Chapter 168 - 163: The New Spirit Stone Mine Vein (4/5)
Mei Yixiang left in a hurry after sitting for only a short while. The reason was that she had received a report from her subordinates saying that a pig with five legs had been spotted somewhere. She immediately rushed off excitedly to see it.
This woman!
Zhou Heng simply couldn’t fathom this woman’s character. She was ever-changing, but overall, it seemed that her ability to cause trouble was quite strong. It was wiser to provoke this troublemaker less. Although she was indeed very beautiful and her status was incomparably noble, Zhou Heng did not want to be constantly worried and bothered.
He entered the Nine Mystic Trial Tower and went directly to the second floor, beginning the refinement of the weapons he had just acquired.
Out of the hundred plus weapons, only nine were magic artifacts; the rest were all of Upper Grade Mortal Artifacts. Zhou Heng looked at the materials they were made of and found them extraordinary, so he bought them all. After all, they didn’t cost much.
With the ability of the Gold Devouring Clan activated, he began plundering the essence from these weapons.
Shoo, shoo, shoo. First, the Mortal Artifacts, unprotected by formations, were completely dead objects, and their essences were immediately extracted by Zhou Heng, turning into streams of particles that entered his body—diverse in color and mottled in hues.
The nine magic artifacts, being protected by formations, had their Artifact Spirits launch counterattacks immediately. However, the highest realm among these nine artifacts was only at the Initial Separation Rank, so how could they be a match for Zhou Heng? He didn’t even need to use the Black Sword; he simply crushed the formations, and the nine magic artifacts instantly turned into Mortal Artifacts.
Combined, these weapons could not compare with the purple bell. Zhou Heng didn’t have to cut his own flesh; in just over ten minutes, he had devoured all the weapons, turning them to dust. Inside Zhou Heng’s body, however, appeared a colored bead smaller than a grain of rice.
With a thought, the bead dispersed, merging into the bones throughout his body, continuing to enhance his body’s strength and power.
