Chapter 67 – Stone of True Blood
Blood Abyss Secret Realm.
On a blood-red cliff, Lou Jiaxin was quietly hiding in a rock crevice.
Below the cliff was a valley.
But the one in this valley was filled with a thick blood mist.
The blood mist here was denser than any other location in the Blood Abyss Mysterious Realm.
“Hoo~loo……”
Suddenly, a loud whirring sound came out from the depths of the valley.
It was just that Lou Jiaxin was unmoved.
He had stayed here for too long, and had long since become very familiar with that King of Blood Beasts in the depths of the valley.
“Chirp!”
Suddenly, a bird chirping sound came from the distance.
Lou Jiaxin frowned as he glanced into the valley below the cliff, and then he performed a light skill and left the rock crevice without a sound.
“What’s going on?”
Within a short time, Lou Jiaxin came down from the cliff to a place a mile away.
“Brother Lou, something happened to Sha!”
A martial artist saw Lou Jiaxin coming over and even opened his mouth.
“What happened to Sha Xingzhong?”
Lou Jiaxin’s heart jumped.
“Sha got into a conflict with a Chen Fan, and then ……”
The martial artist who came to report the situation told the story one by one.
“Rubbish!”
When Lou Jiaxin heard that Chen Fan had actually taken away all the blood crystals of Sha Xingzhong and the others, a look of anger appeared on his face.
Sha Xingzhong’s death was just that.
But those blood crystals were what he had prepared in order to draw out that king of blood beasts deep in the valley.
“Go tell Chen Fan that I can do without the Yuan Stones he got, and I can even ignore the fact that he killed Sha Xingzhong, but those blood crystals, he must return them!”
Lou Jiaxin said in a deep voice.
“Brother Lou, that Chen Fan is a martial artist from the Blood Abyss Continent ……”
The martial artist who had come to report the news, reminded.
A martial artist who came from the Blood Abyss Continent meant that he had not yet embodied a spirit root.
Once Chen Fan left the Blood Abyss Mysterious Realm in the future and had embodied a middle to upper grade spirit root, he would most likely be taken under a certain Immortal Cultivation Sect.
There was nothing for them to target Chen Fan now, but when they left the Blood Abyss Mysterious Realm, things might be about to see a reversal.
“Blood Abyss Continent ……”
Lou Jiaxin took a deep breath, “All people awakening their spiritual roots are randomized, how can it be that easy to awaken a medium to high quality spiritual root?”
He himself was the example.
Spiritual root quality had many grades such as lower, middle, upper, and extreme.
The spiritual root that he had contained after breaking through to the Innate Realm was a lower-grade spiritual root, and it belonged to the lower class of all lower-grade spiritual roots.
It was only because of his high martial talent and the purity of the innate true qi he cultivated that his original inferior lower grade spiritual root was elevated to medium lower grade.
However, such a qualification was still not enough to allow him to enter an Immortal Cultivation Sect.
It was for this reason that he chose to enter the Blood Abyss Mysterious Realm to fight it out.
“Go!”
Lou Jiaxin said in a deep voice, “After you find Chen Fan, tell him that if he returns the blood crystals, count me as owing him a favor.”
“Good!”
The martial artist who had sent the letter heard this and sighed in relief, then he unfolded his stance and swept off into the distance.
He could help the Lou Clan’s new messenger.
But it was impossible for him to offend Chen Fan.
After all, the only reason why he followed the Lou Family New was because the Lou Family New occupied several good Yuan Stone mines and could supply him with a portion of Yuan Stones every month.
But now, there were only four months left before the Blood Abyss Mystic Realm closed.
“Sha Xingzhong ……”
Lou Jiaxin stood on the cliff and muttered a self-sentence.
Sha Xingzhong was a henchman he used very well.
Even its time in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, he started to follow him, and even gave his sister, to him.
But all of this was nothing compared to the things he wanted to obtain.
……
“Brother Chen, thanks a lot this time!”
In the stone house, Li Chaofeng rushed at Chen Fan and thanked him. “It’s just a small thing.”
Chen Fan waved his hand, “And this time, my harvest is not small.”
Saying that, he pointed at one of the cloth bags that he had placed on the ground.
Li Chaofeng’s face looked odd.
He then seemed to have thought of something and spoke, “However, Brother Chen, you killed Sha Xingzhong and obtained so many Blood Crystal Yuan Stones, you must be careful of the Lou Family’s new retaliation!”
“Lou Jiaxin?”
Chen Fan slightly raised his eyebrows.
He had already heard the name of Lou Jiaxin many times after he came to the Blood Abyss Mysterious Realm.
Yet, he had yet to meet this person even once.
“Lou Jiaxin had been very active in the first few years after he first came to the Blood Abyss Mysterious Realm, but in the last two years, he rarely showed up.”
“I’ve heard people say that he seems to be trying to hit on the True Blood Stone.”
“The Stone of True Blood?”
Chen Fan’s eyes narrowed.
In the Immortal Cultivation Manual he had obtained, there was an introduction about this item.
According to the introduction, every five years, a Stone of True Blood would be born in the Blood Abyss Mystic Realm.
This stone of true blood born from the Blood Abyss Mysterious Realm belonged to the naturally formed auxiliary exotic treasures, and after the body cultivators among the Immortal Cultivators got it, they could drastically accelerate to increase their cultivation speed.
Only after the birth of this object, there must be a king of blood beasts to guard.
When he knew about this item, he was ready to try to get it before leaving the secret realm.
However, he didn’t expect that the Lou Jiaxin, like himself, had also set his eyes on the Stone of True Blood.
“Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.”
Chen Fan nodded.
As he advanced his external skills to advance to Innate Perfection, Lou Jiaxin was just stronger than him, but not by much.
……
“We still have to continue looking for Yuan Beasts ……”
After Li Chaofeng left, Chen Fan sorted out all of his gains this time.
He had harvested more than six hundred blood crystals this time.
The Yuan Stones were a little less, but there were also more than a hundred.
As for Yuan Crystals, there were only two.
Therefore he would have to continue hunting Yuan Beasts next.
But even so, this time he was considered to have reaped a huge harvest.
……
“Making me hand over blood crystals?”
A few hours later, after Chen Fan had finished refining the Yuan Crystal that had just arrived, that new henchman of the Lou Family sought out the door.
“Go tell Lou Jiaxin that I don’t need his favor!”
Chen Fan said bluntly.
How was it possible for him to hand over something that was in his hands?
If Sha Xingzhong had come into conflict with him when Lou Jiaxin ran to stop him, there was nothing to say.
But now ……
Rubber Eating!
Although he had long ago gathered enough 100 blood crystals, the extra blood crystals he brought to the Immortal Cultivation World could be spent as money.
After saying that, he didn’t wait for its response and left the valley straight away.
……
“Snort!”
A Yuan Beast died in Chen Fan’s hands.
“I heard that Immortal Cultivators have storage equipment, when we leave the secret realm in the future, we must get one.”
Chen Fan put away the Yuan Crystals he had arrived at and put them into the gray cloth bag he was carrying.
The cloth bag in his hand was still the same ancient silk weaving cloth bag that he had gotten in the Qingyang County King’s treasure trove.
The hundreds of blood crystals and Yuan Stones he had obtained from killing Sha Xingzhong were all contained within it.
“It’s time to go back.”
Chen Fan sighed, with the death of this Yuan Beast in his hands, the magical vision that he had wished for had disappeared once again.
“Eh?”
Just after Chen Fan had sought a blood dragon scroll and returned to the valley, his gaze abruptly condensed.
