CHAPTER 1048: CHAPTER 1049: BLOOD ESSENCE OF THE EMPEROR-RANKED DEMON GOD

The Ancient Demon Continent is a land where demons reign supreme. The three major kingdoms are all ruled by the Demon Emperor, and numerous formidable beings within it are demon gods.

Spiritual artifacts capable of restraining demon beasts are definitely sought after, especially heavenly-grade ones, which are priceless.

Chu Fengmian listened for a while and quickly lost interest.

Although Chu Fengmian was a Sword Cultivator, he didn’t lack Spirit Swords. Whether it was the Ancestor Dragon Supreme Sword or the Giant Divine Sword, both were top-tier Spirit Swords in the world.

Moreover, Chu Fengmian had the Blood Slaughter Demon Sword. Although the snake-slaying sword was good, it was useless to Chu Fengmian.

Seeing that Chu Fengmian didn’t seem to care much, Wang Zhenliu felt a bit helpless.

This snake-slaying sword, it seemed that all the strong ones present would fight over it, but Chu Fengmian showed no interest.

Wang Zhenliu was a seasoned man; seeing Chu Fengmian’s lack of interest, he quickly changed the topic.

"The second treasure is the Mystic Herb, which can reconstruct a Martial Artist’s Spirit Vein, enough to fundamentally change a Martial Artist’s talent, usually for the better."

Wang Zhenliu spoke out.

"Although this treasure is useless to Mr. Chu, many strong ones want their descendants to have better talent, so they would spend considerable wealth to buy it."

Mystic Herb.

While not a Holy Medicine, the Mystic Herb is more valuable than one, able to nearly create a genius by reconstructing a Martial Artist’s Spirit Vein.

In the Nine Domains, Chu Fengmian had heard of the Mystic Herb; even the Sword Dao Master had once searched for it in Chu Fengmian’s past life.

Unfortunately, in the Nine Domains, the Mystic Herb had long been extinct, so Chu Fengmian had only heard of it.

Unexpectedly, it still existed in the Ancient Demon Continent, which surprised Chu Fengmian.

Yet for Chu Fengmian, it meant nothing; possessing Divine Veins, he couldn’t further advance, and the Mystic Herb only benefits Martial Artists below a Saint.

Chu Fengmian was about to speak, wanting Wang Zhenliu to continue, when he saw Liu Yi’s eager eyes beside him.

Those eyes made Chu Fengmian recall his past life, although then, he was more desperate than Liu Yi now.

At least Liu Yi had one Spirit Vein, but Chu Fengmian couldn’t even form one Spirit Vein back then.

"Do you want this Mystic Herb?"

Chu Fengmian looked at Liu Yi and suddenly spoke.

"Ah, no, senior..."

Before Liu Yi could speak, Chu Fengmian continued talking to himself.

"Alright, I’ll buy this Mystic Herb for you."

Liu Yi had never asked Chu Fengmian for anything before, considering she saved him once.

Without repayment, Chu Fengmian felt uneasy.

"Senior, the Mystic Herb is precious, and I am unworthy to accept it."

Liu Yi said hesitantly.

She had heard of the Mystic Herb, but its price was astronomical for her.

Impossible to afford in her lifetime.

"No worry, consider it a reward for helping me these days; it won’t cost many Spirit Stones anyway."

Chu Fengmian spoke casually.

"No need to say more."

"Okay."

Hearing this, Liu Yi could only stay silent and say nothing more.

The Mystic Herb didn’t cost many Spirit Stones.

Beside them, Wang Zhenliu’s face twisted upon hearing Chu Fengmian’s words.

If outsiders heard, they might curse Chu Fengmian to death, considering many Sects bankrupted seeking the Mystic Herb.

But watching Chu Fengmian, Wang Zhenliu felt helpless; true, with Chu Fengmian’s wealth, the Mystic Herb was trivial.

"What’s the third treasure?"

The snake-slaying sword and Mystic Herb, two treasures, had little use for Chu Fengmian, disappointing him.

Chu Fengmian hoped the third treasure would be helpful.

"The third treasure is a drop of blood essence, a drop of Emperor Demon God’s blood essence."

Wang Zhenliu spoke, offering no further explanation.

A drop of Emperor Demon God’s blood essence needed no explanation.

All sufficiently powerful Martial Artists knew its weight as a treasure.

Among numerous auction items, this Emperor Demon God’s blood essence deserved the final position.

"Emperor’s Blood Essence! Emperor Demon God’s Blood Essence!"

Upon hearing Wang Zhenliu, Chu Fengmian’s expression finally showed shock.

For Chu Fengmian, consuming blood essence was a means of enhancing strength, especially since he housed a Divine Tree within.

This Divine Tree needed blood essence for growth.

Even a quasi-Emperor’s blood essence, a single drop, surpassed countless supreme ancestor blood essences.

Let alone an actual drop of Emperor’s Blood Essence.

For Chu Fengmian, it held great use; properly used, it could transform his strength tremendously.

"Good, good, being in the Ancient Demon Continent truly is a fortune!"

Chu Fengmian thought, thrilled.

In the Nine Domains, finding Emperor’s Blood Essence was impossible, even unheard of, much less Emperor Demon God’s blood essence.

With Chu Fengmian’s bloodline, Demon God’s Blood Essence suited him more than Martial Artist’s.

"I must obtain this drop of Emperor Demon God’s blood essence!"

Chu Fengmian looked determined, resolved to get the Demon God Emperor’s Blood Essence, regardless of competition.

The auction wouldn’t start for a while, and Chu Fengmian felt impatient.

"Shopkeeper Wang, I’ll rest first; call me once the auction starts."

Chu Fengmian calmed his emotions.

There’s still time before the auction.

The Spiritual Medicines and Spirit Pills Chu Fengmian bought from the Ancient Snake Commerce could be directly consumed to restore his strength.

"Alright."

Wang Zhenliu nodded, watching Chu Fengmian close his eyes.

Meanwhile, Chu Fengmian discreetly set numerous restrictions around to awaken immediately if anyone approached, ensuring safety.

After setting everything up, Chu Fengmian quietly took several Spirit Pills from his Space Ring, consumed them, and swallowed them directly.

Chu Fengmian activated the Battle Dragon Technique to absorb all the Spirit Pill’s medicinal power, starting to restore his Divine Veins.

The ten thousand drops of ancient battle dragon blood essence within Chu Fengmian remained undamaged; only his Divine Veins had shattered, temporarily blocking his Spiritual Power from functioning at full capacity.

Once restored, the other injuries on Chu Fengmian’s body could quickly heal.
