Seizing Destiny From Heavens Hands - Chapter 529: Demon-Suppressing Thunder Stone and Molten Gold Mud

Ye Yan was indeed blessed with extraordinary fortune.

But no matter how great his fortune, he still needed enough strength to protect himself.

Now that Ye Yan had grown stronger, Shen Mo was naturally pleased.

“You’ve discovered the exact locations of quite a few demon clan altars during this time. That’s a huge contribution. Many of the Demon Suppression Guards at the outpost have been praising you,” Shen Mo said with a smile.

Ye Yan felt a sense of pride upon hearing this.

Over the years, it was he who had led the Demon Suppression Guards to find those demon altars.

It could be said that he played a part in the destruction of the Undying Demon Emperor’s severed limbs.

The process of locating the altars had always been strange.

Sometimes, they would stumble upon a group of true demons transporting lesser demons, and by following them, they easily found the altars.

Other times, they were being hunted by powerful demons and accidentally fell into underground caves. After wandering left and right, they somehow ended up right at a demon altar.

Everything went smoothly, without much trouble.

Clearly, his astonishing fortune had once again come into play.

With such impressive merit, even Shen Mo was likely surprised.

At this thought, Ye Yan couldn’t help but puff out his chest and lift his chin, feeling deeply honored.

But after a moment, he sensed something was off.

Why should he feel honored just because he had earned Shen Mo’s appreciation?

That didn’t make sense.

Was it merely because Shen Mo was a cultivator at the Dharma Manifestation Realm, or because of his many war achievements?

He himself was exceptionally gifted, blessed with heaven-defying fortune—why should he be overshadowed by someone like Shen Mo?

With that thought, Ye Yan immediately threw away the feeling of being honored.

He didn’t need to feel honored by anyone’s recognition.

He was destined to surpass them all!

Every last one of them, including Shen Mo, would eventually become nothing more than stepping stones for him!

Shen Mo noticed the change in Ye Yan’s expression and smiled faintly.

Without saying much, he casually asked, “Where’s the item Sister Xuan asked you to bring?”

Ye Yan nodded and waved his hand.

Two boxes appeared in his palm.

They were completely different in appearance.

One was pure black and incredibly heavy.

The other looked like flawless white jade.

Ye Yan explained, “The black box contains Molten Gold Mud. This treasure can dissolve anything and must be stored in a container that has absolutely no metal.”

“After careful consideration, General Zhu personally crafted this box from millennium-old Cold Yin Wood to store the Molten Gold Mud.”

As he spoke, he opened the black wooden box, revealing a thick, golden-yellow substance inside.

This was the Molten Gold Mud, a top-grade Heaven-tier treasure.

Then, Ye Yan opened the other box, which contained only a fist-sized, ordinary-looking black stone.

“This contains the Demon-Suppressing Thunder Stone. Over countless years, it has absorbed divine thunder aura and now holds a suppressive effect on demons.”

“General Zhu said that if we had enough Demon-Suppressing Thunder Stones, we could bury the number one Sky Demon, An Cang, alive.”

“Unfortunately, this item is incredibly rare. So far, General Zhu has only found this one piece.”

Ye Yan continued, “The Demon-Suppressing Thunder Stone constantly releases energy, so it must be stored in a jade box.”

“This box is made from Egret Jade, specially chosen by General Zhu. After being infused with the aura of white egrets, it can completely seal in the Thunder Stone’s energy and prevent leakage.”

Shen Mo nodded in satisfaction.

He had only casually mentioned to Zhu Xuanji that he needed these treasures for alchemy.

He hadn’t expected her to actually send them over.

Moreover, Zhu Xuanji had been extremely thoughtful.

Both the Molten Gold Mud and the Demon-Suppressing Thunder Stone were rare and invaluable.

Even the containers used to store them were top-grade Earth-tier treasures.

Yet Zhu Xuanji spared no expense and had her most trusted subordinate deliver them personally.

It was clear she highly valued her friendship with Shen Mo.

“Go back and tell Sister Xuan, thank her for the treasures,” Shen Mo said with a faint smile.

“Understood.”

Ye Yan left without looking back, unwilling to stay even a moment longer.
