"The Daji Dynasty has the Martial Arts Heaven and Earth as a foundation to suppress the national fortune. So what does the neighboring Yuan Country rely on? I remember my brother once said that in Yuan Country, the Imperial Court and the sects rule the world together. The most formidable sect I know of is the origin of the Fourteen Realms magical treasure, the 'Fire Beak Pot'—the 'Fire Virtue Sect'. Could Yuan Country rely on many such magical treasures like the Fire Beak Pot?"

Chen Ku thought about how just one Fire Beak Pot could turn into a thousand-meter-high mountain. It was hard to imagine what kind of power a more advanced magical treasure would possess.

Could it also evolve into a small world like the Martial Arts Heaven and Earth?

He shook his head, not thinking further.

Instead, he turned and walked towards the stone tablet to check the current martial destiny points he had accumulated.

After killing the giant crocodile and the ancient Jiao Hou, and before receiving the reward from the Martial Temple, he had already absorbed the martial destiny points gained from defeating the giant crocodile and Jiao Hou into the Martial Arts Gold Order.

Upon checking,

he discovered to his surprise that he had already amassed fourteen thousand five hundred martial destiny points.

Just five hundred points short of gathering enough for forging any top-grade famous weapon level item.

Chen Ku browsed through the various items listed on the Martial Temple's stone stele, drooling:

"They're all good stuff."

All those Divine Weapon level weapons and World-Surpassing Martial Arts level cultivation techniques were impressive, but beyond weapons and cultivation techniques, Chen Ku noticed that his 'Breakthrough Pill,' obtained after breaking the Yellow Sand Ridge record, turned out to be an expensive pill worth thirty thousand martial destiny points.

"If I can break through myself, I won't need this Breakthrough Pill, but I wonder if I can sell it to someone else at a discount?"

Seeing the Divine Weapon that required eighteen thousand martial destiny points for crafting, Chen Ku felt like he was back in his days of being poor, wanting things but never having enough money to buy them.

Mainly because Chen Ku also noticed something very necessary for him.

[Fire Extinguishing Pearl (direct sale price of fifty thousand martial destiny)]

[Crafting Materials: Ten-thousand-year Cold Crystal]

[Crafting Cost: Fifteen thousand martial destiny]

[Function: Greatly enhances the wearer's resistance to intense fire, able to withstand up to Seventh Level Fire Flames for about two hours]

Seeing this item listed under 'Accessories',

Chen Ku immediately thought of how it could help him.

It would allow him to delve deep into Fire Beak Mountain in one go, not only accessing the precious Seventh Realm Evil Qi but also attempting to 'subdue' the possibility of the Fire Beak Pot.

After all, according to the introduction of the Fire Beak Pot,

this treasure, although it belonged to the Fourteen Realms in those days, with its materials and device among the Fourteen Realms category, had its boundary drop to the Ninth Realm level due to the loss of its Artifact Spirit.

If he had this Fire Extinguishing Pearl capable of withstanding Seventh Level Flames, he might really be able to obtain the 'Remnant Body' of the Fourteen Realms magical treasure ahead of time and then restore it to the Fourteen Realms magical treasure by infusing it with an Artifact Spirit.

"I have no idea where to find a Ten-thousand-year Cold Crystal, these Martial Temples hide their things too well. It might be better to directly purchase it with fifty thousand martial destiny."

After thinking it over, Chen Ku decided that compared to the eighteen thousand crafting cost of a Divine Weapon, it was too far-fetched and would be difficult to achieve in a short time. It was better to save up martial destiny for the Fire Extinguishing Pearl.

"Now I should go find the Dragon Horse. Along the way, I might encounter demons, which would be a perfect opportunity to test the power of my new 'Coiled Dragon Staff'."

He had already learned from his sparrow and mouse friends about the whereabouts of the Dragon Horse—a couple of hours ago, it appeared near a lake six hundred miles from here.

The six hundred-mile journey was just enough for him to test out his armor and weapon.

Soon, Chen Ku moved forward and within less than half a quarter-hour, came across a Fourth Realm demon, and without hesitation, struck it with his staff.

With this thirteen thousand five hundred catties Coiled Dragon Staff in hand, he felt once again the exhilarating sensation he experienced when wielding his master's Water-Fire Dragon Head Staff.

It was truly like replacing a bird gun with a cannon!

Although he was already able to kill Fourth Realm demons with one strike before, with the Coiled Dragon Staff, he felt that if he were to encounter the Iron Armor Rhinoceros again, he could definitely smash it flat.

Furthermore,

he finally experienced the power of armor. The Yuan Tuo Silver Armor he wore was somewhat heavy, but compared to his divine power, it felt weightless.

Chen Ku wanted to test the defensive capabilities of his armor.

When he encountered the second Fourth Realm demon, a 'Fourth Realm Saber-toothed Wolf', he stood still and let its teeth, comparable to famous weapons, gnaw at him!

The result was that the beast's teeth were broken, and Chen Ku was unharmed, promptly killing the test subject with one blow and collecting martial destiny.

Through this test, Chen Ku thought to himself:

"Perhaps, with this top-grade famous weapon armor, combined with the Vajra Body, Iron Armor, Iron Cloth Shirt, and other protective techniques, I could even face my master's 'Furious Ape Mighty Staff'."

This was not an exaggeration, but rather because what was on him now was too precious.

His master Yang Luochen had lived over a hundred years and only acquired one famous weapon level Water-Fire Dragon Head Staff, yet he now possessed two top-grade famous weapon equipment pieces and a famous weapon level Black Gold Arm Guard, surpassing his master in terms of equipment grade and quantity.

The only things lacking were the realm gap of four and five realms as well as the difference between the great achievement and perfection of the Furious Ape Mighty Staff.

With that, Chen Ku continued his journey towards the lakeside.

In less than half a day, he reached the lake, having slain more than ten Fourth Realm demons and many Third Realm demons along the way, accumulating over five thousand martial destiny points and bringing his martial destiny balance to around twenty thousand.
