Noble grade technique. But, if you completely cultivate it, you can get a glimpse of Azure Qilin Sword Path."
" Similarly, The Great Qilin Claw Art andRain Summoning Wave are also which are suitable for your powerful physical body."
" As for treasures, The Azure Scaled Boots andAzure Scaled Armors are very good treasures of Noble grade. You can use them all the way till you reach Dao Refining Realm."
" However, If you want to take a Medicinal Pill, I will recommend you to take Tribulation Shielding Pill." Li QIngyi spoke. " This pill will help you to overcome the lightning tribulations under the Dao Refining Realm."
" And, there is also a pill called Qilin Blood Pill. But I wonder if you can take that." Li Qingyi chuckled.
" Elder Li, What about some refining material?"Long Ming asked. " Specially for…Natal Weapon refining?"
" What? Natal Weapon?"
Li Qingyi's eyes shrunk, as his weight abruptly increased. " Haha! Brat, You are truly ambitious! You are thinking of a natal weapon from now?"
Long Ming almost cursed aloud when he felt Li Qingyi again increase his weight. It was he was carrying a mountain on his back.
' Fuck! Now I feel what my opponents felt when they got crushed by my Great Mystic Mountain Physique.' Long Ming gave a wry smile inwardly.
" Very well, Follow me." Li Qingyi spoke as he pointed at the place.
" You are pretty amusing, Young Man. Since you carried me for so long, I can't mistreat you." Li Qingyi spoke as he pointed to a strange stone slab piled among various treasures.
" What's that?" Long Ming asked as he picked the stone slab.
" This is Immortal Fate Stone. It's the best item to forge Natal Weapons."
" What? Immortal Fate Stone?!" Long Ming almost dropped the stone.
