Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 1409: Chapter 1408: End of the Second Phase!

”Here you go.”

Su Han directly tossed the storage ring to Huang Xuan.

Huang Xuan caught it with a smile, and was instantly stunned after sweeping it with his Divine Sense.

”Senior Brother Su, this... isn’t this too much?”

”As a friend of mine, Su Han, you should take this much.”

Su Han glanced at the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion crowd not far away, seemingly intending for them to hear these words.

”Moreover, although the second phase of the assessment ranks according to the quantity of the task items, at most it’s a limit of one hundred thousand. The additional ones you have, if you’re willing to submit, can be exchanged for some items within the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion. If you’re not willing, then keep them; you’ll use them sooner or later. Although the spiritual energy inside isn’t as much as Spirit Crystals, it’s still considerable.”

”Thanks so much, Senior Brother Su!” Huang Xuan was extremely excited.

A full one million Woodcore Stones, how many items could that exchange for in the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion? Just thinking about it made him tremble.

And this was precisely why Su Han insisted on demanding the Woodcore Stones from the Sect of the Supreme Shadow; his own Woodcore Stones had long been sufficient.

The Heavenly Mountain Pavilion was quite certain that these assessors couldn’t possibly obtain too many Woodcore Stones in three days; forget one hundred thousand; even ten thousand, or five thousand might be out of reach.

Therefore, the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion set a limit of one hundred thousand; if more were actually obtained, they could be exchanged for other items at the pavilion.

They could exchange for Spirit Crystals, Star Crystals, and the like.

Naturally, if an exception arose, such as three people all acquiring over one hundred thousand Woodcore Stones, the one with the most would naturally be the first in this assessment.

Su Han was precisely such an exception.

The Woodcore Stones he possessed numbered over six million, all ’contributed’ by the Sect of the Supreme Shadow, plus those he had previously acquired, totaling about seven million!

”As expected, killing is indeed the fastest way...” Su Han mused to himself.

In the silence, Su Han looked over at the group from the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion.

Their faces all showed a bit of awkwardness; they hadn’t expected Su Han to be this powerful.

One person single-handedly drove tens of thousands to either flee, hand over their Woodcore Stones, or face death!

If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it!

And at this moment, many people were regretting in their hearts, wondering why they hadn’t acted like Huang Xuan before.

If they had, might they also have obtained a lot of Woodcore Stones?

They had seen with their own eyes that the Woodcore Stones handed over by the Sect of the Supreme Shadow definitely numbered in the millions, and just a bit leaking through Su Han’s fingers meant Huang Xuan could get hundreds of thousands, even over a million.

Such an enormous quantity, why hadn’t they gone to help Su Han, why hadn’t they!!!

”Ahem...”

Someone coughed lightly, stepped forward, and said to Su Han: ”Senior Brother Su, um... may I buy some Woodcore Stones from you?”

Hearing this, a glint appeared in Su Han’s eyes; his indifferent expression vanished, replaced by a smile.

”Of course, ten Spirit Crystals for one Woodcore Stone, how about it?”

Upon hearing this, the person who spoke was instantly frozen in place.

Ten Spirit Crystals for one Woodcore Stone...

You’re outright robbing!

The spiritual power within a Woodcore Stone would require maybe three or four to equal one Spirit Crystal, and now you’re selling it at ten per one?

Might as well die!!!

But this time, the task item isn’t Spirit Crystals; it’s Woodcore Stones!

Cursing Su Han’s ancestors to the eighteenth generation in their heart, to acquire enough task items to qualify for the third phase, the person still nodded and said, ”Alright.”

What choice did they have?

Rob Su Han?

That would be courting death.

Not buy?

Without buying, the Woodcore Stones they had clearly weren’t enough!

Thus, Su Han sat cross-legged on the ground and began his business.

One Woodcore Stone, ten Spirit Crystals; buy it if you want!

Many people came over, faces pained, to exchange some Woodcore Stones from Su Han.

To be honest, they didn’t have many Spirit Crystals either, never mind when they hadn’t ascended; they couldn’t get Spirit Crystals, and after ascending...

Even while raising Spirit Beasts, they only got one a year.

Of course, some people failed the last assessment and had been here for a thousand years, acquiring a thousand Spirit Crystals.

These Spirit Crystals, they hadn’t been willing to use, and now they were extorted by Su Han...

Each person only exchanged a few dozen Woodcore Stones at most from Su Han.

But sometimes, those few dozen Woodcore Stones could be the deciding factor on whether they made it to the third phase!

Watching Su Han’s almost rob-like business, Huang Xuan felt a surge of envy.

He wanted to sell like that, but didn’t have the courage, for he lacked Su Han’s aptitude and strength.

If he sold like that, these people might hold grudges against him, who knows what they’d do to him later.

...

Two hours later, the people from the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion dispersed.

With one last night left, they had to give it their all in finding Woodcore Stones.

Meanwhile, Su Han and Huang Xuan lay on the ground, comfortably watching the night sky, utterly at ease.

Huang Xuan felt like he was dreaming.

One million Woodcore Stones, even if exchanged for Spirit Crystals, would get at least three hundred thousand.

For him, such a massive quantity was truly beyond his imagination on how to spend it.

At this moment, he had nothing but utmost admiration for Su Han, wishing he could hug and kiss Su Han.

...

In casual conversation, a night passed.

At the break of dawn, sunlight arose, and a grand drumbeat began to resound in the sky over the Savage Forest Star.

People scattered across various regions of the Savage Forest Star lifted their heads, gazing into the Void.

The enormous, previously sealed channel now began to slowly open.

”The assessment is over. Those involved in the second phase assessment of the Heavenly Mountain Pavilion, return immediately!”

Grand Elder Xiaoyaozi’s voice passed through the channel, reaching everyone’s ears.

”Damn, my luck was just terrible, only got less than two hundred Spirit Crystals in three days!”

”Heh, I’m a bit better, got over three hundred. I wonder if that’s enough.”

”Is the assessment over already? That was fast...”

Some were joyful, some were sorrowful, there were many with bad luck, many with good, and many had died miserably here.

”Senior Brother Su, shall we go?”

Huang Xuan quickly scrambled up, saying to Su Han, ”You have no idea; I spent the whole night excited, and each time I thought about today’s announcement of the second phase results, I couldn’t help shaking. Could it be that HAHAHAHA, I, Huang Xuan, have such a day?”

Listening to his laughter, Su Han shook his head, stood up, and said, ”Let’s go.”
