X-Dragon Era

Carrying a leather pouch containing the Dragon Creation Stone, Xin Yun and Yi Luo Xiang ran all the way back to the inn. Despite his memories from a past life, Xin Yun truly hadn't expected to complete all the transactions.

The Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone was one thing, but the item he traded for afterward was truly incredible.

It wasn't just an item that surpassed diamond in terms of King-Level Equipment, but more importantly, it would be needed to obtain the most powerful weapon known to Xin Yun in the near future, and that weapon could only be acquired with the use of this battle-axe combined with an Essence Gold shovel purchased in Tower Mountain Megacity.

Of course, although he knew where that object was and how to get it, Xin Yun's strength was too weak to claim it just yet. However, getting his hands on it first was always a good thing, as it at least ruled out the possibility of others obtaining it.

Slamming the door shut behind them, Xin Yun and Yi Luo Xiang turned to each other and burst into laughter simultaneously, their gains for the day were simply too insane. Not just for Xin Yun, Yi Luo Xiang felt the same, having accomplished a great feat she herself hadn't expected.

After laughing for a while, the two collapsed onto the bed exhausted. Though their bodies were tired, their spirits were surprisingly good, especially the mental satisfaction that made them completely ignore their physical fatigue.

Eventually, it was Yi Luo Xiang who couldn't resist any longer. Her eyes shining, she looked at Xin Yun and said, "What exactly is the treasure you traded for at the end? Don't tell me you were really gambling, that's not like you!"

Smiling and nodding, Xin Yun casually pulled over the leather pouch and gently opened it, and suddenly... an ancient, time-worn, and five-colored glowing single-handed battle axe appeared before them.

Upon closer inspection, the axe's handle wasn't long, the entire length no more than one meter, with a broad blade and a thick body. The axe's hammer had the shape of a bell, and both the handle and the blade were covered in ancient and weathered patterns, immediately signaling its antiquity.

Gazing at this ancient single-handed battle axe, Yi Luo Xiang could tell it was a treasure, a real treasure, even without any discerning abilities.

Seeing the surprise and confusion on Yi Luo Xiang's face, Xin Yun explained: "This battle axe is forged from five types of metal, namely gold, silver, copper, iron, and tin."

"Oh?" Yi Luo Xiang frowned upon hearing this. Gold is the most valuable of these metals, and the rest are quite common. There was nothing surprising about this.

Seeing Yi Luo Xiang frown, Xin Yun laughed and said, "You might not be aware, but in this world, forging two different metals together is already no easy feat. The technique of fusing the five major metals into a single weapon has never appeared before."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang's face showed shock and puzzlement: "If such a technique has never existed, then where does this axe come from? Isn't there a contradiction here?"

Smiling at Yi Luo Xiang, Xin Yun shook his head: "A contradiction? No... not at all. There are many techniques that humanity hasn't mastered, but that doesn't mean they do not exist."

Hearing this, Yi Luo Xiang first looked puzzled, then had a realization and said, "You mean to say... this axe might be! It might be..."

Seeing Yi Luo Xiang's incredulous look, Xin Yun nodded and said, "That's right. Based on my judgment, this axe must be naturally formed by heaven and earth. Although it's hard for people to believe, in reality, there is no force that could cause the slightest damage to this axe.

A forging technique that could merge these five metals and still retain such strength simply won't exist, not now, and not in a million years."

"Good heavens! You mean to say, this... this is actually a Divine Artifact?" Yi Luo Xiang exclaimed. If Xin Yun had really traded for a Divine Artifact, then the loss in this competition would be far too great.

Faced with Yi Luo Xiang's question, Xin Yun shook his head gently: "A Divine Artifact? No... It only has the potential to become a Divine Artifact. In reality, this axe as it is now is at most unbreakable. Perhaps in close combat, it could strike a couple of blows, but don't forget, this world doesn't favor close quarters combat."

Hearing Xin Yun's words, Yi Luo Xiang frowned immediately. Yes... in this world, people fight from atop dragons, from a great distance, and this axe is not a Boomerang Axe or a Gliding Axe; it's relatively cumbersome. Unless you're up close, it's impossible to harm your opponent with it.

```

Moreover, the most important thing is that although the axe is very hard, that's about all there is to it. However... just by virtue of this point alone, it has already surpassed the diamond grade and reached the King Level, a treasure indeed. All weapons that can withstand the energy of a King-Level master are of King Level.

But this axe is a bit too strange. Dragon battles are like airplane fights — what use would you have for a hand axe in close combat? Although it is a King-Level treasure, it's probably the least useful one of them all.

Of course, even though the axe isn't that impressive, King Level is still King Level. Even the worst King-Level weapon is worth more than ten times that of the highest diamond grade. A truly powerful King-Level weapon can be worth millions of times more than one of the diamond grade.

With a deep sigh, Yi Luo Xiang knew that she had lost this time. Although her loss wasn't total, there was no excuse for it, no room for maneuver.

"However!" Just as she was silently disappointed, Yi Luo Xiang's eyes suddenly lit up. The treasure she traded for might not be as valuable as Xin Yun's, but it was still excellent in its own right, and she believed Xin Yun would definitely be satisfied with it.

Yi Luo Xiang dragged over the small chest and gently placed it in front of Xin Yun, saying expectantly, "Look... this is my final gain. I chose it especially for you from nearly a hundred thousand treasures, and I hope you'll like it."

Chosen from a hundred thousand treasures? That's a lot of mental exertion: comparing, pondering, judging — the amount of thought involved is really too much.

Looking at the not-too-large chest before him, Xin Yun was silently guessing what could be in it. Judging from its size, the chest was only forty centimeters long, twenty centimeters wide, and about ten centimeters thick — what could it be?

After scrutinizing the chest for a good while, Xin Yun shook his head — he wouldn't be able to guess just by looking... Xin Yun reached out with both hands and gently opened the lid of the chest, and suddenly... a cold burst of light radiated from within.

"Hiss..." Seeing the treasure in the chest, Xin Yun couldn't help but take in a sharp breath. How could it be this! This set... Yi Luo Xiang had actually managed to trade for it, it's unbelievable!

In the last cycle, the top three trades were the Ninth Grade Dragon Creation Stone in the first place, and the ten-piece set of fully triggered crystal-grade suits in second — which Xin Yun had already monopolized, leaving no chance for others. And the third was this set of Nine-Linked Gliding Axes!

Ordinary people might not understand what a Gliding Axe is. In fact... a Gliding Axe is also called a Boomerang Axe, or simply a Flying Axe. Its handle is short, and its body thin, but very sharp. It's an excellent treasure for long-range attacks and also the most powerful in the flying class of equipment sets.

The Gliding Axe set consists of seven axes, plus a leather case to hold the axes and gloves to retrieve them, making it a nine-piece set. The reason it ranks third is because all nine pieces can trigger each other!

Some people might say that such a powerful set could compete with a ten-piece fully triggered set of equipment, but the reality is quite different. There's a significant disparity between the two.

p>You should know that the Gliding Axe is a very popular type of divine artifact in this world, especially when dragons fly at high speeds. When thrown with momentum, its destructive power is astonishing. Once it hits, even armor can't block this blade, which is sharper than bullets.

Dragons can easily exceed the speed of sound. Just imagine... When two dragons fly towards each other at supersonic speeds, and one throws a Gliding Axe, how fast and powerful would the axe be!

The Gliding Axe is specifically designed for flying, its shape more suited for airborne spinning attacks and not really for close-quarter combat. The point of force was not designed for close fighting at all.

However, as long as it's not close combat, even at a distance of two meters, it can exert its greatest power. As long as there is enough strength, its power can extend for dozens of meters, or even hundreds to thousands of meters!
