Chapter 621: The Secret of Immemorial Mystical Armaments
In truth, aside from Xia Fei being a little crazy and not caring too much about the rules of the world, it was not like he had never done anything good. Just some time ago, he had saved Miss Fuping of the Mu family from an assassin, and that was considered a great deed.
Alas, it was very difficult for such a thing to be known by the world. On the contrary, when he was suspected of murdering the patriarch and was wanted by the Law Enforcement Board, he was immediately known by the entire Law Realm.
Life was just that interesting. Mu Fuping came from the high and mighty Nine Great Clans, so if something were to happen to her, even the entire Yu family's lives would not be enough. Logically speaking, Xia Fei saving Mu Fuping was definitely more important than him killing Yu Jiang.
However, good news did not spread like wildfire, and bad news spread like wildfire. Everyone was still talking about Xia Fei murdering his patriarch and betraying the Yu family. No one remembered that Xia Fei had actually saved someone. The saddest thing was that Yu Jiang was not killed by Xia Fei at all!
The Snowdrift Clan was the most secretive existence among the Nine Great Clans, and it was made up entirely of females.
Two young ladies hugged each other, and the elegantly decorated room was filled with dejection.
One was fresh and refined, like a fairy that had descended into the mortal realm, her elegant demeanor giving off an unreachable feeling. The other was cute and clever, her pink cheeks making one want to pinch them. Her skin was so smooth that it felt like water would come out of it.
These two were none other than Xiao Yu and Autumn Cicada. Xia Fei's matter had also reached their ears, and the two felt sad for Xia Fei. Autumn Cicada gently furrowed her brows, while Xiao Yu wept sadly.
"We're about to meet, but … but why is Big Brother Xia Fei in trouble again?" Xiao Yu pouted as she muttered to herself.
Reality had long since proven that Xia Fei was indeed a troublemaker. Even if he did not look for trouble, trouble would find him, just like day and night, black and white, inseparable.
Autumn Cicada did not say anything, seemingly thinking about something.
Xiao Yu wiped her tears and softly asked, "Miss, what are you thinking about?"
Autumn Cicada came back to her senses and curled up on the sofa, hugging her knees. "I'm thinking that the lady who's with Xia Fei must have a strong heart, or else I won't be able to take these unforeseen events."
Xiao Yu nodded, still mumbling to herself, "We're about to meet, so why is there another unforeseen event? Why is it always like this … I wonder if Big Brother Xia Fei can escape this calamity. "
The two girls each had their own thoughts. Xiaoyu grumbled about missing out on Xia Fei, while Autumn Cicada was clearly more interested in matters of the heart. As they grew up, this curiosity of hers became harder and harder to quash.
Fate made fools of people. Just as they were about to meet again, in the blink of an eye, Xia Fei and Xiao Yu were once again on different sides of the world. It was unknown when such days would come to an end.
…
The border of the Demon Race.
After being purified by the White Jade Ape, the gathered Origin Energy entered Xia Fei's body. It was as thin as a thread, not exactly surging but very easy to control. It was most suitable for cultivating the Law of Energy Purification.
"With this pedestal, the effects of the White Jade Ape are obviously much stronger than before. If I use it to cultivate, I'll definitely get twice the results with half the effort," Xia Fei happily said.
The Law of Energy Purification was very difficult to control, and unless one was exceptionally talented, it would usually require the assistance of an expert. The energy gathering ability of the White Jade Ape easily solved this problem. Even without the assistance of an expert, Xia Fei could still cultivate it by himself.
Now was clearly not the time to cultivate the Law of Energy Purification. The most important thing at the moment was to infiltrate the Demon Race, obtain an unregistered high-grade spatial compass, and then return to the Alliance. As for cultivating it, that could wait for another day.
Putting away the White Jade Ape, Xia Fei stared at the domineering Immemorial Mystical Armament Nine Night Plum in front of him. The ship was small, and after releasing it, it practically filled up the entire cockpit. The strange black flower was very eye-catching.
Lionheart Emperor Oro nonchalantly asked, "Do you know why these people are willing to pay any price to gather Immemorial Mystical Armaments?"
"Because they're very powerful?" Xia Fei replied.
Oro shrugged. "The Eight Metals of Traversal, the Seven Plants of the Cloud Sea, the Six Waters of Startling Origins, the Five Fires of Grand Clarity, and the Four Stones of the Southern Star. There are thirty Immemorial Mystical Armaments, and they are divided into five categories: metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Metal represents sharpness, wood represents tenacity, water represents tolerance, fire represents offense, and earth represents defense. Each has its own attribute, and they complement and counteract each other, forming a cycle that corresponds to the endless flow of the universe. It's another manifestation of Origin Energy.
"Separately, Immemorial Mystical Armaments are born from the universe, and each one is very powerful and has its own value. It's already very difficult for an ordinary person to obtain one, and even more difficult is to subdue a Nature type Immemorial Mystical Armament.
"You already have Peacock Blue, the world's most tenacious weed. No matter how powerful the Nine Night Plum is, you won't be able to subdue it, because a warrior can only subdue one Immemorial Mystical Armament in their lifetime."
Xia Fei was taken aback, somewhat disappointed. "Does that mean that the Nine Night Plum is useless to me and can only watch?"
To do a good job, one must first sharpen one's tools. Though Xia Fei already had many heaven-defying treasures, who would complain about having more weapons? After all, one more Immemorial Mystical Armament was equivalent to one more guarantee for one's life. If he had the chance, Xia Fei would definitely not hesitate to take all thirty Immemorial Mystical Armaments for himself.
Xia Fei was rather dissatisfied that he could not use the Immemorial Mystical Armament that he had risked his life to obtain, and the wound on his ribs began to ache again.
After a pause, Lionheart Emperor Oro narrowed his eyes as he observed Xia Fei. "It's not completely impossible, but you'll have to do it the way of our Demon Race."
"The way of the Demon Race?" Xia Fei was very confused. The two peak races were mysterious and profound. Just what was so wondrous about the Demon Race's method that Oro spoke of?
"There's a legend among the Demon Race that the Thirty Immemorial Mystical Armaments represent metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, the ultimate powers of the five elements of nature. This power isn't independent but needs to be combined!
"To put it simply, the Peacock Blue you have now will serve as the foundation. Once you fuse it with the Duanshan Leaf, Unparting Pine, Warping Sea Lotus, Scattered Star Chrysanthemum, Nine Night Plum, and Howling Moon Willow, you'll obtain the strongest wood-type weapon in nature!"
Xia Fei was deeply moved by Oro's words. Each of the Thirty Immemorial Mystical Armaments was a supreme treasure. Peacock Blue had a total of thirteen leaves, and two of them had just grown, yet they already possessed unimaginable power! If he could fuse it with the other six wood-type weapons, would it not be nature-defying?
"Of the five elements, wood, water, fire, and earth, the wood element is the second most difficult to fuse. This is because there are seven wood-type weapons in total, which is a lot to begin with. These mystical armaments are scattered across the universe, some collected by the aristocratic families while others have yet to be found. Collecting all seven of the Cloud Sea Seven Plants will be an unimaginable challenge.
"Moreover, fusing the Immemorial Mystical Armaments is extremely troublesome. It requires one weapon to devour the other, and every additional fusion means an additional risk."
Oro spoke with confidence and composure. Xia Fei and Phantom were dumbfounded. None of them had expected that the Immemorial Mystical Armaments could fuse with each other! Fusing into a brand-new weapon!
"Has anyone succeeded before?" Xia Fei cautiously asked.
"Yes." Oro sternly said, "There was once a war god of the Demon Race who found all four stones of the Southern Star and successfully fused them into a heaven-defying defensive weapon, making a name for himself in the Law Realm.
"Alas, after his death, the mystical weapon split up once more, scattering in all directions. After all, the Immemorial Mystical Armaments need to recognize a master, and once their master dies, the mystical weapon will return to its original state, waiting for a fated person."
"Are you sure?!" Xia Fei's eyes lit up.
Oro let out a long sigh. "Of course I'm sure, for that person was none other than the great ancestor of our Lionheart Race, Prometheus."
"What a pity. The great ancestor's fame is unparalleled, but us juniors have never been able to recreate his former glory," Oro unwillingly said.
Xia Fei was clearly very excited. Fusing Peacock Blue with the venomous Nine Night Plum was a great temptation to him!
Being able to wield two Immemorial Mystical Armaments at the same time was something worth celebrating for any warrior. There was no doubt that if Peacock Blue and Nine Night Plum could successfully fuse, their combat power would increase by leaps and bounds!
Gathering the Seven Plants of the Cloud Sea and combining them into a heaven-defying artifact! Just the thought of it made Xia Fei's heart beat faster!
"What should I do to fuse the Nine Night Plum? I want to try, "Xia Fei sternly said.
…
In the border region of the Demon Race, the small warship Xia Fei piloted was a product of the Demon Race, so he safely landed on a seemingly barren planet, attracting no attention.
A black cloak covered him from head to toe, and Xia Fei dressed himself like a nomad.
"Are you sure you can bluff your way through like this?" Xia Fei asked. After all, this was the territory of the Demon Race, and humans belonged to the God Race. The two sides were irreconcilable enemies and never interacted with each other, so Xia Fei was rather apprehensive about sneaking into the Demon Race alone.
"Relax. As long as you don't venture too deep into the Demon Race, there won't be any problems in the border region. Besides, you're not the only human here. There are many nameless people living here as well. As long as you do as I say, you'll be safe." Oro was clearly very excited to set foot in his territory again after so many years.
"There are humans living in the Demon Race?" Xia Fei questioned.
"Of course there are. The nameless people are warriors whose families have been wiped out or who are wanted. They have no choice but to flee far away and come to the Demon Race to seek survival. After all, while the two supreme races are at odds, they won't easily go to war with each other. Living here is actually safer than living in the God Race.
"On the border between the two races, this sort of thing isn't rare. Everyone will just turn a blind eye to it. As long as you don't do anything too out of line, no one will care about your identity. The people living here are all criminals and the poor, and survival is far more important than status.
"If you're still worried, I can tell you that the black market here is managed by the Lionheart Clan. I was once the master of this galaxy, so I know this place better than anyone else. Even the rules of the game were set by me back then," Lionheart Emperor Oro proudly said.
Xia Fei nodded. The Lionheart Emperor was an unparalleled personage, and this was once his territory, so Xia Fei felt much more at ease.
Besides, this great demon was still crouching in the Law of Ternary Spectrum, waiting for Xia Fei to kill him so that he could be reborn. There was no benefit in deceiving Xia Fei.
There were many unknown plants growing in this barren land, and Oro could not help but introduce them to Xia Fei. There was no need to mention how excited he was. Returning to his homeland, even someone like Oro could not help but feel a tinge of nostalgia. Though the journey was quiet, it was not boring.
All of a sudden, he heard someone crying and threatening in front of him. Xia Fei quietly moved over to take a look, only to see three strange-looking green-skinned warriors surrounding a man, their hands holding sharp blades to his chin. It looked like a robbery.
