Chapter 433 Chapter 32 Merit Treasure Vault, Who is Chong Er?_3

The visible second-in-command of the Dayu Divine Dynasty!

"I have taught you how to use the Qiankun Jade Belt. Just store them in it for now. Their physical bodies have been eroded by the Mo River, and their cultivation level has been damaged. Once you gain recognition from the Ji Family and become a chosen one, you'll be able to apply to send them to the sacred land of the Ji Family for recuperation,"

said Ji Yun Ge.

The Qiankun Jade Belt he was talking about was the jade belt that the short man had thrown to Li Hao.

It contained the Tao Rhyme Blood Fruit and claimed to be a space of its own realm.

It was not much different from the space created by the Tao Heart Realm; only it was moved to a treasure by a powerful being. In the Ancient Holy Clan, such an item was known as a small world.

The small world space inside the Qiankun Jade Belt was vast, comparable to the space created by those in the Defying Fate Realm, so there was no problem accommodating the Candle Fire God Couple whose physical bodies were damaged.

"Now, I'm finally home."

Having finished his instructions to Li Hao, Ji Yun Ge had no more worries and turned his gaze to the scenery ahead, his obsessions gradually dissipating.

As his obsessions faded, Li Hao felt a warmth in his palm, and a golden light emerged, the very Mo River gold paper.

It was now fluttering before his eyes, with ancient characters etched on its surface:

[Progress 100%, clearing Dragon City Mo River, reward, 100,000 merit points.]

[Congratulations, you are the first person in the Great Yu Realm to accumulate 100,000 merit points, unlocking the Merit Treasure Vault.]

[Congratulations, you have summoned the Merit Treasure Vault, reward 10,000 merit points.]

[Mo River is about to close, please leave the Mo River]

Then, Li Hao saw his merit ranking on the side of the gold paper, leaping to the first place.

He had now pushed down the original number one, Wang Zhendong.

The other's merit points, which were 9372 when Li Hao last saw them at Fengshan Mo River, had now reached 9527.

Still not breaking ten thousand.

As Li Hao was astonished, the gold paper reflected a golden light which again converged into characters:n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

[Merit Treasure Vault is now open, you may enter and exchange merit points for treasured merits]

At the same time, a small, delicate golden hall of merit appeared on the gold paper.

With a thought, Li Hao felt as if his consciousness was drawn into it, as though he had suddenly arrived at a palace resplendent with gold and jade.

In front of him, treasures containing the breath of the Great Dao of heaven and earth floated all around.

Li Hao lifted his head, and immediately was stunned.

Too astonishing.

The names of those treasures left him dumbfounded.

[Sword Heart: for sale, 100 merit points]

[Grandmaster's Heart: for sale, 100 merit points]

[Nine Cast Divine Soldier: for sale, 10,000 merit points]

[Defying Fate Power: for sale, 10,000 merit points]

[Power Limit Realm · Divine Power: for sale, 10,000 merit points]

[Saint Heart Heavenly Treasure: for sale, 50,000 merit points]

[Dao Enlightenment Fruit: for sale, 100,000 merit points]

...

Li Hao doubted his eyes. These merit treasures were far too incredible!

Sword Heart? Wasn't that a state of mind? And it could be exchanged?!

And what about Defying Fate Power? That was a unique ability that only Defying Fate Realm powerhouses possessed, equivalent to a second life!

And here, it could be exchanged for just 10,000 merit points!

The Power Limit Realm was even more exaggerated, the state of Divine Power was also exchangeable, and the required merit points were the same as for Defying Fate Power.

"This is too exaggerated,"

Li Hao felt it was unbelievable, these things that were so difficult to obtain, in this Mo River's Merit Treasure Vault, had all become "items" that could be directly exchanged!

...

...

As Li Hao unlocked the Merit Treasure Vault, the entire Dayu Divine Dynasty, across all nineteen provinces, was in an uproar!

All who had ever set foot in the Mo River felt a scorching heat in their palms and immediately thereafter, the gold paper emerged, bursting out with golden light:

[In the Great Yu Realm of the Dayu Divine Dynasty, the first to reach 100,000 merit points has appeared, now unlocking the Merit Treasure Vault]

The prompt written in golden light left everyone dumbfounded.

As they entered the Merit Treasure Vault with uncertainty, they were immediately astounded by what they saw inside.

According to their own merit points, they could only see the next level of treasured merits.

For example, 100 points of merit could at most allow one to view treasures priced at 1,000 points of merit.

But with just 10 points of merit, one would be able to see merits treasures priced at 100 points.

The Sword Heart, the Grandmaster's Heart!

Merely catching a glimpse of these had caused countless people to be shocked and astounded.

Apart from the Sword Heart, there were also the Knife Heart, Spear Heart, and many other weapons' State of Mind!

One must realize, comprehending and internalizing this is essential for a genius!

But now, it could actually be directly exchanged?

In the past, this required aptitude and enlightenment, tightly gate-kept, and only geniuses could comprehend!

And the Grandmaster's Heart was even more so, many talented individuals from large families could bolster themselves to the Fifteen Li Realm with resources, but some would be stuck in the Celestial Master Realm for decades, desiring yet failing to obtain it.

No matter how doting their parents were or how many resources they spent, they couldn't forcefully push them into the Grandmaster Realm, and in the end, they could only fade into obscurity, their hearts for seeking the Dao withering and crumbling.

However now, the Grandmaster's Hearts in this Merit Treasure Vault gave them hope!

"Heavens, this is simply a treasure trove!"

"Even the Grandmaster's Heart can be exchanged, this is too exaggerated!"

"If one could clear the Yinsha level Mo River, they would get 1,000 points of merit, enough to exchange for ten units!"

"Can Grandmaster's Hearts be stacked? Will one become a super Grandmaster?"

"You're thinking too much."

At the same time, fierce discussions erupted everywhere within the Dayu Divine Dynasty.

Countless scions of noble families and Divine General Mansions all were stirred by this earth-shattering change.

In the capital, the Holy City.

Within the majestic and solemn Imperial Palace, Emperor Yu was presiding over the morning court session, seated upright in the great hall.

His figure, revealed during the morning court, was tall and straight, embodying middle age, robust and sturdy, with eyes like the sun and moon that seemed to capture one's soul, intimidating and difficult to look directly at.

Beneath his feet, on the dragon carpet, numerous ministers and martial commanders stood rigid on both sides.

At this moment, they were discussing the matter of bestowing merits for governance in Liangzhou.

"That Li Family..."

A civil official was in the midst of giving his report when suddenly, a series of exclamations arose.

The civil official's heart skipped a beat, thinking he had chosen the wrong side or misspoken, and as he nervously looked up, he saw streaks of golden light appearing on both sides of the court.

The Mo River had stretched into the Dayu Divine Dynasty for more than two thousand years, becoming increasingly obvious and severe from eight hundred years ago. Initially, it was only in the frontiers, manageable within a small scope. But now, it was gradually expanding.

Ever since the Wang Family was tasked with guarding the Mo River, this project also became a means to pledge loyalty. Thus, many ministers, in order to show their loyalty and conform to court policies, went to the Mo River to get their own gold papers from the Mo River Registry.

After all, slaying demons could be done with trickery, but the gold papers from the Mo River Registry were tangible and could be presented at any time to prove one's loyal and benevolent heart.

"Merit Treasure Vault?"

"What situation is this?"

"The first person to accumulate ten thousand merits has appeared? How is that possible, I remember Wang Zhendong's merit points were close to ten thousand, is there a mistake with the Mo River?"

"Ten thousand?"

Everyone was shocked and in uproar.

Quickly, someone took out the Merit List, and instantly saw a name at the very top, surpassing the Wang Family's iron-fisted general:

Chong Er!

"Who is Chong Er?!"

"Who is this person with such a strange name, who is Chong Er?!"

In the court, everyone was looking at each other in dismay, exchanging shocked glances.

Among them, several officials surnamed Wang were stunned; they all knew how terrifying the Mo River was, and yet a name not bearing the surname Wang had appeared at the top of the Merit List?!

One must know, since the introduction of the Merit List, aside from the ranking, it hardly held any significance, and thus not many were willing to challenge the Mo River, even those Sword Saints and Blade Saints would rather slay demons than face the Mo River.

After all, the Mo River Authority gave too little, while demon slaying provided fame, merits, and official appointments, with the treatment vastly different between the two.

Sitting on the dragon throne, Emperor Yu himself was stunned; such a miraculous occurrence was a first for him.

Merit Treasure Vault?

His eyes focused, landing on that page of the treasure vault; with a flicker of spiritual thought, he immediately penetrated it.

Soon, a magnificent palace no less glorious than the Imperial Palace emerged in his mind, filled with numerous merit treasures.

"Sword Heart?"

"Power of Defying Fate?!"

Emperor Yu's gaze swept over, his pupils shrinking slightly as he was thoroughly shocked.

He instantly realized the world-shaking transformations the Merit Treasure Vault's emergence would bring, as well as its astonishing merit!
