Chapter 2448: Senluo Banner

Chapter 2448: Chapter 2448: Senluo Banner

Back then, Zhou Yu had stumbled upon a wisp of True Fire of Quanwu in Black Gold Canyon.

It was precisely this wisp of True Fire of Quanwu that caused his Divine Soul Firebird to undergo a significant transformation.

However, the True Fire of Quanwu he had obtained back then was nowhere near the level of the one in front of him now.

If his Divine Soul Firebird could fully devour and refine the True Fire of Quanwu in front of him, perhaps it could advance once more.

Maybe, after advancing, it could rival the True Fire of a true Divine Beast.

Unfortunately, he didn’t have any of the things the other party wanted.

For the time being, Zhou Yu could only watch helplessly.

Meanwhile, many others were interested in this True Fire of Quanwu.

Some even asked if other items could be exchanged for it.

However, that person insisted on only two things, so no one could offer anything for exchange at the moment.

The scene became quiet.

At this point, that person perhaps felt that the display wasn’t enough, so he suddenly cast a spell.

Suddenly, the True Fire of Quanwu rapidly expanded.

In an instant, it filled the entire interior of the White Jade Platform completely.

Waves of terrifying heat radiated out.

The surrounding void even showed visible distortions.

This was a testament to its immense power.

At this moment, the person enveloped in the True Fire of Quanwu displayed a look of triumph.

But at this moment, Zhou Yu slightly narrowed his eyes.

He stared intently at the center of the True Fire of Quanwu.

There, he saw a fist-sized flame seed.

That flame seed presented a grayish-white color.

Seeing this, a peculiar glint flashed in Zhou Yu’s eyes.

"So, this True Fire of Quanwu isn’t purely the True Fire of Quanwu."

If Zhou Yu hadn’t obtained a small wisp of the True Fire of Quanwu before, he wouldn’t have noticed.

The so-called impurity doesn’t mean this isn’t real.

But rather, at its birth, due to the lack of pure Cun Wu bloodline, the True Fire’s purity isn’t enough.

Though it can still be called True Fire of Quanwu.

But compared to the genuine True Fire of Quanwu, it falls short.

With this realization, Zhou Yu wasn’t so eager anymore.

As for why no one else exchanged for it, Zhou Yu wasn’t sure. Perhaps someone else present also discovered the True Fire of Quanwu’s flaw.

After all, throughout the Primordial Realm, fire element skills and treasures are well-understood by many.

Seeing the display for so long yet no exchange, the person sighed, put away the True Fire, and left the White Jade Platform.

Soon after, a few others went up one by one, all presenting remarkable treasures.

However, their requirements were much broader.

Quickly, the calm atmosphere was reignited.

Within two hours, these people successively acquired what they wanted.

Of course, there were several materials that greatly tempted Zhou Yu, but he didn’t have the items the other parties wanted, so he regrettably missed out.

However, Zhou Yu didn’t come away empty-handed.

With the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Medicine in hand and the Seven Seas Spirit Essence Wine refined by Hao Yuan Heavenly Venerate, Zhou Yu quickly swapped for the last three materials needed to refine the Cosmic Divine Mountain.

This way, the purpose for his participation in the Rare Treasure Conference was fully achieved.

Now, he just had to wait for the conference to end before going into seclusion to merge the second Divine Mountain into the Cosmic Divine Mountain.

By that time, not only would his strength skyrocket,

but he’d also have great confidence in facing Plane Wars or Heavenly Tribulations.

While Zhou Yu was secretly mulling this over,

a thin, black-robed man appeared on the White Jade Platform.

Upon his appearance, a sinister aura emerged on the White Jade Platform.

Then, as the man waved his hand, a white banner appeared before him.

Once the banner emerged, the sinister energy on the White Jade Platform became even thicker.

Many people immediately showed expressions of shock.

Even Zhou Yu was unsurprised.

The man spoke,

"This treasure is called the Senluo Banner, and its refinement is not yet complete, but it holds within it a million Essence Souls."

When he said this, everyone revealed expressions of astonishment.

A million Essence Souls is no small number.

It must be noted that for many cultivators, Essence Souls are highly valuable.

However, generally, cultivators rarely go out of their way to collect Essence Souls.

Collecting Essence Souls is a dangerous task.

There are two main channels.

The first is by chance. If a cultivator dies, one can seize the opportunity to collect their Essence Soul.

But generally, it’s difficult to collect, and even if one succeeds, it may invite trouble.

If they have elders or sect members with High Rank Cultivators, they can find the one who collected the Essence Soul through a spell, which isn’t worth it.

Moreover, this method of collection is extremely slow.

To collect a million Essence Souls would probably take thousands of years.

The second is slaughter. Some Evil Cultivators go killing to gather enough shocked souls.

But the more slaughter, the heavier the karma they bear, besides possibly producing severe Heart Demons, leading them to lose their mind during a Heavenly Tribulation, becoming mindless demons.

For this person to have gathered a million Essence Souls, it’s useful to many cultivators.

Hence, upon seeing the Senluo Banner with a million Essence Souls, many were tempted.

"Esteemed friend, does this banner truly hold a million Essence Souls?"

The thin, black-robed man didn’t waste words, immediately activating the banner.

Instantly, fierce beast shocked souls flew out of the banner, letting out frightening roars.

At this sight, some furrowed their brows.

"Are these fierce beast Essence Souls?"

The thin, black-robed man said indifferently,

"What else would they be?"

"If I took out a million cultivator Essence Souls, do you think I’d still be alive?"

Upon hearing this, the voices of skepticism faded.

Though both are Essence Souls, fierce beast shocked souls and cultivator Essence Souls differ.

The most valuable, naturally, is the cultivator Essence Soul.

But who dares to massacre a million cultivators?

Such scale of slaughter only occurs in alien race wars.

Yet even in alien race wars, no one dares openly collect Essence Souls.

If discovered, it will lead to execution by both sides.

Comparatively, fierce beast shocked souls are easier to collect.

For example, some Insect Clans appear in the millions or tens of millions.

Capturing them in one fell swoop would allow for such Essence Souls collection.

But even a common Integration Realm master may not achieve this.

Moreover, the fierce beast souls that the black-robed man displayed earlier weren’t from a single type of fierce beast.

Thus, the Senluo Banner’s value is still very high.

At this moment, someone was already impatient.

"Esteemed friend, what treasures do you wish to exchange for this Senluo Banner?"

"Please enlighten us!"

At this moment, everyone was intently focused on the thin, black-robed man,

awaiting his answer...
