Chapter 929: A Thousand Gold for a Single Throw (Second Update, requesting all)

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng solemnly took out the Dangkang Necklace.

In an instant, the Dangkang Necklace turned into a stream of light and entered the Secret Realm.

It was also at this moment that a massive surge of Heaven and Earth Great Power enveloped the Dangkang Necklace.

Soon, the Dangkang Necklace rapidly merged into the Secret Realm, and a piece of land suddenly appeared, landing steadily in the center of the Secret Realm.

Just then, an oval-shaped barrier wrapped around this land to prevent the special abilities of the Dangkang Necklace Space from leaking out.

Suddenly, the Tree of Life, the Xuanqiong Five-Colored Glazed Fruit tree, and the Great Zhou Heavenly Star Fruit Tree all released a vast amount of radiance simultaneously. Their roots began to dig deep into the Secret Realm, and while anchoring the land, waves of energy radiated from their roots, making the Secret Realm even more stable.

Rumble—

Suddenly, from the void at the edge of the Secret Realm, a series of explosions rang out. Endless air currents formed, and countless Earth, Fire Element, Water Attribute, and Wind elements were cast into them, turning into huge whirlpools.

In the Core Space of the Secret Realm, wisps of Heaven and Earth Great Power rushed out and burrowed into the whirlpools. The clear Yang Qi rose to become the sky, and the turbid Yin Qi descended to become the earth. The Secret Realm trembled violently, and subsequently, patches of land sprouted from the edges, causing the area of the Secret Realm to skyrocket.

After more than an hour, the entire Secret Realm finally stabilized, having expanded from its original radius of nearly one thousand li to a full three thousand li.

Li Zhangsheng could only marvel at the power of the Tree of Life; its effects were better than average.

However, for a Secret Realm to advance into a Blessed Land, its area must expand to a radius of ten thousand li, a feat that even many Double-Character Kings have not achieved.

Yet, the Dark Night King Dou Cangqiong possesses a Blessed Land, and Li Zhangsheng suspects that there might be a secret hidden within his Blessed Land.

After the Secret Realm was completely stabilized, Li Zhangsheng released all the Temporary Spirit Pets from several Monster Pet Bags. Since they could be carried by Li Zhangsheng, their quality went without saying; they were either Quasi-Gods or possessed Epic quality.

Among them, the Mingluo Kun, Heluo Fish, and the Epic-quality Heluo Turtle were placed by Li Zhangsheng in the lake near the center of the Secret Realm.

As for the dozens of giant dragons, they entered the belly of a large mountain in the central area of the Secret Realm. When remodeling the semi-plane, Li Zhangsheng had consciously hollowed out the belly of this mountain to serve as a future living space for the dragons.

As for the remaining Temporary Spirit Pets, they lived in the plains and forests, though the newly born Secret Realm lacked vegetation for the time being, so they had to make do.

Besides them, Li Zhangsheng also released all of his Demon Pets.

From the memories of the first Principal, he learned that other people's Demon Pets would not have an effect on the World Wonder being gestated; otherwise, Li Zhangsheng would have brought all his friends and family over.

Furthermore, they must be Quasi-Gods, Demigods, or Divine Beasts; otherwise, even Epic quality would have no effect at all.

These Demon Pets contained Li Zhangsheng's Soul Breath. When they entered the Secret Realm, light spots began to emerge from the Quasi-God and Demigod Demon Pets, flying toward the Core Space and swarming into the ball of light that was gestating.

Among them, the number of light spots released by the Demigods was significantly higher than those from the Quasi-Gods.

After absorbing these light spots, more Heaven and Earth Great Power actively merged into the ball of light, causing it to expand slightly and emit an even more intense brilliance.

It works!

Li Zhangsheng's Mental Power remained in an outward-projecting state; even though the ball of light had not yet been gestated, he could clearly feel the energy fluctuations.

After the Secret Realm's area expanded and stabilized on a large scale, the energy fluctuations of the ball of light reached the peak of a Low Grade World Wonder. After absorbing these light spots, it finally crossed into the ranks of Mid-grade World Wonders.

In other words, even if Li Zhangsheng did nothing, the ball of light would at the very least gestate a Mid-grade World Wonder.

Of course, one should not even think about a Zifu Qizhen; it is impossible to obtain a Zifu Qizhen without paying a price. After all, in the history of the Fairy World, the number of Zifu Qizhen born along with a Secret Realm is few and far between.

Take the Sun Moon Shuttle Heavy Light Wheel as an example; it was the Dao-Achieving Item of the Underworld King. It is rumored that the Underworld King at the time invested almost all his wealth into it, including the corpse of an Ice Crystal Phoenix, and only then did he obtain the Sun Moon Shuttle Heavy Light Wheel.

The Ice Crystal Phoenix belongs to a phoenix variant and, like the phoenix, belongs to the ranks of Top-tier Divine Beasts. Its corpse can absolutely be described as a priceless treasure. If handed over to Li Zhangsheng, it could definitely yield a large amount of Spirit Essence, and the remaining materials could be used to refine a batch of high-grade treasures and Strange Treasures. Instead, it was used by the Underworld King as nourishment for his Dao-Achieving Item; this is not just ordinary extravagance.

It was not just the Underworld King; those Kings who allowed their Secret Realms to give birth to Zifu Qizhen-grade Dao-Achieving Items all exhausted top-tier resources, without exception.

As for a Langhuan Supreme Treasure-grade Dao-Achieving Item, it is simply impossible, because the carrying capacity of a Secret Realm is limited, and the Zifu Qizhen grade is the limit.

Before opening the Secret Realm, Li Zhangsheng had already prepared top-tier resources.

He first took out a jar of Taotie Spirit Essence. The Taotie belongs to one of the Four Ancient Fiends and is ranked equivalent to a Top-tier Divine Beast; the value of this jar of Spirit Essence can be imagined.

Of course, there is still a significant gap compared to the corpse of an Ice Crystal Phoenix.

The next moment, Li Zhangsheng threw in several 'accessories' from top-tier Divine Beasts. These were top-tier materials seized from the Imperial Family. Originally, he wanted to use them to refine a Semi-Artifact, but now he had to use them as nourishment for his Dao-Achieving Item.

However, even with these accessories added, it was impossible to obtain a Zifu Qizhen-grade Dao-Achieving Item, because from the feedback of his Mental Power, the energy fluctuations emitted by the ball of light not only failed to reach the Zifu Qizhen grade, but were still a short distance away from even a top-tier Mid-grade World Wonder.

Under these circumstances, Li Zhangsheng had no choice but to increase his investment.

This time, Li Zhangsheng took out the dilapidated Treasure Basin.

Although the Treasure Basin was too dilapidated and could barely maintain the level of a Low Grade World Wonder, its material quality had not dropped. As a former Zifu Qizhen, the Treasure Basin could definitely significantly increase the foundation of the Dao-Achieving Item.

From the moment he obtained the Treasure Basin, Li Zhangsheng had this idea. After all, repairing the Treasure Basin was too troublesome, and its functions were also quite lackluster to Li Zhangsheng.

From the memories of the Treasure King, he learned that the Treasure Basin's treasure-gathering ability had a limited range. Crucially, over all these years, the Treasure King had never used the Treasure Basin to obtain a World Wonder-grade treasure, and there were not even many Heaven and Earth Rare Treasure-grade treasures.

It was for this reason that, in Li Zhangsheng's eyes, the Treasure Basin was no different from something lackluster.

As for the Treasure Basin's function of Devouring treasure aura to evolve, it seemed good and powerful, but because the conversion efficiency was not high, it was also viewed by Li Zhangsheng as lackluster. Even if he provided it with a continuous stream of treasure aura, it would likely take centuries to recover to the Zifu Qizhen grade.

Such a lackluster Treasure Basin was perfect to be used as nourishment for the Dao-Achieving Item, and given its material, it was very likely to gestate a Zifu Qizhen-grade Dao-Achieving Item.
