Chapter 64: Four Divine Artifacts! Is Long Xiao Dead or Alive?! (15,000 Words) (Part 5)
Including Ji Mengjun, no one came to inquire.
One day later, Ji Si arrived at Gu Ting Royal City.
He and Zhao Xing, King Shenluo, and Ye Yuxong agreed to meet at Ji Mengjun's residence.
Upon receiving the order, the three immediately headed to Ji Mengjun's place.
When Zhao Xing stepped into Ji Mengjun's palace, he felt momentarily disoriented.
It seemed as if a brilliant star lit up in front of him.
The figure ahead came closer under the starlight, becoming clear from vague.
She wore her hair high in clouds, with a few strands of pearls and jade, swaying gracefully.
Ji Mengjun was dressed in a gauzy cloud-like gown.
Yet Zhao Xing seemed to see all the world's beauty on her, every move imbued with a mesmerizing Dao Rhythm.
When his gaze met Ji Mengjun's, it felt like an electric shock, causing the main soul within the Grassman to tremble.
However, once the figure became completely clear, this feeling quickly vanished.
This was because Zhao Xing's Divine Soul was strong and he recovered quickly, and because Ji Mengjun soon restrained her Dao Rhythm.
Upon a second glance, she was no different from an ordinary person.
"Greetings, Lord Ji." Zhao Xing cupped his hands.
"Duke Divine Might, no need for formalities." Ji Mengjun raised her jade hand gently, her voice very gentle.
Zhao Xing then saluted to Ji Si beside Ji Mengjun: "Greetings, Lord Ji."
"Zhao Xing, I assume Bright Moon Prefecture Master and King Shenluo have already told you their intention for finding you." Ji Si inquired.
"Yes." Zhao Xing nodded.
"Have you found any place in the Royal City that stirred your heart, or seen anything or anyone strange?"
What Ji Si referred to were the common feelings high-ranking individuals have towards treasures.
Zhao Xing shook his head: "No."
He answered so quickly, Ye Yuxong and King Shenluo seemed a bit disappointed.
But the next moment, Zhao Xing said: "The two Divine Artifacts you mentioned are already in my hands."
Ye Yuxong: "(⊙_⊙)"
King Shenluo: "(⊙_⊙)"
Even Ji Mengjun's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.
Ji Si was taken aback: "Is this true?"
Zhao Xing nodded: "It is true."
Since he was a First-Rank Official coming in, there was no need to hide it.
Because this order definitely required the approval of King Heavenly Destiny.
Ji Si smiled: "Very well, follow me."
Zhao Xing said: "Yes."
He followed Ji Si into the secret chamber arranged by Ji Mengjun.
King Shenluo and Ye Yuxong had to wait in the hall.
Inside the secret chamber.
Ji Si got straight to the point: "Zhao Xing, the two Divine Artifacts you obtained, what grade are they, and what are their functions, have you found out?"
Zhao Xing pondered: "One is my Earth Advantage Sect's peerless Divine Artifact, the Kunyuan Divine Hoe. The second one, I suspect, is related to the Dragon Clan."
Ji Si's expression shook: "Shennong Hoe?!"
Upon hearing this name, he was somewhat unsettled.
Earth God Artifact!
How could he not know the power of an Earth God Artifact?
"It is said that the Kunyuan Divine Hoe can dig through the Nineteen State Earth Veins. Whatever is underground, any barrier, or Earth Palace, will be collapsed by it."
"You, you actually obtained it."
Ji Si looked at Zhao Xing, his eyes filled with light, Zhao Xing seemed born of destiny, a blessing sent by heaven to the Kunyuan Underground Palace!
"In the unseen, fate is indeed destined." Ji Si sighed.
Zhao Xing wrote the Self Sect's "Two Classics Collection" and "Material Law", wrote the Heavenly Time Sect's "Three Yin and Three Yang Six Qi Great Cycle Theory", and now he found a Divine Artifact back for the Earth Advantage Sect.
It feels as if he truly is like a Minister of Agriculture Saint Son from Ancient Times, with great Qi Fortune, capable of leading his sect to prosperity.
"Unfortunately, we cannot get out now, otherwise, I would immediately send you back."
At the current stage of the Dragon Court, entry is allowed but exit is prohibited.
In the subsequent closed stage, exit is allowed but entry is prohibited.
Of course, Ji Si didn't know, Zhao Xing could indeed leave; he could summon the Ancient Yin Warship with the Shang Tang Order, traversing the Yin Yang realms, exiting from the Yin Realm.
"Zhao Xing, have you researched the Dragon Clan's Divine Artifact?" Ji Si quickly adjusted his emotions and continued to ask.
Mr. Zhao immediately understood.
Ji Si was actually asking if he was willing to let other formidable people study the Dragon Clan's Divine Artifact.
After all, to maximize the court's interests, the artifact should be given to someone who knows better among the First-class strong people to use.
Zhao Xing nodded: "Yes, you already know that the special aspect of my Derivation God Decision requires top-level soul magic to decipher."
After Ji Si learned the secret, Zhao Xing's Sealing Technique became ineffective on Ji Si and could be spoken out.
This reason was not just an excuse.
The Decree Chapter of the Dragon Emperor's Law isn't something ordinary people can unlock; besides needing to enter specific places, one must possess a powerful Divine Thought to sustain it.
Ji Si nodded: "Very well."
After a pause, he continued: "Where you obtained the Divine Artifact, were there other treasures?"
"Yes." Zhao Xing said: "I suspect there are quite a few treasures inside."
"What?!" Ji Si was stunned.
He originally asked casually and had no expectations.
Acquiring two Divine Artifacts at once, and Zhao Xing seemed uninjured, meaning he had extraordinarily good fortune.
Artifacts in abundance? He dared not imagine it.
Little did he know that Zhao Xing obtained four items! Not just two!
But the latter two, Ji Si, having entered, did not know about them.
Even if he were outside, it would be hard to know.
Because neither King Heavenly Destiny nor others got any information.
Mainly, all factions sent Fate Officers to the scene, and interference ensued.
The two Divine Artifacts Zhao Xing got later did not appear in the Creation Plate and Heavenly Mechanism Pillar calculations.
"Listen to me, that day I came to the Royal City..."
Zhao Xing recounted the incident of Dragon King 'Yin Xiu'.
"I unintentionally saw this method of tribute in an ancient tome at Fuming Temple," he said.
