Chapter 418: with translation of chapter title

418. Chapter 418 Iron Bucket Defense!

Fortunately, in an instant, he had already thought of an excuse.

"Leader, to be frank, I feel breaking through the acupoint isn't difficult; as long as the Primordial Force is sufficient, I can locate the acupoint, and then breaking through will be a matter of course, natural." Jiang Cheng said calmly.

Although it was achieved with the help of the Panel, making it a matter of course and natural.

But you say, isn't it a matter of course and natural? So it's not a lie; even though the few people present have Spiritual Power far above his, they can't detect any problem.

Chu Feng and the three of them looked at each other.

They also indeed felt that Jiang Cheng was telling the truth.

"So, that's why you broke through from Level 3 Original Force Warrior to Grandmaster in just a few months?" Qin Lao suddenly understood a bit.

"Yeah, if the acupoint locations were easier to find, the time would be even shorter." Jiang Cheng looked at the Calming Spirit Pearl, "So I feel I don't really need this treasure."

"Hiss…"

Qin Lao sucked in a breath of cold air.

He actually thought the time taken was long?

Shen Xinlian didn't know what to say, always feeling this guy was showing off, but hearing his words saying he didn't want this Calming Spirit Pearl, so if it really was showing off, bearing it wouldn't be a problem.

"Is that so?"

Chu Feng, upon hearing this, was also somewhat surprised, then solemnly said: "The gap between Grandmasters is far beyond your imagination; being able to break through from Level 3 Original Force Warrior to Grandmaster at this speed doesn't mean you'll maintain this speed later, so I think you should still think it over carefully."

"Leader!"

Shen Xinlian was speechless.

Everyone else doesn't want it, yet you keep saying that; what if you actually make them tempted? "Yeah, Jiang Xiao Brother, this treasure is truly extraordinary; you, think it over again, think it clearly, then decide, it's not too late." Qin Lao hesitated a moment, then advised, he also saw that the Leader had made up his mind, otherwise he wouldn't have said it to this extent.

"Leader, I understand your good intentions, but I've already thought it through clearly; at least for now, I'm smoothly impacting the acupoint, and this item, if it were in your hands, Leader, would have an even greater effect." Jiang Cheng laughed.

"You…"

Chu Feng froze.

He could feel that Jiang Cheng was speaking the truth.

But precisely because of that, he was moved.

"Leader, since he said that, let's do as he wishes; if later he encounters problems in his cultivation, you can also lend it to him for use, isn't that how the Gu Family operates?" Shen Xinlian said.

"Alright, let's do that."

Chu Feng looked at Jiang Cheng, "If you later want to use it, you can tell me; at that time, I'll also stand by to guard your Dharma; besides, the remaining four treasures, you can freely choose two, as a small compensation from me."

"Leader, you're being polite; if it weren't for you, I'd still be trapped in the Inner City District, wholeheartedly serving as a Refining Alchemy tool, how could I possibly be here now picking spoils of war?"

Jiang Cheng first shook his head, then nodded, "However, since the Leader said that, I won't be polite and will pick one more piece."

"You little brat."

Chu Feng instantly couldn't help laughing and crying.

Indeed, Jiang Cheng isn't unwilling to take benefits; he just knows his limits.

But I have to say, this result makes him very satisfied; with this Seven-grade Treasure, he'd be fine giving all the rest to Jiang Cheng. But doing so would be unfair to Qin Lao and Shen Xinlian, after all they also participated in this operation; even if everyone's relationship is good, rewards and punishments should still be clear, right?

"The remaining four treasures are here."

He put away the Calming Spirit Pearl and placed the remaining items one by one on the table.

The two best items are both Sixth-grade elementary treasures.

One of them is shaped like a pagoda with three levels, named the Heaven-Stabilizing Tower; it can block attacks from Seventh-level and below Grandmasters, of course, provided the Primordial Force Crystal inside is sufficient.

According to Chu Feng's introduction, when the Heaven-Stabilizing Tower is fully activated, it consumes over ten billion Force Light Points per second; ordinary Primordial Force Crystals simply don't have that many Force Light Points, only natural Primordial Force Crystal mines do.

So, even someone who possesses this treasure might not be able to afford to use it.

Fortunately, inside there are ten Primordial Force Crystals, their color deep and profound; each crystal contains about a hundred billion Force Light Points, using one or two minutes poses no problem.

Another is a palm-sized mirror, used to defend against Spiritual Power attacks, named the Frost Chill Mirror, also a Sixth-grade elementary treasure.

It's similar to the previously mentioned Heaven-Stabilizing Tower.

After hearing the introduction of these two items, Jiang Cheng secretly clicked his tongue.

He knew Gu Zhanglin was hard to kill, but he didn't expect it to be this difficult! Physical and Spiritual dual defense, comparable to an iron bucket.

Likewise, Gu Zhangjun's treasures must also start at Sixth-grade elementary, possibly even Sixth-grade intermediate or higher.

The third item, which Jiang Cheng had heard of before, is the Azure Jade Coiled Dragon Pendant; although it's only Fifth-grade elementary, because it can speed up Spiritual Power recovery, equivalent to increasing cultivation speed, its price isn't much cheaper than the two Sixth-grade elementary treasures.

As for the last item, it is a talisman treasure named the Thunder Dragon Talisman, a Fifth-grade intermediate treasure, capable of inflicting lethal damage on Fifth-level and below Grandmasters!

Compared to ordinary offensive treasures, talisman treasures don't require much proficiency; after use, they can unleash their maximum power, and unlike disposable talismans, they can be used multiple times, and if damaged, they can be repaired.

Besides that, there's nothing else.

Jiang Cheng was a bit disappointed, having expected one or two weapons to fill his gap, but there weren't any; thinking about it, who goes out shopping carrying weapons?

Moreover, weapon usage also depends on proficiency; psychic weapons are even more so, far inferior to talismans, which are simple and easy to use.

"Young brother, you can choose two of these four treasures; you don't need to rush, you can go back and think it over slowly, even making the choice after reaching the Base is fine."

Chu Feng laughed.

As for the remaining two items, they go to Qin Lao and Shen Xinlian.

For Shen Xinlian, aside from the Calming Spirit Pearl, the remaining items aren't particularly special, but who doesn't have a few close people? Taking them back as gifts for them is also quite nice.

For Qin Lao, any item would be fine, since he is only a Second-level Original Force Grandmaster.

Jiang Cheng nodded, his gaze sweeping over the four treasures one by one.

At present, there's still some distance to the Base; anything could happen along the way, so if possible, it's best to decide now.

In that case, simply choosing two Sixth-grade elementary treasures would suffice; they have the highest value and can also protect oneself and one's family.
