"Did you get new nail tattoos?"
After seeing the drastic change in Jiang Yuan's body armor, Ning Yanlan asked with a puzzled expression.
"Wait a minute! Don't you have a heart of steel?"
Jiang Yuan asked the question very quickly, and Ning Yanlan was a little taken aback. After a moment of confusion, she could only quip, "Of course! I not only have a heart of steel, but also an iron will!"
Jiang Yuan: "..."
At that moment, the two were completely on different wavelengths.
"Are you trying to change the subject!" Ning Yanlan poked his tattooed nail with her finger, looking unhappy. "We agreed on matching outfits, but you secretly changed your clothes! Men are so unreliable!"
"That's not what I meant. The Iron Heart I was talking about is a prop. Don't you remember? We used the Iron Heart, which can store energy, to blast that black-horned boar before." Jiang Yuan tried to explain clearly so that Ning Yanlan could remember.
"Oh!" Ning Yanlan then showed a thoughtful expression. She flicked her wrist, took out an item, and asked, "Is this what you're talking about?"
Ning Yanlan took out a stone-like object, which was the Iron Heart she had obtained before.
Just as the Heart of Steel appeared, Ning Yanlan's steel-patterned armor emitted a force that absorbed the Heart of Steel. Jiang Yuan reacted quickly and snatched the Heart of Steel away, and the Heavenly Eye Appraisal immediately re-analyzed the origin of the Heart of Steel.
"Found the Heart of Steel. Infuse with psionic energy? Psionic energy 23/. Once fully charged, it will become the Heart of Armor!"
Jiang Yuan was completely stunned when he saw that dense string of numbers: one million spiritual energy! What kind of concept is that?
If we consider the energy provided by the Holy Spirit Stones, the threshold for a ninth-tier monster is 512 energy points. The maximum energy of the Holy Spirit Stones it leaves behind after death will not exceed 512, and may even be less. So let's assume 500 energy points. One million energy points would translate to 2,000 ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones.
Two thousand ninth-tier Holy Spirit Stones can only power up the Heart of Steel to evolve it into the Heart of Armor. This does not include other Armor fragments. If you want to cultivate a set of intermediate exclusive Armor, the cost is extremely high.
"Is this related to armor tattoos?" Ning Yanlan noticed something was wrong and asked with some skepticism.
"Yes, this Iron Heart is the key to advancing the Armor to the intermediate level! I didn't expect to be so lucky, that we actually obtained it ahead of schedule by chance!" Jiang Yuan explained with a wry smile.
"It seems we also have a Heart of the Earth!" Ning Yanlan took out another item, her face showing a mixture of surprise and joy.
"It's useless for now. We simply don't have the resources to take our armor to the next level!" Jiang Yuan took the Heart of the Earth and said, "Put these more important items in your personal space to avoid losing them!"
This time, it was fortunate that the items were left with Ning Yanlan. If he had been in charge, he would have sold these two unused energy storage items to Liu Zhaodi long ago.
"I'll do whatever you say!" Ning Yanlan snuggled into his arms like a child.
"You wicked beast, you have committed patricide and are unworthy of being a son!"
Just as the two were getting intimate, a voice filled with grief and indignation came from afar, instantly startling Jiang Yuan and Ning Yanlan.
"Why are there people here?" Jiang Yuan looked towards the slaughterhouse and thought to himself, "This place is usually deserted, it shouldn't be like this!"
"That voice!"
Ning Yanlan released Jiang Yuan and, after a moment's thought, said, "It was the old man who sold us things during the day!"
Upon hearing Ning Yanlan's suggestion, Jiang Yuan immediately recognized the voice and exclaimed, "Let's go see what's going on!"
He had kept in mind the coffin Liu Zhaodi had mentioned before, and the old man's experience was very likely related to the final item of this auction, which was a good breakthrough.
"Old man, I know you're hiding something else. If you know what's good for you, hand it over quickly, and maybe this unfilial son can let you live out your days in peace! Otherwise, I'll send you to your death right now to meet my poor mother!"
"You wretched creature, you wretched creature! If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have given birth to you and raised you!"
Inside a dilapidated mud-brick house, an old man and a middle-aged man were facing off, while no fewer than ten men in black robes surrounded the house.
The old man knew that things would not end well. Even if his unfilial son did not kill him today, the black-robed man outside would not let him go, because his possessions were enough to cause a bloodbath.
"Old man, I'll call you father one last time! If you don't give it to me, you know that not only will you die, but I will too! If that really happens, our Chen family line will end, and you, Father, will have no face to face our ancestors even after you've gone to the underworld!" The middle-aged man's voice trembled slightly, but there was no trace of remorse in his eyes, only greed.
The old man's expression softened. As parents, no matter how unfilial their children were, they were still flesh and blood of their own flesh and blood. How could they just watch them die?
However, he did not expect that the moment he lowered his guard, the unfilial son drew his sword and blade, showing no sign of holding back, as if he was preparing to ambush and kill him.
"Old man, I'll send you to hell!"
"stop!"
Jiang Yuan and Ning Yanlan had already arrived, but they were surrounded by more than a dozen men in black robes and could not break through immediately. However, he had a different method!
"A born emperor!"
This time, it wasn't just a fleeting second, but a full-scale, devastating attack. This talent, which is incredibly intimidating to its own kind, is undoubtedly a deadly weapon in the hands of Jiang Yuan, who possesses the genes of the Three Emperors.
Sure enough, there were two thuds inside the mud-brick house and then silence. The old man and his unfilial son both knelt down, not daring to breathe!
"Huh!" Jiang Yuan's expression turned serious.
