While the Security Team was analyzing the case, Luo Jun had already quietly sneaked back to his residence.

He was confident that he hadn't given himself away, and that this time, it should have had a significant deterrent effect on the Hell Creek Family.

Even the Peak expert fell to Ningdong; Luo Jun refused to believe they could send someone at the Feather Transformation stage.

In the Main World, the number of Feather Transformation Mirrors can be counted on two hands. Everyone knows each other and they are constantly monitoring each other. Any unusual movement by any of them will attract the attention of others, potentially causing serious diplomatic problems or even triggering a war.

If, on the surface, the world's balance is maintained by the deterrence of nuclear weapons, then in the cultivation world, in the shadows of the Main World, those few Feather Transformation Realm cultivators act as nuclear weapons.

No matter how powerful the Hell Creek Family, it's still just a Great Family. If their Clan Leader really dares to come to Zhendan, not to mention anything else, Grand President Wan Guiyuan the Yuan Cultivation Society, will be the first to object.

It seems things will calm down for at least a while.

With that thought in mind, Luo Jun locked the doors and windows and began to organize his spoils.

First, I opened the Dice of Heavenly Secrets panel.

The battle with Nikolai involved the use of the Dice of Heavenly Secrets several times, especially the last two. Whether or not he could defeat this Peak opponent within the allotted time could affect the lives of tens of thousands of people in Ningdong City, Severity Coefficient extremely serious. In addition to gaining a large amount of experience, he was directly promoted to level 48!

I drew six attribute points, my luck was so-so. After the twenty-one attribute points were automatically allocated, the panel looks like this:

Level: 48 (424/4900)

Strength: 306 points

Sensitivity: 269 points

Perception: 265 points

Spirit: 276 points

Luck: Level 7 + Level 1

Skills: All Things are Dice, Intermediate Point Correction, Regret, More Opportunities (Level 2), [Double Insurance], Refresh.

Props: Wealth Ring, Path to Success Bracelet, Fate Peering Glasses

Chips: 50

Number of uses: 7/7

With his current base attributes, an average increase of five or six points is barely noticeable. However, with level fifty fast approaching, the Intermediate Point Correction will allow him to evolve into an advanced level, which should significantly improve his future attribute extraction. Luo Jun is incredibly excited about the upcoming new skill.

After turning off the Dice of Heavenly Secrets panel, Luo Jun opened the Hundred Treasure Box and took out the valuable items he had looted from Nikolai.

Perhaps due to the effect of the Dice of Heavenly Secrets, the few items this guy pulled out in his last moment of desperation were all low-grade junk, a bunch of Blue Sky White Clouds, basically nothing that Luo Jun would even look at. But after all, he was at the Peak, and the few things he always wore were all very practical treasures.

Name: Golden Silk Vest

Grade: Epic

Introduction: A legendary Martial Forest Expert spent a fortune to create a protective armor. Thanks to this treasure, he escaped assassination attempts time and again. Unfortunately, he ultimately died at the hands of a master of poison, and the armor was lost to the world.

Function 1: Transformation: This Noble Phantasm can alter the user's appearance to a certain extent to suit their body shape and needs.

Function Two: Resilience: The material of this Noble Phantasm is extremely tough and has good natural resistance, which can withstand most types of attacks. It will also slowly recover over time after being damaged.

Function Three: Protection: When wearing this Noble Phantasm, an invisible shield will be generated covering the body, blocking any damage. This function can also be actively activated. After activation, the shield's strength is greatly increased, lasting for one minute. However, after activation, the basic shield function will also be unusable, lasting for one hour. Activation consumes sixty Breath Vital Energy, with a one-hour cooldown.

Note: For self-defense, choose gold thread; everyone in the Martial World knows that!

Name: Myriad Languages Earphones

Grade: Rare

Description: A treasure created to enable communication with different civilizations; wearing it eliminates the need to worry about Language Barrier.

Function 1: This treasure can be summoned to its master at any time and will not be Unerring Return.

Function 2: Language translation: Once worn, it can automatically translate all languages, allowing for barrier-free communication with any intelligent being.

Note: The ultimate form of simultaneous interpreting.

Name: Instant Step Boots

Grade: Epic

Introduction: A master of Lightness Skill martial arts created these shoes in pursuit of greater speed during a speed contest. Ultimately, while they helped him win, they couldn't save him from the cruel twists of fate.

Function 1: Speed Boost: When equipped with this Noble Phantasm, you will receive a 30% movement speed bonus.

Function Two: Instant Step: Once activated, you can instantly move to a designated location, with a maximum movement distance of 100 meters. The Cooldown Time is ten minutes, and activation consumes twenty Breath Vital Energy.

This feature can save the Cooldown Time.

Note: How cool is that teleportation? So cool!

Name: Sharpness

Grade: Legendary

Description: The spear, discovered at a battlefield site, was buried in the mud, but after being cleaned, it still gleamed with a cold light and was free of any rust. When swung, its sharpness was evident in the fact that even without direct contact, the spearhead could slice through paper.

Function 1: Unstoppable: Originally crafted from top-tier materials, its strength and sharpness are greatly enhanced after being transformed into a Noble Phantasm, rendering all defensive measures ineffective.

Function Two: Phantom Blade: A short, invisible blade extends from the tip of the spear, its lethality decreasing with distance from the main body.

Function 3: Aura Breaking: This Noble Phantasm is made of Vital Energy Shielding Alloy and is engraved with special Magic Rune, giving it an extremely strong aura-breaking effect.

Function 4: Meteor Shower: When activated, this Noble Phantasm is thrown, imbuing it with powerful energy that greatly enhances its speed, accuracy, and power. Activation consumes 300 Breath Vital Energy, with a 15-minute Cooldown Time.

Note: Did you know there was a spear that fell from the sky?

Four items: two epic, one rare, and one legendary. It's about the same as what we got from taking down Charles's team, even considering that the other side didn't reveal many good items. You can only say that the Peak truly lives up to its Peak.

Luo Jun checked it carefully. The initial design of the Golden Silk Vest was a golden vest, somewhat similar to a tank top, with a tear on the side, probably from when he used the Kai Ren Qi during his sneak attack. According to the instructions, it should slowly heal. Luo Jun put it on, changed the design, and transformed it into one of those Limit white tank tops paired with baggy shorts. He then changed into slippers, grabbed a palm-leaf fan, and ended up looking just like the old men enjoying the cool air on the streets in summer.

The Myriad Languages Earphones are an external-style design, and they're quite comfortable to wear. However, since there are no foreigners to test them on, I simply put them away in my Hundred Treasure Box.

In Luo Jun's opinion, the Instant Step Boots have the most useful special effects. With the support of his powerful attributes, he was already extremely fast, and these boots directly increased his speed by 30%, making the improvement particularly huge, not to mention the ability to blink for 100 meters.

In Luo Jun's eyes, this thing was more powerful than most Legendary Treasure Item.

The only drawback is that these boots don't have the ability to change their shape, and their style is based on ancient clothing, making them somewhat conspicuous when worn out.

Well, in the Cultivators world, there are quite a few magical artifacts with such an incongruous design. Experienced Cultivators can usually tell at a glance that it's a magical artifact. If it came from legitimate channels, it wouldn't matter. The problem is that this thing was stolen by killing a master from the Hell Creek Family. If it's flaunted in public and attracts the attention of those with ulterior motives, it could cause some trouble.

I'll just have to keep it safe for now and use it as a Teleportation tool when I need it.

Now, the Last One, and only, Legendary Treasure Item remains on the bed: the Sharp Spear.

This spear is about 2.5 meters long. Compared to the size of the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, it can only be considered a short spear, suitable for close combat and long-range throwing, similar to a long javelin.

It is 2.5 meters long, with the spearhead accounting for about 50 centimeters, which is a bit large compared to the shaft. It is double-edged and exceptionally sharp. There is also a white tassel between the shaft and the spearhead for decoration. Holding it in your hand is both cool and Killing Intent.

Luo Jun carefully picked up the spear, not because he was worried about hurting himself, but because he was afraid of its Phantom Blade effect.

There's an invisible, Phantom Blade around the spearhead. When he first took it out and put it on the bed, he didn't notice that it had torn the sheets. So, when picking it up, you have to be especially careful not to damage the furniture in the room.

After a simple test, Luo Jun determined the approximate range of the Phantom Blade, which was essentially a proportionally enlarged version of the spearhead. The spearhead itself was about fifty centimeters long and five centimeters wide, while the Phantom Blade was roughly twice that size, one meter long and ten centimeters wide. In other words, it extended two or three centimeters to the left and right of the spearhead, with the tip extending forward about half a meter. Moreover, as the special effects indicated, the power decreased with distance; the strongest point was the spearhead itself, and the power decreased further outwards, until at the very end, it could only slice through paper and cloth.

As for its function, the description of "Unstoppable" is exactly the same as that of the Azure Dragon Crescent Moon. Luo Jun took it out and touched it, finding that its Sharpness could leave scratches on the Azure Dragon Crescent Moon Blade, but not vice versa. This shows that in terms of strength, this Legendary Treasure Item indeed stronger than an epic one. It also proves that the "Unstoppable" effect adds extra strength on top of the original materials.

Therefore, even with the same Unstoppable special effect, the final effect will vary depending on the base materials. However, in terms of the degree of scratches, the two are not much different. Among epic weapons, the Azure Dragon Crescent Moon Blade is indeed top-notch in terms of strength.

As for the remaining qi-breaking effects, he had already experienced them; they could even slice through his own qi, and the effects were indeed powerful. However, he had never seen the attacker use the final Meteor Shower.

However, considering that it requires the consumption of three hundred Breath Vital Energy, the effect must be quite strong.

That's enough energy to summon Ailongtan, and it's a one-time attack... It's like sacrificing an Old Ai for a single move, so you can imagine how powerful it is... It's definitely much stronger than the Longitudinal and Horizontal Giant Cannon!

Luo Jun was itching to try it out, but it wasn't convenient to test it on campus. But no matter what, he now had a legendary melee weapon, so this Peak kill wasn't in vain!

Most Cultivators probably prefer firearms to cold weapons. The attack power of firearms depends almost entirely on the weapon itself, and the damage is basically fixed. No matter who uses it, as long as it hits, the effect is about the same.

Cold weapons are different. Whether it's a sword or a spear, the power of an attack depends not only on the sharpness and hardness of the weapon itself, but also more on the strength of the user. The same sword can have vastly different effects depending on the person using it!

In comparison, firearms can be said to guarantee a minimum level of attack power for the user, and this minimum level, without considering any special weapon effects, may be higher than the maximum level of most melee weapons.

But Luo Jun was different. His powerful Root Bone and the Ninth Level Body Refinement Realm granted him terrifying strength far exceeding that of ordinary people. Even the most ordinary throwing knife, when tossed casually by him, possessed power surpassing that of Armor-Piercing Bullet -piercing bullet...

For him, the problem was often that the weapon couldn't withstand his excessive power.

This way, an Unstoppable legendary spear was exactly what he wanted. At least it was more suitable for Luo Jun than the equally legendary Violent Shotgun!

Luo Jun happily put away the spear, but then frowned as he looked at the countless magical artifacts in his Hundred Treasure Box.

His inventory has plenty of slots, but there are too many miscellaneous items and many functions that are clearly redundant. A lot of them could definitely be optimized. Also, although the Hundred Treasure Box is different from ordinary containers, when you open it to take out equipment, it doesn't just appear in your hand like you want it; you still have to put in the effort to find it.

This can be seen from Nikolai's final struggle. Although the dice played a role, if retrieving the treasure from the Hundred Treasure Box was as simple as a thought, it wouldn't be possible to make repeated mistakes. If he had pulled out a powerful escape treasure, Luo Jun wouldn't have been able to kill him within ten seconds.

Luo Jun's mental agility and reflexes far surpass those of ordinary people. He can always instantly and accurately retrieve what he wants, which looks effortless, but the process is actually quite frustrating. Therefore, for convenience, he has reorganized his Hundred Treasure Box more than once, placing frequently used items at the front. However, as the number of items increases, he still feels somewhat overwhelmed.

He should try to sell some of them. Many of his treasures haven't been used in a long time, and their effects are rather useless to him... Although he's not short of money, he's heard that many transactions between Cultivators aren't primarily based on cash, but rather on barter. It seems better to find a black market or something similar and exchange these unused items for more useful treasures.

But where can we find a way in?

Ningdong, as the location of a major branch, also has a gate and a considerable number of Cultivators, so there must be such a black market... But the problem is that these topics are forbidden on the forum; anyone caught doing so is deleted, banned, Xiao Hei given a warning. I don't have any connections in real life... Am I supposed to wait for my Master to return?

I wonder if Lu Fei and his friends have any connections...

As Luo Jun was pondering, his phone suddenly rang. He opened it and saw that the caller was Tie Jingang.

"Teacher Tie?" Luo Jun was slightly taken aback, then a smile appeared on his lips, "Look what's going on!"
