216: Harvest

Chen Li watched Xun Xiuyuan walk step by step from the bottom of the valley, treading on air.

His aura grew stronger and stronger. In fact, Xun Xiuyuan was currently increasing his mental power and experiencing the tremendous changes in his Sea of Consciousness, completely oblivious to his continuously rising aura.

When he arrived in front of Chen Li and Zhan Tian, he saw them both looking at him with shocked expressions.

Moreover, Zhan Tian's face was flushed, as if Xun Xiuyuan's aura had already made him very uncomfortable, and he was trying his best to resist.

Upon noticing this, Xun Xiuyuan retracted his aura. Chen Li's eyes were filled with doubt, while Zhan Tian let out a deep sigh of relief.

Zhan Tian immediately asked, "Palace Master, is this a talent? A Slaughter Talent?"

Xun Xiuyuan, not knowing how to explain, simply went along with Zhan Tian's words, "It's a newly discovered talent. My strength increases after slaying enemies."

Chen Li said in disbelief, "Another talent? How many talents are you going to awaken? What level has your current strength reached?"

Xun Xiuyuan gave an awkward smile and said, "Seven Laws have merged into my body."

Xun Xiuyuan still hid some of his strength, not daring to say that eight Laws had already merged into his body.

Chen Li sighed, "My elder brother and I reached the Invincible Celestial Gods three thousand years ago. It took us three thousand years to fully comprehend the seventh Law, and although we are close to succeeding now, it is still thanks to the power of the Palace Master's pills. Don't you, Palace Master, feel that the Law Power in the later stages is difficult to merge into one's body because it will create great conflicts with the Laws that have already merged?"

Xun Xiuyuan understood Chen Li's words. For example, if the Law of Fire merged into one's body, then comprehending the Law of Water would be extremely difficult.

It would be even harder to merge it into one's body, because the Law of Fire within would conflict with the new Law of Water.

Xun Xiuyuan smiled but said nothing.

His Laws were essentially forced upon him by the system; conflicts simply didn't exist.

Zhan Tian, however, didn't care much. Seeing Xun Xiuyuan's strength made him happier than his own strength. The rise of the War God Hall was within reach.

If he knew that his own Vice Hall Master was preparing to disband the War God Hall to join the Heavenly Palace, he wondered what he would think.

At this moment, Xun Xiuyuan was very happy. He took out two Law Comprehension Pills and handed them to the two, saying, "One for each of you. Keep up the good work."

Chen Li still had one Law Comprehension Pill he hadn't used, and now he had another.

With two Comprehension Pills, there should be no problem merging his seventh Law into his body.

Afterward, the three of them led the Zhan Character Battalion back to the headquarters of Ghost Valley. Since the captives had been dealt with, there was no need for the Zhan Character Battalion to remain stationed in that cold realm.

Xun Xiuyuan, under the pretext of needing to consolidate his cultivation, directly entered a cultivation room, leaving the specific battle arrangements for Zhan Tian and Chen Li to worry about.

Upon entering the cultivation room, Xun Xiuyuan immediately used up all his lottery draws. Unfortunately, there was no prompt for a lottery system upgrade, and the lottery rewards were still the same as before.

More than forty thousand draws added over four hundred billion exotic beast value, which was not much for the current Xun Xiuyuan.

However, nearly five hundred Heavenly God Realm treasure chests appeared, along with six original world fragments. What comforted Xun Xiuyuan was that the numbers of these fragments did not overlap. He now had nine fragments, only one original world fragment (ten) short of being able to synthesize a self-selected attribute original world fragment.

In addition, a God King Realm equipment treasure chest also appeared.

Xun Xiuyuan immediately clicked on that God King Realm equipment treasure chest.

Ding dong!

Congratulations, host, you have obtained the God King Realm chaos armor.

chaos armor: Immune to most damage below the God King Realm, effectively resists God King Realm damage.

There was no introduction of any Law information, just a simple sentence.

Xun Xiuyuan had already understood the system's nature; such simply described items were often more powerful, just like the void piercing needle he obtained when he was very weak, which could still be used effectively now.

Because the void piercing needle's description was relatively simple: ignores all defenses.

Xun Xiuyuan immediately took off his god slaying armor and put on the chaos armor. This was the first God King Realm equipment he had obtained.

He then opened the more than five hundred Heavenly God Realm treasure chests. There were six or seven pieces of equipment. If they weren't suitable, he would reward them based on merit later.

There was also a soft whip, which he would give to Sister Wen.

And this sword, for Xie Nanqiao.

And this soft armor, for Xiao Ou.

Xun Xiuyuan was silently allocating these acquired Heavenly God Realm equipment in his mind.

Other talismans and items were all thrown into his backpack for later distribution.

He also gained over three hundred Law Comprehension Pills. The system was making him a warlord; the items it gave him that he couldn't use himself must be for cultivating his subordinates.

Over several days, Xun Xiuyuan organized his items and conducted thorough experiments on the changes in his Sea of Consciousness.

Xun Xiuyuan discovered that the changes in his Sea of Consciousness might be the prototype of his inner world. He didn't know what level an inner world with a diameter of several hundred kilometers was, and since he had never met a God King, he had no way to discuss it.

When Xun Xiuyuan emerged from seclusion, Chen Li and Zhan Tian were gathering the Heavenly Palace's high-ranking officials for a pre-war meeting.

When Chen Li's divine sense scanned Xun Xiuyuan emerging from seclusion, he immediately sent a voice transmission, telling Xun Xiuyuan to hurry over.

Given Xun Xiuyuan's realm, if he deliberately concealed his aura, the current Chen Li would not have been able to detect him at all.

Since he could detect him, Chen Li knew that the Palace Master's seclusion had come to an end, so he sent the voice transmission without hesitation.

By the time Xun Xiuyuan arrived, everyone was already seated.

Chen Li, Lin Batian, Wei Tieshan, Hei Bu Guan, Zhan Tian, Gui Shi, Gui Yan, and other key high-ranking officials were all in the meeting room.

The moment Xun Xiuyuan walked into the meeting room, everyone stood up to greet him.

Xun Xiuyuan smiled, pressed his hands down in a gesture, indicating for everyone to sit, then naturally took the main seat and gestured for Chen Li to begin.

Chen Li immediately said, "The Azure Wolf Domain and the surrounding dozen or so domains are the Beast Alliance's last strongholds. We must take them down. This way, the entire southern part of the Chaotic Realm will belong to the Heavenly Palace."

Then, as if suddenly remembering something, he asked Xun Xiuyuan, "Palace Master, after this battle, should we hold a grand ceremony to establish the palace and invite some forces from the Great World to observe?"

At this point, everyone below looked at Xun Xiuyuan with eager eyes.

Xun Xiuyuan pondered for a moment and said, "My plan is to unify the entire Chaotic Realm before making such arrangements. What are your opinions?"

It wasn't that Xun Xiuyuan was unwilling, but rather that he lacked confidence. Because as soon as his Heavenly Palace was established with great fanfare, God King Realm experts would set their sights on him. Before he could resist God Kings, Xun Xiuyuan wanted to develop slowly.
