Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation - Chapter 667

Chapter 667: Unexpected Treasure

Xiao Chen let out a soft huff of surprise. He said, "There is consumption with Immortal Spirit Rings?"

The owner stroked his beard and smiled. "Naturally. Otherwise, where would the energy to form a small realm come from? Only the Immortal Spirit Ring from the Immortal Epoch can cycle their energies to some extent. All Immortal Spirit Rings now require Spirit Stones for maintenance."

Xiao Chen pondered and said, "Will Medial Grade Spirit Stones work?"

He still had several million Medial Grade Spirit Stones, not having anywhere to spend them. If he could use them for an Immortal Spirit Ring, he would not need to waste them.

"You can; the effects are the same. It is just a matter of how much energy."

After getting the answer he wanted, Xiao Chen performed a cupped-fist salute in gratitude and prepared to leave.

At this moment, the owner seemed to have recalled something and suddenly called out to stop Xiao Chen. "Little Brother, wait a moment. Actually, I have an Immortal Spirit Ring with me. In the past, there was an inner sect disciple with insufficient Spirit Stones. So he used it as payment instead. The energy in it has already drained away, but the space inside is still quite large, more than six thousand hectares."

Xiao Chen looked strangely at the owner. Then, he received the ring that the owner proffered. After looking at it, he injected his Spiritual Sense into it.

Xiao Chen only saw darkness inside. Aside from negligible spots of light, he could not see anything.

Black lines could not help but form on Xiao Chen's face. Although he had never seen an Immortal Spirit Ring before, this item was clearly defective; it would not fool him.

Wait for a while. Don't be in a rush to return it.

Ao Jiao's voice suddenly rang out in Xiao Chen's mind. He saw a figure flash in the pitch-dark space; Ao Jiao had appeared.

"This ring has a heavy aura of the Immortal Epoch. Toss in your Medial Grade Spirit Stones. Give it a try."

Not saying anything, Xiao Chen immediately dumped in a million Medial Grade Spirit Stones. Then, he saw rain falling in the pitch-black space. The rain had a faint radiance, looking very beautiful.

However, after the rain stopped, the pitch-black space did not change. Xiao Chen still could not see anything, only darkness.

"Continue."

After hearing Ao Jiao's instruction, Xiao Chen threw in two million more Medial Grade Spirit Stones. However, there was still no change.

"Continue."

Xiao Chen added three million Medial Grade Spirit Stones this time. The rain of light fell again but still…nothing.

"Continue."

Xiao Chen now felt a little conflicted. Although the Medial Grade Spirit Stones were not very useful in the Kunlun Realm, they were not things that should simply be discarded. They could be used to refine Spirit Gathering Pearls. If he was willing to suffer some loss, he could exchange them for Superior Grade Spirit Stones.

However, Ao Jiao insisted they continue on and on; soon he was about to run out of Medial Grade Spirit Stones. Even so, he had not gained anything. He felt very wronged.

Ao Jiao said quickly, "Be quick. Just toss in another two million Medial Grade Spirit Stones. If you are any slower, the previous Spirit Stones will be wasted."

Feeling helpless, Xiao Chen could only throw in the last of his Medial Grade Spirit Stones, adding them all.

"Drip…drip…!"

Spiritual rain fell again. At first, there was no change. Then, when he was about to give up hope, the pitch-dark space started to lighten up. Eventually, the darkness disappeared.

That original spot of light became a small sun, hanging high in the sky.

A realm formed within the world. There were mountains, rivers, and vast plains. There were all sorts of plants, all full of life. The space within was immense, at least sixty thousand hectares.

Ao Jiao giggled and said, "You silly fool, looks like you found a treasure. This is a bona fide Immortal Spirit Ring from the Immortal Epoch. I saw one in the past, when I adventured with Sang Mu. We had to toss in large amounts of Spirit Stones within a short period of time before we could open it."

Xiao Chen rejoiced in his heart, but his expression did not change. He did not say anything yet. Then, his expression soured and threw the ring back to the owner, turning away after he did so.
