Nationwide Development: Spend Billions in Advance to Bind the Empress

Chapter 122 The Eternal Emperor's Treasure! 12 Spirit Stones in Hand!

"What a coincidence, everyone's here." Shen Yun looked at everyone with an inscrutable tone.

Just as he expected.

Most of these people's game characters are hunting down Luo Hongxi!

'Damn it, what am I going to do!' Ye Quan's heart skipped a beat.

Zhang Wen's face darkened. They were sworn enemies with Shen Yun, and now that they were meeting again, the odds were against them.

'We absolutely cannot let him obtain the Divine Dao Flower!' Zhang Wenxin hardened his heart, raised his hand, and roared as he slammed it towards the Dao Flower:

"Fight him to the death!!"

But then he found himself unable to move, completely bound to the spot!

Suddenly, Shen Yun's white fox mount appeared before him, curiously examining the divine Dao Flower:

"If I bind you, you can forget about committing suicide. Tell me what this is; it will make your suffering less."

"Hmph, don't even think about it!" Zhang Wen snorted, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw a faint blue sword light flash past in the cave.

Puff puff puff~!!

Ye Quan and the others were beheaded on the spot. Their eyes were bloodshot, their faces filled with incomprehension, anger and hatred as they stared speechlessly at Shen Yun!

Because even in death, some people didn't understand why Shen Yun, who had no grudge against them, would kill them directly.

Shen Yun remained unmoved by the dying glances in these people's eyes. Anyone who dared to collude with the Evil Soul Hall deserved to die, let alone those who had provoked him.

"Shen Yun, don't even think about finding out anything from me! I won't tell you!" Zhang Wen sneered at Shen Yun.

I am indeed not as strong as him.

But if the other party wants to know the effects of the Divine Dao Flower, dream on!

Shen Yun didn't say anything more, and directly swept his sword across his neck.

A magnificent head soared into the sky!

However, Zhang Wen's face showed no fear of death.

"Heh~...heh..." His head rolled to the ground as he forced a strange smile, a mocking one on his face as he looked at Shen Yun.

But then his expression froze.

Shen Yun then took out a crystal skull, activated it, and said with a smile:

"I admire people with backbone. I hope you can maintain that once you join the Soul Devouring Banner."

'Soul-Eating Banner? ! 'Zhang Wen was shocked!

This guy is actually a heretical cultivator?!

Once one enters the Soul-Devouring Banner, one's soul will be subject to the torment of soul refining indefinitely.

When their soul is scattered, they won't even have the chance to be reincarnated!

When Zhang Wen's soul was ripped from his body by the skull, he was no longer calm; instead, he screamed in terror:

"I'll talk! I'll talk!!!"

"The Divine Dao Flower was condensed by the Eternal Emperor using the power of the faith of all living beings! It's used to strengthen one's own divinity and to solidify one's immortality for ascension!" He dared not conceal anything and blurted it out:

"These kinds of divine objects are not very effective for ordinary cultivators who lack the necessary aptitude. However, those who possess imperial blood will experience extraordinary effects upon consuming them! They are divine objects that the Eternal Emperor prepared specifically for himself!!"

The immense pulling force of the skull terrified Zhang Wen, and his screams became choked with sobs:

"Shen Yun, I've already told you! Please let me go!!"

This is about reincarnation; what's the point of staying alive if the person is already dead?

Seeing that his expression didn't seem fake, Shen Yun continued to ask:

Tell me where the Evil Soul Palace is.

Floating in the air, Zhang Wen shook his head repeatedly: "Our souls have been sealed. If this is revealed, our souls will be scattered."

Seeing that he couldn't get any useful information, Shen Yun waved his hand to disperse the soul, then activated the skull to begin absorbing the souls from the corpses on the ground, as if preparing nourishment for the Soul-Devouring Banner.

He ignored the screams of Ye Quan and the others, and instead unleashed his Swift Swan Arrow towards the divine Dao Flower within the spirit stone mine, slicing through the surrounding spirit stones and grabbing them with a wave of his hand:

"Xian'er, you can maximize the effect of this divine plant by using it yourself."

Bai Xian'er possesses the bloodline of the ancient imperial beast, the Heavenly Demon Nine-Tailed Fox, so the divine Dao Flower she consumed must have had an amazing effect.

"Brother Yun, Xian'er doesn't need to." Bai Xian'er jumped onto his shoulder and affectionately rubbed her cheek against his.

"Why don't you keep it and use it to improve your qualifications?"

"Don't be put off! This thing looks wilted, and its effects are definitely not as potent as they were at their peak, but this kind of treasure is unique and extremely rare!" Shen Yun's attitude left no room for refusal:

"It's too wasteful for me to use it, it's settled then!"

Bai Xian'er also needs to grow; he doesn't want her to stop at the Great Emperor level.

If given the chance to become an immortal, Shen Yun would not hesitate to enhance her abilities.

Moreover, he would benefit from Xian'er's growth and strength, so there's no need for him to waste this divine object.

"Thank you, Brother Yun." Seeing that his mind was made up, Bai Xian'er stopped trying to persuade him.

She's made up her mind about him for life, so she'll just have to obediently listen to whatever he says.

Seeing that there was still a restrictive halo on the Divine Dao Flower, Shen Yun thought for a moment and then directly activated the Annihilation Battle Body, urging the Source of Annihilation to envelop the restriction.

The Heaven-Burning Flames might be effective, but the Eternal Emperor gave him a very sinister feeling!

Its methods are probably no less powerful than those of the Qilin Emperor Beast.

Therefore, he trusts the Annihilation Battle Body, a VIP reward, more!

He was not disappointed. When the Source of Annihilation touched the halo, it dissolved and disappeared without resistance.

'Let's see if there are any hidden tricks left by the other party...' Out of caution, Shen Yun controlled the Source of Annihilation and probed into the Divine Dao Flower.

He did not activate the destructive power of the Source of Annihilation at this moment, otherwise this thing would have been destroyed in an instant.

Fortunately, there were no restrictions or hidden tricks inside, which put him at ease.

"Xian'er, after you consume it, I will leave a trace of primordial power within your body." Shen Yun stood up and looked at Bai Xian'er:

"I will use it to protect the energy of the divine Dao Flower within your body. If any of the Eternal Emperor's hidden forces leak out of the energy, I will eliminate them immediately!"

The emperor's methods are unpredictable, so it's never too much to be cautious.

"Don't worry, Brother Yun," Bai Xian'er explained softly.

"When our clan consumes rare and precious herbs, any harmful substances will be absorbed by the dimensional space within the body, and even the dark hand set up by the Great Emperor can be removed."

"This is possible?!" Shen Yun exclaimed in surprise, patting her head.

With this double insurance, it's much safer!

After storing the divine Dao flower in his beast-taming space, Shen Yun began to observe the narrow spirit stone mine:

"I wonder how many spirit stones I'll get..."

As one's cultivation level increases, the spiritual energy consumed in breaking through realms also increases exponentially. The only way to improve quickly is to accumulate more spirit stones.

Right now, he might be able to make a fortune!

With a startled flight, it swiftly began cutting through the spirit stones on the wall.

However, the efficiency depends on Bai Xian'er. She raised her pink paws and used her supernatural power, Void Strangulation Net, to harvest spirit stones.

Large amounts of spirit stones fell from the wall and were collected into Shen Yun's spatial storage.

In less than ten minutes, he had taken all the spirit stone from the vein, leaving only a dull gray wall, without even a single spirit stone that radiated light.

"Haha, more than 123,000!!" Shen Yun tossed the spirit stones in his hand with a broad smile.

This large sum of money will last him for a long time!

However, the spiritual veins of Blue Star are not like those of the cultivation world; there are less than two thousand mid-grade spirit stones and not a single high-grade spirit stone.

'It's also possible that the restrictions maintaining the divine Dao Flower have been depleted. We're already quite fortunate to have this much…' Shen Yun didn't linger any longer, riding Bai Xian'er and disappearing into the mine…
