Chapter 2137: Chapter 785: Rewards for Meritorious Service, the Third Generation Sect Master
"Zeng Yilong, you have protected the sect with great merit, and your will is unwavering. In the time of turmoil, you stood forward, living up to the hopes your father had for you before his passing. I bestow upon you a pair of Ascendant Grade Flying Treasures, the Breaking Moon Wings, and an Offense Magic Item, the Ten Thousand Jun Halberd!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Zeng Yilong suddenly
looked up, disbelief in his eyes as he gazed at the figure above.
A gentle laugh echoed forth.
"What are you standing there for?"
Zeng Yilong’s body trembled slightly as he quickly stepped forward, half bowing.
"Thank you, Supreme, for the reward!"
Two streams of light gently floated in front of him, accompanied by Luo Chen’s voice in his ear.
"The Breaking Moon Wings are something I personally refined over many years, paired with the Speed technique I taught you in your early years, the speed is extremely fast. Moreover, this treasure is not only adept at flying speeds but also has considerable offensive capabilities. I have already cleared all personal marks from it, so you may use the Blood Drop Recognition to claim it as your own and refine it well."
Zeng Yilong’s eyes shone brightly as he carefully accepted the Breaking Moon Wings.
Back then, he saw Luo Chen commissioning experts in Tian Fan City to refine the Breaking Moon Wings, and casually gifted him a defective wing.
Regrettably, that wing accompanied him through a century of battles, ultimately collapsing on the Battle Platform.
Unexpectedly, a better one arrived in the blink of an eye!
And this great halberd...
Zeng Yilong instinctively reached out to take it, and then...
Thud!
His grip slipped, and the great halberd plummeted straight to the ground, creating a pit in the tough bluestone.
Had he not forcedly gripped the handle, the halberd might have embedded itself.
Under numerous watchful eyes, his face flushed with embarrassment.
Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Infuse it with your Gang Qi and then wield it."
Zeng Yilong suddenly understood, quickly obediently performing the instructions.
It’s not that he was dull; rather, it is because the weapons specifically crafted for body refiners in today’s Immortal Cultivation World are far too few. Almost all magic items are fueled by Qi Power, hence he instinctively hadn’t infused it with Qi-blood power.
As he infused it with Gang Qi, the incredibly heavy Ten Thousand Jun Halberd was gradually lifted inch by inch.
The more he lifted, the more excited he became.
"This halberd is so heavy, so large, so powerful!"
"If I master this halberd and pair it with the high-speed of the Breaking Moon Wings, even Middle Stage Golden Core cultivators might not be my match!"
Luo Chen glanced at Zeng Yilong, seeing that he had grasped the knack and then paid no further attention.
In giving these two treasures, he did not feel any regret.
The potential of the Breaking Moon Wings is not limited to just being an Ascendant Grade Magic Item, but its growth speed could no longer keep up with him.
The Ten Thousand Jun Halberd is remarkable, but he is not inherently a pure Physical Cultivator. Previously, he wielded it purely through the unmatched strength of his Fourth Order Physique. It’s better to give it to someone more suitable, so its edge can be better realized.
As one of the two young leaders of the Luo Tian Sect’s new generation, especially having watched Zeng Yilong grow from a child right before his eyes, he deserves such treasures.
As for the other young leader?
Luo Chen’s eyes held complex emotions as he gazed at another extraordinary-looking, yet slightly melancholic young man.
"Qin Yuanjiang."
Qin Yuanjiang was taken aback; he had not expected that there would be a share for him in today’s awarding of merits?
He stepped forward apprehensively.
Observing the face that carried a certain masculinity of Qin Liangchen and some of Murong Qinglian’s grace, Luo Chen sighed gently.
"It’s easy to add flowers to a brocade but difficult to send coal in the snow. You were willing to join this sect in its low times, and for many years, you have not left or forsaken it, reflecting a chivalrous heart. Today, I grant you three volumes of Puppet Secret Manual."
"Thank you, Supreme Elder."
Qin Yuanjiang bowed and accepted the three books that looked like they had been freshly recorded. Just as he was about to put them away, he instinctively glanced at Luo Chen.
"Xiao Hu, cultivate well, and do not become slack!"
Qin Yuanjiang was momentarily stunned, but Luo Chen had already started rewarding others.
Qin Yuanjiang retreated to the rear, glancing puzzledly at the three manuals.
Two were indeed Puppet Secret Manuals, with a rather ancient style, presumably from ancient times.
But the last one made his pupils contract and heart quake.
"This Divine Soul Splitting technique, how does it resemble the legends of secret techniques from the Luo Yun Sect?"
In astonishment, he raised his head to look at the young man.
The other paid no attention to his gaze, announcing the rewards to those who had contributed over the last century with vibrant declarations. The treasures revealed were dazzling to all.
"Min Longyu, for your dedicated and unwavering efforts in protecting the sect, I specifically grant you a God Sealing Compass, containing three major arrays and eighteen minor arrays. Additionally, a volume of the ’Stone Chamber Immortal Mechanism’ Array Book!"
"Li Yingzhang, through arduous toil, neither rushed nor slacked, and turned the tide in times of peril. I grant you a fourth-order Water Method scroll, several Third Order pills, and further bestow upon you the Canglan Magic Robe, Sea Suppressing Pearl, Fire Avoidance Cover, Treasure-dropping Copper Coin, and Dragon Rearing Basin, five magic items."
"Yang Pingdu, for your loyal dedication in protecting the sect. I grant you a fourth-order Earth Method scroll, several pills, and additionally bestow upon you a set of Earth Yellow Banner!"
Each item was dazzling to the eyes.
Each name mentioned was both logical yet somewhat unexpected.
Like Qin Yuanjiang who joined afterwards or Yang Pingdu, who also received generous rewards.
However, some individuals had yet to hear their names called.
Fu Jiusheng remained composed, Chu Kui sat restlessly, Qu Lingjun kept his head lowered, emotions uncertain.
Suddenly.
"Fu Jiusheng, Chu Kui!"
The two instinctively looked up at Luo Chen, their three pairs of eyes meeting dispelling any dark thoughts from their minds.
"Two old friends, Luo did not doubt you. Even after my departure, you are still willing to protect this sect, unlike the ambitious wanderer, Di Wuqi."
"Once, we marched side by side. Now, Luo has achieved the Primordial Truth first and hopes that you will swiftly catch up."
"Specifically granted, a complete set of Nascent Soul Formation techniques!"
Fu Jiusheng and Chu Kui were stunned, full of disbelief.
