Chapter 392: Dong Clan's Generous Reward

Xiang Shaoyun left immediately, not giving the Dong Clan a chance to persuade him to stay, not even Dong Ziwan . Dong Qinggu offered to send them off with their teleportation portal, but even that was rejected .

Xiang Shaoyun did not wish to waste any time . His plan was to travel to the Bloodsin City and train on the way there . Only then would he have the ability to establish a footing for himself when he was finally at the Bloodsin City . As for Tai Kang, the King under his control, Xiang Shaoyun had left him behind .  

When Dong Ziwan heard about their departure, she cried bitterly .

"Why are you so cruel?" weeped Dong Ziwan as she gazed at Xiang Shaoyun’s departing back in the distant horizon . She considered leaving without saying goodbye as the cruelest thing he could do to her and reached a conclusion that he never saw her as anything more than just a good friend .

Dong Qinggu patted her shoulder and comforted her . "He is not being cruel . Otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered to help us solve our crisis . Perhaps he really has something he needs to do and does not wish for you to be his burden . He is in a sense a character with both ambition and ruthlessness . "

"I am already a Skysoar Realm cultivator . How will I be his burden?" Dong Ziwan questioned indignantly .

"Didn't you see how only Emperors are by his side? In other words, one has to at least be an Emperor to be of help to him . If you want to be with him one day, listen to your father . Start working hard in cultivation from now on . Only by possessing enough strength will you be able to prevent him from leaving without saying goodbye like this," Dong Qinggu said .

At that, the tears vanished from Dong Ziwan's eyes, replaced by a bright look of realization . She said, "Ok . From now onward, I will work even harder to become an Empress one day . No, I will become a Sovereign . I will ensure he can't escape me anymore!" She then bowed to Dong Qinggu and said, "Great-grandfather, I beg you to open the clan's forbidden zone for me . I wish to enter . "

"What? You want to enter the forbidden zone? Do you even know how bad it is in there?" Dong Qinggu asked in shock .

"I know, but that is the only place that can increase my cultivation speed . I wish to give it a try," Dong Ziwan said resolutely .

"A lot of geniuses from our clan have perished there in the past . Otherwise, our clan wouldn't have stagnated all these years . If it wasn't for the records of the ancestors stating that the forbidden zone is linked to our clan through fate, we would have destroyed that place long ago . I will give you three days to think it through . If you still want to enter after three days, I will allow it," said Dong Qinggu . Fear could be seen in his eyes at his thought of the forbidden zone .

Once again, Dong Ziwan replied resolutely, "No, I don't need that . I will go right now . I'm afraid I will lose the courage if I wait . Even if I end up dying, I won't regret it . "

Dong Qinggu gave her one long look before sighing, "Fine . Since you have decided, I will allow you entry . I hope you will become the Dong Clan's miracle . "

. . .

Xiang Shaoyun was naturally unaware of the decision Dong Ziwan had made . Presently, he was seated on Jin Wo's back, constantly absorbing the spiritual energy around him . Even when flying high up in the sky, a certain degree of astral energy concentration could be found .

With the star congregation jade on him, he could increase his energy absorption rate by three times . He was trying to replenish the astral energies in his stars so as to create more nine-colored fog . He had a feeling the nine-colored fog would become his trump card . Thus, he had to take it seriously .

After one day, Xiang Shaoyun finally filled his six stars with energy . In fact, the stars had also grown somewhat . He then started transforming the different energies into the nine-colored fog . Once again, he formed some nine-colored fog, but he was only able to form a thin layer of it before he was drained of energy .

"Maybe I can try cultivating some spiritual plants and see if that will help," Xiang Shaoyun muttered as he placed some soil in his astral cosmos sea before planting some spiritual herbs . He soon found that after the spiritual herbs absorbed the nine-colored fog, they became brimming with vitality, looking much more lively and lustrous .

"I'll check back again after some time . Hopefully there will be a nice surprise waiting for me," muttered Xiang Shaoyun expectantly .

Finally, he had some free time to look at the storage ring he had received from Dong Qinggu . He was stunned when he saw the contents of the ring . Within were three more storage rings . He understood that his actual reward would be in the additional rings .

He impatiently sent his senses into the first ring and found that this was a ring with a space of 100 square meters . It was completely filled with mid-grade spirit crystals . Each square meter could store 500 mid-grade spirit crystals . In other words, after taking into consideration the height as well, there were about five million mid-grade spirit crystals . This was a very generous reward .

In fact, there were more spirit crystals here then what Xiang Shaoyun had found at the Land of Soul Springs .

"Worthy of being a tier-5 organization . They are decently generous," said Xiang Shaoyun in satisfaction .

Along with his growth in strength and the increase of his followers, he needed more and more spirit crystals to support their expenditures . Without spirit crystals, it would be hard for him to do what he wanted . Thus, he was happy to receive such a large sum .  

He then checked the second ring .

It only had a storage space of 50 square meters, but it was completely filled with herbs with grades no lower than spirit medicine . The value of these herbs far surpassed the value of the spirit crystals in the first ring .

"Low-grade king medicine, bloodhorn vine, capable of quickly restoring blood .

"Mid-grade king medicine, seven-leaf pointed grass, capable of increasing the gold energy a cultivator had and improving the cultivator's combat prowess .

"Mid-grade king medicine icesnow fruit, capable of greatly increasing one's power of frost, allowing one to grow quickly .

"Emperor medicine time return grass, capable of removing any astral energy in one's body, allowing one to cultivate a new element from scratch . "

. . .

Xiang Shaoyun's gaze was completely locked on the herbs . The more he looked at them, the more joyful he became . Apart from the over 1,000 stalks of different spirit medicines, there were also about 300 stalks of king medicines of differing grades and dozens of low-grade emperor medicines .

Every king medicine was incredibly precious and rare . As for emperor medicines, they were even harder to find . In fact, one could only find emperor medicines in spiritual lands . Since the Dong Clan was being so generous, it was clear they had also obtained quite a lot of wealth from sacking the Tai and Xing Clans . On top of that, they were probably sincere in wanting to form a relationship with him .

After all, a single stalk of emperor medicine was equivalent in value to at least 100,000 mid-grade spirit crystals . Just 10 stalks of the emperor medicines here was already almost equivalent to the value of everything in the first ring .

Xiang Shaoyun suppressed his excitement and checked the third ring . There were numerous items, including weapons, weapon refining materials, demonic beast materials, and so on .

Xiang Shaoyun's gaze was attracted to an object that looked like a chunk of flesh . He took it out of the ring, trying to figure out what it was . The moment he took it out, Devouring Ghost cried out in alarm, "Blood demon race's blood egg!"
