Chapter 3299: Chapter 3319: Finally Getting to the Main Point!
Borrowing, not gifting!
I still have my own use for it in the future!
Lin Chen completely understood.
It seems the competition between these three senior brothers is very intense, to the point that they are ready to engage and have already prepared countermeasures against each other’s ultimate moves.
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch has long understood Qingluan Immortal Monarch’s methods and, to prevent any mishaps, prepared measures to deal with the Drunken Immortal Pot.
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch clearly has genuine intentions towards Lin Chen and doesn’t want anything to happen to him, which is why he is willing to lend Lin Chen his carefully prepared magical treasure to guard against any underhanded moves from Qingluan Immortal Monarch.
"Alright, I will take good care of it and return it intact when I come back."
Lin Chen sincerely expressed his gratitude and promised to return it.
Being able to borrow such an important item from the Seven-colored Immortal Monarch is something Lin Chen is already extremely grateful for. Without today’s conversation, if Qingluan Immortal Monarch were to use some trick on him another day, he might have fallen into the trap without even realizing it.
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch smiled and said, "The ancestral land of the Starry Sky Demon Beast is said to be deep in the universe, very far from here. Even if you can perform star sky jumps, the round trip will probably take a considerable amount of time, and you may encounter danger along the way. Take care of yourself, safety first."
Lin Chen raised his wine glass to toast the Seven-colored Immortal Monarch, then steered the conversation towards the purpose of his visit today.
"The Drunken Immortal Pot of Qingluan Immortal Monarch is so powerful that even a Quasi-Saint finds it difficult to resist. It should be an Innate Spiritual Treasure, just like Brother Cong’s Tao Ding, right?"
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch smiled and said, "Yes, the Drunken Immortal Pot is not a combat treasure, but it is extremely mystical. Innate Spiritual Treasures are formed naturally, not refined postnatally, but their functions vary widely. They are not all suited for combat, but it’s certain that as long as it’s an Innate Spiritual Treasure, it has something extremely unique about it."
Lin Chen asked, "There should be quite a few Innate Spiritual Treasures. What are the most powerful ones, Brother Cong, can you tell me?"
Drinking wine and chatting about anything, Lin Chen brought up the topic of Innate Treasures from the Drunken Immortal Pot and Tao Ding very naturally, without arousing the Seven-colored Immortal Monarch’s suspicions.
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch laughed and said, "Though there are many Innate Spiritual Treasures, the most famous and powerful ones are just a few."
Lin Chen made a gesture of listening attentively. It wasn’t just an act; he had learned some things before but certainly not as much as the Seven-colored Immortal Monarch.
On one hand, he wanted to steer the conversation to the Heavenly Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Tower, and on the other, he genuinely wanted to learn more.
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch took a sip of wine and thought for a moment, "When it comes to the most powerful Innate Spiritual Treasures, naturally, it is the Human Emperor Cauldron in Master’s hand. This cauldron is said to gather the destiny of the Human Clan, and none but an emperor can use it. Its power is immense and unstoppable."
Human Emperor Cauldron?
Lin Chen subconsciously thought of the Emperor’s Seal he obtained in the past, which should be somewhat related to this Human Emperor Cauldron.
"Wasn’t the Emperor using the Human Emperor Cauldron in the previous battle?"
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch explained, "The Human Emperor Cauldron gathers the destiny of the Human Clan and wouldn’t easily appear in the world. What’s more, when fighting an Abyss Demon with an unknown origin and strength, if the Human Emperor Cauldron suffered any damage, our Human Clan’s destiny would decline, plunging us into catastrophe. Therefore, unless it is a life-and-death moment, Master generally does not use the Human Emperor Cauldron."
Lin Chen realized, "I see, that should indeed be the case. No accidents should occur."
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch continued, "As for the mysterious abilities, it’s the Three-colored Coral Tree in the hands of Bodhi Saint. This treasure breaks thousands of treasures in the world. When any treasure encounters the Three-colored Coral Tree, it becomes powerless, and it’s easily seized by Bodhi Saint."
Lin Chen asked in surprise, "Brother Cong, your Seven-colored Rainbow also subdues all treasures in the world. Why does it sound like it has a similar function?"
"Indeed, they are very similar, but my Seven-colored Rainbow is incomparable to Bodhi Saint’s Three-colored Coral Tree. My Seven-colored Rainbow cannot subdue many treasures, but under the heavens, there may be fewer than a handful of things that can resist the Three-colored Coral Tree."
"Moreover, compared to Bodhi Saint’s strength, mine is insignificant. In the hands of Bodhi Saint, the Three-colored Coral Tree’s power is multiplied. Fighting him, using a treasure is like delivering yourself to him. Not using a treasure greatly reduces your combat power, leaving you no chance."
Lin Chen laughed and said, "Bodhi Saint is a Saint. In the Immortal Realm, there are only three Saints. Apart from the Emperor and Hun Yuan Saint, no one else can force him to use a treasure; he can casually crush them."
After a moment, Lin Chen sighed and said, "Bodhi Saint, possessing such strength yet isolating himself, unwilling to step forward, is truly a great loss for our Human Clan."
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch smiled bitterly, "Who can fathom the mind of a Saint? However, Master said that the path Bodhi Saint follows is different from his and Hun Yuan Saint’s. In his heart, nothing can bind him. He won’t act for others unless he wishes to."
Lin Chen nodded, recalling that the Immortal Emperor mentioned it before, saying that paths that differ do not conspire together. Only, he did not understand what path Bodhi Saint cultivates?
Lin Chen once encountered Bodhi Saint up close. The fleeting killing intent from Bodhi Saint made his tailbone chill. If not for his special status and his affiliation with the War God Temple legion, he might not have survived that day.
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch continued, "Hun Yuan Saint’s Mixed Element Golden Dipper is also immensely powerful. Its overall power may not match the Human Emperor Cauldron, nor its mystic nature match the Three-colored Coral Tree, but for dealing with large numbers of enemies, the Mixed Element Golden Dipper is incredibly potent, capable of easily trapping thousands of troops to their death."
"Of course, even in single combat, the Mixed Element Golden Dipper is equally mighty, capable of subduing an opponent within and grinding them with an array formation until death. But like you said, they are Saints. Against any opponent other than Saint level, they have no need to use a treasure."
Noticing the Seven-colored Immortal Monarch was talking about offensive treasures, Lin Chen gently steered the conversation, "The three great Saints each have one, with immense power and unique divine abilities. But these are all offensive treasures. What about defense treasures? Who is the greatest, able to withstand the treasures of the Three Saints?"
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch smiled and said, "Defensive Innate Spiritual Treasures naturally exist in abundance, but to compare with the treasures of the Three Saints, only the Heavenly Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Tower might match!"
Finally, the main topic was broached!
Lin Chen widened his eyes and said, "Heavenly Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Tower, is it really that formidable, comparable to the treasures of the Three Saints? I’ve heard of it before."
The Seven-colored Immortal Monarch looked at Lin Chen in surprise, "The Heavenly Earth Mysterious Yellow Exquisite Tower is known to be owned by a remarkable Quasi-Saint who has been missing for who knows how many millennia, along with the tower. Nowadays, few know of its existence. Who did you hear it from?"
