Giving Away a Mine
"Guess the underlying strength of the Four Sects?"
Ice Emperor walked to Xiao Han's side, smiling as he took out a Scroll containing statistics on the foundations of the former Four Great Spirit Sects, now the Langya Heavenly Palace.
Because the Four Sects families were so large and powerful, this work continued for several days and was still not finished. They only managed to compile statistics on the most important aspects, such as the wealth of their treasuries and the cultivation levels of their disciples.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Han revealed a knowing smile.
"Since you can say that, it seems the Four Sects have a much richer foundation than we imagined!"
"More than generous!"
Ice Emperor tossed the Scroll into Xiao Han's arms and excitedly introduced it:
"In terms of financial resources, we currently have nearly five billion in Supreme Spirit Liquid alone..."
"Thump!"
Ice Emperor looked in the direction of the sound and saw Xiao Han with his eyes wide open, the Scroll in his hand rolling to the ground involuntarily.
"Explain yourself."
"Fifty... billion?!"
Xiao Han's voice trembled, filled with shock, as if he had gone mad with poverty and misheard the numbers.
"That's right."
Ice Emperor understood Xiao Han's reaction perfectly, recalling that he hadn't felt much better when he first received those numbers.
What does 5 billion Supreme Spirit Liquid mean?
Even some established Heavenly Supreme beings don't have a combined net worth that much.
Moreover, this is only public property. If all the people in the sect were plundered, the number would probably increase several times over.
However, Xiao Han would never do something so despicable as to drain the pond to catch all the fish.
"Phew~"
Letting out a long sigh, Xiao Han couldn't help but sigh.
"As expected of Spirit Array Master!"
No wonder people in this Great Thousand World highly regard special professions such as Alchemist and Spirit Array Master. Although they spend a lot of money, once they master these skills, they become money-guzzling beasts!
After all, which faction doesn't need the support of Spirit Array?
The establishment of each power is a huge business. The unique nature of the Lingtian Continent gives them the ability to make money from all the surrounding continents, not to mention those who come here because of their reputation.
"And..."
Ice Emperor continues to deliver surprises.
You'd never guess!
"Besides ordinary Sacred Object, the Eastern Spirit Sect and the Northern Shadow Palace each possess a Peerless Sacred Object."
"Peerless Sacred Object?!"
Xiao Han's voice rose eight octaves; he was utterly stunned.
Peerless Sacred Object are meant for use by Heavenly Supreme. Even the lowest-grade Spirit Grade Peerless Sacred Object are not something every Heavenly Supreme can equip.
Result...
Several sects that don't even have Heavenly Supreme actually possess two Peerless Sacred Object!
Xiao Han was grateful for the good fortune of the Northern Shadow Palace and the Eastern Spirit Sect.
Once this news leaks out, even if the four companies join forces, they won't be able to withstand the greed of others!
He was also extremely pleased, since Yang Ling and the others were willing to tell him about the existence of the Peerless Sacred Object, it was clear that they had no intention of making any underhanded moves.
"Tell them to keep the news of these two Peerless Sacred Object a secret for now. Once their trip to the Huan Continent is over, they can use them openly."
If it were the former Four Great Spirit Sects, the consequences of hoarding Peerless Sacred Object would not be good. But after the Langya Heavenly Palace made a name for itself, who would dare to provoke them with just two Peerless Sacred Object?
"Hmm... are there any others?"
Xiao Han was preparing to receive a new surprise.
However, the Ice Emperor's reaction was rather lukewarm. "The current Langya Heavenly Palace is quite wealthy in terms of Spirit Artifact, Divine Artifact, Sacred Artifact, and Array Diagram."
Xiao Han was not surprised at all. Apart from the Eastern Spirit Sect, which was famous for its artifacts, it would be strange if Spirit Array Master didn't have some self-defense tools because of their weakness in battle.
As for Array Diagram, wouldn't Spirit Array Master be a laughing stock if they didn't have Array Diagram?
"Do you have Grandmaster Grade Array Diagram?" Right now, only Array Diagram of this level could catch Xiao Han's eye.
"Yes, and quite a lot of them."
Ice Emperor thought for a moment and replied:
"Each family probably has two Grandmaster Grade Array Diagram, and the Western Mystery Gate even has an Immortal Grade Array Diagram."
While Array Diagram are equally valuable, they require a very high level of skill from the Spirit Array Master.
Given that the number of Great Spirit Array Master is far less than that of Heavenly Supreme, the control over them is not as strict as that over Peerless Sacred Object. Therefore, with some intention, the Four Sects have also collected some over the past few thousand years.
Landlords, absolute landlords!
Xiao Han's lips twitched slightly. If the Four Sects hadn't already joined his ranks, he would have wanted to personally go and rob them.
"Their strength far surpasses that of other sects of the same level," Ice Emperor continued.
"There are as many as thirteen high-level Spirit Array Master, and five Great Perfection Earthly Supreme. The total number of Spirit Array Master is no less than two hundred, and the remaining Spirit Array Master are countless."
This is a terrifying number. Other things are alright, but the key is the number of Great Perfection Earthly Supreme and High-Level Spirit Array Master.
There are nearly twenty of them. Many Super faction's Great Perfection Earthly Supreme cannot even reach this number, not to mention that the vast majority of them are even more precious high-level Spirit Array Master.
"It can be said that the Four Great Spirit Sects back then only lacked a Heavenly Supreme- level combatant, which would have made them a veritable Super faction."
"So, we've arrived, haven't we?"
Xiao Han smiled, feeling much more relaxed after learning about the current strength of the Langya Heavenly Palace.
"That's right."
"We are now Super faction."
When Xiao Han and his companion returned, the hall was still filled with an argument over the statistics from earlier.
"Elder Yang, I didn't expect this! Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse; your sect is quite wealthy!"
Southern Blade Pavilion Qian Cha rolled his eyes at Yang Ling and said sarcastically.
"Hehe~"
"I wouldn't dare accept that, Your Excellency's Southern Blade Pavilion has also been quite adept at 'robbing the rich to help the poor'!"
Yang Ling emphasized the phrase "robbing the rich to help the poor" because the Southern Blade Pavilion, which was not known for its wealth, had actually taken out 1 billion Supreme Spirit Liquid in one go. It was unknown how much of this was from the former Eastern Spirit Sect.
Tai Yun and You Ye, standing to the side, kept their eyes down, seemingly oblivious to everything.
They were also shocked at this moment, shocked by the wealth of the other three families. They thought they had hidden themselves well enough, but who would have thought...
All four families are the sixth oldest!
The two families that brought out their Peerless Sacred Object were absolutely terrifying.
"You all seem quite interested!"
Xiao Han's greeting, tinged with a slight smile, rang out in the main hall.
"Palace Master!"
Yang Ling and the others greeted each other in unison.
"You all have really given me a wonderful surprise!"
Xiao Han first sighed, then, thinking about the wealth of the Langya Heavenly Palace now, he couldn't help but feel a chill.
"Since you are all so generous, I, Xiao Han, must do something in return. How can a new sect be without my contribution as its Sect Master?"
The words were spoken.
Others couldn't help but wonder what Xiao Han, with his strength, would bring out.
It's unlikely to be a cheap item; otherwise, it would be better to be stingy.
"A colossal Nine Nether Jade Vein!"
Amidst everyone's curiosity, Xiao Han slowly revealed his answer.
"It's probably worth several billion."
Everyone was stunned.
