Chapter 1148: Sea of Effervescent Tranquility

As the ceremony continued below, the powerhouses discussed the opening of the Ancient Blessings, and what was required to do so. As they discussed the details, another person appeared on the spire balcony, walking towards Lilian.

Zuri smiled and greeted Lilian, the two having struck up quite a friendship in the last few weeks. They were both in their twenties, were both prodigious talents, and also had similar interests. 

"Here, take this," Zuri said as she opened her closed fist, revealing a spatial ring on the flat of her palm.

"What's this?" Lilian asked curiously, picking up the ring and sending her divine sense into it. Her eyes widened slightly as she saw the contents within, then she looked back at Zuri with a questioning expression.

Zuri smiled lightly, then explained. "When John and I entered this city, we placed a bet on at the largest auction house regarding his performance in the tournament. The spirit crystals within are John's winnings."
