337: Chapter 337 Unbelievable Wealth!
The dragon's maw gaped wide, three streams of demonic breath rapidly intertwined, tangled, and fused in the air!
Finally, it transformed into a torrential flood of dark demonic breath!
"Azure Lotus... Incinerate the World!!!"
Feng Jin felt the shadow of death completely envelop him!
He pushed all his remaining power, along with the might of his spirit weapon, to the absolute limit!
A blue-red flame lotus abruptly bloomed before him, spinning as it met that terrifying flood of demonic breath!
However—
"Hiss—!!!"
The flood of dark demonic breath easily pierced through the flame lotus's defense!
The lotus rapidly melted and disintegrated!
"Aaaahhh—!!!"
Feng Jin let out a shrill, agonized scream.
The dark demonic breath washed over his body.
Skin, muscle, bone... everything rapidly corroded, disintegrated, and vanished!
In just one breath.
The scream was abruptly cut off.
On the spot, only a small handful of black ashes remained, scattered by the wind.
Thus, that once arrogant and unrivaled True King Descendant of the Phoenix Descendant Clan, who had stirred up a storm of blood in the Northern World—Feng Jin—was completely gone.
Only the residual waves of violent energy, and the faint, lingering scent of scorching heat mixed with demonic energy in the air, proved the brief yet terrifying duel that had just taken place.
On the spot, only four items remained, lying quietly on the rocky ground, shimmering with faint glows of different hues under the dim light.
Thus, a peerless genius, the True King Descendant Feng Jin, regrettably exited the stage!
"Rustle, rustle, rustle..."
Little Black waved its branches, and the three demonic energy dragons in the air slowly dissipated.
"Well done, Little Black." Qin Yan did not stint on praise, reaching out to stroke its cool trunk.
Hearing this, Little Black immediately began to dance its branches even more joyfully, like a child who had just received a compliment.
Qin Yan smiled, said no more, and strode over to where Feng Jin had fallen.
Coming before the four items, his gaze swept over them, instantly recognizing them.
From left to right, they were: a purification ring, a Storage Ring, a portion of Profound Truth, and a pair of gauntlet spirit weapons.
Qin Yan first picked up the purification ring.
With a slight thought, the jade ring on his own wrist flashed, beginning to absorb the points stored within.
*Hum—!*
The numbers on the jade ring began to jump wildly!
Finally, they settled on a number that even Qin Yan found somewhat surprising—
【119120】!
Nearly one hundred and twenty thousand points!
"This Feng Jin... it seems he truly hunted and plundered many other geniuses during this time! To have accumulated so many points!"
Qin Yan sighed inwardly.
No wonder the Northern World had been in such a state of alarm these past days, with geniuses from every clan turning pale at the mention of 'Feng'.
This guy had truly gone on a killing spree.
But now, all these points belonged to him.
One hundred and twenty thousand points—this number would definitely rank in the top five, perhaps even... the top three, of this Hidden Dragon Assembly.
However, now these points, along with Feng Jin's 'hard-earned gains', had conveniently fallen into his, Qin Yan's, lap.
Qin Yan then turned his gaze to that portion of Palm Dao Profundity.
He was not surprised that Feng Jin possessed Profound Truth.
The Martial Arts Pavilion was a place where one could obtain Profound Truth; his own one-ten-thousandth portion of Spear Dao Profundity had been obtained from the Spear Technique trial.
Given Feng Jin's strength and status, it was perfectly normal for him to have obtained a portion of Profound Truth.
He reached out and touched the faint golden Profound Truth light sphere.
As if sentient, the light sphere instantly transformed into a stream of light and shot into the center of his brow.
*Hum!*
Qin Yan felt a wave of cool clarity in his mind as countless insights regarding the martial form of the 'palm' flooded into the depths of his consciousness.
His understanding of 'palm techniques' instantly elevated from that of a complete outsider to the level of a talented beginner!
"As expected, also a one-ten-thousandth portion."
After carefully savoring it, Qin Yan confirmed the 'weight' of this Palm Dao Profundity.
Although the portion was small, the value of Profound Truth itself was immeasurable!
It could elevate a martial artist's comprehension and potential ceiling in the corresponding field.
A one-ten-thousandth portion of Palm Dao Profundity was enough to ensure that if he ever wished to practice palm techniques in the future, he would achieve twice the result with half the effort, starting far above ordinary people.
Although his main focus would still be on the Spear Dao, having an extra portion of Profound Truth was always a good thing.
Next, Qin Yan picked up that ornately crafted Storage Ring.
As a True King Descendant of the Phoenix Descendants and a top predator of this Hidden Dragon Assembly, Qin Yan held great expectations for Feng Jin's wealth...
His consciousness sank into it.
The next moment, Qin Yan's breathing... hitched slightly.
The space inside the ring was even larger than he had anticipated, roughly ten meters in length, width, and height each, totaling one thousand cubic meters!
And at this moment, this vast space was almost completely packed full!
The first thing that entered his 'sight' were densely packed, hill-like mounds of various colored jade bottles and pill boxes!
With a quick scan, Qin Yan saw that the vast majority were third-grade pills, of many varieties—healing, qi-replenishing, Blood Refining, detoxifying, and so on—all seeming to be of quite good quality.
Among them were even a few bottles emitting fourth-grade fluctuations, even more precious.
"Truly dripping with wealth..." Qin Yan thought to himself.
His gaze shifted to another side of the space.
There, jade containers were neatly arranged, holding various kinds of spiritual herbs!
Although Qin Yan was not yet a master alchemist, he could still recognize some spiritual herbs.
With one sweep of his eyes, he spotted many treasures that made his heart race:
Fourth-grade spiritual herbs: Crimson Flame Vermilion Fruit, Icy Root, Phoenix Blood Vine... quite a number, over forty stalks.
Fifth-grade spiritual herbs: Dragon Vein Flame Ginseng, Nine-leaf Wind Ganoderma, Heavenly Pool Heart Grass... seven or eight stalks, emitting even more majestic energy fluctuations, their value astonishing.
Sixth-grade spiritual herbs: Qin Yan even saw two!
One was a flower entirely crimson-gold, like a miniature phoenix spreading its wings; the other was an 'Earthfire Spirit Pith Root' rooted in a piece of blazing crystal!
These two spiritual herbs, if placed in the outside world, would be enough to tempt even sixth or seventh-grade experts!
What shocked Qin Yan the most was a small, palm-sized, peculiar little plant lying quietly in a cold jade box in a corner of the space. It was crystal clear like red jade, with what seemed like flowing liquid fire inside!
"This... this is probably a seventh-grade spiritual herb!"
Qin Yan didn't recognize the name of this herb, but he could feel that even its faintly emitted aura caused the blood energy within his body to stir restlessly!
"Just how many geniuses did this Feng Jin plunder, how many perilous places did he explore, to amass such an astounding fortune?!"
Qin Yan was utterly shaken in his heart.
This harvest far exceeded his expectations!
With these resources, he would not have to worry about pills and auxiliary spiritual herbs for a very long time on his future martial path!
"But unfortunately, now... it all belongs to me, Qin Yan!"
A gratified smile curled at the corner of Qin Yan's mouth as he unceremoniously claimed this heaven-sent fortune for himself.
