To be honest, if Zhang Tie were in Great Xia right now and heard that somewhere possessed treasures like the Battle Talisman Scripture and imperial-grade divine equipment, he would have rushed over at once. But at this moment, hearing such news within the Forbidden City of Dragon Emperor City, several thoughts turned over in Zhang Tie's mind before he merely smiled faintly and changed the subject.
The Battle Talisman Scripture and imperial-grade divine equipment were certainly enticing, but Zhang Tie knew that what mattered most to him now was advancing to a higher realm. Treasures would remain there no matter who obtained them; once one's strength was sufficient, one could have anything. But such a fine thing as sitting in one place while Devil Race knights were delivered to him for upgrading and refining might not come around once in tens of thousands of years.
Zhang Tie naturally knew which mattered more.
No matter how tempted he was, no one in this world could seize every benefit for themselves. Everyone had to learn how to make choices and sacrifices. Besides, the matter of Dark Valley was only a piece of news. If it was true, then since no one had discovered anything during the past three hundred years, it would be perfectly normal for the search to continue another three or five years. By then, once he had advanced to Sky Knight or half-sage, he would have far greater confidence.
"I wonder whether the Star Emperor Temple has hunted down any Devil Race Sky... cough... cough... wind divine generals this time?"
In a moment of carelessness, Zhang Tie had nearly spoken the name of Sky Knights aloud.
"This time, the Star Emperor Temple sent five water divine generals. Wind divine generals are harder to deal with than water divine generals.
