A tall and handsome man could be seen standing at the top of the vast battle arena. His black armor made him look valiant and majestic like a war god. Based on his attire, it was plain to see he was from the Black Dragon Army.
"Unexpected! Truly unexpected!" Chen Xuan Ba, the Commander of the Black Dragon Army, shook his head and sighed as he looked at the young man on top of the battle arena. It was obvious he did not expect this young man to be the last man standing.
"I thought if anyone from our camp wins, it would be Captain Zhao Dong Xing. Who knew it would be Captain Qin Yu!" The members of the Black Dragon Army felt incredulous when they looked at the armored young man. After all, the young man had only become a captain half a year ago after he defeated a captain. Moreover, they had watched the battle and knew this young man did not win by chance. They thought Zhao Dong Xing who had been a captain for a longer time would win.
"Commander Chen, it seems like the Black Dragon Army has been concealing its strength. First, it was Duan Ling Tian. Now, it's Qin Yu," Miao Lai Long, the Commander of the Silverwyrm Army, said coldly as he stared at Chen Xuan Ba.
"Thank you for your compliment, Commander Miao." Chen Xuan Ba only smiled when he replied to Miao Lai Long. He seemed much more magnanimous compared to Miao Lai Long who was sneering.
Meanwhile, Liu Feng Gu, the City Governor of Bloody Specter City, looked at Qin Yu and said, "Qin Yu, prepare yourself and hand over your work to others in this one month. Come here after a month so you can follow the special envoy sent by the County Governor to the County City of Nine Specters County." He was similarly surprised. He did not expect Qin Yu to win the battle. Based on the battle, he knew Qin Yu was stronger than the others. There was no doubt he deserved to be selected to go to the County City of the Nine Specters County.
…
In a hidden corner.
Duan Ling Tian was watching Qin Yu who was standing at the top of the battle arena. A slightly surprised expression could be seen on his face as he murmured, "I didn't expect he would be going to the County City with me next month."
Since everyone's attention was focused on Qin Yu, no one noticed Duan Ling Tian. In fact, he had been here since the battle had begun. After he saw the result, he quietly turned to leave. He did not return to continue cultivating. Instead, he left the City Governor's estate.
A few days ago, Duan Ling Tian chose to end his closed-door cultivation after he became a Violet Moon Heavenly Celestial. This was because he knew he would not be able to become a Golden Celestial in just a month even if he continued cultivating. Apart from that, he also wished to understand more about this Devata Realm before he had to go to the County City of Nine Specters County. After all, his knowledge was limited to what the young waiter had told him.
Duan Ling Tian entered a few shops that looked like book shops and bought a dozen Memory Celestial Talismans with primitive Celestial Stones. These Memory Celestial Talismans contained information. By extending his Divine Consciousness into it, he could read and memorize the recorded information. However, these Memory Celestial Talismans could only be used once. Unlike the mundane realms, Celestial Talismans in the Devata Realms were engraved on jade tokens.
After Duan Ling Tian bought the Memory Celestial Talismans he needed, he returned to the City Governor's estate. He did not go to the Tranquil Alcove. Instead, he returned to the guesthouse that Liu Feng Gu had prepared for him. The guesthouse was like a small-scale mansion with three rooms and a large courtyard.
"Lord Duan Ling Tian!"
"Lord Duan Ling Tian!"
The two guards at the entrance greeted Duan Ling Tian respectfully when they saw him.
"Both of you know me?" Duan Ling Tian asked in surprise as he looked at the two guards. These guards were different from the guards who were stationed here when he first entered the City Governor's estate a few months ago.
"Lord Duan Ling Tian, since you came, Lord City Governor had passed your portrait to everyone in the estate. Lord City Governor also ordered us to be respectful toward you. Anyone who is impolite will be asked to leave," one of the guards replied respectfully.
"The City Governor is, indeed, sincere." Duan Ling Tian shook his head as he smiled. He stepped into the garden and was respectfully greeted by a few female servants.
He made his way to a large room that was located between two small rooms. Then, he took out a Memory Celestial Talisman and infused his Divine Consciousness into it.
Crack!
As soon as the Memory Celestial Talisman cracked, Duan Ling Tian sensed new information in his mind.
The content of the Memory Celestial Talisman contained information about Celestial Pills in Devata Realms. They were divided into four grades; primitive Celestial Pills, mediocre Celestial Pills, prominent Celestial Pills, and supreme Celestial Pills. Primitive Celestial Pills could be refined by primitive Celestial Alchemists. Some primitive Celestial Alchemists with better skills might be able to produce one or two mediocre Celestial Pills if they were lucky! Naturally, it was an extremely rare occurrence. Likewise, it was very difficult for mediocre Celestial Alchemists and prominent Celestial Alchemists to refine prominent Celestial Pill and supreme Celestial Pills respectively. This was especially true for Supreme Celestial Pills since there were no prominent Celestial Alchemists in the Spirit Overarching Heaven who could refine a supreme Celestial Pill regardless of how skilled or lucky the Celestial Alchemists were.
'Celestial Alchemists...' Duan Ling Tian took out another Memory Celestial Talisman and infused his Divine Consciousness into it. After it cracked, new information appeared in his mind again.
Celestial Weapons are divided into primitive Celestial Weapons, mediocre Celestial Weapons, prominent Celestial Weapons, and supreme Celestial Weapons. They were forged by Celestial Craftsmen. Similar to Celestial Alchemists, they were divided into primitive Celestial Weapons Craftsmen, mediocre Celestial Weapon Craftsmen, prominent Celestial Craftsmen, and Supremes Celestial Weapon Craftsmen.
'Apart from having the skills to refine pills and forge weapons, one also needs Celestial Fire to become a Celestial Alchemist or a Celestial Weapon Craftsman. Celestial Fire is very precious in Devata Realms. The higher the grade, the rarer it is. Moreover, there are many types, but they can mainly be divided into the gentle type and the tyrannical type. The gentle type is suitable for pills refining while the tyrannical type for weapons forging,' Duan Ling Tian thought to himself as learned about Celestial Alchemists and Celestial Weapon Craftsmen and how they were different from their counterparts in the mundane realms. In the mundane realms, one could produce one's own Pill Fire and Weapon Flame, but in Devata Realms, one needed to obtain a Celestial Fire before one could study pills refining and weapons crafting.
