Death Grip
Although what Xing Chen saw was the corpse of the Thunderfire Deity that had been dead for many years, the fact that the body could miraculously stand up and speak proved that the aura it emitted was certainly not much weaker than when it was alive.
However, even a strong figure like the Thunderfire Deity, who was at the Peak of Fate Observation Realm, had an aura that was far inferior to that of the giant hand that had just appeared; there was hardly any comparison.
This shows how powerful the owner of that giant hand must be. If it were truly to break free from its seal and reappear in the world, not just Nebula Island, but the entire sea area would likely face an unprecedented calamity.
"Since Ling Kaifeng's matter has been resolved, we should discuss the distribution of resources and the rewards for the top three in this competition!" Zhao Yuanlong glanced nervously at the Demon Suppression Cave before turning to Nangong Xingyun and speaking.
"The items have been brought. This is the Tier Martial Arts Xuan Seven Killing Sword, along with the Earth Grade Top-Tier Divine Weapon, Xuan Sword." Nangong Xingyun said with a grim expression as he took out two items and tossed them to Huo Mingqing.
The Xuan Seven Killing Sword is one of the three supreme sword techniques of Nebula Gate, its power is not inferior to that of the Starfall Sword. Moreover, as an Earth-Level top-tier Divine Weapon, the Xuan Sword is even stronger than the Qixing Jian in Ling Kaifeng's possession.
"Well then, I will thank Brother Nangong in advance." Huo Mingqing said with a smile as he received the two items.
Huo Mingqing's words made Nangong Xingyun's expression grow even darker. The reason he had been so generous in offering such rewards was because he was certain that Ling Kaifeng would secure first place.
Unexpectedly, so many accidents occurred during the competition. Not only was Ling Kaifeng forced to take the Bloodthirsty Frenzy Pill and failed to secure first place, but now he was also sealed within the Demon Suppression Cave.
However, since they had already gone out before, there was no way for him to backtrack on the rewards for the top three. Thus, he could only grit his teeth and give away one of Nebula Gate's three supreme sword techniques, the Xuan Seven Killing Sword, as a reward for first place, along with a matching Earth Grade Top-Tier Divine Weapon, the Xuan Sword.
"Earth-Level Top Martial Arts, Seven Star Finger; Earth Grade Divine Weapon, Starlight Sword!" Nangong Xingyun endured his heartache and took out more precious Martial Arts and Divine Weapons from his Storage Ring.
Song Daohong naturally received them with a smile. After all, no one has enmity with Martial Arts or Divine Weapons. Even though their Song Family had previously had a good relationship with Nebula Gate, at this moment, interests took precedence over any friendship.
"Earth-Level Martial Arts, Reprint." When Nangong Xingyun took out his last Earth-Level Martial Arts item, he felt as if his heart were bleeding. These were all treasures accumulated by Nebula Gate over countless years, and now they were being taken away by others.
Although Huo Mingqing and others only received hand-copied versions, they were still unique Earth-Level Martial Arts from Nebula Gate. It is easy to imagine how Nangong Xingyun felt about this situation.
Xing Chen took a look at the Earth-Level Martial Arts and found it was just a basic level Earth-Level Martial Arts. He couldn't help but feel a bit disappointed, and then he tossed the Martial Arts into the Thunderfire Divine Ring.
"Now that the rewards have been distributed, it's time to allocate the resources," Zhao Yuanlong said again, as he was most concerned about resources. Previously, the Zhao Family had always been at the bottom among the four major forces, but now they finally had a chance to turn things around. Zhao Yuanlong was naturally eager to know the distribution results.
"I have already given the orders. Aside from the ten Elemental Stone Veins in the Nebula Mountain Range, you can distribute everything else as you wish. I have already evacuated all personnel from those locations, so you can send people to take over now," Nangong Xingyun said lightly before suddenly disappearing from sight.
Seeing Nangong Xingyun leave abruptly, everyone didn't react much; after all, they understood his feelings at this moment. If it were them, they might not handle it any better than Nangong Xingyun.
"Song Brother, what about the twenty Elemental Stone Veins you owe me?" Zhao Yuanlong suddenly chuckled and looked at Song Daohong.
"You can send more people from Nebula Gate to take over those twenty. However, don't touch the Elemental Stone Veins in Azure Water Forest; I will send my own people there. You can take over the other Elemental Stone Veins," Song Daohong said while glancing at Zhao Yuanlong, anger flashing in his eyes, but he still spoke calmly.
"The Elemental Stone Veins in Volcanic Range will be taken over by our Fire Sect since it's closer to us and easier to manage," Huo Mingqing interjected as soon as Song Daohong finished speaking.
"Then my Zhao Family can only take over the Elemental Stone Veins in Yin Wind Mountain Range?" Zhao Yuanlong said with a slightly gloomy expression.
Although Yin Wind Mountain Range was relatively close to where the Zhao Family was located, it was extremely dangerous, filled with ferocious beasts. Even when people from Nebula Gate entered to mine for elemental stones back then, they did so cautiously and dared not be careless. Despite this caution, Nebula Gate still suffered considerable losses each time they entered Yin Wind Mountain Range.
Now Huo Mingqing and Song Daohong were openly claiming the Elemental Stone Veins in Volcanic Range and Azure Water Forest, leaving only those in Yin Wind Mountain Range for Zhao Yuanlong.
"Hehe, Zhao Family Head, don't be too agitated. Although Yin Wind Mountain Range is quite perilous, it has the least mined Elemental Stone Veins. You should feel honored to obtain the Elemental Stone Veins there!" Song Daohong said with a smile, all his previous displeasure vanishing at that moment.
Moreover, sending Zhao Family members into Yin Wind Mountain Range to face danger was something he found extremely gratifying.
"You..." Zhao Yuanlong's expression darkened with anger. He knew very well how dangerous Yin Wind Mountain Range was. First of all, only those who reached Soul Realm could enter and come out alive; even then, it was merely a hope of survival.
In reality, even powerful warriors at Yang Spirit Realm had a high chance of dying inside due to the overwhelming number of fierce beasts present—beasts that were incredibly strong.
Although it is considered safe once one passes through the dangerous area of the Yin Wind Mountain Range to enter the Elemental Stone Vein, the challenge lies in traversing this perilous zone.
"Brother Zhao, it's settled then. We'll take our leave now." Huo Mingqing's figure flickered slightly and transformed into a flash of fire, taking Fireman with him as they departed, while Song Daohong also left at the same moment.
"Those two fools actually dare to treat me this way, Zhao Family." At this moment, Zhao Yuanlong could no longer see it any other way; these two major forces were clearly colluding to suppress his Zhao Family. Even though there were nearly thirty Elemental Stone Veins within the Yin Wind Mountain Range, they were nothing but illusions, merely for show.
To enter the Yin Wind Mountain Range, safely reach the Elemental Stone Vein, extract from it, and then return to the Zhao Family was essentially as difficult as climbing a mountain.
"It seems the Zhao Family is in trouble." Xing Chen thought to himself. He had once used the Soul Devouring Refinement Technique to gain Song Gaodan's memories and naturally understood what kind of place the Yin Wind Mountain Range was—an extremely dangerous and vicious location.
"Brother Xing Chen, what are your plans next? If you have no other matters, you might as well stay a little longer at my Zhao Family." After venting for a while, Zhao Yuanlong looked at Xing Chen and spoke.
"I originally intended to return directly to Snow Wind Island, but since the Zhao Family Head has said so, I will stay at the Zhao Family for a while longer!" Xing Chen pondered for a moment before replying.
It wasn't that he didn't want to leave; rather, he didn't know where to go after leaving the Zhao Family. Therefore, Xing Chen decided to stay at the Zhao Family for a while longer while considering his options.
"In that case, let's head back to the Zhao Family!" Zhao Yuanlong said slowly.
After hearing this, Xing Chen nodded slightly. Although Zhao Yuanlong had been looking at him strangely lately, Xing Chen was not afraid of him taking action against him because even if he couldn't defeat him, he could still escape.
Thus, Xing Chen was not worried about any harm coming from him. Moreover, at the Zhao Family, he had a peaceful environment for cultivation. Once his strength was sufficiently formidable, he could then go to Snow Wind Island.
Xing Chen and Zhao Yuanlong took about four hours before finally returning to the Zhao Family. Upon their return, Zhao Yuanlong immediately summoned the Six Elders for an urgent family meeting.
As Xing Chen was not a member of the Zhao Family, he naturally could not participate in such internal meetings. So he returned to his own courtyard within the Zhao Family and began his cultivation.
However, since he had just broken through to the Yang Spirit Realm, it was practically impossible for him to further enhance his cultivation in a short period. Even if he forced an increase, it would lead to an unstable foundation.
In his leisure time, Xing Chen took out the Earth-Level Primary Martial Technique, Reprint, from the Thunderfire Divine Ring. Although this martial art was far inferior to his Ninefold Thunder Palm, Shattering Star Finger, and Seven Killing Blood Seal in terms of level, it was still an Earth-Level martial art, so Xing Chen decided to take a look.
As the saying goes, you don't know until you look; upon seeing the Reprint, Xing Chen was indeed taken aback.
Although this Reprint was merely an Earth-Level primary martial art, its true power was surprisingly comparable to higher-tier martial arts.
The reason it was classified as an Earth-Level Primary Martial Technique was entirely due to its overwhelming power being offset by its absurdly slow attack speed, making it easy for anyone to dodge. Moreover, it required a certain amount of time to condense into a seal, which was enough for an enemy to kill you.
Because of these reasons, the Reprint was categorized as a rather useless martial art, and its level was downgraded to Earth-Level primary.
After reading the introduction about the Reprint, Xing Chen was somewhat dumbfounded; this martial art truly was a tasteless dish that one would hesitate to discard.
Just when Xing Chen was about to give up on practicing it, a sudden flash of inspiration struck him. His gaze towards the Reprint instantly became fervent as if he had thought of a good solution to address its shortcomings.
