Chapter 203 Two-star Half-level Reward [3172]
Jiang Ming was extremely calm. He took Yan Ruyu to take a bath in an underground spiritual spring a thousand miles away from the Holy City, and then they went to the Holy City together.
Today, the holy city is the gathering place of all the world's affairs.
Even the ancient dynasties of Zhongzhou, the ancient families of Beiyuan, and the descendants of the demon gods of Nanling were attracted to the East Wilderness.
Jiang Ming thought of the system prompt sound just now. Some people also died in the Jiang family. They were all from the head of the family, and there were more than a hundred people.
A powerful man died, and since he was considered half a family member, the system returned a default two-star and a half-level reward, allowing him to obtain thirty drops of dragon vein essence.
The essence of dragon veins is one of the best resources for practicing in the secret realm of dragon transformation. One drop of it is worth as much as a walnut.
Holy city!
An ancient city covering an area of 170,000 miles stands on this land. The city wall is a hundred meters high, which is nearly as high as a 25-story building. The city wall seems to be made of bronze. From a distance, it looks like a dragon lying on the ground, stretching endlessly. It has a simple and heavy feeling, which makes ordinary monks feel suffocated and oppressive.
In this way, even wild beasts and strange birds would know that it is too dangerous to pass by here and take a detour.
Jiang Ming and Yan Ruyu did not change their appearance, but swaggered into the holy city, unafraid of the spies and prying eyes of various forces.
"They are the descendants of the East Demon and the Green Emperor. When they walk together, they look like they walked out of a mural."
"It seems that they also want to watch the exciting duel at Daoyi Holy Land Gambling Stone Shop. Unfortunately, we are not qualified to enter."
"We just need to take a look at the talented people passing by, and that's it."
"—"
Jiang Ming also quickly found out where he was going from the conversations among the monks within a thousand miles around.
Xia Yiming, the prince of Da Xia in Zhongzhou, Jin Chixiao, the nobleman of the Golden Family in Beiyuan, and Yao Yuekong from the Demon King Palace in Nanling are preparing to gamble.
Everyone knows that the Stone Viewing Conference in the Holy Land of Yao Chi is about to begin. Many talented young people want to show their stone gambling skills and win the favor of the Fairy of Yao Chi.
However, there is still nearly half a year to go before the Yao Chi Stone Viewing Conference, has it already attracted so many young talents?
"Let's go directly to the gambling stone shop in Daoyi Holy Land. It's more lively there and there are good shows to watch."
Jiang Ming held Yan Ruyu's soft hand and walked straight towards the destination. Every step he took was like a streak of light and quickly disappeared on the spot.
When they arrived at the entrance of Daoyi Holy Land's gambling stone shop, a large number of cultivators had already gathered outside the door. However, when Jiang Ming and Yan Ruyu approached, these people immediately recognized them and consciously separated from them to make way for them.
"Thank you very much."
Jiang Ming thanked them and took Yan Ruyu to the gambling stone shop. The elder of Jiang Minghualong Secret Realm who was guarding the door immediately smiled and said, "Mr. Jiang, Princess Yan, please come in."
"Who will lead the way, fellow Taoists? What's the situation inside now?"
Jiang Ming smiled warmly and spoke in a gentle tone.
"I'll lead the way for you. The most prominent ones are the three bumpkins. However, I see that they have some skills. When it comes to source techniques, it's not as simple as just luck.
Both of you, please."
The old man who transformed into a dragon from the Daoyi Holy Land stroked his beard and said.
"That would be troublesome."
Jiang Ming said politely, then he and Yan Ruyu strode into the garden where the gambling stone shop was located.
Along the way, there are bluestone paths, gurgling ancient springs, green grass, forests of trees, and clusters of flowers.
"Hahaha--"
From a distance, Jiang Ming heard Li Heishui's triumphant laughter. He could tell that he really had the feeling of a villain who had succeeded. Come to think of it, he was a real villain, the descendant of ten rapists.
"Hahaha, a foreign purple crystal source. Even though it's only as big as a melon seed, it's equivalent to more than thirty kilograms of pure source. Tsk tsk, you guys are convinced of your defeat this time!
You laughed at us for coming to Daoyi Holy Land's gambling stone shop to look for watermelon stone to cut, haha, little did you know that it was you who were short-sighted. "
Tu Fei smiled so proudly. He did not change his appearance. Even if he and Li Heishui walked in and out of the Holy City openly, no one would be willing to attack them.
As for Ye Fan, of course he had changed his appearance and turned into a strange cultivator.
He has now completed the five divine treasures of the Dao Palace Secret Realm and is accumulating sources in preparation for impacting the Four Extreme Secret Realms.
It is roughly estimated that 10 million kilograms of pure source are needed.
"It's really amazing. Forty-nine watermelon seeds and amethyst source."
After Jiang Ming approached, he opened his mouth and exclaimed, "Say."
Tu Fei, Li Heishui and Ye Fan were all extremely surprised when they saw Jiang Ming and Yan Ruyu. Now they were safe, and even if they won the source, they wouldn't have to worry about not being able to take it away.
"Brother Jiang, sister-in-law."
The three of them shouted in unison, trying to build a closer relationship first so that those around them who dared to laugh at them could see it.
Soon, Xia Yiming and her little nun sister looked over curiously.
“I didn’t expect that gambling on stones here would attract the descendants of the East Demon and the Demon Emperor. Now it’s even more lively.”
"Yes, such a grand occasion can't be seen on ordinary days."
"These three guys, it seems like I know them."
"It's normal to know him. Isn't the Green Dragon King a great thief?"
Immediately, some young talents around couldn't help but speak up.
"Just keep gambling on stones. I'll take a look."
Jiang Ming smiled warmly and said to the three of them.
Yan Ruyu did not speak. She was extremely beautiful, with a kind of beauty that could not be tolerated by this world. She stood there, peerless and independent, like a blooming divine lotus, growing out of the mud without being stained, washing in the clear water without being coquettish.
"More than a dozen nobles have admitted defeat. Since you all lost, please give us the source. Three thousand kilograms each. Thank you for your generosity. Your help makes us brothers really grateful." Ye Fan, Tu Fei and Li Heishui hurried forward, holding a dustpan, looked at the people who had bet with them on the source, and began to collect the source. Each of them smiled like a big chrysanthemum.
These people were all silent, even if some of them were extremely distressed, they still took out the source obediently.
After all, Jiang Ming and Yan Ruyu were both paying attention to them. Anyone who could come here wouldn't be short of a few thousand kilograms of source. The key point was not to embarrass themselves.
Xia Yiming, his sister the nun in white, Jin Chixiao and Yao Yuekong were all given directly to the source. Their attention was mainly focused on Jiang Ming.
I have heard of Jiang Ming's reputation for a long time, but this is the first time I have met him.
Now it seems that hearing about someone is not as good as meeting him in person!
Even if Jiang Ming's aura was completely restrained, his body, which was comparable to the seventh level of the King of the Way of Slashing, was naturally filled with a terrifying oppressive force, as if a Tyrannosaurus Rex walked into a pack of tigers, lions, leopards and wolves with a smile. That kind of oppressive force alone made these strong men at the top of the food chain fearful.
"Hahaha, let's gamble or not? Who dares to gamble with us?"
Li Heishui laughed arrogantly.
"Who else?"
Tu Fei also let himself go. It felt great to have someone to support him, so they let themselves go even more.
"How about this, let's go to the deep end of the park and have a gamble."
Dragon energy lingered around Xia Yiming. He cultivated dragon energy with a human body, which was an ability only possessed by the Taihuang Sutra of the Great Xia Dynasty.
"I am willing to continue to accompany you to the end."
Jin Chixiao laughed arrogantly, a golden light appeared on his body, and his blood was boiling, like liquid gold.
"In that case, I will also sacrifice my life to accompany you."
The enchanting moon is as bright as the night sky, and its gentle smile makes people feel like they are bathed in the spring breeze.
Ye Fan was silent. As expected, Jiang Ming came. These top young foreign geniuses, who had just been indifferent and looked calm, now unconsciously spread their feathers like peacocks.
That's great. He came here for the divine source.
Ordinary pure source can't save him.
Tens of millions of kilograms of pure source, that’s more than three hundred square sources, it’s terrifying just thinking about it!
If we could get a few large pieces of divine source, wouldn’t that be enough?
The little nun in white blinked her big eyes as she stared at Jiang Ming, the East Demon. You couldn't tell that he had the feel of a big devil. Instead, he was very good-looking and gentle, not crazy at all.
Soon, the group walked into the park on the eighteenth floor. Normally, only those who were half-step powerful would gamble on stones in such a park.
The rules of the source stone gambling here are: one pound of stone equals ten pounds of source stone.
The lightest source stone here weighs dozens of kilograms.
Therefore, if you bet on the source here and choose a larger stone and exchange it for source, it would be more than tens of thousands of pounds.
"Haha, I think it's better to go to Tianzihao to gamble directly."
Ye Fan's true intention was revealed. That was his purpose. He wanted to go big and get some divine source or precious resources.
"In that case, then it's the Tianzi number."
Jin Chixiao said without hesitation and with great courage.
Only the most powerful people would go to the yard to gamble for the top-level sources. Any stone picked up from there would be worth more than a thousand kilograms.
At this moment, many people felt that the trip was worthwhile. If they could cut out something good, wouldn’t it be possible to just fight directly?
Tsk tsk tsk——
Where is the Holy Son Daoyi? Judging from the situation, even if he rushes over now, he will not be able to control the garden, because the East Demon has come, and the East Demon's confidante has the Green Emperor's soldiers with her.
Even the Holy Lord would have a headache with this pairing!
Soon, everyone came to the deepest part of the garden, an ancient park with mountains and water. The mountains were high and the water was clear. The old vines were like dragons, and the old trees were like tigers. It was a place where dragons and tigers were crouching. No one could break in.
"Who will come first to bet with us?"
Li Heishui opened his mouth, looked at Xia Yiming, Jin Chixiao, and Yao Yuekong, and said arrogantly.
"I'll take over the first round. Let's choose a stone with a ten thousand jin of source and make a bet. After all, I only brought five sources with me this time."
Xia Yiming said frankly.
Just now, neither he nor his sister lost three thousand kilograms of energy.
Now there are indeed only three sources left.
"In that case, let Brother Xia gamble first."
Jin Chixiao and Yao Yuekong spoke politely.
Tu Fei quickly winked at Ye Fan, meaning, "It's up to you, kid. The stage has been set up for you. It's up to you to perform."
Ye Fan glanced at Jiang Ming. He had cultivated the Source of Heavenly Divine Awareness, and even if it was only a small success, it was enough.
After all, the piece of bitter gall he got was purple and not yet mature. If it was golden gall, it would be able to allow his Source Heavenly Eye to mature directly.
Of course, ever since he developed this pair of thieving eyes, he had spied on fairies quite a bit. However, some of the fairies had valuable treasures protecting them, so he could only peek at them in vain.
He has been in high spirits recently and is doing very well in the Holy City.
