82: Sit back and reap the benefits

“An exclusive item from Seven Stars Holy Land?”

Xiao Shi looked at the item in his hand with surprise.

It was a transparent, faint soul body, floating lightly on his palm, completely weightless.

He had never expected that after killing a Qi Martial Realm practitioner here, he would actually drop an exclusive item from this place!

This had never happened before.

And judging from the description and notes of this exclusive item, its effect was extremely powerful!

Although it could only launch one attack, that single attack was capable of killing a Qi Warrior Realm Great Perfection!

For Xiao Shi, this was undoubtedly a great weapon!

The only drawback was that it could only be used within the Seven Stars Holy Land.

Once outside the Seven Stars Holy Land, the item would become ineffective.

“If that’s the case, exclusive items should all be limited to use only in a specific location; once they leave that place, the item will disappear.”

“There should be more than one such item!”

Xiao Shi pondered this thoughtfully.

He couldn't be sure now if continuing to kill would still drop exclusive items.

He needed to try it to get an answer.

Additionally, he couldn't help but wonder if such exclusive items would appear naturally within the Seven Stars Holy Land.

Although Sect Master Guo Chengdao hadn't mentioned any exclusive items in the Seven Stars Holy Land...

But since they existed, there was certainly a possibility that others could find them!

A conjecture arose in Xiao Shi’s mind.

These exclusive items might be extremely difficult to find within the Seven Stars Holy Land, and perhaps most people who came here couldn't find them.

“I remember Cen Qingci once said that the Flying Origin Palace was able to rise and become the strongest force in Seven Stars Province because they had a major harvest within the Seven Stars Holy Land…”

“Was it because they found exclusive items within the Seven Stars Holy Land at that time?”

Xiao Shi mused thoughtfully.

Although exclusive items couldn't be taken out...

Having exclusive items would give one a great advantage in the Seven Stars Holy Land, making it easier to acquire the opportunities and fortunes there.

Xiao Shi felt it was necessary to verify this point.

He immediately chose to leave.

He continued to search for other Qi Martial Realm practitioners to see if killing them would still drop exclusive items.

As for the stream here... although it had the magical effect of speeding up the breaking of locks, it had no effect on Xiao Shi.

After all, what he pursued was for every Qi Vortex to be a Taiyin Qi Vortex.

Qi locks broken with the aid of the stream would only open into ordinary Qi Vortexes.

This was not what Xiao Shi wanted.

Whoosh!

He moved swiftly, leaving decisively.

He quickly traversed through the dense forest.

While searching for Qi Martial Realm practitioners, he also recovered the Taiyin Qi Strength he had previously consumed.

Fortunately, after the expansion of the Taiyin Qi Vortex...

Not only did the strength and quantity of the Qi Strength increase, but the recovery efficiency of the Qi Strength also more than doubled compared to a normal Qi Vortex.

Running all the way...

After traveling a certain distance...

He heard sounds of fighting in the distance.

Xiao Shi quietly approached, observing from the shadows.

He found two people engaged in a fierce battle.

What surprised him, however, was that both of them wore identical attire and used consistent moves, clearly belonging to the same faction.

“Even people from the same faction are fighting each other?”

Xiao Shi was startled.

But upon closer thought, this was normal.

Within the Seven Stars Holy Land, everything was centered on personal gain.

In the face of personal gain, everyone was an enemy!

Perhaps with the exception of their Red Tiger Sect, most factions would experience infighting among their own members.

Even members of their Red Tiger Sect... if faced with a great opportunity, might turn on their fellow disciples.

In such a place...

Trust was hard to come by.

Everyone came here to compete for the opportunities and fortunes.

Each one was a greedy and ferocious jackal.

It was precisely because of this that Xiao Shi felt no psychological burden in killing these people.

He knew very well that if he didn't kill them, they would come to kill him.

Here, there was no distinction between good and bad people.

Xiao Shi's only bottom line was not to kill people from his own sect.

Boom!

Under a huge roar...

The two combatants crossed paths.

A gruesome wound appeared on one person's chest, with blood continuously flowing from it.

The other person's arm was twisted and broken, and he was panting heavily.

Through their exchange...

Xiao Shi discovered that both of them were very powerful, likely having opened as many as ten Qi Vortexes!

Facing Qi Martial Realm practitioners of such strength... without using exclusive items, Xiao Shi was not absolutely confident in defeating them.

Especially two of them.

He decided to continue observing from the shadows, waiting for both of them to be severely injured before reaping the benefits.

Soon...

As the two continued to fight...

Their injuries grew heavier and heavier.

And the outcome was about to be decided.

“It’s time!”

Xiao Shi's eyes flashed.

His figure instantly darted out from the darkness, locking onto the person who was about to win, preparing to kill this person first... At the same time...

As all the major forces in Seven Stars Province entered the Seven Stars Holy Land...

In a wilderness area of Seven Stars Province...

“Operation, commence!”

With the command from the Black Robed Man of the Heretical Organization...

Numerous members of the Heretical Organization immediately began their operation.

Since arriving in Seven Stars Province three years ago, they had only engaged in minor skirmishes.

But this time... they would launch a major operation!

With all the forces in Seven Stars Province currently inside the Seven Stars Holy Land, no one could stop them.

These two months... would be enough for them to complete their operational plan!

“Those forces in Seven Stars Province all think we will enter the Seven Stars Holy Land... Little do they know, our target has always been Seven Stars Province!”

The Black Robed Man in charge of this operation had a look of anticipation in his eyes.

He really wanted to know... what kind of expressions these people from Seven Stars Province would have when they emerged from the Seven Stars Holy Land and saw a “brand new” Seven Stars Province... Pfft!

A head flew high into the air.

It spun and tumbled down.

Xiao Shi's gaze turned to the other person.

With a swing of the long sword in his hand, facing the opponent's astonished expression...

Chii!

The deep black sword Qi directly pierced through the center of the eyebrows, killing him with a single strike.

His luck was good this time.

He had such an opportunity to reap the benefits.

Under normal circumstances, to kill these two Martial Warrior of the Entrance to Martial Realm who had opened ten Qi Vortexes, he would definitely have to use an exclusive item.

And using that exclusive item to kill two Martial Warrior of the Entrance to Martial Realm with ten Qi Vortexes was clearly not cost-effective.

Now, after killing both of them...

Xiao Shi's gaze quickly fell upon the items they dropped after death.

Next... it was time to verify whether his kills here would continue to drop exclusive items!
