“I always keep my word. Once a deal is agreed upon, there’s no need for such tricks.”
Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable reprimanded the man in black.
The man in black took a deep breath; the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable had actually rejected a condition that was even more favorable for them.
At Mount Taihua, Yuntai Peak, within the space of the Mountain and Rivers Chart, Lu Changsheng was still generously rewarding the daughter of the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable.
Dantai Meng was not much aggrieved, but instead, she received an abundance of treasured items.
“Take the treasure I give you, or beware the rules of my sect.”
Lu Changsheng pretended to hit Dantai Meng’s buttocks, forcing her to accept the treasure with an embarrassed expression.
Where in the world would you find someone who desperately gives away items, especially rare treasures?
Could this be his peculiar habit?
Dantai Meng had no choice but to explain it that way.
[Ding! You gifted your disciple Dantai Meng with the nineteenth rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Fire Qilin Blood,” and the mentor reward return has failed.]
[Ding! You gifted your disciple Dantai Meng with the nineteenth rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Fire Qilin Blood,” and the mentor reward return has failed.]
…
“Strange, why can’t it trigger a return?”
Lu Changsheng sent out seventy-seven drops of Fire Qilin Blood, all attempts ended in failure, not obtaining the desired treasure.
This was the last drop of Fire Qilin Blood that Lu Changsheng possessed.
In this mad mentoring process, Dantai Meng benefited greatly. The Fire Qilin Blood could neutralize the evil spirit in her Demon Body, which made it easier to avoid deviating during her cultivation of demonic arts.
The demonic true Qi in Dantai Meng also merged with the power of the Fire Qilin.
“This fellow, she absorbs Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures with extreme efficiency, and during transmission of powers, it requires to go against the flow of the meridians. The daughter of the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable, indeed remarkable.”
Lu Changsheng remembered that Dantai Meng’s constitution was the “Devouring Heavenly Demon Body” and “Rebellious Meridians,” her talents were extremely defying, and if cultivated well, she might become the next Great Demon Head on the level of the Hallucinatory Dark Demon Venerable.
From how perfectly Dantai Meng absorbed the spiritual essence in the Fire Qilin Blood, one could see the power of the Devouring Heavenly Demon Body.
“The Fire Qilin Blood is all used up; I can only start by gifting Fire Spirit Blood Ganoderma.”
Lu Changsheng gifted Dantai Meng with the fifteenth rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Fire Spirit Blood Ganoderma.”
[Ding! You gifted your disciple Dantai Meng the fifteenth rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Fire Spirit Blood Ganoderma,” and the mentor reward return failed.]
[Ding! You gifted your disciple Dantai Meng the fifteenth rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Fire Spirit Blood Ganoderma,” and the mentor reward return failed.]
…
[Ding! You gifted your disciple Dantai Meng the fifteenth rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Fire Spirit Blood Ganoderma,” and received a billion-fold mentor reward return: a nineteenth rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Fire Qilin Blood.”]
Finally, another drop of Fire Qilin Blood was obtained.
Lu Changsheng, not believing in curses, once again sent out the Fire Qilin Blood.
[Ding! You gifted your disciple Dantai Meng the nineteenth rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Fire Qilin Blood,” and received a million-fold mentor reward return: the twenty-first rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure “Blood of the Demon God.”]
Finally, a treasure has appeared!
Lu Changsheng was thrilled; this time, it was a completely new twenty-first rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure!
A drop of golden Demon Blood, suspended in the air, causing the surrounding space to collapse, returning to chaos.
Just a drop of Demon Blood, yet its weight was like myriad jun.
Demon Gods, ancient powerhouses of the Demon Race, it took several ancient Human Emperors their utmost efforts to slay it, and the price paid was the fall of the majority of ancient Human Emperors.
Its strength, needless to say.
The ancient super Sword Cultivator Sect—Heavenly Sect, was precisely bloodbathed by the Demon God’s Blood.
Just a single drop of Demon Blood is already a twenty-first rank Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure.
Although the Demon God was a great enemy of the ancient Human Race, the Demon God’s Blood is precious. Used for Body Tempering, it makes the body incredibly stronger, and it can also be used to refine twenty-first-grade, even twenty-second-grade top-grade divine pills.
“Dantai Meng, I owe you big this time.”
Having used up his quota for mentoring today, Lu Changsheng decided to return and use the Demon God’s Blood for Body Tempering, cultivating the “Eternal Indestructible Art.”
With the Blood of the Demon God as the main ingredient in Body Tempering, the “Eternal Indestructible Art” could be refined to at least the eighth level.
“Thanks to me?”
Dantai Meng was utterly dumbfounded.
In the Three Realms, how could there be someone who gives treasures to others for no reason and even thanks them?
Could it be that Lu Changsheng’s brain was damaged in the fight with the Ancient Helian Clan?
Lu Changsheng left the Mountain and Rivers Chart space and began to refine the Body Tempering Elixir.
Lu Changsheng sacrificed the Human Sovereign Cauldron, using it directly as a Medicine Cauldron.
The Human Sovereign Cauldron was a Magical Treasure of Qing Emperor, one of the ancient Human Emperors. Although Lu Changsheng couldn’t refine it, using it for concocting medicine should be no problem, right?
Ordinary Medicine Cauldrons can’t withstand the imposing pressure of Demon God’s Blood, only the Human Sovereign Cauldron can.
“…”
The Human Sovereign Cauldron shook as if in protest, as it was used by Qing Emperor to suppress Evil Spirits, and now Lu Changsheng was using it for concocting medicine!
Lu Changsheng ignored the spirit of the cauldron’s protest; it was just for concocting medicine, not a big deal.
Lu Changsheng used his True Qi to transform into Ziwei Celestial Flame, mixed with Qing Emperor True Qi, attempting to refine the Demon God’s Blood.
Lu Changsheng refined for three days and three nights, yet the Demon God’s Blood was still congealed together, not refined at all.
“Demon God’s Blood is truly domineering; it’s just a drop of demon blood, and I’m already an eighth rank Divine King practicing the Ziwei Celestial Flame True Art, which can transform Qi into fire, yet I still can’t refine it. At this rate, even ten thousand years from now, I will be helpless against this drop of Demon God’s Blood.”
Lu Changsheng, having acquired such a Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures as the Demon God’s Blood, was helpless against it and could only feel troubled.
The Human Sovereign Cauldron seemed to sense Lu Changsheng’s predicament and thus a Desolate Ancient aura spread out. This ancient force disrupted the structure of the Demon God’s Blood, turning one drop into several hundred smaller droplets, which merged with other Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to form one spirit liquid.
“You really are good to me.”
Lu Changsheng was overjoyed; the Human Sovereign Cauldron with a sentient spirit seemed quite good, actively alleviating its master’s concerns.
With the help of the Human Sovereign Cauldron, it took Lu Changsheng three months to completely refine the Demon God’s Blood and obtain a cauldron of supreme quality Body Tempering Elixir.
The Body Tempering Elixir emitted an astonishing medicinal power, far superior to the elixirs that Lu Changsheng had previously concocted.
Unable to wait any longer, Lu Changsheng stripped off his clothes and jumped directly into the Human Sovereign Cauldron to temper his body, following the Mnemonic Verse of the Eternal Indestructible Art, devouring the medicinal power of the Body Tempering Elixir and tempering his physique.
“…”
The spirit of the Human Sovereign Cauldron was speechless, wondering how this new master could be so unconventional.
So, he’s using the majestic Human Sovereign Cauldron as a bathtub, is that it?
With the Demon God’s Blood as the main ingredient, the Body Tempering Elixir showed an extremely astonishing effect, and the Eternal Indestructible Art easily broke through the eighth layer, advancing towards the ninth layer!
The Eternal Indestructible Art has only ten layers; at this rate, this Body Tempering Art will soon achieve Great Perfection!
While Lu Changsheng was tempering his body, Dantai Meng was also absorbing the vital essences of Fire Qilin Blood within the Mountain and Rivers Chart space.
“Strange, why hasn’t he come to the Mountain and Rivers Chart to give me things anymore?”
It’s been three months since Lu Changsheng last visited, and Dantai Meng was unaccustomed to his absence.
“I know, he must have run out of things to give. He’s rich, but surely he can’t keep giving me treasures forever, right?”
Dantai Meng could only think in this way.
Being a hostage of Lu Changsheng, she was treated no differently from a distinguished guest, living quite comfortably.
In the Body Tempering Pool, Lu Changsheng’s body was being torn apart by massive medicinal power and then reconstituted, becoming increasingly powerful.
Immense surges of medicinal power flowed into Lu Changsheng’s body, absorbed by every cell, and underwent rebirth after rebirth.
The more powerful Lu Changsheng’s physique became, the more terrifying the imposing pressure he emitted; the entire Yuntai Peak was trembling.
Princess Yao Yusheng and Su Yun, Family Head of the Ancient Su Family, were enjoying tea and appreciating flowers when Yuntai Peak suddenly shook, startling them both.
“It seems Lu has again cultivated some new technique and gained some insight.”
Having lived on Yuntai Peak for a long time, Su Yun was no longer surprised.
“He truly is a remarkable person.”
The Princess was pleased to have met the Family Head of the Ancient Su Family here.
Yuntai Peak, inhabited by the descendants of the Dragon Empress, the Candle Dragon Clan, and the descendants of the Ancient Xiao Family, among others, was beyond the Princess’s expectations.
“Eternal Indestructible Art ninth layer, achieved!”
Lu Changsheng, using the Demon God’s Blood, consecutively broke through two major realms of the Eternal Indestructible Art, advancing towards the tenth layer.
The ninth layer, where his physique was already comparable to a Third Grade Taoist Instrument, and if he achieved Great Perfection, it could match a Second Grade Taoist Instrument.
