Chapter 1265: Ten Thousand Desire Rahu Fruit and Meteor Dragon Pillar (First update, requesting all)
"Star Core!"
Li Zhangsheng had obtained a Low-grade Star Core before, so he recognized it at a glance; after all, the energy properties of a Star Core are unique and very easy to identify.
Compared to the Low-grade Star Core he had obtained previously, this Star Core was significantly larger in volume and emitted a more brilliant radiance, clearly exceeding the category of a Low-grade Star Core.
However, there was still some gap compared to a Superior Quality Star Core.
According to Li Zhangsheng's estimation, this was a Mid-grade Star Core; if his Ten-Grade Star Palace Lotus Platform wanted to advance to Eleven-grade, a Mid-grade Star Core was one of the main materials required.
In addition to the Mid-grade Star Core, five portions of World Power and one portion of Star Dome Jade Liquid were also needed.
Ever since the Gate of Light and Darkness advanced to a Langhuan Supreme Treasure, the speed at which he obtained World Power had far exceeded the past; in just two or three months, Li Zhangsheng had gathered no less than ten portions of World Power.
As for the Star Dome Jade Liquid, he was afraid he would only be able to find the Forgotten Strait lord, the four-clawed black dragon Ao Qin.
Li Zhangsheng had once inquired about this with the Northland Dragon King Ao Run; Ao Qin was his cousin once removed. Upon learning that the Star Dome Jade Liquid Li Zhangsheng needed was in Ao Qin's hands, Ao Run gave him a handwritten letter and a token. As for whether it would be useful, he would have to see Ao Qin first to know.
Li Zhangsheng was more inclined to use trade for the Star Dome Jade Liquid; after all, Ao Qin was Ao Run's nephew, and with the North Sea Dragon King as a backer, it was not good to offend him, so it was best to resolve it peacefully.
After putting away the Mid-grade Star Core, Li Zhangsheng looked at the remaining two World Wonders, which were a fruit and a piece of ore, respectively.
This was an ink-black fruit containing a large amount of extremely pure Demonic Qi. The nature of its Demonic Qi was quite special; just by taking one look at it, one would have an uncontrollable desire to eat it.
Li Zhangsheng did not dare to eat this fruit. Under Pushikashi's introduction, he knew that this fruit was a specialty of the Abyss Third Layer—the Ten Thousand Desire Rahu Fruit.
It is rumored that in the Abyss Third Layer stands a demonic tree thousands of feet tall, covered in faces expressing various negative emotions such as pain, sorrow, and fear from all kinds of creatures. It grows and bears fruit by absorbing the negative emotions of various creatures, and the Ten Thousand Desire Rahu Fruit is the product of this demonic tree.
From the feedback of his Mental Power, the energy fluctuation of the Ten Thousand Desire Rahu Fruit was already close to a Mid-grade World Wonder.
It is rumored that once one consumes the Ten Thousand Desire Rahu Fruit, one will fall into an ocean of desire and be unable to extricate oneself. Theoretically, it has an effect on Ninth-Rank Demon Tamers or Emperor Rank Spirit Beasts, though it is unknown how effective it is.
Li Zhangsheng put away the Ten Thousand Desire Rahu Fruit; if he ever encountered an unbeatable enemy, there might be a time when it would be useful.
The final piece of ore possessed four colors: earth yellow, blue, red, and cyan.
Judging from the energy fluctuations it emitted, this piece of ore was composed of the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind. What was strange was that these four elements not only did not conflict but instead gave a feeling of harmonious coexistence.
This was also the first time Li Zhangsheng had seen such ore, and there was no record of this type of ore in the memories of Stronger individuals like the Baisheng King, the Qiankun King, or the Sun Banner True Monarch.
One thing was certain: it did not come from the Fairy World.
Under these circumstances, Li Zhangsheng looked at the several Demon Commanders who had submitted to him.
Pushikashi and the other Demon Commanders racked their brains but could not figure out what it was, so they could only brace themselves and answer: "We do not know either, but what is certain is that this is definitely not an object from the Abyss; it is possible it came from the Main Material Plane."
Li Zhangsheng did not say much and solemnly put away this four-colored ore.
Because from the feedback of his Mental Power, this four-colored ore, which was only the size of a washbasin, emitted energy fluctuations that actually reached the Zifu Qizhen level.
He had obtained quite a few Strange Treasures and spiritual plants of the Zifu Qizhen level, but this was the first time he had obtained raw materials of this level.
For a Grandmaster of Artifact Refining, such high-level raw materials were hard to come by; perhaps there would be a chance to refine a Strange Treasure of the Langhuan Supreme Treasure level or a Divine Artifact-level Treasure.
However, the prerequisite was to learn the information and properties of this four-colored ore; otherwise, it would be difficult to bring its effects to the extreme.
Soon, led by Pushikashi and the other Demon Commanders, Li Zhangsheng began to enter the depths of the ocean and saw a deep, dark, super-giant castle; this was Bernama's castle.
Given Bernama's size, the scale of the castle went without saying.
Without any surprises, Li Zhangsheng began to search this castle.
However, Bernama's treasures were basically carried on his person; there were very few left in the castle, and they were all treasures of massive volume.
Li Zhangsheng looked at the nine Meteor Dragon Pillars in front of him. These Meteor Dragon Pillars were a full thousand meters high, and the souls of giant dragons with twisted faces appeared and disappeared on them.
The number of giant dragon souls in each Meteor Dragon Pillar was no less than three digits, and crucially, Li Zhangsheng also saw the dragon soul of a Force Dragon.
The Force Dragon, along with the Time Dragon and the Rainbow Dragon, belongs to the three great legendary dragon species. Its strength is weaker than the Time Dragon and comparable to the Rainbow Dragon, falling into the category of Divine Beasts.
Even if only the dragon soul remained, it still possessed immense value.
However, including the Force Dragon's soul, the giant dragon souls on the nine Meteor Dragon Pillars had lost all consciousness, leaving only their primal instincts.
If nothing unexpected happened, Bernama likely frequently processed and abused them, which was why this situation occurred.
The only effect of these nine Meteor Dragon Pillars was to amuse Bernama, and they could often be used to intimidate subordinates and increase Bernama's status.
"It can actually significantly enhance the rank of the Dragon-Slaying Platform!"
Li Zhangsheng tossed out the Dragon-Slaying Platform, and it landed in the great hall.
The next moment, Li Zhangsheng pointed at the nearest Meteor Dragon Pillar.
The entire thousand-meter-high Meteor Dragon Pillar broke off at the base and shattered. The dragon souls bound within the Meteor Dragon Pillar regained their freedom; they followed their instincts and subconsciously wanted to fly out of the hall.
However, at this very moment, the Dragon-Slaying Platform erupted with blood-colored radiance, and all the dragon souls were as if frozen, completely unable to escape the hall.
In an instant, the dozen or so dragon souls that had fallen to the back were dragged down and forcibly merged into the Dragon-Slaying Platform.
As if it had eaten a powerful tonic, the Dragon-Slaying Platform's might greatly increased, and it immediately dragged and devoured more giant dragon souls.
From the feedback of his Mental Power, the light spot representing the Dragon-Slaying Platform improved extremely rapidly, soon reaching the Low-grade World Wonder level, and it was still continuing to improve.
As long as there were enough dragon souls, Li Zhangsheng believed that this growth-type special Strange Treasure had a great possibility of growing into a Langhuan Supreme Treasure.
Li Zhangsheng continued to destroy the Meteor Dragon Pillars, letting the Dragon-Slaying Platform continue to improve.
As its rank improved, the Dragon-Slaying Platform's digestion speed became faster; in less than a quarter of an hour, it had completely absorbed the dragon souls in the second Meteor Dragon Pillar.
After devouring the dragon souls of the third Meteor Dragon Pillar, the Dragon-Slaying Platform went a step further and reached the Mid-grade World Wonder level.
Li Zhangsheng felt more and more expectant; there were six Meteor Dragon Pillars left, and the Dragon-Slaying Platform definitely had a great hope of becoming a Zifu Qizhen.
