Chapter 226 Encountering a Robbery Team on the Way Home
"Is that all?"
Seeing Xu Qiankun suppress all the Hundred-Armed Azure Apes with a wave of his hand, both the Flame Wind Ancestor and the Thunder Ancestor widened their eyes.
So relaxing, so incredibly relaxing.
They even doubted whether Xu Qiankun had already reached an invincible level of strength.
Within the Dark Holy Realm, God Emperors are divided into several tiers.
The weakest are of course these late-stage God Emperor cultivators or ordinary Hunyuan bloodline cultivators at the semi-Hunyuan level.
Above them are the orthodox semi-primordial cultivators or bloodline cultivators who have fused with high-grade primordial life materials.
Above that are the powerhouses who can be called the pinnacle. These powerhouses either have fused with the bloodline of a high-level Chaos Origin life form, or have deduced the Great Dao of Fusion to the semi-Chaos Origin level, and also have extremely powerful secret treasures to assist them. Their strength far exceeds that of those who have achieved perfect enlightenment.
Above the pinnacle are invincible powerhouses.
An invincible expert can deal with at least dozens of peak experts at the same time. He is invincible in the Dark Holy Realm. Once his strength reaches the invincible level, Yuan and the others will send experts to guide him.
"Continue the hunt"
Xu Qiankun casually killed all the hundred-armed apes, collected their corpses, and continued hunting with the Flame Wind Ancestor and the Thunder Ancestor.
The number of naturally occurring Chaos Origin Lifeforms in the Dark Holy Realm is extremely large. Xu Qiankun actively searched for them and found more than 600 in less than a thousand years. Most of them were at least in the late stage of the initial Chaos Origin Lifeform, and there were even three of them at the super-limit level.
Unfortunately, the difference in strength was too obvious. Even without using his supernatural powers, the transcendent-level Chaos Origin Lifeform made it difficult for him to fight to his heart's content, and it did not serve much purpose in tempering him.
This did enrich his combat experience considerably.
"The only ones who can put pressure on me are the prisoners from Hunyuan."
The Prisoner of Chaos is a high-level Chaos life form that has been completely sealed. Even so, the Prisoner of Chaos is still extremely powerful.
"If I could get a few hundred Hunyuan prisoners to practice with, my strength would definitely improve rapidly."
Xu Qiankun thought to himself, "Unfortunately, this is just wishful thinking. Unless he can find Yuan and ask him for help, that would be more likely."
"This harvest was quite substantial. Let's return to Chengfeng City first and exchange it for some resources."
Having hunted for over a thousand years, Xu Qiankun felt he had gained a great deal, enough to acquire many resources useful for his cultivation.
Moreover, these resources can be used not only by himself, but also by his family and disciples, especially Luo Feng, whose talent has been fully revealed since he advanced to the True God realm.
In just over a million epochs of the primordial universe, Luo Feng had already advanced to the level of an Eternal True God, and his foundation was incredibly solid.
He is now studying the laws of chaos and is also trying to understand the fundamental principles of life.
With such a disciple, Xu Qiankun would naturally want to nurture him well. With Luo Feng's talent, he might become the Lord of Hunyuan even earlier than him, and then he would have a powerful backer.
Given Luo Feng's personality, he doesn't need to worry about not getting a return on his efforts, nor does he need to worry about being discarded after using someone else's tools.
"Phew, finally I can go back."
Upon hearing Xu Qiankun say that he was going to return to Chengfeng City, both Thunder Ancestor and Flame Wind Ancestor breathed a sigh of relief. They had followed Xu Qiankun for over a thousand years, and although Xu Qiankun had shielded them from all the risks, they had still been on tenterhooks.
After all, the further away from Chengfeng City they are, the more numerous and powerful the naturally occurring Chaos Origin beings they will encounter.
Although Xu Qiankun blocked them all, who can say for sure that if Xu Qiankun made a mistake, they would both perish here.
Although there is still a clone left in the original world of my hometown, it will not really perish, but the loss is still heartbreaking enough.
"Let's go, let's go back first."
Ancestor Yanfeng hurriedly took out a flying boat, carrying Xu Qiankun and Ancestor Leiting into the void, heading towards Chengfeng City.
Inside the flying boat, Xu Qiankun began sorting through the corpses of the Hunyuan life forms he had obtained. Regardless of the type of Hunyuan life form, he would keep one of each corpse and transfer it to his clone on the Qiankun Continent through the Primordial World.
Although he would no longer easily use the Qiankun Great World to refine Hunyuan life forms, using the corpses and remains of Hunyuan life forms to comprehend the Great Dao was still a good choice and had great reference value.
After leaving behind the corpses he needed, Xu Qiankun looked into his storage space and found 565 enormous corpses remaining.
"Of the Hunyuan beings I killed this time, I will keep some for myself. I will take the remaining 565 to the Hunyuan Palace to sell. I will keep all the merits I earn, and I will give you 10% of the Hunyuan Crystals. Do you have any objections?"
Xu Qiankun looked at the Thunder Ancestor and the Flame Wind Ancestor and said.
"Give us ten percent of the Chaos Origin Crystals?"
Both of them showed expressions of shock upon hearing this.
The Thunder Ancestor quickly waved his hand, "Lord Qiankun, this is inappropriate."
We only guided the way, and we did nothing, yet we are given a share. We feel ashamed to accept it.
"Yes, Lord Qiankun, this is far too much."
Both of them showed expressions of shock upon hearing this.
The Thunder Ancestor quickly waved his hand, "Lord Qiankun, this is inappropriate. We only led the way and did nothing, yet we are asked to take a share. We feel ashamed to accept it."
"Yes, Lord Qiankun, this is far too much."
Yanfeng Ancestor also hurriedly spoke up.
They all knew the value of the Hunyuan beings that Xu Qiankun had killed.
According to the acquisition prices of the Hunyuan Palace, the corpse of a low-level Hunyuan life form in the early stage of God Emperor is worth about 1 million Hunyuan crystals, in the middle stage of God Emperor it is worth about 10 million Hunyuan crystals, in the late stage of God Emperor it is worth 100 million Hunyuan crystals, in the perfect stage of God Emperor it is worth 1000 billion Hunyuan crystals, and in the super-limit level it is worth more than 100 billion Hunyuan crystals.
Of the 565 Hunyuan life forms that Xu Qiankun took out, only 3 were in the early stage, 5 were in the middle stage, and the remaining 319 were in the late stage and 214 were at the perfect stage.
That adds up to 245.953 billion Hunyuan Crystals.
One percent of that is 24.5953 billion, which is almost equal to their entire net worth.
Don't be fooled by the fact that naturally occurring Chaos Origin Lifeforms are everywhere in the Dark Holy Realm and are so expensive, making it seem like you can easily obtain a large amount of Chaos Origin Crystals by simply hunting some of them.
In reality, even for the powerful figures of the Dark Holy Realm, the number of hunts they can actually conduct is pitifully small, even if they form hunting teams.
There's no other reason than that the risks are too great. If they encounter a powerful Hunyuan life form, it would be normal for the entire army to be wiped out.
In other words, the God Emperors who came from the Origin World were not afraid of death, and they ventured out time and time again, accumulating wealth little by little.
"It's alright," Xu Qiankun said with a smile. "This is my first time hunting Hunyuan lifeforms, and I don't know anything about it. I should thank you all for your help."
"As long as you don't mind it being too little."
"Not too little, not too little"
"Thunder Ancestor said quickly."
"That's too much."
The progenitor of Yanfeng followed the Dao.
Seeing Xu Qiankun's insistence, the two of them declined verbally, but were quite excited inside. With such a large sum of money in their account, they could buy a lot of cultivation resources, and perhaps their strength could be improved again.
"This is the benefit of clinging to someone's coattails. You don't do anything, you just run errands, and you earn over 10 billion Hunyuan Crystals in a thousand years."
The flying boat traversed the void, gradually approaching Chengfeng City.
Both the Thunder Ancestor and the Flame Wind Ancestor were still in a state of excitement and lacked the necessary vigilance.
Of course, it's also possible that with Xu Qiankun in charge, they knew they could easily overcome any dangers, so they weren't too concerned.
bang
The airship crashed violently into a barrier.
"not good"
The expressions of the Flame Wind Ancestor and the Thunder Ancestor changed drastically, while Xu Qiankun opened his 'Piercing Heavenly Eye' and looked out of the flying boat, immediately seeing an array.
This formation is quite mysterious, with secret patterns of the void constantly flashing, sealing off the surrounding space and forming an extremely powerful spatial prison.
Outside the prison, endless lightning surged, and five powerful figures stood amidst the lightning, their bodies enveloped in it, like five thunder gods.
"It's a raiding party from the Thunder Lord Palace."
The Thunder Ancestor and the Flame Wind Ancestor had spent a considerable amount of time in Chengfeng City, and it had only been a few Origin World Reincarnation Eras since they left. For a God Emperor, that was not a long time. They immediately recognized the identities of these powerful figures, and their expressions turned extremely ugly.
"My lord, it's a raiding party from the Thunder Lord Palace," Ancestor Yanfeng hurriedly explained to Xu Qiankun. "The Thunder Lord Palace has three Palace Masters, all of whom are top-tier experts. Below the three Palace Masters are several thousand members, all of whom are at least at the Perfect Enlightenment level. They love to raid."
The Thunder Ancestor volunteered, saying, "My lord, I will go and try to negotiate first, to see if we can resolve this matter by paying a small price."
Go ahead.
Xu Qiankun thought for a moment and nodded slightly.
Although he wanted to resolve the matter easily, he was new to the area and didn't want to make enemies everywhere. It would be better to resolve it peacefully.
"Yes," Thunder Ancestor said as he stepped onto the deck of the flying boat and bowed to the front. "Thunder greets all the esteemed figures of the Thunder Lord Palace."
"Thunder God Emperor"
An eight-armed cultivator from the Thunder Lord Palace, covered in black scales and with an ugly face, looked at the Thunder Ancestor and clearly recognized his identity.
"Greetings, Lord Gentaku"
The Thunder Ancestor clearly recognized the ugly, black-scaled cultivator, and even bowed in respect.
There's no way around it; if you're weaker than someone, you naturally have to be more polite, otherwise you might offend a stronger person without even realizing it.
Thunder Ancestor said, "Lord Yuantuo, my friend and I can only hunt in the outer areas and don't have much to gain. We are willing to offer the corpse of a late-stage Chaotic Origin Lifeform in exchange for your permission to pass."
As soon as the Thunder Ancestor finished speaking, before the Source God Emperor could even reply, a giant eyeball-like being covered in eyeballs sneered, "We set up an ambush here and finally managed to capture you. You still want to leave? What a pipe dream!"
