Elven cultivators

"Azure Waves".

Zieg suddenly spoke.

"We won't divide the spoils this time."

"That's right." Brock nodded repeatedly.

The fact that we were able to take down five governors this time was almost entirely due to Canglan's efforts. The two of them barely contributed anything, so how could they possibly share the spoils?

Anton glanced at the two of them, and without any pretense, nodded slightly.

"Thank you very much."

Zieg and Brock both smiled.

For them, giving up these spoils and befriending Canglan was a win-win situation.

Based on the strength that Canglan has displayed today, there is probably no one below the legendary level in the entire Eldron Plains who can rival him.

Such a person is almost certain to become a legend in the future.

Being able to establish a good relationship with such a powerful figure beforehand is more valuable than any rare resource.

"We shouldn't stay here any longer. Dragon City will probably discover something's wrong soon. Let's get out of here."

Zig's smile faded, and he said in a deep voice.

Anton nodded, then turned and collected all the dragonborn corpses on the ground.

Zig and Brock saw this and, although somewhat puzzled, wisely refrained from asking further questions.

The three then left together.

……

Silvermoon Forest, Treehouse.

The soft light from the light source stone illuminated the room.

Anton sat cross-legged in front of the long table, with five dimensional rings and more than ten dimensional bags spread out in front of him.

This is the spoils he seized from the five governors and several dragonborn officers, along with some resources loaded in the wagons of the convoy; it's all here.

Anton began to count each item one by one.

It took him almost half an hour to finish organizing everything.

It must be said that the gains this time far exceeded those before.

The resources that Kreisor Dragon City handed over to the Dragon Court were indeed rare and valuable items.

The lowest value among them is equivalent to the main material level of Foundation Building Pill.

A significant portion of them are even of the main ingredient level for Condensation Pills.

One can't help but admire the immense wealth and power of Cresso Dragon City.

What made Anton happiest was that he found what he had been longing for inside—a rare material that could serve as the main material for earth elements!

It was a plant sealed in a transparent crystal box.

The entire plant is no bigger than the palm of your hand, with roots as thin as hair, silvery-white in color, deeply embedded in the nutrient substrate at the bottom of the box.

The stem is straight, and the leaves are slender and needle-like, dark green, and covered with a layer of fine hairs.

Its flowers are the most eye-catching feature.

The flowers are only the size of a fingernail, with translucent pale purple petals that are as thin as cicada wings and have slightly curled edges.

Several thin, dark brown stamens, as fine as hair, extend upwards from the flower's center, each tipped with a tiny pollen sac that continuously releases extremely small, luminous spores.

The spores were pale gold, so tiny they were almost invisible to the naked eye. They floated around the flowers, slowly drifting away and then slowly sinking, like miniature stardust falling.

This is the Earth Star Dust Flower!

A rare magical plant that grows deep within the earth's vein nodes.

Its growing environment is extremely demanding.

There must be ley lines, and the energy concentration of the ley lines must reach a certain level.

Moreover, since the Earth Star Dust Flower must feed on "earth vein energy," it will deeply penetrate the earth vein nodes to continuously absorb earth vein energy.

Once the energy concentration of the leyline node changes drastically, or the direction of the leyline flow changes, the Earth Star Dust Flower will wither and die in a very short time.

It is precisely because of its demanding requirements for the growing environment that the Earth Star Dust Flower is extremely rare.

Throughout the entire Eldron Plains, there are only a handful of known leyline nodes, and each one is firmly controlled by the city of Kreisor.

Apart from Kreisor Dragon City, no other faction on the Eldron Plains could obtain Stardust Flowers.

"If we could find a ley line node, we could build a spirit plant garden and cultivate rare plants like the Earth Dust Flower ourselves, without having to search for them everywhere."

Anton looked at the Earth Star Dust Flower in the crystal box, becoming more and more satisfied.

This magical plant contains extremely pure earth-elemental life energy.

It is perfectly suited to be used as the main earth element material for Condensing Elixir.

"Now, we have all five main ingredients."

Anton's face lit up with barely suppressed joy.

Dragon Flame Pearl (Fire), Void Silver Crystal (Metal), Earth Star Dust Flower (Earth), Life Source Crystal (Water), Eternal Tree Heart (Wood).

After decades of effort, all five main materials have finally been acquired.

All that's left is the balance of Yin and Yang.

"The Moon Essence Elixir problem has been solved; it's only a matter of time before we gather enough."

"Now all that's missing is the Yang energy."

Anton shook his head, not dwelling on the issue too much, and carefully put away the organized materials.

These are all valuable resources for refining high-level pills, magical artifacts, and high-level Dao soldiers in the future.

Accumulating materials is a good habit.

If it weren't for the materials he had painstakingly accumulated over time, he wouldn't have been able to refine all the Heavenly Thunder Banners and Five Thunder Jade Talismans within half a month to set up the Nine Heavens Thunder Suppressing Yuan Formation.

In the future, when we want to set up more powerful formations, we will need to use more materials of higher quality.

Anton had always had the idea of ​​setting up a "mountain-protecting formation" based on the Tree of Eternity or the Fountain of Life.

However, a large-scale formation of this size not only requires an extremely large number of low-level materials, but also a large amount of precious resources.

At this stage, neither he nor the Silvermoon Clan has that ability.

To achieve your goal, you either need to slowly accumulate materials or get lucky and acquire a large amount of resources at once.

"A large amount of resources...?"

Anton seemed to be deep in thought.

The two methods he can think of right now are to breach Dragon City and to breach the Mind Flayer City-State.

The resources that the former can obtain, both in quantity and quality, are likely to far exceed those of the latter.

Despite the fact that Kreisor Dragon City pays a considerable amount of resources to the Dragon Court every year, it has ruled the Eldron Plains for thousands of years, controlling countless resources and exploiting various forces for thousands of years. The resources it has accumulated are probably astronomical.

However, the difficulty of conquering Cressor Dragon City far exceeds that of the Mind Flayer City-State.

Despite having just eliminated five governors, there are still seven governors in Kreisor Dragon City.

This also includes Orion, the highest ruler whose fame has resounded throughout the Eldron Plains for thousands of years.

Moreover, given the profound foundation of Kreisor Dragon City, it must still possess other trump cards.

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse, and the current city of Cresollong is far from being a "starved camel".

In comparison, the Mind Flayer city-states have fewer resources, but they are also easier to deal with.

"Perhaps we should consider how to deal with the Mind Flayer City-State."

Anton made up his mind, gathered his scattered thoughts, and focused his attention back on the matter at hand.

After putting away the materials, he continued to count his spoils.

Next up are magical items.

There are more than thirty items in total.

Most of them were seized from the five governors, and a small portion was found on the dragonborn officers in the convoy.

This includes a total of twelve extraordinary magical items.

Five of them are armor.

Unfortunately, two of them were completely destroyed in the battle.

The other three items were also severely damaged, with cracks and scorch marks covering their surfaces, and their energy fluctuations were weak. They require major repairs before they can be used again.

There was no other way; his opponent was at the peak of the Gold rank, so Anton couldn't hold back during the fight, nor could he worry about the condition of the spoils.

In addition, there are five extraordinary magical weapons.

These five weapons are relatively intact, with only minor damage, and can be used again after a little repair.

The last two extraordinary magical items, the first of which is a ring.

The ring setting is dark silver, and a pale blue gemstone is set in the face of the ring. Inside the gemstone, there is a faint vortex that seems to be slowly rotating.

It was the same magical item that Wood had used to 'slow down' Anton.

Anton examined it and found that it was a magical item with the wind element attribute. The effect was also very simple: it would put a "slowing aura" on the target.

The specific deceleration range depends on the strength of the target.

However, based on Anton's previous personal experience, this magical item also has a very good effect on the Gold Peak level, making it extremely practical.

The second item was a milky-white amulet the size of an egg.

The amulet is oval-shaped with a smooth surface, without any patterns or decorations. The material feels like the bone of some kind of creature, warm and smooth like jade.

Anton tried to inject a trace of true energy to activate the talisman.

The next instant, a thin layer of mist appeared around him, enveloping him completely.

The fog wasn't thick, but it was extremely eerie. Not only could it blur vision, but it could also absorb smells, sounds, and magical fluctuations.

Anton scanned himself with his divine sense and found that even his divine sense perception was interfered with to some extent, making it impossible to clearly perceive the situation inside the fog.

He quickly realized what was going on.

The reason those governors were able to conceal their presence and prevent him from detecting them beforehand was because of this.

"nice one."

Anton smiled slightly.

This amulet's power can play an unexpected role in certain situations.

It's even more practical than that slowing ring.

After a moment's thought, Anton finally decided to keep the amulet and named it the "Mist Concealment Amulet".

As for the remaining extraordinary magical items, he planned to break them all down into materials for later use in weapon crafting.

Including that ring that can slow you down.

Although it is very practical, with the speed of sword escape, there is no need to use that ring at all.

As long as Anton continues to deepen his mastery of the Splitting Light Method and improves the quality of his sword pellets, he can continuously increase his speed.

In a sense, this is also the best way to slow down the enemy.

As for the remaining luminous magical items, they will be modified and handed over to the clan for disposal, as is the usual practice.

After counting all the spoils, Anton breathed a sigh of relief, his face beaming with undisguised joy.

This time, the harvest far exceeded his expectations.

Not only did they gather all five main materials, but they also acquired a large number of rare materials and magical items.

This greatly enriched his material database.

"And the corpse of the Dragonborn."

Anton removed the dragonborn corpses one by one and manipulated the sword pellets to absorb them.

After all the dragonborn corpses were absorbed, the dragon pattern covering the surface of the sword pellet had increased to about three-quarters.
