While Wang Teng and Tong En were in the midst of their conversation, a notification rang through the estate, indicating that someone else had arrived.
Zhulong Shuang!
Surprisingly, the person who came to find him was Zhulong Shuang.
Wang Teng was surprised. He didn't expect Zhulong Shuang to come.
"What is it?" Tong En couldn't help but ask when she saw his strange expression.
"The Solar Dragon Race," Wang Teng replied.
"Why is the Solar Dragon Race here?" Tong En asked in surprise.
"Same reason as you," Wang Teng stood up, saying, "I'll go out to greet her."
After some time, Wang Teng brought Zhulong Shuang in.
Seeing Tong En in the room, Zhulong Shuang couldn't help but show a hint of surprise and said, "It seems someone is faster than me."
"Please have a seat," Wang Teng said after inviting her to sit down. Then he asked, "What brings you here? Anything you need from me?"
"I'm here to congratulate you on becoming a councilor," Zhulong Shuang casually remarked. "You're really astonishing. It's been just a short while, and you're already a councilor. Even I have to rush over to flatter you."
Wang Teng was speechless.
Zhulong Shuang took out a space ring and placed it on the table. "This is the Solar Dragon Stone unique to our Solar Dragon Race. It is an excellent material for refining fire-element weapons, and it's hard for outsiders to obtain. I brought some specially for you."
"Solar Dragon Stone!" Round Ball exclaimed in surprise.
"What's the matter? Is the Solar Dragon Stone rare?" Wang Teng asked in his heart.
"It is rumored that on the planet where the Solar Dragon Race resides, there are extensive Solar Dragon Stone mines. The formation of these Solar Dragon Stone mines is extremely unique, requiring a large amount of Solar Dragon Flame from the Earth's veins. Only after millions of years of evolution can they possibly condense into form," Round Ball explained. "Once formed, Solar Dragon Stones become an excellent material for forging weapons. It can be used to craft weapons of the heaven stage and above. If there is enough, it can even be used to create a very special spacecraft. This kind of spacecraft is enveloped in flames, not only possessing incredible attacking power but also terrifying defensive capabilities."
"Huh! Are you talking about the Fusion Fire Spacecraft?" Wang Teng asked in surprise.
He had heard of this type of spacecraft, which was available for sale in the virtual universe. However, its exorbitant price was jaw-dropping, with the cost being at least ten times that of ordinary spacecraft of the same level.
Of course, this type of spacecraft was extremely rare and highly sought after by many nobles or the offspring of major powers as a luxurious collectible.
What is rare is dear!
The Fusion Fire Spaceship was such a luxury item.
Nobles like Di Qi, who enjoyed collecting spacecraft, would likely go bankrupt if they saw one.
"Yes, it's the Fusion Fire Spacecraft," Round Ball nodded.
"To construct a spacecraft, the required materials are at least in the millions of tons, and Zhulong Shuang can't possibly provide me with so many Solar Dragon Stones," Wang Teng said.
"That's true," Round Ball said regretfully.
"Solar Dragon Stones!" Tong En was surprised too. She had heard of the reputation of Solar Dragon Stone, and the other party's generosity was remarkable.
Phew!
Suddenly, Tong En felt somewhat fortunate. The gift her sister had asked her to bring was not inferior in the slightest, and she even believed that Wang Teng would prefer it.
Zhulong Shuang glanced at Tong En triumphantly and smiled at Wang Teng. "Aren't you going to open it?"
"It's embarrassing. You're all too polite," Wang Teng said, but he had already picked up the space ring and explored it with his spiritual power.
Zhulong Shuang: …
Tong En: …
Suddenly, a pile of peculiar dark red stones appeared in Wang Teng's field of vision. He could sense that these stones were intricately engraved with mysterious patterns, resembling tiny dragons or, more accurately, Solar Dragons. Yes, they were Solar Dragon Stones.
At the same time, a searing heat emanated from the stones. Even within the space ring, Wang Teng could vividly feel it.
"Is this the Solar Dragon Stone?" Wang Teng marveled.
"Wang Teng! Wang Teng! How much is there?" Round Ball asked eagerly. As a blacksmith, it naturally paid close attention to such special materials.
If there were enough materials, he might be able to use them to upgrade the Flaming River spacecraft.
"It looks like there's probably tens of thousands of tons," Wang Teng said in astonishment.
"Wow, there are tens of thousands of tons! That's great, enough for me to upgrade the Flaming River spacecraft," Round Ball exclaimed with joy.
"Senior Zhulong Shuang, you're too generous. You even gave me tens of thousands of tons of Solar Dragon Stones," Wang Teng said to Zhulong Shuang.
"It's nothing. These Solar Dragon Stones are only of hundred-thousand-year quality, at most suitable for refining heaven-stage weapons. I suppose that heaven-stage weapons might not catch your eye, so I had to prepare a little more. They can be used for spacecraft upgrades," Zhulong Shuang said with a smile.
"Thank you," Wang Teng said.
"As long as you like it." Zhulong Shuang heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. Gift-giving was an art, and if the gift didn't touch the recipient's heart, it might as well not have been given.
"Wang Teng, aren't you going to see the gift my sister gave you?" Tong En said with a faint smile.
"Your sister?" Zhulong Shuang couldn't help but look at Tong En in surprise. This little girl looked somewhat familiar, but she couldn't recall where she had seen her.
"My sister's name is Tong Ya," Tong En said casually, lifting her chin.
In Wang Teng's eyes, she seemed a bit proud.
He looked at the two women with a strange expression. Were these two women having a duel?
"Tong Ya!" A flash of white light suddenly crossed Zhulong Shuang's mind. She finally remembered. No wonder she always felt like she had seen her somewhere before. It was Tong Ya, the one on the universe goddess rank.
At the same time, her expression became somewhat serious. Even someone on the universe goddess rank came to congratulate Wang Teng. What kind of charm did this guy possess?
She valued Wang Teng's potential because she had some contact with him and knew that he was not simple. But Tong Ya?
The other was an existence on the universe goddess rank, someone she might not even meet once in a lifetime. How did she know about Wang Teng?
"Wang Teng, open it quickly." Seeing Zhulong Shuang's surprised expression, Tong En knew that her goal was achieved. She smiled slightly and urged Wang Teng.
Zhulong Shuang's mind sank instantly. She looked at the jade box on the table with a slightly changed expression. She didn't feel any special fluctuations. What could be inside?
Why was this little girl so confident?
Judging by the other's appearance, it seemed as if she believed that her gift would surpass hers.
Wang Teng also became interested and opened the jade box. His eyebrows raised slightly, "What is this?"
Within the jade box lay a simple scroll, seemingly unremarkable, yet the lack of distinct features made it all the more intriguing.
Zhulong Shuang looked at the scroll inside the jade box, and her brows furrowed slightly.
Wang Teng picked up the scroll and examined it closely. He discovered that there seemed to be a sealing force on it. There were tiny and mysterious runes engraved on the surface, forming a kind of restrictive power that required spiritual power to open.
This piqued his curiosity even more!
A scroll sealed with such power served not only to protect it from decay but also to prevent others from casually viewing its contents.
This scroll seemed to be no ordinary item.
However, it posed no challenge to Wang Teng. After all, he was a rune grandmaster.
With a slight concentration of his gaze, spiritual power surged, coming into contact with the runes as he sought the "switch" among them!
In no time, the runes on the surface of the scroll moved appreciate tadpoles, autonomously separating from the connection points on the scroll.
The scroll could now be opened.
"Rune master!"
Zhulong Shuang gazed at Wang Teng, a hint of astonishment in her expression. "You're really a rune master. They said you deciphered the runes of the Spiritual Hollow Mountain. At first, I didn't quite believe it, but now I'm thoroughly convinced."
"My sister stated you could open it, and indeed you can," Tong En added, equally surprised.
"It's nothing," Wang Teng smiled and replied.
Both women rolled their eyes simultaneously at his nonchalant response.
Wang Teng paid no attention to them, took a deep breath, and with curiosity, opened the scroll. As his gaze swept over its contents, his eyes suddenly burst with brilliance. He abruptly closed the scroll and gazed at Tong En in astonishment.
Zhulong Shuang's ominous premonition intensified. Judging by Wang Teng's expression, this scroll seemed to be extraordinary.
"How is it?" Tong En stated with a faint smile, secretly delighted. You wanted to show off, and now you're shocked, aren't you?
"This is a semi-alchemy saint's alchemical manual!" Wang Teng stated in a low voice.
"What!" Zhulong Shuang's expression changed slightly. She gazed at Tong En in astonishment.
A semi-alchemy saint's alchemical manual!
Tong Ya's generosity was unexpectedly grand, and it happened to align with Wang Teng's preferences. By now, everyone knew he was a grandmaster alchemist.
More importantly, such items were rare and hard to come by. Typically, very few alchemy saints would pass on their semi-
alchemy saint's alchemical manual. After all, it was their most crucial possession. How could they casually show it to others? Even their disciples might not be able to get it.
For Wang Teng, this item was crucial.
It could save him from many detours and possibly allow him to become a true alchemy saint many years later.
She had to admit that the Solar Dragon Stones she had sent were far less valuable compared to this semi-alchemy saint's alchemical manual.
"Yes!" Tong En glanced at Zhulong Shuang, a slight curve forming at the corner of her mouth. She nodded, saying, "This is a semi-alchemy saint's alchemical manual that my sister accidentally obtained. The individual later smoothly advanced to become an alchemy saint. So, for you, this manual holds significant reference value."
"A manual of a semi-alchemy saint left before his promotion to alchemy saint." Brilliance flickered in Wang Teng's eyes as he nodded and said, "I graciously accept this gift. Please convey my thanks to your sister. In the future, whenever you need to refine pills, feel free to come find me."
He made a commitment. The gift from the other party was too significant, and he needed to reciprocate appropriately.
"Hehe, I've been waiting for this moment," Tong En chuckled, "But we're friends, and I'm also a member of the Constellation Society. There's no need to be so formal."
"I'm the one who's thinking too much." Wang Teng smiled. Tong Ya was truly thoughtful to give him such a gift.
