Chapter 233: Shock! Monsters Have Awakened
After the old lady’s primordial spirit dissipated, Qin Chuan returned to the main hall and walked towards the purple-gold Nine Dragons Throne.
According to the old lady’s memories, there was a secret compartment in the dragon head of the armrest. It was a storage space about twenty feet wide.
Inside the secret compartment was the Heavenly Note Sect’s greatest treasure. It was an ancient zither called the Seven Extremes Zither.
According to the system’s appraisal, the Seven Perfections Zither was a stage-six magical artifact.
This surprised Qin Chuan.
In the Merchant Shop, stage-six magical artifacts cost over 100 million points.
Every stage-six magical artifact had the power to destroy heaven and earth.
It was no wonder that the Seven Extremes Zither was the sect’s ultimate treasure.
Thus, Qin Chuan dripped a drop of blood essence onto the zither, circulating the True Formula of Heavenly Note to refine it.
In next to no time, this magical artifact acknowledged him as its master.
All stage-six magical artifacts had artifact spirits. It was the same for the Seven Extremes Zither.
However, due to the battle, the artifact spirit of the Seven Extremes Zither was injured and in a deep slumber.
Generally speaking, if an artifact spirit was injured, it could recover on its own as long as it wasn’t fatal. After that, it would just take a long time.
With the help of the outside world, it would definitely be faster.
Now that the artifact spirit was injured, the power of the Seven Extremes Zither was greatly reduced.
But even so, it was not something ordinary magical artifacts could compare to.
Qin Chuan looked through the Merchant Shop. There was a tool for repairing artifact spirits. It was called the Soul Essence Stone.
The Soul Essence Stone cost as much as a supreme-grade spirit stone, 10,000 points.
Qin Chuan asked the system how many Soul Essence Stones he needed to repair the artifact of the Seven Extremes Zither.
The system would not answer for free, requiring 100 points as consultation fees.
Qin Chuan gritted his teeth and spent 100 points.
The system replied, “As the Seven Extreme Zither’s artifact spirit is severely injured, it requires 100 Soul Essence Stones to recover.”
After hearing this number, Qin Chuan was dumbfounded.
100 pieces of Soul Essence Stones cost 1 million points. This was a huge sum of money. Unfortunately, he would not be able to repair it for the time being.
“Artifact spirit! Artifact spirit! You have to bear with it for a while.
“When I earn enough points, I will definitely restore you.”
Qin Chuan stroked the zither as if it was a living thing.
A faint glow appeared on the surface of the Seven Extremes Zither, as it let out a melodious sound, as though it was responding to Qin Chuan’s words.
When he saw this, a smile appeared on Qin Chuan’s face.
He stored the Seven Extremes Zither into the system space and used the Earth Burrowing Technique to go underground.
There were three spiritual meridians deep underground. This was the only valuable item left in this land of legacy.
Now that he had obtained the legacy and other resources, he could not waste these three spiritual meridians.
Qin Chuan observed for a moment. These three spiritual meridians weren’t considered high level, but they weren’t low either. They were between the second and third level.
After all, most of the spiritual meridians had been contaminated by the Desolate Beasts. He was already satisfied that they could be preserved.
Qin Chuan originally intended to transplant these three spiritual meridians into the system sect, so he consulted the system.
However, the system told him that spiritual meridians were not allowed to be transplanted into the sect. It did not tell him the exact reason, only that it wasn’t allowed.
Because of this, Qin Chuan didn’t know three spiritual meridians became a problem.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Chuan thought of a solution.
He thought that he could transplant these three spiritual meridians into the outside world.
He had already planned to revive the spiritual energy in the world to create an environment suitable for cultivation, and the meridians in these lands of legacy could be put to good use.
After all, spiritual meridians were made of spiritual energy and spirit stones.
They gave out far less spiritual energy than spirit trees, but as long as there were enough spiritual meridians, it would make up for the difference.
From the memories he had received, there were a total of 32 lands of legacy.
If he were to collect all the spiritual meridians in these 32 grounds, Qin Chuan estimated that it would be equivalent to two spirit trees.
A seed of a spirit tree cost one billion points. Cultivating a seed into a spirit tree required even more points.
Therefore, he had to get the remaining 31 lands of legacy grounds.
In addition, on top of spiritual meridians, there were also all kinds of items in the lands, such as spirit stones, spirit pills, magical artifacts, and so on.
More importantly, there was the legacy.
Qin Chuan thought that if he could obtain all the legacies of these places, he would immediately become an immortal!
Thinking of this, Qin Chuan immediately stored the three spiritual meridians into the system space.
After taking care of everything, Qin Chuan returned to the ground and stood proudly in the air. Then, he bowed in the direction of the main hall of the Heavenly Note Sect.
After all, he had received the other party’s legacy, so he had to show some respect.
Suddenly, a strange sound came from the sky.
Qin Chuan frowned. With a thought, he spread out his divine consciousness.
Under the observation of his divine consciousness, Desolate Beasts crawled through the holes on the surface of the crystal ball.
Qin Chuan wasn’t too surprised to see them.
Desolate Beasts were extremely sensitive to spiritual energy. They could sense even the slightest trace of it from thousands of miles away.
Qin Chuan fell into deep thought. When he had planned to deal with the crystal ball, he had taken the Desolate Beasts into consideration.
Thus, while setting up a soundproofing formation, he set up an array formation to isolate spiritual energy.
However, he did not expect them to sense it so quickly. He had underestimated their senses.
There were many of them, but Qin Chuan was confident that he would leave safely.
Desolate Beasts weren’t that scary. Their combat strength wasn’t high.
But, everyone was afraid of the Desolate Beast’s aura.
Once an object with a spirit was tainted by the desolate aura, it would be corroded endlessly until destroyed.
Now, with the arrival of the Desolate Beasts, the desolate aura formed a storm that swept through the land of legacy.
In an instant, those magnificent mountains and rivers collapsed at speed visible to the naked eye.
When he saw this, Qin Chuan waved his hand, and the hundreds and thousands of Desolate Beasts nearby exploded into a mist of blood.
When a cultivator reached the Nascent Soul Stage, they would have grasped a certain amount of the laws of heaven and earth and manipulated space.
Currently, Qin Chuan’s cultivation was at the seventh class of the Nascent Soul realm. Because of the legacy, he didn’t need to cultivate and could already proficiently utilize the laws of heaven and earth.
Very quickly, Qin Chuan eliminated all the Desolate Beasts that had charged in.
However, the desolate aura had already spread throughout the land of legacy.
The Desolate Aura was like a cancerous cell. Once it spread, it would be extremely difficult to eliminate.
Although it had no effect on Qin Chuan, to the mountains, rivers, flora, and fauna of the grounds, it was undoubtedly a calamity.
Qin Chuan also felt helpless. He had no way to eradicate this desolate aura.
There was no choice. Qin Chuan could only watch helplessly as the area was mercilessly destroyed.
Not long after, Qin Chuan left and returned outside.
Presently, millions of Desolate Beast were gathered around the five-colored crystal ball.
When they saw Qin Chuan, they flocked over.
“Scram!” Qin Chuan roared in rage. Using the sound waves from the True Formula of Heavenly Note, he instantly created a vacuum, killing countless Desolate Beasts.
Then, Qin Chuan left.
After exiting the spatial barrier, the magical communication artifact on his body suddenly lit up.
“Brother, where are you?”
“Sect Master!”
This voice came from Zhao Xuanxuan, Wang Zhixing, and others.
He heard the urgency in their voices and felt this heart drop.
Qin Chuan immediately asked, “Xuanxuan, what’s wrong? What happened?”
Zhao Xuanxuan shouted, “Brother, those monsters are awake!”
“What?” Qin Chuan was shocked. “It has only been a year and a half, why are they awake?”
Qin Chuan did not expect the monsters to awaken so early.
However, it didn’t matter. Now that he had obtained the legacy, his strength had greatly increased. His cultivation was at the seventh class of the Nascent Soul realm, so dealing with these monsters wasn’t a problem.
As he was thinking, Zhao Xuanxuan suddenly said, “Brother, what do you mean it’s only been a year and a half? It’s been more than a year since you last returned to the sect.
“I tried to contact you many times during your absence, but there was no response. I thought you had disappeared. ”
At this moment, Qin Chuan was confused. He felt at a loss.
What does she mean more than a year? Is this some sort of mistake?
Qin Chuan didn’t understand. I spent less than two hours in the land of legacy. How did more than a year pass?
Wait, the land of legacy…
Could it be… could it be that the flow of time there is different from the outside world?
Good lord!
Qin Chuan instantly understood.
It was no wonder those Desolate Beast had barged in so quickly. It was not because his array formation was too weak but because the flow of time outside was much faster than in the land of legacy.
Fortunately, I didn’t stay for long. If I had stayed for a few minutes more, the world would have been conquered by the monsters by the time I came out.
At this thought, Qin Chuan broke out in a cold sweat.
Then, he immediately summoned the system and returned to the sect.
