"What!? The 5 powers of the Hall of Heroic Spirits? " The Azure Dragon's mayor stared blankly for a moment, then almost jumped up. Even with his high self-restraint, he almost couldn't help but curse out loud: "What kind of joke is this! This definitely won't do! The Hall of Heroic Spirits is a sacred place, it is the holy land in the hearts of all martial artists on Forgotten Continent! The powers that exist there all come from the peerless experts that once shook the heavens, every power is waiting for the most suitable genius to appear! How can I just casually take them away, not to mention that I don't have this kind of authority, even if I did, I definitely wouldn't agree to it. Otherwise, it would be going against the wishes of those senior experts, it would be disrespectful and blasphemous to them! "
"En, what the mayor said is indeed correct." Ling Chen said with a smile, "Every type of power is waiting for the most suitable genius to appear. Moreover, it's up to them to decide who they belong to. Indeed, Lord Mayor can't decide. In that case, if they are willing to leave with me, will the City Lord not interfere? "
The Azure Dragon's mayor was immediately speechless. These few days, he had already heard from the Hall of Heroic Spirits' guardian everything that happened in the Hall of Heroic Spirits that day. He knew that when Ling Chen appeared, all of the power pillars released an unprecedentedly intense light, and even took the initiative to flicker with light. If Ling Chen entered the Hall of Heroic Spirits again, those powers would also take the initiative to attach themselves, and then Ling Chen could casually open any pillar and obtain the power scroll within … Sealing the power into the scroll, this was the most effective and convenient way to pass on the power. After obtaining the power scroll, however Ling Chen used it would be his freedom.
"Of course, this is also completely out of the question!" The Azure Dragon's mayor shook his head: "Ling Tian, you have indeed obtained the recognition of all of the powers, but, the Hall of Heroic Spirits has an unchangeable rule … Those who accept the Hall of Heroic Spirits' trial can only enter the Hall of Heroic Spirits once in their lifetime, if they are lucky enough to obtain the recognition of one of the powers, they must use the scroll on the spot, and absolutely cannot take it out. If there is a situation where they obtain the recognition of more than one power, they can only choose one! These rules have never been broken, and absolutely cannot be changed! "
"In this world, there are no rules that cannot be changed." Ling Chen slowly said: "The Hall of Heroic Souls is within the Azure Dragon City, and you are also the Azure Dragon City's City Lord. I believe that you completely have the authority to change this rule … All it needs is just a word from you."
"Absolutely not! This was blasphemy against the sanctity of the Heroic Spirits Temple! If I really did that, where would the sanctity and dignity of the Hall of Heroic Spirits be! "The Azure Dragon's City Lord still resolutely refused, his voice resolute, leaving no room for negotiation.
Ling Chen shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly, "Since that's the case … Alright then, City Lord, goodbye."
After saying that, Ling Chen put away the Phyllostachys Nigra, turned around and left.
The Azure Dragon City Governor was stunned. He never expected that Ling Chen would leave just like that. If it was any other matter, he might have calmed down a bit and let Ling Chen leave, to see who was tougher than who … After all, if Ling Chen didn't hand over the Phyllostachys Nigra to the Azure Dragon City Governor, not only would he not get any benefits, he would also be punished for the mission. If the Azure Dragon City Governor stubbornly refused, he would have no choice but to compromise. But this matter concerned the life of the Azure Dragon City Governor's son, he simply couldn't calm down … If this Ling Tian really hardened his heart to not hand over the Phyllostachys Nigra to him, then his son's life would be gone!
"Wait!!" The Azure Dragon City Governor hurriedly stepped forward and stepped in front of Ling Chen to stop him. He frowned and said: "Ling Tian, you've already received the inheritance of the War God's power. The other pillars of the Hall of Heroic Spirits can't compare to the power left behind by the War God. What do you still want that power for?"
Ling Chen leisurely said: "There's no need for the City Governor to worry about this. I naturally have my own thoughts."
The Azure Dragon City Governor calmed himself down and said with furrowed brows: "If it's another condition, I'll do my best to agree to it. This one really won't do."
"Then goodbye!" Ling Chen flicked his finger and walked around the Azure Dragon City Governor's body towards the door.
"Stop … I'll give you one million gold! Listen carefully, it's one million! "
"No need."
"… Then I'll give you a level 20 Faerie equipment!! Celestial grade equipment is a priceless treasure that can allow you to stand far above others among the players! "
It was impossible for Ling Chen not to be moved by a level 20 Faerie equipment. Even though he had two Faerie Treasures in his hands, it was still extremely difficult to obtain a higher grade Faerie Treasure. Facing this huge temptation, Ling Chen's face was indifferent and he didn't show any interest. He casually waved his hand: "City Governor, I still have things to do so I'll be leaving first. Right now, I'm only interested in the power of the Hall of Heroic Souls. If the City Governor feels that your son's life isn't even worth a so-called 'principle', then I have nothing to say. Goodbye. "
"Wait!!"
Not letting Ling Chen down, the Azure Dragon City Governor once again stopped him. He gritted his teeth and finally said: "First tell me, what do you want that power for?"
"To let the people around me use it. I just simply hope that they can have a higher starting point than others."
Hearing this answer, the Azure Dragon City Governor's face slightly relaxed. He furrowed his brows and said: "If that's the case … I can allow you to enter the Hall of Heroic Souls again … but you can only take one type of power! Only one! "
Ling Chen was already laughing in his heart. His previous request of taking five types of power was indeed too ridiculous. He never thought that he would succeed, but it was just a starting point for him to bargain. Being able to get one of them had already met his expectations. The power of the Hall of Heroic Souls was left behind by the peerless experts of the Forgotten Continent. On average, it would take a hundred years for someone to be lucky enough to obtain one. Its value simply couldn't be measured with money. Being able to obtain one after the War God's inheritance was already a huge gain.
However, although he was already satisfied in his heart, he still had to fight for it a bit more. He very calmly said: "One? Sir City Governor, this is too far from my request … Forget it, five is indeed a bit too difficult for the City Governor. How about letting me take away three types of power from the Hall of Heroic Souls? This is already a huge step back for me. "
"Two! This is my bottom line. If this still isn't enough, even if I can't get Phyllostachys Nigra, I will never compromise again. "The Azure Dragon City Governor forcefully clenched his teeth and said with a dark face.
Ling Chen almost laughed out loud on the spot.
If the Azure Dragon City Governor had flatly refused, then he wouldn't have persisted and directly went to the Hall of Heroic Souls to take another type of power and leave. However, he didn't think that after casually fighting for it without any hope, the Azure Dragon City Governor had already taken a step back … It seems that asking for five was indeed the right choice! If he had asked for three or two, then at most he could have gotten one.
Ling Chen forcefully suppressed the excitement in his heart, but his face pretended to be troubled and hesitant. After 10 seconds or so, he sighed and said: "Alright, since it's like this, I won't make things difficult for the City Governor anymore. Just two."
After saying that, Ling Chen took out Phyllostachys Nigra and directly handed it to the Azure Dragon City Governor.
Ling Chen's "compromise" made the Azure Dragon City Governor secretly heave a sigh of relief. With Phyllostachys Nigra in his hands, the sullenness he had previously held back disappeared completely. He carefully held Phyllostachys Nigra in his hands and looked at Ling Chen: "You just made such an outrageous request, and now you're giving it to me like this. Aren't you afraid that I'll go back on my word?"
"As the dignified Azure Dragon City Governor, it's impossible for him to be the kind of villain who goes back on his word. What I said before must have angered the City Governor. Striving for the maximum benefit is everyone's instinct, I hope the City Governor won't take offense. Actually, if the City Governor insists on not agreeing to me, before I step out of this hall, I will still turn around and hand Phyllostachys Nigra to you. " Ling Chen said with a smile. His words were quite beautiful, but as for who was the real one, only he would know.
The Azure Dragon City Governor fixed his gaze on Ling Chen for a while, then smiled lightly and nodded his head: "Not only is your talent amazing, your strength is immeasurable, and your schemes are not something an ordinary person can compare to. You know what kind of words to say at the right time. What you've fought for was obtained with your own ability, I don't have the qualifications to be angry at you. On the contrary, you've brought Phyllostachys Nigra back, I only have gratitude towards you. You can now go to the Hall of Heroic Spirits to get what you want. As for the guards over there, I'll send a message to them. "
"Ding … You've successfully completed the Hidden Unique Quest 'Find Phyllostachys Nigra', EXP + 5000, Reputation + 100, SP + 100. From now on, minor violations in Azure Dragon City will not be punished. You have the privilege of actively killing people five times a day (players only) in the city without being arrested. Unless your sin value is lower than -50, you won't be arrested after entering Azure Dragon City. Hidden Reward: The Azure Dragon City Governor's favourability towards you has increased, from now on you can ask him for help with matters in Azure Dragon City. Additional Reward: You can go to the Hall of Heroic Spirits at any time to obtain two types of power to be inherited. "
As expected of the Hidden Unique Quest's reward, just the 100 SP was enough to shock him. Ling Chen immediately bid farewell to the Azure Dragon City Governor and went straight to the Hall of Heroic Spirits.
Since the establishment of the Hall of Heroic Spirits, other than the guards and managers, Ling Chen could be said to be the first person to enter the Hall of Heroic Spirits twice. After stepping into the Hall of Heroic Spirits, the first person he saw was still the ice-cold black-clothed guard. The black-clothed man glanced at him and said: "What you want to do, the City Governor has already told me. The power contained in these ten pillars, you can take away any two of them, do as you please. "
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to Ling Chen. He had guarded the Hall of Heroic Spirits for many years, and this was the first time he had encountered such a serious violation of the rules of the Hall of Heroic Spirits. But since it was the Azure Dragon City Governor's order, he couldn't do anything about it.
Ling Chen didn't say anything, and walked towards the ten pillars that carried ten different types of power, all the way to the floor in front of the ten pillars that stood out from the rest. Immediately, just like before, the ten pillars all lit up with the corresponding light, and then started to shine again.
Ling Chen walked over … He didn't walk towards the first pillar to look at the attributes of these powers again, but directly locked onto his target and walked towards the fifth pillar. Which one to choose, he had already thought about it on the way here.
