Divine King of Honour

Chapter 897 Energy Metal



"Big brother, it seems you still don't know the real secret of the Denor Star System." Wu Gang looked at Xu Nian with a blank expression and said with a smile.

The other two also showed smiles on their faces.

Clearly, seeing Xu Nian's bewildered look made them feel happy.

It was a bit of balance for being bullied by Xu Nian.

"Big brother, you probably don't know that the most precious thing in the Denor Star System is the energy metals. Within this system exists a large number of metal veins, among them are ordinary metals, but also energy metals containing enormous energy." The iron tower man said with a smile.

His name is Tie Chui, although the name is simple, it suits his image.

As for the man restrained by Xu Nian, he is called Zhao An.

"Energy metals? What are they?" Xu Nian continued to ask.

Wu Gang thought for a while and explained, "Big brother, you should know the vastness of the universe, with all sorts of wonders. This energy metal is a unique product of the Denor Star System; like spirit stones, they contain powerful energy. However, this type of energy is somewhat special. It cannot increase the True Essence within but can strengthen human flesh and bones."

"Strengthen human flesh and bones? Wouldn't that be very beneficial for body cultivation practitioners?" Xu Nian asked in surprise.

"Indeed, strengthening human flesh and bones is very beneficial for body cultivation powerhouses, but it also greatly benefits spirit cultivators. After all, the physical body is always the foundation of a cultivator, so both types of powerhouses fiercely compete for energy metals," Wu Gang said.

Xu Nian nodded.

Although body cultivation powerhouses cultivate the physical body, constantly enhancing the cells to store more Gang Qi,

spirit cultivation powerhouses also need to strengthen their physical bodies.

Only with a strong enough body can they better utilize the True Essence within.

Thus, whether body cultivation or spirit cultivation, physical strength is equally important.

Some spirit cultivators mistakenly prioritize True Essence over the strength of the physical body.

"Then what is this Rock Iron Order?" Xu Nian continued to ask.

He understood energy metals, but what connection does the Rock Iron Order have with energy metals?

"Big brother, you might not know, there are many veins in the Denor Star System. Nowadays, most of the discovered veins have been occupied. To prevent random mining, the Denor Empire has issued mining laws, allowing only those with the appropriate mining tokens to mine the veins. The Rock Iron Order is a permit to mine Rock Iron veins. Unauthorized mining results in severe consequences enforced by the empire, and nobody dares to defy it," Wu Gang said.

"I see, but what is this Denor Empire you mentioned?" Xu Nian continued to ask.

The three exchanged looks, amazed that the big brother before them didn't even know about the Denor Empire.

"Big brother, the Denor Empire is the administrator of the Denor Star System. They're the only entity among the Nine Great Star Regions that manages the star domain in the form of an empire. But the Denor Emperor advocates violence and slaughter, so their laws permit free looting by cultivators, making the Denor Star System the most chaotic among the nine systems," Tie Chui said.

Xu Nian realized.

No wonder the Denor Star System is so ruthless.

Because the laws here permit slaughter, it indirectly encourages killing.

Although other star systems don't strictly regulate killing, most planetary cities still forbid private fighting.

This naturally leads to far fewer killings.

"How many types of energy metals are there?" Xu Nian asked.

Since Wu Gang and the others were able to acquire the Rock Iron Order, the Rock Iron vein shouldn't be very high.

"There are five types: Rock Iron, Xuan Gold, Red Gold, Blue Gold, and Black Gold. Among them, Black Gold contains the highest and most terrifying energy, but only three tokens for mining Black Gold veins exist, one held by the empire, the others by powerful forces," Wu Gang said.

"Since the empire issued the mining tokens, one thousand Rock Iron Orders have been released, three thousand Xuan Gold Tokens, one thousand Red Gold Commands, one hundred Blue Gold Tokens, and only three Black Gold Orders," Zhao An supplemented.

Xu Nian nodded.

He almost grasped the situation.

Across the star domain, cultivators likely number in the billions, even trillions, yet there are only ten thousand Rock Iron Orders; the other tokens are even rarer. To acquire large amounts of energy metals, one must obtain a mining token, otherwise, the only option is to seize them.

"No wonder the Denor Star System's people are called plunderers, they are plundering energy metals," Xu Nian said with a smile.

He seemed to find it somewhat amusing.

"Big brother, this is Rock Iron Energy Metal, you can feel it!" Wu Gang produced a fist-sized piece of energy metal and handed it to Xu Nian.

Xu Nian looked at the irregular energy metal and clearly felt a unique energy within.

"Buzz!"

Xu Nian directly operated the Divine Demon Refining Body Technique.

He then distinctly felt a peculiar energy penetrate his body along his arm.

As this energy entered, his cells seemed to be starving, frantically devouring the energy.

As they consumed it, Xu Nian's physical body received a slight enhancement.

Although due to the energy being minimal, the enhancement was very subtle.

If the energy were vast, his physical strength could break through the Peak of Wanxiang Realm and reach the Heavenly Gang Realm.

"Truly good stuff, this pure energy enhancing physical strength is nearly ten times better than Spiritual Energy," Xu Nian muttered excitedly to himself.

He felt the energy within the energy metal was incredibly pure, perfectly suited for physical cultivation.

"Big brother, you felt it too, right? This energy metal's energy is incredibly strong. Once the energy from Rock Iron Energy Metal is absorbed to saturation, just the physical strength can compete with Harmonization Peak powerhouses," Wu Gang said.

Xu Nian showed a surprised expression.

Relying solely on physical strength to compete with Harmonization Peak powerhouses would require extremely powerful physical energy.

Currently, his physical strength could at most compete with Zifu powerhouses.

It's important to understand it's physical strength, not body cultivation strength.

Pure physical strength doesn't include Gang Qi.

"Since you have the mining tokens, why not mine more Rock Iron Energy Metals?" Xu Nian asked them.

The three heard this and showed bitter expressions.

"Big brother, what you don't know is our combined strength doesn't allow us to keep the mined energy metals, even with the tokens. As soon as we appear, we face pursuit by powerhouses with no chance to mine," Zhao An said helplessly.

Xu Nian nodded.

It seemed like Wu Gang and the others acquired the Rock Iron Order by coincidence.

They had the Rock Iron Order but not the capability to mine.

However, that was before he arrived; everything is different now.

"You should know where Rock Iron is, right?" Xu Nian asked with a smile.

"We know, we know of three places that haven't been mined yet, but those places are guarded by people without mining tokens. If we appear, we'll certainly be besieged," Wu Gang quickly replied.

Upon hearing this, Xu Nian's eyes lit up.

"Let's go, let's head to the nearest vein and meet them now," Xu Nian said with a smile.

The three hesitated for a moment, ultimately nodding firmly.
