Chapter 954 Crimson rock

Shun Long examined the two items in front of him, his gaze barely scratching the familiar bronze token before focusing on the gigantic maroon rock.

The bronze token appeared almost identical to the one he had found on the third trial, albeit with a few noticeable differences. The words 'Imperial Mandate' were carved on its front just like the first one, while the words 'inner court' were carved on its back.

Shun Long remembered that the token he had obtained from the third trial had the words 'outer court' instead, but this one was clearly meant for inner court disciples... Or at least, for people with the qualifications to take the test for inner court disciples.

And yet, Shun Long's gaze didn't linger on the small token for too long before turning towards the enormous crimson boulder.

''A 'Sun-blessed spiritual rock?'' As his hand touched the enormous red rock, Shun Long struggled to believe how generous the reward of this fifth trial actually was.

Even if he ignored the tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones he had obtained in the first trial or the hundreds of spiritual materials used by formation masters from the second trial, the rewards from the third and fourth trials were already astonishing enough, even by the perspective of most Sovereign realm experts let alone those Dao Kings who had entered the tower.

The 'Immortal Meridian fruit' was already an extremely rare treasure that forcefully enlarged a person's meridians and essentially increased their talent, while each of the three 'Immortal-grade cultivation techniques' from the fourth trial was more than enough to guarantee these talented Dao Kings reaching the 'Earth Immortal realm' within their lifetimes.

And yet, this 'Sun-blessed spiritual rock' exceeded even those previous treasures by a large margin!

Of course, those people who were unfamiliar with natural treasures wouldn't know what a 'Sun-blessed spiritual rock' was, nor what it was used for... but how could Shun Long possibly not know? n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

After all, his 'Heaven Swallowing vine' was also a type of natural treasure born from heaven and earth!

Nodding his head, Shun Long then continued

''To most Dao Kings, this is indeed a rare treasure that can increase their cultivation base in a short amount of time, but for anyone who has comprehended the 'Dao of Fire' or any similar Dao... it's a priceless treasure that can also increase their Dao comprehension as well.''

Shun Long's words were calm and unhurried, but Little Black's eyes widened in disbelief as he understood the implications behind that last part. Indeed, if people knew of the effects of this 'Sun-blessed spiritual rock', how many cultivators with high affinity to fire would trade everything they had to obtain a piece?

However, Shun Long was completely unconcerned about those people. He wasn't planning on trading this piece of spiritual rock, nor was he worried that anyone would try and steal it from him... such people would only end up regretting their actions in the end.

Instead, he was curious about something else.

''How could the 'Imperial Mandate sect' give out such a huge piece of 'Sun-blessed spiritual rock'?''

Regardless of how rich the sect was, they couldn't possibly hand such large pieces of spiritual rocks to everyone who passed the fifth trial, right? Even for an immortal sect, it didn't make any sense.

This matter became even more bizarre considering that just a fist-sized of this rock was enough to propel someone to the peak of the Sovereign realm. Wouldn't larger pieces be a waste then? Unless the 'Imperial Mandate sect' was planning to nurture a bunch of immortals in a short amount of time...

A few moments later, Shun Long eventually put those thoughts to the back of his mind and stored both the bronze token and the 'Sun-blessed spiritual rock' inside the 'Stone of Time'.

Since he couldn't come to a conclusion, it was pointless to keep thinking about the 'Imperial Mandate sect' intentions any further. He was going to find out after ascending the 'Heavenly Tower' anyway.
