Chapter 405: Celestial Feather
Tang San said solemnly, "I believe the array master understands the importance of this cooperation. Success this time will lay the foundation for mutual trust. He will undoubtedly do his best to ensure long-term cooperation."
Hearing this, Xu Ziran\'s expression improved considerably. He nodded solemnly to Tang San, took a box out of his pocket, and handed it to him.
It was an ice-blue small box that looked quite valuable. The ice-blue material was crystal clear, and Tang San could tell at a glance that it was a type of cold jade that could maintain a low temperature in any environment. The jade box was already a valuable treasure, yet its only function here was to serve as a container.
Taking the jade box, Tang San carefully opened it under Xu Ziran\'s guidance. As the box opened, a burst of chilling air emanated from it. Inside the jade box were fifteen crystal-clear vials, each containing a drop of bright red blood emitting a faint, twisted glow. It was the ninth-order essence blood of the Chrono Croc.
Tang San carefully closed the jade box and put it into his storage bracelet. He then seriously said to Xu Ziran, "Don\'t worry, Brother Xu. The master won\'t disappoint you. Even if the master can\'t create the bloodline array disc, he will certainly provide something of equal value."
With things as they were, Xu Ziran had no choice but to trust. He nodded repeatedly, "Then I\'ll rely on you, Brother Asura."
Leaving the Aetherhorn Merchant Association, Tang San was naturally in a good mood. If used correctly, fifteen drops of ninth-order Chrono Croc essence blood could help Gu Li advance smoothly before reaching the god level. The time attribute was undoubtedly one of the most powerful attributes. If Gu Li could break through to godhood in the future, he would become an important ally. In some ways, Gu Li\'s Chrono Croc Transformation was as crucial to Tang San as Du Bai\'s Celestial Fox Transformation.
Next, he needed to prepare for the auction. After arriving at the Ancestral Court, Tang San gained a deeper understanding of this world. Undoubtedly, as the highest-level auction on the Daemon Continent, it would be filled with good items. To gain as much as he could from the auction, picking up overlooked treasures would be necessary, but even to do that, sufficient capital was required.
Before coming here, they had prepared considerable funds, but it now seemed far from enough. If an essential blood essence appeared, they couldn\'t count on picking it up cheaply; they would have to spend a lot to buy it.
Therefore, Tang San truly needed to create the promised array discs. By using the smallest cost to obtain the greatest benefits, he could then use those benefits to purchase items at the auction.
Returning to the hotel, Tang San first sealed his room with spiritual power. Immediately he activated his communicator to contact Zhang Haoxuan, telling him the list of items he needed and asking him to purchase them. Tang San himself couldn\'t leave casually. He did not doubt that the Aetherhorn Merchant Association would keep monitoring him and his companions. Despite the so-called cooperation, they were only wary of the array master, while their primary intent was to control Tang San and the Shrek Squad. As for their current value, the Shrek Squad members weren\'t considered significant in the eyes of the Aetherhorn Merchant Association, as none of them were at the god level. Even with outstanding bloodlines, they weren\'t highly regarded yet.
Kali City
A phantom-like silver figure moved rhythmically in the air, its swaying form captivating and breathtakingly beautiful. Every step seemed to follow the principles of heaven and earth, traversing through space and switching between illusion and reality in the layered space, as if countless figures or numerous overlapping parallel worlds.
Eventually, all the silver lights merged, and the layered spaces converged, finally becoming one. The illusory silver light gathered like a vast ocean into a single body.
One by one, the silver-white peacock feathers, seemingly carrying silver starlight, transformed into a halo that slowly gathered behind Mei Gongzi. They eventually merged into a single, dazzling silver peacock feather about two meters long, which fell into her hand. Her chest heaved slightly, and her pretty face was pale, indicating that the series of actions had drained her considerably.
Clap! Clap!
Soft applause sounded.
The Peacock Great Demon King\'s face was full of admiration. "I knew I wasn\'t wrong about you. The Celestial Feather in your hand has finally regained its proper brilliance. Only you can lead the Peacock clan to re-emerge in the future."
Mei Gongzi lowered her head in some embarrassment. "I still have a long way to go. There\'s a chasm between me and the level you spoke of, where I can tread on the heavens and earth and dance with celestial grace."
The Peacock Great Demon King shook his head. "You shouldn\'t say that. You are only at the eighth order now, still a bit away from the ninth order. To be able to start mastering it and gain the Celestial Feather\'s initial recognition at this level is already a delightful surprise to me. I originally thought it would take you at least three years to reach this step, and by then you would be at the ninth order. But I didn\'t expect your comprehension to be so good and your talent so high that you got the Celestial Feather\'s recognition at the eighth order. It\'s only been a little over a year, which gives me more time. Xiao Mei, you have not disappointed your father."
Mei Gongzi\'s pretty face turned slightly red as she looked down at the Celestial Feather. The Celestial Feather was two meters long, silver-white in color, and its shaft was like a long spear—slender, straight, yet full of flexibility. When infused with bloodline power, it could be either hard or soft. On its surface were silver patterns resembling whirlpools, dazzling and spectacular. Most strikingly, the tail end had three clusters of feathers arranged vertically. Ordinary peacock feathers had only one cluster, displaying colors like eyes, but this Celestial Feather had three, making it highly unique.
"Do you remember what I told you the title of our clan\'s former Demon Emperor was?" the Peacock Great Demon King asked.
Mei Gongzi nodded, "Mystic Dancer Celestial Peacock Demon Emperor."
Hearing this, a flush of color appeared on the slightly sickly face of the Peacock Great Demon King, and even his eyes sparkled with divine light at that moment.
"That\'s right, Mystic Dancer Celestial Peacock Demon Emperor! And this is also your future. Promise me, my dear, that you will attain the position of Demon Emperor, let the Celestial Feather shine once more, and restore the glory of the peacocks to the sky."
"Yes," Mei Gongzi nodded gently, gripping the Celestial Feather tighter.
As if responding to her, the surface of the Celestial Feather rippled with a faint silver glow, carrying a wonderful and moving rhythm.
"In the next half month, you need to prepare well. You are now at the peak of the eighth order. I hope you can undergo a trial when you break through to the ninth order. Whether you can truly gain the recognition of the Celestial Feather, or rather the recognition of our ancestors, will be determined then. If you succeed, you will be the future master of Kali City. After completing this trial, you can take a break and visit your mother to reassure her. She has come to see you several times but has been turned away. If she doesn\'t see you soon, I worry she won\'t be able to control herself," the Peacock Great Demon King said with a kind smile.
