Chapter 360: Changing from Bird-Guns to Cannons

The silence in the small woods lasted for a long time before Li Luo and Qin Zhulu finally regained their senses; they both swallowed hard.

"This is... a Gold-Thread White-Eye 【treasure】?!"

Li Luo stared at Lu Qinger and exclaimed, "You're really something, Qinger, to be able to bring a treasure inside from the outside."

This Golden Dragon Dojo was quite peculiar; it seemed that no one entering could bring outside treasures in, so the items Li Luo and the others had brought were merely ordinary resonance tools, and no one possessed any true treasures.

Yet now, Lu Qinger had suddenly pulled out two Gold-Thread White-Eye treasures, and there was no telling how she had managed to bring them in.

Lu Qinger rolled her eyes at Li Luo and said, "I don't have such great ability; I just exchanged these from the Treasure Pool."

Li Luo shook his head and said, "Qinger, you're treating us like outsiders now. Even if we knew you had broken the rules to bring treasures in, we wouldn't go and report you."

Exchanged from the Treasure Pool? What a joke. He hadn't just been there; he had searched the Treasure Pool for so long that he had barely even seen high-grade White-Eye tools, let alone Gold-Thread White-Eye treasures. Furthermore, the exchange price for an ordinary high-grade White-Eye tool already exceeded five hundred Gold Coins, and these two together would cost at least a thousand. Didn't they know how many Gold Coins Lu Qinger had?

How could she possibly have exchanged for them?

Qin Zhulu, standing to the side, nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Lu Qinger said helplessly, "I'm telling the truth. Both of these treasures were exchanged from the Treasure Pool, and besides these two, this one was too... Their exchange price was two hundred Gold Coins each, so I only spent six hundred Gold Coins in total."

She extended her other hand, and resting in her palm was an ice bead emitting a chill; the cold air rose, causing the temperature nearby to begin to drop.

Li Luo and Qin Zhulu looked at each other. Lu Qinger's expression was far too earnest, which made them realize that, given her personality, she was likely not lying.

But... a Gold-Thread White-Eye treasure for two hundred Gold Coins?

Was this wholesale cabbage pricing?

"What is going on here?" Li Luo asked with a frown, also feeling that something was not right.

"I don't know either... I just happened to see a reef mountain in the Treasure Pool and found these three treasures inside," Lu Qinger said.

"Could it be because of that remaining half of the Golden Dragon Qi you have?" Qin Zhulu also asked.

Lu Qinger shook her head to indicate she didn't know.

Li Luo sighed and said, "This trial in the Golden Dragon Dojo is really becoming hard for me to understand."

This kind of service where treasures were delivered to one's doorstep was just a bit too attentive.

"But regardless of the reason, since it's been delivered to our mouths, there's no reason to spit it out." Li Luo stopped being suspicious; whatever the situation was, since they were given, they would accept them. They were about to face a great battle and needed these treasures to boost their combat power.

"That's what I think too," Lu Qinger agreed, then handed the Light Falcon Bow to Li Luo and the Black Obsidian Battle Armor to Qin Zhulu.

"Try them out and see if they fit."

Li Luo couldn't wait to take the Light Falcon Bow. The bow body looked as if it were crafted from white crystal and was covered in peculiar patterns. When the bow was extended, it resembled a falcon spreading its wings. The white bowstring was taut, and as his fingers lightly brushed over it, energy condensed in a subtle, flickering way, accompanied by the faint sound of a falcon's cry.

"A fine bow!"

Li Luo couldn't help but praise it. Just by holding this Light Falcon Bow, he could feel the astonishing power contained within the bow body. Moreover, holding this bow, he could feel the Light resonance energy of heaven and earth seemingly flowing toward him.

The Light resonance energy within his body also became much more active.

Just by picking it up, he could clearly feel the obvious gap between this and the Blue-Silver Bow he had previously assembled from his twin blades.

Between a resonance tool and a treasure, there was indeed a chasm-like distance.

While Li Luo was testing his newly acquired "Light Falcon Bow," Qin Zhulu put on the Black Obsidian Battle Armor. Instantly, his already burly frame became like an iron tower. The black armor shifted with his body, and a dark luster flowed across it, giving one a sense of indestructibility.

Qin Zhulu held the black battle spear he had previously exchanged for, and combined with this set of black armor, his entire presence suddenly became filled with immense pressure.

"Good stuff!"

Qin Zhulu couldn't stop praising it. Although the Black Obsidian Battle Armor was heavy, he was naturally skilled in strength, and this item was a perfect fit for him. With the protection of the Black Obsidian Battle Armor, even if Lin Suo had the strength of the Third Change of the Resonance Transformation Stage, Qin Zhulu believed the opponent wouldn't be able to easily kill him.

When it came time to fight for their lives, he would be able to be even more reckless.

Lu Qinger also smiled as she gently embedded the Thousand-Year Profound Crystal Bead onto the ice-silk glove on her right hand, and the flexible silk covered it firmly.

Hum!

In that instant, deep blue ripples of cold air spread across the glove. That chill made even Li Luo cast a sideways glance; don't look at the fact that Lu Qinger was currently only at the First Pattern of the Pattern-Generating Stage, but the cold air condensed in this palm, if it landed on him, would likely cause significant frostbite.

It seemed that the "Thousand-Year Profound Crystal Bead" provided a considerable boost to her cold energy.

"I think you could get a few more of these 'Ice Beads' to embed in the future. That way, I've even thought of a nickname for you: you could be called... 'Cold Overlord'," Li Luo said.

Lu Qinger glared at him indignantly: "That sounds terrible."

"Or 'Popsicle Maker'!" Li Luo suggested again.

Lu Qinger ignored his teasing and asked, "Are the items easy to handle?"

Li Luo toyed with the Light Falcon Bow, smiled, and nodded, saying, "Very good. Thank you, Qinger. Once we return to the Great Xia, I'll calculate how many Heavenly Gold Coins this Light Falcon Bow is worth and compensate you."

Upon hearing this, Lu Qinger's pretty face immediately stiffened, and she said, "Li Luo, if you talk nonsense again, I'm going to get angry."

Li Luo said helplessly, "A Gold-Thread White-Eye treasure is too valuable."

If the two Gold-Thread treasures he and Qin Zhulu had were placed in the Golden Dragon Treasure House, their total value would be at least five million Heavenly Gold Coins; this was certainly not a small sum.

"Isn't the ultimate goal of you taking these treasures for my sake?"

Lu Qinger directly refuted Li Luo, then glared at Qin Zhulu, who was standing to the side wanting to speak, and scolded, "You shut up too!"

Qin Zhulu was speechless. Li Luo started this, and I haven't even said anything yet; why scold me and not him?

After Lu Qinger finished speaking, she ignored them and turned to walk out of the small woods.

Li Luo looked at the young girl's slender and graceful figure and smiled helplessly. Qin Zhulu asked in a muffled voice, "Are we keeping the items or not?"

Li Luo thought for a moment and said, "Since this is Qinger's intention, we have no choice but to accept it. Later, we will do our best to help her snatch a Golden Dragon Mountain-Worship Token as a return gift... Of course, if you still feel bad about it, you can pay me back later, and I'll use that money to treat Qinger to meals and outings."

Qin Zhulu looked at him and said, "Li Luo, try to act like a decent human being."

Li Luo sighed with regret and then put away the Light Falcon Bow. Qin Zhulu also took off the Black Obsidian Battle Armor and hid it in his space bead; these treasures should only be activated during a major battle to achieve an unexpected effect.

Afterward, the two followed her out of the small woods and suddenly heard a sound like thunder coming from the direction of the distant mountain range.

The noisy voices outside the Treasure Pool were interrupted by this, and one after another, astonished gazes were cast toward the direction of the thunderous sound; that was exactly where the Golden Dragon Mountain Range was located.

And at this moment, above the Golden Dragon Peak, the highest peak of the mountain range, the energy of heaven and earth seemed to form a massive vortex, which rotated slowly, looking truly spectacular.

"This is the precursor to the appearance of the Golden Dragon Mountain-Worship Token!" Lu Qinger looked at this scene and exclaimed in surprise.

Li Luo and Qin Zhulu also looked on with curiosity.

Outside the Treasure Pool, everyone in the area stopped in their tracks, gazing with burning eyes at the energy vortex in the distant sky, where the energy was constantly condensing, as if it were gestating something.

This gestation lasted for about half a stick of incense.

Suddenly, someone exclaimed, and everyone's eyes were fixed on it. Then they saw five streaks of golden light descend from the sky within the energy vortex, finally falling toward the summit of that towering Golden Dragon Peak.

"The Golden Dragon Mountain-Worship Token has appeared!"

"It looks like there are five this time!"

"Go, go!"

"......"

Outside the Treasure Pool, the atmosphere instantly boiled over. The next moment, one figure after another set off, speeding toward the Golden Dragon Mountain Range.

"Five Golden Dragon Mountain-Worship Tokens."

Li Luo also gazed at this scene, then let out a heavy breath and turned his eyes toward Lu Qinger and Qin Zhulu.

"The good show is finally starting; let's get ready to move too."

"This time there is only one goal: beat Lin Suo's dog head in and snatch a Golden Dragon Mountain-Worship Token!"
