Chapter 1210: Chapter 521: Opening Treasure Chests—Three Seventh-rank Treasure Boxes, One Eighth-rank Treasure Box! Obtaining the Supreme Treasure!
The methods by which the Heavenly Court treats the Dragon Clan are even more cruel than those it uses upon the Human Race of the Eastern Continent.
The Heavenly Court Immortals and Gods have always regarded dragon flesh as a rare delicacy, devouring it for their own pleasure.
They further take the Dragon Clan as mounts to be driven, caring nothing for the dignity or lives of the dragons.
Recollecting that year when Zhao Feng first stepped into the Dragon Clan, in order to win them over, he did not hesitate to make a pledge, granting the Dragon Clan the same status as the Human Race, helping them escape such a humiliating plight.
Yet!
At that time, the Dragon Clan, whether out of arrogance or out of misgivings, failed to cherish that hard-won opportunity, and silently refused Zhao Feng’s goodwill.
But now.
Nearly a hundred years have already passed.
The present is no longer like the past. Qin now has powerful troops and abundant arms; the national strength rises unceasingly, no longer what it once was.
To Qin, the Dragon Clan has little use.
This time, as the armies move to war, the mercy and promises Zhao Feng once showed have vanished.
Once the Daqin Elite Soldiers breach the East Sea, the Dragon Clan’s fate will plummet straight down; they will no longer enjoy the former promises made to them.
Within the borders of Qin, the Dragon Clan will likely only be reduced to lowly mounts, driven at others’ whim.
Even their dragon flesh will become ordinary fare upon Qin’s dining tables.
Such an ending is the bitter fruit sown when the Dragon Clan failed to cherish their chance back then.
Between Heaven and Earth, it is thus by nature: the weak are meat for the strong!
After speaking with Ying Zheng, Zhao Feng returned to his own secluded cultivation palace, and his heart and spirit immediately sank into the panel.
His gaze first swept over his various Attributes, and finally settled upon the Treasure Boxes gained this time.
"Three Seventh-rank Treasure Boxes, and one Eighth-rank Treasure Box."
Zhao Feng murmured to himself, expectation flickering in his eyes: "This time, may fortune smile on me—let there be a grand eruption."
With that thought.
Zhao Feng bore his anticipation.
"Open all the Treasure Boxes." Zhao Feng issued the command.
"Opening three Seventh-rank Treasure Boxes."
"Congratulations, Host, you have obtained [Twelfth Grade Merit Golden Lotus]."
"Congratulations, Host, you have obtained [Nine-nine Soul Scattering Gourd]."
"Congratulations, Host, you have obtained [Chaos True Fire] seed."
Immediately after.
When the Eighth-rank Treasure Box opened, a prompt once more leapt out upon the panel: "Congratulations, Host, you have obtained the Half-step Innate Treasure [All Heavens Celebration Cloud]."
"Hahaha!"
Seeing what had been opened from these four Treasure Boxes, Zhao Feng could not suppress the wild joy in his heart, and burst into loud laughter: "The Twelfth Grade Merit Golden Lotus has at last fallen into my hands."
"This Golden Lotus ought to have been under the control of the Western Saint Jieyin, yet now it belongs to me."
Within his laughter, Zhao Feng also carried a measure of unrestrained delight.
"Of the five Twelfth Grade Lotus Platforms, I now possess four; only the Red Lotus in Nether River’s hands remains."
A blazing light flickered in Zhao Feng’s eyes; as for that Red Lotus, he did not worry in the least about failing to obtain it.
"Another day, I shall go to Blood Sea and seize the Red Lotus from Nether River’s hand; then I may reconstitute the Chaos Green Lotus of old. If I can grasp this Supreme Treasure, even Saints will not be able to break my defenses!"
"And this All Heavens Celebration Cloud—this is Yuanshi Tianzun’s top-tier Supreme Treasure. Its defensive power far surpasses that of the Twelfth Grade Lotus Platforms."
"Now that it has fallen into my hand, it has all the more increased my Strength!"
Looking upon these Treasures, Zhao Feng was naturally filled with joy.
All these top-tier Supreme Treasures can raise Zhao Feng’s Strength!
Yet at this moment.
In the midst of his extreme excitement, Zhao Feng seemed to think of something; he snapped back to his senses, and a thought that shocked him flashed through his mind.
"What level of Supreme Treasure is this mysterious panel, in the end?"
Zhao Feng’s brows knit tightly, his expression grave, as he pondered in his heart: "It can forcibly seize the Magical Treasures in the hands of Saints and offer them up for my use."
"So it was with the Supreme Treasure formerly held by Lord Lao Zi of the Great Monad, and so it is now with the Magical Treasures of Yuanshi Tianzun and Jieyin Saint."
Thinking to this point.
The more Zhao Feng pondered, the more incredible it seemed; the smile on his face slowly faded, replaced by deep astonishment.
"This kind of godlike ability has already far surpassed the scope of ordinary Supreme Treasures."
"Even those legendary Chaos Spirit Treasures likely could not reach such a degree, could they?"
Zhao Feng could not help but mutter under his breath.
For the first time, he gained a wholly new understanding of this panel that had accompanied him for so long, step by step aiding him, a Mortal, to walk toward might.
"It seems the origin of my panel is by no means ordinary."
With a thoughtful gaze, Zhao Feng silently guessed in his heart: "Could it actually be the legendary Chaos Treasure?"
After thinking for quite some time, Zhao Feng shook his head and temporarily cast these thoughts aside.
After all.
Zhao Feng knew full well that the panel was only beneficial to him, and in no way harmful.
Furthermore, the panel had long since bound itself to his Primordial Spirit; should he meet with misfortune, the panel would likewise vanish.
This point, Zhao Feng understood clearly.
"Enough; when my Strength one day attains the Realm of Primordial Great Luo, perhaps I will be able to discern the panel’s true level."
Zhao Feng thought to himself, "What matters now is to first refine the Supreme Treasures obtained this time and raise my own Strength—that is the key."
With a single movement of his intent, Zhao Feng instantly summoned forth the [Twelfth Grade Merit Golden Lotus], [Nine-nine Soul Scattering Gourd], [Chaos True Fire] seed, and [All Heavens Celebration Cloud].
Above the Daqin Heavenly Palace, in Qin’s core land, the power of the Human Dao loomed like a solid Shield, firmly guarding this place.
Even if a Heavenly Dao Saint were to personally descend, under the concealment of this Human Dao power, he would never perceive the existence of these Supreme Treasures.
Such an environment made Zhao Feng feel utterly at ease in refining Supreme Treasures.
At the same time, above the Heavenly Court, within the Palace of the Polestar.
"Your Majesty, I beg leave to report!"
A man clad in heroic armor strode into the hall, dropped to one knee, bowed his head, and spoke with some trepidation in his voice: "This minister is incompetent, and failed to take down that Demon Monkey."
