Chapter 1468: Distributing Celestial Mirror Sand

Sixty grains of Celestial Mirror Sand fell like stars, floating above the East Divine Continent's platform. The sand had a mysterious charm to it.

Bang!

At this moment, the Duke Bergfrieds of the Dukes who were present uncontrollably soared into the sky, devouring the pure worldly natural energy.

There was a burning desire in everyone's eyes to take the sand.

Li Luo was similarly focused on the Celestial Mirror Sand. Although it was called sand, they were more like mysterious crystals, each one the size of a baby's fist. Ancient runic marks were carved onto the crystals, and they radiated the aura of source origin, attracting worldly natural energy. Li Luo lightly touched his forehead, and the two Ten-Pillar Golden Duke Bergfrieds in his body also roared in desire for the Celestial Mirror Sand.

"So this is what Celestial Mirror Sand looks like." Li Luo's gaze flickered. He could sense an extremely weak but inexplicably awe-inspiring aura contained within. It was something that far surpa.s.sed even the aura of a Triple Crowned King.

Who could have created it other than a legendary Heavenly Emperor?

"As expected, the Celestial Mirror Sand's source should be the remains of the Heavenly Emperor in the core of the Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da," Li Luo murmured to himself. Heavenly Emperor existences were truly incredible. Even a corpse was capable of blessing numerous generations of descendents. "It looks like taking first place has given us great benefits, since we have managed to obtain sixty grains."

Amidst the heated gazes, the sixty grains slowly descended, though their brilliance soon became a little restrained.

Guo Jiufeng smiled. "Everyone, the Celestial Mirror Sand has arrived, so it's time to distribute it according to everyone's contributions."

Everyone was excited. This was the moment they had all been waiting for. After all, hadn't they worked hard precisely for this moment?

That said, they would have to discuss how the sand would be divided.

Li Luo himself did not partic.i.p.ate in this, instead letting Mentor Chi Chan represent them.

After a period of time, Chi Chan returned with the results.

"The Astral Sage College will be allocated eighteen grains of Celestial Mirror Sand. The Enlightened Sage College will receive five and the Sacredspring Sage College will receive four. The remaining two main seats will each get three grains. The final twenty-seven grains will then be distributed amongst the other sage colleges. What do you think?" Chi Chan asked Li Luo.

Mi Er and Cao Sheng were full of joy. In the entire history of the Astral Sage College, they had never received such a large amount of Celestial Mirror Sand.

However, they understood that Li Luo's contribution had been immense. He had single-handedly hoisted the East Divine Continent up the ranks. As a result, the amount that they had been allocated was more than the combined amounts of the other four main seats.

"We were given that many? In that case, won't some colleges not even receive a single grain?" Li Luo asked with a hint of embarra.s.sment.

There were thirty other sage colleges in addition to the five main seats, and they had contributed to the overall result as well. Chi Chan, however, felt that this result was fine.

"We've always distributed based on contributions. It is a little unrealistic for every sage college to receive a single grain of Celestial Mirror Sand. Do you know what the result of the last Celestial Mirror PaG.o.da trial was? Each grain had to be split between five sage colleges."

"Five sage colleges to a single grain? Isn't that a little too pitiful?" Li Luo was shocked. However, after thinking about it, this made sense. The entire East Divine Continent had only ended up with around ten grains of Celestial Mirror Sand the last time around, so perhaps some of the main seat holders had to dilute the sand to make sure others received a split... This time, however, the majority of the sage colleges would receive a full grain! This was a tremendous improvement.

Li Luo glanced at the other squads and realized that they were all celebrating. They clearly didn't feel dissatisfied with this result.

Meanwhile, Guo Jiufeng, w.a.n.g Xu, and the rest were looking at Li Luo for his reaction. "Mentor Li Luo, if you aren’t happy with this, we can discuss further," they said apologetically. ṙ??ȫ?Ë?

The squads that weren't part of the main seats even looked a little ashamed. They understood that Li Luo was the one who had gotten them this far, and if he truly wasn't satisfied, they would be more than happy to discuss further.

In the end, Li Luo merely smiled and said, "I have no opinions."

The rest erupted into cheers and clasped their hands in thanks.

Chi Chan smiled and waved her hand. Eighteen grains of Celestial Mirror Sand descended before Li Luo.

"Why don't you hold on to these for now? If you need them for something, you can go ahead and use them," she said.

Li Luo hesitated before replying, "I might partic.i.p.ate in the Sand Seizing Battles."

The Sand Seizing Battles were extremely b.l.o.o.d.y and the winner would take everything. Thus, most outer divine continent sage colleges did not dare to partic.i.p.ate. If Li Luo wanted to get his hands on enough Celestial Mirror Sand to make a perfect breakthrough, he had no choice but to take that path.

However, the eighteen grains of Celestial Mirror Sand belonged to the entire squad. Although his contribution was the greatest and he had the biggest say, he could not disregard the others.

"I have no opinion." Lu Qing'er was the first to answer, her voice like a clear spring hitting stone, absolutely refres.h.i.+ng to hear.

Li Hongyou then said, "I feel the same."

Mi Er and Cao Sheng glanced at each other. "Well, since we relied on you to obtain the Celestial Mirror Sand, you can do what you want. At worst, we'll just return empty-handed. Furthermore..." The two gave a hearty laugh. "What if you win? Jiang Qing'e will be on your side, and who would dare underestimate you demonic geniuses?"

Li Luo didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. It looked like they had already guessed that Jiang Qing'e would join him for the Sand Seizing Battle, and she gave them a lot of confidence.

Chi Chan smiled. "Then I hope Mentor Li Luo will bring us greater riches."

This response moved Li Luo. The Celestial Mirror Sand was very important to Chi Chan, Mi Er, and Cao Sheng. It was hard to obtain cultivation resources, and yet they were willing to let him wager it. Their trust felt like a warm current flowing through his heart.

"Haha, I promise I won’t let you down," Li Luo said with a laugh. Then he waved his sleeve, collecting all eighteen grains of Celestial Mirror Sand into his pocket sphere.

That said, this wasn't enough.

A perfect breakthrough required forty grains! He then glanced at the other squads from the East Divine Continent, who were now reveling after having received a good amount of Celestial Mirror Sand.

If he could con them of their Celestial Mirror Sand... No, that didn't sound right! That was a long-term investment opportunity! The difficulty would be immense. The people from the Astral Sage College had undue trust in him, but the others didn’t necessarily see him the same way.

Furthermore, the time wasn't right.

He had to wait.

He would have to wait for the opportunity to make his move, and Jiang Qing'e would provide that.

"We will now rest for a while and wait for the other two groups to conclude their trials."

Li Luo was sitting cross-legged as he looked at the ancient colleges’ area. Now that the battles between the outer divine continent colleges had concluded, theirs would start.

As time pa.s.sed, everyone's attention was focused on the battles.

Round after round of explosive and frenetic battles played out, causing the sage colleges from the outer divine continent to burst out into surprised cheers. Clearly, the inner divine continents were much stronger than the outer divine continents. Li Luo was attentively watching when his expression suddenly changed.

"Oh?" At this point, he turned towards the pocket sphere on his wrist. He could sense something emitting strange fluctuations within.

When he looked inside, he found the source.

It was... the ancient mottled bronze lamp he had obtained in the Spiritual Resonance Cave. A look of deep surprise surfaced within his eyes.

And its previous owner was the mysterious Lantern Bearer!

If he remembered correctly… that person was one of the Void Resonance Sect's Six Sons, w.a.n.g Taixi?
