Chapter 743 -743 Journey to Green Hill (Completed)
Having obtained the Seven-leaf Mysterious Ginseng, Wang Chen felt a great sense of relief.
Of the Eight Treasures of Core Condensation, he had gathered seven, leaving only the Ten-Thousand-Year Star Sand.
Ten-Thousand-Year Star Sand was priced by the grain. Although it was also extremely rare, as long as one had enough Spirit Stones, it could certainly be gathered within the Thousand Star Immortal City.
With this, Wang Chen’s Core Formation faced basically no major obstacles.
He really had to thank Hu Jiaojiao!
After some thought, Wang Chen said, “I recently opened a grocery store in the Thousand Star Immortal City, mainly selling customized Magic Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts; I can even manage to refine Magical Treasures if needed. Just let me know if you require anything.”
...
“You can refine Magical Treasures?”
Hu Jiaojiao’s eyes sparkled, disbelief shimmering in her lively pupils.
Let alone the Monster Race, which was not adept at Artifact Refining, even among the human race, a four-tier Refinement Master capable of refining Magical Treasures was considered elite talent.
Wang Chen was young, his Cultivation Level had yet to break through to the Golden Core, yet he could refine Magical Treasures.
Such a strong innate talent was indeed rare.
Hu Jiaojiao didn’t doubt that Wang Chen was boasting; filled with astonishment, she joyfully said, “I’ve been wanting to refine a Lifebound Magic Treasure but didn’t know how to choose. It’s perfect to seek your counsel.”
Unlike the Monster Race, human Cultivators, as long as they had the capability and conditions, could create a Lifebound Magic Treasure tailored for themselves during the Purple Mansion tier, constantly nurturing it day and night. It could serve as both an offensive and defensive tool as well as an aid in Core Condensation.
Upon advancing to the Golden Core, one could even upgrade their Lifebound Magic Treasure.
However, when the Monster Race underwent Core Formation, they awakened Innate Divine Abilities, and thus their need for Lifebound Magic Treasures wasn’t as great as that of humans.
Some Great Monsters used their own Demon Core as their Lifebound Magic Treasure.
Generally speaking, Great Monsters with specific needs would create their Lifebound Magic Treasures based on the Innate Divine Abilities they awakened.
Upon hearing this, Wang Chen understood, “How many Innate Divine Abilities have you awakened?”
The quality of Demon Cores amongst the Monster Race is also divided into upper, middle, and lower grades, and the simplest way to judge the tier of a Demon Core is by looking at the number of Divine Abilities awakened.
A lower tier Demon Core has one, a middle tier has at least two, and very few can reach three.
An upper tier Demon Core starts with three!
Hu Jiaojiao didn’t know how to choose, which meant she had too many options, and was definitely three or more.
That was quite impressive!
The Monster Race of the Haotian Realm could overpower the human race as a whole, and their unique Innate Divine Abilities played a large part in this.
The more Divine Abilities one had, the stronger they were!
Hu Jiaojiao smiled with pursed lips, lifted her slender hand, and shook her spread fingers.
Five!
That was awesome!
Honestly, even Wang Chen, who had external help, envied that.
Innate Divine Abilities are among the strongest kinds of Divine Abilities.
The Monster Race only needs to level up to awaken theirs on their own, something that human Cultivators can’t learn or acquire.
“If you want my opinion…”
Wang Chen suppressed the turmoil in his heart and sincerely said, “Then you need to tell me the characteristics of your Innate Divine Abilities.”
“But that wouldn’t be very appropriate.”
Usually, the Monster Race wouldn’t disclose their Innate Divine Abilities to others to avoid revealing secrets, which would then be specifically targeted in battle.
Hu Jiaojiao, having awakened five Divine Abilities, had all the more reason to keep them secret.
“So my suggestion is, you should consider carefully, make your choice, and then tell me what kind of Magical Treasure you want,” Wang Chen said with a smile.
“I will do my utmost to help you refine a true Magical Treasure!”
Hu Jiaojiao gazed at him, her eyes brimming and shimmering with emotion, pausing as if in mock annoyance mixed with pleasure, her cheeks flushed with a hint of red.
Wang Chen met her gaze and his mind wavered, feeling somewhat enchanted.
The next moment, Hu Jiaojiao smiled sweetly, “I believe in you.”
Those simple four words contained a powerful depth of trust!
Wang Chen was at a loss for words momentarily.
The room quieted down, and a faint current of tender affection ambiguously surged in silence between the human and the fox spirit.
In the end, it was Hu Jiaojiao’s light laughter that broke the awkwardness between them.
She told Wang Chen about the five innate divine abilities she had awakened, not holding anything back.
Wang Chen listened very attentively.
As he listened, he was also recalling the Magical Treasure chapter from “Nine Directions Refinement,” looking for corresponding content.
As he listened on, Wang Chen’s expression became odd.
Hu Jiaojiao, who was very perceptive, asked, “What’s wrong?”
Wang Chen said with genuine admiration, “You are really lucky!”
“I know, right?”
Thinking he was referring to her awakening five innate divine abilities, Hu Jiaojiao gave Wang Chen an eye-roll before speaking, “My mother said that in the past thousand years of the Green Hill Fox Tribe, I am the only one who has awakened five abilities.”
Her demeanor was proud with a playful twist.
“I’m not talking about that.”
Scratching his head, Wang Chen said, “What I meant is, I happen to have a magic artifact that is perfect for you.”
Hu Jiaojiao, puzzled: “Huh?”
She was skeptical: “You aren’t just trying to cheer me up, are you?”
Even though she said so, the corners of the fox beauty’s lips curled up ever so slightly, revealing her inner joy.
Wang Chen couldn’t help but give a wry smile: “No, really.”
After hesitating for a moment, he took out the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror from the Sumeru Ring.
Among the innate divine abilities awakened by Hu Jiaojiao, three were related to “Perception,” “Insight,” and “Lock-On.”
The Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror was incredibly compatible with them.
Wang Chen had had the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror for a long time, and although it had helped him evade several calamities, he didn’t use it often in everyday life, and it didn’t substantially enhance his combat abilities.
Moreover, the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror was damaged.
In theory, a damaged treasure could slowly be restored through various methods, including sacrifice rituals and nurturing.
But Wang Chen owned too many treasures; he genuinely didn’t have the time or energy to spend on the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror.
To be honest, having the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror in his possession was really somewhat wasteful!
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on freeweɓnøvel.com.
It was for this reason that, after some consideration, Wang Chen had decided to give the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror to Hu Jiaojiao for her to refine as her lifebound magic treasure.
Whether it was an illusion or not, the moment he took out the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror, he faintly heard a “Huh?”
However, when Wang Chen listened carefully again, he heard nothing more.
Confronted with the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror that Wang Chen took out, Hu Jiaojiao first froze, then giggled and asked, “You, you want to give me this magic artifact?”
Hu Jiaojiao could become a Golden Core Cultivator, so she naturally wasn’t lacking in experience or knowledge. Even if she couldn’t identify the origin of the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror, she could feel the profound power contained within the treasure mirror.
Its value was undoubtedly precious!
“Yes.”
Wang Chen pushed the Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror forward, “I’m giving it to you!”
Having made his decision, he no longer hesitated and directly placed it in Hu Jiaojiao’s hands, “This Upper Clear Qiankun Mirror is very suitable for you, don’t refuse it.”
Wang Chen held her delicate hand, which felt soft and boneless like warm jade.
What was an unintentional intrusion just now had changed, and he found himself not wanting to let go.
Hu Jiaojiao didn’t resist or struggle, letting Wang Chen hold her hand as her pretty face flushed with a faint blush once again.
Utterly charming.
