Chapter 314: You Can Try It
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
The Phoenix’s Cry Fruit had many medicinal effects, one of which was purifying obsession!
As for the person in front who was the embodiment of countless dark creatures’ obsessions, if he wanted to completely control these obsessions, he could only consume the Phoenix’s Cry Fruit or other saint-level divine medicine to slowly refine the obsessions within his body.
This was also the source of Su Chen’s confidence. Saint-level spiritual herbs… Were what he lacked least!
Long Wu stared at Su Chen, mouth agape. It had to be said that Su Chen’s audacity was extraordinary! He actually dared to broker such a deal with a Great Emperor Realm expert. Who would dare believe it if this got out?
“This item could only spare the life of one of you two!” The illusory figure gazed at the Phoenix’s Cry Fruit in Su Chen’s hand with fiery eyes as he spoke in a deep voice. His tone brooked no argument.
At this moment, he was more akin to the personification of the Heavenly Dao’s laws, as though a single word from him could decree life or death!
“No, no, no…” However, Su Chen shook his head slightly, looking at the figure with a smile. “I think there may be some misunderstanding. What I mean is, that I want to use this item to exchange for those Black Blood Stones! Those Black Blood Stones deep within the Demon Slaying Altar! As an incarnation of obsessions, you shouldn’t have use for such a thing. So why not give me all the Black Blood Stones, and I’ll give you this Phoenix’s Cry Fruit? What do you think, Senior?”
As soon as he spoke, Long Wu looked upon her master in shock. She really hadn’t expected her master to be so audacious. The other party had already been given them a chance, so why not just go along with the other’s wishes?
Yet Su Chen instead talked of conditions with the opposite party. One had to know that the other party was a Great Emperor Realm powerhouse! Even if he was just an incarnation of obsessions, he was not someone they could provoke. If he went all out, he could definitely slay them.
Of the two of them, only she was at the Saint King Realm, certainly no match whatsoever. Only a living great emperor could suppress such a foe. Yet Su Chen insisted on bargaining at this time. This was just asking for trouble.
The Great Emperor Realm incarnation of obsessions stared at Su Chen without a word.
The Black Blood Stones’ main function was strengthening one’s physical strength, bringing one’s flesh to an undying, indestructible state, even…allowing one to be reborn from a single drop of blood.
But for those of mere obsessions or divine soul, the stones would be useless. After all, the Black Blood Stones had no effect on increasing divine souls.
“You are not qualified to negotiate with me! As long as 1 kill you, your belongings will still be mine.”
In the distance, black fog shrouded the land. That incarnation of obsessions seemed to stand tall and proud at the apex of the heavens, striking fear in all who beheld him. The black mist surged into the Demon Slaying Altar like a sea of clouds. Even Saint Realm powerhouses felt a little short of breath.
He showed no signs of making a move. Yet with but a single sentence, he managed to astonish the world.
Su Chen estimated that a powerhouse like him could slay a Saint Realm expert with a mere glance. He believed what had just been said. Yet he would not allow himself to be so easily frightened.
“You’re welcome to try. Whether in the Demon Slaying Altar or the outside world, divine medicines are priceless. Aside from me, no one else will trade such things with you. And…if I’m not mistaken, you’re unable to leave and can only remain within the confines of the Demon Slaying Altar.”
Su Chen was not panicked in the slightest. When facing such a terrifying existence, he did not seem to feel any pressure. As his voice fell, another divine medicine appeared in his hand.
Two divine medicines now sat in the palm of one man. Accompanying their emergence, spiritual tides surged within a several hundred-mile radius. The divine medicines shone with dazzling radiance. Even within the Demon Slaying Altar, they were extremely eye-catching.
The shadowy figure could not help but gaze upon the divine medicines in Su Chen’s hands. A single spiritual herb alone might not be much to him. But two would be different.
Moreover, in his view, it was not impossible for Su Chen to produce two spiritual herbs. But any more than that would surely be out of the question. Because divine medicines were far too valuable. Even average saint-level forces would be hard-pressed to match Su Chen’s staggering wealth.
“Throughout history, never has a Quasi-Saint Realm cultivator bargained with a great emperor!” The illusion stared at the spiritual herbs in Su Chen’s hand with blazing eyes as he spoke in a deep voice.
His eyes seemed able to swallow endless mountains and rivers. As his voice fell, his massive hand reached out to grasp Su Chen. It was a colossal inky black hand, with murky fog coiling about it. Within his palm, even suns, moons, and stars flowed, enveloping the entire Demon Slaying Altar. The mighty giant hand seemed able to eclipse the heavens themselves. Beneath it, even someone as strong as Long Wu felt as tiny as an ant. She felt unable to even break a single finger, only able to watch helplessly as the huge palm descended.
“Some rules are meant to be broken. It’s a pity you failed to realize this. Since you aim to take by force, then try it!”
Su Chen watched the looming giant hand, expression unchanged, still perfectly composed. Yet he could not help but increase his strength somewhat, fingers exerting the slightest force.
Buzz…
The two spiritual herbs in Su Chen’s hands were tightly clenched, visibly beginning to deform. If Su Chen applied just a bit more strength, the two herbs would turn to dust in an instant.
“You…” Seeing this, the illusion’s tone shifted, clearly surprised as he said, “You’ve comprehended the Power of Laws?”
The enormous black hand finally halted above Su Chen’s head. In the next moment, the massive palm vanished without a trace, as if it had never been there at all. The imposing figure stared at Su Chen with blazing eyes.
For an ordinary Quasi-Saint Realm expert, there would be no resisting that strike. Yet Su Chen was different. Not only was he not restricted, but he could even employ certain methods.
This signified…he had attained some insights into the Dao of Laws. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to block that strike. However, just what laws Su Chen had comprehended, he could not yet ascertain.
Presently, knowing Su Chen had dabbled in some Power of Laws meant…he might well become a great emperor in the future! To a certain degree, Su Chen did now have the qualifications to bargain with him!
“There’s no need to fret over that. You just need to know that 1 currently have the right to negotiate terms with you! Shall we have a proper discussion now?” Su Chen chuckled lightly.
The two spiritual herbs in his hands still radiated divine brilliance. Dense medicinal fragrance assailed the senses, rousing heaven and earth’s spiritual energy.
Seeing the black palm vanish, Su Chen’s own strength gradually weakened. He simply watched the imposing figure quietly..
