C315 The Quasi Relic Morning Bell
C315 The Quasi Relic Morning Bell
"Brother Qi, don't keep us guessing. Tell me, how did you do it?"
Looking at Looh Heeyi's curious face, Qi Zhuohao chuckled and said, "Brother Heeyi, I have closed the Mind Thought, so this illusion formation doesn't have any effect on me. Naturally, I can break it with ease."
"What? Brother Qi, you are not joking, are you? You closed the Mind Thought?"
Looh Heeyi was shocked, and he couldn't believe it. If a martial artist closed the Mind Thought, wouldn't they become an idiot? But Qi Zhuohao was very normal. How could he have the appearance of an idiot?
"Brother Qi, don't try to trick me. Close the Mind Thought. How is this possible?"
Seeing that Looh Heeyi did not believe him, Qi Zhuohao could only say, "Brother Heeyi, nothing is impossible. Do you know how to feel? It's the second Mind Thought. I have condensed my mind, so the Mind Thought that closes the main body won't affect me. "
"Mind? The second Mind Thought?" Looh Heeyi had a surprised expression. He had never heard of these things before!
It was no wonder that Looh Heeyi was not a Heart Cultivation martial artist, and even ordinary Heart Cultivation Method martial artists did not have the introduction of the mind, nor did they have the method to condense the mind. Ordinary people really did not know about the second Mind Thought.
Qi Zhuohao didn't want to explain too much to Looh Heeyi, and Looh Heeyi wouldn't understand even if he explained too much. He waved his hand and said, "Brother Heeyi, you just need to know that what I said is true. That's enough. Alright, follow me. Let's go to the center and find the Fire Attribute Raw Stone. "
Qi Zhuohao was also very helpless. If he still had enough profound energy, there was no need for him to condense the second Mind Thought. When he used the Fire God's Fury, he was completely unaffected by all formations, and had the same effect as when he used the second Mind Thought, the 'mind'.
Of course, Qi Zhuohao was very happy because of this. Unfortunately, his mind could only deal with the illusion formation. It was useless against other formations, and it wasn't as heaven defying as the Fire God's Fury!
After saying that, Qi Zhuohao did not give Looh Heeyi the chance to ask any more questions. He walked to the next Illusory Nether Stone and casually grabbed it. Then, he tossed it to Looh Heeyi.
Seeing this, Looh Heeyi shook his head and smiled bitterly. He could only follow Qi Zhuohao and collect the Illusory Nether Stone. So many Illusory Nether Stone were a huge amount of wealth! Of course, using Illusory Nether Stone to refine artifacts was very difficult, and the consumption was too great. After refining over a dozen of such Illusory Nether Stone, one would be able to obtain an artifact's refining material, the Phantasm Essence. These Illusory Nether Stone were actually not considered much.
In less than an hour, Qi Zhuohao had already brought Looh Heeyi to the mouth of the volcano in the center of Heavenly Fire Pit. Along the way, Qi Zhuohao had broken more than thirty illusory magic formations and obtained a total of thirty-two Illusory Nether Stone.
These Illusory Nether Stone were only a small part of the Heavenly Fire Pit. The Heavenly Fire Pit was filled with illusory magic formations everywhere. This was a heaven defying method used by the one who deployed the formation to prevent outsiders from heading to the center of Heavenly Fire Pit. Qi Zhuohao wasn't in a hurry to collect the other Illusory Nether Stone.
However, just as Qi Zhuohao broke through the illusory magic formation that was very close to the crater, all the other Illusory Nether Stone in the Heavenly Fire Pit suddenly disappeared. Qi Zhuohao and Looh Heeyi were both shocked. All the illusory magic formations had disappeared!
Soon, Qi Zhuohao and Looh Heeyi understood that there were hundreds of illusion formations here. It was estimated that all the illusion formations that were connected to the center of Heavenly Fire Pit had been broken. The rest of the illusion formations were hidden and had lost their effectiveness.
Qi Zhuohao and Looh Heeyi could only think this way. They were very disappointed that the illusion formation had disappeared. They had lost hundreds of Illusory Nether Stone!
The magma in the volcano was boiling, but the high temperature did not affect Qi Zhuohao and Looh Heeyi much. Qi Zhuohao let out a heavy sigh. He retracted his gaze and began to carefully observe the surroundings of the volcano.
The circular crater was only about twenty feet in diameter, and it was not very wide. Qi Zhuohao could see everything clearly with a single glance. There were three fiery-red stones on the rocks near the crater. They stood side by side, and they were all Heavenly Material treasures.
Above the boiling magma, there was a huge black bell floating in the air. The large bell was nine feet and nine inches tall, and it was very large! Also, there was a huge oval Stone Egg several feet away from the crater. Other than that, there was nothing else here!
"Brother Qi, there really is a Fire Attribute Raw Stone here!" Looh Heeyi's tone was filled with joy. He recognized the three fire-red Heavenly Material treasures. One of them was the Fire Attribute Raw Stone, and the other two were the Volcano Flame Nucleus and the Fire Ginger Stone.
Qi Zhuohao nodded his head. The shape of the Fire Attribute Raw Stone was like a millstone. It wasn't big, only a few feet tall. The Fire Attribute Raw Stone could only be used to refine the Four Directional Devil Suppressing Monument. Although it was rare, its use was really small.
Taking a few steps forward, Qi Zhuohao directly grabbed the Fire Attribute Raw Stone and the Fire Ginger Stone. And... He threw them to Looh Heeyi. Their goal for this trip had been achieved. Qi Zhuohao was very satisfied. Of course, he had already anticipated that there would be Fire Attribute Raw Stone here.
"Brother Heeyi, I'll leave the Fire Attribute Raw Stone to you for safekeeping. You and I will each have one Flaming Ginger Stone and Volcano Flame Nucleus."
After saying that, Qi Zhuohao directly refined the Volcano Flame Nucleus and stored it into the Martial Essence Space. The Volcano Flame Nucleus contained the Qi of Profound Fire. He couldn't give it to Looh Heeyi. As for the Fire Ginger Stone, it was only a fire-attribute Heavenly Material treasure for refining, and it didn't contain the Qi of Profound Fire. It was useless to him.
Looh Heeyi's face was full of smiles. He did not show any courtesy to Qi Zhuohao. One should know that Qi Zhuohao had given him half of the 32 Illusory Nether Stone. Logically speaking, these things should belong to Qi Zhuohao. There was no need for Qi Zhuohao to give them to him. Qi Zhuohao's generosity had greatly increased Looh Heeyi's impression of him. There was no need to say anything about this friend of his!
"Brother Heeyi, this big bell is actually a Half Divine Artifact! Who do you think placed it here?"
Raising his head and carefully examining the large black bell above the magma, Qi Zhuohao was very puzzled. If a Half Divine Artifact was placed in the Great Desolate, it would definitely attract countless experts to fight over it. Just who was the one who placed the large bell here?
At this moment, Qi Zhuohao seemed to have understood something. That expert had set up so many illusory magic formations. His goal should be to protect the black bell. In other words... The giant bell hadn't been completely refined. It needed to be nourished by the high temperature of the magma.
The Half Divine Artifact was not like an Earth Rank weapon, and it was extremely troublesome to refine. There were some very powerful Half Divine Artifact that could only be refined after the weapon was completed. It also needed to be nourished by flames or high temperature for a very long time before it could be truly refined. Clearly, this large bell was a very powerful Half Divine Artifact!
The large bell had already been completely refined at this time. It was unknown how many years it had been suspended in the air above the volcanic magma.
Lu Heyi was also like Qi Zhuohao, completely unable to understand. He pondered for a moment. He only thought of one thing. The person who refined this giant bell was the person who set up many illusion arrays. An expert who could refine Half Divine Artifact, and at the same time, a super array master. Who exactly was that person? Was he still alive?
In the face of the Half Divine Artifact Bell, it was impossible to say that Qi Zhuohao and Lu He didn't have a greedy heart. However, none of them dared to collect the ___, because they were worried that the expert who refined the ___ was still alive. If that was really the case, then they had stolen the Half Divine Artifact of that expert. That expert definitely wouldn't let them go.
After setting up so many illusionary formations to protect a Half Divine Artifact, it could be seen just how important this large bell was to that expert!
"Sigh! Brother He Yi, we really are going to enter the treasure mountain and return empty-handed, but the great bell is a Half Divine Artifact!"
Qi Zhuo Hao sighed. He really wanted to take the great bell. However, for the sake of his own safety, he endured it in the end. He was very clear about the strength of the expert who refined the great bell. He did not want to get into trouble.
Lu Heyi also had a bitter expression. Even Qi Zhuohao didn't dare to collect the big bell, much less him. Besides, he was already satisfied that he was able to obtain a fire-attribute raw stone, a Firegingzhi Stone, and sixteen Illusory Nether Stone.
"Eh? Brother Qi, this huge bell is actually a Dawn Bell? Could it be that the legend is true?"
Suddenly, Lu Heyi opened his mouth wide in shock, because he saw two small characters carved on the big bell. Wasn't that the word 'Dawn Bell'? The legend was actually true. Grandmaster Hong Yuan really refined the Half Divine Artifact, 'Dusk Drum', and 'Morning Bell!
"Dawn Bell?" Qi Zhuo Hao's expression changed. The Dawn Bell and the Twilight Drum were a set. According to the notes in Hongwu, there was a pair of supreme treasures in the heavens and the earth. They were called the Morning Bell of the Twilight Drum. The two supreme treasures were mutually reinforcing and restraining each other, and their might was boundless!
'The sound of the Drum of Dusk and the Drum of Dusk took people's lives. The Dawn Bell shook the dawn and rose. The bell rang three times, and the heaven and earth dimmed. The Dusk Drum shook everything in the world! The Drum of Dusk and the Drum of Dusk resonated, and the heaven and earth ceased to exist
This sentence was the description of the Drum of Dusk and the Bell of Dawn. Of course, this might be a little exaggerated, but it also mentioned the power of the Dusk Drum and the Dawn Bell. As well as the relationship between the Dusk Drum and Dawn Bell, the Dusk Drum and Dawn Bell needed to be used at the same time. Only then could the Dusk Drum and the Dawn Bell be used separately. They'll be restrained by each other.
According to the description in the Hongwu, the Dusk Drum and Dawn Bell could only ring two times each time. That way, the drum and bell chime would perfectly fuse together, killing people in an invisible way. This was the mutual creation of the evening drum and morning bell, sweeping across the heaven and earth and preventing plants from growing!
There were also records in the Hongwu's note. When the drum rang three times, those who heard the drum would fall into a deep sleep. They would lose their consciousness and be at the mercy of others. When the Dawn Bell rang, those who were sleeping would be completely awakened.
On the contrary, when the Dawn Bell rang three times, those who heard the bell would be controlled by the bell and become the puppet of the Dawn Bell's master. Only when the Dusk Drum rang could the Dawn Bell be removed from the control of the Dawn Bell. This was the mutual suppression of the morning bell and evening drum.
The Dusk Drum and the Dawn Bell could only ring three times each time they were used. It was the most unique and precious treasure in the world!
This was the Dawn Bell? Qi Zhuo Hao couldn't believe it. The Dawn Bell and the Dusk Drum mentioned in the notes of Hongwu were supreme treasures that could shake the heavens and the earth. How could it only be a single Half Divine Artifact?
Feeling puzzled, Qi Zhuo Hao immediately asked Lu He Yi what kind of legend Lu He Yi was talking about. Qi Zhuo Hao was very good. Strange!
As expected, Lu He sighed when he heard Qi Zhuo Hao's question. He said, "Brother Qi, this Half Divine Artifact and Dawn Bell isn't a real Dawn Bell. It is an imitation refined by a senior of my Great Desolate by Great Master Hong Yuan using the true supreme treasure, the Dusk Drum Dawn Bell. It is said that Great Master Hong Yuan was once fortunate enough to witness the true scene of the Dusk Drum Morning Bell flying over the Great Desolate Province!"
"Great Master Hong Yuan!" Qi Zhuohao somewhat understood. Great Master Hong Yuan was a very powerful person. Although he was only at a higher realm, his skill in formation and artifact forging had already reached the Heavenly Rank. These illusory formations and this huge bell were definitely Great Master Hong Yuan's masterpieces. According to the information Qi Zhuo Hao had, Grandmaster Hong Yuan was a mighty figure from thousands of years ago. He'd been dead a long time ago!
Qi Zhuo Hao had heard of the array masters and refiners of the Grand Desolate Plateau thousands of years ago, Master Hong Yuan. He admired Master Hong Yuan very much as well...
