Chapter 408 Another Saint Grade Treasure



The seven elders looked ahead at the five young judges with looks of gratification on their faces.

"Good." 

Long Enlai said only one word but one could detect the breadth of respect and pride it carried towards the five of them.

Yang Qing, Dai Chen, and Zhang Qingge still had some hesitation in them, and it wasn't only them because even Mo Liwei and Wei Ying were their seniors and had already mentally prepared themselves owing to the judgement they made and even one of them had done a demotion of his own, the weight of it was still as heavy to them as it was to the trio.

Xu Biya the purple-haired lady with the purple gem on her forehead then took over to explain the particulars of the process to be observed when executing the sentence since it wasn't something Yang Qing or the others knew about, and it didn't exactly operate the same way they were used to.

The explanation itself wasn't long as it only touched on a few key areas such as the announcement and the options afforded to those found innocent and wish not to get entangled in the mess, establishing the zone in which to conduct the sentence, and the prevention of interference by outside parties and the measures to take incase of interference, among other small details that may crop up before, during or after the execution of the sentence.

Yang Qing and the rest took everything in as they asked a few questions of their own here and there to ensure they were as prepared as possible.

...

"With that out of the way, you can have this..." Vice President Tao Wen said as he tossed over a 10-inch horn that looked to be from an eland.

It was white with tinges of brown and gold on it, with beautiful curlings on it that looked like rope carvings intertwined together had been crafted on it.

Yang Qing on grabbing it, could feel it was smooth to the touch, and for some reason, he felt he could hear a multitude of voices coming from it, along with the rain sounds.

"That horn is called the harbinger's call. It's a saint-grade artifact whose body was made from the horn of a storm bringer eland, along with other materials.

The horn has seals on it due to its abilities that don't make a distinction between friend and foe. And the artifact's spirit... well, let's say it's better for you that we put it to sleep in the duration that you will have it.

That is to say with the spirit sealed along with the seals in place, the horn will be working at 30% capacity, which is more than enough for what you need it for, which is announcing the verdict of the Ice Emerald Sect, along with their crimes, to both them and every other place within the continent.

Your voice should be able to reach every area around the continent except perilous areas, various mysterious realms, grottos, and areas covered with top-tier gold-grade formation, other than them, you should be able to reach almost every living thing around the continent thanks to the horn's assistance along with various artifacts we have installed in every branch around the continent that will work in tandem with it by amplifying its effects through synergy.

The horn also has the ability to break down formations as another of its abilities. Even in its slumbered state, it should be more than enough to handle whatever formation the Ice Emerald Sect has covering their sect..." Vice President Tao Wen patiently explained.

Yang Qing's gaze got heated as he stared at the horn.

"A saint-grade treasure. Just how many of them do they have?" he thought greedily as he wondered if there was any way he could scam one from the Order.I think you should take a look at

With the way they kept throwing them around, surely they had more than enough to even give an impoverished palace realm cultivator one.

"I would advise you to put the horn away and seal it, immediately after making the announcement and breaking the formation. 

The more you use it, the more likelihood the little fella in there will wake up. She is more trouble than she's worth, so please err on the side of caution and seal her immediately after. 

You can use this..." Vice President Tao Wen said as he handed over a brown cloth that looked like it was the soft hide of some beast.

The cloth was the smoothest thing Yang Qing had ever touched, he couldn't help but wonder what material it was made of, and the potential uses of it.

"These stingy bastards really have the good stuff.." Yang Qing venomously thought as he put the horn and the cloth away.

"With this, I think we can draw the case to a close if there's nothing else..." Long Enlai was just about to end when he saw Yang Qing raise his hand.

"Is there anything you want to ask, Judge Yang Qing?"

"It's not a question but more of a request...The two techniques related to the Frozen serenity scripture, could I have a look at them?" asked Yang Qing

Even though he wasn't interested before, but with the things the Ice Emerald Sect had done over the years to get parts of the scripture, he might as well have a look at it.

The Order had two arts related to it. One was the frost fire art, which was a body and soul cultivation art, and the other was the Winter's embrace which was meditation art that could be used even by someone in the domain realm.

They were both blue-grade arts. With his station, he had the clearance to learn them, but it would take a few days before he got the approval, which was why he opted to use the assistance of the big figures present. 

His guess proved to be right on the mark because after a few minutes, he was given copies of the art, which though Yang Qing appreciated it, felt it was kind of a letdown because he was hoping for the original copies.

Some part of him felt there might be something to the segmented arts of the Frozen Serenity Scripture, and having the original copies could help shed some light on that guess.

It was rare to find an art that had been cut apart the way the Frozen Serenity Scripture was done. It may have been done by the Frozen Serenity Sect, as for the why, while Yang Qing had no clue, this was the type of mystery he enjoyed digging over.

However, he would have to postpone the investigation until after the matter with the Ice Emerald Sect had been settled.
