Mystery Descends: My Exchanges Are Not Equal

The familiar mechanical voice sounded in Wang Teng's ears...

[Reward for completing the second phase of the bounty: Congratulations! You've earned 1000 points of Free Attribute Value!]

[Reward for completing the second phase of the bounty: Congratulations! You've earned an Orange Legendary Synthesis Hammer!]

[Reward for completing the second phase of the bounty: Congratulations! You've earned the Land Title Scroll of Moon Exploration Ancient Town!]

[Reward for completing the second phase of the bounty: Congratulations! You've earned a trace of Hongmeng Qi.]

[Reward for completing the second phase of the bounty: Congratulations! You've earned two opportunities for random Talent Upgrade.]

"Buzz~!"

Immediately, the sky trembled.

One after another, milky white beams of light descended upon Wang Teng.

In the blink of an eye, his Free Attribute Value increased by 1000 points.

Immediately, his talent also began to undergo a transformation.

[Talent Upgrade Successful! Your Light Talent has been upgraded from C-level to B-level, and you've awakened Light Divine Intent!]

[Talent Upgrade Successful! Your Wood Talent has been upgraded from B-level to A-level, and you've awakened the Descent of the Wood Emperor!]

Wang Teng was overjoyed!

In just this moment, he had gained another A-level talent.

Up to now, within his Nine Talent Systems, the elements of Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, and Darkness had all reached the A-level tier.

Thus, he took another significant step forward toward synthesizing the SSS Level Master of Chaos Talent.

"Buzz~!"

At this moment, another milky white beam of light descended from the sky.

An orange Synthesis Hammer slowly descended along the beam of light.

Then came a Jade Bottle containing Hongmeng Qi.

Lastly, the Land Title Scroll of Moon Exploration Ancient Town.

These three reward items were all top grade, with immense usefulness.

Especially that bottle of Hongmeng Qi, which filled Wang Teng with delight.

However, he did not rush to examine it but put it away first.

Once he dealt with the most urgent matters at hand, he would then research it.

Thinking of this, he took out the Land Title Scroll of Moon Exploration Ancient Town.

"It's time!"

Wang Teng muttered to himself, pricking his finger to let blood.

A moment later, a drop of Blood Pearl fell toward the Land Title Scroll...

At the same time, at the distant Headquarters of the Eight Clans.

Within a secret chamber, an oil lamp was lit, emanating a faint, dim light.

Inside the room, three figures swayed slightly under the lamplight.

At this moment, Gu Yuan sat in the foremost position.

Xiao Li sat to his right, and an elderly man with a face full of wrinkles and white hair sat to his left.

The white-haired elder had his eyes slightly squinted, his aura deep as an abyss, giving an unfathomable feeling.

He was the Supreme Elder of Pan Gate, ruling over the Dou Qi Continent, above the Eight Clans.

The Pan Gate was once the true ruler of the Dou Qi Continent.

This time, to deal with Wang Teng, Gu Yuan had invited him out of seclusion.

"Xiao Li, how's the personnel gathering?"

Gu Yuan asked nonchalantly.

In handling Wang Teng's matter, he had been busy up to now, even inviting a Supreme Elder of Pan Gate.

It showed how much importance he placed on Wang Teng.

"Clan Leader Gu Yuan, we've already sent the notifications and are calling back all the disciples from outside. Once all forces have gathered, they'll head to the Hun Race Tribe and then use the Teleportation Array to reach Moon Exploration Ancient Town!"

Xiao Li reported respectfully.

Gu Yuan nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this.

Then he looked towards the white-haired elder.

"Elder Wu, you'll lead the disciples of the Eight Clans. I must stay at the headquarters. Today, the Wu Race from the southern Celestial Profound Continent repeatedly trespassed into the territory of our Eight Clans on Dou Qi Continent to seize resources. I need to remain here to handle it."

The white-haired elder nodded slightly, "Rest assured! I will lead the disciples of the Eight Clans and handle the matters of Heaven-Reaching Lake. Speaking of, as one of the Seven Major Hunting Forces, the Wu Race frequently rivals us on Dou Qi Continent over resources, it's just too excessive."

Gu Yuan sighed, "Alas~! In the Seven Major Hunting Forces, our Dou Qi Continent has always been relatively weak. The Wu Race takes advantage of this, always trying to gain from us. They haven't yet realized a great looming crisis is approaching from the east."

Elder Wu quickly asked, "The east? You mean the challenger who appeared near Heaven-Reaching Lake?"

Gu Yuan nodded, "Indeed, I'm worried about this person. Our conflict with the Wu Race is a minor friction, not a life-and-death enmity, but with the challenger, it's irreconcilable!"

Elder Wu dismissed his concern, "Rest assured! With me in charge, I will surely eliminate this hidden threat."

Xiao Li quickly added, "Clan Leader Gu Yuan, Elder Wu is a powerhouse of the Seventh Heaven. Plus, we have seventeen Profound Tier powerhouses going to Heaven-Reaching Lake. With such strength, even if the opponent is a powerhouse of the Seventh Heaven, they'll barely stand a chance!"

"Besides, that kid's strength is at most at the peak of the Fifth Heaven. With Elder Wu leading the team, we're guaranteed to win."

Hearing this, Gu Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good! The two of you can depart now. Once all personnel have gathered, proceed to Moon Exploration Ancient Town!"

"Yes~! Clan Leader Gu Yuan!"

"I shall take my leave!"

Thus, the meeting ended...

At the same time, on the plaza of Moon Exploration Ancient Town.

Wang Teng had already activated the Land Title Scroll.

"Buzz~!"

At this moment, the Land Title Scroll emitted radiant Spiritual Light!

The entire region of Moon Exploration Ancient Town seemed to sense it, resonating in response.

Finally, the Land Title Scroll transformed into a stream of golden light, surging into Wang Teng's body...
