Dragon War God

Chapter 95 - Treasure Pavilion

There were nine Treasure Pavilions in Lingwu City, distributed among the nine outer families of the Lingwu family. The Treasure Pavilion located in the Turquoise District was not far from the Turquoise Sun Hall.

Even though the Lingwu family had a lot of people, Lingwu City was more than large enough to accommodate everyone. It was still early in the morning, so there wasn’t a crowd while Long Chen walked through the streets.

There were various experts in the Lingwu family, and the competition in the Turquoise Willow Residence was very intense, much less the outside.

Long Chen kept such a low profile that someone mistook him for a Draconic Realm cultivator.

The closer he got to the Treasure Pavilion, the more people he came across. There were even some youths stronger than him there.

Cultivators at the Human Core Realm were abundant in the Turquoise family, but those at the Earthly Core Realm were scarce. As for the Heavenly Core Realm, Long Chen had never seen one. The strongest person he had encountered was Liu Lan.

The Treasure Pavilion had three floors. It was much larger than the Dawn Trading Alliance located in the Eastern Ling District.

Long Chen knew he could not go to the upper two floors with his current strength.

But there were plenty of things on the first floor, and most of them were suitable for him.

Long Chen strolled through the Treasure Pavilion, passing by rows and rows of artifacts before reaching the spiritual herb section.

Even the herbs were categorized here, but they didn’t specifically separate herbs that could nourish the divine soul. Long Chen had to rummage through the “others” section before he gave up and asked the clerk. Even then, he only managed to find a single Soul Nourishing Fruit.

He checked the price and was relieved to find out it was only worth nine contribution points.

After completing the transaction and placing the fruit in his Universe Pouch, Long Chen asked the clerk, “Do you have any other herbs just like the Soul Nourishing Fruit?”

“The Treasure Pavilion only keeps one just in case. Since you’ve bought it, it will take around three days before we have another one.”

Long Chen nodded. I have to wait until then. The Soul Nourishing Fruit is worth a hundred divine jades on the outside, but it only costs nine contribution points here. Does this mean that I earned roughly three hundred divine jades just from a single mission? That can’t be right. I’m a new person and I merely assisted in the completion of a third-grade mission. Maybe Liu Lan gave me some extra?

While Long Chen was thinking about it, Ling Xi was drowning in happiness on obtaining yet another Soul Nourishing Fruit. She was touched when she learned that Long Chen was planning to spend all thirty of his points on Soul Nourishing Fruits. “Hey, I’m fine with just one. Go and get something for yourself. Let me see if there’s anything good for you here!”

“No need. I don’t need anything, but these herbs are needed to save your life. I want to get more of them ...”

“No! You’ve already given me enough. Let me help you find something good here. My eyes are very keen!”

Long Chen sighed and relented. He wandered around the place while Ling Xi scoured through everything to see if there was anything good.

“Looks like your nose is working as well as a dog’s. Haha ...”

“Bastard, are you going to repay my kindness by teasing me? I’m doing this for you ...”

She suddenly stopped and got very excited. “Hey, do you see that thing over there called the Recovery Fruit?”

“Wait, you found something good?”

Long Chen was surprised and followed Ling Xi’s direction. There was indeed a black fruit roughly the size of a fist there. It was tightly wrapped and there was nothing special about it.

Recovery Fruit, intermediate Black-tier spiritual herb. Primary usage: recovery. Effective on those at the initial Earthly Core Realm. Price: twenty contribution points ...

Long Chen read the description and understood how to use the fruit, but he was confused. “Xiao Xi, intermediate Black-tier healing-based spiritual herbs are everywhere in the Treasure Pavilion. The Recovery Fruit’s effect is not even that great. Other intermediate Black-tier spiritual herbs with better recovery effects are priced at least fifty contributions points and above ...”

“That’s because you are ignorant and don’t know its true effect! Listen to me and buy this immediately, or we might not be able to get it again!”

“But I only have twenty-one points left ...”

“Hmph! I won’t help you again!”

Long Chen sighed and used twenty points to purchase the insignificant Recovery Fruit.

The clerk was confused when he saw a cultivator below the Earthly Core Realm purchasing the fruit. “If you are using it yourself, we can introduce you to some elementary Black-tier recovery-type spiritual herbs, such as the Huiling Grass. You could get a bunch of them with just one point.”

Long Chen declined his offer.

The clerk rolled his eyes and ignored Long Chen afterward.

Long Chen was miffed about it.

“Xiao Xi, if this turns out to be a waste of points, I will give you a good smack when we return!”

“Fine, you ignorant bastard. You can’t even discover its true effect without me! The Recovery Fruit should not be used to heal wounds, but it was sold as such. It’s hilarious!”

Ling Xi knew that she was right and wanted to prove Long Chen wrong, so she quickly asked him to go back home.

She’s acting so mysterious, but I benefit greatly every time she does this. I should trust her this time.

Even though he was still muttering about it, he trusted Ling Xi. Since he had used up all his points, there was no reason for him to be here anymore. He quickly headed back since he was curious about how to use the fruit too.

It was already past morning, so there were many people at the Treasure Pavilion. Long Chen blended into the crowd.

The Lingwu family is so strict with the hierarchy that even the Treasure Pavilion is separated into three floors. I can only access the first floor due to my strength, but they already had so many elementary and intermediate Black-tier items. There should be many treasures on the second and third floors. I wonder when I will be allowed to go up there ...

While Long Chen was trying to exit the Treasure Pavilion, he felt a penetrating gaze fixated on him. He raised his head and saw that it was none other than Feng Wutian at the entrance.

Staring at the youth in front of him, Long Chen recalled what Liu Lan had told him yesterday. As expected, killing intent spilled forth from Feng Wutian’s eyes.

Feng Wutian was wearing an orange and white robe. He looked like a noble, though his eyes were a pale shade of orange. Long Chen was not bad-looking either, but that was the only thing had in common with Feng Wutian.

“Senior Wutian, the Wind Spirit Leaf is over there. Let me show you ...”

Beside Feng Wutian was a girl wearing a pale, red dress. She was very pretty, with cherry-like lips and a slim waist. Her tall body attracted the stares of all the boys, and her sweet voice made everyone feel good.

Long Chen thought that if she were older, she would be as good-looking as Liu Lan. Wait a minute, she does resemble Liu Lan.

“Senior Wutian?”

When the girl saw Feng Wutian suddenly stop, she looked in the direction he was starting. She was confused when she saw Long Chen, a normal cultivator of the outer family.

“Senior Wutian, why are you staring at him?”

Feng Wutian ignored her and continued to stare icily at Long Chen.

Seeing Long Chen take Feng Wutian’s attention away from her made her angry, so she soon stared at Long Chen coldly too.

Feng Wutian approached him and stopped two meters away. Everyone surrounding them was frightened and discovered that they had a grudge. They circled and started gossiping.

“Isn’t that Feng Wutian from the Turquoise Sun Hall? Why is he bothering with that normal-looking person?”

“How should I know?”

Feng Wutian was still staring at the fearless Long Chen.

Long Chen felt his killing intent. I knew it, the pressure from a peak Human Core Realm cultivator is no joke. Long Chen had the strength to kill Huang Feiyang, who was at the mid Human Core Realm, but there was nothing he could do against Feng Wutian.

“So you are Long Chen?” Feng Wutian asked plainly.

The girl beside him had not heard of Long Chen, but she knew Feng Wutian hated him. “Hey, brat, Senior Wutian is talking to you. Reply immediately, or you will suffer the consequences!”

Having said that, she pouted at Feng Wutian, expecting some praise from him. Unfortunately, Feng Wutian ignored her. She was furious at this but directed her anger towards Long Chen. Her eyes were glinting with killing intent.

A cultivator in the Turquoise Sun Hall suddenly remembered what had happened when he heard Long Chen’s name. “I remember him now! Isn’t Long Chen one of the newest members of the Turquoise Sun Hall? He had the highest potential as a newcomer. I heard he joined Huang Feiyang and Wen Ya on a mission a couple of days back. When they returned, Huang Feiyang had gone missing. Maybe the reason why Feng Wutian is targeting Long Chen is because he is related to the disappearance of Huang Feiyang?”

“It could be! I heard Long Chen was the one who hurt Huang Feiyang’s brother!’

Another cultivator of the Turquoise Sun Hall joined in on the gossip, and soon, rumors spread around the onlookers. Everyone now knew who Long Chen was.

“But he was only at the Eighth Draconic Stage when he first entered. How could he defeat a cultivator at the mid Human Core Realm? It must be a hoax.”

“Then why is Feng Wutian targeting him?”

“Let’s just wait and see ...”
