The manor was extremely huge, just like a small city.
During the exploration, the Night Devil Team only met with a few straggling spirits.
Soon enough, the team arrived at the core of the manor and it was a large garden.
Inside the large garden, a pitch-black figure’s back was facing them. In front of the black figure, there was a flower that was rooted into the void and was emitting black radiance.
The black flower had nine layers of petals, each layer was spinning at a different speed and were spinning in different directions. The first layer was spinning left, while the second layer was spinning right, and the third layer was spinning left again.
With close observation, one would notice there were extremely intricate purple patterns on each of the black petals. The petals didn’t have any abnormal effects when looking at it initially, but after a period of time, it felt as though the spirit soul was getting sucked away.
“Flower of Spirit.” One of the Night Devil Team members couldn’t help saying.
During previous trips to the Ancient Stone City, the Night Devil Team didn’t encounter the Flower of Spirit, therefore, they didn’t expect to see it this time.
“Die!”
The pitch-black figure turned around and lunged at the Night Devil Team like a thick fog.
In an instant, several figures were sent flying.
This saint lord-class spirit was obviously superior to the Night Devil Saint Lord. The team wasn’t able to resist the attack.In an instant, several team members were sent flying.This saint lord-class spirit was obviously superior to the Night Devil Saint Lord.

“Such strength.” Li Fuchen was also sent flying.”Such strength.” Li Fuchen was also sent flying.
He reckoned that the spirit wasn’t this powerful when it was still alive. Its strength increased by several times after turning into a spirit.He reckoned that the spirit wasn’t this powerful when it was still alive. The strength actually increased several times after turning into a spirit.
Clang!Swish!
After unsheathing the Joint-Heaven Sword, Li Fuchen battled the spirit.Li Fuchen drew the Joint-Heaven Sword and battled the spirit.
“This is a supreme rate weapon?””This is a supreme rate weapon?”
This was the first time the Night Devil Team saw Li Fuchen using the Joint-Heaven Sword and were all surprised.This was the first time the members of the Night Devil Team saw Li Fuchen using the Joint-Heaven Sword. They were all astonished.
Not all heaven lords were wielding supreme rate weapons.It was known that not all heaven lords wielded supreme rate weapons.
It wouldn’t be exaggerating to say that any supreme rate weapon was worth at least 10 million peak-grade spirit stones.
Pfff!
With the Joint-Heaven Sword, Li Fuchen split the body of the spirit in a single slash. It wasn’t able to kill the spirit one a single slash, but it was significantly better than before.
“Eternal Night Freeze!”
Seeing that Li Fuchen could hold back the spirit, the Night Devil Saint Lord quickly used his kill move to freeze the spirit.
Bang Boom Bang Boom…
With the relentless attacks from everyone, the spirit’s qi presence finally had traces of weakness.
Of course, this was mainly because Li Fuchen could hold back the spirit. If Li Fuchen couldn’t hold back the spirit, the team and the spirit would be mutually exhausting each other. It wasn’t possible to suppress the spirit.
After one day, the spirit’s qi presence was weakened by 10%. Three days later, the qi presence dropped to 50%.
Five days later, the spirit’s qi presence was left with 1%.
“Keep it up everyone, we are almost done.” Gulisha was very excited.
After eliminating the spirit, they would be able to obtain the Flower of Spirit. It would be able to increase everyone’s wealth by a few ten thousand peak-grade spirit stones.
Apart from that, the spirit possessed wealth too and it should be rather significant.
…
In another manor, the Blood Print Team was also battling a spirit.
But there was a huge difference. After over a week, several members of the Blood Print Team were injured. A few of them were even severely injured. On the contrary, the spirit’s qi presence was only slightly weakened.
Without any supreme rate weapon, they would need at least one month to kill the spirit.
“Damn it, why is it so powerful?” The Blood Shadow Demon Liege had an awful expression.
Had it not been for the Flower of Spirit that had been condensed here, he would have ordered the team to retreat.
“Those severely injured are to go and recuperate first.”
The Blood Shadow Demon Liege turned into countless blood shadows to stall the spirit.
Among them, only the Blood Shadow Demon Liege could hold back the spirit. As for the rest of the supporters, they were slightly inferior to the Blood Shadow Demon Liege even if they worked together.
After hearing the order, the severely injured members quickly found a corner. They sat down and took out a red gemstone to start recuperating.
Each life gemstone was worth at least 50,000 peak-grade spirit stones. Any severe injuries could be recovered quickly as long as the soul didn’t scatter.
…
“Extinguish!”
The Joint-Heaven Sword burst out with sword radiance and Li Fuchen completely dispersed the spirit’s illusory body, making it unable to condense again.
“I will go and harvest the Flower of Spirit.”
Once the spirit perished, the Flower of Spirit stopped spinning. Gulisha flew over and started to harvest the Flower of Spirit.
“I wonder how much wealth is contained in this spatial ring.”
With a wave of the hand, the spatial ring landed in Li Fuchen’s hand. He opened it up and took a look inside. His eyes couldn’t help lighting up. “Good guy, there are so many peak-grade spirit stones.”
Li Fuchen didn’t know how much the resources inside the spatial ring was worth, but there were already 150,000 peak-grade spirit stones inside.
“Night Devil Saint Lord, how much do you think the things inside are worth?” Li Fuchen handed the spatial ring to the Night Devil Saint Lord.
“Haha, we are rich. After we get out, we will each earn at least 100,000 peak-grade spirit stones.” The Gray Stone Saint Lord laughed heartily.
The Night Devil Saint Lord opened it after receiving it. He couldn’t help smiling as he said, “This trip to the Ancient Stone City is truly lucky. The wealth inside this spatial ring is worth at least 300,000 peak-grade spirit stones.”
“I think it can be more than 150,000 peak-grade spirit stones.” The rest of the members were also laughing.
Wealth would more or less determine the strength of a saint lord.
After becoming a saint lord, it would be too long to rely on one’s natural cultivation speed. It would take at least a few ten or hundred thousand years. But it was different if one had enough wealth. If the pinnacle saint lord possessed a high-grade top rate apex defense cardinal artifact, the survivability would increase significantly. But with an extreme-grade top rate apex defense cardinal artifact, the survivability would increase by several times.
Of course, the price of a top rate apex cardinal artifact was too high. A high-grade top rate apex cardinal artifact would be worth a few hundred thousand peak-grade spirit stones. But an extreme-grade top rate apex cardinal artifact would be worth at least 1 million peak-grade spirit stones. It wasn’t something that average saint lords could afford.
The Night Devil Team members each had wealth that was more than 1 million peak-grade spirit stones. But for them to spend a few hundred thousand peak-grade spirit stones to purchase one high-grade top rate apex defense cardinal artifact would still be a pinch to them. But if they could earn more peak-grade spirit stones, it wouldn’t be as heartaching.
Back then, the Iron Cloud Saint Lord obtained the high-grade top rate apex cardinal artifact, Flame Essence Wheel in a dangerous place.
As for Li Fuchen, apart from the Joint-Heaven Sword, the horn of a hell sovereign, and a sapling which was suspected to be part of the Tree of Life, and the great desolate earth energy crystals, Li Fuchen’s wealth wasn’t significant. He was just wealthier than regular saint lords. As compared to the members of the Night Devil Team, he was far inferior. Therefore, this trip to the Ancient Stone City was definitely a chance for his wealth to increase by several times.
Shortly after, Gulisha harvested the Flower of Spirit.
At this moment, the Night Devil Saint Lord said, “We are able to obtain the Flower of Spirit and defeat the saint lord-class spirit all because of the Sword Saint Lord. I hope everyone can make an oath to never divulge that the Sword Saint Lord possesses a supreme rate weapon.”
“The Night Devil Saint Lord is right. No one is to divulge that the Sword Saint Lord possesses a supreme rate weapon. I will make the oath first.”
The Stone Ax Saint Lord and the Hollow Shade Saint Lord were the first two to make the oath.
Seeing the situation, the rest of the members had also swore their oath.
A supreme rate weapon was too attractive, even a heaven lord might want to seize it.
The Night Devil Saint Lord turned around and said to Li Fuchen, “Sword Saint Lord, don’t worry, if anyone divulges about the supreme rate weapon, they would receive a backlash from the oath, and I will be the first to hunt them down.”
Li Fuchen laughed and said, “I trust everyone.”
Since Li Fuchen dared to show the Joint-Heaven Sword, he was already prepared to be exposed.
He believed that he wasn’t so unlucky to attract a heaven lord.
