Chapter 256 Sky Lightning Crown
Long Ming let out a hearty laugh when he realized his speculations were right.
' What? Why are you getting angry, hm? It was your fault to not specify the methods how a person can consume materials for the daily quest.' Long Ming shrugged.
[ Ding! Constellation Chaotic Evil Contractor donates +20 Star coins!]
[ Ding! Many constellations are praising Host for his cunningness]
[ Ding! Constellation Great Imp of Wealth adjusted the beta testing of the system by spending causality! Remaining time of the beta testing: ten days]
' This bitch.'
Long Ming almost spat out when he saw that. However, no matter what, he found a big loophole in this system.
In future, If he can't spend the item, he would just sell them.
" What is it, Brother Long?"
" Oh, It's nothing. I just became a bit absent minded." Long Ming smiled back.
Not long after, the servant of Qin Yong brought back the treasures in a spatial ring. Checking the treasures, Long Ming nodded with satisfaction.
" Not bad, Imperial Family does have quite a lot of treasures, huh?" Long Ming laughed lightly.
" Of course we have. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to manage such an empire, Brother Long."
" Then what happened to Qiu Ruoyou? How is she?" Long Ming asked casually.
" Well…What can I say? She straight went to seclusion after everything was solved. However, I can certainly see that my elder brother's mood really became bad after seeing Qiu Ruoyou come out unscathed."
" Did she give you any important intel?"
" She did. And it confirmed a few of my speculations." Qin Yong's expression stiffened when he heard Long Ming's question.
" I understand. However, What's about the secret treasure realm I am hearing these days?"
" Are you talking about the Paragon Luo Xi's tomb?" Qin Yong looked at him.
" Paragon Luo Xi was a Grand Heaven Ascension Realm cultivator during the time of Heavenly Emperor Crimson Sky. He was pretty late to join the fight for the heavenly throne."
" But after the fight, he became almost an unmatched person in his era. After all, Grand Heaven Ascension Realm cultivators are the just below the Heavenly Emperors."
" And without a Heavenly Emperor, they would reign supreme."
" He established Grand Pill Palace in the central province, which still stands towering to this day."
" Then is there a treasure map of his tomb was discovered by Qiu Ruoyou?" Long Ming asked in a curious voice.
" It's not like that. Some parts of the treasure map has been circulating around a lot lately. However, there are also some parts which were more important."
" Beside, It's not a tomb. His inheritance lies inside an ancient realm that existed more than 40,000 Years ago."
" So, he buried his inheritance in another secret realm and made the maps fragmented?" Long Ming asked.
" You are right. However, most of the maps obtained by cultivators are fake. It's getting hard to discern the original ones." Qin Yong chuckled.
" When it is going to open? Any specific date?"
" Not really. However, It's going to cause a big commotion in the entire Eastern and Central Provinces. Because the secret realm is the exact border of two provinces."
" Besides, the era of geniuses is starting. Who would miss such an opportunity?"
Long Ming laughed lightly as he nodded. " Certainly, Prince Qin Yong. If you ever requires my help, you can freely contact me."
" Don't worry, Brother Long. I would be needing you soon."
Long Ming's smile twitched when he heard that. He never wanted to do anything for the Imperial Family. However, as time passed, he became more and more embroiled with them.
" Besides, you should be careful these days." Qin Yong got up and turned around.
" My brother's eyes already fallen on you. So, it's better to exercise caution."
" I shall keep your words in my heart, Second Prince."
Saying anything else, Long Ming turned around and vanished. Qin Yong sighed as he asked.
" What did you saw?"
" Nothing…That young man is like a statue made of obsidian…
Cold and dark, with no way to see what's deep inside him."
" His strength?"
" He appears to be Peak of Primordial Spirit Unification Realm…
But I can be mistaken. Didn'y he showed his Minor completion Imperial Physique?"
" Haah, I guess each have their own secrets." Qin Yong sighed as his eyes narrowed.
" Shall we give him a little test?"

" Well, Well… Let's see how much I credits I have amassed till now."
Opening the system shop, Long Ming realized he already had 4500 Credits.
Scrolling through the shop, he could see some decent items. However, to his current cultivation, they are pretty worthless.
However, there were a few particular things which attracted his attention.
[ Silver Starlight Great Sword: Made with Silver Star Mirthil and inscribed with ancient lunar runes. It contains the power of Sacred Moon Energy, cleansing anything filthy or evil]
[ Price: 30,000 Credits]
[ Sky Lightning Crown: Once a blue lightning struck a heavenly tree. Instead of exploding, the tree absorbed the lightning bolt, turning it into a mineral. This crown was a treasure, crafted with this mineral, almost resist any kind of lightning]
[ Price: 50,000 Credits]
Long Ming's eyes gleamed when he read the description. He was thinking about how to solve the problem of his Minor Physique Tribulation of Nether Dragon Void Devouring Physique.
And this Sky Lightning Crown gave him an ample opportunity.
' However, I feel this treasure isn't of this world. Otherwise, it would have been graded by the system. Hmm, but looking at the price…This feels powerful enough, I should get this no matter what.'
Taking a deep breath, Long Ming closed the system window as he fell into contemplation.
' There are only ten days remaining. I hope the reward increases every day, Else it would be impossible to get that item.'
' Or, I can use my Star Coins as a bargaining chip to purchase it.'
He already saw how horrifying his Nether Dragon Void Devouring Physique can be.
' An Ancient Heaven Grade Physique can be so powerful. Then the Minor Physique Tribulation… How powerful it would be?'
Thinking about his Great Mystic Mountain Physique, Long Ming felt a pang of sourness. However, he is determined to get the Sky Lightning Crown no matter what.
Instead of returning to the abode of Four Seasons Valley, Long Ming chose to stroll around the market. However, a familiar figure caught his eye.
" Lin'er?"
