Chapter 662: The Emperor Who Cannot Vent His Anger (First Update, seeking everything)

~12 min read 2,212 words

When Li Changsheng thought of this, he couldn't help but take out the Artifact Refining Canon and flip through it casually, discovering that it contained relevant techniques for shrinking materials and storing planes.

"Could this necklace have been refined by the King of Hundred Refinements?"

It was no wonder Li Changsheng would think this way; achieving these two techniques was not easy. Shrinking materials seemed simple, but it seriously violated the law of conservation of matter, because not only did the volume shrink, but the weight also shrank accordingly.

To master this technique, one must become a Grandmaster of Artifact Refining.

As for storing planes, besides complex techniques, one must also possess a sufficient cultivation realm.

With Li Changsheng's current strength, unless he advanced to a King, he would be unable to store even the smallest semi-plane.

Even possessing a Demon King-level space-type Demon Pet would not work, because the storage space must be created in one go; any slight mistake could lead to the collapse of the space.

In other words, to master these two techniques, the prerequisites were the status of a Grandmaster of Artifact Refining and a King, and in history, there were only a few people who possessed both identities simultaneously, including the King of Hundred Refinements.

Judging from the fact that this Artifact Refining Canon recorded these two techniques, the possibility of it being the King of Hundred Refinements was extremely high.

"It's a pity there is no artifact refining illustrated guide from the King of Hundred Refinements!"

Li Changsheng thought to himself with regret; if he possessed the King of Hundred Refinements' artifact refining illustrated guide, he would be able to deduce the effects of this necklace instead of fumbling around on his own.

However, judging from the two treasure-grade materials, the Dangkang tusks and the Hollow Weeping Willow, this necklace could not only store living beings, but it likely also possessed the ability to accelerate plant growth or cause plants to have a bountiful harvest.

The tusks of a Dangkang could be said to be the most essential material of a Dangkang, especially since these were the four tusks of a Dangkang; it was normal for them to possess the functions of acceleration and harvest.

In addition, Li Changsheng carefully observed the batch of spirit plants planted by the suspected 'Masked Man' Xiao Chen; these spirit plants were all growing vigorously, and there wasn't a single sickly one among them.

Even Li Changsheng's dedicated Spirit Planter, Xiaoguai, would find it difficult to achieve such a situation, because human energy is sometimes exhausted, and it is difficult to carefully tend to so many spirit plants.

After all, Xiaoguai is not a machine; if energy is severely dispersed, it is normal for omissions to occur.

Besides this, Li Changsheng did not see any traces of care on these spirit plants; it seemed that ever since these spirit plants were planted, the 'Masked Man' Xiao Chen had never paid any attention to them.

Connecting this to the changes in strength he saw in Xiao Chen twice, the other party had advanced from a beginner to the Second Rank in just over two months, which was even faster than Li Changsheng had been back then.

Li Changsheng had reason to suspect that it was precisely by relying on the abilities of the Dangkang Necklace that Xiao Chen was able to harvest a batch of spirit plants in a short time, and with sufficient financial resources, his progress was so fast.

At this time, Li Changsheng called Kailan and the Chi Dragon over and said, "Kailan, Chi Dragon, I am going to enter the necklace space; you help me keep watch and see if there are any changes!"

The Dangkang Necklace had another ability, which was that the host could enter the space within the necklace; it could not only be used to plant spirit plants, but it could also serve as a shelter at critical moments. It was precisely because of this ability that Li Changsheng's first attempt to attack Xiao Chen ended in failure.

"Mm!"

Kailan nodded obediently and, together with the Chi Dragon, stared intently at Li Changsheng.

Among Li Changsheng's Demon Pets, Kailan had the highest realm and strength and was the most meticulous; although the Chi Dragon was a bit weaker, it possessed the space-type attribute.

As Li Changsheng's consciousness stirred, his figure suddenly disappeared, just like Xiao Chen had back then.

Amidst a bout of dizziness, Li Changsheng appeared in the space of the Dangkang Necklace.

He gently took a breath of the air in the necklace space, then immediately closed his mouth and nose, quickly mobilizing his Mental Power to carefully check every part of his body, especially his lungs.

After a long while, Li Changsheng confirmed that there were no abnormalities in his body, and only then did he re-mobilize his Mental Power to analyze whether there were any harmful substances in the air here.

Not only that, Li Changsheng also performed some actions; perhaps because it was attached to the Fairy World, the gravity here was the same as in the Fairy World.

When Li Changsheng escaped into the necklace space, in Kailan's eyes, Li Changsheng suddenly disappeared, including the Dangkang Necklace; no matter how Kailan checked, it was to no avail.

Kailan looked at the Chi Dragon and asked, "Chi Dragon, did you feel anything?"

Roar~

The Chi Dragon began to communicate with Kailan; according to the Chi Dragon, when Li Changsheng disappeared, the Dangkang Necklace produced intense spatial fluctuations and escaped into another space.

Relying on its powerful spatial talent, the Chi Dragon could barely sense the general direction of the necklace space, which was the place where Li Changsheng disappeared.

This meant that if Li Changsheng came out of the necklace space, he would still be in the same place, and his position would not change.

Because of Li Changsheng, the Chi Dragon naturally did not attempt to use spatial abilities to forcibly break open the necklace space; otherwise, if it were broken open, Li Changsheng would be in danger.

Not long after, Li Changsheng reappeared in the bedroom, and Kailan hurriedly told him about her and the Chi Dragon's feelings.

A smile hung on Li Changsheng's face; the air in the Dangkang Necklace space not only lacked harmful substances, but it was also filled with a rather special energy.

According to Li Changsheng's analysis, this energy could promote the growth of spirit plants and likely also possessed the effect of a bountiful harvest.

It is rumored that the Divine Beast known as Dangkang is born with mastery over the laws of heaven and earth—harvest; it was not too surprising that the four tusks of a Dangkang possessed a harvest effect.

The so-called harvest naturally means a good harvest and high yield; for example, a Red Fire Dragon Scale Tree generally can only produce one fruit at a time, but if it were planted here, there would be a chance to produce two fruits at once.

Of course, the harvest effect also has limitations, which is commonly known as a ceiling; it is almost impossible for a Red Fire Dragon Scale Tree to produce three or more fruits at the same time.

Li Changsheng tried a few more times and discovered that there was no so-called cooldown time for escaping into the necklace space, and the flow of time between the two was also the same.

There was no way around it; the necklace space was, after all, attached to the Fairy World and was not forged with time-related materials, so the flow of time was naturally equivalent to the attached Fairy World.

For Li Changsheng, the ability to escape into the necklace space to save his life was relatively mediocre.

This was mainly related to Li Changsheng's strength; unless multiple Pseudo-Kings joined forces or he faced a King directly, there was simply no need to escape into the necklace space.

It was just that who knew if the enemy possessed means to break through space; if it were forcibly broken open, the necklace space might collapse directly.

If one escaped into the necklace space in front of a King, it would be no different from seeking death; with the necklace space's weak spatial barriers, and the fact that it could not change positions like a Secret Realm, a King could lock onto it and tear it open with a casual move.

However, this could still serve as a last resort.

The only bad thing was that, for some reason, the Dangkang Necklace could not be refined, and naturally, it could not be stored in the Consciousness Sea.

After a preliminary summary, Li Changsheng had confirmed that the Dangkang Necklace possessed the following three functions.

One, it could store items, including living beings.

Two, it possessed the effect of causing spirit plants to have a bountiful harvest.

Three, it could be used as a temporary shelter.

As for whether it could accelerate the growth speed of spirit plants, this would still require a period of observation.

Li Changsheng had already decided that after the National Tournament, he would transplant all the spirit plants planted in the backyard of the Number One Courtyard into the necklace space, along with Xiaoguai, the imprisoned Di Zhuo and the Purple Firmament Leopard-Lin Beast, as well as a Top-Grade Quasi-God Sprite Egg that had not yet hatched.

The value of this Dangkang Necklace could not be measured by value; in Li Changsheng's view, just these three functions alone made the value of the Dangkang Necklace higher than ordinary World Wonders.

Li Changsheng put on the Dangkang Necklace and thought for a moment before hiding it under his collar to avoid having its material seen through, which would cause unnecessary trouble.

Soon, Li Changsheng began to study Liu Xuguang's information to prepare for tomorrow's match.

Knowing oneself and the enemy ensures victory in every battle; furthermore, Liu Xuguang's strength was stronger than Dou Yuanbin's, so being careful would not lead to mistakes, avoiding the possibility of capsizing in the gutter.

The next morning, Yecheng Arena!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

The audience was still packed to capacity, the atmosphere even more heated than yesterday, as if they were about to tear the roof off.

Outside the arena, tens of thousands of spectators lingered, unwilling to leave; they watched the big screen outside, waiting for the results of the Finals.

Unlike the Group Stage, this time Dou Zhangsheng came personally to preside over the event, unlike previous years when the 'Butterfly King' Luo Qingning or the 'Flame King' Qin Mingqing would preside.

Unlike last time, Dou Zhangsheng's expression was very unpleasant; anyone would be, hearing that in full view of the public, their most valued son had been 'bullied,' not only having his head shaved but also losing a full four main Demon Pets, simply losing all face for the Imperial Family.

Even though Li Zhangsheng had not violated the National Tournament rules, Dou Zhangsheng was still very unhappy in his heart, especially since Dou Yuanbin's mother, Imperial Concubine Xiao, had been constantly whispering in his ear last night.

Dou Zhangsheng looked from time to time at Li Zhangsheng, who was not far away, not knowing what he was thinking.

This time, Li Zhangsheng did not stay in the lounge; he stood not far from the competition field, and standing beside him were the Principal and Vice Principal, Xu Wenhua and Zhang Kaishuo, who had come specifically for this.

They came, firstly, to cheer for Li Zhangsheng and Ning Bizhen, and secondly, to hold the line for Li Zhangsheng.

Upon learning that Li Zhangsheng had wiped out four of Dou Yuanbin's main Demon Pets during the match, the higher-ups of Yuanling Academy, fearing Li Zhangsheng might suffer, had Xu Wenhua and Zhang Kaishuo rush over, terrified that the Emperor Dou Zhangsheng might act against Li Zhangsheng.

Dou Zhangsheng was, after all, a New King and likely did not possess a Saint Grade Spirit Pet; although still powerful, if Li Zhangsheng, Ning Bizhen, Xu Wenhua, and Zhang Kaishuo joined forces, it was very likely that Dou Zhangsheng would be the one to suffer.

Langya Kingdom had a total of thirty-one Pseudo-Kings; after Dou Zhangsheng advanced to King, Li Zhangsheng believed he could lock in first place, Ning Bizhen and Xu Wenhua were also in the top five, and with the addition of the tag-along Zhang Kaishuo, they were quite confident in dealing with a King who lacked a Saint Grade Spirit Pet.

Of course, as the Emperor of Langya Kingdom, Dou Zhangsheng also had a large number of helpers, but if the four of them joined forces, the chances of retreating unscathed were high.

If Li Zhangsheng possessed more than six Demon King level Demon Pets, he could even go head-to-head with this New King, Dou Zhangsheng.

A King's greatest advantage was the Secret Realm, which could significantly increase the combat power of Demon Pets, but the quality of Li Zhangsheng's Demon Pets was higher, which could roughly offset the advantage of the Secret Realm.

Seeing Xu Wenhua and Zhang Kaishuo present, Dou Zhangsheng could only sit on the imperial throne and sulk.
