Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 228 Superior-Grade Treasure Chest - Shining
Chu Danqing vaguely saw the shadow of the Corpse Dragon on Long Nie's body.

One is a monster stitched together from human corpses, and the other is a monstrous creature fused from the resentment of dragon remnants.

However, besides these two commonalities, there is actually another commonality.

If Long Nie hadn't run fast enough, he might have died at Guo Ming's hands just like the Corpse Flood Dragon.

Despite its enormous size, the dragon was surprisingly vulnerable when facing Guo Ming's sword.

Each flying sword that pierced through Long Nie's body inflicted a severe blow.

The pace of the battle was even faster than that of Wu Zhen's fierce corpse.

He was killed by Guo Ming in less than two minutes.

Wu Zhen's fierce corpse was much tougher than Long Nie's; at least Chu Danqing was able to chat with Wu Zhen for a while.

With the death of Long Nie, his body, which was originally composed of black energy, collapsed.

[Mission Completed, You Gain: Paradise Points x 20000, Attribute Points +5]

Then a brand new treasure chest appeared, its surface shimmering with unique patterns.

Its design is that of a regular treasure chest, but its quality is of exceptional quality.

Guo Ming retrieved it for Chu Danqing without further ado.

"Senior, I've already paid for the goods. When will you start work?" Chu Danqing put the treasure chest into his storage space and asked Wu Zhen.

You can open the treasure chest anytime, and it won't run away if you leave it in your storage space.

But the talent quest needs to be completed as soon as possible.

As he said this, Guo Ming held the Su Nu Sword in his hand, with three flying swords beside him poised to strike.

This is to prevent Wu Zhen from breaking her promise and becoming fat.

If the other party makes any unusual moves, Guo Ming will take control of him immediately.

There are rewards for killing fierce corpses and dragon monsters, but these rewards are given by Paradise, so what does it have to do with you, Wu Zhen?

These are two completely different things.

Wu Zhen, of course, could see the situation clearly and said with a smile, "Don't worry, let's get started now."

"Give me the stuff."

"Don't worry about me doing anything reckless. I don't want to experience what it feels like to have this sword fall on my soul."

Chu Danqing nodded and handed the Purple Jade Seal and the Imperial Purple Qi to the other party.

Wu Zhen took it and examined it for a moment, then said, "The original item only needs one day and one night."

"If this were back then, it would have taken eighty-one days to complete the purification."

Hearing that the time given by Wu Zhen was the same as the talent mission provided by Paradise, which was 24 hours, Chu Danqing finally felt relieved.

This can be considered an alternative way to distinguish between genuine and fake products.

"You're lucky I can still hold on. Otherwise, if it really were eighty-one days, you'd have to take care of it yourself." After saying that, Wu Zhen took the Ziwei Jade Seal and the Imperial Purple Qi and turned to go to the Dragon Slaughtering Platform.

Although the Dragon-Slaying Platform is now full of cracks, the absence of fierce corpses and dragon monsters has rendered it unobstructed.

The Dragon-Slaying Platform is only a supplementary tool; the one who truly refines the essence is Wu Zhen.

Chu Danqing also discovered something: as Wu Zhen refined his soul, it became increasingly transparent.

This is clearly depleting his soul power.

This made him hesitate to speak, but Guo Ming noticed Chu Danqing's situation first and immediately stopped him.

At this point, let's not create any unnecessary trouble.

Chu Danqing finally sighed.

Upon hearing the sigh, Wu Zhen turned around and said with a smile, "Don't worry, this is a deal between you and me, and it's also a process for me to rest in peace. It's a win-win situation."

Now that things had come to this point, Chu Danqing remained silent.

The talent awakening quest can be considered basically completed at this point.

The most difficult part was finding the items and killing the fierce corpses and dragon monsters. Now, as long as you get the refined Ziwei Jade Seal, you can consider it done.

Therefore, Chu Danqing found a safe place and prepared to open the newly acquired Excellent-grade Shining Treasure Chest.

This treasure chest was incredibly rich, and what surprised him most was the Dragon Bone Tome contract item, which actually granted him a permanent summon.

As for the remaining two pieces of equipment, Chu Danqing had little interest.

They all require dragon bloodline, but Chu Danqing is just a human, how could he possibly possess dragon bloodline?

Not to mention raising this bloodline to a certain concentration.

So they can only put them in the storage space and wait to take them back to the park to sell.

As for the Dragon Soul Ashes, Chu Danqing simply gave them to Guo Ming.

"That's interesting, then I'll accept it." Guo Ming naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony with Chu Danqing.

Chu Danqing himself definitely couldn't use it anymore.

Using Da Bao and Huang Tian Zhi Zi would be a waste; it would be better to give them to Guo Ming and directly enhance them.

Selling them is possible, but the economic benefits are mediocre; you won't get anything good in return, since they are consumables.

When trading, most apostles prefer equipment, skills, and items.

Even if consumables are to be purchased, they should primarily be for treatment and recovery.

Actually, Guo Ming didn't intend to use it himself, but rather to take it back for the Guo family to study.

It's an excellent-grade weapon, and it can even inflict true damage.

The latter, in particular, if a proper understanding can be found, would be of great benefit to both the Guo family and Chu Danqing.

"Brother Chu, there's still plenty of time. I think you should upgrade the Nine Cauldrons Diagram as well," Guo Ming suggested.

The purification process takes 24 hours, and with his protection during this time, there's no need to worry about any problems.

Chu Danqing nodded and immediately donated all the high-quality dragon materials he had obtained from Guo Ming to the Nine Cauldrons Diagram.

A phantom of a large bronze cauldron appeared and immediately swallowed all the dragon-like materials into it.

The dragon ball, dragon soul, dragon horn, dragon bone, dragon blood, dragon tendon, dragon claw, dragon whiskers, and dragon scale gradually turned into a pool of molten iron in the bronze cauldron.

It then slowly took the shape of a real dragon.

Wu Zhen, who was helping Chu Danqing refine the Ziwei Jade Seal, sensed the dragon's aura, turned her head and looked over, a look of doubt appearing in her eyes.

He sensed the presence of a dragon; there was no doubt about it, given how many dragons he had killed.

But he realized that it didn't seem to be a dragon.

However, he only glanced at it before turning back to continue refining the Purple Jade Seal.

Now he is nothing but a soul, and there are no more true dragons in the world, so these things have nothing to do with him.

I can finally rest in peace after completing the transaction.

He's been holding on for so many years, and there's no way he can keep going. Why create unnecessary trouble?

Not to mention that Guo Ming was also watching intently from the side. When he turned his head just now, a chilling sword intent appeared on the Su Nu Sword in Guo Ming's hand.

This was a warning to him not to get involved.

Chu Danqing was unaware of these changes; he could sense the transformation as the Nine Cauldrons Diagram improved in quality.

It should be noted that when he was searching for the dragon vein, he established a connection with it through the Nine Cauldrons Diagram. Later, after the fragments of the scroll merged with the dragon vein to become the Nine Cauldrons Diagram, this connection did not disappear.

On the contrary, they have always existed and have been continuously strengthening their compatibility, showing a trend of becoming a natal magic weapon or a companion magic weapon.

With this compatibility, it becomes much easier to use.

Although Chu Danqing hadn't used it many times, he had always enjoyed the passive effects of the Nine Cauldrons Diagram.
