Chapter 2052 - 2041: Holy Church Treasury
Chapter 2052 - 2041: Holy Church Treasury
"Your family is so big and powerful that you don't care, but we small households can't compare."Ning Fan said happily, "Don't worry. You won't lose out on anything. Once we're out, you can pick any kind of jewelry you want, and your brother won't even blink an eye."
At this moment, Ning Fan's smug face was just like someone who pampered Mi'er excessively.
The previously frustrated Vivian instantly felt a lot better, so she kindly reminded him, "You don't have Holy Power, you can't use Angel Wings."
"What!"
Ning Fan said in surprise, "You say I can't use them."
"Yes. Only Holy Power can activate the internal array."
"Whether it's useful or not, I'll keep it anyway."
Ning Fan gave Vivian a suspicious look; he had clearly heard her previous sarcastic remark.
"This cunning Evil Dragon, could she be trying to trick me into handing it over because she thinks I don't know anything?"
Once again looking at the shining amber in his hand, its brilliance outshone any diamond and happened to be one of Vivian's favorite collectibles.
As if realizing something, Ning Fan dashed towards the three-story building.
"Oh no!"
Vivian was in a panic and chased after him like a gust of wind, her figure disappearing but her voice lingering in the air, "Leave some for me."
An hour later, after ransacking, a person and a dragon met in the first-floor living room.
Ning Fan had to admit that in terms of plundering treasures, he indeed wasn't as talented as Vivian.
Even though he initially had the upper hand, Ning Fan's final gains were far less than Vivian's.
Vivian actually found the Pope's secret treasure chamber.
"How can you blame me? Ordinarily, the most valuable things are either in the study or the master bedroom."
So Ning Fan, based on his experience, occupied the third floor.
The good news was that the study and master bedroom were indeed on the third floor.
But the bad news was, this Pope didn't play by the rules at all. His treasure room was actually in the utility room on the first floor.
When the magic forbidden in the utility room was lifted, the towering Holy Power light erupted, stirring the elements in the sky.
It made Ning Fan's intestines twist in regret, feeling like he had missed out on billions.
But by the time he rushed over, it was too late. Vivian was occupying the doorway, laughing heartily to the sky.
Ning Fan's only gain was a single item. Strictly speaking, it was a set, a set of battle armor shimmering with silver light.
Although the armor was delicate in design, with beautiful lines and a commanding presence, the Holy Power it emitted was inferior to what Vivian had found.
On Vivian's side, there were eight pieces of amber sealed with Angel Wings.
There were also twenty-three baby palm-sized purple diamond-shaped crystals, with a misty purple energy swirling inside them.
Feeling the abundant magic power emanating from them, Ning Fan blurted out, "Top-tier Magic Crystal Stones!"
"Good eye. These are indeed top-tier Magic Crystal Stones, and they even contain a trace of Rule Power."
Vivian said with a complex expression, "I really don't know how they managed to collect these things. Even in the Divine Realm, these are considered treasures."
The Divine Spirits don't just use Divine Power. The main purpose of Divine Power is to analyze the rules and unleash powerful Divine Spells; Magic Power is the most conventional means.
It's not like True Qi and Spiritual Energy, which have such a vast difference between them.
That's why Eastern True Qi cultivators cannot compete with Western Magic Power cultivators.
Besides the twenty plus top-tier Magic Crystal Stones containing Rule Power, the rest were intermediate and advanced-level Magic Crystal Stones.
Though numerous, their quality was a bit lacking, which could be seen from Vivian's uninterested glance at them.
Vivian was used to having her head in the clouds; in the Divine Realm, she had seen all sorts of good treasures.
But for the impoverished Ning Fan, even a single intermediate-level Magic Crystal Stone was an invaluable treasure.
The magic in an intermediate-level Magic Crystal Stone was more abundant than that in a First Grade Spirit Pill.
Spirit Pills even have the side effect of being too potent to handle, with the concept that "during medicine, there is always some poison."
However, intermediate-level Magic Crystal Stones are truly non-toxic and harmless treasures.
Any cultivator can easily absorb the power within them.
Mages absorb and transform it into Magic Power, while warriors absorb and transform it into Battle Aura.
And it never goes to waste; when the absorption limit is exceeded, the magic in the crystal stone flows back into the crystal structure, depleting it over time.
If it falls into the hands of a non-cultivator, it can genuinely strengthen the body, prolong life and delay aging.
Its effect is like the Divine Power stream previously flowing in Ning Fan's body, strengthening it day and night.
According to William, a Magic Crystal Stone the size of a fingernail is a rare treasure in the Western cultivation world, not something money can buy.
And that's just the lowest-grade Magic Crystal Stone scraps.
As for higher-quality or complete low-level Ink Crystal Stones, they've already become legends.
The true Magic Crystal Stone mines have long disappeared in the Origin World.
All the "Magic Crystal Stones" found are actually mere scraps found in suspected Magic Crystal Stone mines.
And now, before Ning Fan, is a collection of hundreds of complete crystal bodies, and the lowest grade among them is intermediate-level.
"No wonder this is a religious sect thousands of years old. Such deep resources could drive anyone... insane!"
For a moment, Ning Fan wanted to just flip the switch and take these treasures while Vivian was overwhelmed by the backlash of the Light of Life.
But this was just a thought, and within seconds, Ning Fan calmed down. Instead of doing something so despicable, it would be better to use more righteous methods.
"Vivian, hehe... today's haul isn't bad, huh?"
Ning Fan rubbed his hands, smiling slyly like an old fox that had just stolen a chicken.
"It's alright."
Vivian said casually, her little hands picking through the pile of Magic Crystal Stones cheerfully.
This indifferent expression wasn't an alternate form of bragging; she genuinely didn't care.
Besides the twenty-plus top-tier Magic Crystal Stones with Rule Power that could catch her interest, the other items weren't worth her attention.
At the moment, Vivian was just picking through these Magic Crystal Stones, looking for ones with more flashy, dazzling brilliance.
Whether they were advanced Magic Crystal Stones or low-level ones, that didn't even matter.
That's just how dedicated and focused this dragon was.
Watching Vivian being picky, Ning Fan's smile grew more ingratiating, "Vivian, can I discuss something with you?"
"Go on... this one looks nice."
As she spoke, Vivian smiled with narrowed eyes, pulling a perfectly cut, more radiant Magic Crystal Stone in front of her.
Seeing this, Ning Fan's heart skipped a beat, and then he sighed in relief, "Phew. Just an intermediate-level Magic Crystal Stone. Not a big loss!"
That's right! Ning Fan had already claimed all these treasures as his own.
"They eat from me, use my things, live in my place; everything is mine, even their lives are saved by me, so giving up a bit of trivial stuff isn't too much, is it?"
"Not too much, not at all."
