"It was he who killed the Patriarch and Grand Elder?"
The group of Zhu Clan disciples were all stunned when they saw Duan Lingtian.
They only recovered from their shock when Duan Lingtian's figure flashed and vanished before their eyes in the blink of an eye.
"Such a young man actually possesses the strength to kill the Patriarch and the others … Who exactly is he?"
"He's surely a member of those great powers!"
"I wonder how the Patriarch and the others offended him."
"Fortunately, he didn't have the intention of making a move against our Zhu Clan … Otherwise, our Zhu Clan would surely be annihilated!"
…
The Zhu Clan disciples discussed animatedly, and many of them even had a slight lingering fear in their hearts.
They rejoiced that they'd escaped calamity.
Duan Lingtian left.
He left the Zhu Clan and left Abundance City.
To him, the incident that occurred in Abundance City was only a small matter that wasn't worth mentioning.
It wasn't long before he tossed it to the back of his mind.
Milky Way City, the most bustling trade city in the Darkhan Dynasty.
It was also the final destination Duan Lingtian came to the Darkhan Dynasty.
"My time is limited and I'm unable to head to the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital … If I'm unable to find the Ageless Root in the Darkhan Dynasty's Milky Way City and the Darkstone Empire's Flourishing Summer City. Then I can only continue searching after the Darkstone Empire advances in the future and head to the Darkhan Dynasty's Capital. "
Duan Lingtian headed all the way to Milky Way City according to the map in his hand.
During this period of time, he'd found a forest that was densely packed with demon beasts, and he used his soul skill, Thousand Illusions, to tame a seventh level Void Prying Stage flying demon beast as a means of transportation.
Even though the speed of this flying demon beast was slower than the little gold mouse, it wasn't much inferior.
Duan Lingtian sat cross-legged on the back of the flying demon beast as he cultivated in meditation.
He'd forgotten the time while cultivating.
Only when the flying demon beast jolted Duan Lingtian awake did Duan Lingtian awaken from his cultivation.
"I'm still slightly lacking from the sixth level of the Void Prying Stage."
Presently, another two months had passed.
Duan Lingtian's cultivation obtained a swift improvement.
He was already close to the sixth level of the Void Prying Stage.
"That's … Han River City?"
Duan Lingtian sat on the back of the flying demonic beast as it swooped down. A city appeared in front of him.
This city was definitely the largest city Duan Lingtian had ever seen in this world.
In terms of land area.
Even if the Imperial City of the Darkstone Empire and the Flourishing Summer City were added together, they wouldn't be able to compare to half of this city.
As they approached the city, Duan Lingtian could see it clearly.
One after another, swift figures flew across the sky or sprinted across the ground. They kept surging into Han River City in front of them.
Among these figures, there were human warriors and monstrous beasts.
The latter were all controlled by human ancient martial art practitioners.
Duan Lingtian slowly stood up and stepped on the flying beast, allowing it to take him into the city.
In Han River City, there were too many high-profile people like Duan Lingtian.
Therefore, Duan Lingtian's arrival did not attract the attention of others.
"I should first look for the Treasure Gathering Pavilion to issue an assignment."
Duan Lingtian thought in his heart.
Subsequently, he descended from the sky and stopped a middle aged man that passed by, then asked politely. "Big Brother, may I ask …?"
"Don't disturb me, I have an urgent matter!"
The middle aged man spoke impatiently.
"Big Brother, I want to ask about the location of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and smiled, then a gold bill of 10,000 appeared out of thin air in his hand.
"Walk ahead and reach the end. Turn right and you'll reach the Treasure Gathering Pavilion."
The middle-aged man took the gold notes, and his attitude changed drastically. Then, he left.
"Really realistic."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and soared up into the sky once more, then stood on the back of the flying demonic beast and urged it to continue forward.
In next to no time, they arrived at the end of the road.
After turning right, Duan Lingtian saw a large golden signboard on an independent building in the distance …
Treasure Gathering Pavilion!
Duan Lingtian had just arrived at the entrance of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion when an attendant came over to greet him.
"Guest, please come in."
One of the attendants respectfully welcomed Duan Lingtian in.
Duan Lingtian nodded, then stepped on the flying demonic beast and entered the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
On the way, the attendant asked Duan Lingtian about the purpose of his visit.
When he found out that Duan Lingtian had come for the sake of issuing a bounty, he didn't dare dally and brought Duan Lingtian up to the third floor.
"Guest, may I know what you need as a bounty? What are you using as a bounty? "
The old man behind the counter looked at Duan Lingtian with a tranquil expression.
"Ageless Root!"
Duan Lingtian did the same as when he was at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in Flourishing Summer City. After he described the characteristics of the Ageless Root, he specially drew the Ageless Root.
Subsequently, Duan Lingtian withdrew a grade four spirit sword and passed it to the old man.
The old man held the grade four spirit sword in his hand with a skeptical expression.
Whoosh!
Along with Origin Energy blossoming from the old man's hand, an ancient horned dragon silhouette and 2,000 ancient mammoth silhouettes appeared out of thin air at the side of the two ancient horned dragon silhouettes above him.
"First level of the Void Initiation Stage!"
Duan Lingtian was slightly surprised.
When he entered, he didn't use his Spiritual Force to detect the old man's cultivation.
Now, the old man revealed a cultivation at the first level of the Void Initiation Stage, and it shocked him.
As expected of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in the most flourishing city of the Darkhan Dynasty.
A mere old man that was in charge of registering at the counter was an existence at the Void Initiation Stage.
Duan Lingtian was surprised, but the old man was even more surprised than him.
"An amplification of 60%?"
The old man's stiff face revealed a shocked expression, and his muddy eyes flickered with a bright light.
When he saw the old man looking over, Duan Lingtian lightly nodded. "Senior, please help me register."
The old man nodded and said slightly woodenly, "The handling fee can be waived for a grade four spirit weapon … Three months from now, no matter if you've placed a bounty on the thing you need, you can use this half a jade pendant to exchange for your spirit weapon."
As he finished speaking, the old man passed a broken jade pendant to Duan Lingtian.
The rules were no different than the Treasure Gathering Pavilion in the Darkstone Empire's Flourishing Summer City.
"A grade four spirit sword that provides an amplification of 60%?"
The attendant that brought Duan Lingtian in was completely stunned on the spot, and he seemed to be petrified.
According to his knowledge.
There seemed to be no grade four Weapons Craftsman in the Darkhan Dynasty that was capable of refining a grade four spirit weapon that provided an amplification of 60%.
Thus, the value of this grade four spirit sword was obvious.
"I'll be troubling Senior."
Duan Lingtian lightly smiled and nodded to the old man before urging the demon beast beneath him to leave.
"A grade four spirit weapon that provides an amplification of 60% … Could it be that he's related to that person? Wait! Even if it's that person, he's only refined two grade four spirit weapons that provide an amplification of 59% after exhausting his entire lifetime's worth of effort, and there isn't a single grade four spirit weapon that provides an amplification of 60%. "
A thought had only just arisen within the old man's heart when it was shattered by himself.
In his eyes, the violet colored figure that was disappearing into the distance was so mysterious.
"You, quickly take this diagram to the first floor's hall and paste it on the notice board in the hall … Announce that no matter who it is, so long as they find the medicinal material on the diagram, they'll be able to obtain a grade four spirit sword that provides an amplification of 60%!"
The old man looked at the attendant and spoke with a serious expression.
"Yes."
The attendant replied and left.
Whereas the old man left the counter and walked up the stairs that led upstairs.
After a short moment, he'd arrived outside a pavilion on the fifth floor.
"Pavilion Master!"
The old man stood outside and bowed.
The Treasure Gathering Pavilion was an industry under a formidable power of the Darkhan Dynasty.
It was distributed throughout the Darkhan Dynasty.
Even the various Empires under the Darkhan Dynasty had branches of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
Every Pavilion Branch had a Pavilion Master.
The Han River City was no exception.
Not only that, because the Han River City was the most prosperous commercial city in the Darkhan Dynasty, the Pavilion Master of the Han River City's Treasure Gathering Pavilion was an expert with shocking strength.
No one knew how strong this Pavilion Master was.
However, even though the Han River City's Treasure Gathering Pavilion contained numerous precious treasures, there were very few people that dared to come look for trouble.
The deterrent force of this Pavilion Master could be seen from this.
"Come in."
A sonorous voice sounded out from within the pavilion.
Following the old man in the pavilion, the old man walked into the pavilion.
A middle aged man that stood there with his back facing the old man appeared within his field of vision.
"Is there something you need?"
The middle aged man turned around and stared at the old man with a gaze that was like lightning as he asked.
"Pavilion Master, look at this."
Although based on appearance alone, the old man was sufficient to be the middle aged man's father, he was respectful and reverent when facing the middle aged man and didn't dare be disrespectful in the slightest.
As he spoke.
A sword appeared in his hand, a spirit sword.
"This is?"
The middle aged man raised his hand and didn't seem to make any movements.
The spirit sword in the old man's hand instantly flew up and firmly descended into his hand.
It was as if it was guided by a shapeless force.
If Duan Lingtian was here and saw this scene, he would surely be indescribably shocked.
This was because the technique the middle-aged man executed was a technique that allowed him to obtain an object from afar.
Telekinesis.
It seemed simple, but was actually extremely difficult.
If it wasn't a martial artist with a formidable strength, it was utterly impossible to accomplish this.
But the old man didn't seem to be surprised in the slightest when faced with the middle aged man's telekinesis technique, as if it was a common occurrence.
The middle aged man's gaze descended onto the spirit sword in his hand.
After a while, his eyes abruptly squinted. "What a profound method of equipment refinement … This grade four spirit sword is at least able to provide an amplification of 59%! Could it be the masterpiece of that old fellow? "
As he finished speaking, the middle aged man muttered to himself.
The old man that stood respectfully at the side wasn't surprised that the middle aged man was able to discern the extraordinariness of the spirit sword with his naked eye.
This was because he knew the Pavilion Master was a grade four weapons craftsman himself!
He was also one of the only five grade four Weapons Craftsmen that the Darkhan Dynasty knew of.
"Wait!"
In next to no time, the middle aged man shook his head and muttered. "I've seen the two top grade four spirit weapons refined by that old fellow, but there isn't a spirit sword … Could it be that this is his most recent creation?"
As he finished muttering to himself, the middle aged man looked at the old man and asked with a low voice. "Who placed this sword in our Treasure Gathering Pavilion?"
"It's a young man."
