Rewards
When Luo Zheng had first entered the Heavenly Palace, Lin Zhanting had argued with Qiu Yinhe.
Although Lin Zhanting was joking, he was more or less regretful. Just based on Luo Zheng's performance in the Seven Mountains Meeting, Taiyi Mountain should not have given in.
"It's not a matter of confidence. Have you predicted their performance?" Qiu Yinhe retorted.
The methods Luo Zheng and Feng Ge had displayed on the giant rock had never been seen before. No one could use past experience to determine the success or failure of the other.
Whether it was Qiu Yinhe, He Chi, Yang Zhanting, or Lin Zhanting, they were all suspicious of Feng Ge and Luo Zheng's methods of controlling the talisman matrix, but it was naturally inconvenient for them to show it now.
And since Luo Zheng had used the "True Comprehension Chapter" that Feng Ge had mentioned, he was naturally mentally prepared. If Qiu Yinhe really did ask, he would be able to respond.
The topic came to an end here.
Next, He Chi announced, "The first place of this Seven Mountains Meeting is the Heart Flow Sword Sect, the second place is Taiyi Mountain, and the third place is Taixiu Mountain. Please come up and receive your rewards!"
Gao Qizheng and the others were already itching to move. As soon as He Chi announced this, the elites of the Heart Flow Sword Sect, Taiyi Mountain, and Taixiu Mountain who had been left behind all flew towards the metal mountain.
"Taixiu Mountain first!" He Chi said.
The twenty elites of Taixiu Mountain gathered around He Chi and extended their palms to him.
He Chi's lips moved slightly, and he extended his hand to slap those palms.
With each slap, a few simple lines were left on their palms.
Luo Zheng saw these lines and his eyes lit up. "These are soul marks?"
He Chi smiled. "Of course. With these soul marks, you can go to the Heavenly Palace Temple in three days and receive a soul crystal."
The soul mark Luo Zheng received from the Heart Flow Sword Sect was a small medallion with syllables recorded on it. It would only appear if one chanted it. He Chi had not expected it to appear so easily.
Things like soul marks were common knowledge to these elite disciples. If it was someone else who asked such a childish question, the elites of Mount Taixiu would probably laugh at them.
However, the person who asked this question was Luo Zheng. Naturally, they didn't dare to answer, but they couldn't help but mutter in their hearts.
After the disciples of Taixiu Mountain received their soul tags, they retreated to the side. It was Taiyi Mountain's turn again.
After everyone from the Taiyi Mountain Sect received their soul crystals, Gao Qizheng led them forward and cupped his hands at He Chi. "Lord He Chi, please give half of our Heart Flow Sword Sect's soul crystals to Luo Zheng."
Soul crystals were so rare that even direct descendants like Ling Shuang and Xu Youwei valued them greatly. Gao Qizheng's sudden request surprised He Chi. He asked in return, "Are you sure?"
"Back then, when we wanted to persuade Luo Zheng to fight, we already had such an agreement," Gao Qizheng said seriously.
Gao Qizheng and the others had also contributed a lot to Mo Yijian's victory in the previous Seven Mountains Trial. However, it was completely different this time. It was almost as if Luo Zheng was carrying the entire Heart Flow Sword Sect on his shoulders. Even if they gave all of it to Luo Zheng, he would be convinced, let alone half of it.
"Since that's the case, I'll do it." He Chi nodded and made some slight changes to the soul mark on his finger.
Then, Gao Qizheng and the others stretched out their palms one by one and gently touched He Chi's palm.
When it was Luo Zheng's turn, He Chi changed the soul mark on his palm again. After patting Luo Zheng's hand, the soul mark was left on his palm.
"Although we don't have many soul crystals stored in the Heavenly Palace, the Seven Mountains Trial provided far more than any other trial. You've taken almost half of it all by yourself … Hehe, use these soul crystals well!" He Chi laughed.
Whether it was the people from Mount Taixiu or Mount Taiyi, they all looked envious when they heard this. Absorbing so many soul crystals would probably bring about a qualitative leap to one's soul!
After everyone received the soul crystals, they had no intention of leaving.
At this moment, He Chi took out three longswords from his Sumeru Ring. "These three Nirvana Realm treasures are awarded to all of you in my name."
The three longswords in He Chi's hand were first-rate, second-rate, and third-rate Nirvana Realm treasures.
The conditions to create a Nirvana Realm treasure were extremely harsh. Even these elites mostly had Mystique Venerable Grade treasures.
He Chi distributed the third-rate and second-rate Nirvana Realm treasures to Mount Taixiu and Mount Taiyi. As for the last longsword, it was pitch-black from the hilt to the blade. On the pitch-black blade, there were faint patterns of birds.
"This is the first-rate Nirvana Realm treasure created by Feng Shi!" Luo Zheng stared at the black sword and was slightly moved.
"This Phoenix Seal Sword has been with me for many years. I've offered it to you for this Seven Mountains Trial." He Chi stroked the blade several times and handed it to Gao Qizheng.
Gao Qizheng did not hesitate and threw it to Luo Zheng.
"Luo Zheng again!" Ling Shuang chuckled. "Gao Qizheng, you paid a hefty price to invite Luo Zheng!"
Gao Qizheng scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled. "Looks like our foresight is quite accurate, haha …"
For these elites of the Heart Flow Sword Sect, they were not only competing for rewards but more importantly for glory. To be able to keep the first place of the Seven Mountains Trial for two consecutive sessions in the Heart Flow Sword Sect was an unprecedented feat on Mount Taiyi.
Qiu Yinhe watched as Luo Zheng gently stroked the Phoenix Seal Sword and felt a little strange. It would be normal for other people to value a Nirvana Realm treasure so much, but Luo Zheng had a Connate Realm treasure in his hands.
After He Chi gave out the rewards, everyone could leave the cave on their own. There was a feast on the top of the mountain, which Lingxi and the others were naturally in charge of.
Just as everyone was going back the way they came, He Chi called out to Luo Zheng and Feng Ge.
Feng Ge frowned slightly. With her status, even if she wanted to leave, He Chi and the others would not dare to make things difficult for her. Moreover, she knew why He Chi had asked her to stay.
However, Feng Ge was also curious as to how Luo Zheng could comprehend the [True Comprehension Chapter], and seemed to have comprehended more than her, so she simply stayed where she was.
In the blink of an eye, there were only six people left in the originally bustling cave.
Qiu Yinhe waved his finger and the boulders flew up from all directions. At the same time, all the formations on them began to flicker and gather around the metal mountain.
"The talisman formations on these boulders were all modified by the Imperial Sword Seal, but even if I personally did it, it would still be inferior to Her Highness Feng Ge. This old man is indeed curious, so I'll take the liberty to ask, did His Majesty make a breakthrough?"
Luo Zheng agreed with Qiu Yinhe's words. This was similar to his conjecture.
