Chapter 230: Chapter 201 Three Treasures
Boom! Boom! Boom!
When Ye Chen burst forth from the treasure drop, everyone, including Jiang Yao and Fairy Nishang, rushed to greet him.
"My God, Ye Chen, you are so amazing, you actually made it through the brightest treasure drop!"
"Is this the treasure from the brightest of those drops, what rank of treasure could it possibly be?"
As everyone flew towards Ye Chen, Jiang Yao, who was the most concerned about him, didn't even have the chance to speak before a Half-Step Rotating Pill impatiently looked at the ancient, black-and-red sword in Ye Chen's hand and exclaimed in astonishment.
Not just the speaking Half-Step Rotating Pill, but many others also had their eyes fixed on the ancient sword in Ye Chen's hand.
According to the rule of the thirty treasure drops, the brighter the drop, the more precious the treasure within. Ye Chen entered the brightest one, so his treasure, naturally, would be the most precious.
Everyone was eager to know just what rank the Rotating Pill-level treasure Ye Chen had acquired was.
Even Jiang Yao, after seeing that Ye Chen was alright, had her beautiful eyes fall upon the Black Fire Sword in his hand, her gaze filled with curiosity as she appraised it.
Ye Chen smiled at everyone and said aloud, "This is a 'Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument'."
Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument!
The words of Ye Chen made everyone at the scene gasp in astonishment.
A Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument, that's something many Rotating Pill Realm mid-stage, even late-stage experts, do not possess, an item incredibly close to a Sacred Artifact!
Every appearance of a Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument could definitely cause a mad scramble among countless Rotating Pill Realm experts.
Let alone a Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument; even a high-quality one holds a massive allure for Rotating Pill Realm experts.
Before, people were speculating that the brightest treasure drop might contain a high-quality Treasure Instrument, but it was beyond their imagination that what Ye Chen got was a "Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument," even more precious than a high-quality one!
"Ye Chen, how many Prohibition Runes does your Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument have?" asked Fairy Nishang, who was standing by the side.
Fairy Ni Xia, the teacher of Fairy Nishang, and the strongest in the fifth-ranked Moon Concealing Sect, also possessed not a few Treasure Instruments. Of course, she only had two Supreme Quality Treasure Instruments.
The two Supreme Quality Treasure Instruments she had, one contained seventy-two Prohibition Runes, the other seventy-seven, both immensely powerful.
The more Prohibition Runes on a Treasure Instrument, the more powerful the instrument itself.
Fairy Nishang was curious about how many Prohibition Runes Ye Chen's newly acquired Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument had, and how it would compare to the two owned by her teacher, Fairy Ni Xia, in terms of power.
"Eighty-one Prohibition Runes," Ye Chen said, as he flicked the sword with his finger, causing the sheath of the Black Fire Sword to fly into his other hand, revealing the gleaming blade.
Everyone looked at the Black Fire Sword in Ye Chen's hand and could indeed see the sword's shining surface engraved with one peculiar Prohibition Rune after another, totaling up to eighty-one.
"Eighty-one Prohibition Runes!"
Upon seeing the prohibition runes on the snow-white ancient sword held by Ye Chen, even the worldly and knowledgeable Fairy Nishang could not help but exclaim in admiration.
Fairy Nishang knew what eighty-one Prohibition Runes represented.
It was said that the grade of a Treasure Instrument was determined by the Prohibition Runes inscribed on it—the higher the grade, the more Prohibition Runes it could bear.
A lower quality Treasure Instrument typically had fewer than thirty Prohibition Runes. A mid-quality one generally had thirty to fifty. A high-quality one usually boasted fifty to seventy.
And once a Treasure Instrument surpassed seventy Prohibition Runes, it's recognized as the strongest among them, a Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument!
It was rumored that it became increasingly difficult to inscribe Prohibition Runes on a Treasure Instrument as the number grew higher. Exceeding seventy could easily cause the instrument itself to collapse, which was why Supreme Quality Treasure Instruments were exceedingly rare.
Having a Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument with seventy-something Prohibition Runes was already inconceivably impressive, attaining eighty seemed nearly impossible.
Moreover, it was said that eighty-one, this number of nine nines, is the ultimate limit of Prohibition Runes on a Supreme Quality Treasure Instrument, with no known existence of any surpassing eighty-one runes!
Forget the ultimate eighty-one; as far as Fairy Nishang knew, even among the Rotating Pill advanced-stage experts of Heavenly Wind Kingdom who possessed Supreme Quality Treasure Instruments, none of their runes reached the count of eighty.
Now, the Treasure Instrument that Ye Chen had obtained possessed the ultimate eighty-one Prohibition Runes, surpassing the power of all Treasure Instruments held by Rotating Pill experts in Heavenly Wind Kingdom!
This ancient tomb, truly fitting of the Heavenly Saint Ancient Tomb, contains treasures from the brightest drop that are so tremendously powerful!
"Ye Chen, you should give this Treasure Instrument to Fairy Jia Luo; she will be overjoyed!" Fairy Nishang said enviously to Ye Chen in the end.
Ye Chen just smiled, without a word.
As Spirit Sea Realm individuals venturing into the ancient tomb, according to the rules, half of the treasures they found had to be given to the Rotating Pill Realm experts, and the most precious of these claimed by the Rotating Pill experts themselves. Hence Fairy Nishang's remark.
However, what Fairy Nishang didn't know was that within the Taixuan Sect to which Ye Chen belonged, Fairy Jia Luo's word was law. Long before entering the tomb, Fairy Jia Luo had declared that no one could take any treasures from both Ye Chen and Jiang Yao, her two disciples; not even Fairy Jia Luo herself would take a single one.
