The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom stood up, straightened his robes, revealing a shining star emblem on his chest: "Because I am now a member of the Star Palace. This set of equipment is not rented; it's a new employee perk."
"what?!"
The Azure Flame Divine Spear in the hands of Venerable Beichen almost fell to the ground.
This is a complete set of top-tier treasures, and it was just lent out like that, and for free!
Wait a minute, that's not what Star Palace publicly announced. Are the internal benefits at Star Palace really that good?
They're really loaded!
Chapter 153 The Golden Armor Trembles
The mist surrounding Venerable Black Cloud surged violently: "You joined the Star Palace? When did that happen?"
"Just last month."
The ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom proudly touched the badge.
"The Palace Master of Star Palace personally recruited him, and the benefits..."
He deliberately dragged out the tone.
“You can see it clearly yourselves, the Star Palace is truly wealthy.”
Yuan Chen twitched the corner of his mouth.
"Tsk tsk, I'm envious of what you're saying."
"I suggest you join us too."
The leader of Ganwu Kingdom said seriously.
“The Star Palace is currently short of manpower and high-end combat power, especially high-level Venerables like you. With your strength, your treatment will not be worse than mine.”
Venerable Beichen stroked the Azure Flame Divine Spear: "It does sound quite good..."
"But what about the tribe..."
"Black Cloud Venerable hesitated," he said.
The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom waved his hand: "It doesn't matter! I am still the ruler of Qianwu Universe Kingdom, but I have an additional identity as an elder of the Star Palace."
"Joining now and joining later will be completely different treatment, and you should be aware of that."
A struggle flashed in Venerable Yuan Chen's eyes, and his fingers unconsciously rubbed the hilt of his sword.
"I'll join!"
Venerable Yuan Chen suddenly slammed his hand on the table and stood up, and the three flying swords simultaneously emitted clear and melodious sword sounds.
"Instead of wasting time, let's take a gamble!"
Venerable Beichen and Venerable Heiyun looked at him in surprise.
"you……"
Venerable Beichen hesitated, as if he wanted to speak but then stopped.
Venerable Yuan Chen laughed freely: "I've been stuck at a bottleneck for too long. Star Palace has the best cultivation resources, and my situation is similar to that of Qian Wu, as you all know."
A fighting spirit ignited in his eyes.
"Worth the gamble!"
The mist surrounding the Black Cloud Venerable surged violently, his scarlet eyes flickering uncertainly: "I need to think about it some more..."
Venerable Beichen slowly shook his head: "This matter is of great importance. Please allow me to observe for a while longer."
The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom was not in a hurry at all, but instead showed an understanding smile: "It's alright. The opening of the Primordial Star this time will last for a thousand epochs, so you can take your time to consider it."
There was silence for a moment.
Venerable Beichen suddenly shoved the Azure Flame Divine Spear in his hand into the arms of the Qianwu Kingdom's ruler: "Old Qian, this treasure is yours this time!"
The ruler of Qianwu Kingdom was taken aback and quickly declined, saying, "How can this be? According to the rules, we should split it equally."
"Cut the nonsense!"
Venerable Yuan Chen slapped him on the shoulder.
"If you hadn't borrowed so much top-tier equipment, we might not have been able to snatch it. Besides..."
He winked mischievously.
"You owe your tribe so much debt. If you don't pay it back soon, who will dare to lend you equipment next time?"
A hoarse laugh came from within the mist of the Black Cloud Venerable: "Take it. Looking at your poor and shabby appearance, I'm worried for you."
The old king of Qianwu blushed and said, "You... sigh, I will remember this favor."
"What's there to remember!"
Venerable Beichen laughed and scolded.
"Paying off the debt is the most important thing. Just remember to help us snag some treasures next time!"
……
the other side.
After searching for a hundred years on the Primordial Star, Xingchen finally realized that searching for treasures on the Primordial Star was useless, so he simply found a place to wait.
His achievements over the past century can be described as rather mediocre.
I only obtained one set of treasure treasures and 16 other treasure treasures.
That's indeed a bit too little for him.
Most importantly, he didn't fight a single battle in those hundred years.
Never mind, there's no need to rush, it's only a thousand epochs.
He now sits cross-legged atop a mountain peak, quietly waiting there.
As time passed, the Primordial Star would remain open for a full 1000 epochs, which meant that the probability of some precious treasures appearing was extremely low, and they would only appear once in a very long time.
Instead, set-heavy treasures and ordinary treasures have become common objects of contention.
Treasures are common here, but it takes a bit of luck. After all, there isn't just one primordial star. For example, a star has been on the primordial star for hundreds of years, yet it has only encountered the birth of a treasure once.
Not only do you need luck, but you also need to be close enough. Being near the source gives you an advantage; if you're too far away, the treasure will have already been taken by the time you arrive at its birthplace.
"Luck."
Xingchen shook his head.
He sat cross-legged atop the mountain peak, his eyes slightly closed, enveloped in a faint starlight. The winds of the primordial star brushed against his robes, yet could not shake him in the slightest.
suddenly--
hum!
Without warning, the golden armor on his chest trembled, and a strange fluctuation emanated from deep within the armor, as if some long-dormant power was awakening.
Xingchen suddenly opened her eyes, starlight swirling in her pupils.
"Ok?"
He looked down at his armor, his palm gently pressing against the surface of the golden armor. The tremor didn't come from an external attack, but from the armor itself resonating, as if calling out to something.
"Is this... indicating the way?"
He frowned slightly, his divine sense extending outwards along the fluctuations of the Golden Armor, vaguely sensing that something in the distance seemed to be attracting it.
What's happening here?
The next second, his pupils contracted slightly, and he was startled.
"Could it be... that the Golden Armor is not in its complete form?"
The moment this thought crossed his mind, his breathing quickened. The Golden Armor was already a high-grade treasure with astonishing defensive capabilities; if it was still incomplete, what level would its complete form be?
"A top-tier treasure? Or... an even higher-level treasure?"
A burning desire flashed in Xingchen's eyes. After waiting for a hundred years on the Primordial Star, the true opportunity had finally arrived!
Without hesitation, he stood up, starlight gathering around him. With one step, his figure transformed into a dazzling stream of light, rushing towards the direction from which the fluctuations originated.
Meanwhile, in another part of the sky above the original star.
A purple figure streaked across the sky at an astonishing speed, causing the space around it to subtly distort.
The Purple Fiend Venerable of the Northern Frontier Alliance was flying high in the sky, searching for treasures on the Primordial Star. His face was cold and stern, a purple lightning pattern flashed between his brows, and a faint aura of malevolence swirled around him.
Sudden--
"Um?!"
His figure suddenly stopped, hovering in mid-air, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"My 'Purple Armor'... is vibrating?"
He looked down at his armor, and on the surface of the purplish-black armor, fine lightning patterns appeared, as if it had been summoned by something.
The Purple Fiend Venerable frowned, quickly scanning his surroundings with his divine sense. Only after confirming that there were no enemies lying in ambush did he refocus his attention on his battle armor.
"Strange, the Purple Fiend Armor has never reacted like this before..."
He tried to suppress it with his divine power, but found that the tremors of the armor not only did not weaken, but became stronger, and even seemed to be pulling him in a certain direction.
"What exactly is going on?"
After a moment of silence, Venerable Zi Sha suddenly narrowed his pupils as a startling guess flashed through his mind.
"Could it be... that the treasures attract each other? Could it be that the Purple Fiend Armor is not in its complete form?!"
This thought made his heart race. The Purple Fiend Armor was already a high-grade treasure; if it was still incomplete, then what would its complete form be like...?
"Hahaha! God help me too!"
He couldn't help but burst into laughter, his eyes filled with ecstatic joy.
"No matter who has the other part, since I've sensed it, it's mine!"
Without further hesitation, purple lightning surged around him, his speed suddenly increased, and he sped off in the direction indicated by the battle armor!
