Rising Of The Divine Stone Cultivation Tablet - 8 THE BATTLE ARENA
‘He called as though he had wanted to kill me for years! The murderous intent leaked out from his eyes as I walked down to the stage. His gear was roughly at the sky realm and was seen as an incredible treasure
seeing as though he wanted my spirit stones
he clearly won them through battle.’
‘”What do you bet!” he shouted
“Your life? Your money? I’ll bet this sword!”‘
‘”That? Alright
I’ll bet my stones!” I shouted as I pulled out a bag with the crystal-like stones inside.’
‘”HAHAHA! You shouldn’t have even tried fighting me! I’m at the peak of body building! You’re probably only at the 5th at most! Your money is mine!!!” he laughed as though he already won.’
‘The battle started
we instantly rushed in and we clashed
leaving a loud bang in the entire stadium. Sparks flew after every clash
leaving an after image after every move. The crowd cheered loudly as the stale mate was suddenly leaning towards me
after another a loud crack could be heard.’
‘”AAAARRGGHH!!!!!!” yelled the man “MY ARM!!! MY ARM!!!!!!”‘
‘He rolled on the floor
cradling his mangled arm until he eventually fainted. It was clear that the battle was over
the crowd roared once more
as I walked up and grabbed my money and his blade.’
‘”The winner of this dual is… Fang mo!!!” The announcer shouted
almost as if he was astonished.’
‘The crowed once again cheered as I raised my arms In victory. Soon challengers lined up one after another to try and beat me
slowly but surely
my spirit stone tripled! I gained various weapons that could also be sold for large amounts of spirit stones
and even had a time where someone had to bet their life! I chose to let them keep it and shoo’d them away.’
‘Once the arena closed
I had about 5 sky tier weapons
10 black tier
and over 20
000 low grade spirit stones! I immediately went to find more rare herbs and cultivation resources since I could buy many things.’
‘At the market there were a few things I bought
I bought some basic
intermediate and advanced rune manuals
10 bottles of body refining pills
some rune brushes and some metal refining manuals to see if I can fix my gauntlets and discover a higher up tier of weaponry.’
‘The total cost of everything was about 2
500 low-grade spirit stones
which is a large chunk of money
but a small price to pay for the future potential that can be discovered. I quickly rushed back to the sect and immediately started reading through all the manuals
I realised that he gauntlets were covered in runes
although they were runes
they were at a higher level than anyone had ever seen
the movement of the strokes and the perfect usage of the engravings filled with the ink
made with perfection
as though this was a piece of equipment that should have never existed.’
‘Although there were runes on it
you could see little pictures of a sword
bow whip
spear
even a polearm! The runes we far too intricate for any of my manuals to understand
so I studied the manuals hoping that one day I’ll find a rune book strong enough to teach me how to understand.’
‘After many hours
I finally completed reading all the runic and the repair manuals. The runes were rather easy to understand
insert your spiritual energy through the ink and it will form whatever rune you’re making
however
the repair manual was more intricate
it required a strong flame to be able to merge together the metals and materials inside the gauntlets to strengthen it’s quality to a peak heaven tier weapon!’
‘The only flame I could think of using was the vermillion bird spirit that was absorbed from the cultivation chambers. The morphed spirit was summoned
as it went from it’s almost static like appearance to a small vermillion bird.’
‘”that’s… incredible!!! To think that it actually worked!” I exclaimed after seeing the vermillion birds flaming body close up in all of its glory.’
‘I immediately withdrew the fire and carefully held it towards the inside of the gauntlets
so I don’t damage the runes. The steady heat on each centimetre of the gauntlet was the most important part of the procedure
otherwise it will merge wrong and be forever ruined.’
‘After almost an hour of welding
the gauntlets were finally fixed to the peak of heaven tier! The gauntlets felt as strong as a mountain
and as heavy as a hundred kilograms! They moved almost at lightning speed besides the fact they weigh so much.’
‘”on to the runes I guess!” I sighed as it’s already past midnight’
‘The runes were rather simple
I channelled my qi in the brush and started copying the runes shown in the book.’
‘One stroke!’
‘Two strokes!’
‘Five strokes!’
‘Ten strokes!’
‘Within ten strokes and only thirty seconds
the rune was already completed
although the lines looked dull in comparison to the gauntlets
they seemed like they could fetch a hefty price
especially since they were runes in enhancing cultivation speed for a while.’
‘After that
I made many more runes
the more the better. Stroke after stroke
the piles stacked up and my knowledge of runes increased
slowly but surely
I gained perfect line work! the strokes looked many times better then what the ones before did
the strokes smooth and not too wide
clearly showing that they must be at least twice as strong as the ones made before.’
‘The chances of making a perfect line work rune was one in five
but the more i knew
the less that would be required
after about a hundred more runes
my qi couldn’t handle it anymore. I laid on the floor
incredibly exhausted
but all of a sudden
a thought came to my head.’
‘”wait a minute! If I can make these runes with hardly any effort
won’t I make a massive profit off of this???”‘
