Chapter 2134 Freedom To Choose A Reward


    "Have you seen these before?" Lin Mu questioned.


    "I''ve read about these kinds of reward grounds before and have been to one of them." Ziran answered. "While there are some difference among them, the basics of them are the same. We pick what we like and if it is reasonable enough, the arrays should approve it and allow us to move onto the next trial." He exined.


    Hearing this, the group couldn''t help but feel quite relieved. Unlike the previous rewards ground, they didn''t need to wander around and search for their reward which was much more preferable to them. And not just that, it didn''t seem like they had a particr time limit here either, as the teleportation circle implied that they would only be sent to the next trial once they had all picked their rewards. "That''s good. We''ll also be able to coordinate with each other." Crown Prince Feng Shun said while looking at the Jade Slips. "It''s clear that this holds cultivation techniques and skills along with other possible information that can be considered valuable. We can pick the most optimum jade slips that can also be shared if needed." He exined.


    "That is indeed good for us," Daoist Chu agreed. "Though we still need to see if there are other restrictions on all this," He added.


    ~step~step~step~


    While they talked about this, Lady Kang had already approached one of the shelves and picked up a jade slip.


    "Daoist Chu is right… Looks like this ce won''t allowmon loopholes like that." She said, looking at the jade slip.


    "What do you mean?" Crown Princess Shang asked.


    "Come look, these jade slips are not normal." Lady Kang replied, raising it for others to see.


    Everyone approached and checked out the jade slips.


    The jade slips were not smooth like usual ones, instead they seemed to have a grey crystal embedded in the middle. But it wasn''t the same for every jade slip either.


    "They have a varying number of these grey crystals." Lin Mu noted. "And they are the same kind as those embedded over the niches." He added.


    "The number of crystals on them varies from one to five," Crown Prince Feng Shun confirmed after scanning the shelves with his immortal sense. This made them think about how it all worked, while Ziran decided to test it out directly. "Hmm…" He stroked his chin as he looked at the jade slips for a few seconds before finally picking up three of them.


    Lin Mu watched and saw that the three jade slips had one, four and five grey crystals on them each. Ziran walked up to one of the niches and ced the jade slip with the single grey crystal on it first.


    ~SHUA~


    Doing so triggered a reaction from the niche and a faint wave of Immortal Qi could be felt. ~HONG~


    And a couple of secondster, one of the grey gemstones on top of the niche glowed!


    "It changed." They observed.


    "It corresponded to the number of crystals, huh." Ziran muttered before picking up the jade slip from the niche and recing it with another jade slip that had five crystals instead of one.


    ~HONG~


    This caused a different change.


    Instead of just one crystal glowing, all five of them were glowing and not just that, but a thin membrane of some kind had also appeared on the niche!


    "Interesting…" Ziran smiled. "Are you sure you should be doing this?" Qiao De questioned. "What if you only get one try?" he asked.


    "It''ll be fine. Even if it is one try, at least we''ll have more information." Ziran replied. "I don''t mind sacrificing my reward for this, if it means I get to learn more about this ce." As an explorer, the half elf didn''t care about the end rewards as much as the exploration itself.


    "Quite daring of you." Qiao De couldn''t help but say.


    "I''m used to it. Besides…" Ziran said before taking back the jade slip with the five crystals. "I had a hunch this ce is a bit more logical than the one before." He watched as the membrane disappeared.


    "It reverted to normal." Lin Mu spoke, realizing that it was indeed giving them more than one chance.


    But Ziran was not done yet and put the jade slip with the one crystal back in the niche. ~HONG~


    The crystal on top glowed once more, but Ziran didn''t stop and put one more jade slip inside. This jade slip had four crystals on it.


    ~SHUA~


    Upon doing this, the membrane appeared again while all five crystals above the niche glowed.


    "Cumtive… So the crystals determine the value of the jade slip." Ziran figured it outpletely. "So we can take more of the jade slips, as long as the total number of crystals amounts to five," Daoist Chu understood. "Though this might actually make things a bit harder to pick." He chuckled, knowing they would be spoiled for a choice here.


    "Oh, you have no idea…" Ziran said as he scanned the jade slip with his immortal sense, reading its contents. "This single jade slip is worth hundreds of thousands of immortal stones." He spoke.


    Lin Mu noticed that the jade slip that Ziran was reading was the five-crystal jade slip. Material ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "What is it?" He asked, wondering what was inside it.


    "Here." Ziran directly handed it to Lin Mu, allowing him to take a look. Lin Mu obliged and his Immortal sense quickly scanned it, the contents appearing in his mind.


    "Eight Valleys Holy Spear Art…" Lin Mu muttered. "This… is a High Grade Qi skill!" he eximed.


    The jade slip did not contain the entire Qi skill, of course, but only gave an overview of it that was enough for a cultivator to know what it was like. And this was enough for Lin Mu to determine that this was no simple Qi skill.


    "What did you say?" Crown Prince Feng Shun seemed to have recognized the name. "How is this… here? A Qi skill of the Eight Valleys Immortal sect!"
