CHAPTER 450
Thirty Ancient Divine Weapons
"Peacock Blue? What is this? Why doesn't it have a rank or description? "Xia Fei suddenly asked at a moment when the two birds least expected it.
The two birds were stunned at the same time. Blackie asked doubtfully, "So you noticed the words' Peacock Blue '?"
Xia Fei chuckled. "These three words are listed on a single line, with no price or explanation. How could I possibly turn a blind eye to such a peculiar existence?"
Blackie was even more puzzled. "Then why didn't you ask me earlier? Why did you wait until 2.4 billion points were spent before asking me?"
Xia Fei shrugged. "Humans are greedy, and I'm no different. That's why I first got my hands on the two things I need the most before asking about this ancient monster. I'm afraid that this thing is so valuable that I'll be tempted to go all out to get it. What am I supposed to do if I end up delaying what I need the most?"
"That's why I purposely waited until I had obtained the two items I needed the most before asking. As for the remaining items, it's up to you whether you want them or not.
"Aren't you afraid of missing out on a rare treasure?"
Of course I'm afraid. It's true that the insectoid powerhouses are dead, but there's still the mysterious High Priest Ryun who hasn't shown himself yet. My greatest need now is to protect myself. Peacock Blue doesn't sound like a weapon, and what I need the most right now is a weapon. No matter how valuable it is, I need to be alive to hold it in my hands.
Whitey was depressed. She did not expect Xia Fei's mind to be so meticulous and his will to be so resolute. Putting aside a treasure that was clearly in front of him, he first took care of what he needed the most. His rationality was a little too much!
Xiao Hei stared blankly for a moment before nodding heavily. "So that's how it is. Peacock Blue requires ten billion points to be exchanged for, and only those who have passed through the giant stone array have the right to exchange for it. Since ancient times, you are the first person to have obtained such a right."
Xia Fei's eyes lit up! An Immortal rank weapon was worth one billion points, but this Peacock Blue actually required ten billion points?! If that was the case, then it was definitely not an ordinary object. Its level was probably as high as the heavens!
"What is this thing? It's actually worth ten billion points? "
The black parrot had a solemn expression, and Xia Fei could not help but perk up his ears to listen.
"Peacock Blue is indeed very unusual, because it is a stalk of grass!"
"A stalk of grass?" Xia Fei blinked, confused. "Ten billion points for a stalk of grass? Is this the legendary robbery? "
Little Black looked a little depressed. Little White, who had been silent for a long time, had long been stifled. Hearing this, the sharp bird immediately said angrily, "What's wrong with your eyes! This was no ordinary weed, it was Peacock Blue! Do you understand Blue Peacock?! "
"One of the seven plants of the Cloud Sea, Blue Peacock!"
"The Eight Metals of Traverse, the Six Waters of Startling Spring, the Four Stones of the Southern Star, the Five Flames of Grand Brightness, and the Seven Trees of the Cloud Sea are known as the Thirty Immemorial Godly Armaments! Peacock Blue was one of the Thirty Immemorial Mystical Armaments! He could easily exchange it for a Law of Dao! It's even more valuable than the territories of you humans and insectoids combined!! Country bumpkin! Do you even understand?! How infuriating! How infuriating! "
Xia Fei was not annoyed by Whitey's disdain toward him. He was completely stumped by the names of the Brilliant Five Flames and the Cloud Sea Seven Trees, for he truly did not know what they were.
Blackie sighed. He reckoned that Whitey would never be able to change her bad habit of speaking too fast. Her words were just short of telling Xia Fei the secret of the Black and White Gods. It was simply too ridiculous!
Xia Fei was stunned for a few seconds before he asked in a deep voice, "The Thirty Immemorial Mystical Armaments? One of the Cloud Sea's Seven Plants, what's going on? "
Xiao Hei patted its head with its wings and said with a smile, "Fine, fine. You're the inheritor of the Laws chosen by Master after all. It's no big deal for me to tell you."
"Nebula Steel, Crooked Steel, Nether Frost Steel, Ferocious Steel, Furious Sea Silver, Moving Mountain Silver, Broken Cauldron Bronze, and Withered Spirit Gold. These eight are all metals, and are known as the Eight Metals of Transverse."
"The Phoenix Tail Stone, the Distant Black Stone, the Heaven Destruction Stone, and the Flowing Cloud Stone are the Four Stones of the Southern Star."
"Thousand Seeker Ice, Ring Ice, Jade Green Spring, Black Shell Spring, Bitter Hatred Water, and White Breaking Water. These are the Six Waters of Startling Origin."
"There are also the Five Brilliant Flames, which are the Sun Splitting Flame, Grief Flame, Sound Flame, Wolf Butcher Flame, and Empty Valley Flame."
"As for the Seven Plants of the Cloud Sea, they are the Duanshan Leaf, the Unparting Pine, the Warping Sea Lotus, the Scattered Star Chrysanthemum, the Nine Night Plum, the Howling Moon Willow, and the Peacock Blue."
"There are a total of thirty of them, and they are known as the Immemorial Thirty Mystical Armaments!"
Shocking!
Incomparably shocking!
Xia Fei took a very long time to gradually calm himself down. Just hearing these mighty and extraordinary names made his heart palpitate. They were most likely the top-notch mystical armaments of the world of Law Adepts! How could Xia Fei not be excited to encounter such a high-end item here and now!?
Drinking the water in one gulp, Xia Fei asked, "None of the thirty items you mentioned are weapons, so why are they called mystical armaments?"
Xiao Hei laughed. "There are many types of weapons. The blade in your hand is a weapon, but isn't your speed ability a weapon as well? As long as you can kill your enemies, it doesn't matter if you use a blade, a fist, or even a sharp gaze. They can all be considered weapons, so from this point of view, there's nothing wrong with calling them mystical armaments.
"The Immemorial Thirty Mystical Armaments each have their own strengths, and they have existed since the beginning of the universe. You mustn't ask me why; not even my master can explain such a profound question. In short, the universe is very large, very strange, very bizarre, and very dangerous. It's just that your position is too low, so you can't see much further, which is why you're so conflicted over a title."
Xia Fei nodded, having a whole new level of respect for this pitch-black parrot. He had not expected this bird to be able to speak so logically and logically, containing such profound philosophies in its plainness.
Smiling, Xia Fei asked, "Since Peacock Blue is so powerful, why don't the Black and White Gods keep it for themselves? Why put it here?"
Xiao Hei sighed. "Of course Master wants to keep it for himself. Alas, Peacock Blue is just like its name, proud and stubborn. Peacock represents pride, and blue represents blueluster grass, one of the most common weeds in the universe. It lives in the crevices of mountains, and even the harshest weather can't make it yield. Cold and dry have never been able to stop its growth.
"This Peacock Blue is a combination of the pride of a peacock and the indomitable spirit of blueluster grass. It's both a lowly existence and the most stubborn and tenacious existence in the universe. It's unknown, but no one has ever dared to look down on it.
"According to Master, Peacock Blue will choose its own master, and its requirements are very strict. Even Boss Black and Boss White can do nothing about it, so they left it here and tried to see if someone would take it away. Alas, after so many years, the disappointing insectoids haven't even managed to get a single chance to take it away."
As Xiao Hei spoke, he looked at Xia Fei. His meaning was clear. The Black and White Gods had left Peacock Blue because they felt that it was fated with the insectoids, but it ended up benefiting a human.
Xia Fei said without hesitation, "Since that's the case, I've decided to try and take it away."
* Whoosh! *
Xia Fei's points were reduced by ten billion, and Whitey wickedly said, "That's what you said. Whether you succeed or fail, you won't refund any of your points."
Xia Fei was speechless. In the end, it was still robbery. No refund? How was this even possible?
Xia Fei clenched his teeth. "Fine. Chances don't come around all the time. I'm willing to take this risk for Peacock Blue! After all, as long as I get it, I'll have the strength to fight a top-class expert. "
Xiao Hei repeatedly nodded. "Giving up ten Immortal grade weapons for a chance is a spirit worthy of praise, but according to Master, Peacock Blue has no rank. Even if you manage to obtain it, it won't be of much help to you. What stage Peacock Blue will eventually develop will depend on Master's cultivation and care. In short, each Immemorial Mystical Armament is very strange, and no one can truly understand it. You've only just reached level 5, which is what humans call the Legendary rank. Peacock Blue probably won't be able to display much combat power at this stage, so you'll have to rely on yourself."
Whitey flapped her wings and jeered, "Bumpkin, do you understand? Your rank is too low. Putting aside the fact that Peacock Blue might not belong to you, even if it does, it won't change your current situation! Even if you obtain it, it'll be the same as obtaining nothing! "
Xia Fei smiled, the corner of his lips curling up into a smile as he said, "But I feel like this is the most worthwhile point I've ever spent in my life. Is it because I've gotten something that money can't buy?"
"What is it?" the unruly Whitey tilted her head and asked.
"Hope."
Her voice was not loud, but it was as piercing as a needle in Whitey's ear.
Hope had never been something that could be traded. It was undeniable that Xia Fei might not be able to obtain Peacock Blue, and even if he did, it would not be of much help to him at this stage, but who could say that Xia Fei could not reach the Eternal rank, the Immortal rank, or even the world of Law Adepts?
Exchanging ten Immortal grade weapons for an illusory hope seemed very crazy, but one should not forget that Xia Fei had been able to get to where he was today precisely because he was crazier than most people!
…
A door of light suddenly opened in the air. It was dark inside, and no one knew where it led.
Blackie extended its wings and made an inviting gesture, while Whitey pouted angrily. She, who had always been unruly, had always wanted to see Xia Fei fail, yet Xia Fei had disappointed her time and time again, leaving her with nowhere to vent the anger she had been suppressing in her heart.
Taking a deep breath, Xia Fei strode in.
Passing through this door felt very strange. It was like going from one room to another, but the scenery before him was completely different.
There was a patch of dazzling blue on a bare stone mountain. Looking at it under the sunlight, it didn't seem strange at all. It was just a common blue luster grass, but this bit of blue couldn't be hidden no matter how high the mountain was and how steep it was. The first thing anyone would notice was not the precipitous cliff, but the blue at the top of the mountain.
* Whoosh ~ *
Xia Fei's figure flashed, and he instantly reached the summit.
This Blueluster Grass had forcefully squeezed through a crack in a stone slab. The wind on the mountain was strong, and the grass swayed in the wind.
"It truly is the strongest and most stubborn plant!" Xia Fei's eyes brightened as he sincerely praised.
Squatting down, Xia Fei extended a hand and slowly approached Peacock Blue.
Suddenly!
