Martial Saint through Reading

Gradually withdrawing the seal, a faint aura leaked out.

Buzz!

In an instant.

The concealed aura on the White Bamboo Bottle, auctioned by Chu Ming, resonated, as did the Ashen Bone Bag auctioned by Xing Rong trapped within the Golden Wheel.

Almost simultaneously, within the Heavenly Inquiry Tower of the Cyan-faced Mountain Range, Wu Dai, holding the Fire Bead’s essence, also felt a resonance.

"It appeared!" Wu Dai’s eyes suddenly focused.

"Junior Brother, go!"

With a step into the void, the two great experts of the Heavenly Inquiry Tower vanished from the pavilion, heading straight toward the source of the resonance.

Above the White River Basin.

Yiyang Yie, the second strongest in the Yiyang Kingdom, stood side by side with Chu Ming, disguised as ’Yiyang Mountain.’ The expert from the Seven-Star Kingdom, Xing Rong, within the Golden Wheel, squinted slightly, staring at ’Yiyang Mountain.’

Xing Rong could clearly sense the new treasure resonance source, right on ’Yiyang Mountain.’

’A treasure of the same source has appeared again!’

’Moreover, the fleeting strength of the treasure just now was even stronger than that within the Heavenly Inquiry Tower!’

’No, I must quickly inform my brother!’

Xing Rong, startled and suspicious, secretly sent a message to his brother Xing Hong.

"What, a second True Intent Soldier Embryo appeared within the Yiyang Kingdom?!"

"And its strength surpasses the one sensed before?"

As soon as Xing Rong sent the message, the communication treasure responded.

"Yes, it is on Yiyang Mountain in the Yiyang Kingdom. I’m trapped by Yiyang Yie and Yiyang Mountain together. The Heavenly Inquiry Tower is hiding in the shadows. Brother, come quickly, lest changes occur."

"Alright!"

The True Intent Soldier Embryo mentioned in their exchange was, in fact, the ’Tanghulu’ on Chu Ming and the Fire Bead that Wu Dai from the Heavenly Inquiry Tower obtained.

A few words revealed that the Seven-Star Kingdom’s Xing Rong and Xing Hong were very knowledgeable about the True Intent Soldier Embryo.

Xing Rong transmitted the information and secretly communicated with the Seven-Star Sword via the Sea of Qi, preparing for a great battle.

In less than half a quarter hour, two streams of light quickly approached from the horizon.

"Not good!"

Yiyang Yie of the Yiyang Kingdom sensed the two streams of light and his expression changed drastically.

The reason being, the aura emanating from one of the streams was incredibly terrifying.

"Third Brother, is Old Five and Old Six’s Golden Sun Annihilation ready?!" He immediately summoned the National Treasure, also urging ’Yiyang Mountain.’

Such a terrifying aura was even stronger than the strongest expert in the Yiyang Kingdom, and the aura showed no signs of restraint, clearly indicating ill intentions. Yiyang Yie’s first reaction was to use the Golden Sun Annihilation for resistance.

"Old Four is quite severely injured; the Golden Sun Annihilation is in preparation." Replied Chu Ming, disguised as ’Yiyang Mountain.’

Upon sensing that powerful aura, Chu Ming was equally startled and suspicious.

The strength of that aura far exceeded that of any National Guardian Realm he had previously defeated. Even after considerable effort to slay Ming Feng of the Black and White Divine Palace and the second senior brother Ming Si, it was not of such strength.

Having witnessed those of the Seventh Realm, Chu Ming estimated that the aura perhaps had already touched the Seventh Realm!

"Why is it still being prepared, what’s going on with Old Four!" Yiyang Yie, anxious in his heart.

After a brief panic, the two streams of light had already fallen before them—it was the two great experts Wu Dai and Yi Chentian of the Heavenly Inquiry Tower.

However, at this moment, Yi Chentian had altered his appearance and aura using some secret technique, so no one could recognize the two as experts of the Heavenly Inquiry Tower.

After all, on the surface, the Heavenly Inquiry Tower cared greatly about its reputation, so naturally, the two would not reveal their true selves.

"Are you two intending to interfere with our Yiyang Kingdom’s affair?" Yiyang Yie spoke with gritted teeth.

Wu Dai swept his gaze disdainfully, silent, while Yi Chentian stepped forward, lightly laughing:

"Yiyang Yie, no one cares about your Yiyang Kingdom’s affair, but..."

Yi Chentian shifted his gaze to ’Yiyang Mountain,’ "I need the third strongest of your Yiyang Kingdom, Yiyang Mountain, to help me with something."

The two from the Heavenly Inquiry Tower had tracked the aura source, locking onto Yiyang Mountain, which was Chu Ming.

Yi Chentian’s tone was contemptuous, with no real intention of asking for help, rather, it seemed more like it was taken for granted.

"What help?" Yiyang Yie’s face turned somewhat unsightly, for he could hear the disdain in the words.

The so-called help was obviously disadvantageous to Yiyang Mountain.

The brothers of the Yiyang Kingdom supported each other, with deep ties. As the second brother, with the eldest not present, Yiyang Yie had to stand in front of Yiyang Mountain.

"It’s not much, just a treasure exchange with Yiyang Mountain." Yi Chentian’s eyes flashed with mockery.

Given his senior brother Wu Dai’s strength, there was no need to speak so many unnecessary words, but Yiyang Yie and his two were National Guardian Realm experts of the Yiyang Kingdom, having emerged from the Heavenly Inquiry Tower auction. A hasty move to kill might affect the reputation of the Heavenly Inquiry Tower.

Thus, Yi Chentian and his senior brother discussed first reasoning with them.

Exchange treasures?

Yiyang Yie frowned deeply.

At his level, any item deemed a treasure was rare and precious.

For instance, today they intercepted the young man in black and Xing Rong, for the two Tier Six treasures auctioned by the Heavenly Inquiry Tower.

For it to be a treasure, it would not be easily traded or exchanged.

As he listened, the supposed exchange of treasures sounded not like an exchange, but a usurpation!

As he was about to refuse, he saw Yi Chentian wave his sleeve, and a treasure exuding tremendous pressure appeared in front of him—a golden armor.

With the appearance of the golden armor, Yiyang Yie’s eyes changed.

Tier Six! At least Tier Six Middle Grade!

It’s also a protective treasure!

Could it be that the visitor truly intends to exchange treasures?!

Yiyang Yie stared at the golden armor, his initial suspicion beginning to waver.

"This armor, the Earth-Shaking Golden Dragon Armor, is forged from the reversed scale of the three-headed Divine Beast, the Earth-Shaking Golden Dragon. Without the need to activate Qi Blood, it can withstand a full force strike from an early stage Sea of Qi cultivator. Infusing Qi Blood, attacks from an ordinary middle stage Sea of Qi cultivator can basically be ignored."

Yi Chentian introduced the formidable aspects of the suspended golden armor.

An Exotic Beast that reaches Tier Six can be called a Divine Beast, and the Earth-Shaking Golden Dragon is an Exotic Beast with remarkable defensive capabilities. Its reversed scale is incredibly hard.
