"Bi Gang, if you have something to say, just say it. Dilly-dallying like this isn't like you."
Saying this, Luo Tianxing led Bi Gang towards the sect.
Hm?
Just as they were about to enter the sect, Bi Gang seemed to sense something. He abruptly looked at Luo Tianxing and asked, "You... the Spirit Crystals maintaining your sect's protecting formation, are they Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals?"
Seeing the other's shocked expression, Luo Tianxing couldn't help revealing a smug look and smiled, "Indeed. What maintains the Sect-Protecting Grand Formation are Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals. You've never seen Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals before, right? I'll give you a few later."
"Crazy!"
"Have you gone mad? How many years have we hung around (Original term: 混迹 - hùn jì) the Heavenly Dao Battlefield? Have we ever encountered Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals?"
"Clearly, low-grade Spirit Crystals are enough to support the Sect-Protecting Grand Formation! How could you use Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals? Do you know the true value of Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals?"
Seeing his furious old friend, Luo Tianxing was also taken aback. So what if he used Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals to maintain the Sect-Protecting Grand Formation? Was it necessary to react like this?
Besides, Ye Feng casually gave him a hundred million. He wasn't lacking them at all!
"Look! These two small pagodas are extremely powerful defensive-type treasures! Each small pagoda can withstand one Heavenly Dao Thunder Tribulation! If I wanted, I could rely on these two small pagodas right now to withstand two more Heavenly Dao Thunder Tribulations. Then I would reach the level of withstanding seven Heavenly Dao Thunder Tribulations! Only two more tribulations away from ascending to the Upper Realm!"
"Such powerful treasures, yet I only spent just over three million Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals."
As Bi Gang finished speaking, two small golden pagodas materialized in his hands.
Hm?
However, Luo Tianxing frowned upon hearing this. Looking at the excited Bi Gang, he said, "Bi Gang, where in this world are there treasures capable of blocking Heavenly Dao Thunder Tribulations? That's simply impossible!"
"You know bullshit!"
"Do you know there's a special item in the Heavenly Dao Battlefield called the Heavenly Dao Token? With the Heavenly Dao Token, one can enter a mysterious Heavenly Dao City! There, as long as you have Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals, you're the boss! Even experts at the Peak of the ninth level Tribulation Crossing Realm who have withstood nine Heavenly Dao Thunder Tribulations have to bow and scrape to serve you!"
Stare!
Hearing this, Luo Tianxing simply couldn't believe his ears!
He had also ventured in the Heavenly Dao Battlefield for countless years, but he had never heard of a Heavenly Dao Token or Heavenly Dao City! And looking at his old friend's demeanor, it didn't seem like he was joking.
"Which is to say, in that Heavenly Dao City you mentioned, Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals are the universal currency?"
Luo Tianxing remained silent for a long while before finally speaking again.
"Correct! They only recognize Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals there!"
"If you don't have Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals, you can stay there and work. I worked there for thirty whole years just to earn a little over three million Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals."
"Moreover, do you know what I discovered after I came out? I stayed in Heavenly Dao City for thirty years, yet only one second passed in the outside world!"
Hiss!
Hearing this, Luo Tianxing finally couldn't help but suck in a cold breath. Then, thinking of something, he quickly said, "Bi Gang, what are we waiting for then? I'll quickly gather all the Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals, let's hurry to Heavenly Dao City!"
Unimaginable!
Luo Tianxing simply couldn't imagine the existence of a place like Heavenly Dao City, let alone how many treasures beyond his imagination were inside! And relying on the currently remaining ninety million-plus Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals, they could definitely scour the place thoroughly! Wouldn't the Xingji Sect take off directly then?!
"Didn't you hear what I just said?"
"To enter Heavenly Dao City, you must possess a Heavenly Dao Token! I also obtained mine by chance previously."
"This thing... counts as a kind of opportunity."
Saying this, Bi Gang casually asked, "Right, how many Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals do you have here? Where did you get them?"
"What a huge loss!"
"If I had known earlier that Heavenly Dao City was like this, it would have been great if you had come to find me first with the Heavenly Dao Token! I still have over ninety million Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals here!"
Luo Tianxing said with an extremely wry smile.
What use was having Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals now? He still couldn't buy any treasures.
"What!"
However, Bi Gang was so shocked upon hearing this that his mouth fell wide open, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"You don't know, my sect accepted a Divine Magnate disciple. He offered one hundred million Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals right off the bat, saying he has plenty of this stuff, telling me to keep the Sect-Protecting Grand Formation permanently active, and to just ask him when they run out."
Stunned!
Hearing this, Bi Gang was completely dumbfounded. There was such a Divine Magnate disciple?
One hundred million Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals! Those are Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals! Even after he and Luo Tianxing ventured in the Heavenly Dao Battlefield for many years, they had never seen a single Supreme-grade Spirit Crystal!
"You said that Divine Magnate disciple also went to the Heavenly Dao Battlefield?"
"I wonder if he has the opportunity to obtain a Heavenly Dao Token? If he did obtain one, I'm afraid he would truly take off. Who knows how many Supreme-grade Spirit Crystals he actually possesses? It's impossible to imagine how many good things he could bring back."
Finished speaking, Bi Gang and Luo Tianxing even began to fantasize about the scene of Ye Feng entering Heavenly Dao City.
...
Meanwhile, inside the second layer of the Heavenly Dao Battlefield.
Ye Feng searched for over three hours but didn't find any ruins. However, he encountered quite a few Yao Beasts, to the point where he got annoyed with killing them.
"Li Fei, you bastard! Don't let me run into you again, otherwise I definitely won't spare you!"
Can't find ruins! Can't find a Heavenly Dao Token!
Thinking about how he went to Heavenly Dao City, wandered around for most of the day, only to be forcefully teleported out just after topping up his Heavenly Dao Points, he felt furious.
"Brother Ye!"
Speak of the devil!
Just as Ye Feng was cursing and sulking, Li Fei's surprised voice came from not far away.
"What!"
"Only half a day? That's impossible!"
However, when Li Fei heard Ye Feng's complaint, he showed a bewildered expression.
"Brother Ye, listen to my explanation! I really don't know why it was only half a day!"
"Back then, when I discovered those ruins and went inside, I found corpses littered the ground. Only one severely injured and dying person was still alive, and clutched tightly in his hand was precisely the Heavenly Dao Token."
Speaking up to here, Li Fei paused, continuing with some embarrassment, "Then... I used some special methods to trick him into revealing some information about Heavenly Dao City. Afterwards, I killed him directly and took the Heavenly Dao Token."
"Now there are only two possibilities. Either that person lied to me back then, or he himself believed that Heavenly Dao Token could last for one day."
"And he knew a lot about Heavenly Dao City, so it's likely he had been there before. I suspect it's the second possibility: the duration each Heavenly Dao Token can last is different, and one he had obtained previously happened to last for one day, so he assumed all Heavenly Dao Tokens could last for one day."
Listening to Li Fei's clear and logical analysis, Ye Feng couldn't be bothered to think about it anymore. But he felt Li Fei probably wasn't lying to him. Otherwise, upon seeing him just now, he definitely wouldn't have excitedly run towards him immediately, but would have found a place to hide instead.
