Chapter 262: 262: Luck Test



“Nuwa, Fuxi… this is also the first time I’ve heard of this,” Azure Dragon said thoughtfully, turning to Tianyi beside him as if inquiring.

“I have never heard of it either,” Tianyi shook his head lightly and then added, “However, according to the description of the prison in Heaven, it may indeed be related to the ‘Nuwa Emperor’ and ‘Fuxi Emperor’ worshipped by the Youhuang Sect.”

The others also engaged in various discussions about this.

However, no one was particularly concerned about this and soon they resumed reporting on other matters.

After all, although the true identities of Nuwa Emperor and Fuxi Emperor might involve ancient secrets, firstly, the Youhuang Sect was not a heretical sect and secondly, this matter was not of much help to the Zhou Tian Boundary Officer and the crises Da Qi faced, so it was normal to not give it importance.

Only Zhou Heng silently noted this matter, planning to find the prison officer alone after the gathering to chat about the Xuan Teng realm and Nuwa and Fuxi.

The situations reported by many Star Officers and Star Envoys were mostly about the extent of the worlds’ contamination by evil creatures and some special cultivation methods.

Zhou Heng was not particularly interested in this.

After this phase ended, the long-awaited exchange meeting finally began.

At this time, the situation in the great hall changed drastically; in the blink of an eye, it became a vast square, with preset stalls already in place.

Although the most significant transactions of the exchange meeting were still those good deeds exchanged for treasures scheduled in advance, there were still many people who brought some idle items to sell.

If one wanted to sell something, one just needed to go to a stall and set up shop.

“Such divine skills, as if changing heaven and earth, are astonishing,” Zhou Heng looked around at the scenery and couldn’t help but click his tongue in wonder and said to Cheng Jianjian beside him, “Beidou, is there anything you want to buy?”

“I don’t have any particular plan to purchase; I need to browse first and see what’s available before deciding,” Cheng Jianjian said with a smile, “I still have quite a bit of good deeds left, so I’ll see if there’s anything that catches my eye.”

“Oh, how many good deeds do you still have?” Zhou Heng was a little curious.

“I didn’t pay much attention to counting it, but it should be over thirty thousand,” Cheng Jianjian replied casually while her gaze was on the surrounding stalls.

Thirty, over thirty thousand… Zhou Heng was rendered speechless, indeed this girl was really wealthy, both in the secular world and within the organization.

At that moment, a few people happened to pass by, one a Star Officer and three Star Envoys. After hearing Cheng Jianjian’s words, the expressions under their masks were stunned.

And they deeply doubted their own “money-making” ability.

Thirty thousand, ah!

Why could a Seventh Rank Warrior come up with over thirty thousand good deeds??

That was outrageous.

Noticing the mentality of these few people beside him, Zhou Heng hurriedly took Cheng Jianjian to a stall nearby to avoid any further stimulation.

Showing off one’s wealth was shameful, even if it was an unconscious show off.

However, just as he stopped, he suddenly noticed something interesting about the items for sale at this stall.

They were actually black boxes.

There were a total of thirty or forty of them.

Each of these black boxes was set with prohibitions that isolated divine sense perception, preventing one from peering into what was inside the box.

The stall was manned by two people, one with a mask painted with a long spear, and the other with a mask painted with a pike, who were “Tian Qiang” and “Xuan Ge,” two Star Officers.

During the time in Yuanhe Prefecture City, Zhou Heng had met these two individuals, with Xuan Ge even inviting him to join the Zhou Tian Boundary Officer.

However, these two did not know that Zhou Heng later joined the Zhou Tian Boundary Officer at the invitation of the Emperor’s inner seat, and naturally, they were unaware of the true identity of this Ziwei Master.

Seeing someone coming over, Xuan Ge introduced with a smile, “Welcome to both of you, these boxes are a fresh new play we put together for the stall, and it is quite interesting.

“Inside the boxes are items of varying value, from ordinary herbs to Middle Third Rank spiritual materials or rare martial arts; they all have a uniform price of one hundred good deeds. The quality of the item in the box you get is entirely up to luck, how about it?”

Isn’t this just a blind box?

Zhou Heng’s expression under the mask was bemused as he looked at Tian Qiang and Xuan Ge and chuckled, “That’s indeed quite interesting, did you come up with this yourselves?”

“It was Tian Qiang’s idea,” Xuan Ge laughed, “Is the Master interested?”

“Indeed I am,” Zhou Heng nodded lightly and scanned the boxes, and while his eyes swept past, he suddenly said to Xuan Ge, “Give me ten of them.”

“Ah?” Xuan Ge was taken aback and exclaimed, “Ten? That would be a thousand good deeds, Master, are you sure you want ten?”

A thousand good deeds were definitely not a small amount.

For a Seventh Rank Warrior, that was equivalent to slaying ten Seventh Rank ghosts or evil creatures!

— Creatures of the same rank posed great threats; almost every fight was a life-and-death battle, and one could be in mortal danger if not careful, which made obtaining good deeds very difficult.

And it was even harder for warriors of Middle Third Rank to earn good deeds, especially after reaching Sect Fifth Rank. Creatures at this level had turned into Ghost Immortals and evil spirits and were harder to deal with and not as numerous, making them harder to find.

Originally, the Fifth Rank Sect Master Fang Su had worried over a thousand good deeds and had to “borrow” from Zhou Heng.

Zhou Heng’s manner of purchase also attracted the attention of others.

Especially the owners of the nearby stalls, whose eyes were shining.

But immediately, they recalled the words of the great Tianyi and his identity, and the small ideas that had just sprung up were thus quelled.

“The Ziwei Master’s virtue is profound, and his good deeds are naturally immense,” said Tian Qiang in a soothing voice, smiling. “Xuan Ge, since the Ziwei Master wishes for ten boxes, we have no reason not to do business.”

“Alright,” Xuan Ge nodded and said, “then Ziwei Master, please pick ten boxes.”

“I’ll also take ten,” Cheng Jianjian said with a smile. “They seem quite interesting, don’t they?”

“Ah?” Xuan Ge was startled upon hearing this and looked up to see the former Tian Ji now Northern Dipper, promptly reminding him, “Northern Dipper, that will be one thousand good deeds.”

“Hmm, I’ll transfer one thousand good deeds to you,” Cheng Jianjian nodded lightly, as if it were a trivial matter.

Zhou Heng and Cheng Jianjian had each casually spent over a thousand good deeds, immediately attracting many onlookers, including those of the Fourth Rank, such as the Horn and Five Emperors’ Inner Seats.

However, no one used their Divine Sense Perception to forcibly pry, as doing so would not only spoil their own interest but also offend others.

There was simply no need to do so.

As the crowd grew larger and more people understood the rules, many became eager to try their luck.

Although one thousand good deeds was not a small amount, each box only cost one hundred, making most people willing to gamble.

Thus, the remaining boxes were quickly bought up.

Xuan Ge and Tian Qiang earned three to four thousand good deeds in an instant, almost equivalent to their income from the past few years.

After that, each “blind box” was opened, with some people delighted and others beating their chests in frustration.

The worst off only received a common hemostatic herb, while the luckiest obtained a piece of Secret Six Rank spiritual material, bursting with joy.

This was the difference in luck.

Of course, Zhou Heng and Cheng Jianjian were the focus of attention, their “blind boxes” making up more than half of the total.

And according to Tian Qiang, the Secret Six Rank spiritual material previously opened was not the best item available.

This made everyone quite expectant.

Then, Cheng Jianjian opened the blind boxes one by one, uncovering a Secret Six Rank elixir and a bottle of Seven Rank pills, which sounded a bit like a loss.

Thus, only Zhou Heng’s ten boxes remained unopened.

Aside from the blind Tian Qiang, everyone’s eyes were on these ten boxes.

Zhou Heng opened them one by one.

Ordinary herbs, iron ore, gold… One after another, the items were ordinary and unremarkable until the last box, which upon opening, revealed a burst of golden light that slowly rose on its own.

Suddenly, an extremely rich fragrance of elixirs spread, and many felt as if they were witnessing rays of golden, dazzling starlight, as if they were in the midst of the starry sky.

It was a pill.

“Thousand Star Golden Brilliance Pill, a Secret Six Rank elixir!”

“Judging by its quality, it must be at least high-grade, with a very potent effect,” someone commented.

“It is rumored that this pill aids in the formation of the Dharma Phase and is highly beneficial to Martial Artists stuck at the peak of Secret Six Rank.”

“Not only that, its potency is so strong that even Fifth Rank Sect Masters could benefit from taking it if it really is high-grade,” another exclaimed.

“The Ziwei Master’s fortune is astonishing; a pill like this would cost at least three thousand good deeds if one were to make a wish,” another remarked.

“More than three thousand. The Wishing Pool is always expensive, it could be four or five thousand,” someone else speculated.

The crowd around was buzzing with discussion.

Those familiar with Zhou Heng came over to congratulate him; one thousand good deeds for a Secret Six Rank pill, possibly high-grade, was certainly cause for celebration.

Xuan Ge and Tian Qiang also came over to thank him, declaring Zhou Heng’s immense fortune unlike any other.

Afterward, the two closed their stall and began to stroll around the trading event.

Zhou Heng and Cheng Jianjian also wandered the trading event for a while longer, purchasing some commonly used healing pills for emergencies.

During this process, they ran into Xuan Ge and Tian Qiang several times.

When the trading event ended, the gathering was almost over, with Tianyi and the Azure Dragon restoring the Purple Tenuity Palace to its original state, marking the official conclusion of the event.

However, Zhou Heng did not leave immediately but stood on a mountain peak where the Purple Tenuity Palace was located, as if waiting for someone.

“Are you waiting for Xuan Ge and Tian Qiang?” Cheng Jianjian stood beside him, smiling.

“You noticed too?” Zhou Heng smiled back.

“It wasn’t difficult,” Cheng Jianjian chuckled. “Earlier, the two of them were wandering the stalls with their newly acquired thousands of good deeds, purchasing a good number of common healing elixirs and emergency talismans.”

“Yes, these are all essentials for exploring relics or secret treasures,” Zhou Heng nodded lightly and said with a smile, “by selling those boxes, on one hand, they were raising funds, and on the other, they were likely selecting partners, choosing those with good luck…”

At this point, he paused, his gaze turned toward the foot of the mountain, “They’re coming.”
