Chapter 1769: Tribute of Life

Tang Wulin chuckled, “Didn’t you say you only wanted to borrow my divine weapon?”

Yu Guanzhi replied, “The federation is open to an exchange as well.”

“What if you can’t take it?” Tang Wulin asked.

A faint smile appeared on Yu Guanzhi’s face as he replied, “If I can’t take it, then I won’t mention this matter again. On top of that, the Central Legion will shoulder the duty of protecting the Shrek Academy and Tang Sect encampment, and I’ll discuss all decisions made on this battlefield with you.”

The top brass in the military really are all wily old foxes!

Tang Wulin couldn’t help but think to himself. Initially, Yu Guanzhi had been very stern and unyielding, but his approach had gradually shifted to become more gentle. He was constantly testing and probing Tang Wulin, switching between his stern and benevolent facades where suitable.

As expected of one of the leading representatives of the Eagle Faction!

“Alright, then you can give it a try.”

Tang Wulin wasn’t interested in taking advantage of this battle against the abyssal plane to extort the federation for benefits. That was the type of behavior that both he and the two organizations that he represented would frown upon.

All he wanted was for everyone to unite as one and face this common enemy together.

Tang Wulin rose to his feet as he spoke, and a flash of golden light appeared in his hand, following which the Golden Dragon Spear emerged with faint rainbow light radiating from its surface.

Yu Guanzhi also rose to his feet and began to carefully appraise the divine weapon. Instead of being in a hurry to act, he was making a thorough visual assessment first.

The two ends of the spear were tapered to sharp points, while the central shaft was around as thick as a child’s arm, and the entirety of the spear was covered in golden dragon patterns. There was bright light radiating from the spear; everything seemed to be very restrained, but the faint rainbow sheen that the spear was giving off was very captivating to behold.

“What an impressive divine weapon!” Yu Guanzhi couldn’t help but praise.

Tang Wulin smiled and made an inviting hand gesture.

Yu Guanzhi turned toward him, and asked, “If I’m not mistaken in my assessment, you’ve already forged a spiritual connection with this divine weapon, right?”

Tang Wulin replied, “I succeeded by a stroke of fortune not long ago.”

Yu Guanzhi chuckled, “You’re far too modest, Sect Master Tang; as expected of a once-in-a-generation talent like yourself. Looks like you’re going to become the next Limit Douluo in the near future, perhaps even the second Atlas Douluo.”

He was already able to severely wound Qiangu Dongfeng as a rank 98 Hyper Douluo; once he became a Limit Douluo, he would most likely immediately cross into the realm of quasigods.

If it weren’t for the sudden emergence of the abyssal army, the Spirit Pagoda would’ve most likely already been completely crushed by Shrek Academy.

Yu Guanzhi raised his right hand, and said, “Please pardon my intrusion.”

A layer of azure light suddenly appeared over his right hand as he spoke, and as soon as this light emerged, the entire room was filled with a powerful aura of life.

Tang Wulin’s pupils abruptly contracted slightly upon sensing this. This was life energy of an extremely high level of purity! In terms of its concentration and degree of purity, it could even compare with the life energy of the tree of life!

Right at this moment, a green crystalline glove that looked as if it had been carved out of jade appeared over Yu Guanzhi’s hand.

This wasn’t a piece of battle armor; the incredibly abundant life energy that it was releasing struck even Tang Wulin with a noticeable sense of comfort.

One had to realize that his life force was even more powerful than that of a quasigod, so for him to be affected in this way indicated that this glove was definitely also a divine tool.

The green light appeared to be almost substantial in form, and as soon as the glove was released, Yu Guanzhi’s physical appearance seemed to have suddenly become a lot more youthful.

He reached out with his right hand without any hesitation to grab onto the Golden Dragon Spear’s shaft, and the spear immediately flashed with golden light.

The green glove also began to glow brighter in response, releasing an aura of life energy that was 10 times as potent as it had been before.

The green light instantly spread over the entire Golden Dragon Spear, and the Golden Dragon Spear’s aura completely vanished as it sat obediently in Yu Guanzhi’s grasp.

Yu Guanzhi immediately burst into triumphant laughter. “This is truly an exceptional spear!”

He could clearly sense the astonishing amount of energy contained within the Golden Dragon Spear, and he could even feel his own bloodline being altered in subtle ways by this divine weapon.

Tang Wulin looked on in amazement, and asked, “That glove is also a divine tool, right? What’s its ability?”

A slightly smug smile appeared on Yu Guanzhi’s face, and he replied, “This glove is called Tribute of Life, and it was forged from Stone of Life of the highest degree of purity by a powerful being in ancient times. It’s said that over a ton of Stone of Life was used to forge this divine tool, and only the cream of the crop was used. It’s able to create a sense of affinity with any object or living being, and it’s extremely beneficial to a Soul Master’s cultivation as an assistance type divine tool. Furthermore, any object or soul beast that comes into contact with the glove will develop a strong sense of closeness with its wearer. 

“In the past, even if an ordinary person were to wear this glove and enter the Great Star Dou Forest, they would be regarded as a friend by all soul beasts and be perfectly safe.”

Tang Wulin nodded emphatically, and praised, “I didn’t think that such a divine tool existed; the world truly is full of wonders.”

A hint of surprise appeared on Yu Guanzhi’s face. “You don’t seem reluctant to part with this spear at all, Sect Master Tang. Could it be that you were already prepared to hand it over to the federation? Rest assured, I’ll be sure to follow through on my promise. The federation has several divine tools, as does our family; you can choose any of them in exchange for this spear.”

Tang Wulin’s lips twitched slightly upon hearing this. He wasn’t surprised to hear that the federation owned several divine tools, but the fact that the same applied to the Yu Family was a clear testament of its wealth as the number one family in the military.

Tang Wulin shook his head in response. “It’s a pity that such a brilliant divine tool is going to waste…”

Yu Guanzhi was rather befuddled by this response, but in the next instant, his expression suddenly changed drastically.

The Golden Dragon Spear in his grasp suddenly turned a dark golden color, and the dragon patterns on its surface bulged outward as if a series of giant golden dragons had sprung to life on the spear.

A burst of tremendous suction force instantly erupted out of the spear, and in that instant, Yu Guanzhi felt as if he were holding a black hole rather than a spear!

The life energy imbued within Tribue of Life was extremely pure and vast, but it was being rapidly devoured by the Golden Dragon Spear.

Meanwhile, bright green light was radiating from Tang Wulin’s body, and his aura was quickly being elevated. Even the secondary tree of life outside was affected, as evidenced by the fact that all of its leaves had lit up.

Yu Guanzhi hurriedly turned to Tang Wulin with an urgent expression. “Please stop this, Sect Master Tang!”

A wry smile appeared on Tang Wulin’s face. “You should be the one letting go of the spear! I’m not responsible for this; the divine weapon has a mind of its own.”

Yu Guanzhi immediately realized the core of the problem upon hearing this, and he hurriedly tried to let go of the Golden Dragon Spear, but the spear refused to be released.

It seemed to have become glued to Tribute of Life, and Yu Guanzhi was unable to shake it off no matter what he tried.

He released his soul power in a violent eruption to try and force the Golden Dragon Spear away, but to his horror, even his soul power was devoured by the Golden Dragon Spear with relish.

He could even sense that the spear was beginning to connect with his life energy and draw upon it along with the life energy of Tribute of Life.

“This thing is way too aggressive!” Yu Guanzhi immediately arrived at a decision, hurling Tribute of Life away along with the Golden Dragon Spear.

If someone else were in his place, they would perhaps have hesitated, but as a soldier, he knew the importance of being decisive.

If he had hesitated any longer, even his cultivation base would’ve been affected.

The Golden Dragon Spear hovered in mid-air on its own, releasing a string of loud and joyful dragon’s roars.
