Even though Wang Baole was a Dharmic Armament cultivator who had previously used up a large amount of materials to refine Dharmic Artifacts and Dharmic Armaments, and even thought that he had seen a lot of things and could be considered somewhat wealthy, he was still deeply shocked by what he had gained this time.
His breathing quickened uncontrollably as he looked at the items in front of him. At the same time, he saw that there were many materials in the three storage bags. Some were for refining elixirs, some were for refining weapons, and there were many that he didn't recognize. However, based on the density of the spiritual energy on them, it wasn't difficult to guess that any one of these items was shockingly valuable.
"This is robbery …" The light in Wang Baole's eyes grew brighter and brighter. He felt that this was a path to riches. Although it was extremely risky, as long as he succeeded, he would be able to rest and recuperate for ten years.
I reckon that only a small portion of this belongs to the Federation. Most of it must have been looted by the three of them from other places … Wang Baole suppressed his erratic breathing, and a look of clarity appeared in his eyes. He looked at the items in front of him, then at the three Artifact Spirits in front of him. After that, he scanned his surroundings. Thoughts spun in his mind as he began to think.
"If I were to tell others that I killed three extraterrestrial Yuanying … then this merit would be enough for me to be promoted, not to mention that I also helped the Federation to retrieve the Stellar Source. However, I can't say this …" Wang Baole was a little conflicted. He was certain that as long as he claimed credit for this, he would definitely expose the Dark Weapon. There was even a certain possibility that it would bring about a series of troubles for him.
Although these troubles wouldn't be life-threatening, they would leave him in a terrible fix and leave behind future troubles. Just like what was said in the high officials' autobiographies, one had to believe in the kindness of human nature, but one shouldn't gamble on this kindness. More importantly, one shouldn't give others the chance to breed demons in their hearts!
Otherwise, the one who would pay the price in the end would not only be oneself, but also the friends and elders who wouldn't breed demons in them!
After pondering for a while, Wang Baole's eyes were filled with determination. He had already made up his mind. This matter … he couldn't tell anyone about it. As for the resources of the Federation, he could just use them temporarily. When he had the means in the future, he could repay them.
Wang Baole was not a saint. He was just a small character. Now that he had made his decision, he didn't hesitate anymore. Instead, he immediately looked at the three Weapon Spirits and spoke quickly.
"Are there any items that can be used to repair the Dark Weapon?"
The Grand Master looked at the items and was a little envious. The little boy was the same, too. However, Wang Baole had already decided to repair the Boat. so even if they were tempted, they could only express their desire.... The Weapon Weapon Spirit of the Boat at one side... of the Weapon Weapon Spirit was calm, as if he was also analyzing the items and analyzed, of course, he was of of of the items.
"Master, in theory, these items … can be used to repair the Dark Boat. Especially this Star Source Mountain. Even if its quality is ordinary, it will be of great help to repair the Dark Boat.
"As for the materials, be it for refining weapons or elixirs, they contain Spiritual Qi and have special effects. They will be of great help to the Dark Boat. Even if it's just a bunch of random soldiers, the essence extracted from them will be useful to repair the Dark Boat!
"Also, this centipede has an unusual bloodline. It seems to have been refined in the wrong direction. If it is suppressed in the Dark Boat, it can be assimilated by the power of the Dark Weapon and evolve. It will be able to explode with even more power. However, the disadvantage is that once it is assimilated by the Dark Weapon, it won't be able to leave the Dark Weapon.
"As for this Sea Centipede, I suggest that Master use the Dark Weapon to suppress it and erase the brand on it. When Master's cultivation reaches the level of Yuanying, you can use this Sea Centipede to travel the universe!"
When Wang Baole heard the other party's words, he felt both joy and heartache. He was happy that these items could be of help to repair the Dark Boat, but heartache was about to be lost before he could even get a hold of them.
"How much of the Dark Boat can be repaired with these treasures?" Wang Baole suppressed the heartache in his heart and thought for a moment before asking.
"They should be able to repair the Dark Boat to about ten percent!" The Dark Boat's Item Spirit calculated and gave the answer.
"Only about ten percent?" Wang Baole felt even more heartache. As for the Dark Boat's Item Spirit, it was expressionless and didn't say a word. When the little boy and the Imperial Advisor saw Wang Baole's expression, they felt much better. They even faintly felt that it was good to have a new master. At the very least, they could eat as they pleased. If they wanted anything, they just had to give the order. Everything became very simple.
Wang Baole hesitated for a moment. He looked at the treasures and touched the materials. He still couldn't make up his mind. Then, the Dark Boat's Item Spirit spoke calmly.
"Master, once the Dark Boat is repaired to one hundred percent, it will erupt with the power of a superior-grade Divine Weapon. These miscellaneous items are completely worthless. Even if it is repaired to about ten percent, it will create a defense that no one below the Spirit Immortal Realm can break through. This is the safest choice for you, who can't take the Dark Artifact away!"
"I understand … assimilate what needs to be assimilated, suppress what needs to be suppressed, and … cultivate what needs to be cultivated!" Wang Baole let out a long sigh. However, he quickly raised his hand and put aside the tri-colored flying sword, the ribbon, the remaining three scales, all the jade slips, medicinal pills, and two or three Dharma treasures that he thought looked pretty good.
"You can't refine these. As for the rest … you can refine them!" Wang Baole said the last five words with heartache. He couldn't bear to continue looking at them. Instead, he quickly picked up the jade box. After he tried to open it but to no avail, he looked at the Dark Boat's Item Spirit.
"This is a treasure, right?"
The Dark Boat's Item Spirit was still expressionless. He waved his right hand and immediately put away all the items that Wang Baole had agreed to refine, including the assimilation of the centipede and the suppression of the Sea Glutton. After doing that, he looked at the jade box with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
"This stone box … I can't tell what it is. It feels like a woman's jewelry box."
After the Dark Boat's Item Spirit spoke, the Dark Robe's Item Spirit, the old State Preceptor, revealed a smug look in his eyes. He coughed dryly but didn't take the initiative to speak.
Wang Baole raised his head and glanced at the old State Preceptor. He saw through his thoughts and snorted in his heart. He thought to himself, I've been reading the high officials' autobiographies since I was young. Now, I'm a City Lord with a Primary Rank Three Noble. The way of controlling people is already engraved in my bones. Hence, he pointed at the little boy without hesitation.
"Do you know?"
When he realized that Wang Baole didn't ask him, the old State Preceptor looked surprised. The little boy beside him was deep in thought. After a while, he spoke.
"I think this looks like a pencil box …"
Hearing the little boy's words, the State Preceptor's eyes became even more smug. He raised his head and waited for Wang Baole's question. He had even thought of using this opportunity to let Wang Baole know that he was the most valuable of the three Item Spirits.
"Hmm, I think what you two said makes sense. It should be like that." Wang Baole nodded his head with a satisfied expression. He took out a magical item from the pile of items he had left behind and tossed it to the little boy.
"This is your reward!"
When the little boy received the magic treasure, he was immediately excited. With a few crunches, he swallowed it into his stomach. One could clearly feel that his spirit body seemed to have become much brighter.
"Alright, you guys can go now. I'm going to cultivate for a bit, then I'll head out. You guys be good here. Also, don't keep provoking beast hordes. The city above is mine!" With that, Wang Baole waved his hand and prepared to leave. However, the State Preceptor was starting to get anxious. He could only watch as the underworld galleon and the little boy reaped rewards, while he got nothing. Therefore, he decided not to play any tricks.
"Milord, I recognize this jade box."
"Oh? It's not a pencil box? " Wang Baole was feeling very pleased with himself, but on the surface, he put on a strange expression. He looked at the State Preceptor, and then at the little boy. The boy immediately grew nervous, and looked back at the State Preceptor with an unfriendly expression.
If Wang Baole hadn't given him a reward, he wouldn't have acted this way. However, now that he had eaten the reward, the little boy was very dissatisfied with the State Preceptor's actions.
The State Preceptor sighed in his heart, realizing that this Milord wasn't easy to fool. With just a few words, he had caused a rift between him and the idiotic old lamp artifact spirit that liked to pretend to be young. However, he knew that if he continued to hide it, given his Milord's personality, he would probably find an opportunity to deal with him.
Therefore, the elderly State Preceptor sighed again. He bowed deeply towards Wang Baole and spoke hurriedly.
He quickly said, "Milord, this stone box should be an envelope. Perhaps there's a letter inside!
"When I was wandering outside, I once saw an ancient book that recorded some secrets of the Never-Ending Clan. One of them was that … a few Divine Emperors of the Never-Ending Clan in ancient times had once worked together to create a special envelope made of stellar sources. Its use was unknown …
