Chapter 220: Rich! (2/2)
“Spiritual Tool! Soul Tool! Haha! So many Spiritual and Soul Tools? I’m going to be a rich guy this time!” Cheng Yu already had a rough estimate of the Amethyst Palace’s wealth, but he had never expected it to have so many Spiritual Tools. He estimated that there was at least hundreds of them and five Soul Tools! While looking around, Cheng Yu saw a storage type magic item. It was a pagoda Soul Tool.
“Heaven is helping me as well. With this pagoda, is there a need for me to worry about not being able to bring the treasures away?” Cheng Yu stretched his hand out to take it. However, the pagoda actually flew up and dashed out of the room.
“Pointless escape!” Cheng Yu’s expression changed. He stopped at the entrance and chopped down.
“Bang!” Cheng Yu’s sword was broken into pieces. “Pu!” The pagoda did not stop as it knocked Cheng Yu, sending Cheng Yu back into the spiritual stone treasure room.
“M*th*rf*ck*r. D*mn it!” Cheng Yu coughed out a mouthful of blood. When he saw the pagoda had flown out of the secret room, he immediately grew anxious. A phantom fist image struck the pagoda.
“Clang!” The pagoda received Cheng Yu’s attack. However, this pagoda did not seem to have any hesitation as it continued flying out.
“Clang!” Cheng Yu appeared in front of the pagoda as he punched out once again. The pagoda paused for a moment before charging at Cheng Yu once again. Cheng Yu used both his hands to resist the pagoda. Green Qi armor condensed on his body. But with a bang, he was sent flying off again.
This was a Soul Tool. How could Cheng Yu be willing to give it up? He had to subdue it even if he had to risk his life. However, Cheng Yu’s strength was truly too weak. When he saw the pagoda had flown over, he knew he could not withstand the next attack.
This time, the pagoda did not strike him, but stopped above him. It grew bigger, as it suffused with golden rays. It then pressed down on Cheng Yu. Cheng Yu turned pale from fright. “Swish!” all of a sudden, a purple key flew out from Cheng Yu’s body. It also grew bigger, bathing itself with intense purple radiance. Just when Cheng Yu thought that he would be suppressed, the golden rays on the pagoda actually disappeared as it grew smaller, returning into Cheng Yu’s bosom.
“This…” When the purple key returned to Cheng Yu’s body, Cheng Yu looked at the golden pagoda in a daze. The whole situation had happened too quickly and Cheng Yu felt that he was going mad.
“Are you guys trying to tease me? If this continues, sooner or later I will be toyed to death!” Cheng Yu held onto the pagoda with an helpless expression.
“Forget it, I shall keep you first,” Cheng Yu got up as he quickly started refining this pagoda. Spending about an hour, Cheng Yu finally completely refined it. After dripping a few drops of blood on it, the blood disappeared. With a golden flash, it flew into Cheng Yu’s body.
“Finally it’s done. If it were to escape, the losses would be too big,” Feeling the pagoda had synthesized with his body, Cheng Yu liked it a lot.
“Soul Suppressing Pagoda? Not bad. This name seems very cool. It turns out that the soul of this tool is injured. D*mn it. Luckily you are injured. Otherwise, I would have died,” Cheng Yu was able to feel a weak consciousness within the Soul Suppressing Pagoda. Immediately, he understood why this Soul Tool’s power so weak. Cheng Yu observed the Soul Suppressing Pagoda for a while. There was a total of nine stories. The first story was a large independent space. Seeing this, Cheng Yu grinned. With such a big space, no matter how much stuff, he would still be able to store it there.
The biggest difference between a Soul Tool and a Spiritual Tool was that a Soul Tool had already grown its own spirit and the spirit had its own consciousness. The spirit was able to control the Soul Tool itself. A Spiritual Tool only needed blood to recognize its master, but a Soul Tool needed its owner to refine the tool first, making it acknowledge you. Furthermore, the owner had to cleanse the Soul Tool’s aura before dripping blood to recognize its master, letting it fuse together with the tool.
The tools that were ranked above Soul Tools would not be subdued so easily. Like just now, without refining it, the spirit had total control of the Soul Tool. Being so weak, how could the Soul Tool be willing to recognize Cheng Yu as its master? Naturally it would want to escape. If it was not because of the purple key suppressing it suddenly, Cheng Yu would have been suppressed by the Soul Suppressing Pagoda instead.
Originally, it was thought that this purple key was only able to unlock the secret chambers. He never expected that it had some control over other matters here, allowing it to save him. Otherwise, Cheng Yu would never be able to subdue the other four Soul Tools. Discovering this secret, Cheng Yu held onto the key, slowly subduing the four Soul Tools one by one. The four Soul Tools were low-grade purple light sword, low-grade devourer painting, low-grade jewels cauldron and the one and only mid-grade Nine Dragons Heavenly Bracelet.
However, other than the Nine Dragons Heavenly Bracelet, the others had all been refined by Cheng Yu. With these tools on hand, although he was still unable to utilize the full power of this Soul Tool, even if he were to face the Golden Core Realm expert now, Cheng Yu still had the confidence to survive. It might be impossible to kill him, but there was no longer a need for him to hide. This time, if he were to come across the old man from Kunlun, Cheng Yu wanted to duel him as dense fighting spirit was revealed in his eyes.
