When the words "Supreme Core" reached Jiang Yuan's ears, he couldn't suppress his elation. After the Heavenly Eye's explanation, he seemed to understand the origin of the Supreme Core.

Not all cores drop from monsters. There is an extremely small chance that a Supreme Core will be ejected from the Golden Gate, and those who are lucky enough to obtain this Supreme Core are called the Chosen Ones.

For example, he obtained the Heavenly Eye from the Supreme Core.

The origin of the Supreme Core that now lies in his hands is not hard to guess. It was also the possession of a Chosen One who was incredibly lucky, but that Chosen One died due to various accidents before he could activate the Supreme Core.

The Supreme Core was originally drawn by destiny, and with the death of the chosen one it recognized, it sealed itself away, becoming this inconspicuous Supreme Core.

"Life is unpredictable, who knows if good luck will last forever!" Jiang Yuan gripped the object tightly. This was the second item he had chosen, and also his biggest gain during this period.

Although he didn't know why the sealed Supreme Core had ended up here, now that it was in his hands, it shouldn't remain sealed away any longer.

"Your previous master couldn't take you on this journey, so I'll take his place!"

The Supreme Core is of great importance, and its activation may cause extraordinary phenomena in the heavens and earth. Jiang Yuan does not intend to activate it here; he needs to go back and make a careful choice.

Having experienced the Water Origin Vein and the Supreme Core, Jiang Yuan attached great importance to this warehouse. After all, one can imagine how cautious one must be to produce such a hidden dragon and phoenix from an ordinary warehouse.

However, the third item truly disappointed Jiang Yuan. No more good treasures appeared among the pile of cores, so he could only take a fragment of the patterned armor and leave.

"You're so unpunctual! You said five minutes but you took fifty!" Shangguan Ya complained to Jiang Yuan, thinking that this man probably couldn't tell the difference between five minutes and fifty minutes!

"These are the three items I chose!" Jiang Yuan didn't hide anything, after all, these were brought from someone else's warehouse.

"No need to show it to me, it's all a batch of low-grade goods anyway!" Shangguan Ya said nonchalantly.

Jiang Yuan chuckled inwardly. Shangguan Ya thought he had been taken advantage of, but little did she know that he was the biggest winner.

"Now that we've received the deposit, when will the cooperation you mentioned begin?"

With both parties agreeing to the terms, the only remaining question is how to fulfill the obligations of cooperation!

"I'm already testing the aircraft and gathering personnel. We should be able to head to the ruins in about three days." Shangguan Ya tossed over a communication stone. "This is my personal communication stone. I'll let you know the exact time through it once it's confirmed!"

Jiang Yuan took the stone. He also had this kind of stone, and it was a four-phase sound transmission stone, which was even more precious than this two-phase sound transmission stone.

After leaving the territory of the Northern City Alliance, the two headed towards Nan Gui Mountain.

"Brother Yuan, this woman is clearly not someone to be trifled with. We'd better just stand her up!"

The previously generous and outgoing chubby boy has changed his attitude and is now considering not going to the appointment.

"Why?" Jiang Yuan asked, raising an eyebrow.

"What if this woman is only after our looks? Wouldn't that be like lambs to the slaughter?" Little Fatty said fearfully. "Let me tell you, although she's quite pretty, I like to take the initiative. I can't stand being forced into this situation!"

"You're not scared, are you?" Jiang Yuan teased.

Little Fatty blushed and raised his voice, "Ha, you think I, Fatty, am afraid? You're joking!"

"That's good! As for your concern that she might be after your beauty, don't worry. If she really is, I'll take the blame for you. Come at me if you have any ill intentions!" Jiang Yuan was overjoyed to have obtained the treasure, and he blurted out a joke that he rarely made.

"Damn, if your wife hears you say that, she'll chop you up!" Little Fatty felt like the two of them were back in their dorm, bragging and joking around.

Jiang Yuan became serious upon hearing this and said, "Don't tell your sister-in-law about tonight's events, including what happened with the Sacred Spirit Pavilion!"

Ning Yanlan possesses the bloodline of the Holy Spirit, and these events have more or less influenced her.

"Don't worry, we're just going to the North Gate to defend against the beast tide tonight!" Little Fatty gave Jiang Yuan a knowing smile that all men would understand.

"It's been several hours already, why haven't the two of them returned yet?" Leng Yue was getting impatient and was leaning against a pillar, looking sullen.

Ning Yanlan was rather quiet, and her gaze remained fixed on the osmanthus grove below the tower.

"What are you looking at?" Leng Yue checked on the Chen family father and son who were sitting obediently, then darted over to Ning Yanlan and asked.

"It seems like there's some kind of wild beast, but I can't sense it with my Stone Breath!" Ning Yanlan unconsciously thought of that panda, which, even though it looked like it wasn't fully grown, had the ability to block out senses.

"Why don't you stay here, and I'll go down and look for it for you!"

The cold moon was unusually active at night, its eyes gleaming brightly when it heard of prey, as if it couldn't wait to begin its hunt.

"No, maybe it's just a small animal!" Ning Yanlan quickly refused. Having spent the night with Leng Yue, she had already experienced Leng Yue's unpredictable nature. If anything went wrong, they would have a hard time dealing with it given their current strength.

"Then I'll go see what animal it is. If it's a rabbit, I'll catch it and roast it. I love eating rabbit heads!" Leng Yue was eager to get started, not minding the trouble.

Ning Yanlan was speechless. Just when she was powerless, Shi Zhixi sensed Jiang Yuan and Xiao Pang approaching.

"They're back!"

She felt a great weight lifted off her shoulders, partly because of Leng Yue's restlessness, and partly because the energy within the demon pearl had run out.

With a whoosh, two figures leaped up the tower, which was more than ten meters high, and arrived at Ning Yanlan's floor in no time.

"Who wants to eat rabbit heads?" Jiang Yuan said, feigning seriousness.

"You're finally back!" Ning Yanlan didn't say the last part, "I'm about to collapse."

As soon as Jiang Yuan returned, he took out the demon pearl and charged it, which was a necessary task for him every day.

"They didn't do anything underhanded, did they?" Jiang Yuan glanced at the Chen family father and son.

"Okay, the two of you should just go to sleep!" Ning Yanlan stopped cultivating and focused on her surroundings, fully aware of the actions of the Chen father and son.

"That's good!" Jiang Yuan was relieved. These two people had to guard it, otherwise, if they passed on the message to others, the Holy Blood Spirit Pearl would definitely be coveted by other forces, and it would be difficult to get the coffin again.

"What have you two been up to today? Why did you end up with two old men?" Leng Yue's assessment of Chen Xinghuai was also that he was an old man.

"Those two are crucial to tomorrow's auction! And we will also be competing this time!" Jiang Yuan said confidently.

"What's the highlight? We need to go see it!"

"Absolutely!"

Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement with Leng Yue's suggestion, saying, "However, you and Little Fatty have another task: to keep watch over them!"

The inheritance of the invincible Holy Spirit is bound to bring about a bloody storm; tonight is merely the eve of the storm.
