Unbeatable! Invincible! Unparalleled!

He was so happy because he had finally become rich by only a single unexpected customer. He reckoned that this must be the result of his good deeds acc.u.mulating in his past lives. However, the more Duan Li spent, the more scared he becomes!

This was because even profligate scions of renown clans in the Jiu Empire that loves to waste money wouldn"t be able to casually hand all 10 High quality spirit stones like Duan Li did just now even if they want to. After all, a few hundred of Medium quality spirit stones might probably be their maximum budget per year.

As for High quality spirit stones? That depends if their elders were willing to loan them in the first place, and who would if it were to all be spent in buying antique weapons like what Duan Li just did?

Unless one wanted to be beaten to death by their clan leader, then they should probably give it a try.

"Is he... a prince of the royal family?" Na Zem Xi widened his eyes as he began sweating and his heart palpitated in nervousness upon such thoughts.

He must be!

Only a prince would have so much money to be able to waste them like this, and it is also the reason why he wears that mask...

It"s to hide his ident.i.ty as a prince of the royal family!

Gulp!

"If the royal family were to hear that their prince had spent such an enormous sum of money at my stall to buy antique weapons... I might lose my little life!" he swallowed his saliva and handed back 5 High quality spirit stones.

"Esteemed customer, because you have bought in bulk and we have already become friends, I shall give you a 50 percent discount on everything that you just bought! Here, take half of your money back!" he said quickly with a deep pain in his heart. Even though he was extremely unwilling, there were times that one had to sacrifice a little for long-term future gains, and this is called investment!

He was also tempted to kneel down before the other party as it was part of the etiquette for those of lower status like him in front of the prince, but since the other party had already gone through the trouble to don a mask, it would be foolish of him to call out the latter"s ident.i.ty.

After all, even fools should know that a person wearing a mask wants their ident.i.ty to be anonymous!

Duan Li, Shen Lu and Guo He was surprised by this unexpected gesture of goodwill, and Duan Li wanted to initially reject, but since he insisted, Duan Li finally relented and took back the 5 High quality spirit stones into his spatial ring, thinking on whether he should just throw them into a lake or something.

Still, Na Zem Xi couldn"t help but to wonder on why the prince was spending so much money over antique weapons.

It"s not as if they are peerless legendary weapons from the ancient times..

Shen Lu and Guo He was similarly curious about this, so they asked, "Brother, why do you need so much weapons? Are you trying to raise an army?"

Hearing their question, Duan Li was taken aback for a moment and finally realized that they had somehow misunderstood him.

"These weapons are all from the Empyrean dynasty. While they are not legendary, their quality aren"t actually bad at all! I planned to gift them to you guys later on." Duan Li answered.

"You want to give them to us?" Shen Lu and Guo He looked at each other, evidently unable to follow Duan Li"s train of thought. In their opinion, the weapons used and made nowadays were far more reliable and could be bought at a cheaper price too. These antiques might rival them, but they were truly nothing special, other than their steep price which was meant to be bought by enthusiast for collection purposes.

Nevertheless, they still nodded and didn"t dare to reject their Lord"s goodwill.

Naturally, how could they realize the true value of the weapons like Duan Li did?

Using his Tetra Soul Sense, Duan Li was able to a.n.a.lyze and get the accurate details of each of the weapons with a single touch of his index finger!

Weapons in the Empyrean dynasty were mostly forged from the w.a.n.g Metal, found deep inside the mouth of dormant volcanoes. While the weapons nowadays that were made of steel were comparitively sharp, they lack the powerful durability of the w.a.n.g Metal!

Duan Li didn"t know how on heaven"s name was Na Zem Xi be so lucky so as to be able to unearth so many perfectly preserved Empyrean antiques like these weapons that he just bought, but if it was just that, he still wouldn"t be bothered to buy them at all!

The reason he bought them wasn"t just because they were treasures of the Empyrean dynasty, but because the weapons he selected was in fact "named" weapons!

"Named" weapons, according to the information from the Mirealithians using his Tetra Soul Sense, were once weapons owned by legendary figures across the Tian continent. They have fought countless battlefields and made a name for themselves to the point that even their weapons were "named" by the public and became infamous!

Eventually, due to the recognition, these weapons formed a small spirit of their own to aid their masters in the battlefields, but after so many years had pa.s.sed, even the spirit of the weapon itself succ.u.mbed to their end as well!

In the end, these "named" weapons were now devoid of spirit, making it no different than ordinary weapons. However, in their place could be inserted "Power Stones", almost rare to find but not impossible to be acquired. Slowly, these power stones would nurture a new small spirit, and once they did, the weapons will be able to show their original power!

For Duan Li, he absolutely did not need them. No matter how powerful they will be in their prime, how could they rival the All-Severing Immortal White Sword dangling on his right earlobe right now? Not to mention that he also has the All-Slaying Eternal Great Axe! If he could use them to their full potential, even the Tian continent could be cleaved in half!

In addition, he cultivated all three of his dantians, possessed a few mysterious pearls inside his body, and the ability to slow down time.

All these combined could pretty much make him an overly-powered figure in the world, but his followers were different than him.

Despite being boosted by his blood so that they only needed to temper their body once every realm instead of every stage in a realm, and that their cultivation rate becoming significantly faster, they could still easily die if they fought against Nascent Soul realm experts!

With a spirit weapon in hand, although they might not necessarily be able to defeat them, they could still put up a fight! Moreover, such weapons would ensure their victory against other experts once they reached the Nascent Soul realm!

Turning to Na Zem Xi, Duan Li stared at the latter intently before asking, "How are you able to get these weapons in huge quant.i.ty? All of them are top notch weapons despite being ancient..."

"Hahaha! Esteemed customer is truly talented, to be able to determine their quality so accurately like that, you must be an Appraiser cla.s.s yourself!" Na Zem Xi first fawned over Duan Li before replying seriously, "Esteemed customer, it was actually a stroke of luck for me at that time..."

He then explained that, when he was travelling at the edges of the Red Desert, one of the forbidden region in the Tian continent, his caravan got attacked by wild beast which forced him to retreat into the Red Desert. The Red Desert was known to cause one to quickly become dehydrated because of its searing temperature both day and night, and he almost died unable to escape the desert after losing his sense of direction in it for a week.

However, as luck would have it, one of the sand dune hills happened to swallow him underground, where he found many skeletons with their weapons gripped tightly in their hand, appearing to be unwilling to part with their weapon even in their death. Moved into tears by this sight, he s.n.a.t.c.hed their weapon and stowed them away to sell them somewhere, so that the legacy of the dead could continue on.

But who could have thought that his good intentions caused the dead skeletons to raise themselves from the ground and wanted to pummel him to death instead?

Thus he ran and ran, and when he slipped and hit a wall, the wall began to swallow him whole. Seeing that he was escaping, one of the skeleton appeared to become really indignant and dislodged its own arm to throw at his head from the distance, swiftly knocking him unconscious.

The next time he remembered, he woke up at the outskirts of the Red Desert and managed to survive somehow.

"..." Duan Li, Shen Lu and Guo He.
