Extraordinary Soldier King in the City-Chapter 668: The Grade of the Magical Treasure

The middle-aged man was still somewhat dizzy.

Although the Soul Suppressing Coffin had not caused any substantial damage to his soul just now, that sudden shock and pressure was unbearable for ordinary people.

Fortunately, as an Earth Rank powerhouse, the middle-aged man had robust physical qualities, which allowed him to recover in a short amount of time.

If it were an ordinary person, they would have had to lie in bed for at least an entire day.

"What... what just happened to me?"

The middle-aged man held his head with both hands, straightened up, and looked around, his face filled with confusion.

Having just regained consciousness, he had yet to remember many things and needed to recall a bit.

Chen Feng did not disturb him and stood quietly by his side, waiting for him to remember.

After about a minute, the middle-aged man finally recalled everything that had happened before, including the Soul Suppressing Coffin that Chen Feng had brought out!

Although he did not know what it was, he knew that it was because of the Soul Suppressing Coffin’s strike that he had momentarily fainted.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man quickly looked at Chen Feng and curiously asked, "Little Chen, what exactly is that dark coffin you threw at me just now?"

"This... please forgive me, but I cannot tell you!"

Chen Feng shook his head with an apologetic look.

It wasn’t that Chen Feng did not trust the middle-aged man.

Quite the contrary, since the middle-aged man was sent by his grandfather, Chen Feng trusted that he would never harm him.

But as the saying goes, one must always guard against others.

With treasures like the Soul Suppressing Coffin, it was best not to tell others casually, lest it arouse envy and bring fatal disaster upon oneself.

Wealth should not be flaunted, that’s the rationale.

Even towards people one trusts relatively more, some secrets are still better kept confidential.

"Haha, it seems Little Chen you are quite cautious. Alright then, if you won’t say, you won’t say. Wealth should not be flaunted, I understand this principle."

"However, that really is an amazing treasure. It actually made me dizzy for so long. If I’m not guessing wrong, it must be at least a Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact!"

The middle-aged man laughed heartily as he spoke.

Like cultivators, magical treasures also have rankings.

From low to high, they are broadly divided into three major ranks: Spiritual Artifacts, Divine Artifacts, and Holy Artifacts.

And within each major rank, there are four sub-ranks.

Low Grade, Middle Grade, High Grade, and Supreme Grade!

The higher the rank, the stronger the magical treasure’s power.

For Ancient Martial Cultivators, magical treasures are extremely important; a powerful magical treasure can turn the tide of a battle.

Two evenly matched individuals could potentially determine the victor due to a magical treasure.

Some may not be so powerful, yet with a heaven-defying magical treasure, they can contend with a stronger opponent in battle.

This illustrates the importance of magical treasures.

However, magical treasures are so rare that even one would be invaluable and hard to come by.

In the Mortal World, even a casual release of a Low Grade Spiritual Artifact could fetch an astronomical price at auction.

Even in the Ancient Martial World, magical treasures are not commonly seen.

Whoever owns a Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact is already terrifically impressive.

As for Divine Artifacts, they’re even rarer, like the feathers of a phoenix or the horn of a unicorn.

And those Holy Artifacts, they are only spoken of in legends, never seen by anyone.

Of course, there are even more powerful magical treasures beyond the Holy Artifacts.

Legend has it that when the ancient god Pangu opened the heavens, three primordial magical treasures were conceived and born amidst heaven and earth.

These three primordial magical treasures, born of the heavens and the earth, not by human hands, could harness the power of heaven and earth for one’s use, their might limitless.

It should be noted that no matter how strong a person is, even reaching Heaven Rank or above, they cannot contend with heaven and earth.

But these three primordial magical treasures can harness the power of heaven and earth, which shows their terrifying might.

Of course, these are all legends.

Compared to Holy Artifacts, these three primordial magical treasures are even more ethereal, never seen by anyone to this day.

Now, the middle-aged man had firmly concluded that the Soul Suppressing Coffin was a Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact, and he had good reason for his belief.

After all, if the Soul Suppressing Coffin were a Divine Artifact, he would probably be a corpse by now.

Besides, he did not believe that Chen Feng, a mere twenty-year-old young man, could possess a Divine Artifact; that would be too exaggerated.

What the middle-aged man did not know, however, was that the Tianqi Holy Pearl within Chen Feng’s body was, at its peak, an existence even more powerful than a Divine Artifact.

Of course, this was something the middle-aged man could never know.

"Senior flatters me!"

Chen Feng replied with a modest smile.

"Not at all, it seems General Chen truly cherishes his grandson. To even allow you the use of such a Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact, it’s clear that his love for you has never diminished!"

The middle-aged man said while laughing.

He believed the Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact was given to Chen Feng by Chen Weiguo.

After all, if it were just up to Chen Feng, let alone a Supreme Grade Spiritual Artifact, even a Low Grade Spiritual Artifact would be beyond his reach.

It was not that he looked down on Chen Feng, but magical treasures were truly too scarce.

What the middle-aged man didn’t know was that the Soul Suppressing Coffin was indeed acquired by Chen Feng himself.

However, Chen Feng did not offer too much of an explanation.

He had been worried about what he would say if the middle-aged man asked where he got the treasure from.

Now, fortunately, the middle-aged man had provided him with a perfect excuse.

So why would Chen Feng bother to explain? That would be needless trouble.

Chen Feng smiled faintly and held his fists towards the middle-aged man, saying, "I was somewhat offensive just now; please come to my home and sit for a while, have a cup of tea and rest."

"Sure, that sounds good!"

The middle-aged man did not refuse again because he also wanted to talk more with Chen Feng.

Subsequently, the two returned to Chen Feng’s villa.

After sitting down on the living room sofa, Lori, upon learning that a guest had come, quickly came down to pour tea for the middle-aged man, showing none of the airs that her position as a young lady might dictate.

The middle-aged man looked at the stunningly attractive Lori, then at the sumptuously decorated villa, and joked with a smile, "Little Chen, you are living a life fit for an Immortal; dwelling in a splendid mansion like this, with beauty hidden in your home—if I were you, I’d probably wake up smiling even from my dreams!"

"Senior is too kind!"

Chen Feng smiled modestly, then looked at the middle-aged man and asked, "I was preoccupied with sparring with the senior and have yet to ask for your esteemed name."

"Ah, we were too eager to spar earlier, and I have not had the chance to introduce myself!"

The middle-aged man smiled and then said, "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Xu Long, you can call me Brother Xu in the future, no need for that ’senior’ talk, it makes me sound so old, and I am still very young!"

"Brother Xu!"

Chen Feng greeted with a bow and smiled.
