Let's start by analyzing the sun

Following that resounding victory, the rewards issued by the East Li war zone could only be described as 'sunshine for all'.

Almost everyone received something!

Inside the central hall.

A lean, tall Xuan Master, clad in a black robe with silver纹 patterns, strode in.

Behind him.

Two Xuan Warriors pushed a small cart together, upon which were placed two thick, large-sized metal boxes, clearly indicating their considerable weight.

This scene immediately stirred up a noticeable commotion within the hall.

The surfaces of the two large metal boxes were adorned with浮雕 relief carvings of numerous spirit leaf patterns, forming circular rings.

These were unmistakably special containers for preserving Source Xuan Crystals.

Their construction material was an extremely rare metal, capable of effectively preventing the leakage of the extraordinary power within the Source Xuan Crystals.

Every time the war zone distributed Source Xuan Crystals, these things would be dragged out from the secret vault.

Faced with this situation.

Everyone could see that the rewards for winning the battle had been distributed.

Low murmurs arose from the crowd.

"This time the rewards have come down so quickly!"

"Indeed! Last time our war zone won a battle, it took two days for them to come down, but this time they've come down in the evening."

"Hehe! Have you forgotten that a certain Divine General serving as a Divine Arbiter highly values a certain Deputy General in this war zone?"

The Xuan Warriors were not fools; this conjecture immediately enlightened many.

"That's right! It seems we're benefiting from Deputy General Cheng's influence!"

"The battle only ended two hours ago, and the Divine Decree was already sent to the war zone; the Divine General's subordinates must have been looking out for the East Li war zone on account of Inspector Cheng."

At this moment.

The lean, tall Xuan Master stopped and gently raised his hand.

The two Xuan Warriors behind him each reached out and tapped the metal boxes.

"Pa! Pa!"

The metal boxes opened automatically.

Two full boxes of Source Xuan Crystals instantly met everyone's eyes.

Due to the sheer number of Source Xuan Crystals, a miraculous resonance occurred between them.

This caused the Xuan power contained within the Source Xuan Crystals to spontaneously condense into many tiny specks of light, swirling around the pile of Source Xuan Crystals before dissipating.

The Xuan Warriors witnessed this scene, and their breathing became rapid.

Among the crowd.

Gu Jian, the Xuan Warrior who had previously been ordered to deliver the Divine Decree to Spirit Flame Lotus Island, also watched with gleaming eyes.

No normal Xuan Warrior was not in need of Source Xuan Crystals.

Of course.

A certain newly appointed Inspector was not included.

The entire East Li war zone, from the soldiers of each legion to the General leading the war zone, had long ceased to regard him as a Xuan Warrior.

At this moment.

The lean, tall Xuan Master looked around and said quickly: "Our war zone was able to win this battle, giving the Black Scale Tribe a crushing defeat; everyone has made great contributions."

This person was clearly very skilled at speaking politely; these words made everyone beam with joy.

The lean, tall Xuan Master did not babble on and waved his finger at the metal boxes: "Those who have contributed should be rewarded! I am acting on the General's orders to distribute the rewards now."

He turned to look at a Xuan Warrior beside the cart and instructed: "Xi Jun, you will announce the list."

The Xuan Warrior called "Xi Jun" immediately took out a small booklet and read aloud: "Sun Heng, contributed to the battle with the Xuan Boat troops, rewarded with three Source Xuan Crystals."

Another Xuan Warrior then patted the metal box: "Xuan Warrior Sun, please come forward to receive the Source Xuan Crystals."

The atmosphere in the hall became even more heated.

Lowered discussions rang out again.

"This time the rewards are really generous!"

"Tsk tsk! Just participating in the battle gets you three Source Xuan Crystals; the higher-ups are really too generous."

Everyone present understood that the key to winning this battle, apart from Deputy General Cheng's control of the overall situation, mainly relied on the various Warhawk Legions.

Although the Xuan Boat troops had killed many of the stronger sea monsters, it was only the icing on the cake; even if they hadn't participated, it wouldn't have changed the outcome.

Even so, just pursuing the remnants of the enemy on the battlefield earned them three Source Xuan Crystals, which was definitely a generous reward.

Sun Heng walked forward with a smile on his face, accepted the three Source Xuan Crystals, and quickly returned to the crowd, muttering in a low voice: "Thank you, Inspector Cheng!"

These words brought knowing smiles to many faces.

Any fool could understand that this time the rewards were extraordinarily generous, and the Divine General had definitely given some extra rewards as an exception, out of consideration for Inspector Cheng.

It was only natural to say a word of thanks, remembering the source of the water they drank.

Before long.

The two large metal boxes were emptied.

Gu Jian, carrying four Source Xuan Crystals, felt his heart involuntarily stir.

This guy had recently sensed that the Soul Tempering Seal within his Sea of ​​Spirits seemed to be getting closer and closer to the three-ring form.

He stroked the cold Source Xuan Crystals, and a glimmer of red light flashed in his pupils: "Maybe after absorbing these few Source Xuan Crystals, I can break through the barrier in one fell swoop."

And as long as he advanced to a high-level Xuan Warrior, not only would his annual salary be higher, but he would also have the opportunity to take on more important positions, how could he restrain himself?

At this time.

Various inside stories spread to the central courtyard.

"It is said that the East Wind Legion was rewarded with an average of six Source Xuan Crystals per person!"

"This is really unfair. We risked our lives on the battlefield, and they stayed in the cave controlling Xuan soldiers from afar. How can they get so much more than us?"

"The East Wind Legion is the legion created by Inspector Cheng himself, and they also participated in hunting the Black Scale Tribe Sea King, how can this be compared?"

"Yes! Who told them to follow a good superior!"

The discussions in the crowd were obviously tinged with a sour taste.

Gu Jian touched the Source Xuan Crystals again, and the excitement in his heart cooled down a little.

This intermediate Xuan Warrior suddenly had an idea: "Judging from the current situation, the scale of the East Wind Legion will definitely expand. Perhaps I should seek to join the East Wind Legion."

There are no Xuan Warriors who are not smart.

What Gu Jian thought of, others naturally thought of as well.

"When the East Wind Legion recruits Xuan Warriors next time, I must occupy a spot."

"The East Wind Legion has such good treatment, and you don't have to go to the battlefield to fight and die. Who here doesn't want to enter the East Wind Legion?"

"The competition is so fierce, I'm afraid that without the strength of a high-level Xuan Warrior, you can't guarantee that you can enter the East Wind Legion 100%."

Gu Jian's eyes flickered.

High-level Xuan Warrior?

He was too lazy to listen to his colleagues' discussions and turned to leave the hall.

Gu Jian made up his mind to seize the time to cultivate and advance to a high-level Xuan Warrior as soon as possible.

At this moment.

He had completely forgotten Deputy General Cheng's warning, "Don't temper your Xuan Domain tonight."

*

Two hours later.

Gu Jian sat quietly in the cultivation room, his palms facing upwards, holding a shining Source Xuan Crystal.

There was a finger's width between his palms and the Source Xuan Crystal, which looked quite strange.

Strands of scorching flames emerged from Gu Jian's palms, constantly licking the Source Xuan Crystal.

Within this person's Sea of ​​Spirits, the Xuan Seal continued to throb, and the Xuan Domain also began to slowly expand with an extremely small amplitude.

After a few minutes.

Gu Jian's expression suddenly changed, and he spat out a wisp of fire.

The fire flashed and hit a wooden table in front of him, instantly igniting it.

Under normal circumstances.

Xuan Warriors can control Xuan power at will, and such a thing would never happen.

This undoubtedly showed one thing - the Xuan power had briefly lost control.

Within Gu Jian's Sea of ​​Spirits.

The Xuan Seal rapidly contracted and expanded, and its rhythm showed obvious disorder, no longer carrying the stable rhythm it had before.

Gu Jian secretly cried out that something was wrong, and tried his best to restrain the Xuan Seal, trying to suppress the changes in the Xuan power.

However.

He failed.

"Whoosh!"

A fierce flame suddenly burst out from his palm, swiftly spraying towards the Source Xuan Crystal, instantly blasting it away.

"Pa!"

With a soft sound.

The Source Xuan Crystal fell to the ground and shattered into three pieces.

This prismatic crystal, which originally shimmered with a strange faint light, instantly faded in color after it shattered.

This was a symbol that most of the Source Energy had been lost.

Gu Jian cried out in pain, his brows furrowing tightly.

Just now he had experienced a mental backlash, and a needle-like pain had arisen in his mind.

And after the backlash.

The Xuan Seal returned to silence, and the Xuan power was barely restrained.

From another perspective.

This was considered a self-adjustment of the soul, unloading the out-of-control Xuan power, which was not a bad thing.

However.

This also had a price.

At least within three months, it was not advisable to carry out Xuan Domain tempering again.

Otherwise, the probability of losing control would be greatly increased.

Gu Jian immediately opened his eyes, his gaze locking onto the shattered Source Xuan Crystal, and couldn't help but blurt out a curse: "What a damn bad luck!"

Only four Source Xuan Crystals were rewarded in total, and as a result, less than one-tenth of them were absorbed, and most of the Source Energy was scrapped.

Today is a big loss!

Gu Jian endured the headache, slowly got up and walked towards the shattered crystal, just about to reach out and pick up the pieces, but suddenly froze.

Because he suddenly remembered Inspector Cheng's warning.

Don't temper your Xuan Domain!

Gu Jian stared at the shattered crystal with an incredulous expression.

My God!

How did Inspector Cheng know that my Xuan Domain tempering would experience Xuan power loss of control tonight?

This Xuan Warrior originally did not believe the other party's words at all, but everything he had just experienced gave him an unprecedentedly strong shock.

Gu Jian stood there blankly for a long time before reaching out and picking up the shattered crystal.

He turned to look in the direction of Spirit Flame Lotus Island and immediately took a breath of cold air: "Could it be that Inspector Cheng also possesses the precognitive ability to foresee the future?"

This seemed to be the only explanation!
