Awakening Of The Ancient: Rise Of The Fallen 166 Chapter 163: The Treasure

He was focused on choosing an Earth Grade Treasure for himself from the long line of weapons that were placed before him.

The Treasure Hall Elder had directly taken him to the room that had the Earth Grade Treasures.

The room had over a hundred Earth Grade Treasures. Most of them were Weapons, while some were accessories.

"Do you want offensive artifacts, defensive artifacts, or accessories with pa.s.sive effects?" The Elder asked Xu Ming.

"I want to see them all. Can you show me around?" Xu Ming asked the Elder.

"Alright. I understand. Let's start with accessories first. We only have 13 Earth Grade Accessories. Only 5 of them are suited for males, so I would skip the ones that are female-oriented."

The Elder brought Xu Ming to a bracelet that was placed on a red cloth.

"This is the Bracelet of Wind. It had been made by one of our own Artificers. He added the wind formation on it, which helps you with your speed."

He then brought Xu Ming to the next accessory, which was a pair of black boots.

"These are called the Earth Traversing Boots. This can help you walk without getting tired. Their effects are limited to walking, though. You can walk for thousands of miles while wearing them, and you don't get tired, but you can't run. The effect won't work when running," The Elder said as he pointed towards the boots.

"That's an interesting effect," Xu Ming muttered as he looked at the boots. "But, they are pretty useless to me."

"Agreed. These boots were brought back from another sect after we destroyed them," the Elder explained.

They moved to the next item.

Slowly, the Elder showed Xu Ming every Earth Grade Accessory Artifact, but Xu Ming didn't find them interesting. The effects of some of these things were good, but he didn't feel that they helped him much.

"Let's move on to the Defensive Artifacts then."

The Elder started showing Xu Ming the Defence Artifacts, which had s.h.i.+elds, Robes, and many more forms.

Most of them were used to protect the wielder in one way or another.

There were 45 Earth Grade Defensive Artifacts in the room.

"That was the last Defensive Artifact we had. Did you find any of them interesting?" the Elder asked as he glanced at Xu Ming.

"Some of them were good, and I found them interesting, but I would still like to see the rest before I make a choice," Xu Ming told the Elder.

Two hours had already pa.s.sed since Xu Ming had stepped into this room and he had seen close to half of the artifacts 

"Alright."

The Elder moved over to the first offensive artifact, which was a Spear that had the silver top and a golden body.

"This is called the Spear of Xin Mu. He was a great spear master that was known throughout the land. He had fought many great wars and defeated many warriors. Throughout his life, he had only lost once," The Elder explained.

"You want to know who had defeated him?" the Elder asked Xu Ming with an amused smile on his face.

"Who?" Xu Ming asked.

"He was too arrogant. He challenged our sect master to a duel, and our sect master accepted. You can already expect the result. That man was killed, and his artifact ended up in our Treasure Hall," the Elder laughed as he explained.

"I'm not a spear user, unfortunately. Let's move over to another weapon," Xu Ming told the Elder 

The Elder showed him another weapon, which was a blade. It was called the Killer Guan Blade. It also had a backstory, which talked about how a killer used this blade to commit Slaughter all around the continent.

That man was ultimately killed by a righteous sect who took his weapon. After some time, that righteous sect and the Mighty Demon Sect came into conflict with each other, and the Mighty Demon Sect destroyed that righteous sect. This was how their treasures and this blade ended up here.

Xu Ming could feel a murderous aura from the blade that seemed malicious.

"This blade is corrupted by the blood. Don't choose it," Valeria told Xu Ming.

Xu Ming nodded his head and skipped the blade.

After this blade, the Elder showed him many other weapons. They saw every weapon that this room had in the next hour. Xu Ming found many weapons, from swords to blades to knives. He even saw a whip here.

"This is all we have. Which one of these do you want?" the Elder asked after he finished showing Xu Ming everything.

Xu Ming had seen everything, but he still didn't find anything interesting. None of these weapons seemed extraordinary, but he still chose a sword.

He had a Gold Grade Sword, which was broken in the Core Trials. He had no weapons now other than a mortal grade sword and his G.o.d Grade Sword. He wanted a weapon he could use normally.

He selected a sword that was called the "Kun Lan Sword."

It was a pitch-black sword with a blood-red handle.

The Sword looked good, and it also had a more impressive backstory behind it. It was said that the Sect Master used this sword for most of his young life. It was a mighty sword that never let him down.

Xu Ming selected the sword and told the Elder his choice before he left the Treasure Hall with the sword in his hand. He didn't put it in his storage ring as he didn't want anyone to know that he had one.

He walked back to his courtyard with the sword in his hand. He didn't see anyone on the way.

He had noticed it often. He didn't see many people in the Core Sect. Most of the people spent most of their time in secluded Cultivation, unlike the disciples of the Inner Sect. This place looked too empty.

Xu Ming reached his courtyard and placed his sword in his storage ring.

"Now you have done everything, just focus on Cultivation and breaking through. You can safely stay here and Cultivate until you face a bottleneck. I wonder how strong you will be when we leave this place," Valeria chuckled as she flew towards the bed and landed on it.

"Not me. You need to cultivate as well. You can't slack off just because you have me," Xu Ming replied to her as he shook his head.

"I understand. I will Cultivate as well. We can race who is stronger by the time we leave," Valeria said, smilingly.
