CH 144

Chapter 144 You call this little cutie the Eastern Emperor’s Bell?

As the sound of a system notification rang out, Linley discovered that the golden light around him was slowly condensing.

In the end, it transformed into a small palm sized golden bell, appearing before his eyes.

This was the Eastern Emperor’s Bell?

Linley stared at this little thing that was no more than 20 cm in length, stunned.

The legendary supreme-grade numinous treasure that could block a peak-stage Great Sage actually looked like this?

So… cute?

Linley didn’t know whether to laugh or cry as he thought about this. He stretched out his hand.

The Eastern Emperor’s Bell seemed to have some sort of spiritual sense, and it directly jumped into his palm. Like a cat, it lazily lay on his palm.

And just as Linley was wondering how such a cute thing was going to block such a powerful attack…

A strange feeling suddenly spread out from the Eastern Emperor’s Bell into his consciousness.

This feeling was very strange. It was as though the Eastern Emperor’s Bell was a part of his body, and he could sense it through his nerve system.

And through this feeling, Linley quickly understood why the first-born Eastern Emperor’s Bell looked like this.

Because…

The Eastern Emperor’s Bell was a type of defensive spiritual treasure that could grow and grow.

It wasn’t an immutable treasure. Rather, as the owner’s power increased, it would constantly evolve and transform.

This process was a bit like taking care of plants and flowers.

As long as the owner took care of it with all his heart and used his own mageforce to nourish the Eastern Emperor’s Bell every day, the Eastern Emperor’s Bell would be able to grow and explode with tremendous power.

On the other hand, if the owner didn’t take good care of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell and didn’t even care about it, not only would the bell not grow, it would even shrink, eventually losing contact with the owner and falling back into a deep sleep.

When Linley learned of this characteristic of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, he was instantly filled with amazement.

He hadn’t imagined that there would only be such a numinous treasure in the world?

And then, from the memories of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, he learned that a long time ago, after the Taiyi era, before Gandalf, an Eastern Emperor had also been awakened by the Eastern Emperor’s Bell.

But he was a cruel and cold-blooded fellow. He had no interest in such a growing numinous treasure at all.

Not only did he not take care of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell as it grew up, he even began to wantonly extract the spiritual essence within it. (note: Spiritual treasures all have spiritual essence. The spiritual essence of a spiritual treasure is their life force. Once the spiritual essence disappears, the spiritual treasure will dry up and die…)

Thus, very quickly, because the spiritual essence of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell dried up, it fell back into a deep sleep. Only after Gandalf’s birth did the Eastern Emperor’s Bell awaken.

As for how Gandalf had awakened the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, Linley couldn’t see it.

It seemed as though Gandalf had intentionally blocked this part of the memories.

Linley couldn’t detect any connection between Gandalf and the Eastern Emperor’s Bell at all.

And right now, he was still very far away from Gandalf’s level of Realm. He couldn’t break through Gandalf’s blocked aura at all… …

“Gandalf… where exactly did this guy come from?”

“Why are there so many secrets…”

“Could he… be a transmigrator like me?”

“Or could it be that he has another system?”

Linley couldn’t help but speculate in his heart.

Naturally, he had long ago heard of the name Gandalf.

This was especially true after he had become the Eastern Emperor from the mystic place. After returning to the Li Fire Sect, he had purposefully read through quite a bit of information regarding Gandalf.

However, aside from some of the stories which everyone in the continent knew, he hadn’t found anything else.

In fact, what Linley was most interested in… was why Gandalf had suddenly gone crazy hundreds of years ago? And then sealed off all the roads leading to the North and the South?

He hadn’t been able to find out about this either.

In other words, no one in the entire continent knew the reason.

The only ten shadow guards who might have known the reason had vanished without a trace, as though they had evaporated from the continent after Gandalf had disappeared.

The only thing left behind was the sect which Gandalf had personally founded: The Eastern Rising Sect, which had been developed under the leadership of Gandalf’s daughter.

However, because there were no experts in the sect, the development of the Eastern Rising Sect had not been good over the years. From the very beginning, its influence had spread throughout the entire East, and its members numbered in the millions.

Until now, the influence of the sect had shrunk. Its core members were less than 100, and there were less than 20,000 members left in the sect.

The speed of its decline was truly regrettable…

One had to know that five hundred years ago, the Eastern Rising Sect was known as the number one sect in the continent.

Although the Northdark Sect and the Southern Barbarian tribe were large sects, they had to avoid the Eastern Rising Sect whenever they encountered them.

Looking at the current situation, the Northdark Sect had 128 northern underworld emissaries, and the weakest one was at the Sage level.

As for the 36 Southern Barbarian Kings, all of them were at the Great Sage level or above.

This difference….was truly like Heaven and Earth….

Shaking his head, Linley came back to his senses from his memories. He no longer thought about the trifling matters of the other sects.

Instead, he focused on the Eastern Emperor’s Bell itself.

He began to think about how he could increase the spirituality of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell and accelerate its growth.

But right at this moment, a new system notification rang out:

“Congratulations, owner, you have successfully activated the Eastern Emperor’s Bell! Obtain ten experience cards to upgrade the Eastern Emperor’s Bell!”

“Note: The Eastern Emperor’s Bell upgrade experience card is a one-time consumable item. Each time you use one, you will gain 500 experience points for the Eastern Emperor’s Bell.”

“Accumulate experience points, the Eastern Emperor’s Bell will continue to level up!”

“The highest level of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell is level 100.”

“The current level of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell: Level 1,”

“The experience points of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell is as follows: 0/100.”

“In addition to the experience card, the owner can also play interactive games with the Eastern Emperor’s Bell every day to increase its experience points. Currently, there are three types of interactive games:

Touch the head (as the name implies, touch the head of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell to increase intimacy)

Magical Bathing (using magical energy to irrigate the Eastern Emperor’s Bell, causing it to grow stronger and stronger)

Battle observation (bringing the Eastern Emperor’s Bell to watch the final battle of an expert, allowing it to continuously activate the hidden defensive properties of its body)”

A series of system notifications rang out.

At the same time, Linley discovered that in his mind’s system backpack, there were ten golden experience value increasing cards.

As for himself, he was stunned.

Right now, in his mind, there were only three letters.

“WTF???”

What the hell was this?

Experience upgrade cards?

Interactive little games?

System, are you sure this isn’t a game pet?

This familiar operation was clearly the type of training game he had played in his previous life!

Linley couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of insults.

However, despite the insults, Linley didn’t have any objections to this method of increasing the experience points of the Eastern Emperor’s Bell!

As for the reason, to put it simply…

He was a lifelong fan of nurturing-type games!

In the pugilistic world, it wasn’t about fighting and killing. It was about living a good life.

This sort of touching of the head, watching battles, and so on, was what I loved to do the most!

If in the future there are any more spiritual treasures of this type, please don’t forget me!

Linley put his hands on his hips, then raised his head to the sky and laughed!!

Hahahhaha!

…

After a long time, when he came back to his senses from his excitement, he focused, then directly pulled out those ten experience cards from the system interface.

If there was a reward, he didn’t have to wait for anything?

Did he have to wait until he was moldy?

“System, use all ten experience cards!”
