Chapter 132: A Bountiful Return for Everyone

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Lin Junjun cried, she felt like An Lin was definitely sent down by the Heavens to test her Dao Heart.

Although… this was already the second time that she felt this way.

She was responsible for collecting information from the ruins, so all the rewards she issued out could be reimbursed by the Heavenly Court’s treasure vault.

Hence, there was no actual loss to her and Jiang Anlan for issuing these rewards.

But… that was beside the point.

The point was, she felt like she had been greatly wronged, and she had no one to even express these upset feelings to.

This was supposed to be her territory, she should’ve been the proud host bestowing rewards upon everyone.

But now… she had instead become a pauper that couldn’t even pay out their rewards!

Did she have the audacity to continue writing out blank cheques in exchange for information?

She’d probably be despised by An Lin…

No, she had already been despised!

In the face of the man who had taunted her before, she lost again, and this was a complete and utter loss…

To be honest, Jiang Anlan, An Lin and the others were all at a loss for what to do in the face of Lin Junjun’s tears.

Lin Junjun wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes before tossing a white card toward An Lin. “Take this with you, I’ll come to you for information at a later date.

“Jiang Anlan, take them to your treasure vault to receive their rewards.”

She stalked away toward her small wooden cabin without even seeing off her guests after completing her sentence, appearing completely broken.

Jiang Anlan nodded solemnly.

In truth, all he needed to do was take them to the treasure vault and hand them the key.

All the treasures in the treasure vault belonged to them now anyway…

And so, An Lin and the others all left the summit of the Cloud Mountain in high spirits.

They sat on the hundred-foot-long dragon and descended from the sky, before diving into the lake and appearing before an underwater cavern.

There was a soft white light escaping from the cavern with two giant prawns armed with spears guarding the entrance.

An Lin was enraptured upon seeing this. This was the first time he had seen this type of prawn. Within the hard outer shell, its flesh was white tinged with red, appearing to be quite delicious.

The prawn was feeling a little uncomfortable under An Lin’s malicious gaze and it involuntarily took a few steps back to get further away from this deranged foodie.

Jiang Anlan stopped to open up a bronze gate that appeared before them.

Everyone was met with the sight of mountains of spirit stones, glowing Spirit Pills, all sorts of rare treasures, tool refinement materials, as well as Spirit Tools emanating powerful auras.

Jiang Anlan stared at the treasures in front of him, taking a long while just to compose himself.

He gazed at the treasures one final time with an extremely wistful look, as if expressing his final goodbyes. “All the stuff here is yours.”

He immediately left after saying this. His heart wouldn’t be able to take it if he saw everyone take his prized treasures away from him.

Everyone looked at the vast expanse of treasures in the room, excitement fluttering in their hearts.

An Lin smiled. “You guys pick first, I’ll take what’s left.”

Everyone was extremely excited and began to pick and choose from all the treasures in the treasure vault.

They hadn’t forgotten what rewards they were entitled to and all the treasures were labeled, making it easy for them to discern.

Miao Tian picked out the elementary rank Spirit Tool, Moon Crescent Dagger. Sun Shenglian picked out a third-grade Spirit Pill along with the elementary rank Spirit Tool, Snow Jade Sword. Zong Yongyan picked out a second-grade Spirit Pill. Xiao Chou picked out the elementary rank protective Spirit Tool, Black Crystal Armor. Xiao Hong picked out a second-grade Spirit Pill as well as the elementary rank Spirit Tool, Sword of Frosty Rain.

Xiao Hong placed all these items into the storage ring An Lin had given her before retreating back into his pocket.

Immediately after this, An Lin stowed away the remaining high-rank Spirit Tool, two intermediate rank Spirit Tools, ten elementary rank Spirit Tools, over twenty high-quality Spirit Pills, a pile of tool refinement materials, and the over three hundred thousand spirit stones all into his storage ring.

Everyone swallowed involuntarily with envy upon witnessing this scene.

After emptying out the treasure vault, everyone finally made their way out.

Jiang Anlan’s heart throbbed with pain at everyone’s satisfied expressions, but these were all rewards they truly deserved. Hence, he accompanied everyone out of the lake with extremely mixed emotions.

After arriving back at the lakeside of the White Cloud Lake, everyone bade farewell to Jiang Anlan before resuming their journey.

Zong Yongyan waved his fan with contentment written all over his face. “I’m not sure if you guys have noticed, but ever since we’ve come under the wing of Big Brother An, we’ve encountered a series of fortunate events!”

“I know right,” Miao Tian’s intricate features were filled with delight as she began to count on her fingers, “first we obtained the immortal fruit, then the bloodline inheritance, and we even got to pick out these treasures in the end. It hasn’t even been ten days but we’ve already encountered so many fortunate events!”

“The number of fortunate events I’ve encountered during this short period of time exceed that of which I’ve had in the last twenty or so years.” Sun Shenglian smiled lightly as the breeze picked up strands of her silky hair, making her appear especially alluring.

Luo Ziping laughed heartily. “You can only say that this is as expected of Big Brother An, his title of the top student in our school is truly well deserved!”

Everyone’s compliments elevated An Lin into the heavens, even with his thick skin, he was starting to feel a little embarrassed.

Xiao Chou made his way over at this time and wrapped an arm around An Lin’s shoulder. “Big Brother An, I’m only now beginning to understand why you said one’s cultivation base would progress quickly after encountering opportunities whilst traveling abroad.

“I can already faintly feel that I’m about to make a breakthrough soon after receiving the Dark God Inheritance, thank you!”

An Lin was quite happy to hear this as well. “No need to thank me, we’re friends! Congratulations, it’ll be easier for our team in the future when you break through to Spirit Nurturing Final Stage.”

Xiao Chou had donned the Black Crystal Armor already, making him appear even more powerful and imposing.

However, he couldn’t help but turn his head away upon hearing An Lin’s words, his bright light-bulb-like eyes moved to the point of tears.

A thought suddenly occurred to An Lin. “Oh right, Xiao Chou, how do you think a human should cultivate if they materialize a Beast Core?”

Xiao Chou was taken aback by this question. “How is it possible for a human to materialize a Beast Core?”

“That’s not the point, the point is, how should they cultivate if they were to materialize one?” An Lin asked earnestly.

Xiao Chou scratched the fur on his head, appearing a little hesitant. “Then… they should cultivate using the methods Spirit Beasts do. But a human that has materialized a Beast Core… can probably no longer be considered a human, they should be considered as a Spirit Beast instead!”

An Lin’s heart throbbed with pain upon hearing this, Spirit Beast An Lin?

Xiao Chou continued with his analysis. “The way in which we Spirit Beasts cultivate is different from how humans cultivate. To progress in our cultivation base, we need to mainly focus on the three areas of tempering the core, refining the body, and enlightening the soul.

“Tempering the core refers to absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth daily and circulating vital energy throughout the body in order to purify and temper the Beast Core in the Jade Temple.

“Refining the body refers to exercising or engaging in battle every day, or consuming rare treasures and medicines in order to strengthen the body.

“Enlightening the soul refers to becoming one with nature and experiencing the souls of all living creatures in order to unearth one’s own consciousness and develop one’s own domain. But this is usually only something to be worried about after the Spirit Nurturing Final Stage. ”

An Lin nodded emphatically upon hearing Xiao Chou’s words.

Cultivation for Spirit Beasts was a lot simpler than for humans.

But that was quite normal. Spirit Beasts usually thrived in the mountains and didn’t really have any systematic cultivation methods so they could only rely on their own senses to cultivate. Thus, it was quite normal for their method of progression to be vastly different from human cultivators.

For tempering the core, An Lin could start that now.

As for refining the body, would filthy rich An be lacking in rare treasures to consume?

Enlightening the soul… that was far in the future so there was no need to think about it now.

An Lin gained a much greater understanding of how he should cultivate from here onwards from Xiao Chou’s introduction. Some of the confusion in his heart dissipated.

So what if he was going to be Spirit Beast An Lin? It didn’t matter as long as he could kick ass!
