Jiang Fan was stunned for a while.
He even suspected he was seeing things, but upon closer inspection, they really were shoes!
Not just shoe-like, but actual shoes!
The shoes not only had woven textures but also exquisite embroideries.
Moreover, each shoe was different.
So were red embroidered shoes, so were black leather boots, and others were baby shoes.
Stranger still, each shoe had wrinkles and stains.
They looked like they had been worn!
If it weren’t for each shoe having the unique stem of a fruit attached, and connected to the trunk by a slender stalk, Jiang Fan would find it hard to believe that these were plants!
No, even so, he found it hard to believe.
He rubbed his temples and said, "Are these shoes for real?"
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord twitched his mouth and said, "Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures from beyond the skies are indeed quite unique."
"I’ve heard that the Black Dragon Venerable used to eat Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures while cursing them."
Jiang Fan felt a wave of dizziness.
Looking at the colorful shoes, he said, "Are you sure the Black Dragon Venerable was reluctant to eat them?"
Isn’t it more like he couldn’t even bring himself to eat them?
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord touched his nose, coughed dryly, and said, "Anyway, let’s grab them first!"
"Don’t be put off by the creepy look of these Spirit Fruits; they are quite extraordinary!"
"Eating one can unleash different speeds based on the shoe’s size."
"Did you see that large black leather boot? The Black Dragon Venerable once said that after eating it, you could achieve speed comparable to a Sage, crossing a Great State in less than the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea!"
"Even the smallest baby shoe, after eating it, can attain Heavenly Human Two Declines’ speed!"
"Help gather more shoes!"
Sage’s speed?
Jiang Fan was shocked, a blazing excitent surged in his heart.
But when he thought of having to eat shoes that others had worn, goosebumps rose all over his body.
He held a Little Black Snake and entered the Crystal Chamber.
He casually picked a shoe, and with a face full of disdain, said:
"Eat shoes? Not even a dog would eat that!!"
"Dogs wouldn’t eat it, but Rebellious Guy and the West Sea Crown Prince would!"
Jiang Fan turned his disdain into a smile, tucked the shoe into his Space Storage Device.
Then he quickly picked all the shoes, a total of ten, big and small.
He kept the baby shoe and kept the rest.
"Here you go." Jiang Fan tossed the baby shoe to the Soul Shadow Demon Lord.
The latter was stunned and said, "You’re giving just this?"
Jiang Fan rolled his eyes at him, "If you don’t want it, give it back!"
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord gritted his teeth; could this guy swear that his insides were not black?
However, thinking about killing Jiang Fan later, he held back his frustration and said, "A small shoe is fine."
"I’ll take you to the place of the last treasure!"
He flickered to a near place.
Jiang Fan followed, looked at the Crystal Chamber first, and rubbed his eyes to prevent them from popping out.
However.
This Crystal Chamber wasn’t originally there; it was dug by the Black Dragon Venerable himself.
Inside was a patch of extrely fertile black soil.
It contained trendous fertility, though not as miraculous as Breath Soil, it was far superior to common soil.
Stuck in the black soil was a bare, two-foot-long wooden stick.
About as thick as a woman’s wrist, just enough to hold in one grasp.
At the end of the stick was a small purple bud.
"What is this?" Jiang Fan muttered.
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord’s eyes glowed with excitent, "This is a piece of Divine Wood the Black Dragon Venerable sohow acquired."
"It’s said to co from a Divine Tree thousands of years old."
"The Black Dragon Venerable nurtured it for a lifeti, and it only grew one bud."
Thousands of years old?
Jiang Fan clicked his tongue; the ancient tree in Hunyuan State only had a history of a thousand years.
If it lived for thousands of years, what realm must it have cultivated to?
He asked, "Are you planning to take the wood and continue to nurture it?"
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord scoffed, "Do I have such patience?"
"This Divine Wood carries a power that suppresses the soul; a hit with it can cause soul-crushing pain, ignoring a person’s cultivation."
Ignoring a person’s cultivation?
Jiang Fan hesitated, unsure, "What level of realm do you an by ignoring cultivation?"
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord said, "The Black Dragon Venerable once hit himself with it and cursed his mother for a day."
"As for a Sage... never tried, and no one dared to try."
"After all, testing it would an dying."
Jiang Fan took a deep breath.
Even a Great Venerate at Heavenly Human Five Declines would be in pain?
At this level, the endurance for pain should far exceed ordinary people’s.
Even with bodily injuries, they might not frown.
He couldn’t quite imagine what it felt like when the Divine Wood struck.
If only Wang Chongxiao was here.
He would have the most to say about it.
This ti, without being urged by the Soul Shadow Demon Lord, Jiang Fan, holding the Little Black Snake, approached the restriction.
He noted that the Little Black Snake’s color had faded significantly.
It seed that using it twice in succession had consud it.
This ant he couldn’t open all the restrictions.
What a pity.
The Black Dragon Venerable’s collection truly astounded him.
Each item more extraordinary than the last, he wanted them all.
With the restriction opened, Jiang Fan entered the Crystal Chamber and used telekinesis to pull out the Divine Wood.
After confirming there were no problems, he dared to touch it with his hands.
It felt cool in his hand, as light as a feather, and had no spiritual pressure.
It was just like an ordinary piece of wood.
He could hardly believe it could make a Great Venerate scream.
"Hey, you can’t possibly claim this too, can you?"
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord anxiously said.
Jiang Fan casually tucked it into the Heavenly Thunder Stone and said, "First help find Ling Shu and Liu Li."
"Then I’ll give them all to you, including the lotus seeds of the Black Lotus of Tribulation."
Seeing Jiang Fan place it in the Heavenly Thunder Stone, the Soul Shadow Demon Lord breathed a slight sigh of relief.
The Heavenly Thunder Stone was a natural Space Storage Device, requiring no incantation to open.
As long as he killed Jiang Fan next, the lotus seeds of the Black Lotus of Tribulation, a pool of Spiritual Liquid, the Divine Wood, and the Black Dragon Venerable’s drop of venom would all be his!
Jiang Fan’s eyes narrowed slightly.
He had taken three items, and the Soul Shadow Demon Lord was about to turn hostile.
Within the Crystal Chamber, he didn’t rush out but instead tried asking:
"Senior, you’ve taken so many of the Black Dragon Venerable’s things; what if he catches you and I get exposed?"
"Shouldn’t we just put everything back?"
While speaking, he took out the Divine Wood and put it back.
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord grew anxious upon seeing this and said, "At this point, how can you still back out?"
"Rest assured, the Black Dragon Venerable can’t sense !"
Jiang Fan frowned, "You must give a reason to be at ease, right?"
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord hesitated, reluctant to speak.
Suddenly.
The Throne World shook violently!
The voice of the Black Dragon Venerable penetrated through the world.
"You two hide well, don’t co out!"
The Soul Shadow Demon Lord’s expression changed and said, "Not good!"
"The Black Dragon Venerable and Golden Scale Venerate have fought their way into the cave!"
"Quickly, co out! Otherwise, it’ll be too late!"
Jiang Fan’s face changed slightly.
Then, he deeply gazed at the Soul Shadow Demon Lord, nodded, and said, "Okay."
"Take to find Ling Shu and Liu Li!"
He put away the Divine Wood but then took out the Black Dragon Venerable’s venom.
Seeing this, the Soul Shadow Demon Lord’s eyes narrowed, filled with both greed and fear.
He said, "Follow !"
"They are in a Crystal Chamber within the Crystal Mine."
"Additionally, I’ll gift them a stroke of fortune!"
