Chapter 829: Chapter 505: Things Are No Longer What They Were
Each one is like a meticulously cut diamond, crystal clear, emitting bright white light, revealing pure energy within.
These are Heavenly Treasure Diamonds!
Hui Zhu smiled and said: "Our clan produces Heavenly Treasure Diamonds, which should be familiar to Mr. Ji. These ten Heavenly Treasure Diamonds are a gift for your journey home, a token of respect, and I hope Mr. Ji will accept them."
This generous?
Ji Xinghuo was taken aback; he used to hunt monsters on Earth Abyss Star for a long time just for one Heavenly Treasure Diamond.
Later, when the Crystal Elite Clan noticed his strength, they even restricted him from participating in auctions, but allowed him to exchange 3000 Eternal Day Merit points for one, with a yearly limit of six pieces. Now they directly offered him ten.
Heavenly Treasure Diamonds are one of the top-expanding wonders, used by Fourth to Sixth Rank Mutants, granting two additional fusion opportunities at once.
Each person is limited to use one piece.
The True Dragon Dynasty also has an expanding wonder identical to the effects of Heavenly Treasure Diamonds, called "Emperor Yellow Crystal."
A batch of Emperor Yellow Crystals was included among the resources brought back this time.
The two expanding wonders conflict; using one makes the other ineffective.
Even so, Heavenly Treasure Diamonds are extremely valuable.
An Emperor Yellow Crystal can be sold for 2000 Dragon Crystals in the True Dragon Dynasty, whereas at the Eternal Day City’s rare treasure auction house, Heavenly Treasure Diamonds average a price of 200 Ether Crystals + 400 Eternal Day Merits, which is quite cheap.
This drives the Crystal Elite Clan to send foreign Mutants to Earth Abyss Star, the main reason for clearing enemies for them.
Ten Heavenly Treasure Diamonds, totaling a value of twenty thousand Ether Crystals.
The Crystal Elite Clan is incredibly generous.
However, Ji Xinghuo became cautious; the more valuable the gifts from the Crystal Elite Clan, the more difficult problems lie ahead.
"Please retract them, I will purchase from you if needed." Ji Xinghuo refused.
Seeing his insistence on not accepting, Hui Zhu said: "Mr. Ji can name a price."
Ji Xinghuo thought it over and nodded.
"Then at the price of Emperor Yellow Crystals in the True Dragon Dynasty, I will offer twenty thousand Ether Crystals to buy these ten Heavenly Treasure Diamonds."
Hui Zhu readily agreed.
Ji Xinghuo took out twenty thousand Ether Crystals, completed the transaction, and then proceeded to bid farewell.
He rode on Qing Hong’s back, and with a gentle leap, Qing Hong entered the void, swiftly exiting Eternal Day City. Hui Zhu saw this scene and couldn’t help but look grimly, his gaze penetrating the void to track Qing Hong’s direction, but in an instant, they vanished.
The tall snake-like Crystal Elite Clan members quieted down.
Yet within, turbulent waves stirred, intense communication with the clan, even leading to some disputes.
Over a thousand kilometers from Eternal Day City, Qing Hong emerged from the void.
Only then did Ji Xinghuo initiate a Star Realm Jump, directly leading Qing Hong to Peach Blossom Valley. In the cold season "Interim Month," the climate was pleasant, the peach blossoms in the gorge had already withered, and the lush branches were covered with peaches, laden with fruit, fragrance permeating.
Looking at the familiar river valley and distant snow-capped mountains, a scene Ji Xinghuo had longed for day and night, gazing almost daily with the Macro Heavenly Eye, stirred something within him.
Qing Hong landed before the Secret Realm.
Ji Xinghuo’s eyes pierced through the void interval, seeing the wooden house in the Secret Realm Fragment, where Ye Zhen was resting in the bedroom.
Qing Hong led him through the ripples of the void, gradually stepping into the Secret Realm.
Ye Zhen immediately sensed it, opened her eyes, got up, and saw a familiar figure through the window on the second floor of the wooden house.
Joy flashed in her eyes, but soon returned to calm, quietly watching Ji Xinghuo fly up to her, saying softly: "Sister Ren, I’m back."
