Chapter 748, Hall of Battle Points
Translator: Jon
Translation Checker: Silavin
When Lu Ye was in Myriad Beast Domain previously, he already realised that compared with killing enemies, he could earn even more battle points by taking part in the major events and playing a key role in a Hidden Realm.
That was the case for Myriad Beast Domain.
However, he didn’t obtain a lot of battle points at that time. It was around 30,000 points. The reason was that many cultivators of the Grand Sky Coalition had joined forces to destroy Niu Meng, so the battle points were shared among these people.
In the Lost City of Xianyuan, he managed to earn a large number of battle points because the insectoids he had killed were in the Real Lake Realm.
There was a huge difference between how many battle points one could get by killing a Real Lake Realm Master and a Cloud River Realm Master.
Killing a Ninth-Order Cloud River Realm Master would only get him 60 battle points, but destroying a First-Order Real Lake Realm Master would earn him 100 points, and it would be 900 points for killing a Ninth-Order Real Lake Realm Master.
During the trip to Soaring Dragon Boundary, if not for the fact that Lu Ye had played a key role and even acted as a catalyst in the major events, he couldn’t have earned such a massive reward.
Around 280,000 battle points could be traded for 17 Golden Amulets.
He was a Sixth-Order Cloud River Realm Master now, and 17 Golden Amulets would allow him to make it to the Eighth Order or even the Ninth Order.
This made him feel elated.
He went downstairs and arrived at the hall where many people instantly shifted their attention to him.
He swept a glance over them and saw many cultivators of Thousand Demon Ridge, who had waited for him outside the Divine Trade Association. Xia Liang and Tan Sheng were also among them.
Initially, he had gotten rid of Xia Liang and the others, but they met again here in the hall.
In fact, they didn’t come here for Lu Ye; they were there to seek medical treatment.
The Divine Trade Association was involved in all sorts of businesses, including treating injuries and providing shelter. Many skilful Medical Cultivators were stationed in the Association all year round, but they charged exorbitant fees.
Under normal circumstances, the cultivators of both sides wouldn’t want to look for the Medical Cultivators in the Association.
Nonetheless, Xia Liang and the others had no choice. This Divine Trade Association was the nearest place where they could get help, so they rushed over.
While on their way, they received news that Lu Ye was hiding in this Association.
Now that the enemies met, they were naturally bitter. All of their eyes were filled with iciness and murderous intent.
Lu Ye just ignored them.
Inside the Divine Trade Association, unless they were sick of living, they wouldn’t make a move.
The cultivators of Thousand Demon Ridge watched as Lu Ye headed to the Divine Opportunity Column and waited behind the queue.
“Do not act on a whim, Brother Xia. We’d better dispel the poison first. Unless Lu Ye makes use of the Divine Opportunity Column to return to Jiu Zhou, he won’t be able to escape.” Although Tan Sheng’s face was green and his breathing was unstable, he still tried to calm Xia Liang down.
Xia Liang took a deep breath and felt a pain in his chest. He then nodded and replied, “I understand.”
Both of them took a long look at Lu Ye before speaking to the Manager to seek the help of Medical Cultivators in the Association.
The queue in front of the Divine Opportunity Column moved pretty quickly. After all, the cultivators there already knew what they wanted to buy, so they wouldn’t stay for a long time.
It was Lu Ye’s turn in just an hour.
He stepped forward and pressed his hand against the Divine Opportunity Column. As a thought flashed across his mind, the Vault of Providence appeared before his eyes.
As usual, he looked for Mystic Flames or Core Flames that the Tree of Glyphs could consume. Unfortunately, there were fewer than 20 flames available.
He also purchased a lot of Mutant Cores and Ward Flags. All in all, he spent fewer than 10,000 Contribution points.
Then, it was the important moment he had been looking forward to. Naturally, he was thrilled. It was his first time carrying so many battle points to trade for Golden Amulets.
A thought flashed through his mind. [Golden Amulets!]
The sight in the Vault of Providence shifted, but it was different from usual. The motion didn’t stop quickly, nor were there any Golden Amulets before his eyes.
Suddenly, a message sprang into his mind. He comprehended it and soon understood the content.
‘You have a right to enter the Hall of Battle Points.’
[Hall of Battle Points? What kind of place is that?]
Lu Ye was astounded. As he recalled the information he knew about the Cloud River Battlefield, he didn’t remember seeing any records of the Hall of Battle Points.
He was no longer a newbie here, so he was aware of the basic information about the Cloud River Battlefield. Even though he hadn’t come into contact with many things, he had heard of them.
Moreover, it was quite obvious what the Hall of Battle Points was for. If any cultivator had entered the Hall of Battle Points before, there was no way there hadn’t been any information about it.
However, based on his comprehension, not anybody could enter the Hall of Battle Points, for there was a mention of the word ‘right’ in the message.
As for what right one needed to have to enter the Hall of Battle Points, Lu Ye had no idea. Perhaps one had to carry a large number of battle points, or there were other requirements.
[This world is getting more interesting.]
Since he now had a right to enter the Hall of Battle Points, he naturally had to take a look.
He read the words ‘Hall of Battle Points’ in his mind.
The next instant, the sight around him stopped shifting. He lifted his head and saw an ancient and hefty closed door in front of him. The door was flanked by two moving Flood Dragons with horns over their foreheads. It was as if they were living creatures.
When Lu Ye looked at them, they stopped and glanced at him as well. Their eyes radiated a cold glint as they hissed, making him feel anxious.
At the same time, ferocious auras came right at him.
Lu Ye was terrified deep within, for the two Flood Dragons were indeed living creatures.
Moreover, their auras were inscrutable. Given Lu Ye’s eyesight and perception, he was unable to know how powerful they were.
[Are two Flood Dragons keeping guard at the entrance? What’s with the Hall of Battle Points?]
There was a rusty plaque above the door that read ‘Hall of Battle Points’.
“Oh?” Suddenly, the Flood Dragon on the left spoke the Human language. Its long body stuck out of the door and surrounded Lu Ye. Its enormous head was only centimetres away from his face, and its hot breath prickled his face.
“Finally, another person is here after so many years.” The Flood Dragon seemed to be breathing in Lu Ye’s aura. “What’s more, he’s a young and energetic man!”
The other Flood Dragon remained unmoving on the right side of the door as it said, “He’s pretty audacious as well!”
Although Lu Ye was usually calm and collected, he was apprehensive at this moment. Fortunately, he understood that his real body wasn’t here. Instead, it was merely a manifestation of his soul. Therefore, despite being nervous, he wasn’t afraid. As such, the Flood Dragon on the right had a good impression of him.
“I’m not sure if he will live long, though,” the Flood Dragon on the left said. Its voice was tinged with mockery and disdain.
Its body shrunk and returned to the place where it was supposed to be.
Following that, the two Flood Dragons squirmed and coiled around.
When they formed into concentric circles, a click that sounded like a door was unlocked was heard.
“Go in. However, there’s one thing you have to keep in mind, brat. You can only get the things in the Hall of Battle Points for your own use. Also, you must not tell anyone else anything about the Hall of Battle Points!”
Lu Ye cupped his fists. “I’ll keep that in mind.”
He finally understood why there were no records of the Hall of Battle Points at all.
There were many restrictions if one wanted to enter the place.
Besides the fact that everything inside could only be gotten for one’s own use, he also couldn’t reveal any information about it to anyone.
Therefore, even if some people had entered the Hall of Battle Points before, others wouldn’t know.
Moreover, judging from what the Flood Dragon on the left had said, it wasn’t easy to have a right to enter the Hall of Battle Points. Having a large number of battle points wasn’t enough.
That was because the Flood Dragon indicated that it had been a long time since someone came.
Perhaps it had been ten years or even 30 years. Lu Ye was the first to come after such a long time.
While he was in his thoughts, the door slowly opened, after which he stepped into it.
A spacious room came into his sight. He had no idea what the walls were made of, but they seemed solid.
He was certain that even if the real bodies of Divine Ocean Realm Masters were here, they couldn’t damage anything here regardless of how hard they tried.
Unlike the Vault of Providence, there were no racks that displayed products in the Hall of Battle Points. Only dark stone platforms had been erected. Lu Ye estimated that there were about 800 to 1,000 such stone platforms.
Every stone platform had something on it.
Lu Ye approached the one nearest to him. He could see that the stone platform was covered in a light screen, in which there was a Golden Amulet.
However, Golden Amulets could be traded for using battle points in the Vault of Providence, so it seemed unnecessary for the Hall of Battle Points to have such items as well.
Nonetheless, Lu Ye’s attention wasn’t attracted to the Golden Amulet. Instead, it was the light screen, for it was a Defensive Ward. Despite its small size, it was robust.
Although Lu Ye was well-versed in the Way of Wards, and he could easily build a Defensive Ward, he couldn’t possibly create such a petite one.
It wasn’t necessarily easier to build a smaller Ward.
It was indeed the case within a certain range, but beyond that, the difficulty would increase sharply.
The Defensive Ward before Lu Ye’s eyes was beyond his capabilities to build. Therefore, his interest was piqued the moment he caught sight of it.
As a curious Ward Cultivator, he wanted to find out how such a petite Ward remained stable.
If he could figure out the secrets behind it, it would be immensely helpful for the improvement of his Way of Wards.
