Chapter 570: Only the Strong and Intelligent Deserved Valuable Treasures

It was dark, and all the dorms had quieted down.

Hao Ren had practiced the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Technique ten times. Then, he sensed that Zhao Jiayi and the other guys were already asleep, so he lightly jumped off his upper berth and landed on the floor. Then, he went over to open the balcony door.

After he got outside, he flew toward Fifth Heaven.

The boat that was transformed from the purple gold hairpin was incredibly fast.

At this moment, the purple gold hairpin did not have the fierce aura it showcased on the sports field when fighting with that golden shield. It was now only a flight dharma treasure that operated off nature essence.

It was also dead quiet inside Ethereal Summit on Fifth Heaven.

Once Hao Ren entered the valley, he dashed into his cave abode.

Right now, the golden shield was hurrying around in Hao Ren’s necklace.

Hao Ren threw the purple gold hairpin into the cave, and it started to glow from the ground, covering Hao Ren’s cave abode with a bright provocative purple light.

This was a terrorizing small array formation.

Hao Ren had got everything prepared before he took the golden shield out from his necklace. Once the golden shield got its freedom back, it immediately flew toward the direction of the entrance.

The small purple gold hairpin stood at the entrance, not budging an inch. When this golden shield flew over, it realized something was not right, so it immediately turned back.

Hao Ren’s cave abode was simple, and it only had one entrance. Therefore, when this golden shield flew back, it was planning to break through Hao Ren’s cave from another side and flew out of the mountains.

There was no way that Hao Ren would let it do as it wished, so he let out a metal-elemental sword energy.

Ding… The sword energy hit the surface of the golden shield and was immediately bounced off. This was a supreme spiritual treasure after all. Even if it were scared and injured by the purple gold hairpin, it was not something Hao Ren could defeat with one sword energy.

When Hao Ren shot out more than a dozen sword energies, the small array formation that Zhen Congming set up in the cave above was initiated.

Zhen Congming had set up this small array formation for Hao Ren so that the latter could train using the lightning cultivation. Now that Hao Ren had initiated the array formation, the gems that were stuck on the cave’s ceiling started to light up one by one.

Clouds started to accumulate, and a small heavenly lightning bolt shot out.

When the golden shield was about to break through the mountains, a heavenly lightning bolt shot from the clouds and hit it.

Bang!

The lightning started to fade away, but the golden shield was unscratched.

“It is truly worthy of being called a supreme spiritual treasure!” Hao Ren watched quietly in shock.

Heavenly lightning was also known as innate Tiangang; it could damage any of the five elements. However, this supreme spiritual treasure was obviously above the five elements; it was not even scared of the heavenly lightning.

If it weren’t for the purple gold hairpin, this golden shield would have probably gotten out!

Hao Ren shot out more sword energies, increasing the intensity of the array formations in the cave abode.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Three heavenly lightning bolts that were as thick as a thumb were shot down from the clouds.

Inside the cave, there were currently two targets, Hao Ren and the golden shield. The heavenly lightning would choose the strongest to target first.

Bang! The golden shield split into three smaller shields to withstand the power of the three heavenly lightning bolts.

Hao Ren had heard about supreme spiritual treasures from the Lu sisters. To become a supreme spiritual treasure, one condition was to serve a great cultivator for many years and accumulate energy for an extended period of time. That would strengthen the dharma treasure and even allow it to have some spiritual properties. However, the most important condition was that it had to follow a cultivator through a Heavenly Tribulation.

Only those that had spiritual properties and successfully went through a Heavenly Tribulation without being melted down by the heavenly lightning bolts could become the king of treasures, supreme spiritual treasures.

There were stories about powerful dharma treasures that had spiritual properties. When some of them were passed down to weaker cultivators from their stronger former masters, they broke free from the weaker cultivators ‘commands, triggered Heavenly Tribulations, and became supreme spiritual treasures themselves before flying to Eighth or Ninth Heaven!

“Still not obeying…” Hao Ren shot out more sword energies.

Pa, pa, pa, pa… Tens of thin heavenly lightning bolts were shot onto the golden shield.

There were a few heavenly lightning bolts that shot toward Hao Ren as well, but he absorbed them.

The golden shield buzzed, and it was struck down by half a meter.

It was a supreme spiritual treasure that had been through a Heavenly Tribulation, and this level of heavenly lightning bolts was incapable of giving it a destructive blow. However, heavenly lightning bolts were still powerful after all. It was still impossible for the golden shield to be totally unharmed when multiple heavenly lightning bolts struck it continuously.

Buzz… The golden shield flew fast toward Hao Ren.

Hao Ren used both hands to initiate a technique and released the 320 sword energies.

The small array formation in the cave above was used to its limit, and tens of heavenly lightning bolts were shot out simultaneously. If Xie Yujia were completely in control of her elixir furnace, then Hao Ren mastered this array formation in his cave abode.

If Hao Ren were the only thing in the cave abode, then all the lightning bolts would target him. However, the supreme spiritual treasure was stronger than him, so it acted as a shield for Hao Ren against the heavenly lightning.

All the peak Qian-level cultivators wanted powerful dharma treasures for the same reason; the powerful dharma treasures could take on some of the heavenly lightning bolts during the Heavenly Tribulation.

Zhao Kuo was overly confident and wanted to pass the Heavenly Tribulation by himself without a treasure; that was why he failed.

The golden shield wanted to attack Hao Ren but stopped halfway because it was suddenly hit with tens of heavenly lightning bolts; it almost fell to the ground and got dirty.

Buzz!

The golden shield let out a loud buzz, stopping the tens of thumb-sized heavenly lightning bolts.

Hao Ren waved both hands and was about to let out more heavenly lightning bolts. However, he hesitated for half a second and suddenly stopped.

“OK. OK. Even if I use an array formation to tame you, you won’t be convinced. Since you aren’t willing to follow me, I won’t force you.” Hao Ren pulled back his sword energies and then opened his necklace. “Come into my space and have a good rest. I won’t try to tame you now.”

Buzz! Buzz!

The golden shield was floating in Hao Ren’s cave abode, and it let out a proud golden light. It was unwilling to obey Hao Ren but was also aware of the purple gold hairpin, so it was scared to charge out.

Hao Ren took this opportunity to observe this supreme spiritual treasure carefully. He discovered that other than the shining golden light, there was nothing special about this golden shield. It didn’t even have any designs on it; it was almost a golden plate.

Circles of golden light spun around the edge of the golden shield, and the shield surface looked brand-new and unharmed even though tens of heavenly lightning bolts struck it.

Hao Ren felt that the golden shield would never obey him even if he hit it with many more heavenly lightning bolts.

Hao Ren thought it was too brutal if he harmed its spiritual property and was a waste of something great. That was why he waved his hand and said, “I won’t hurt you, but I won’t let you rampage around either.”

Buzz… The golden shield let out an even stronger golden light that was a few inches wider. It wasn’t like Little White and couldn’t understand Hao Ren’s words. Instead, it could only sense whether Hao Ren had good or bad intentions.

Supreme spiritual treasures would choose their owners; it was the instinct of the treasures.

The treasures wanted to get strong cultivators who had matching elemental attributes to be their owners; that was how they could get even more powerful.

Hao Ren reached out his left hand and watched it quietly.

Only those who were strong and intelligent deserved such valuable treasures!

The purple gold hairpin quietly stood in front of the cave entrance as if it were a door guardian. The golden shield had lost to the purple gold hairpin but not to Hao Ren.

However, the purple gold hairpin didn’t want to join Hao Ren’s mission of taming the treasure.

Bang… Bang… The golden shield let out a series of loud noises and spun slowly as if it were hesitating.

The supreme spiritual treasures could also choose a friend but not a master! They could follow cultivators but not be tamed by them!

However, during these thousands of years, the weakest cultivator that this golden shield had followed was a top-tier Nascent Soul Realm cultivator!
